Principal Activities and Significant Changes in Nature of Activities
Resigned
23 May 2013
The principal activities of the consolidated group during the financial year were:
• manufacturing and marketing of paint brushes, paint rollers and painters tools;
• manufacturing, marketing and exporting of garden sheds, outdoor storage systems, aviaries and pet homes;
• manufacturing and marketing of scaffolding and related equipment; and
• hire of scaffolding and related products to the building and construction industry.
There were no significant changes in the nature of the consolidated group’s principal activities during the financial year.
Operating Results and Review of Operations for the year
Operating Results
The consolidated group revenue from continuing operations for the financial year ended 30 June 2013 was $26,644,174 (2012: $28,832,631) which was down
7.6% from the prior year. The consolidated net profit after tax attributable to members of the parent entity was $4,486,973 (2012 loss $1,813,981). This result
includes other income of $5.5million from the buy-back of senior debt where the Group purchased $8million of debt from its primary lender for a payment of
$2.5million. Gross margins improved from 48.3% to 48.7%, which was primarily attributable to efficiency gains and improved labour utilisation in the scaffold
division. Operating overhead cost savings of $1,090,943 were achieved during the year which helped offset the impact of lower revenue.
Excluding other income from the debt buy-back, the Group made a net loss from continuing operations after tax of $860,247 (2012: $1,682,305). Whilst the loss
was significantly lower than in the prior year, the result was still unsatisfactory, however investments were made during the year in new products, packaging, and
marketing materials and efficiency improvements in business processes. These initiatives will drive profitable growth in the coming year which will accelerate
when activity increases in the building and construction industry.
Net debt has reduced substantially over the past 12 months as a result of the debt buy-back completed in December 2012, lower interest rates and asset sales in
the prior year. Cash interest bearing debt reduced from $14,556,165 as at 30 June 2012 to $4,772,174 as at 30 June 2013. This reduction resulted in a decrease
of $813,478 in borrowing costs for the year.
Cash interest bearing debt comprises of:
Cash and cash equivalents
Bank overdraft
Hire purchase liabilities
Bank loans
Loans from related parties

Cash inflow from operating activities was $1,064,247 for the year, compared to $114,294 in the prior year. Improving the operating cash flow has been a major
area of focus for the Group over the last 12 months, with the improvement this year being primarily from more efficient working capital management and lower
interest payments.
In order to combat the slowdown in the building and construction industry, a continued focus on driving efficiencies needed to be made during the year. These
efficiency initiatives resulted in reduced distribution expenses of $235,047 and was primarily from the scaffold division, which is still well positioned in the market
to benefit from an uplift in activity in the building and construction industry when this occurs. Early in the year a full review was made of administrative costs and a
number of efficiency savings were made. These savings are being reinvested back into the business to drive growth. The focus going forward will be achieving top
line profitable growth through increasing the geographic coverage for our scaffolding business, the launch of a channel differentiated range of products for the
paint applications business and the development of new sales channels for the garden sheds business.
Financial Position
The net assets of the consolidated group have increased by $6,878,315 from $756,100 as at 30 June 2012 to $7,634,415 as at 30 June 2013. This increase is
largely due to the refinancing of the company's debt during the year, partially offset by the net loss from operations for the year.

Review of Operations
(i) Consumer Products Division
Paint Applications
Revenue for paint applications was in line with the prior year. Whilst the division has benefited from the new retail landscape in the hardware market, revenue
declines have been experienced in the professional painting market and was impacted by the decline in new building approvals during the year. In addition to this,
a private label contract was lost during the year which impacted top line revenue growth but with minimal impact on profitability.
The division has benefited from investment in modernising the brand, new products, and new marketing materials. The division is also continuing to invest in
creating channel differentiation amongst its product range, which will provide a point of difference between the professional and do-it-yourself (DIY) markets.
New packaging and products launched to date have received excellent customer feedback and this is expected to continue in the coming year with more products
being updated.
Progress made during the year will provide a good base for future profitable growth. To support the new products launched during the year, a full marketing
support program is in place to ensure the ongoing success of these products. A supplier rationalisation program was also undertaken, with the number of
suppliers reduced. This has allowed the division to negotiate better costs, reduced logistics costs and improved inventory management. Staff training for all sales
staff was completed during the year and new customer service initiatives were put in place for a telemarketing function to be implemented in the coming year.
Treco Garden Sheds
The garden shed division declined in the last year. Domestic sales reduced as a result of continued decline in discretionary consumer spending and the lack of
distribution in major hardware retail outlets. Revenue growth in the international market was significantly impacted by the high Australian dollar, however
subsequent to year end, there appears to be some uplift in sales in the European market following the decline of the Australian dollar.
The garden shed division has recently undergone some management changes and a renewed focus is being made to generate increased revenue and profitability,
particularly in the domestic market with a clear focus on gaining additional retail distribution.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
Review of Operations (continued)
(ii) Scaffold Division
Total revenue in the scaffold division was down 9.6% compared to prior year, primarily due to a decline in sales of scaffolding equipment due to a large one off
sale received in early 2012 which was not repeated in the current year. Gross margins from this division improved further this year and operating overheads were
reduced which improved profitability considerably on an earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) basis. There was an increase in the demand for scaffolding hire in
the second half of the year as activity showed signs of a recovery in some areas. The scaffolding division continues to focus on customer service, quality, and
costs; the benefits of which are being seen as many new accounts have become regular customers. This year, the division was also impacted by a customer in
South Australia being placed into administration which resulted in a bad debt of $83,647.
Activity in the building and construction industry appears to have increased recently, particularly in south east Queensland, Sydney, and South Australia. Victoria,
Western Australia and Newcastle remain stable. Construction activity, particularly in Victoria and Western Australia has been quiet for some time and competitive
activity is intense in the scaffold hire and sales industry.
Changes to Workplace, Health and Safety legislations in New South Wales and Queensland were expected to provide an uplift in sales of scaffolding for the
financial year, however as a result of lower business activity these increased sales have not yet materialised.
It is expected that when building activity increases
further, the need for additional scaffolding to comply with the new legislation requirements from hire industry customers will eventuate.
Future Developments, Prospects and Business Strategies
To further improve the consolidated group’s profit and maximise shareholder wealth, the following developments are intended for implementation in the near
future:
• Continued investment in new products and branding in the paint applications division;
• Development of a clearly differentiated product range of products for the paint specialist market;
• Expansion of domestic coverage of the scaffold division with new distributors in areas not currently covered;
• Increase the international footprint of the scaffold division by working closer with current distributors as they move into new countries; and
• Leverage new landscape of the DIY hardware market to grow the garden sheds division domestically.
Significant Changes in State of Affairs
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs during the year.
Dividends Paid or Recommended
Dividends paid or declared for payment during the financial year are as follows:
Dividends paid to non-controlling interest during the financial year ended 30 June 2013 were $148,512.
Events after the Reporting Period
There have been no significant events after the end of the reporting period.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
AUDITED REMUNERATION REPORT
Remuneration policy
The remuneration policy of Oldfields Holdings Limited has been designed to align key management personnel (KMP) 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 high-quality KMP 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 KMP of the consolidated group is as follows:
• The remuneration policy is to be developed by the remuneration committee and approved by the Board after professional advice is sought from independent
external consultants.
• All KMP receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, fringe benefits, and performance incentives.
• Performance incentives are generally only paid once predetermined key performance indicators (KPIs) have been met.
• The remuneration committee reviews KMP packages annually by reference to the consolidated group’s performance, executive performance and comparable
information from industry sectors.
The performance of KMP is measured against criteria agreed annually 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 change 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
results leading to long-term growth in shareholder wealth.
KMP receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently 9% (9.25% from 1 July 2013) of the individual's average
weekly ordinary time earnings (AWOTE), and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals, however, have chosen to sacrifice part of their salary
to increase payments towards superannuation.
Upon retirement, KMP are paid employee benefit entitlements accrued to the date of retirement.
All remuneration paid to KMP is valued at the cost to the company and expensed.
The Board's policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The remuneration committee determines
payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external
advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the
Annual General Meeting.
Engagement of Remuneration Consultants
During the financial year, there were no consultants engaged by the remuneration committee to review the elements of KMP remuneration and provide
recommendations.
Performance-based Remuneration
The KPIs are set annually, with a certain level of consultation with KMP. The measures are specifically tailored to the area each individual is involved in and has a
level of control over. The KPIs target areas the Board believes hold greater potential for group expansion and profit, covering financial and non-financial as well as
short and long-term goals. The level set for each KPI is based on budgeted figures for the Group and respective industry standards.
Performance in relation to the KPIs is assessed annually, with bonuses being awarded depending on the number and deemed difficulty of the KPIs achieved.
Following the assessment, the KPIs are reviewed by the remuneration committee in light of the desired and actual outcomes, and their efficiency is assessed in
relation to the Group’s goals and shareholder wealth, before the KPIs are set for the following year.
In determining whether or not a KPI has been achieved, Oldfields Holdings Limited bases the assessment on audited figures, however, where the KPI involves
comparison of the Group or a division within the Group to the market, independent reports are obtained from organisations such as Standard & Poors.
Employment Details of Members of Key Management Personnel
The following table provides employment details of persons who were, during the financial year, members of KMP of the consolidated group. The table also

