OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS’ Your directors present their report, together with the financial statements of the Group, being the Company and its controlled entities for the financial year ended 30 June 2009. Directors The name of the directors in office at any time during or since the end of the year are: John R Westwood Anthony Mankarios Thomas D J Love Christopher C Hext Directors have been in office since the start of the financial year to the date of this report. Company Secretary The following person held the position of company secretary at the end of the financial year Gary J. Guild. Mr Guild is a member of the Australian Institute of Management, Professional Fellow National Institute of Accountants, Fellow of the Taxation Institute of Australia and Certified Finance and Treasury Professional. Mr Guild held a Senior Accounting and Management position with a top tier Chartered Accountant Firm for 18 years and has extensive experience with various public companies as a senior executive. Principal Activities and Significant Changes in Nature of Activities The principal activities of the consolidated group during the financial year were: • manufacturing and marketing of paint brushes, paint rollers, painter's tools and spray guns, • manufacture, marketing and exporting of Treco Garden Sheds, outdoor storage systems, avaries and pet homes, • manufacture and marketing of scaffolding and related equipment, • operation of a hire division, hiring scaffolding and related products to the building and construction industry, and • manufacture and marketing of cleaning and personnel care products. Operating Results and Review of Operations for the year Operating Results The Company's Consolidated Groups total Revenue to 30 June 2009 is $46.1M, up 12.3% from $41.1M in 2008. The Consolidated Net Loss after tax attributable to members for the year 30th June 2009 was $6,266,411 down from $1,718,487profit for the corresponding period to 30th June 2008. The Company incurred one-off non recurring costs and charges to the accounts in this financial year of $6.3M. This was primarily caused by impairment of goodwill and intangibles of $4.0M in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. The Company was affected by the World Financial Crisis (WFC) in a few key areas. (i) The Company's business units operate mostly superior vertically integrated business models and import the vast majority of its goods from Asia. The Australian dollar dropped from its highs of $0.98 AUD/USD to $0.65 AUD/USD during the middle of this financial year and for most of the later part of the year bottomed out at levels close to this figure. This affected our consolidated profit margins as many of the company's customers were not in a position to absorb an immediate 33% increase in price. (ii) In the first half of the year, the Company's revenue showed consistently strong growth. This was adversely affected toward the second half of the year by weakening demand in the construction industry, particularly in the NSW market. This is consistent with HIA data. (iii) The Company decided to reduce operational costs by reducing staff numbers and as a result redundancy payments were made during the year. This was a direct result of the WFC as the Company looked to align its costs with current market conditions. This affected our reported earnings. In the coming year, these redundancies are expected to save in excess of $1.0M in 2010 salaries. (iv) The Company's inventory values rose from $8.3M to $9.6M during this period despite a significant increase in stock turn ratios in most divisions. This adversely affected cash as we replenished units at the lower AUD rates during this period. As a result, the Company's Board and major shareholders loaned the Company $1,000,000 in May for a 2 year interest only period to assist with its capital management strategy. (v) Consistent with current accounting standards the Board decided that the Intangible Assets associated with recent business acquisitions should be impaired. This caused a one- off non recurring charge to our accounts of $4,027,937. The table below summarises the expenses adversely affecting this year's results. Redundancy Total Impairments FX Effects Bad Debts Loss of Rent Relocation of Factory Others Total $246,865 $4,137,337 (Includes Intangibles and Property) $1,415,861 $181,161 $110,700 $55,700 $306,208 $6,453,832 Review of Operations (i) Scaffold Division We have grown to become the market leader sales and hire of Aluminium Scaffold. The Aluminium Scaffold Division performed reasonably well despite the WFC and Building slump, picking up market share as some of its competitors ceased or condensed their operations. Our Chinese manufacturing operations in Foshan, China continue to win worldwide business and remain a real asset to the Group. 