OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORTCHAIRMAN AND CEO LETTER

Dear Shareholder

The Directors of Oliver’s Real Food Limited 
(“Olivers”, the “Company”, or “OLI”) are pleased 
to present the first annual report since the 
company’s initial public offering on the Australian 
Securities Exchange on 21 June 2017.

The 2017 financial year (“FY2017”) was one that 
positioned our business for a healthy outlook, 
including the achievement of numerous key 
milestones that shape our organisation:

 → Opening 3 new stores at Chinderah,  

Ferry Park and Ballarat;

 → Buyback of 7 franchises, with one more 

completed after the close of the year, to 
fulfill the strategy for 100% company owned 
structure;

 → Delivering close to $21 million in revenue, 

being 21% higher than the prior year and on a 
trajectory to achieve $42m in FY18;

 → Completing sizing and site identification 

survey to confirm $1bn east coast highway 
food market and Oliver’s market share is 
approximately 3% of this total; 

 → Significant investment in the Oliver’s 

proprietary technology platform known as 
OliVerse, making considerable progress 
towards delivery of a single-point platform 
and internal capabilities that 
provide operating efficiency 
via daily purchasing 
& inventory data to 
stores, distribution 
centres and 
kitchens;

 → Renewal of 

the Australian 
Certified Organic 
(ACO) Standard, 
allowing the 
Company to label 
certain processes 
and products as 
‘Certified Organic’. 
This is a core part 
of the Company’s 
branding. Qualifying for 

4

this certificate requires rigorous adherence 
to the ACO rules not only by Oliver’s but also 
by its suppliers;

 → The successful launch of a new and 

innovative range of plant-based vegan and 
vegetarian offerings from the IKU company, 
in addition to the introduction of organic 
edamame beans and Australia’s first organic 
coconut water offering;

 → Completion of the assignment of the global 
registered and unregistered intellectual 
property rights to Oliver’s Real Food Limited;

 → Buy the remaining 24% interest in Retail 
Technology Services Pty Ltd to enable 
Oliver’s Real Food Limited to control design, 
development and delivery of technology for 
the brand and its related entities;

 → Strengthening our leadership team with the 
appointment of key executives holding prior 
C suite experience, the build out of the Board 
to deepen financial expertise and broaden 
exposure to retail operations; and

 → Successfully listing on the Australian stock 
exchange, after raising $15m, in a difficult 
market environment.

STRONGLY POSITIONED TO ACHIEVE 
FY18 PROSPECTUS FORECAST

We have already changed the way 

hundreds of thousands of people 
eat when they are travelling, 

and many people tell us that 
we have “changed their 
lives” (and their health) 
for the better. But this 
positive impact is just the 
beginning for Oliver’s. 

The Board believes that 
Oliver’s is well positioned 
for substantial growth, 
leveraging our first mover 
advantage in providing 
organic healthy fast food 
free of artificial additives on 

Australia’s major highways.

5

Importantly, the distribution 
and product strategies 
that have been used 
to grow the business 
over many years 
will be enhanced 
and the expansion 
efforts will be 
accelerated from 
the capital raised 
on 21 June 2017.

As a newly listed 
entity, the Board and 
Management of Oliver’s 
Real Food Limited are 
focused on maximising 
FY18 potential of the 
business and creating sustained 
growth. This will be delivered via:

 → Continued roll out of new stores across 

Australia, having plans to operate 33 stores 
by end FY18 expected to deliver $42m 
annualised revenue;

 → New store acquisitions which are consistent 

with the growth plans detailed in the Oliver’s 
Prospectus. We are pleased to announce 
that we have strong momentum in place, and 
since 30 June 2017 we have secured strategic 
locations in Maryborough and Euroa. More 
acquisition announcements will follow 
shortly.