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013
These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Oldfields Holdings Limited and Controlled Entities (the “consolidated group” or “group”). The
separate financial statements of the parent entity, Oldfields Holdings Limited, have not been presented within this financial report as permitted by the Corporations Act
2001.
The financial statements were authorised for issue on 29 August 2013 by the directors of the company.
Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have 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. The Group is a for-profit entity for
financial reporting purposes under the Australian Accounting Standards.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the Australian Accounting Standards Board has concluded would result in financial statements 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 as issued by the IASB. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial
statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise.
Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the
measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
Oldfields Holdings Limited and its Australian wholly-owned entities have entered into a deed of cross guarantee under which the company and its subsidiaries guarantee
the debts of each other.
Going Concern
The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the
settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As at 30 June 2013, the Group had an accumulated deficit of $12,748,513 (2012: $17,235,486). Consolidated net profit for the 12 months ended 30 June 2013 was
$4,639,753 (2012: loss of $1,744,035), after recognising other income of $5.5 million as result of the debt buy-back. Cash inflows from operating activities for the period
ending 30 June 2013 was $1,064,247 (2012: $114,294). The directors believe the going concern assumption to be appropriate for the following reasons:
(cid:1)
(cid:1)
(cid:1)
(cid:1)
On 21 December 2012, the Group signed a new facility agreement with its existing debt provider that will extend, subject to yearly reviews, to June 2015. As part of
the agreement, the Group purchased $8million of debt from its primary lender for a payment of $2.5million. The Group has met it's debt covenants for the year. In
addition, the debt provider swapped senior debt for a Deferred Senior Loan Note for $2,370,224 with a 10 year maturity;
Continued improvement in operating results compared to prior years as a result of stringent cashflow management, supplier rationalisation and cost reduction
programs which will continue into the coming year;
The Group has in place a working capital facility of $1.25m which was not fully utilised as at 30 June 2013 and is regularly monitored; and
The Groups debts are being paid as and when the fall due.
Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the normal course of business
and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of asset carrying amounts or the amounts of liabilities that might result should the company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as
and when they fall due.
(a)
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Oldfields Holdings Limited at the end of the reporting
period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Oldfields Holdings Limited has the ability and right to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain
benefits from the entity’s activities.
Where controlled entities have entered or left the Group during the year, the financial performance of those entities is included only for the period of the year that
they were controlled. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 17 to the financial statements.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intragroup balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group have been eliminated in full on
consolidation.
Non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are reported separately within the equity section of the
consolidated statement of financial position and statements showing profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The non-controlling interests in the net assets
comprise their interests at the date of the original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date.
Business Combinations
Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.
A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control. The
business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is attained whereby the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including
contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions).
When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement is also
included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within
equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in profit or
loss, unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.
All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations are recognised as expenses in profit or loss when incurred.
The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.
Goodwill
Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum of:
(i) the consideration transferred;
(ii) any non-controlling interest; and
(iii) the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest;
over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired.

AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013
Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(a)
Principles of Consolidation (continued)
The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest
shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial statements.
Fair value remeasurements in any pre-existing equity holdings are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Where changes in the value of such
equity holdings had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income, such amounts are recycled to profit or loss.
The amount of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the Group holds less than a 100% interest will depend on the method adopted in
measuring the non-controlling interest. The Group can elect in most circumstances to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value (full
goodwill method) or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets (proportionate interest method). In such
circumstances, the Group determines which method to adopt for each acquisition and this is stated in the respective notes to these financial statements disclosing
the business combination.
Under the full goodwill method, the fair value of the non-controlling interests is determined using valuation techniques which make the maximum use of market
information where available. Under this method, goodwill attributable to the non-controlling interests is recognised in the consolidated financial statements.
Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in investments in associates.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group's cash generating units or groups of cash generating units, representing the lowest level at
which goodwill is monitored being not larger than an operating segment. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill related
to the entity disposed of.
Changes in the ownership interests in a subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions and do not affect the carrying amounts of goodwill.
Discontinued Operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the consolidated entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate major line
of a business or geographical area of operations, is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary
acquired exclusively with the view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately on the face of the statement of comprehensive income
and in note 6.
(b)
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. When
the inflow of consideration is deferred it is treated as the provision of financing 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 method.
Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. Dividends received from associates and joint venture entities are accounted
for in accordance with the equity method of accounting.
Revenue recognition relating to the provision of services is determined with reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period
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.
Revenue recognised in relation to the debt buy back has been recognised at the time the transaction occurred and the liability forgiven.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax.
(c)
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 profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
(d)
Income Tax
The income tax expense/(income) for the year comprises current income tax expense/(income) and deferred tax expense/(income).
Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income. Current tax liabilities/(assets) are 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 as unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense/(income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are recognised outside profit or
loss.
Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, 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 and their
measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. With respect to non-
depreciable items of property, plant and equipment measured at fair value and items of investment property measured at fair value, the related deferred tax liability
or deferred tax asset is measured on the basis that the carrying amount of the asset will be recovered entirely through sale.
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.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(d)
Income Tax (continued)
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) a legally enforceable right of set-off exists; and (b) 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.

(h)
Tax Consolidation
Oldfields Holdings Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. Each entity within
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.
The Group notified the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July 2003. The tax consolidated group
has also entered into 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 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.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are reported within short-term borrowings in current liabilities in the statement
of financial position.
Trade and Other Receivables
Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to
be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.
Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision
for impairment. Refer to Note 1(q) for further discussion on the determination of impairment losses.
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
proportion 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.
Investments in Associates
Associates are companies in which the Group has significant influence through holding, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the voting power of the Group.
Investments in associates are accounted for in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting, whereby the investment is initially recognised at
cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate company. In addition, the Group’s share of the profit
or loss of the associate company is included in the Group’s profit or loss.
The carrying amount of the investment includes goodwill relating to the associate. Any discount on acquisition whereby the Group’s share of the net fair value of the
associate exceeds the cost of investment is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.
Profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate.
When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses unless it
has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. When the associate subsequently makes profits, the Group will resume
recognising its share of those profits once its share of the profits equals the share of the losses not recognised.
Details of the Group’s investment in associates are shown at Note 16.
(i)
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.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment. In the event the
carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated
recoverable amount and impairment losses are recognised either in profit or loss or as a revaluation decrease if the impairment losses relate to a revalued asset. A
formal assessment of recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present (refer to Note 1(q) for details of impairment).
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 the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset's employment and subsequent disposal. The expected
net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.
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 recognised as expenses in
profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
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 company 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
Leasehold improvements
Plant and equipment
Motor vehicles
Depreciation Rate
20-33%
5-33%
18-20%

Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(i)
Property, Plant and Equipment (continued)
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
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 recognised in profit or loss in the period in
which they arise. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.
(j)
Intangibles Other than Goodwill
Patents and trademarks
Patents and trademarks are recognised at cost of acquisition. They 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 lives 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 is expected to deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.
Capitalised development costs have a finite useful life and are amortised on a systematic basis based on the future economic benefits over the useful life of the
project. Amortisation charges are included in distribution, administration and marketing expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.
(k)
(l)
Trade and Other Payables
Trade and other payables represent the liabilities for goods and services received by the entity that remain unpaid at the end of the reporting period. The balance is
recognised as a current liability with the amounts normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.
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.
Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.
(m)
Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end of the reporting period. 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. In
determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wage increases and the probability that the employee may satisfy any vesting requirements. Those cash
flows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash flows attributable to
employee benefits.
(n)
Borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest rate method.
Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the loans or borrowings are classified as non-
current.
(o)
Leases
Leases of fixed assets, where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset (but not the legal ownership) are transferred to entities in
the consolidated group, are classified as finance leases.
Finance leases are capitalised by recognising 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 recognised 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 lease term.
\
(p)
Financial Instruments
Recognition and Initial Measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is
equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs except where the instrument is classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss’ in which
case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement
Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest method, or cost.
Amortised cost is calculated as the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and any
reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the
effective interest method.
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.
The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that discounts estimated
future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) over the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted,
the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will
necessitate an adjustment to the carrying amount with a consequential recognition of an income or expense item in profit or loss.

Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(p)
Financial Instruments (continued)
The Group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards
specifically applicable to financial instruments.
(i)
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are classified at “fair value through profit or loss” when they are held for trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking, 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 amounts being included in profit or loss.
(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.
Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial asset is derecognised.
(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.
Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial asset is derecognised.
(iv)
Available-for-sale investments
Available-for-sale investments are non-derivative financial assets that are either not capable of being 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.
They are subsequently measured at fair value with any remeasurements other than impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses recognised in other
comprehensive income. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss pertaining to that asset previously recognised in other
comprehensive income is reclassified into profit or loss.
Available-for-sale financial assets are classified as non-current assets when they are expected to be sold after 12 months from the end of the reporting period. All
other available-for-sale financial assets are classified as current assets.
(v)
Financial Liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities other than financial guarantees are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss
through the amortisation process and when the financial liability is derecognised.
Derivative instruments
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently measured to their fair value at the end of each
reporting period. Changes in their fair value are recognised in the profit or loss, unless they qualify for hedge accounting.
The Group designates certain derivatives as either:
(i)
(ii)
hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or a firm commitment (fair value hedge); or
hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedge).
At the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the group's risk management objective and strategy
for undertaking various hedge transactions is documented.
Assessments, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be
highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items are also documented.
(i)
(ii)
Fair value hedge
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognised in profit or loss, together with any changes in the fair
value of hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable to the hedged risk.
Cash flow hedge
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 profit or loss.
Amounts accumulated in the hedge reserve in equity are transferred to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss.
Impairment
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset has been impaired. A financial asset (or a group of
financial assets) is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events (a “loss event”) having occurred,
which has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset(s).
In the case of available-for-sale financial assets, a significant or prolonged decline in the market value of the instrument is considered to constitute a loss event.
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss immediately. Also, any cumulative decline in fair value previously recognised in other comprehensive income is
reclassified to profit or loss at this point.
In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost, loss events may include: indications that the debtors or a group of debtors are experiencing significant
financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; indications that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; and changes
in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account is used to reduce the carrying amount of financial assets
impaired by credit losses. After having taken all possible measures of recovery, if management establishes that the carrying amount cannot be recovered by any
means, at that point the written-off amounts are charged to the allowance account or the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced directly if no
impairment amount was previously recognised in the allowance account.
When the terms of financial assets that would otherwise have been past due or impaired have been renegotiated, the Group recognises the impairment for such
financial assets by taking into account the original terms as if the terms have not been renegotiated so that the loss events that have occurred are duly considered.