1 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS’ Most states performed within expectations except for NSW where a significant drop in construction and building activity affected revenues. We have since received steady increases in enquiry levels and orders for Scaffold from our China factory and follow up to these enquiries is in progress. (ii) Paint Applications Business earnings performed well below expectations due to non-recurring factors outlined above in the Directors overview. We anticipate that with a stabilising Australian Dollar, these will bounce back to normal earning patterns. Our Brand name is over 91 years old and our business enjoys consistent superior brand and distribution performance recognition. (iii) Garden Sheds Storage This business has strong distribution channels and manufactures and sells an aestheically strong and superior product to the worldwide market. Softer than expected Building activity in NSW affected local revenues within some key customers group. The divison has made a contribution to the group and continues to win export business. (iv) PT Ace Oldfields This business is a 49% owned Associate in Indonesia. This business experienced strong double digit gains in local sales, thereby improving our market share in Indonesia. However, it was affected adversely by the WFC with lower than anticipated exports to the USA. This is currently stabilising. Australia and New Zealand exports remained solid during the year. The Board feels that once world activities stabilise, this division will return to normalised trading. (v) H & O Products This is a 75% owned subsidiary of the group which acquired the business from H & O Pharmaceutical on the 4th August 2008. This currently operates at Fairfield, NSW. This division will become part of our consumer goods division. It manufactures many of the large generic brands in the cleaning product category for larger supermarkets and grocery outlets. The generic Brands Market is expected to continue to increase as a percentage of total Australian supermarket sales. It also owns trademarks such as Tornado and Helena Products. The division has budgeted to increase sales this coming year. The complex nature of its integration into our ERP system and the lower than anticipated sales resulted in a disappointing performance well below initial expectations. The Board has instigated a review of this business which included significant cost cutting and management changes. The Company manufactures about 50% of all its bottle requirements. The bottle factory was recently moved to our 8 Farrow Road, Campbelltown site in mid August 2009. The business is budgeting an improved trading result in 2010. Our plans for this business are further explained in the Future Prospects section of this Report, set out below. (vi) Property The Company owns significant property assets. This includes a 47.5% share in a property in Tangshan, China, along with 100% of its Australian property portfolio. We have just leased the Prestons property and this property will continue to remain on our books as an Investment Property. The Company will review the potential to sell some or all of its unused property assets in the coming year with a view to retire debt. Capital Management As forshadowed above, the Company needs to raise further working capital in order to refocus and recapitalise the H & O Business, to replenish its working capital and retire some debt. The Board is currently considering a range of options,which include a share placement and or a Rights Issue. Company Going Forward The Directors are keen to improve shareholder value and undertake to maintain continuing good Corporate Governance. We will keep the market regularly informed. Whilst our earnings results signal a deterioration of the traditional previous five years improvements, without doubt significant widely published world events contributed to this one-off adverse effect. The Company continues its record of strong revenue growth. The Board recognises that ultimately this company needs to grow from a small public company. We have resolved to continue to explore any potential to gain synergistic possibilities through mergers or acquisitions of suitable entities, both private or public, into the future, with companies operating similar or diverse businesses in order to add critical mass to the organisation and add shareholder value and improve the liquidity of our traded shares. The Directors feel that whilst every care has been taken in providing shareholders an accurate insight as to our future prospects, as stated in this report, circumstances may change and results may vary depending on uncontrollable current economic and unforseen circumstances in prevailing economic conditions and do not factor in any such unforeseen circumstances in this Report. The Company's activities will now forcus mainly on integration of the existing new business activities and their organic growth, with a short consolidation period expected in the next few months. The Board will also oversee a formal review of the Company's assets and determine the necessary strategy and controls to