OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
For the year ended 30 June 2016
CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
Strong customer, revenue and earnings growth in financial year 2016 reflected how well the nib Group is meeting
customer needs across the various markets in which we operate and with that, delivered solid returns for nib
shareholders. They are results consistent with the company’s performance since listing on the ASX in 2007.
I believe we have created a good balance between building upon nib’s traditional capabilities and strengths in
the private health insurance market and leveraging these to expand into new businesses and markets.
As will be observed from our operating and financial review, FY16 produced impressive revenue and earnings growth. Total Group
revenue was up 14.3% to $1.9 billion* and our underlying operating profit (UOP) up almost 50% to $132.0 million. Net Profit After
Tax (NPAT) improved by 22.0% to $91.8 million or 21.2 cents per share.
Our underlying financial performance for FY16 has allowed the Board to declare dividends totalling 14.75 cents per share
(fully franked). This represents a payout ratio of 70% of after tax earnings in keeping with our stated policy range of 60% to 70%.
An evolving Group
nib’s mainstay Australian Residents Health Insurance (arhi) business produced a pleasing result in terms of both top line and
earnings growth. arhi contributed $94.5 million or 72% to Group UOP in FY16. We’re really proud that we’ve been able to grow
this business well ahead of the market average for so long.
Importantly, our adjacent businesses are steadily increasing their earnings contribution with a combined UOP of $37.5 million
in the year under review. These businesses demonstrate a preparedness to deploy existing Group capabilities and assets
to explore new market opportunities. They also reflect a disciplined approach to investment. The acquisition during FY16 of
specialist travel insurance provider World Nomads Group (WNG) and the medical insurance book of New Zealand insurer,
OnePath Life (NZ) Limited (OnePath NZ), were both aligned with our Group strategy and investment framework. Both acquisitions
have settled well under nib ownership and are performing in line with expectations.
Shareholders can expect continued and measured amplification of investment in arhi and adjacent businesses as
circumstances, our company strategy and our internal ‘hurdle’ rates of return dictate.
An evolving market
It will be evident from media coverage during the year that many consumers are aggrieved with private health insurance and
especially premium increases, out of pocket expenses and limited treatment coverage.
Some of the critique has justification and we recognise there must be ongoing improvement in the industry in meeting customer
needs, affordability and cost effectiveness. It’s the same recognition that explains the level of innovation for which nib has
become well known, our devotion to the principles of Net Promotor Score (a widely used customer satisfaction index) and a
general thrust towards reducing claims outlays without compromising customer outcomes. We also welcome many of the
reforms being mooted by Government.
There is an urgent need for industry regulatory reform and Mark’s report raises some real possibilities. I would however caution
Government on a couple of matters which have been subject to recent attention.
First has been the discussion around so called ‘junk policies’.
I’ve no doubt there is a need to better inform consumers about the level of coverage they purchase and nib supports proposed
initiatives in this direction. We do however, need to keep in mind the important role that product diversification and choice
have played in improving consumer sovereignty and, especially, attracting younger policyholders. More than anything else, it is
participation by younger people that makes premiums for everyone more affordable.
Second has been the discussion about premium increases and possibly regulating premium pricing based upon a maximum
return on invested capital.
In an efficient market, companies are rewarded for good performance with higher returns on invested capital. I don’t believe
we should ever upset this dynamic and it’s competition that should dictate market prices. With 34 players and the principle of
‘portability’ (which means a consumer can transfer insurer without any disadvantage) competition is hardly lacking in Australia.
Premiums are growing circa 5% to 6% per annum because that’s how much more we are spending on our healthcare per capita.
About half has been actual cost inflation (the correct comparison with CPI) and half utilisation growth (i.e. people using healthcare
services more often). The real underlying problem is we’re spending more than we should be (over servicing, avoidable hospital
admissions etc.) and that’s what the industry must tackle.
* Excludes non-recurring profit from sale of Newcastle office building.

nib holdings limitedAn evolving leadership team
Succession planning for both Executives and Non-Executive Directors (NED) is a priority for the Board. While we have great
confidence in the calibre of our current leadership, naturally we must prepare for a range of future circumstances and market
conditions.
We continue to be mindful of ensuring we meet our own tests for NEDs independence and maintaining an appropriate skills
mix. During the year we appointed Mr Donal O’Dwyer as a NED after conducting an extensive search through an independent
recruitment firm. Donal is a highly-experienced company director with extensive executive-level experience in the global sales
and marketing of healthcare products and services. The appointment of Donal follows the announcement in November last year
by Dr Annette Carruthers that she would not seek re-election as a NED.
I would like to take this opportunity to again sincerely thank and pay tribute to Annette for her 12 year contribution to the
company and shareholders. During her time she has overseen the transition of the business from a mutual to an ASX-listed
entity, the significant growth across Australia and expansion into new markets both domestic and international. I’m certain she
has much yet to contribute to the Australian corporate world.
I would like to thank everyone at nib for their efforts this year, including my fellow Directors and the Executive team. The success
of our business is reflected in the dedication, professionalism and quality of our people and their commitment to delivering
service excellence.

annual report 2016MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT
Another pleasing result in FY16 reflecting the strong execution of our business strategy across the Group. In just
about every part of the business we grew our customer base, market share and profitability. Group underlying
operating earnings increased an impressive 49.9% to $132.0 million and NPAT 22.0% to $91.8 million.
Our core arhi segment was once again a ‘star’ performer. Although the policyholder growth rate of 3.8% was slightly below our
sustainable growth rate target of 4% to 5%, we grew almost three times the industry average (1.3%). arhi also produced a very
solid UOP up 31.4% on FY15. The ‘above system’ organic growth and improved profitability is familiar but only ever achieved with
constant creativity, effort and investment. Deeply ingrained in our corporate culture is the belief that ongoing experimentation and
measured risk taking is crucial to improvement and keeping ahead of competitors.
Importantly, arhi achieved this growth in very ‘soft’ market conditions not made any easier by all the ‘trash talking’ in the media
about private health insurance (PHI). The diatribe is doing the Australian healthcare system a real disservice given we need the
private sector to play an even greater role in meeting our future healthcare needs. Every year we’re spending about 6% more
per capita on healthcare and our primary reliance on taxes to fund this spending is simply unsustainable given an ever increasing
dependency ratio of retirees to taxpayers.
That’s not to suggest there aren’t real opportunities to improve our PHI system and nobody is thinking and working harder
than nib on a better ‘deal’ for consumers and market efficiency. We’re especially excited about the possibilities in regulatory
reform. We do appreciate just how supportive current Commonwealth policy settings are for PHI and we certainly don’t look to
government to guarantee our future. But there are still obstacles to improved market efficiency such as the perverse system of
risk equalisation and the outrageous regulated over-pricing of prosthetic devices.
For several years, we’ve been very deliberately diversifying the business with a view to exploiting ‘economies of scope’ across
the Group and in order to mitigate earnings concentration risk in arhi. And our efforts haven’t been without considerable
progress. In FY16, ‘non-arhi’ earnings accounted for 28% of our Group UOP, compared to just over 18% in FY15 and a negligible
contribution just five years ago. These are the earnings derived from our international workers and students businesses, nib
New Zealand, our travel insurance business WNG and a collection of other smaller product lines such as life insurance. It’s a
strategy which is clearly working for us and we have an appetite for more within the disciplined investment framework we apply.
Perhaps our most exciting initiative in FY16 was to take our digital healthcare platform Whitecoat to another level. Sometimes
referred to as the ‘TripAdvisor’ for healthcare, Whitecoat is designed to help people make better choices about their behaviour,
treatment options and choice of doctor with the added convenience of search, booking and payments engines. As other digital
platforms are doing in other markets, Whitecoat is all about producing information in order to ‘level the playing field’ between the
sellers and consumers of healthcare.
With the technology in place, more than 40,000 registered clinical providers and 250,000 patient reviews Whitecoat is already
well-established. However, our recent announcement to form a joint venture with fellow health insurers Bupa and HBF will
significantly escalate participation and the ‘network effect’. Under the collaboration Whitecoat will have direct engagement with
around six million Australians.
I’d like to thank my Executive team, Board of Directors and everyone in the business for their efforts and contribution throughout
FY16. We remain very ambitious for the nib Group.

nib continues to perform strongly against the backdrop of weak industry growth and retail conditions. During the
year, we added more than 19,500 policyholders at a growth rate of almost three times the industry average.
Our sustained ‘above system’ growth has been achieved through ongoing innovation in our distribution model, informed by deep
market insight. We continue to grow the ‘nib’ brand through investment in our own organic channels supplemented by judicious
use of retail brokers.
As nib’s brand positioning reflects, we intend on remaining a major force within the under 40s market segment. In recent
years we have also become more focused on the over 55s age group due to the significant ongoing growth in this segment.
Distribution partnerships, particularly our relationship with Apia, have been an important part of this strategic shift.
In reaction to the trend of major brands looking for ways to add more value to their existing customer relationships, we have very
deliberately developed a ‘whitelabelling’ capability. This investment led to the launch of the Qantas Assure partnership that we
announced in November 2015.
Across the business there are several initiatives underway designed to increase the value proposition and make for a better
customer experience. For example, we launched the nib Rewards program during the year and we continue to invest heavily in
online engagement. There’s no better example than how we are looking to better engage with our customers than Whitecoat.
This success doesn’t mean we don’t face a number of business challenges. Customer lapse in particular continues to increase
both as a result of customers switching funds or giving up health insurance. We are especially focused on two remedies.
First, improving the customer experience when going to hospital through providing them with convenient and relevant
information. Second, giving customers a reason to stay with nib beyond the benefits of our core product offering.
As can be observed from the financials, the strong operating performance of arhi translated into a very solid underwriting result.
Assisted by claims inflation which was low relative to previous years, our gross underwriting margin improved from 13.3% in FY15
to 14.9%. After operating expenses, we delivered an UOP of $94.5 million (net margin 6.0%) an increase of 31.4%.
Slowing claims inflation benefits policyholders by relieving pressure on future health insurance premiums. While it remains to be
seen if claims inflation will continue this lower trajectory, we are doing our best to keep it as low as possible.
At a broader industry level, health insurance affordability and transparency have been major issues with a number of initiatives
being pursued by the Government and the PHI industry. We are, and will continue to be, an active participant in these efforts.

November 2016 marks four years since we acquired our New Zealand operations*. Since then the business has
been dramatically transformed to align with our ambitions in the country.
Probably the most significant evidence of progress has been customer growth. Prior to our purchase of the business the
portfolio had declined for nearly a decade. Our rebranding and the launch of New Zealand’s first direct-to-consumer health
insurance range in 2013 was the catalyst for change. We are now growing the health insurance market and our overall share
has increased to over 15%. We have made a considerable investment in the brand and the growth of our direct-to-consumer
customer base, with approximately 45% of all our sales for FY16 made through this channel.
Good progress was made during the year to strengthen our multi-channel distribution strategy, which included:
• Maintaining our ‘best in class’ advisor product range, as well as continuing to build strong key advisor relationships.
• Developing the group and employer channel by launching new products and a unique health and wellness package
(healthHQ) designed to help us win new business.
• Establishing a new ‘whitelabelling’ distribution capability and with that, a relationship with leading New Zealand brand,
The Warehouse Group, who sell their own branded nib health and travel insurance policies. We expect to expand this
‘whitelabel’ channel during FY17 with other well-known New Zealand brands.
In October we announced the acquisition of the medical insurance book of OnePath NZ for approximately AU$22.5 million.
OnePath NZ was a subsidiary of ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited (ANZ) and New Zealand’s fifth largest health insurer. As a
result, nib New Zealand now provides health insurance to more than 200,000 Kiwis covering more than 15% of the insured
population. A key part of the transaction is the distribution agreement between nib and ANZ, where nib will distribute its health
insurance products through ANZ’s network of wealth specialists. This further strengthens our position as New Zealand’s second
largest health insurer.
Investing in digital and automation initiatives continues to be in focus given we inherited a business that was largely paper-based
and manual. Our digital initiatives are proving popular with our customers. For example:
• 30% of claims are now online
• More than 50% of direct-to-consumer sales are online
• 90% of customer payments are electronic
By focusing on a digital-first approach we are improving customer engagement and satisfaction, as well as generating
operational efficiencies.
Overall, New Zealand continues to deliver on the targets set when we acquired the business. For FY17 and beyond we expect
profitability to further improve through organic growth and increased scale.