Financial Instruments (continued)
(q)
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expire or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer
has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the related obligations are
discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair
value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment of Assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration
of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-
acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of
the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is
recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another Standard (e.g. in accordance with the revaluation
model in AASB 116). Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard.
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.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite lives and intangible assets not yet available for use.
(r)
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 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 profit or loss, 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 other comprehensive income to the extent that the underlying gain
or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the profit or loss.
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 exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period;
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 with functional currencies other than Australian dollars are recognised in other comprehensive
income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. The cumulative amount of these differences is reclassified into
profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed of.
(s)
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 Australian Taxation
Office (ATO).
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included
with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to,
the ATO are presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers.
(t)
Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
Where the Group has retrospectively applied an accounting policy, made a retrospective restatement or reclassified items in its financial statements, an additional
statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed.
(u)
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements 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
(i) Impairment - General
The Group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period 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.
(ii) Employee entitlement provisions - Long Service Leave
As discussed in note 1(m), the liability for long service leave is recognised and measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows to be made in respect
of all employees at the reporting date. In determining the present value of the liability, estimates of attrition rates and pay increases through promotion and inflation
have been taken into account.
(iii) Goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets
The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill and other indefinite life
intangible assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1(q). The recoverable amounts of cash generating units have
been determined base on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost
of capital and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments (continued)
Key Estimates (continued)
(iv) Recovery of deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences only if the consolidated entity considers it is probable that future taxable benefits will be
available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
(v) Derivatives
The Group uses valuation techniques to estimate the fair value of certain derivative financial instruments. Information on the key assumptions used in estimating the
fair values of these instruments is found at note 24 and note 32.
Key Judgments
(vi) Provision for Impairment of Receivables
The provision for impairment of receivables assessment required a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of provision is assessed by taking into account the
recent sales experience, the ageing of the receivables, historical collection rates and specific knowledge of the individual debtors financial position.
(vii) Provision for impairment of inventories
The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of provision is assessed by taking into account the
recent sales experience, the ageing of the inventories, and other factors that affect inventory obsolescence.
(vii) Estimation of useful lives of assets
The consolidated entity determined the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and definite
life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge
will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written
off or down.
(v) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods
The AASB has issued a number of new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods,
some of which are relevant to the Group. The Group has decided not to early adopt any of the new and amended pronouncements. The Group’s assessment of the
new and amended pronouncements that are relevant to the Group but applicable in future reporting periods is set out below:
—
AASB 9: Financial Instruments (December 2010) and AASB 2010–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010).
These Standards are applicable retrospectively and include revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, as well as
recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments.
The key changes made to accounting requirements include:
─
─
─
─
─
─
─
simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;
simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives;
removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets;
removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised cost;
allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other
comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no
impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument;
requiring financial assets to be reclassified where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based on: (a) the objective of
the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and (b) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows; and
requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the
entity’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income, except when that would create an accounting mismatch. If such a mismatch would be created or
enlarged, the entity is required to present all changes in fair value (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.
These Standards were mandatorily applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013. However, AASB 2012–6: Amendments to
Australian Accounting Standards – Mandatory Effective Date of AASB 9 and Transition Disclosures (issued September 2012) defers the mandatory application
date of AASB 9 from 1 January 2013 to 1 January 2015. In light of this change to the mandatory effective date, the Group is expected to adopt AASB 9 and AASB
2010–7 for the annual reporting period ending 31 December 2015. Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 and AASB 2010–7 may have a
significant impact on the Group’s financial instruments, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.
—
AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements, AASB 11: Joint Arrangements, AASB 12: Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, AASB 127: Separate Financial
Statements (August 2011) and AASB 128: Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (August 2011) (as amended by AASB 2012–10: Amendments to
Australian Accounting Standards – Transition Guidance and Other Amendments ), and AASB 2011–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising
from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
AASB 10 replaces parts of AASB 127: Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (March 2008, as amended) and Interpretation 112: Consolidation – Special
Purpose Entities . AASB 10 provides a revised definition of "control" and additional application guidance so that a single control model will apply to all investees.
This Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Group's financial statements.
AASB 11 replaces AASB 131: Interests in Joint Ventures (July 2004, as amended). AASB 11 requires joint arrangements to be classified as either "joint operations"
(where the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities) or "joint ventures" (where the parties
that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement).
AASB 12 contains the disclosure requirements applicable to entities that hold an interest in a subsidiary, joint venture, joint operation or associate. AASB 12 also
introduces the concept of a "structured entity", replacing the "special purpose entity" concept currently used in Interpretation 112, and requires specific
disclosures in respect of any investments in unconsolidated structured entities. This Standard will affect disclosures only and is not expected to significantly
impact the Group's financial statements.
To facilitate the application of AASBs 10, 11 and 12, revised versions of AASB 127 and AASB 128 have also been issued.
The revisions made to AASB 127 and AASB 128 are not expected to significantly impact the Group's financial statements.

AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement and AASB 2011–8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 13 (applicable for annual reporting
periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
AASB 13 defines fair value, sets out in a single Standard a framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurement.
AASB 13 requires:
─
─
inputs to all fair value measurements to be categorised in accordance with a fair value hierarchy; and
enhanced disclosures regarding all assets and liabilities (including, but not limited to, financial assets and financial liabilities) to be measured at fair value.
These Standards are expected to result in more detailed fair value disclosures, but are not expected to significantly impact the amounts recognised in the
Group’s financial statements.
—
AASB 2011–4: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards to Remove Individual Key Management Personnel Disclosure Requirements (applicable for
annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013).
This Standard makes amendments to AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures to remove the individual key management personnel disclosure requirements
(including paras Aus29.1 to Aus29.9.3). These amendments serve a number of purposes, including furthering trans-Tasman convergence, removing differences
from IFRSs, and avoiding any potential confusion with the equivalent Corporations Act 2001 disclosure requirements.
This Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Group’s financial report as a whole because:
─
─
some of the disclosures removed from AASB 124 will continue to be required under s 300A of the Corporations Act, which is applicable to the Group; and
AASB 2011-4 does not affect the related party disclosure requirements in AASB 124 applicable to all reporting entities, and some of these requirements
require similar disclosures to those removed by AASB 2011-4.
—
AASB 2012–2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (applicable for annual
reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
AASB 2012–2 principally amends AASB 7: Financial Instruments: Disclosures to require entities to include information that will enable users of their financial
statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements, including rights of set-off associated with the entity’s recognised financial assets
and recognised financial liabilities, on the entity’s financial position.
This Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Group’s financial statements.
—
AASB 2012–3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (applicable for annual reporting periods
commencing on or after 1 January 2014).
This Standard adds application guidance to AASB 132: Financial Instruments: Presentation to address potential inconsistencies identified in applying some of the
offsetting criteria of AASB 132, including clarifying the meaning of “currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off” and that some gross settlement systems
may be considered equivalent to net settlement.
This Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Group’s financial statements.
—
AASB 2012–5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Annual Improvements 2009–2011 Cycle (applicable for annual reporting periods
commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
This Standard amends a number of Australian Accounting Standards as a consequence of the issuance of Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2009–2011 Cycle by the
International Accounting Standards Board, including:
─
─
─
─
─
AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards to clarify the requirements in respect of the application of AASB 1 when an entity
discontinues and then resumes applying Australian Accounting Standards;
AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements and
AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting to clarify the requirements for presenting comparative information;
AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment to clarify the accounting treatment of spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment;
AASB 132 and Interpretation 2: Members’ Shares in Co-operative Entities and Similar Instruments to clarify the accounting treatment of any tax effect of a
distribution to holders of equity instruments; and
AASB 134 to facilitate consistency between the measures of total assets and liabilities an entity reports for its segments in its interim and annual financial
statements.

AASB127 Separate Financial Statements (Revised)
AASB128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (Reissued)
These standards are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. They have been modified to remove specific guidance that is
now contained in AASB10, AASB11 and AASB12. The adoption of these revised standards from 1 July 2013 will not have a material impact on the consolidated

Provision For Impairment of Receivables (continued)
Credit risk
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counter party or group of counter parties other than those receivables specifically
provided for and mentioned within Note 12. The class of assets described as Trade and Other Receivables is considered to be the main source of credit risk related to the
Group.
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. Amounts are considered as ‘past due’ when the debt has not been settled with the terms and conditions agreed between the Group and
the customer or counter party to the transaction. Receivables that are past due are assessed for impairment by ascertaining solvency of the debtors and are provided for
where there are specific circumstances indicating that the debt may not be fully repaid to the Group.
The balances of receivables that remain within initial trade terms (as detailed in the table) are considered to be of high credit quality.

On 17 October 2012, the Group reduced it's interest in the associated companies PT Ace Oldfields, Enduring Enterprises and Honeytree and Partners. This resulted in
a decrease in the ownership interest of the investments from 49% to 34%. Consideration received in relation to this sale was $391,820 and was received in the form
of a write back of the trade payable balance owing to the associated companies at the time the transaction occurred. The gain on the disposal of these shares was
$23,410.
During 2012, the Group dissolved the joint venture entity Brisbane Garden Sheds Pty Ltd. The wind-down of this entity was completed by 30 September 2011.

Intangible assets, other than goodwill, have finite useful lives. The current amortisation charges for intangible assets are included under depreciation and amortisation
expense per the statement of profit or loss. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life.

The recoverable amount of each cash-generating unit above is determined based on value-in-use calculations. Value-in-use is calculated based on the present value of cash
flow projections over a 5 year period.
The following assumptions were used in the value-in-use calculations:
Consumer products segment
Scaffold segment
Year 1
7.50%
4.00%
Growth Rate
Years 2 - 5
3.00%
4.00%
Discount Rate
Terminal Value
3.00%
3.00%
19.57%
17.33%
Management has based the value-in-use calculations on budgets for each reporting segment. These budgets use historical weighted average growth rates to project
revenue. Costs are calculated taking into account historical gross margins as well as estimated weighted average inflation rates over the period which are consistent with
inflation rates applicable to the locations in which the segments operate. Discount rates are pre-tax and are adjusted to incorporate risks associated with a particular
segment.
The calculation of value in use is most sensitive to changes in the discount rate. As disclosed in Note 1, the directors have made judgements and estimates in respect of
impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets. Should these estimates not occur the resulting goodwill and intangible assets may vary in carrying amount.
If the
discount rate was to increase by 3%, goodwill would not need to be impaired with all other assumptions remaining constant, for both the scaffold and consumer products
segments.

On 21 December 2012, the Group renewed its facility agreement with the bank for an additional 2 years 6 months. As part of this agreement, the Group bought back
$8 million of debt for a consideration of $2.5 million which was funded through capital raising which involved the issue of new equity.
The current facility agreement includes normal commercial terms and conditions which are subject to such covenants as interest cover ratios; capital expenditure
limits; gearing ratios; and the Group cannot create or acquire a new subsidiary unless that subsidiary becomes a party to the agreement.
In addition, the bank swapped senior debt for a Deferred Senior Loan Note (DSLN) for $2,370,224 with a 10 year maturity. The main terms of the loan note are as
follows:
—
—
—
—
—
—
—
—
The DSLN is secured against assets of the Group;
Interest will be capitalised and paid either on termination or early payment;
If the DSLN is repaid or partially repaid within the first 5 years, it will attract interest at 12% p.a;
If the DSLN is repaid or partially repaid after the first 5 years, the amount of interest paid will be dependent upon the share price of the Group, but capped at
12% per annum;
In the event that the weighted average share price of the company is the same or below the issue price of the capital raised at the time of the repayment after
the first 5 years, the only payment due will be the original debt;
The DSLN noteholder will also be entitled to receive a payment to the equivalent value of any dividend payment made by the Group;
Entitlement to a dividend-triggered payment will be based on the face value of the DSLN divided by the issue price upon commencement of the facility
agreement; and
Other normal conditions apply in respect to meeting gearing and interest cover ratios.
Accordingly, the DSLN has been identified as containing two main components: the core debt and a derivative element capturing the capital appreciation payment,
interest and dividend-triggered entitlement (refer note 24). The core debt is the residual after calculating the fair value of the embedded derivative and has been
discounted by 12% to net present value over the expected term of the DSLN (being 10 years) and is included in non-current borrowings.
As at 30 June 2012, all bank loans were classified as current in the financial report in accordance with the requirements of AASB101 Presentation of Financial
Statements. Under AASB101, unless the Group had an "unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date", the borrowings
must be classified as current.
The carrying amounts of non-current assets pledged as security are:
Floating charge over total current and non-current assets
19,067,028
20,563,309
Collateral provided
The bank overdrafts and bank loans of the Group are secured by a floating charge over the assets of the Group.
Hire purchase liabilities are secured by the underlying hire purchased assets.
Financial assets that have been pledged as part of the total collateral for the benefit of bank debt are as follows:
Cash and cash equivalents
Trade receivables
Total financial assets pledged
The collateral over cash and cash equivalents represents a floating charge.