maximise the profits in the coming year. Dividends Paid or Recommended 2 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS’ The Company declared an interim fully franked dividend of 1.0 cent and will defer declaration of any final dividend for the year 2009 until November's AGM and after capital raising is finalised. The Dividend Policy will remain on hold until further notice. The total number of ordinary shares on issue in the Company was 14,320,868 shares as at 30 June 2009. After Balance Date Events The Company paid a tranche 3 payment of $985,711 on the 1st September 2009 to the vendors of Advance Scaffolds. A partial payment was made on the 6th July 2009 to the vendors by the issue of 1,233,451 shares in Oldfields Holdings Limited. The Company also issued 200,000 shares on the 14th August 2009 in Oldfields Holdings Limited to the vendors of the H & O business as final settlement of that acquisition. The Company's total shares on issue rose to 15,744,319 as at 30th August 2009. Future Developments, Prospects and Business Strategies To further improve the consolidated group’s profit and maximise shareholder wealth, the following developments are intended to be implemented in the near future: Revenue and profits are forecast to increase in the current year, particularly in the second half of the year. This growth in revenue and profit will be driven by two factors: (i) Organic growth is anticipated to resume and to follow the growth trends evident in the years prior the WFC. (ii) We intend to refocus the H & O Business by significantly adding to capacity by making capital investments in machinery and technology. We plan to inject more working capital into this business enabling higher levels of "on time and full production" to be achieved. This in turn will generate better profits by winning more business and achieving greater levels of customer satisfaction. The lack of working capital in the past was identified as the main constraint of the business prior to our acquisition and had still not properly been addressed by us due to unexpected availablity and constraints of working capital caused by the WFC. \ Environmental Issues The economic entity's manufacturing operations are not subject to significant environmental regulations under the law of the Commonwealth and State. The economic entity has established a process whereby compliance with existing environmental regulations and new regulations is monitored continually. This process includes procedures to be followed should an incident adversely impact the environment. The Directors are not aware of any significant breaches during the period covered by this report.

REMUNERATION REPORT Remuneration policy 4 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS’ The remuneration policy of Oldfields Holdings Limited has been designed to align key management personnel objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the consolidated group’s financial results. The board of Oldfields Holdings Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best key management personnel to run and manage the consolidated group, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders. The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for key management personnel of the consolidated group is as follows: • The remuneration policy is required to be developed by the remuneration committee and approved by the board after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants. • All key management personnel receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, fringe benefits, options and performance incentives. • The remuneration committee reviews key management personnel packages annually by reference to the consolidated group’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors. The performance of key management personnel is measured against criteria agreed with each executive and is based predominantly on the forecast growth of the consolidated group’s profits and shareholders’ value. All bonuses and incentives must be linked to predetermined performance criteria. The board may, however, exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options, and can recommend changes to the committee’s recommendations. Any changes must be justified by reference to measurable performance criteria. The policy is designed to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth. Key management personnel are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements. The Key management personnel receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently 9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals, however, have chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation. All remuneration paid to key management personnel is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Shares given to key management personnel are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by key management personnel. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology.