Our International (Inbound) Health Insurance business continued to grow powerfully. Net policyholder growth for the year was
28% with UOP up 41.2% to $17.2 million. The result would have been better if not for higher than expected claims associated
with a single business group. The relationship with this group was discontinued from March 2016.
Overall, we expect that earnings will continue to grow aided by a strong pipeline of international student sales and further growth
in international visitor visa classes.
World Nomads Group
nib’s $95 million (enterprise value basis) acquisition of WNG, was completed on 31 July 2015. WNG is Australia’s third largest
travel insurer. Since then our short-term priorities have centred upon business transition, having the right people lead the
business, exploring nib Group synergies and considering future investment opportunities. We have ambitions for WNG and
see international markets as rich in opportunity. Investment in these opportunities may impact short term profitability but naturally
will reflect a disciplined assessment about creating enterprise value.
WNG is a managing general agent which performs all the functions of an insurer other than carrying the underwriting risk.
This includes product design, pricing, marketing, sales, paying claims and emergency assistance. WNG is a leading Australian
travel insurance company in a number of international markets including North and South America, Asia and Europe.
WNG had an UOP of $9.7 million, which was in line with our expectations.
Adjacent insurance lines and new business
We continue to see an increase in the number of our customers looking to purchase complementary products from nib. In FY16,
commissions from our adjacent insurance lines, including life and income insurance, totalled $2.3 million. Over the next 12 months
we expect to launch a number of new product lines and further leverage the expertise and reach of our distribution partners,
which we expect will be popular with our customers.
Launched in early 2014, nib Options aims to facilitate customers receiving cosmetic and major dental treatment domestically
and overseas. While the business made a loss of $2.5 million in FY16, our investment thesis is that people will increasingly travel
internationally to seek treatment and that nib has capabilities that lend ourselves to competing in the market for clients.

The strong performance of our core arhi business, as well the continued growth and expansion of our adjacent
businesses this financial year, has yielded another material improvement in performance for the nib Group.
Total Group revenue1 rose by an impressive 14.3% to $1.9 billion, which included the first time contribution of WNG (11-month
result) and OnePath NZ (seven-month result). Our Group UOP of $132.0 million was up 49.9% (statutory operating profit up
47.9% to $120.8 million). The difference between our UOP and statutory operating profit reflects one-off transactions and
non-cash items associated with business acquisitions.
Our investment portfolio delivered returns that were broadly in line with our internal benchmarks for the year, with a net
investment return of $16.9 million.
As a share of our overall Group after tax earnings, investment returns have continued to reduce over the past few years.
This is due to a lower capital base following a range of capital management initiatives undertaken since listing on the ASX
in 2007. Over the course of that period, we have returned more than $160 million to shareholders through a combination of
special dividends and a Capital Return. Capital above our internal prudential requirements has also been used to partially
fund a number of acquisitions, including IMAN in FY10, TOWER Medical Insurance Limited in FY13 as well as our WNG and
OnePath NZ transactions this financial year.
As at 30 June 2016, our total investment assets were $640.8 million.

In addition to using our capital to fund acquisitions, we have also accessed debt as a funding source. As at 30 June 2016, our
gearing ratio was 28.1% (debt-to-debt plus equity). This is consistent with our long-term gearing ratio of 30%, noting that the
target gearing policy allows for gearing to go above 30% for a short time, if necessary, as part of funding a significant investment.
The Board will continue to assess our debt and gearing levels and targets with the view to optimise our capital structure.
Our strong financial performance for FY16 has allowed the Board to declare a full year dividend of 14.75 cents per share fully
franked (FY15: 11.5 cents per share), totalling $64.8 million. The full year dividend comprises an interim dividend of 5.75 cents
per share fully franked (paid 1 April 2016) and a final dividend of 9.0 cents per share fully franked. The final dividend will be paid
to shareholders on 7 October 2016. The full year dividend of 14.75 cents per share represents a payout ratio of 70% of full year
NPAT and is consistent with our policy to pay ordinary fully franked dividends between 60% to 70% of full year NPAT.
Since listing on the ASX in 2007 our financial performance has been strong and on a Total Shareholder Return (TSR) basis
we have consistently outperformed the S&P/ASX200. For FY16, our TSR was 30.0% compared to negative 0.5% for the S&P/
ASX200. Our business strategy will continue to focus on delivering outstanding service to our customers, improving our operating
efficiencies and growing the business to provide the foundation for ongoing earnings growth and value for shareholders.

95 charities
nib foundation was established in 2008 with a clear vision to improve the health and wellbeing of individuals and
communities across Australia.
Over the past seven years, the foundation has remained dedicated to this vision through a commitment of $15 million to
95 charity partners in support of programs that raise awareness, build resilience, increase access to information and foster
social connections.
In 2015, four new Multi-Year Partnerships were established that work to address significant health needs affecting the
foundation’s two focal groups, young people and carers:
• Australian Drug Foundation’s Good Sports Junior program will encourage sporting clubs to foster a positive and healthy
environment for their young members
• Hello Sunday Morning will develop technology designed to empower Australians to improve their relationship with alcohol
• National Stroke Foundation will enhance and expand the My Stroke Journey program, which supports stroke survivors and
their families
• Disability Sport and Recreation’s Score! is Australia’s first online platform that will connect young Victorians with a disability
with inclusive sporting opportunities
The foundation’s ongoing commitment to the Hunter was clearly demonstrated through the support of the Upper Hunter
township of Dungog. April 2016 marked the one-year anniversary of the devastating floods that tore through the region.
Through the nib foundation funded, Project Bounce Forward, The Dungog Shire Community Centre has worked tirelessly
since the disaster to help rebuild the town and provide services to support the wellbeing of residents.
With initial funding due to end in March 2016 and much work still to be done, a renewed funding injection of $50,000 was
provided to ensure the project successfully reaches all those in need of support.
While the foundation continues to support many new and local causes, it has also helped existing partners to build their
capacity and expand service offerings. This has been the case with long-standing partner, OzHarvest. This financial year the
foundation’s ongoing support of the food rescue program enabled the service to be expanded into the Port Stephens area.
Furthermore, an additional three years of funding was announced to help establish and grow OzHarvest Western Australia.
Together with the foundation, we will continue to play an important role in helping meet the health and wellbeing needs of
communities across Australia by funding charities that work to address significant health concerns.
In addition to the work of nib foundation, we are focused on giving back to the community through a combination of fundraising
initiatives, in-kind support and employee volunteering efforts.
Our dedicated workplace fundraising program, has raised more than $61,000 and provided overwhelming in-kind support for
40 local and national charities since 2008.
It is through the dedication of our employees and the donation of their time and skills that we are able to deliver considerable
value to nib foundation partners and other community groups above and beyond agreed funding commitments.

nib holdings limitedOPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWCONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016BUSINESS STRATEGIES AND PROSPECTS
nib’s Business Strategy sets out 10 key levers which we believe will increase earnings and grow enterprise value.
1. Pursue above ‘system’ 4% to 5% net policyholder growth in the Australian Resident Health Insurance market.
2. Grow our international workers and international students market share.
3. Position and build our business in New Zealand as a ‘challenger’ and grow the market and our share.
4. Complete integration and pursue growth of World Nomads Group travel insurance business.
5. Escalate focus upon knowledge as a source of customer value, empowerment and competitive advantage.
6. Leverage core business capability to pursue adjacent business opportunities.
7. Design and manage product benefits and claims in accordance with our strategic and commercial objectives.
8.
Increase customer satisfaction, productivity and efficiency.
9. Have the ‘right people on the bus’, develop a high performance organisational culture and engage our people.
10. Continue to build and develop overall key organisational capabilities and assets.
We measure our success by Group revenue and earnings growth, customer satisfaction and total shareholder returns.
Principal risks and uncertainties
nib has established policies for the oversight and management of material business risks. Further information regarding how
nib recognises and manages risk is detailed in Principle 7 of our Corporate Governance Statement. The Corporate Governance
Statement and nib’s Risk Policy are available on our website at nib.com.au
Principal risks and uncertainties include:
General economic
conditions
Claims inflation
and fraud
nib’s performance is impacted by Australian economic conditions such as inflation, interest
rates, consumer and business spending and employment rates which are outside nib’s
control. The environment in which nib operates may experience challenging conditions as
a result of general uncertainty about future Australian and international economic conditions.
nib is subject to significant claims inflation which may not be adequately covered by premium
price increases and/or product design changes. Key sources of claims inflation risk include
the renewal of key provider contracts on acceptable terms, service utilisation rates, services
related to complex and costly members (usually with chronic diseases), claims leakage,
provider and member fraud, public hospital claiming, as well as general provider behaviour,
which results in a weakening of nib’s gross margin and overall profitability.
Performance of
adjacent (non-Australian
Residents Health
Insurance) businesses
In recent years, in addition to focusing on its Australian regulated health insurance business,
nib has diversified its business and identified adjacent earnings opportunities, such as
International (Inbound) Health Insurance, New Zealand, nib Options and World Nomads Group.
These adjacent businesses now make a meaningful contribution to nib’s operating result and
as a result the performance of these businesses could significantly affect nib’s profits.
Investment market
performance
A substantial proportion of nib’s profits are generated from its investment portfolio.
Consequently, investment performance significantly affects nib’s profits and financial position.
Competition in the
health insurance
industry
Pricing risk
Risk equalisation special
account arrangements
The industry in which nib operates is competitive. The actions of competitors could result in a
reduction in the rate of growth of nib, a decline in the number of people insured by nib and/or
declining profit margins.
Australian health insurance premiums are currently required to be approved by the Minister for
Health. Historically, nib and other health funds have only raised premiums once a year. There
is a risk that nib’s application for a change in its premium rates may only receive approval at a
level lower than originally requested, or may be rejected by the Minister. Such an amendment
or rejection may have a negative impact on nib’s operating and financial performance.
Since 1 April 2007 risk equalisation arrangements have applied to the registered health
insurance industry in Australia. These arrangements replaced the previous reinsurance
arrangements. Under these arrangements all registered health insurers effectively provide
reinsurance support so that the industry as a whole shares the hospital costs of high risk groups
irrespective of whether those claims are attributable to a policyholder of a particular fund.
11
annual report 2016BUSINESS STRATEGIES AND PROSPECTS continued
Principal risks and uncertainties continued
Changes in government
policy or legislation
The business environment in which nib operates is heavily regulated. The Australian Federal
Government currently provides a number of regulatory incentives to encourage participation
by the public in private health insurance including:
a. Australian Government Rebate;
b. Lifetime Health Cover; and
c. Medicare Levy Surcharge.
The Federal Government has and may in the future change these regulatory incentives from
time to time through changes to such things as policy and legislation. There is a risk that such
changes may have a negative impact on the private health insurance industry and nib.
Merger or acquisition
opportunities
nib has a business strategy of pursuing merger and acquisition opportunities. The pursuit of
merger and acquisition opportunities carries with it risks and there is no guarantee that such
a strategy will be successful.
Compliance with
regulation
nib is subject to a high degree of regulation concerning how private health insurers conduct
their health insurance business. Private health insurers must be registered and must comply
with a variety of obligations in relation to the conduct of that business including a requirement
to have appointed actuaries, compliance with prudential, solvency and capital adequacy
standards, exclusion of disqualified persons from management and a number of reporting and
notification obligations. If nib does not comply with the regulatory requirements that apply to
it, it may suffer a penalty, such as a fine or an obligation to pay compensation. In some cases,
a regulator may cancel or suspend its authority to conduct business. A significant failure to
comply with regulatory requirements may also give rise to adverse comment by the press and
other industry commentators, negatively affecting nib’s financial performance.
Operational risk
nib is exposed to a variety of operational and general business risks. Exposure to unexpected
financial and non financial losses arising from the way in which nib conducts its business
operations may have an adverse effect on earnings and assets of nib as well as its reputation.
Loss of key personnel
nib’s success depends largely on its key personnel, including senior management. The
inability to access and retain services of a significant number of such employees could disrupt
nib’s business.
Tax treatment
Technology
Litigation and legal
action
The Federal or State Governments may introduce further or increase taxes, duties (including
stamp duty on insurance policies) or other imposts or introduce amendments to existing
legislation which may result in an adverse impact on nib and the health insurance industry.
The health insurance industry relies increasingly on technology to conduct an efficient and
cost effective business. nib faces the risk, in common with other participants, that further
technology changes will be required which could result in an increase in costs. In addition,
information technology systems risks include complete or partial systems failure, lack of
systems capacity, inadequacy to meet changing business requirements, inappropriate or
unauthorised systems access and unsuccessful systems integrations. Any major failure or
inadequacy in the information technology systems could materially affect nib’s business.
At any time, nib could be involved in civil proceedings in courts of various jurisdictions. nib may
also be exposed to litigation in the future over claims which may affect its business. To the
extent that these risks are not covered by nib’s insurance policies, litigation or the costs of
responding to these legal actions or suggested legal action could have a material adverse
impact on nib’s financial position, earnings and share price.
Future events
It is not possible to predict or identify all future events which may impact adversely on nib’s
profitability or financial position.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal continuing activities of the Group consisted of
operating as a private health insurer for Australian residents,
New Zealand residents and international visitors and students
to Australia. Overall the Group insures over 1.3 million lives.
In addition to these dividends, since the end of the financial
year the Directors have recommended the payment of a fully
franked final dividend of $39.5 million (9.0 cents per fully paid
ordinary share) to be paid on 7 October 2016 out of retained
profits at 30 June 2016.
Our vision is to be a leading financier and facilitator of
healthcare consumption with a reputation for innovative
products, value for money, outstanding customer service,
being a good corporate citizen and strong shareholder returns.
Subject to franking credit availability, the Board’s position is
that future ordinary dividends will reflect a dividend payout
ratio of 60% to 70% of earnings with additional capacity to pay
special dividends as part of future capital management.
MATTERS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE
FINANCIAL YEAR
No matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2016
that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect:
a. the Group’s operations in future financial years; or
b. the results of those operations in future financial years; or
c. the Group’s state of affairs in future financial years.
During the year the Group acquired World Nomads Group
(WNG), the third-largest distributor of travel insurance in
Australia. WNG specialises in the marketing, sale and
distribution of travel insurance policies globally.
Additionally, nib nz limited (a 100% owned subsidiary)
acquired the medical insurance business OnePath Life (NZ)
Limited (OnePath). OnePath was New Zealand’s fifth-largest
health insurer with approximately 19,000 policies covering
43,000 insured persons.
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Group and its business strategies and prospects is set out in