Provision for Employee Benefits
Provision for employee benefits represents amounts accrued for annual leave and long service leave.
The current portion for this provision includes the total amount accrued for annual leave entitlements and the amounts accrued for long service leave entitlements that
have vested due to employees having completed the required period of service. Based on past experience, the Group does not expect the full amount of annual leave or
long service leave balances classified as current liabilities to be settled within the next 12 months. However, these amounts must be classified as current liabilities since the
Group does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of these amounts in the event employees wish to use their leave entitlement.
The non-current portion for this provision includes amounts accrued for long service leave entitlements that have not yet vested in relation to those employees who have
not yet completed the required period of service.
The probability of long service leave being taken is based on historical data. The measurement and recognition criteria relating to employee benefits have been included in
Note 1(m).

Forward exchange contracts
Forward exchange contracts are used to hedge cash flow risk associated with future transactions. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of these
derivatives are initially recognised directly in a hedge reserve in the equity section of the statement of financial position. At the date of the transaction, amounts
included in the hedge reserve are transferred from equity and included in either the statement of comprehensive income or the cost of assets. The statement of
changes in equity includes transfers to and from the hedge reserve.
(b)
Derivative Element - Deferred Senior Loan Note (capital appreciation, interest and dividend-triggered entitlement)
The capital appreciation, interest and dividend-triggered entitlement components of the Deferred Senior Loan Note, the details of which have been set out in note 21,
have been accounted for as a derivative financial instrument liability on the basis that interest payments are indexed to the value of issued capital, but capped at 12%
p.a. The assessed fair value of the derivative takes into account the expected cashflows incorporating the term (10 years) and discount rate used (12%).

Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group's financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks
and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues.
There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior year. This strategy is to identify opportunities
to reduce the Group's gearing ratio. The gearing ratios for the year ended 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012 are as follows:
Total borrowings
Less cash and cash equivalents
Net debt
Total equity
Total capital

The property leases are non-cancellable leases with 1-5 year terms, with rent payable monthly in advance. Contingent rental provisions within the lease agreements
require that minimum lease payments shall be increased by the lower of the change in the consumer price index (CPI) or 3-5% per annum. Options exist to renew
certain leases at the end of the term for an additional term of 1-5 years.
Note 27
Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
The Group does not have any significant contingent liabilities or contingent assets as 30 June 2013 or 30 June 2012.
Note 28
Operating Segments
General Information
Identification of reportable segments
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the board of directors in assessing performance and in
determining the allocation of resources.
The Group is managed primarily on the basis of product category and service offerings as the diversification of the Group's operations inherently have notably different risk
profiles and performance assessment criteria. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.
Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics and are also
similar with respect to the following:
—
—
—
—
—
the products sold and/or services provided by the segment;
the manufacturing process;
the type or class of customer for the products or service;
the distribution method; and
any external regulatory requirements.
Types of products and services by segment
(i)
Consumer Products
The consumer products segment manufactures and markets paint brushes, paint rollers, painters tools, Treco garden sheds, outdoor storage systems, aviaries and
pet homes.
(ii)
Scaffolding
The scaffolding segment manufactures and markets scaffolding and related equipment. In addition, this segment is engaged in hiring scaffolding related products to
the building and construction industry.
Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
(a)
Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief operating decision makers with respect to operating segments, are
determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group.
(b)
Inter-segment transactions
All inter-segment transactions are eliminated on consolidation of the Group's financial statements.
Corporate charges are allocated to reporting segments based on the segment's overall proportion of revenue generation within the Group. The Board of Directors
believes this is representative of likely consumption of head office expenditure that should be used in assessing segment performance and cost recoveries.
Inter-segment loans payable and receivable are initially recognised at the consideration received/to be received net of transaction costs. If intersegment loans
receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not adjusted to fair value based on market interest rates. This policy represents a departure from that
applied to the statutory financial statements.
(c)
(d)
Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of the economic value from the asset. In most
instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
Segment liabilities
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax
liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables and certain direct
borrowings.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management
The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk consisting of interest rate risk and foreign currency
risk. There have been no substantive changes in the types of risks the Group is exposed to, how these risks arise, or the Board’s objectives, policies and processes for
managing or measuring the risks from the previous period.
a.
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 the maintenance of procedures (such procedures include the utilisation of systems for the approval, granting and renewal of credit
limits, regular monitoring of exposures against such limits and monitoring of the financial stability of significant customers and counterparties), ensuring to the extent
possible, that customers and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness. 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 invoice date.
Credit Risk Exposures
The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at the end of the reporting period, excluding the value of any collateral or other security
held is equivalent to the carrying amount and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the statement of financial position. 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 21(e)
for details).
Collateral held by the Group securing receivables is detailed in Note 12.
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties. Details with respect to credit risk of Trade and Other
Receivables is provided in Note 12.
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 12.
b.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities.
The Group manages this risk through the following mechanisms:
• preparing forward-looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities
• monitoring undrawn credit facilities
• maintaining a reputable credit profile
• managing credit risk related to financial assets
The tables below reflect an undiscounted contractual maturity analysis for financial liabilities. The bank does however maintain the right to review the facilities
annually with the next annual review date being 31 December 2013.
Cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may therefore differ from that disclosed. The
timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflect the earliest contractual settlement dates and do not reflect management’s expectations
that banking facilities will be rolled forward.