 → Completion of buyback for the remaining 

interest in The Delicious and Nutritious Food 
Company Pty Ltd, producer of the Red 
Dragon Organics range of specialist organic 
beverages being distributed through 500+ 
retailers and cafes;

 → Internal efficiency programmes that were 

established in FY17, delivering Cost of Goods 
and Staff Cost saving targets, after two 
months of trading in FY18;

 → Expanding the capability of our operational 
management teams including our store 
managers, regional managers and executive 
team who all support store performance, 
customer advocacy, brand momentum and 
shareholder returns;

 → Investing in the Oliver’s 

Marketplace online sales 

platform to enable Oliver’s Real 
Food Shop to deliver a richer 
online sales experience 
across a broader range of 
products to a wider market 
with digital advertising 
plans for FY18;

 →Continued expansion 
of our product offerings 
across various channels, 
with Oliver’s Nespresso 
compatible compostable 

organic coffee capsules proving 

an example of recent success in 
product extension to new markets 
online and Red Dragon’s organic lemon, 
lime and bitters growing its reach and overall 
sales.

Given the progress being made in FY18 to date, 
the Directors feel Oliver’s Real Food Limited is 
well positioned to achieve its FY18 Prospectus 
forecast. 

We would like to thank our committed and 
passionate staff across Australia, who work 
tirelessly on a daily basis to deliver the solid 
growth and operational improvements across 
the business. Thank you also to the Board and 
the various advisors that successfully guided 
Oliver’s Real Food Limited through its listing on 
the Australian stock exchange on 21 June 2017.

Thank you for your confidence and continued 
support in these early stages of our thriving 
listed organisation. Your Directors believe 
Oliver’s is well positioned to deliver healthy 
returns for the many OLI shareholders in the year 
ahead.

The Group’s revenues increased by 21.2% to $20.7 million mainly due to like-for-like sales growth, new 
store openings and the buyback of certain franchised stores.

This increase in revenues combined with strong business controls flowed through to increased gross 
profit for the financial period of $13.9 million with gross margin increased from 61.3% to 67.2%.

EBITDA, NPAT and EPS were impacted by significant items.  These included $0.7 million of costs 
associated with the IPO and $0.1 million on loss from disposal of fixed assets.  Further, additional 
corporate overheads were incurred for the IPO and for the anticipated growth in FY2018,

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS

On 21 June 2017, Oliver’s successfully listed its shares on ASX having raised $15,000,000 (before costs) 
by initial public offering.

On 1 December 2016, the company acquired all the equity issued by Revilo’s Pty Limited for total 
consideration of $455,416 (including 1,833,330 shares at $0.19 each). Revilo’s Pty Limited is the holding 
company of its wholly-owned subsidiaries: a) Coffs Harbour Franchise Pty Ltd which is the franchisee of 
the Oliver’s franchised store; and b) Slacks Creek Pty Ltd which is the franchisee of the Oliver’s Slacks 
Creek store.

On 1 May 2017, the company acquired a further 24% of the outstanding shares in Retail Technology 
Services Pty Ltd for a share consideration at a fair value of $103,625 (i.e. 500,000 ordinary shares at 
$0.20725 each). This brings the Parent entity interest in Retail Technology Services Pty Ltd to 100%.

During the year, the Group acquired four businesses with the intention to convert the existing 
businesses into Oliver’s branded stores as well as bought back 6 franchised stores, the details of which 
are included in note 14 of the Financial Report.

In June 2017, the Group acquired the global intellectual property of ‘Oliver’s’ for a share consideration 
of $500,000, settled by way of the issue of 2.5m shares, from Taonga Nui Holdings Limited, a company 
associated with two directors of the company, details of which are included in note 28 of the Financial 
Report.

In the opinion of the Directors, there were no other significant changes in state of affairs of the Group 
that occurred during the financial year under review.

MATTERS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE FINANCIAL PERIOD

On 7 July 2017, the company acquired the remaining 25% equity interest in The Delicious & Nutritious 
Co Pty Ltd (the owner of the intellectual property and the business known as Red Dragon), which the

a lack of good faith.

During the financial year, the company paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the directors 
and executives of the company against a liability to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 
2001. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the

by the auditor are outlined in Note 7 to the financial statements.