Note 1 Statement of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Preparation The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. (a) Financial Report Prepared as a Going Concern Basis The financial statement have been prepared on the going concern basis of accounting, which assumes the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The net loss after income tax for the consolidated entity for the financial year ended 30 June 2009 was $6,266,411 The directors have undertaken to raise capital through a variety of capital raising opportunities. The directors have received various advice to indicate that there would be no reason that the capital raising would not be successful. Based on capital raising, projected budgets, cashflow and forecasts these financial statements are prepared on the basis of a going concern. (b) Principles of Consolidation A controlled entity is any entity over which Oldfields Holdings Limited has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are considered. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note Note16 to the financial statements. As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the consolidated financial statements as well as their results for the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered (left) the consolidated group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from the date control was obtained (ceased). All inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity. Minority interests, being that portion of the profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests held by persons outside the group, are shown separately within the Equity section of the consolidated Balance Sheet and in the consolidated Income Statement. (c) Business Combinations Business combinations occur where control over another business is obtained and results in the consolidation of its assets and liabilities. All business combinations, including those involving entities under common control, are accounted for by applying the purchase method. The purchase method requires an acquirer of the business to be identified and for the cost of the acquisition and fair values of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities to be determined as at acquisition date, being the date that control is obtained. Cost is determined as the aggregate of fair values of assets given, equity issued and liabilities assumed in exchange for control together with costs directly attributable to the business combination. Goodwill is recognised initially at the excess of cost over the acquirer’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. If the fair value of the acquirer’s interest is greater than cost, the surplus is immediately recognised in profit or loss. (d) Income Tax The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income). Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. (e) Tax Consolidation Oldfields Holdings Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. Each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such taxes are measured using the ‘stand-alone taxpayer’ approach to allocation. Current tax liabilities (assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in the subsidiaries are immediately transferred to the head entity. 12 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 The group notified the Australian Tax Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July, 2003. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax funding arrangement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable by the group in proportion to their contribution to the group’s taxable income. Differences between the amounts of net tax assets and liabilities derecognised and the net amounts recognised pursuant to the funding arrangement are recognised as either a contribution by, or distribution to the head entity. (f) Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Overheads are applied on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs. (g) Property, Plant and Equipment Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. (h) Property Freehold land and buildings are shown at their fair value (being the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgable willing parties in an arms length transaction), based on periodic, but at least triennial, valuations by external independent valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to a revaluation reserve in equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against fair value reserves directly in equity; all other decreases are charged to the income statement. Each year the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset charged to the income statement and depreciation based on the assets original cost is transferred from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings. 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. (i) Plant and equipment Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of an independent valuation performed. The cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. 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. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. (j) Depreciation The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: Class of Fixed Asset Buildings Leasehold improvements Plant and equipment Leased plant and equipment Depreciation Rate 2% 4-5% 5-50% 18-20% The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet 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. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. (k) Investment Property Investment property is held to generate long-term rental yields. All tenant leases are on an arm's length basis. Investment property is carried at fair value, determined annually by independent valuers. Changes to fair value are recorded in the income statement as other income/expense. (l) Leases Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership that are transferred to entities in the consolidated group are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period. Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term. (m) Financial Instruments Initial Recognition and Measurement Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the Company commits itself to either purchase or sell the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered within time frames established by marketplace convention). Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs except where the instrument is not classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss’ in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below. Classification and Subsequent Measurement (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets are classified at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ when they are either held for trading for the purpose of short term profit taking, where they are derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. (ii) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. 