annual report 2016NON-AUDIT SERVICES
The Company may decide to employ the auditor on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where the auditor’s
expertise and experience with the Group are important.
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor (PricewaterhouseCoopers) for audit and non-audit services during the year
are disclosed in Note 33 – Remuneration of Auditors.
The Board of Directors has considered the position and, in accordance with advice received from the Audit Committee, is
satisfied that the provision of the non-audit services is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors
imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the auditor, as
set out in Note 1, did not compromise the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following
reasons:
• all non-audit services have been reviewed by the Audit Committee to ensure that they did not impact the impartiality and
objectivity of the auditor.
• none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics
for Professional Accountants.
INSURANCE OF OFFICERS
During the financial year, the Group paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring the Directors and Officers of the Group
against liability incurred as such a Director or Officer, other than conduct involving wilful breach of duty in relation to the Group, to
the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and
the amount of the premium.
AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
A copy of the Auditor’s Independence Declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on

REMUNERATION REPORT
For the year ended 30 June 2016
MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to present our Remuneration Report for the financial year to 30 June 2016.
Our aim with remuneration is to retain, reward and incentivise our Executives to deliver short-and-long-term value creation that is
aligned to our organisational culture, overall business strategy as well as shareholder interests.
The Board has spent considerable time bedding down a remuneration philosophy and framework that is fair to our people and is
reasonable in the eyes of our shareholders. It’s therefore encouraging that our remuneration approach has been readily accepted
by our shareholders, proxy advisors and other shareholder representative groups. At the 2015 Annual General Meeting, our
shareholders voted more than 98% in favour of our Remuneration Report. We feel feedback is important and as in previous
years, nib will seek to engage with our key stakeholders prior to this year’s AGM.
Like many companies we continue to face intense competition to attract and also retain Executive talent. Our remuneration
structure sets a clear and meaningful link between performance and reward to ensure we continue to attract and retain the
right people. We have previously explained to our shareholders that the Board’s Executive remuneration goal is to position
our Executive team between the 50th and 75th percentile of benchmarked companies in terms of fixed remuneration. On a
regular basis we engage an independent advisor to assist in benchmarking remuneration against a defined nib peer group
which contains similar businesses of comparable size. This was done in May 2014 and again in May this year (for financial year
2017). As our shareholders have seen, the size, scope and complexity of nib has increased significantly in the last few years
with the acquisition of nib New Zealand, World Nomads Group and the expansion of our international business operations.
Our benchmarking in 2016 has shown that the Managing Director was below market and so TFR will be increased by 15%
in 2017 to align with our targets and to remain competitive. Further information regarding Executive Remuneration, as well
as total remuneration mix and performance against STI and LTI hurdles for FY16, can be found on pages 27 to 31 of the
Annual Report.
Due to ongoing growth and diversification of the Group, Board succession planning and renewal remains a key focus for the
nib Board. Ensuring we have the right skills mix, experience, diversity, independence and capacity is integral to nib’s ongoing
success. With this central to our thinking, during the year nib appointed Mr Donal O’Dwyer as an Independent Non-Executive
Director of the Board of nib. The appointment of Donal follows the announcement in November last year by Dr Annette
Carruthers that she would not be seeking re-election as a Non-Executive Director of nib. We will not be seeking shareholder
approval to Increase nib’s Non-Executive Director fee pool with 2017 Directors fees captured under our current fee pool.
Since listing on ASX in 2007, nib has continued to perform well against our stated business strategy. With that we have delivered
strong returns for our shareholders, while being served by a very capable and experienced Executive team. We thank our
Executives and their teams for their commitment to nib.
I would like acknowledge the contribution of my fellow nib Director, Christine McLoughlin who during the year moved from
Chairman of our People and Remuneration Committee and will take up the role as Chairman of Risk and Reputation Committee.
Christine’s, leadership has helped embed the effective remuneration philosophy we have at nib. As Chairman of our People and
Remuneration Committee I look forward to building on the strong foundations we have in place.
As always, we welcome your feedback.
Yours sincerely
Lee Ausburn
Chairman
People and Remuneration Committee

OUR REMUNERATION GOVERNANCE
The role of nib’s People and Remuneration Committee (Committee) is to make recommendations to the Board on the
remuneration framework, ensuring our remuneration strategy is aligned and reflects the performance of the nib Group. As part
of this process the Committee seeks advice and consults with a range of external remuneration consultants, specialists, major
shareholders and shareholder advisory groups.
The Committee has responsibilities in the areas of remuneration and its link to nib’s culture and business strategy, diversity, human
resources strategy, succession planning and employee development and engagement. The Committee Charter is available on the
nib website (nib.com.au/shareholders). The Committee includes the following independent, Non-Executive Directors:
Lee Ausburn
Christine McLoughlin
Donal O’Dywer
Philip Gardner
Executive remuneration arrangements are set against a comparator group of organisations or peers, which nib determines
in consultation with external remuneration advisors. In May 2014 (and again in May this year for financial year 2017) Guerdon
Associates completed the benchmarking analyses. The scope of this work included reviewing and benchmarking remuneration
arrangements against a relevant peer group of companies and working with the Committee to ensure any proposed changes
are aligned to our remuneration philosophy. The May 2014 benchmarking analysis and supplementary data was utilised for the
financial year 2016 reviews.
In determining nib’s peer group, companies from the following sectors and industries were considered:
• Health insurance companies;
• Other insurance companies;
• Other finance sector companies;
• Consumer discretionary; and
• Healthcare companies.
We have found it challenging to define a peer group in the Australian market of a similar size to nib. As a result comparator
companies were chosen based on size and broad operational parameters. We also consider current market expectations within
our sector in forming a view of benchmarking Executive remuneration.
The primary peer group contained 20 companies, and a further 25 companies were represented in the supplementary
comparator group. The primary peer group was chosen based on market capitalisation and pre-tax profit broadly being between
50% and 200% of nib, with nib positioned around the middle of the group.
nib’s long-term goal is to set TFR for our Managing Director/ Chief Executive Officer and Executives competitively between the
50th and 75th percentiles of our benchmarked peer group. In FY16, adjustments were made to achieve this goal. Our increasing
market capitalisation (which has increased approximately 230% over the five year period from 30 June 2011) together with the
expanding scope and complexity of our business, has required us to review and change our peer group of 20 companies for FY17.
This has resulted in further Executive remuneration adjustments for FY17. Our benchmarking in 2016 has shown that the Managing
Director was below market and so TFR will be increased by 15% in 2017 to align with our targets and to remain competitive.
The Board’s view is that our current LTI performance hurdles being Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Total Shareholder Return (TSR)
relative to S&P/ASX200 group of companies remain appropriate and aligned to our remuneration philosophy. We will continue to
assess the appropriateness of these performance hurdles each year and consult with shareholders, proxy advisors and other
shareholder representative groups regarding any future amendments to ensure they are aligned to shareholder interests.

annual report 2016
ACTUAL REMUNERATION RECEIVED FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016
Actual remuneration for each Executive in FY16 included a fixed component, as well as a variable component made up of an
STI payment and LTI award. The STI paid is determined by the performance of each Executive against set performance targets
that include financial and non-financial metrics, and in some instances, strategic milestones. FY16 included the vesting of the
FY12-FY15 LTI Plan for eligible participants, based on hurdles set (Earnings Per Share and Total Shareholder Return) with 50%
of the FY12-FY15 LTI Plan vesting for participants.
A full breakdown of Executive remuneration details has been prepared in accordance with statutory requirements and
accounting standards. This detailed disclosure is located on page 36 of this Report.
The remuneration structure for each Executive for FY16 is made up of the following components.

nib holdings limitedREMUNERATION REPORTCONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016EXECUTIVE REWARD AT nib
The objective of Executive remuneration arrangements is to ensure that nib’s remuneration practices are clearly understood and
appropriately aligned with shareholder value creation over the short and long term, and that these practices work to appropriately
motivate, reward and retain Executives.
The remuneration framework provides a mix of fixed and variable remuneration with a blend of short-term and long-term
incentives. There are three components of total remuneration:
• fixed remuneration, comprising base remuneration package, superannuation and insurance cover;
• short-term incentives based on predetermined Key Performance Indicator (KPI) targets established by the Board and an
assessment of leadership; and
•
longer-term incentives based on predetermined TSR and EPS performance established by the Board.
Executives only receive dividends on the deferred STI and LTI (including those subject to escrow) after they have been awarded
or vested. Executives are not entitled to dividends on securities or performance rights which have not vested.
A significant portion of the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer’s and Executives’ remuneration is performance based
through STI and LTI arrangements. Claw-back arrangements are in place for the portion of STI deferred and LTI.
If the Board becomes aware of a material misstatement of our financial accounts or statements, and nib has awarded the
Executive a remuneration increase, incentive payment or award (STI and LTI) having regard to misstatement, the Board may,
(in its absolute discretion) require the Executive to:
• repay the Company any amount of remuneration, STI or LTI received by the Executive; or
•
forfeit or cancel any remuneration increase, STI or LTI award (whether vested or unvested).