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORTOVERVIEW OF OLIVER’S REMUNERATION FRAMEWORK

Oliver’s remuneration strategy and policies aim to attract and retain talented people to run and manage 
Oliver’s and to align their interests with that of Shareholders. The Board is committed to having a 
remuneration strategy and policy that rewards, and retains appropriately experienced and skilled 
employees and executives throughout all levels of the company.

In the case of all senior employees, this will be realised by providing a fixed remuneration component 
together with specific ‘at risk’ performance based short-term incentives and, where appropriate 
for selected executives, long-term equity incentives subject to market competitive service and  
performance conditions.

The Board has committed to regularly reviewing all Board and key executive management remuneration 
and incentive arrangements (at least biennially) to ensure they remain competitive, in line with market 
expectations and guidelines and remain appropriate for Oliver’s as it changes and grows.

GOVERNANCE

When Oliver’s listed on the ASX, it established a Remuneration and Nomination Committee (RNC) 
whose role is to assist the Board with its remuneration responsibilities, to ensure that Oliver’s:

 → has coherent and appropriate remuneration policies and practices which enable Oliver’s to attract 

and retain Directors and executives who will create value for Shareholders;

 → fairly and responsibly remunerates Directors and executives having regard to Oliver’s performance, 

the performance of the executives and the general market environment; and

 → has policies and procedures that are effective to attract, motivate and retain appropriately skilled 
and diverse people that meet Oliver’s needs and that are consistent with Oliver’s strategic goals 
and human resource objectives.

The members of the RNC comprise Mark Richardson (Chair), Kathy Hatzis and John Diddams, each of 
whom are Non- executive Directors and all have appropriate qualifications and experience to enable 
the RNC to fulfil its role.

EXTERNAL REMUNERATION CONSULTANTS

The Terms of Reference for the RNC requires that any remuneration consultants engaged be appointed 
by the RNC. During FY2017 Oliver’s engaged the services of Ian Crichton, Principal, Crichton & 
Associates Pty Limited as external remuneration consultants, however whilst these services did not 
include a remuneration recommendation in relation to any of Oliver’s key management personnel, they 
did include a benchmarking analysis.

Any advice that may be received from remuneration consultants will be carefully considered by the 
RNC to ensure it is given free of undue influence by Oliver’s executives. 

STRUCTURE OF REMUNERATION

The remuneration framework for KMP includes both fixed and performance-based pay.  

Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration is set using a combination of historical levels and sector comparisons. Fixed 
remuneration includes base pay, statutory contributions for superannuation and non-monetary benefits.

Superannuation is provided up to the statutory maximum allowed. Other benefits may include phone 
allowance, ‘packaged’ motor vehicle, supplementary superannuation and other items determined on 
total employment cost basis.

18

19

Fixed remuneration will be reviewed annually and any increases approved by the RNC and the Board 
based on market movements, promotion or above average performance appraisal scores.

In addition to fixed remuneration, each of the executive KMP are entitled to additional Short Term 
Incentives (STI) and Long Term Incentives (LTI), as outlined below, subject to achieving pre-determined 
milestones.

Short Term Incentive 

Oliver’s short-term incentive plan is designed to reward employees and executives for performance 
against a pre-determined scorecard of measures linked to Oliver’s short-term business performance for 
the relevant 12 month performance period (individual and team performance are also considered for 
selected roles).

The specific performance measures may vary from year to year depending on Oliver’s evolving business 
and financial objectives. The measures are selected on the basis that they will lead to improved and 
sustainable financial performance and shareholder returns.

In FY17, there was no STI paid to executive KMP.

Long Term Incentive

Oliver’s will consider offers under LTI to selected executives on an annual basis that will be designed 
to provide both retention and incentive impact if the executive remains employed with Oliver’s for a 
minimum term and Oliver’s meets performance vesting conditions set.

An initial grant of LTI made prior to the IPO was awarded as Options under the Oliver’s Employee 
Incentive Plan (OEIP). These Options are subject to the OEIP rules and other regulatory requirements, 
including the ASX Listing Rules.

The CEO and CFO received a pre-IPO grant of 1,000,000 and 400,000 Options respectively.  No 
further offers have been made to the CEO and CFO under the OEIP at this stage.