13 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 (iii) Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective rate method. (iv) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments. (v) Financial Liabilities Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective rate method. (vi) Cash flow Hedges The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is deferred to a hedge reserve in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement Amounts accumulated in the hedge reserve in equity are transferred to the income statement in the periods when the hedged item will affect profit and loss. Fair value Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm's length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. Impairment At each reporting date, the group assess whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. (n) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the assets carrying value. Any excess of the assets carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement. Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. (o) Investments in Associates Investments in associate companies are recognised in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting. The equity method of accounting recognised the group’s share of post acquisition reserves of its associates. The consolidated group’s interests in joint venture entities are brought to account using the equity method of accounting in the consolidated financial statements. The parent entity’s interests in joint venture entities are brought to account using the cost method. (p) Intangibles Goodwill Goodwill and goodwill on consolidation are initially recorded at the amount by which the purchase price for a business combination exceeds the fair value attributed to the interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in investments in associates. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. Patents and trademarks Patents and trademarks are recognised at cost of acquisition. Patents and trademarks have a finite life and are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Patents and trademarks are amortised over their useful life ranging from 5 to 10 years. Research and development Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably. Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project. (q) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances Functional and presentation currency The functional currency of each of the group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentation currency. Transaction and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the income statement. Group companies The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group’s presentation currency are translated as follows: — — — assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the groups foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed. (r) Employee Benefits 14 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Those cashflows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cashflows. (s) Equity-settled compensation The group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using a Black-Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at each reporting date such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. (t) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. (u) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet. (v) Revenue and Other Income Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as the provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods. Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets is the rate inherent in the instrument. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. Dividend received from associates and joint venture entities are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting. Revenue relating to construction activities is detailed at Note 1(e). Revenue recognition relating to the provision of services is determined with reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at reporting date and where outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably. Stage of completion is determined with reference to the services performed to date as a percentage of total anticipated services to be performed. Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that related expenditure is recoverable. Investment property revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of lease term so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). (w) Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in income in the period in which they are incurred. (x) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. (y) Comparative Figures When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year. (z) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the group. Key Estimates (a) Impairment The group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions and events specific to the Group that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions. Please see Note 22 "Intangibles Assets" for additional details. The following are the major assumptions used in the value-in-use calculations: Wholesale Segment Scaffolding Segment Investments & Associates Growth Rate Initial 5% 5% to 15% 5% to 10% Discount Rate 12% 12% 10% & 15% Period 5 Yrs 5 Yrs 5 Yrs New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods The AASB has issued new, revised and amended standards and interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods. The Group has decided against early adoption of these standards. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Group follows: 15 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 - - - - - - - - - - - - AASB 3: Business Combinations, AASB 127: Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, AASB 2008-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 3 and AASB 127 [AASBs 1,2,4,5,7,101,107, 112, 114, 116, 121, 128, 131, 132, 133, 134, 136, 137, 138 & 139 and Interpretations 9 & 107] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009) and AASB 2008-7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Cost of an Investment in a Subsidiary, Jointly Controlled Entity or Associate [AASB 1, AASB 118, AASB 121, AASB 127 & AASB 136] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). These standards are applicable prospectively and so will only affect relevant transactions and consolidations occurring from the date of application. In this regard, its impact on the Group will be unable to be determined. The following changes to accounting requirements are included: - - - - - - - acquisition costs incurred in a business combination will no longer be recognised in goodwill but will be expensed unless the cost relates to issuing debt or equity securities; contingent consideration will be measured at fair value at the acquisition date and may only be provisionally accounted for during a period of 12 months after acquisition; a gain or loss of control will require the previous ownership interests to be remeasured to their fair value; there shall be no gain or loss from transactions affecting a parent’s ownership interest of a subsidiary with all transactions required to be accounted for through equity (this will not represent a change to the Group’s policy); dividends declared out of pre-acquisition profits will not be deducted from the cost of an investment but will be recognised as income; Impairment of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates shall be considered when a dividend is paid by the respective investee; and where there is, in substance, no change to Group interests, parent entities inserted above existing groups shall measure the cost of its investments at the carrying amount of its share of the equity items shown in the balance sheet of the original parent at the date of reorganisation. The