EXECUTIVE REWARD AT nib continued
Fixed remuneration
Fixed remuneration for Executives is determined with reference to a benchmarking process, external market factors, competition
to attract and retain talent, as well as consideration of the expertise of the individual in the role.
Fixed remuneration includes cash salary, superannuation and insurance cover. The fixed remuneration may be salary packaged
at no additional cost to the Group.
Short-term incentives for the financial year ended 30 June 2016
nib’s short-term incentive (STI) plan for each Executive is structured as follows.
TOTAL POTENTIAL STI
Cash (50%)
Deferred into shares (50%)
1 year (50%) / 2 years (50%)
Total potential reward
Variable (Determined by a mixture of financial, non-financial and individual performance outcomes)
Performance criteria for STI is based on two components:
1. Performance assessment which makes up 80% of the total STI. The performance component is assessed against
predetermined performance milestones for each Executive. In some instances an Executive’s STI assessment may include
strategic milestones.
2. Leadership assessment which makes up 20% of the total STI. The leadership component ensures we continue to focus
and recognise the contribution of our Executives in developing a high performance organisational culture and is assessed
as part of annual performance reviews.
The Board is responsible for assessing the performance of the MD/CEO and the MD/CEO is responsible for assessing the
performance of the other Executives (with approval of the resulting STI awards by the Board following a recommendation from
the Committee).
The actual level of STI paid to each Executive is determined at the end of the financial year based on the Executive’s achievement
of predetermined performance milestones and an annual performance review. The cash component of the bonuses is payable
on or before 15 September each year in respect of the prior financial year.
Each Executive has a target STI opportunity. For FY16, 50% of the awarded STI must be deferred into shares, with half the
shares vesting after one year and the second half after two years. These shares are subject to a real risk of forfeiture during the
deferral period being a service condition. While nib does not set minimum shareholding requirements on our Executives, the
Board’s view is that the deferral arrangements under the STI means all Executives have an appropriate minimum equity holding.

annual report 2016EXECUTIVE REWARD AT nib continued
Long-term incentives for the financial year ended 30 June 2016
nib’s long-term incentive (LTI) plan for each Executive is structured as follows.
TOTAL POTENTIAL LTI
LTI Issue of Rights
4 year
performance period
Tranche 1 (50%):
TSR
Tranche 2 (50%):
EPS
LTI awarded
With 50% of total award
having 2 year escrow period
The purpose of the LTI is to balance short-term performance objectives with the creation of long-term shareholder value by
focusing overall Group performance over a multi-year period.
The nib LTI is an incentive provided to eligible Executives if specific measures are met over a four-year period. LTI targets are set
in the interests of creating long term shareholder value and to assist nib to attract, reward, motivate and retain Executives.
LTIP participants are granted performance rights that enable the Executive to acquire shares in nib for nil consideration if
performance conditions are met and the employees are still employed by nib at the end of the vesting period. No dividends are
received on unvested rights.
The vesting date may be accelerated at the Board’s discretion in the event of death of a participant, cessation of employment
for other reasons; including total and permanent disablement, redundancy and retirement, on winding up, delisting, change of
control and reconstruction or amalgamation.
Participation in the plan is at the Board’s discretion and no individual has a contractual right to participate in the plan or to receive
any guaranteed benefits.
The performance hurdles for the nib LTI is Total Shareholder Return (TSR) relative to the S&P/ASX200 over four years and EPS
growth over the performance period. The LTI is allocated in two equal tranches; 50% for TSR and 50% for EPS.
A condition of acceptance for each Executive in the LTI Plan is the requirement for 50% of the LTI to have a two-year escrow
period. This escrow period extends beyond employment at nib ceasing, including termination.
nib LTI performance rights vest in accordance with the achievement of the following vesting conditions:
Vesting Condition 1
Vesting Condition 2
50% of the performance rights (Tranche 1)
50% of the performance rights (Tranche 2)
Total shareholder return targets (TSR Hurdle) for the relevant
performance period are met
Earnings per share growth targets (EPS Hurdle) for the relevant
performance period are met
TSR Hurdle (Tranche 1)
The TSR Hurdle applies to half of the LTI allocation. The TSR Hurdle measures the groth in the price of nib securities plus nib
cash distributions and compares this to the shareholder returns from the peer group of companies. In order for the Tranche 1
performance rights to vest, the TSR of nib will be compared to companies in the S$P/ASX 200 (the peer group) over the
performance period.
The percentage of Tranch 1 performance rights that vest is determined as follows:
nib’s TSR performance compared to the relevant peer group
Performance of Tranche 1 performance rights vesting
>= 75th percentile
100%
>= 50th percentile to 74th percentile
Pro-rata straight line vesting between 50% and 74%
< 50th percentile

For the purpose of the calculation, 25% to 50% will be discrete thresholds, with performance above the 50% entitlement calculated on a pro rata basis to a maximum
entitlement of 100%.
For the FY16-FY19 LTIP nib moved to set EPS hurdles and performance levels annually, instead for the four year period at
the beginning at the performance period. This allows the Board to take into account regulatory pricing re-sets and a focus on
performance sustainability over a long-term period. The main reason for this, and as can be seen from the graph (below), is that
for incentive schemes to be effective they need to strike the right balance of being aspirational but also achievable. As the graph
highlights, our previous approach to setting EPS targets for the four year period resulted in nil award of the EPS component for
FY11 and FY12. For the FY13 and FY14 grants, cumulative average growth rate targets were updated to reflect the strategy and
maturity of the business.
Variability in investment returns from year to year also impacts EPS, with EPS targets being set based on an assumption that
on average over time investment returns will be in line with benchmark performance.
If vesting conditions are met, the performance rights will vest on 1 September following the end of the performance period.
On the vesting date, Executives who hold vested performance rights will be either issued or transferred shares in nib for each
vested performance right. There is no re-testing of performance.
One half of any shares awarded will be required to be held in escrow for a period of two years, even if termination of employment
occurs during that period.
The graph below shows the EPS performance of nib for the past five years and demonstrates how challenging the EPS targets are
for grants of LTI made in FY11 and FY12. For the FY13 and FY14 grants cumulative average growth rate targets were updated to
reflect the strategy and maturity of the business. Variability in investment returns from year to year impacts EPS, with EPS targets
being set based on an assumption that on average over time investment returns will be in line with benchmark performance.

HOW REWARD WAS LINKED TO PERFORMANCE THIS YEAR
The components of remuneration that are linked to performance are the STI and LTI plans. Set performance indicators determine
80% of the STI award, while 20% is assessed on the leadership of each Executive.
Commercially sensitive and strategic milestone targets were set for some of our Executives and these were dependent on the
segment of our business they have responsibility for.
The following table shows the specific key performance indicators for the Managing Director/CEO and Chief Financial Officer/
Deputy CEO over the last five years:

Result
Group premium revenue up 11% to $1.8 billion, with 100% of maximum STI awarded for
this target.
Group underlying operating profit up 49.9% to $132.0 million, with 100% of maximum
STI awarded for this target.
WNG underlying operating profit was $9.7 million (11 month result), with approximately
70% of maximum STI awarded for this target.
Underlying EPS of 22.9cps up 25.1%, with 100% of maximum STI awarded for this
target.
Approximately 65% of maximum STI awarded for this target.
A range of metrics are used to measure customer satisfaction, including lapse and NPS
which resulted in approximately 50% of maximum STI awarded for this target.
The graph over illustrates the relationship between the amount (as a percentage) of total STI awarded and operating profit
result. Executives received a lower STI (as a percentage) as operating profit has slowed from FY12. In recognition of the role
and contribution of our Executives in establishing and integrating our new business segments (including nib New Zealand,
International (Inbound) Health Insurance and World Nomads Group) the STI percentage awarded has improved in recent years.

Termination payments
For our Australian Executives with open contracts effective pre August 2014, the Group may terminate the Executive’s contract
with 12 months written notice and may make a payment in lieu of all or part of the notice period. For our Australian Executives with
open contracts effective post August 2014, the Group may terminate the Executive’s contract with six months written notice and
may make a payment in lieu of all or part of the notice period. In the case of a New Zealand Executive, the Group may terminate
the Executive’s contract with nine months written notice and may make a payment in lieu of all or part of the notice period.
The Executive may also receive the following benefits upon termination:
• a pro-rata STI payment based on the period of the financial year during which the Executive was employed and the Board’s
assessment of the Executive’s performance against the key performance indicators as at the date of termination; and/or
• the Board has discretion to determine that all or a portion of unvested performance rights of a participant of the LTIP are to be
vested upon termination.
At the 2011 Annual General Meeting nib received shareholder approval for the payment of termination benefits which may
exceed the 12 month salary limit on termination benefits under the Corporations Act 2001. In response to shareholder feedback,
the Board has since determined that this approval will only be undertaken for Executives who held this position at the date
of shareholder approval. The only current Executives this approval would be applicable to are Mark Fitzgibbon (MD/CEO),
Michelle McPherson (Deputy CEO/CFO) and Rhod McKensey (Group Executive Australian Residents Health Insurance).

annual report 2016NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REMUNERATION
Fees and payments to Non-Executive Directors reflect the Board role, market fee levels, and the objective of the Group to attract
highly skilled and experienced Non-Executive Directors.
nib requires all Non-Executive Directors to hold a minimum of 50% of their first year’s total annual base Director’s fee in
shares, which is to be accumulated within three years of appointment (based on the share price at the date of joining the Board).
All current Non-Executive Directors comply with this requirement as at 30 June 2016.
Non-Executive Director fees
Our Non-Executive Directors (NEDs) are paid a base fee, plus they also receive an additional fee for being members of other
nib Board Committees. NED fees are reviewed annually by the Committee and approved by the Board. In 2014, nib engaged
the services of Guerdon Associates to conduct a benchmarking and market remuneration analysis, which together with
supplementary data was utilised this year.
NED fees are determined within the $1.5 million aggregate nib Directors fee pool limit, which was approved by shareholders at
the 2013 Annual General Meeting. Directors’ fees and superannuation are paid out of this pool. Travel allowances, non-monetary
benefits and retirement benefits are not included in this pool.