Certain financial assets have been pledged as security for debt and their realisation into cash may be restricted subject to terms and conditions attached to the relevant
debt contracts. Refer to Note 21(c) for further details.
In the above table, the derivative element of the DSLN has been shown at face value due to significant uncertainty regarding the capital appreciation, interest and divdend-
triggered entitlement, as disclosed in note 21(b), within the terms and conditions of the instrument without consideration for future cash outflows of interest.
c. Market Risk
i.
Interest rate risk
Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates
will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments.
Interest rate risk is managed using a mix of fixed and floating rate debt.
ii.
Foreign exchange risk
The board and senior management regularly monitor foreign currency movements and has undertaken to use hedging contracts where appropriate to the value of up
to 100% of it's US dollar requirements over a maximum 6 week period.
Sensitivity Analysis
The following table illustrates sensitivities to the Group’s exposures to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and commodity and equity prices. The table indicates the
impact on how profit and equity values reported at the end of the reporting period would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variable that management
considers to be reasonably possible.
These sensitivities assume that the movement in a particular variable is independent of other variables.

Fair Values
Fair value estimation
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the following table and can be compared to their carrying amounts as presented in the statement
of financial position. Fair value is the amount at which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length
transaction.

Fair Values (continued)
Fair values derived may be based on information that is estimated or subject to judgment, where changes in assumptions may have a material impact on the amounts

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 amounts 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 (ie term receivables, held-to-maturity assets, loan liabilities), are
to be held until maturity and therefore the fair value figures calculated bare little relevance to the Group.

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Oldfields Holdings Limited, which comprises
the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2013, the consolidated statement of

and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary
of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration
of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end
or from time to time during the financial year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act

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

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 company’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
The board of directors of Oldfields Holdings Limited is committed to high standards of corporate governance and adopts wherever
possible the principles outlined in the Corporate Governance Principles and Best Practice Recommendations with 2010
amendments, published by the ASX Corporate Governance Council.
The recommendations are written in a principles based fashion and individual boards are able to choose whether to follow the
recommended practices or to adopt other practices that are better suited to the individual circumstances of the Group. Given the
size and specific circumstances of Oldfields Holdings Limited the Board recognises that some of the best practice recommendations
are not suited to obtaining the best shareholder outcomes at the present time. This situation is monitored by the Board and the
recommendations will be adopted as and when the Group’s circumstances allow.
All relevant best practice recommendations of the ASX Corporate Governance Council have been applied for the financial year ended
30 June 2013 unless specifically disclosed below. Where a recommended practice has not been followed a detailed description of
the practices adopted in its stead is provided together with a commentary on how the risks of non-adoption of the recommended
practice are mitigated.

The board of directors are accountable to the shareholders for the performance of the Group. The board sets the strategic direction
and delegate’s responsibility for the management of the Group to the chief executive officer.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Principle 2. STRUCTURE THE BOARD TO ADD VALUE
The board currently has three directors, comprising two non-executive directors, including the chairman, and one executive director.
The board has adopted the following principles:
•
•
•
The same individual should not exercise the roles of chairman and chief executive officer;
The board should not comprise a majority of executive directors; and
The board should comprise persons with a broad range of skills and experience appropriate to the needs of the Group.
Recommendation 2.1 – Majority of the board should be independent directors.
Independent directors are those who are independent of management and free of any business or other relationship that could
materially interfere with, or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with, the exercise of their unfettered and
independent judgment.
In assessing the independence of directors, an independent director is a non-executive director and:
•
•
•
•
Is not a substantial shareholder, as defined in section 9 of the Corporations Act, of the Group or an officer of, or otherwise
associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the Group;
Has not within the last three years been employed in an executive capacity by the Group or another group member, and
there has been a period of at least three years between ceasing such employment and serving on the board;
Has not within the last three years been a principal of a material professional advisor or a material consultant to the Group
or another group member, or an employee materially associated with the service provided; and
Is not a material supplier or customer of the Group or other group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated directly
or indirectly with a material supplier or customer;
At the date of this report only Stephen Charles Hooper is an independent director.
The following directors do not meet the independence criteria listed above:
•
•
William Lewis Timms: appointed 18th December 2009, currently a non-executive director and substantial shareholder;
Christopher Giles: appointed 24th September 2010, currently an executive director and shareholder; and
The board manages the risk of having a majority of non-independent directors through the provision of a well-qualified independent
chairman, restrictions on trading in shares, restrictions on related party transactions, a close relationship with the principal provider

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Principle 4. THE BOARD SAFEGUARDS THE INTEGRITY OF FINANCIAL REPORTING
The chief executive officer and the chief financial officer state, in writing, to the board that the Group’s financial reports present a
true and fair view, in all material respects, of the Group’s financial position and operational results and are in accordance with
relevant accounting standards.
Recommendation 4.1 – the board should establish an audit committee.
The board has an audit committee, which:
•
•
•
Has two members who are non-executive directors;
Has a written charter which can be obtained from the Corporate Governance section of the Group’s website; and
Includes members who are all financially literate.
Details of the members are disclosed in the Director’s Report.
The board recognises that an independent audit committee is an important feature of good corporate governance.
Recommendation 4.2 – The audit committee should be structured so that it consists only of non-executive directors, consists of a
majority of independent directors, is chaired by an independent chair, who is not chair of the board, and has at least three members.
The audit committee:
•
•
•
consists only of non-executive directors, however all directors are entitled to receive the papers of the committee and to
attend meetings of the committee and to meet with the auditors;
is chaired by an independent chairman, who is not chair of the board;
has two members. Given the size and structure of the board, as discussed in Recommendation 2.1, the board feels that two
members both of whom are financially literate, is sufficient at this time.
The risk with a small committee is that the members will lack the diversity to raise and recognise issues. Risk is managed through
specific working arrangements with the auditors having access to the full board at any time upon their request and through ensuring
that the chairman of the audit committee is a well-qualified independent director. It is intended to review this arrangement and
adopt the recommended practice if and when the board composition changes.
Recommendation 4.3 – Audit committee should have a formal charter.
The audit committee has a formal charter, the key elements of the charter are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Role of the committee;
Membership;
Meetings;
Responsibilities;
Authority;
Independence; and
Non-audit work.
The board and audit committee closely monitor the independence of the external auditor. The audit committee meets a minimum of
twice a year. The committee also meets in private, with management without the external auditor and, at a separate time, with the
external auditor without management.
Recommendation 4.4 - Provide information recommended in the Guide on Principal 4.
The members of the audit committee are:
•
•
Stephen Charles Hooper (Chairman); and
William Lewis Timms.
The details of the qualifications of the audit committee members are disclosed in the Directors’ Report.
The details of the number of audit committee meetings held are contained in the Directors’ Report.
Departures from recommendations included in Principle 4 have been disclosed in the discussion of the relevant recommendations.