Group will need to determine whether to maintain its present accounting policy of calculating goodwill acquired based on the parent entity’s share of net assets acquired or change its policy so goodwill recognised also reflects that of the non-controlling interest. AASB 8: Operating Segments and AASB 2007-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 8 [AASB 5, AASB 6, AASB 102, AASB 107, AASB 119, AASB 127, AASB 134, AASB 136, AASB 1023 & AASB 1038] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). AASB 8 replaces AASB 114 and requires identification of operating segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Group’s Board for the purposes of decision making. While the impact of this standard cannot be assessed at this stage, there is the potential for more segments to be identified. Given the lower economic levels at which segments may be defined, and the fact that cash generating units cannot be bigger than operating segments, impairment calculations may be affected. Management does not presently believe impairment will result however. AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements, AASB 2007-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 101, and AASB 2007-10: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 101 (all applicable to annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). The revised AASB 101 and amendments supersede the previous AASB 101 and redefines the composition of financial statements including the inclusion of a statement of comprehensive income. There will be no measurement or recognition impact on the Group. If an entity has made a prior period adjustment or reclassification, a third balance sheet as at the beginning of the comparative period will be required. AASB 123: Borrowing Costs and AASB 2007-6: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 123 [AASB 1, AASB 101, AASB 107, AASB 111, AASB 116 & AASB 138 and Interpretations 1 & 12] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). The revised AASB 123 has removed the option to expense all borrowing costs and will therefore require the capitalisation of all borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Management has determined that there will be no effect on the Group as a policy of capitalising qualifying borrowing costs has been maintained by the Group. AASB 2008-1: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standard – Share-based Payments: Vesting Conditions and Cancellations [AASB 2] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). This amendment to AASB 2 clarifies that vesting conditions consist of service and performance conditions only. Other elements of a share-based payment transaction should therefore be considered for the purposes of determining fair value. Cancellations are also required to be treated in the same manner whether cancelled by the entity or by another party. AASB 2008-2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Puttable Financial Instruments and Obligations Arising on Liquidation [AASB 7, AASB 101, AASB 132 & AASB 139 & Interpretation 2] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). These amendments introduce an exception to the definition of a financial liability to classify as equity instruments certain puttable financial instruments and certain other financial instruments that impose an obligation to deliver a pro-rata share of net assets only upon liquidation. AASB 2008-5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project (July 2008) (AASB 2008-5) and AASB 2008-6: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project (July 2008) (AASB 2008-6) detail numerous non-urgent but necessary changes to accounting standards arising from the IASB’s annual improvements project. No changes are expected to materially affect the Group. AASB 2008-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Eligible Hedged Items [AASB 139] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009). This amendment clarifies how the principles that determine whether a hedged risk or portion of cash flows is eligible for designation as a hedged item should be applied in particular situations and is not expected to materially affect the Group. AASB 2008-13: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB Interpretation 17 – Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners [AASB 5 & AASB 110] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009). This amendment requires that non-current assets held for distribution to owners to be measured at the lower of carrying value and fair value less costs to distribute. AASB Interpretation 15: Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). Under the interpretation, agreements for the construction of real estate shall be accounted for in accordance with AASB 111 where the agreement meets the definition of ‘construction contract’ per AASB 111 and when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the work in progress transfer to the buyer continuously as construction progresses. Where the recognition requirements in relation to construction are satisfied but the agreement does not meet the definition of ‘construction contract’, revenue is to be accounted for in accordance with AASB 118. Management does not believe that this will represent a change of policy to the Group. AASB Interpretation 16: Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 October 2008). Interpretation 16 applies to entities that hedge foreign currency risk arising from net investments in foreign operations and that want to adopt hedge accounting. The interpretation provides clarifying guidance on several issues in accounting for the hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation and is not expected to impact the Group. AASB Interpretation 17: Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009). This guidance applies prospectively only and clarifies that non-cash dividends payable should be measured at the fair value of the net assets to be distributed where the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the assets is recognised in profit or loss. The Group does not anticipate early adoption of any of the above reporting requirements and does not expect these requirements to have any material effect on the Group’s financial statements.

Non-current trade and term receivables are assessed for recoverability based on the underlying terms of the contract. A provision for impairment is recognised when their is an objective evidence that an individual trade or term receivable is impaired. These amounts have been included in the other expenses item. There are no balances within trade and other receivables that contain assets that are not impaired and are past due. It is expected these balances will be received when due. Impaired assets are provided for in full. Credit risk - Trade and Other Receivables The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counterparty or group of counterparties other than those receivables specifically provided for and mentioned within Note 10. The main source of credit risk to the Group is considered to relate to the class of assets described as Trade and Other Receivables. The company hold insurance policies for select Trade Debtors. The following table details the Group’s trade and other receivables exposed to credit risk (prior to collateral and other credit enhancements) with ageing analysis and impairment provided for thereon.