annual report 2016NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2016
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation
of these consolidated financial statements are set out below.
These policies have been consistently applied to all the years
presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements
are for the consolidated entity consisting of nib holdings limited
and its subsidiaries.
Significant and other accounting policies that summarise
the measurement basis used and are relevant to the
understanding of financial statements are provided throughout
the notes to the financial statements.
a) Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards
(and interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting
Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. nib holdings
limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the
financial statements.
i) Compliance with IFRS
The consolidated financial statements of nib holdings limited
Group also comply with International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board (IASB).
ii) Historical cost convention
These financial statements have been prepared under the
historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of
available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities
at fair value through profit or loss, certain classes of property,
plant and equipment and investment properties.
b) New and amended standards adopted by the Group
The Group has not applied any new standards or amendments
during the annual reporting period commencing 1 July 2015.
c) New accounting standards and interpretations not
yet adopted
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have
been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2016
reporting periods. The Group’s assessment of the impact
of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.
i) AASB 9 Financial Instruments (effective from 1 January 2018)
AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification,
measurement and derecognition of financial assets and
financial liabilities and introduces new rules for hedge
accounting. While the Group is yet to undertake a detailed
assessment it doesn’t expect any significant impact from this
standard.
ii) AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with customers (effective
from 1 January 2018)
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 majority of the Group’s revenue is recognised under
AASB 1023 General Insurance Contracts which is not
impacted by AASB 15. While the Group is yet to undertake a
detailed assessment it doesn’t expect any significant impact
from this standard.
iii) AASB 16 Leases (effective from 1 January 2019)
AASB 16 will primarily affect the accounting by lessees and will
result in the recognition of almost all the leases on the balance
sheet. The standard removes the current distinctions between
operating and financing leases and requires recognition of an
asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to
pay rentals for almost all the lease contracts. The Group is yet
to undertake a detailed assessment of this standard.
The Group is currently assessing whether it should adopt
these standards before their mandatory date.
There are no other standards that are not yet effective and
that are expected to have a material impact on the entity in the
current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future
transactions.
d) Principles of consolidation
i) Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets
and liabilities of all subsidiaries of nib holdings limited (“parent
entity”) as at 30 June 2016 and the results of all subsidiaries for
the year then ended. nib holdings limited and its subsidiaries
together are referred to in this financial report as the Group.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over
which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity
when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable
returns from its involvement with the entity and has 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
deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
50
nib holdings limitedThe acquisition method of accounting is used to account for
the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group (refer to Note 34(c).
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains
on transactions between Group companies are eliminated.
Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction
provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries are changed where
necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted
by the Group.
ii) Changes in ownership interests
The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests
that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity
owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in
an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling
and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests
in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the
adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration
paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within
equity attributable to owners of nib holdings limited.
When the Group ceases to have control, joint control or
significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is
remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount
recognised in profit or loss. This fair value becomes the initial
carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting
for the retained interest as an associate, jointly controlled entity
or financial asset.
e) Foreign currency translation
i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the
Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates
(‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial
statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is
nib holdings limited’s functional and presentation currency.
ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional
currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from
the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at
period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or
loss, except when they are deferred in equity as qualifying
cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges or are
attributable to part of the net investment in a foreign operation.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings
are presented in the income statement, within finance costs.
All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in
the income statement on a net basis within other income or
other expenses.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date
when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on
assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of
the fair value gain or loss. For example, translation differences
on non-monetary assets and liabilities such as equities held
at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit
or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss and translation
differences on non-monetary assets such as equities classified
as available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in other
comprehensive income.
iii) Group companies
The results and financial position of foreign operations
(none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary
economy) that have a functional currency different from the
presentation currency are translated into the presentation
currency as follows:
• assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented
are translated at the closing rate at the date of that
balance sheet;
•
income and expenses for each income statement and
statement of comprehensive income are translated at
average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable
approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates
prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case
income and expenses are translated at the dates of the
transactions); and
• all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other
comprehensive income.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition
of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the
foreign operation and translated at the closing rate.
f) Assets backing private health insurance liabilities
As part of the investment strategy the Group actively
manages its investment portfolio to ensure that a portion of its
investments mature in accordance with the expected pattern of
future cash flows arising from private health insurance liabilities.
With the exception of property, plant and equipment, and
the investment in unlisted equity securities, the Group
has determined that all financial assets of nib health funds
limited and nib nz limited are held to back private health
insurance liabilities.
g) Rounding of amounts
The company is of a kind referred to in 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, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.
51
annual report 20162. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to
exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies.
The Group makes estimates and assumptions in respect of certain key assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are
continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The key areas in which critical estimates are applied are:
• Estimation of deferred acquisition costs – Note 13
• Estimation of goodwill impairment and useful life of brand names and trademarks – Note 16
• Estimation of outstanding claims liability – Note 19
• Estimation for liability adequacy test – Note 20 and Note 21
• Estimation of premium payback liabilities – Note 21
3. RISK MANAGEMENT
The financial condition and operations of the Group are affected by a number of key financial risks including insurance risk,
interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, financial risk and fiscal risk, and non-financial risks including sovereign
risk, operational risk, regulatory and compliance risk. Notes on the Group’s policies and procedures in respect of managing
the financial risks are set out in this note below.
a) Objectives in managing risks arising from private health insurance contracts and policies for mitigating those risks
nib’s Board of Directors determines the Group’s overall risk appetite and approves the risk management strategies, policies and
practices to ensure that risks are identified and managed within the context of this appetite.
The Group’s risk management framework manages risks through a three lines of defence model. The three lines of defence
model provides defined risk ownership responsibilities with functionally independent oversight and assurance. nib’s Group risk
management framework manages risks through:
• The Board of nib is ultimately responsible for the risk management framework and oversees its operation by management to
operate within the approved risk appetite statement.
• The establishment of the Audit Committee and the Risk and Reputation Committee to assist the Board in the execution of its
responsibilities:
– The Audit Committee’s responsibilities include:
– reviewing the annual reports and other financial information distributed externally;
– recommending the appointment and remuneration of the external auditor;
– reviewing the performance and independence of the external auditor; and
– reviewing the Group’s systems and procedures for compliance with legal and regulatory requirements as they relate to
the integrity of the Group’s financial statements and other material regulatory documents;
– reviewing the performance and independence of the Appointed Actuary;
– reviewing the adequacy of nib’s corporate reporting processes and the integrity of nib’s financial statements and other
material regulatory documents.
– The Risk and Reputation Committee’s responsibilities include:
– assisting the Board to review the effectiveness of the Group’s system of internal control;
– recommending the appointment and remuneration of the internal auditor;
– reviewing the performance and independence of the internal auditor;
– monitoring the risk management system; and
– reviewing the Group’s systems and procedures for compliance with legal and regulatory requirements other than those
monitored by the Audit Committee.
52
nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016• The Group’s internal policies and procedures designed to mitigate such risks:
– The maintenance and use of management information systems which provide up to date, reliable data on the risks which
the business is exposed to at any point in time.
– Actuarial models, using information from the management information systems, are used to calculate premiums and
monitor claims patterns. Past experience and statistical methods are used as part of the process.
– A rigorous approach to product design to mitigate the risk of the Group being exposed to adverse selection.
– Maintenance of reserves in excess of solvency and capital adequacy regulatory requirements.
– An investment strategy which delivers a diversified portfolio with a heavier weighting to defensive assets versus
growth assets.
– The maintenance of defined underwriting processes where applicable.
•
Internal audit which provides independent assurance to senior management and Directors regarding the adequacy of controls
over activities where the risks are perceived to be high.
• Regular risk and compliance reporting.
• nib health funds limited is subject to the application of standards for solvency and capital adequacy. From 1 July 2015,
section 92 of the Private Health Insurance (Prudential Supervision) Act 2015 (Cth) provides the Australian Prudential
Regulation Authority (APRA) with the power to issue prudential standards. The relevant standards determined by APRA
are the Health Insurance (Prudential Standard) Determination No. 2 of 2015 – HPS 100 Solvency Standard and the Health
Insurance (Prudential Standard) Determination No 3 of 2015 – HPS 110 Capital Adequacy.
– The Solvency and Capital Adequacy Standards are an integral component of the prudential reporting and management
regime for registered private health insurers.
– These standards impose a two tier capital requirement on private health insurers with each tier considering the capital
requirements in a different set of circumstances.
– The first tier – solvency – is intended to ensure the basic solvency of the fund (that is, in the unlikely event of a wind-up); at
any time on a run-off, the fund’s financial position is such that the insurer will be able to meet, out of the fund’s assets, all
liabilities incurred for the purposes of the fund as those liabilities become due.
– The second tier – capital adequacy – is intended to secure the financial soundness of the health benefits fund on a
going concern basis, in particular its ability to remain solvent for at least the next three years. It is expected that in most
circumstances this second tier will provide an additional buffer of capital above the minimum solvency requirement.
• The New Zealand business is subject to the application of solvency standards for non life business issued by the Reserve
Bank of New Zealand which require a margin to be maintained over minimum solvency capital as a condition of nib nz
limited’s insurance license.
b) Insurance risk
In addition to the risk management policies and procedures adopted to manage insurance risk set out in Note 3(a) the provision
of private health insurance in Australia is governed by the Act. Private health insurance business (Australian Residents Health
Insurance) is the primary focus of the Act which governs the provision of Complying Health Insurance Products (CHIPS).
Under the Act, Registered Private Health Insurers may also provide health-related business as prescribed, and the Group
provides International Students Health Insurance and International Workers Health Insurance in this respect. The industry in
Australia is shaped by a number of regulatory factors:
• Community Rating: The principle of community rating prevents private health insurers from improperly discriminating
between people who are or who wish to become insured, on the basis of their health status, age, race, gender, religious
beliefs, sexuality, frequency of need of health care, lifestyle or claims history. Community rating applies to CHIP (Australian
Residents Health Insurance) and International Students Health Insurance, but not to International Workers Health Insurance.
• Risk Equalisation: The risk equalisation scheme seeks to share the risks among all registered health insurers by averaging
out the cost of hospital treatment across the industry. Money is then transferred from private health insurers with younger
healthier policyholders with lower average claims payments (such as nib) to those insurers with older and less healthy
policyholders and which have higher average claims payments. The scheme applies to all health insurance business (CHIP)
but does not apply to International Students Health Insurance or International Workers Health Insurance. As of 1 July 2015, the
Commonwealth Health Minister retains overall policy responsibility for the risk equalisation scheme, with APRA having a similar
role administering the risk equalisation scheme as PHIAC had administrating the risk equalisation scheme prior to 1 July 2015.
53
annual report 20163. RISK MANAGEMENT continued
b) Insurance risk continued
• Coverage Requirements: The Act limits the types of treatments that private health insurers can offer as part of their health
insurance business (CHIP). International Students Health Insurance products coverage requirements are set out in a Deed
between the insurer and the Commonwealth, while the health services offered under International Workers Health Insurance
cover are largely at the discretion of the insurer.
• Premium Approval: Under the Act, insurers can only increase CHIP premiums with the approval of the Minister. The Minister
must approve the amounts unless the Minister is satisfied that the change would be contrary to the public interest. Insurers
can ordinarily only seek one premium increase per annum. International Students Health Insurance products can raise
premiums in line with the requirements set out in the Deed, which is also ordinarily annually and requires notification to the
Department of Health. International Workers Health Insurance product premiums are not regulated by the Act or under any
Deed with the Commonwealth.
In New Zealand, private health insurance is governed by the Insurance (Prudential Supervision) Act 2010 which requires an
insurer to be licensed and requires a licensed insurer to:
• Maintain and disclose a financial strength rating;
• Maintain a fit and proper policy, which apply to Directors and other relevant officers;
• Maintain a risk management program;
• Have an appointed actuary and ensure the actuarial information contained in or used in the preparation of financial statements
is reviewed by the appointed actuary; and
• Maintain a solvency margin over the minimum solvency capital required under the solvency standards for non life business
issued by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand.
c) Market risk
i) Fair value interest rate risk
The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to
cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk if the borrowings are
carried at fair value. The Group’s borrowings at variable rate were denominated in Australian and New Zealand Dollars.
As at the end of the reporting period, the Group had the following variable rate borrowings outstanding:

The Group’s other interest rate risks arise from receivables, financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and cash and
cash equivalents All other receivables are non-interest bearing. There is an interest-bearing component of financial assets at fair
value through profit and loss. nib receives advice from its asset consultants, JANA Implemented Consulting and Nikko Asset
Management New Zealand Limited. The Group has adopted an investment strategy that delivers a diversified portfolio with a
heavier weighting to defensive assets versus growth assets. Defensive assets consist of Australian and overseas fixed interest
investments and cash and cash equivalents.

ii) Foreign exchange risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency translation risk through
its subsidiaries located in Brazil, Canada, New Zealand, Thailand, United Kingdom and United States. In accordance with the
policy set out in Note 1(e), foreign exchange gains or losses arising on translation of the Group’s foreign operations to the Group’s
Australian dollar presentation currency are recognised directly in equity. Foreign exchange gains or losses arising on assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised directly in profit and loss. The Group does not hedge this risk.

iii) Price risk
The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk. This arises from investments held by the Group and classified on the
balance sheet as either available-for-sale or at fair value through profit or loss. The Group is not exposed to commodity price
risk. To manage its price risk the Group has adopted an investment strategy which delivers a diversified portfolio with a heavier
weighting to defensive assets versus growth assets.
Post-tax profit for the year would increase/decrease as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as at fair value

Methods and assumptions used in preparing sensitivity analysis
The post-tax effect on profit and equity of movements in foreign exchange, interest rate and price have been calculated using
‘reasonably possible’ changes in the risk variables, based on recent interest rate and market movements.
An interest rate change of 100 basis points will directly affect interest received on cash and cash equivalents and other
receivables. An interest rate change of 100 basis points will inversely affect the unit price of fixed interest investments; this
change has been calculated by multiplying the average duration of underlying investments in each portfolio by the interest rate
change. All other investments are not directly affected by interest rate changes but would be revalued through profit or loss as
their unit price changes.
d) Credit risk
Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, financial assets and deposits
with banks and financial institutions, favourable derivative financial instruments, as well as credit exposures to policyholders
and the Department of Human Services (Private Health Insurance Premiums Reduction Scheme). nib receives advice from
its asset consultants, JANA Implemented Consulting, who provide a rating of investment managers to nib as part of their
advice. Credit risk for premium receivables are minimal due to the diversification of policyholders. The Private Health Insurance
Premiums Reduction Scheme receivable is due from a government organisation under legislation.
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date is the carrying
amount, net of any provisions for impairment loss, as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements.
The Group does not have any material credit risk to any single debtor or group of debtors under financial instruments entered into.
The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit
ratings (if available) or to historical information about counterparty default rates.
Other receivables
Counterparties with external credit rating
Counterparties without external credit rating
Group 1 – new debtors (less than 6 months)
Group 2 – existing debtors (more than 6 months) with no defaults in the past
Group 3 – existing debtors (more than 6 months) with some defaults in the past.
All defaults were fully recovered.

1. The financial assets at fair value through profit and loss with credit risk are held in unit trusts, the above table summarises the underlying investments of the unit trusts.
e) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding
through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close-out market positions. The Group manages
liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and holds a high percentage of highly liquid investments.
The bank overdraft within borrowings comprises the closing positive balances of the bank account, adjusted for unpresented
cheques and outstanding deposits. There are no overdraft facilities.
Maturities of financial liabilities
The tables below analyse the Group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the

annual report 20164. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
a) Fair value hierarchy
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are
recognised and measured at fair value in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs
used in determining fair value, the Group classifies its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting
standards. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.
The following tables present the Group’s assets and liabilities measured and recognised at fair value at 30 June 2016 and
30 June 2015.