A summary of the terms of OEIP and details of the pre-IPO Grant Options are set out in this Report and 
were detailed in the Prospectus.

Any proposed future grants of Options to the CEO will be submitted to shareholders for approval.

Proportions of fixed and variable remuneration

The Board and RNC consider annually the fixed remuneration and proportion of variable remuneration 
that is dependent on performance (“at risk”) for each executive KMP. The relative proportions of fixed 
versus variable pay received by executive KMP during the current financial period and proposed for the 
next financial period are as follows: 

Fixed Remuneration

At Risk - STI (on target)

At Risk - LTI (on target)

Assessment Of Performance

Performance of executive KMPs will be assessed against the agreed non-financial and financial targets 
on a regular basis.  Based on this assessment, the Chairman will make a recommendation to the RNC for 
Board approval of the amount of STI and LTI to award (as applicable) to each KMP.

Performance and Impact On Remuneration

It should be noted that there is no direct link between remuneration and performance in FY17.  There 
were no STI payments made in FY17 to executive KMP and the only LTI award made was for pre-IPO 
grants of options.

The Board will report on the link between pay and performance in future reports.

SHARE BASED REMUNERATION

Oliver’s operates an LTI plan for eligible senior executives (the Oliver Employee Incentive Plan (OEIP)) as 
a means of encouraging employees to share in the ownership of the Company and promote its long-
term success as a common goal. The Board will make offers to persons to participate in the OEIP based 
on their contribution to the Company. Under the terms of the OEIP the Board may make awards of 
Options, performance rights, service rights, deferred share awards, exempt share awards, cash rights or 
stock appreciation rights. No offer of an award may be made to the extent it breaches the Constitution, 
the Listing Rules, the Corporations Act or any other applicable law.

Grants of 3,700,000 Options were made to twenty senior executives (including the CEO and CFO) pre-
IPO as disclosed in the Prospectus and in the remuneration tables at the end of this Report.  No grants 
of Options have been made since listing on the ASX on 21 June 2017.  

The key terms of the OEIP and details of the pre-IPO Award to KMP are as follows:

All capitalised terms have the meaning as defined within the OEIP.

20

21

Purpose

The purpose of the OEIP is to encourage Employees to share in the ownership 
of the Company and to promote the long-term success of the Company as a 
goal shared by all Employees.

Eligibility

Participants in the OEIP must be persons who are in full-time or part-time 
employment of a Group Company and includes a director of a Group Company.

Form of Equity

The Company may offer an Award which includes an Option, a Performance 
Right, a Service Right, a Deferred Share Award, an Exempt Share Award, a Cash 
Right, or a Stock Appreciation Right, in accordance with the terms of the OEIP.

The Company may offer or issue Options, which are rights to be issued a 
Share upon payment of the Exercise Price and satisfaction of specified Vesting 
Conditions. These terms apply unless the Offer specifies otherwise: 

 → Options are Restricted Awards until they are exercised or expire. 

 → An Offer may specify a Restriction Period for Shares issued on the exercise 

of Options. 

 →  Options are subject to adjustment.

FY17 Pre-IPO Award

To date, only Options have been granted under the OEIP.

Terms of the Award

A grant of Awards under the OEIP are subject to the terms and conditions of 
the OEIP Rules, the Offer documentation, the Company’s Constitution, the ASX 
Listing Rules, the Corporations Act or any other applicable law.

FY17 Pre-IPO Award - Executive KMP

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORTVesting and Exercise

The Awards held by a Participant will vest in and become exercisable by that 
Participant upon the satisfaction of any Vesting Conditions specified in the 
Offer and in accordance with the OEIP.

Vesting Conditions may be waived at the absolute discretion of the Board 
(unless such waiver is excluded by the terms of the Award).

The vesting of an Award on the satisfaction of any Vesting Conditions will not 
automatically trigger the exercise of the Award unless specified in the Offer.

A Participant is, subject to the OEIP, entitled to exercise an Award on or after 
the Vesting Date. Any exercise must be for a minimum number or multiple of 
Shares (if any) specified in the terms of the Offer.