Principle 5. THE BOARD MAKES TIMELY AND BALANCED DISCLOSURE
Recommendation 5.1 – Establish policy on ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements and ensure accountability at a senior executive
level for that compliance and disclose those policies or a summary of those policies.
The Group has established procedures to ensure compliance with ASX Listing Rules which require that when an entity becomes
aware of any information concerning it that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of the
entity’s securities, the entity must immediately tell ASX that information.
A Continuous Disclosure Policy and Procedure has been prepared and is available from the Corporate Governance section of the
Group’s website.

Recommendation 6.1 – Companies should design a communications policy for promoting effective communication with shareholders
and encouraging their participation at general meetings and disclose their policy or a summary of that policy.
The Group has developed and implemented a shareholder communication strategy. The Group promotes effective communication
with shareholders and encourages effective participation at the Group’s general meetings.

in a timely and full manner.
Recommendation 6.2: Companies should provide the information indicated in the Guide to reporting on Principle 6.
The Shareholder Communication Strategy is available on the Oldfields website.
Principle 7. RECOGNISE AND MANAGE RISK
Recommendation 7.1 – Companies should establish policies for the oversight and management of material business risks and disclose
a summary of those policies.
The board recognises that there are a number of complex operational, commercial, financial and legal risks and has in place
procedures to safeguard the Group’s assets and interests.
A Work Health and Safety Committee has been established to monitor and recommend changes to safe working practices and a safe
working environment. The chairman is not a director, and the committee comprises the managing director, senior executive officers
and employee representatives.
The board has developed a risk management policy the purpose of which is:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Identify, access, monitor and manage risk;
Inform investors of material changes to the Group’s risk profile;
Enhance the environment for capitalising on value creation opportunities;
Ensure compliance with the Corporations Act;
Consider the reasonable expectations of its stakeholders;
The measures and procedures in place to comply with these regulations; and

RISK MANAGEMENT STATEMENT
1.
Introduction
This statement provides an overview of the Group's risk management policies and internal compliance and control systems in
accordance with Principle 7 of the ASX Principles of Good Corporate Governance.
2. Responsibility
The board of directors are responsible for oversight on a regular basis of the Group's procedures and risk management policies. The
responsibility of the board is codified under the Board Charter, which is available on the Group’s website. The Group also has an
audit committee, the responsibilities of which are documented in the Audit Committee Charter which is also available on the
Group’s website.
3. Risk Management Monitoring
The board has implemented a combination of internal policies and procedures and use of external audits to monitor risk
management and its effectiveness.
3.1. Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's)
The board has implemented risk management policies covering areas of business risk such as:
•
•
•
•
•
Work health and safety;
Finance and treasury;
Human resources;
Asset protection (insurance); and
Codes of conduct.
The policies referred to are regularly reviewed and an internal mechanism exists whereby the board and committee members have
access to these reports on an internal intranet site. The board manages these risks appropriately with reference to identification,
implementation and review of these risks and procedures.
3.2. External Audits
The external audit of the Group is conducted annually. There is also a formal review at least once every year. Both the audit and
review are conducted by an external auditor.
The Group has a Work Health and Safety Committee which has received training and certification by external OH&S providers.
The Group engages with qualified external advisors annually in relation to asset protection. Where possible the board adopts the
most practical and affordable insurance policies suitable to protect major assets of the Group.
In general an external qualified auditor and or valuers are engaged by the board in determining large asset values on acquisition of
assets. An external valuation is obtained to determine and verify carrying values of investment property by an external
independent registered property valuer at least every three years.
3.3. Risk Management Statements
The integrity of the Group's financial reports relies on sound business and risk control systems.
Annually, the chief executive officer (CEO) and the chief financial officer (CFO) are required to sign a Risk Management Statement
that is provided to the audit committee in writing.
The CEO and CFO sign a statement regarding the adequacy of financial controls in accordance with section 295a of the Corporations
Act 2001.
The board requires management to report on the key business risks for each area of the business at each board meeting.
3.4 Internal Audit
Given the Group's size, an internal auditor is not practical. In addition the presence of executive directors on the board allows for
detailed oversight of risks within each business by managers who are familiar with the risk environment but not directly involved in
the management of that particular business.
OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES
ABN 02 000 307 988
RISK MANAGEMENT STATEMENT
3.5 External Covenants
The Group has voluntarily associated itself with the following self-regulated authorities:
•
•
WGE (Workplace Gender Equality Act): The Group reports annually on targets and policy to an external agency in regards to
Equal Opportunity Guidelines and Policy within the work force. The board receives and reviews this annually; and
Australian Packaging Covenant: The Group sets targets to reduce packaging waste and environmental impact of packaging
waste. Targets are set and guidelines adopted and where possible administered by management. The board reviews these
targets annually.
The Group has also entered into an agreement with its principal lender (Westpac Banking Corporation) which provides external
overview of financial risks by a representative of the bank.
4. Formal Risk Management Practices
The Group operates a formal process for risk management which includes:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Risk identification;
Risk analysis;
Risk evaluation;
Risk mitigation;
Risk monitoring and reporting; and
Risk communication.
The risk management process meets appropriate professional standards and is reviewed annually by the board of directors. The
process meets, but is not limited to the requirements of Principle 7 of the ASX Principles for Good Corporate Governance.
5. Risk Reporting and Communication
Risks are reported and their monitoring and management are communicated in accordance with the diagram below:
Material Risks
General Reporting
Accountabilities
Direct risk response or accept material
risk
Review and approve
strategies or accept risk
risk mitigation
Oversight of framework and sufficiency of

Implement risk response or escalate to
board of directors

mitigation strategies
Oversight of corporate risks and adequacy

Implement and monitor ERM framework
and ERM system
Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

Communication
Effective risk management is reliant on the timely and open communication of actual or potential risk events across the
organisation. Free and frank communication is at the heart of the Group's risk management approach, and where the processes and
accountabilities described in these standards may not support a suitably rapid response to any risk, then communication should be
undertaken using whatever means to achieve the best outcome for the Group.
For the avoidance of doubt, Oldfields Holdings Limited has a policy of ‘not shooting the messenger’ and encourages all staff to
report risks of which they are aware.