There were no transfers between level 1 and level 2 during the year.
The Group’s policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of the fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the
reporting period.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss) is
based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the
current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.
Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as financial assets at fair value through profit and
loss) is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group
is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in active markets (for example available-for-sale financial
assets) is determined using valuation techniques. The Group use a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based
on market conditions existing at each balance date. These instruments are included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
58
nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016b) Valuation techniques used determine fair values
Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:
• The use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments.
• Other techniques, such as discounted cash flow analysis, are used to determine fair value for the remaining
financial instruments.
All of the resulting fair value estimates for financial instruments are included in level 2 except for contingent consideration payable
explained in c) below.
The Group obtains independent valuations for its freehold land and buildings at least every three years.
At the end of each reporting period, the Directors update their assessment of the fair value of each property, taking into account
the most recent independent valuations. Freehold land and buildings were independently valued by a member of the Australian
Property Institute as at 30 June 2016.
All resulting fair value estimates for properties are included at level 3.
c) Fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (level 3)
The following table presents the changes in level 3 instruments for the year ended 30 June 2016:

i) Transfers between levels 2 and 3
There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the year. There were also no changes during the
year to any of the valuation techniques applied as of 30 June 2015.
ii) Valuation inputs and relationships to fair value
The following table summarises the quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in level 3 fair
value measurements:

59
annual report 20164. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT continued
c) Fair value measurements using significant observable inputs (level 3) continued
iii) Valuation process
The Group engages external, independent and qualified valuers to determine the fair value of the Group’s land and buildings
at least every three years. As at 30 June 2016, freehold land and buildings were independently valued by a member of the
Australian Property Institute.
The finance department of the Group includes a team that performs the valuations of non-property assets required for financial
reporting purposes, including level 3 fair values. This team reports directly to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the Audit
Committee (AC). Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the CFO, AC and the valuation team at least
once every six months, in line with the Group’s half-yearly reporting dates.
Changes in level 2 and 3 fair values are analysed at each reporting date during the half-yearly valuation discussion between
the CFO, AC and the valuation team. As part of this discussion the team presents a report that explains the reason for the fair
value movements.
d) Fair values of other financial instruments
The Group also had another financial instrument which was not measured at fair value in the balance sheet. This had the
following fair value as at 30 June 2016:
Non-current borrowings
Bank loans
2016
2015
Carrying amount
$000

$000
Carrying amount
$000
151,867
151,878
62,501
Fair value
$000
62,524
The fair values of non-current borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current borrowing rate. They are classified
as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 4(a)) due to the use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.
The carrying value less impairment provision of other receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due
to their short-term nature.

nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 20165. SEGMENT REPORTING
a) Description of segments
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to Executive management.
The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating
segments, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director.
Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the MD/CEO that are used to make
strategic decisions.
The MD/CEO considers the business from both a geographic and product perspective and has identified five
reportable segments:
• Australian Residents Health Insurance – nib’s core product offering within the Australian private health insurance industry
• New Zealand Residents Health Insurance – nib’s core product offering within the New Zealand private health
insurance Industry
•
International (Inbound) Health Insurance – nib’s offering of health insurance products for international students and workers
• World Nomads Group – nib’s distribution of travel insurance products
• nib Options – nib’s facilitation of access to cosmetic and dental treatment both overseas and here in Australia
Although the nib Options segment does not meet the quantitative thresholds required by AASB 8, management has concluded
that the segment should be reported, as it is closely monitored by the MD/CEO as a potential growth segment and is expected
to contribute to Group revenue in the future.
b) Other segment information
The MD/CEO assesses the performance of the operating segments based on underlying operating profit. This measurement
basis excludes from the operating segments the effects of non-recurring profit on sale of the head office building, and non-
recurring expenditure such as integration costs, merger and acquisition costs, and amortisation of acquired intangibles.
No information regarding assets, liabilities and income tax is provided for individual Australian Health Insurance and International
(Inbound) Health Insurance segments to the MD/CEO. Furthermore, investment income and expenditure for Australia is not
allocated to individual Australian segments as this type of activity is driven by the central treasury function, which manages the
cash position of the Australian companies.

a) Recognition and measurement
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of
amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic
benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities as described below. The
Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into account the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics
of each arrangement.
Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows:
i) Premium revenue
Premium revenue comprises premiums from private health insurance contracts held by policyholders.
Premium revenue is recognised when it has been earned. Premium revenue is recognised from the attachment date over the
period of the contract. The attachment date is from when the insurer accepts the risk from the insured under the insurance
contract. Revenue is recognised in accordance with the pattern of the incidence of risk expected over the term of the contract.
The proportion of the premium received or receivable not earned in the income statement at the reporting date is recognised in
the balance sheet as an unearned premium liability. Any non-current portion is discounted based on expected settlement dates.
Premiums on unclosed business are brought to account using estimates based on payment cycles nominated by
the policyholder.
ii) Investment income
Net fair value gains or losses on financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in the period.
Rental revenue from leasing of investment properties is recognised in the period in which it is receivable, as this represents the
pattern of service rendered through the provision of the properties.
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. When a receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying
amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the
instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loans is recognised using the
original effective interest rate.
iii) Outwards reinsurance
Premiums ceded to reinsurers under insurance contracts held by the Group are recognised as an outwards reinsurance expense
and are recognised in the income statement from the attachment date over the period of indemnity of the reinsurance contract in
accordance with the expected pattern of the incidence of risk ceded.
iv) Revenue from travel insurance commission
Revenue in the form of commissions is recognised when the sale of an insurance policy to a customer occurs. Revenue is also
generated on travel services activities and recognised as the service is performed.

annual report 20168. TAXATION continued
d) Recognition and measurement
The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the
applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary
differences and to unused tax losses. Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences
arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in the consolidated financial statements.
However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction
other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss.
Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting
date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability
is settled.
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 liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of
investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences
and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities
and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where
the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the
liability simultaneously.
nib holdings limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities are a tax consolidated group. The World Nomads
Group Australian entities joined this tax consolidation group during the year. Also, nib Options pty limited and its wholly-owned
Australian controlled entities are a tax consolidated group. As a consequence, the entities within each group are taxed as a
single entity and the deferred tax assets and liabilities of these entities are set off in the consolidated financial statements.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other
comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity, respectively.

the presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows, 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 and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank
overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.
b) Risk exposure
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk is discussed in Note 3(c)(i). The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date
is the carrying amount of each class of cash and cash equivalents mentioned above.

As of 30 June 2016 and 2015 no receivables were past due but not impaired.
a) Recognition and measurement
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest rate method, less provision for impairment.
Collectability of trade and other receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are
written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment is used where there is objective evidence that the
Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. When a receivable for which an
impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the provision
for impairment account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in profit
or loss.
i) Amounts due from policyholders
Amounts due from policyholders are initially recognised at fair value, being the amounts due. They are subsequently measured
at fair value which is approximated by taking this initially recognised amount and reducing it for impairment as appropriate.
A provision for impairment of receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect
all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The amount of the provision is the difference between the
asset’s carrying amount and the value of estimated future cash flows. The impairment charge is recognised in the profit or loss.
b) Interest rate risk
Information about the Group’s exposure to interest rate risk in relation to other receivables is provided in Note 3.
c) Fair value and credit risk
Due to the short-term nature of current receivables, their carrying amount is assumed to approximate their fair value.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying amount of each class of receivables mentioned above.
d) Risk exposure
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying amount of each class of receivable mentioned
above. Refer to Note 3 for more information on the risk management policy of the Group and the credit quality of the
Group’s receivables.

Changes in fair values of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recorded in investment income in profit or loss in
Note 6.
a) Recognition and measurement
i) Investments and other financial assets
The Group classifies its financial assets into financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale
financial assets.
ii) Financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss. Initial recognition is at fair value, being acquisition cost, in the
balance sheet and subsequent measurement is at fair value with any resultant fair value gains or losses recognised in the profit
or loss.
Shares, fixed interest securities, options and units in trusts listed on stock exchanges are initially recognised at cost and the
subsequent fair value adjustment is taken as the quoted bid price of the instrument at the balance sheet date.
All purchases and sales of financial assets that require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by regulation or
market convention (“regular way” transactions) are recognised at trade date, being the date on which the Group commits to buy
or sell the asset. In cases where the point between trade and settlement exceeds this time frame, the transaction is recognised
at settlement date. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive future cash flows from the assets have expired,
or have been transferred, and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
Investments and other financial assets of nib holdings limited are also designated as at fair value through the profit or loss as they
are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented investment policy, and
information is provided internally on that basis to the entity’s Key Management Personnel.
b) Risk exposure
Information about the Group’s exposure to price risk and interest rate risk is provided in Note 3.

a) Recognition and measurement
Direct acquisition costs incurred in obtaining health insurance contracts, including broker commissions, are deferred and
recognised as assets where they can be reliably measured and where it is probable that they will give rise to premium revenue
that will be recognised in the consolidated income statement in subsequent reporting periods. This pattern of amortisation
corresponds to the earning pattern of the corresponding premium revenue.
b) Critical accounting judgements and estimates
i) Australian Residents Health Insurance
Deferred acquisition costs are amortised on a straight line basis over a period of 5 years (2015: 6 years), in accordance with
the expected pattern of the incidence of risk under the open ended insurance contracts to which they relate, which includes
expectations of customers remaining insured.
The Group pays an upfront commission to retail brokers on signing up new members to the business. These upfront
commissions will give rise to future premium revenue beyond the current period and are able to be measured and directly
associated with a particular insurance contract. The Group does not capitalise the indirect administration costs associated with
acquiring new members due to the difficulty in measurement. The Group considers the duration of a health insurance contract
to be an open ended agreement as the Group stands ready to continue to insure its customers under continuing policies.
The Group uses average retention rates to determine the appropriate customer contract life and related amortisation period
for customers who purchase insurance through these broker channels. The analysis included extrapolating historical lapse
rates for broker acquired customers but truncating the data at 10 years in order to allow for the inherent distortion created by
extrapolating historical data. The analysis identified the amortisation period to be 5 years. The Group re-performs this analysis at
least every six months for reassessment. A decrease in the expected contract periods of one year would increase amortisation
expense by $3.0m for 30 June 2016.
The recoverability of the related deferred acquisition costs is also considered as part of the liability adequacy test performed. As
described in Note 20, the Group has no deficiency in the unearned premium liability at 30 June 2016.

nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016Change in critical accounting judgements and estimates
On 1 April 2016, the amortisation period was revised to five years. The net effect of the changes in the current financial year was
an increase in amortisation expense of $1.8 million.
Assuming the deferred acquisition costs are held and amortised at a rate of five years, the amortisation in future years in relation
to these deferred acquisition costs will increase by the following amounts:

General insurers amortise deferred acquisition costs usually over one year, as their policies generally have a defined term of one
year. With health insurance, if the contract term is considered to be only the term to which the customer has agreed to, or paid
to, the deferred acquisition cost would be amortised over a period of between one and two months, which is the period paid
in advance by the customer. However, the Group believes that does not reflect the open ended nature of a health insurance
contract, the contract periods to which future premium revenue will arise, nor the expected pattern of the incidence of risk under
the insurance contracts to which the costs relate. For these reasons the Group believes the currently adopted treatment is
more appropriate.
ii) nib New Zealand
The Group pays commissions to retail brokers on signing up new members to the business. The majority of these commissions
are trailing commissions paid to retail brokers over the contract period of one year. These are written off over the life of the
contract, being one year. Consistent with the Australian Residents Health Insurance business, the Group does not capitalise the
indirect administration costs associated with acquiring new members due to the difficulty in identifying and associating those
indirect costs with acquiring particular insurance contracts.
In addition to the above, a small remaining balance of upfront commissions are written off over the expected life of
the policyholder.

nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016a) Valuations of land and buildings
The valuation basis of land and buildings is fair value being the amounts for which the properties could be exchanged between
willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, based on current prices in an active market for similar properties in the same
location and condition. Freehold land and buildings were independently valued by a member of the Australian Property Institute
as at 30 June 2016. It is the opinion of the Directors that this valuation represents the fair value of the property at 30 June 2016.
Carrying amounts that would have been recognised if land and buildings were stated at cost
If freehold land and buildings were stated at cost on an historical cost basis, the amounts would be as follows:

b) Recognition and measurement
Land and buildings (except for investment properties) are shown at fair value, based on periodic, but at least triennial, valuations
by external independent valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. Any accumulated depreciation at the date of
revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated to the revalued amount
of the asset. All other property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is
probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured
reliably. The carrying amount of a replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss
during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Increases in the carrying amounts arising on the revaluation of land and buildings are credited, net of tax, to other reserves in
the shareholders’ equity. To the extent that the increase reverses a decrease previously recognised in profit or loss, the increase
is first recognised in profit or loss. Decreases that reverse previous increases of the same asset are first charged against the
revaluation reserves directly in equity to the extent of the remaining reserve attributable to the asset; all other decreases are
charged to profit or loss.
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or
revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
– Buildings
25 to 40 years
– Plant and equipment
3 to 20 years
– Leasehold improvements
3 to 10 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate at each reporting date. 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 (see Note 16(a)(v)).
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss.
When revalued assets are sold, it is Group policy to transfer the amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to
retained earnings.

i) Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable
assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible
assets. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and is carried at cost less accumulated
impairment losses.
ii) Software
Costs incurred in developing products or systems and costs incurred in acquiring software and licences that will contribute to
future period financial benefits through revenue generation and/or cost reduction are capitalised to software. Costs capitalised
include external direct costs of materials and service and direct payroll and payroll related costs of employees’ time spent on the
project. Amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis over periods generally ranging from two and a half years to five years.
78
nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016iii) Brands and trademarks
Brands and trademarks acquired with IMAN Australian Health Plans Pty Ltd have a definite useful life of five years and are carried
at cost less accumulated amortisation.
Brands and trademarks acquired with nib nz limited (formerly TOWER Medical Insurance Limited) in November 2012 have a
useful life of two years and are carried at their fair value at the date of acquisition less accumulated amortisation.
Brands and trademarks acquired with World Nomads Group in July 2015 have an indefinite useful life and are carried at fair value
at the date of acquisition.
iv) Customer contracts
Customer contracts acquired as part of a business combination are recognised separately from goodwill. The customer
contracts are carried at their fair value at the date of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Amortisation is calculated based on the timing of projected cash flows of the contracts over their estimated useful lives, which
is approximately four years for IMAN Australian Health Plans Pty Ltd, 10 years for nib nz limited and approximately 2.5 years for
World Nomads Group.
v) Impairment
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life and are not subject to amortisation are tested annually for
impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are
tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable
cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units).
Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each
reporting date.
b) Impairment tests for goodwill and indefinite life intangibles
Indefinite life intangibles such as brands and trademarks are allocated to a cash generating unit (CGU) which may be at a level
lower than operating segments. Goodwill is allocated at an operating segment level to a CGU or group of CGUs.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on a value-in-use calculation. The value-in-use calculation uses cash
flow projections based on financial budgets and forecast forward projections approved by management covering a three-year
period. The recoverable amount exceeds the carrying value of the goodwill or indefinite life intangibles.

annual report 2016
16. INTANGIBLE ASSETS continued
c) Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations
The assumptions used for the cash flow projections for the first three years are in line with the current Board approved budget
and forecast forward projections. Key assumptions include policyholder growth, claims ratio and the discount factor.
Policyholder growth is calculated by forecasting the number of sales each month based on budgeted advertising and promotions
spend, less the number of expected lapses each month. Claims ratios are targeted that generate price increases that maintain
price competitiveness, cover expected increases in claims costs, do not adversely affect the funds capital adequacy position
and enable funding of future business growth.
Cash flows beyond the three-year period are extrapolated in to perpetuity assuming a growth factor of 3.0%. The Group has
applied a post-tax discount rate to discount the forecast future attributable post tax cash flows.
The following table sets out the key assumptions for those CGUs that have significant goodwill allocated to them:

a) Recognition and measurement
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at
amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised
in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan
facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be
drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable
that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over
the period of the facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or
expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another
party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss
as other income or finance costs.
Borrowings are classified as non-current liabilities if the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at
least 12 months after the reporting period.
b) Secured liabilities
During the year, nib holdings limited established a $50 million variable rate loan facility with NAB and drew down $35 million
of the existing $50 million loan facility with ANZ. Both loans relate to the acquisition of World Nomads Group with maturity and
repayment being 18 December 2017. The covenants on these loan facilities are the same as the existing covenants on the
NZD$70 million loan detailed below.
Both facilities are variable rate Australian denominated loans which are carried at amortised cost.
nib nz holdings limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of nib holdings limited, has an existing NZ$70 million variable rate term
loan facility in relation to the acquisition of nib nz limited with maturity and repayment at the end of three years being 18
December 2017.
The bank loan is secured by the shares in nib nz holdings limited and a negative pledge that imposes the following covenants on
the Group. The negative pledge states that the Group will ensure that the following financial ratios are met:
i. The Group Gearing Ratio will not be more than 35%
ii. The Group Interest Cover Ratio will not be less than 5:1.
As at 30 June 2016 the Group Gearing Ratio was 28.1% and the Group Interest Ratio Cover Ratio was 27:1.
nib holdings limited has provided a guarantee and indemnity to the ANZ Bank New Zealand on behalf of nib nz holdings limited in
respect of the NZD$70 million term loan facility.
nib holdings limited has subordinated any amounts owing to it from nib nz holdings limited and nib nz limited in favour of all other
creditors of these companies.
c) Available debt facility
nib holdings limited has a AUD$50 million variable rate loan facility with ANZ of which AUD$35 million was drawn down on
17 August 2015 with $15 million remaining in the facility as at 30 June 2016.
d) Risk exposure

a) Actuarial methods and critical accounting judgements and estimates
Provision is made at the period end for the liability for outstanding claims which is measured as the central estimate of the
expected payments against claims incurred but not settled at the reporting date under private health insurance contracts issued
by the Group. The expected future payments include those in relation to claims reported but not yet paid and claims incurred
but not yet reported. This ‘central estimate’ of outstanding claims is an estimate which is intended to contain no intentional over
or under estimation. For this reason the inherent uncertainty in the central estimate must also be considered and a risk margin
is added. The estimated cost of claims includes allowances for Risk Equalisation Special Account (RESA) consequences and
claims handling expense. The Group takes all reasonable steps to ensure that it has appropriate information regarding its claims
exposures. However, given the uncertainty in establishing claims provisions, it is likely that the final outcome will prove to be
different from the original liability established.
In calculating the estimated cost of unpaid claims the Group uses estimation techniques based upon statistical analysis of
historical experience. Allowance is made, however, for changes or uncertainties which may create distortions in the underlying
statistics or which might cause the cost of unsettled claims to increase or reduce when compared with the cost of previously
settled claims, including changes in the Group’s processes which might accelerate or slow down the development and/or
recording of paid or incurred claims, compared with the statistics from previous periods. The calculation is determined taking into
account one month of actual post balance date claims.
The risk margin is based on an analysis of the past experience of the Group. This analysis examines the volatility of past
payments that is not explained by the model adopted to determine the central estimate. This past volatility is assumed to
be indicative of the future volatility. The central estimates are calculated gross of any risk equalisation recoveries. A separate
estimate and risk margin is made of the amounts that will be recoverable from or payable to the RESA based upon the
gross provision.

annual report 201619. OUTSTANDING CLAIMS LIABILITY continued
a) Actuarial methods and critical accounting judgements and estimates continued
The outstanding claims estimate for Australian segments is derived based on three valuation classes, namely hospital and
prostheses services combined, medical services, and general treatment. For the New Zealand segment the outstanding claims
estimate is derived based on two valuation classes, surgical and medical. This analysis is supplemented by more granular
analysis within classes as appropriate.
In calculating the estimated cost of unpaid claims for Australian Residents Health Insurance and New Zealand Health Insurance,
two methods are used. For service months April 2016 and earlier for hospital and medical, and for all months for general
treatment, a chain ladder method is used; this assumes that the development pattern of the current claims will be consistent with
historical experience. For hospital and medical, for the service months of May 2016 and June 2016 the Bornhuetter-Ferguson
method is given some weight, which progressively blends payment experience and prior forecasts of incurred costs.
For International Workers Health Insurance and International Students Health Insurance a chain ladder method is used for all
service months for the valuation of the cost of unpaid claims.
As claims for health funds are generally settled within one year, no discounting of claims is usually applied as the difference
between the undiscounted value of claims payments and the present value of claims payments is not likely to be material.
Accordingly, reasonable changes in assumptions would not have a material impact on the outstanding claims balance.

Insurance 5.8% (June 2015: 8.4%) of the underlying liability has been estimated to equate to a probability of adequacy of 95% for
the Group. The risk margin within each territory allows for diversification across the entity. The benefit of diversification across the
Group is again allocated to the Australian Residents Health Insurance segment.

nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016c) Process used to determine assumptions
A description of the processes used to determine these assumptions is provided below:
i) Chain Ladder Development Factors
Chain ladder development factors were selected based on observations of historical claim payment experience. Particular
attention was given to the development of the most recent 12 months.
ii) Bornhuetter-Ferguson Unpaid Factors
Bornhuetter-Ferguson Unpaid Factors were selected based on historical patterns of payment (by development) to ultimate
incurred claims. That is, the proportion of ultimate incurred claims to be paid by development month is selected based on
observations from the historical development. This “unpaid proportion” is then multiplied by a prior forecast of incurred claims for
each service month to determine the outstanding claims estimate.
iii) Expense rate
Claims handling expenses were calculated by reference to past experience of total claims handling costs as a percentage of total
past payments.
iv) Discount rate
As claims for health funds are generally settled within one year, no discounting of claims is applied as the difference between the
undiscounted value of claims payments and the present value of claims payments is not likely to be material.
v) Risk equalisation allowance
In simplified terms, each organisation is required to contribute to the risk equalisation pool or is paid from the pool to equalise
their hospital claims exposure to policyholders aged over 55 years of age and in respect of high cost claims. This is the
allowance made in respect of the claims incurred but not yet paid.
vi) Risk margin
The risk margin has been based on an analysis of the past experience of the Group. This analysis examined the volatility of past
payments that has not been explained by the model adopted to determine the central estimate. This past volatility has been
assumed to be indicative of the future volatility and has been set at a level estimated to equate to a probability of adequacy of
95% at a consolidated level (June 2015: 95%).
d) Sensitivity analysis
i) Summary
The Group conducts sensitivity analysis to quantify the exposure to risk of changes in the key underlying variables. The
valuations included in the reported results are calculated using certain assumptions about these variables as disclosed above.
The movement in any key variable will impact the performance and equity of the Group. The tables below describe how a
change in each assumption will affect the insurance liabilities:

No deficiency was identified as at 30 June 2016 and 2015 that resulted in an unexpired risk liability needing to be recognised.
c) Critical accounting judgements and estimates
A liability adequacy test is required to be performed for the period over which the insurer is “on risk” in respects of premiums paid
in advance. At each reporting date, the adequacy of the unearned premium liability is assessed by considering current estimates
of all expected future cash flows relating to future claims arising from the rights and obligations created. If the sum of the present
value of the expected future cash flows relating to future claims plus the additional risk margin to reflect the inherent uncertainty
in the central estimate exceeds the unearned premium liability, less related intangible assets and related deferred acquisition
costs, then the unearned premium is deemed to be deficient, with the deficiency being recorded in the income statement and an
unexpired risk liability created. The Group applies a risk margin to achieve the same probability of sufficiency for future claims as
is achieved by the estimate of the outstanding claims liability, refer to Note 19(b). No deficiency was identified as at 30 June 2016
and 2015 that resulted in an unexpired risk liability needing to be recognised.
This test is also extended beyond recognised unearned premium liability to include premiums renewable until the next repricing
review, usually 1 April each year.

Premium payback early settlement offer
At their policy renewal, eligible premium payback customers have been offered a graduated early settlement based on the date
they would become eligible for the full premium payback benefit, contingent on their claims history.
Customers received the settlement offer around two months before their policy renewal. The first settlement offers were made in
mid-June 2015 for August 2015 policy renewals. The last settlement offers were made in May 2016 for July 2016 policy renewals,
the offer expires on 31 August 2016. 100% of the available offers have been included in the current portion of the premium
payback liability on the balance sheet. As customers may or may not accept the available premium payback settlement offer and
recognising that 100% acceptance is unlikely, it’s estimated for policyholders that accept the offer, $1.8 million of total premium
payback liability could be settled within the next 2 months. This is in addition to $0.6 million of the premium payback liability that
is expected to be settled within the next 2 months in the normal course of business.

a) Risk exposure
Information about the Group’s exposure to interest rate risk in relation to premium payback liability is provided in Note 3(c)(i).
b) Actuarial methods and critical accounting judgements and estimates
The premium payback liability represents the accrued amount of premium expected to be repaid to certain New Zealand health
insurance policyholders. A number of nib nz limited’s health insurance policies have a benefit whereby policyholders receive a
proportion of premiums paid less claims received over the life of their policy, “premium payback”, if certain conditions are met.
This liability represents a long term health insurance contract liability. The liability was determined based on the discounted
value of accumulated excess of premiums over claims at an individual policy level, adjusted for GST recoveries and expected
future lapses.
A risk margin at 95% probability of sufficiency was estimated by assuming there are no future lapses. Most of the premium
payback reserve is held in respect of a group of customers where the historical lapse rate is already very low.
The following assumptions have been made in determining the premium payback liability:
Lapse rate until 3 years from premium payback date
Lapse rate within 3 years of premium payback date
Expense rate
Discount rate for succeeding and following year
Risk margin
The risk margin has been estimated to equate to a 95% probability of adequacy (2015: 95%).

i) Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave are recognised in payables in respect of
employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are
settled. The portion not expected to be settled within 12 months is discounted based on expected settlement dates. Liabilities for
non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rate paid or payable.
ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations
The liability for long service leave is the amount of the future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in
the current and prior periods. The liability is calculated using expected future increases in wage and salary rates and expected
settlement dates, and is discounted using G100 treasury discount rates at the balance sheet date which have the maturity dates
approximating to the terms of nib’s obligations.
iii) Bonus plans
A liability for employee benefits in the form of bonus plans is recognised in other creditors when at least one of the following
conditions is met:
• there are formal terms in the plan for determining the amount of the benefit, or
• the amounts to be paid are determined before the time of completion of the financial report, or
• past practice gives clear evidence of the amount of the obligation.
Liabilities for bonus plans are expected to be settled within 12 months and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid
when they are settled.