If the Board determines that for a taxation, legal, regulatory or compliance 
reason it is not appropriate to issue or transfer Shares, the Company may in lieu 
and final satisfaction of the Company’s obligation to issue or transfer Shares as 
required upon the exercise of an Award by a Participant, make a cash payment 
to the Participant equivalent to the Fair Market Value as at the date of exercise 
of the Award (less any unpaid Exercise Price applicable to the exercise of the 
Award) multiplied by the relevant number of Shares required to be issued or 
transferred to the Participant upon exercise of the Award.

If a Participant dies or becomes disabled before the end of the Restriction 
Period or prior to the Vesting Date, the Board will determine, in its sole and 
absolute discretion, the manner in which all unvested or restricted Awards will 
be dealt with. 

With respect to Options, Performance Rights, Service Rights and other Awards 
where the Participant may be entitled to acquire Shares in the future on exercise 
of the Award:

 →  A Participant is not entitled to participate in a new issue of Shares or other 

securities made by the Company to holders of its Shares without exercising 
the Awards before the record date for the relevant issue.

 →  If, prior to the exercise of an Award, the Company makes a pro-rata bonus 

issue to the holders of its Shares, and the Award is not exercised prior to the 
record date in respect of that bonus issue, the Award will, when exercised, 
entitle the holder to one Share plus the number of bonus shares which 
would have been issued to the holder if the Award had been exercised prior 
to the record date.

 →  If, prior to the exercise of an Award, the Company undergoes a 

reorganisation of capital (other than by way of a bonus issue or issue for 
cash) the terms of the Awards of the Participant will be changed to the 
extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules as they apply at the 
relevant time.

Adjustments - 
Reorganisation of 
Capital, Bonus and New 
Issues

Restriction Period

Restriction Period means the period during which Awards, or Shares issued 
on exercise of Awards, must not be sold or disposed of, being the period 
specified in the OEIP, and as specified in the Offer.

22

23

Change of Control

Change of Control means, in relation to the Company, either:

 →  any person, either alone or together with any associate (as defined in the 
Corporations Act), who did not have a relevant interest (as defined in the 
Corporations Act) in more than 50% of the issued Shares in the Company, 
acquires a relevant interest in more than 50% of the issued Shares in the 
Company other than listing on a recognised stock exchange before 31 
December 2017; or 

 →  the Board concludes that there has been a change in the Control of the 

Company. 

On the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Board will determine, in its sole 
and absolute discretion, the manner in which all unvested and vested Awards 
will be dealt with. 

If a takeover bid is made to acquire all the issued Shares of the Company, or 
a scheme of arrangement, selective capital reduction or other transaction 
is initiated which has an effect similar to a full takeover bid for Shares in 
the Company, then Participants are entitled to accept the takeover bid or 
participate in the other transaction in respect of all or part of their Awards 
other than Exempt Share Awards notwithstanding that the Restriction Period in 
respect of such Awards has not expired. The Board may, in its discretion, waive 
unsatisfied Vesting Conditions in relation to some or all Awards in the event of 
such a takeover or other transaction.

Non-transerable Awards

A Participant must not sell, transfer, mortgage, pledge, charge, grant security 
over or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Awards, or agree to do any of 
those things, during the Restriction Period. 

The Company may implement any procedures it considers appropriate to 
ensure that Restricted Awards are not disposed of during the Restriction 
Period, including applying a holding lock in respect of Shares.

The Board may at any time in its discretion waive or shorten the Restriction 
Period applicable to an Award.

No Hedging

Participants must not enter into transactions or arrangements, including by 
way of derivatives or similar financial products, which limit the economic risk of 
holding unvested Awards.

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORTShare Issues

Shares issued under the OEIP will upon allotment: 

 → be credited as fully paid; 
 → rank equally for dividends and other entitlements where the record date 
is on or after the date of allotment, but will carry no right to receive any 
dividend or entitlement where the record date is before the date of 
allotment; and 

 → be subject to any restrictions imposed under the OEIP, and 
 → otherwise rank equally with the existing issued Shares at the time of 

allotment.