Interest rate risk Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at reporting date whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on floating rate instruments. Interest rate swap data and potential hedging is reviewed monthly by the board to minimise the risk exposure of variable interest rates b. Foreign Currency Risk The board and senior management monitors foreign currency and has undertaken from May 2009 to use hedging contracts were appropriate to the value of up to 50% of it's US dollar requirements. The board reviews this regularly after consultation with market advisors and its bank. c. Liquidity risk The group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate utilised borrowing facilities are maintained. d. Credit risk Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group. Credit risk is managed through maintaining procedures ensuring, to the extent possible, that customers and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness and includes the utilisation of systems for the approval, granting and renewal of credit limits, the regular monitoring of exposures against such limits and the monitoring of the financial stability of significant customers and counterparties. Such monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment. Depending on the division within the Group, credit terms are generally 30 to 45 days from the end of the month. Credit Risk Exposures The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at balance date, excluding the value of any collateral or other security held is equivalent to the carrying value and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the balance sheet. Credit risk also arises through the provision of financial guarantees, as approved at Board level, given to parties securing the liabilities of certain subsidiaries (refer Note Note15 for details). Collateral held by the Group securing receivables are detailed in Note 10 Trade and Other Receivables. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties. However, on a geographic basis, the Group has significant credit risk exposures to Australia and the United Kingdom given the substantial operations in those regions. Details with respect to credit risk of Trade and Other Receivables is provided in Note 10. 30 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 Trade and other receivables that are neither past due or impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. Aggregates of such amounts are as detailed at Note 10. Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by the FRMC in accordance with approved Board policy. Such policy requires that surplus funds are only invested with counterparties with a Standard and Poor’s rating of at least AA-. The following table provides information regarding the credit risk relating to cash and money market securities based on S&P counterparty credit ratings. Cash and cash equivalents - AA Rated - A Rated Held-to-maturity securities - AAA Rated For details of collateral held as security, refer to Note 10(e).

Fair values are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. Fair values derived may be based on information that is estimated or subject to judgement, where changes in assumptions may have a material impact on the amounts estimated. Areas of judgement and the assumptions have been detailed below. Where possible, valuation information used to calculate fair value is extracted from the market, with more reliable information available from markets that are actively traded. In this regard, fair values for listed securities are obtained from quoted market bid prices. Where securities are unlisted and no market quotes are available, fair value is obtained using discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants. Differences between fair values and carrying values of financial instruments with fixed interest rates are due to the change in discount rates being applied by the market since their initial recognition by the Group. Most of these instruments which are carried at amortised cost (i.e. term receivables, held-to-maturity assets, loan liabilities) are to be held until maturity and therefore the net fair value figures calculated bear little relevance to the Group.

Trade and other payables excludes amounts provided for relating to annual leave which is not considered a financial instrument. Term receivables generally reprice to a market interest rate every 6 months and fair value therefore approximates carrying value. Discounted cash flow models are used to determine the fair values of loans and advances. Discount rates used on the calculations are based on interest rates existing at reporting date for similar types of loans and advances. Differences between fair values and carrying values largely represent movements the effective interest rate determined on initial recognition and current market rates. For listed available-for-sale and held-for-trading financial assets, closing quoted bid prices at reporting date are used. The directors have determined that the fair values of unlisted available-for-sale financial assets cannot be reliably measured as variability in the range of reasonable fair value estimates is significant. Consequently, such assets are recognised at cost and their fair values have also been stated at cost in the table above. However, the directors estimate that such investments could have fair values in the range of $[insert amount] to $[insert amount] at reporting date. There is no active market for these investments, and there is no present intention to dispose of such investments. Fair values of held-to-maturity investments are based on quoted market prices at reporting date. Quoted market prices at reporting date are used as well as valuation techniques incorporating observable market data relevant to the hedged position. Discounted cash flow models are used that incorporate a yield curve appropriate to the remaining maturity of the debenture, bill or promissory note. (viii) Fair values are determined using a discounted cash flow model incorporating current commercial borrowing rates. The fair value of fixed rate bank debt will differ to carrying values. 31 OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 Sensitivity Analysis The following table illustrates sensitivities to the Group’s exposures to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and commodity and equity prices.