Directors’ retirement benefits are provided for in the financial statements. Non-Executive Directors of nib health funds limited
employed before 24 November 2005 are entitled to a lump sum retirement benefit based on number of years’ service.
Non-Executive Directors commencing after 24 November 2005 are not entitled to retirement benefits.
v) Termination benefits
Liabilities for termination benefits, not in connection with the acquisition of an entity or operation, are recognised when a detailed
plan for the terminations has been developed and a valid expectation has been raised with those employees affected that the
terminations will be carried out without possibility of withdrawal. The liabilities for termination benefits are recognised as current
provisions, as liabilities for termination benefits are expected to be settled within 12 months of reporting date.

The deferred profit relates to the sale and leaseback of the head office building at 22 Honeysuckle Drive, Newcastle in February
2016. The excess of the proceeds received over fair value relating to the leaseback portion of the building was deferred and
is being amortised over the lease term of 15 years. In FY16, profit on sale of head office building of $1,416,224 and deferred
profit on sale and leaseback of head office building of $135,931 was recognised in profit or loss relating to this transaction. The
subsequent leasing agreement is treated as an operating lease. The non-current part of the deferred profit will be amortised
between 2016 and the end of the lease term.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from
the proceeds. If the entity reacquires its own equity instruments, for example as the result of a share buy-back, those instruments
are deducted from equity and the associated shares are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss and the
consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost (net of income taxes) is recognised directly in equity.
Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the company in proportion to
the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. On a show of hands every holder of ordinary shares present at a meeting in
person or by proxy, is entitled to one vote, and upon a poll each share is entitled to one vote.
ii) Employee Share Trust
The Group has formed a trust to administer the Group’s executive management Short-Term Incentive and Long Term-Incentive
share plans. This trust is consolidated, as the substance of the relationship is that the trust is controlled by the Group.
Shares held by the nib Holdings Ltd Share Ownership Plan Trust are disclosed as treasury shares and deducted from
contributed equity.

e) Recognition and measurement
i) 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.
ii) 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 additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all
dilutive potential ordinary shares.

annual report 201628. EARNINGS PER SHARE continued
f) Information concerning the classification of shares
i) Performance rights
Performance rights granted to employees under the nib holdings Long-Term Incentive Plan are considered to be potential
ordinary shares and are only included in the determination of diluted earnings per share to the extent to which they are
dilutive. The performance rights have not been included in the determination of basic earnings per share. Details relating to the
performance rights are set out in the Remuneration Report on page 41.
The total 2,238,071 performance rights granted (2015 – 2,001,483) are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings
per share because they are contingently issuable ordinary shares and conditions were not satisfied at 30 June 2016. These
performance rights could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future.
29. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can
continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to
reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group has a number of levers, including adjusting the amount of dividends
paid to shareholders, returning capital to shareholders, issuing new shares, selling assets, raising or reducing debt or buying
back shares.
nib holdings limited
The Group through earnings and capital management have achieved a return on equity of 20% or greater for the last
three years and continues to target return on equity in the order of 20%. The return on equity as at 30 June 2016 is 25.8%
(2015: 23.1%). While improvement to return on equity can be made through increased profitability, it is also important that capital
be managed appropriately, therefore, if funds are not required for strategic reasons the Group will consider a range of capital
management initiatives.
At 30 June 2016 the Group had available capital of $6.8 million above our internal benchmark (after allowing for the payment of a
fully franked final ordinary dividend of 9.0 cents per share, totalling $39.5 million, in October 2016).

nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016nib health funds limited
nib health funds limited, a controlled entity, is required to comply with the Solvency and Capital Adequacy Standards under
Schedule 2 and 3 of the Private Health Insurance (Health Benefits Fund Administration) Rules 2007, the Rules are made for the
purposes of Part 4-4 of the Private Health Insurance Act 2007.
To comply with the Solvency Standard, nib health funds limited:
i. must ensure that, at all times, the value of cash must be equal to or greater than a specified cash management amount,
plus any solvency supervisory adjustment (Section 4.2 of the Solvency Standard),
ii. must have, and comply with, a board endorsed, liquidity management plan designed to ensure compliance with the
solvency requirements described above, and set minimum liquidity requirements and management action triggers
(Section 4.3 of the Solvency Standard).
To comply with the Capital Adequacy Standard, nib health funds limited:
i. must ensure that at all times the value of its assets is not less than the amounts calculated under Section 4.2 (a) and (b) of
the Capital Adequacy Standard (Capital Adequacy Requirement),
ii. must have, and comply with, a written, board endorsed capital management policy.
nib health funds limited has a capital management plan which establishes a target for capital held in excess of the regulatory
requirement; the aim is to keep a sufficient buffer in line with the Board’s attitude to and tolerance for risk. The internal capital
target ensures nib has a minimum level of capital given certain stressed capital scenarios. This currently approximates to 14.0%
of total projected premiums for the next 12 months.
Any capital in excess of the benchmark, taking a 12-month forward looking view, will be reduced by way of dividend to
nib holdings limited. nib health funds limited paid dividends of $12.2 million in September 2015, $18.0 million in December 2015
and $13.4 million in March 2016 to nib holdings limited.
The surplus assets over benchmark at 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2015 were as follows:

nib nz limited
nib nz limited, a controlled entity, is required to comply with the Solvency Standard for non life insurance business published
by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ). The Solvency Standards determine the Minimum Solvency Capital required. A
requirement of nib nz limited’s insurance license is that it maintains capital above the Minimum Solvency Capital.
The overriding objective underpinning nib nz limited’s capital management approach is to operate with a level of capital judged to
be commercially prudent and within the bounds of the Board’s risk appetite which achieves a balance between:
• maintaining a buffer above the RBNZ Minimum Solvency Requirement (MSR) for nib nz limited (as defined by the IPSA
Solvency Standard for Non-life Insurance Business);
• maintaining a level of capital that ensures an appropriate financial strength rating; and
• avoiding holding an excessive level of capital, which would otherwise act to reduce returns on capital for the Group.
The benchmark capital adequacy coverage ratio is 1.75x plus $NZ10 million.
Any capital in excess of the benchmark, taking a 12-month forward looking view, will be reduced by way of dividend to
nib nz holdings limited, unless management decide to retain funds for strategic purposes. nib nz limited paid dividends of
$NZ12.0 million in June 2016 to nib nz holdings limited.

As part of its role as regulator of New Zealand insurance companies, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) reviews solvency
returns. The RBNZ has recently queried the manner in which certain matters have been dealt with in nib nz limited’s FY15
solvency calculation. At the time of signing the Annual Report, nib nz limited is working with the RBNZ to resolve these queries.
While the discussions are not yet completed, nib nz limited has made a change to its solvency calculations regarding the
treatment of deferred tax. This change has been reflected in the current and prior year numbers disclosed above.
While there is a possibility of further changes following the resolution of the remaining queries, the table above reflects our best
estimate at the time of signing the Annual Report. Further changes (if any) are not expected to cause nib nz limited to fall below
the RBNZ’s minimum solvency requirements.
The change to the treatment of deferred tax has resulted in a drop below nib nz limited’s internal capital target. The internal target
will be reviewed following completion of discussions with the RBNZ.

The goodwill is attributable to the future profitability of the acquired business. None of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.
a) Acquisition related costs
Total acquisition related costs are $3.2 million, of which $2.6 million has been incurred in the current period and are included in
other expenses in profit or loss and in operating cash flows in the statement of cash flows.
b) Revenue and profit contribution
The acquired business contributed $49.9 million to Group income and $7.6 million to net profit before tax for the period 1 August
2015 to 30 June 2016.
If the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2015, consolidated operating revenue and net profit before tax for the year
ended 30 June 2016 are estimated to have been $1,879.5 million and $131.9 million respectively, based on historical WNG
management accounts.
c) Acquired receivables
The fair value of acquired receivables is $4.4 million and is expected to be fully collectable.
d) Contingent assets and liabilities
Prior to acquisition, WNG had identified a potential miscalculation of stamp duty that may have resulted in an underpayment
of the duty they remitted to the relevant State Revenues on behalf of their underwriting partners. Although WNG believe
responsibility for stamp duty lies with their underwriting partners, WNG may have an exposure for the potential miscalculation of
stamp duty. The extent of this exposure, if any is unknown. WNG has notified its Professional Indemnity insurer.
A condition as part of the acquisition is that $3 million is held in escrow to cover the nib holdings group from any potential loss.

The goodwill is attributable to the future profitability of the acquired business. None of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.
a) Acquisition related costs
Total acquisition related costs are $1.0 million of which $0.2 million has been incurred in the current period and are included in
other expenses in profit or loss and in operating cash flows in the statement of cash flows.
b) Revenue and profit contribution
The acquired business contributed $16.1 million to Group revenues and $1.9 million to net profit before tax for the period
1 December 2015 to 30 June 2016.
If the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2015, consolidated operating revenue and net profit before tax for the year ended
30 June 2016 are estimated to have been $1,887.0 million and $133.8 million respectively.

c) Recognition and measurement
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, including business combinations
involving entities or businesses under common control, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired.
The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities
incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent
consideration arrangement and the fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Acquisition-related costs are
expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination, are
with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the
Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate
share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date
fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets
acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary
acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a
bargain purchase.
Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present
value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a
similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.
Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are
subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

h) Recognition and measurement
The fair value of performance rights granted under the nib holdings Long-Term Incentive Plan is recognised as an employee
benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the
fair value of the performance rights granted, which includes any market performance conditions but excludes the impact of any
service and non-market performance vesting conditions and the impact of any non-vesting conditions. Non-market vesting
conditions are included in assumptions about the number of performance rights that are expected to vest. The total expense is
recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At
the end of each period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of performance rights that are expected to vest based on
the non-marketing vesting conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a
corresponding adjustment to equity.
The nib holdings Long-Term Incentive Plan is administered by the nib Holdings Ltd Share Ownership Plan Trust; see Note 24(d)(i).
When the performance rights are exercised, the trust transfers the appropriate amount of shares to the employee.
Under the Employee Share Acquisition (tax exempt) Plan, the nib Salary Sacrifice Plan and Matching Plan and the Short-Term
Performance Incentive, shares are acquired on-market and expensed.

nib holdings limitedNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDFor the year ended 30 June 2016a) Recognition and measurement
The financial information for the parent entity, nib holdings limited, has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated
financial statements, except as set out below.
i) Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities are accounted for at cost in the financial statements of
nib holdings limited. Dividends received from associates are recognised in the parent entity’s profit or loss, rather than being
deducted from the carrying amount of these investments.
ii) Tax consolidation legislation
nib holdings limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidated legislation.
The head entity, nib holdings limited, and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group account for their own current
and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a
standalone taxpayer in its own right.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, nib holdings limited 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.
The entities have also entered into a tax funding agreement under which the wholly-owned entities fully compensate nib holdings
limited for any current tax payable assumed and are compensated by nib holdings limited for any current tax receivable and
deferred tax assets relating to unused tax losses or unused tax credits that are transferred to nib holdings limited under the tax
consolidation legislation. The funding amounts are determined by reference to the amounts recognised in the wholly-owned
entities’ financial statements.
The amounts receivable/payable under the tax funding agreement is due upon receipt of the funding advice from the head entity,
which is issued as soon as practicable after the end of each financial year. The head entity may also require payment of interim
funding amounts to assist with its obligations to pay tax instalments.
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as current amounts
receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group.
Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are
recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly-owned tax consolidated entities.

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 is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the
directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial
Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted
our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply
with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error.
In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the consolidated
entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well
as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations
Act 2001.