As soon as practicable after the date of the allotment of Shares, the Company 
will, unless the Board otherwise resolves, apply for official quotation of such 
Shares on the ASX.

The Company may, in its discretion, either issue new Shares or cause existing 
Shares to be acquired for transfer to the Participant, or a combination of both 
alternatives, to satisfy the Company’s obligations under the OEIP.

If the Company determines to cause the transfer of Shares to a Participant, the 
Shares may be acquired in such manner as the Company considers appropriate, 
including from a trustee appointed under the OEIP. 

The Company may appoint a trustee on terms and conditions which it considers 
appropriate to acquire and hold Shares, options, or other securities of the 
Company either on behalf of Participants or for the purposes of the OEIP.

Administration of the 
OEIP and Amendment

The OEIP will be administered by the Board, or a committee of the Board, which 
will have an absolute discretion. 

The Board may only exercise its powers in accordance with the Listing Rules.

An Offer of Awards must not be made if the total of: 

 →  the number of Shares which are the subject of the Offer of Awards; and 

 →  underlying Shares issued or that may be issued as a result of any Offers of 

Award, or similar offer of Shares under a predecessor or other employee 
incentive plan, made at any time during the previous 3 year period in 
reliance on relief granted by ASIC (however obtained),

would exceed 5% of the number of Shares on issue at the time of the Offer. 

Under no circumstances will Awards be granted under the OEIP if it is an issue 
of securities that, combined with all other employee share scheme interests 
outstanding, would exceed 15% of the Company’s then outstanding issued 
capital.

NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REMUNERATION 

Non-executive Directors enter into service agreements through a letter of appointment which are not 
subject to a fixed term. Non-executive Director Remuneration will be market competitive and will not 
contain performance-based components. Non-executive Directors will receive fees (and statutory 
superannuation entitlements) commensurate with their role. 

All Non-executive Directors received a pre-IPO equity interest in Oliver’s in part as compensation for 
the significant time commitment expended by them in the pre-IPO period and to ensure levels of 
compensation were awarded commensurate with their skills. Full details of these interests are included 
in the remuneration tables at the end of this Report. A minimum shareholding policy guideline has 
been adopted to further assist in aligning Non-executive Director’s interests with all Shareholders.  The 
shareholding level of directors is detailed in the tables later in this Report.

24

25

The total amount of fees paid to all Non-executive Directors for their services as Directors must not 
exceed in aggregate in any financial year the amount fixed by Oliver’s in general meeting. This amount 
has been fixed at $500,000 per annum. 

For FY17 and FY18, the annual base Non-executive Director fees currently agreed to be paid by Oliver’s 
is $120,000 to the Chairperson (including all committee fees), $60,000 for each other Non-executive 
Director and an additional $20,000 to the respective chairs and $10,000 for other members of the 
Audit and Risk Committee and the RNC. These amounts comprise fees to be paid in cash and are 
inclusive of any superannuation payments required to be made.  The CEO is not remunerated separately 
for acting as a Director.

Based on the fees to be paid in FY18, the full year of Non-executive Director fees will be $350,000 
which is 70% of the total fee pool approved and disclosed in the Prospectus of $500,000.   

The total amount of fees paid in FY17 is shown in the remuneration tables at the end of this Report.

Non-executive Directors do not receive fees that are contingent on performance, shares in return for 
their services, retirements benefits, other than statutory superannuation or termination benefits.  

There is no intent to seek to increase the Non-executive Director fee pool at the 2017 AGM and there 
were no increases to Non-executive Directors’ fees since listing on the ASX on 21 June 2017. 

Special arrangements for FY17

In addition to ongoing Director’s fees, Mr Diddams was paid $50,000 for his advisory services in 
connection with the IPO, including chairing the Due Diligence Committee established for the Offer.

Each Non-Executive Director was offered and accepted ‘pre-IPO’ Options which were subject to 
Oliver’s listing on ASX before 31 December 2017 and subject to the Director remaining employed as 
a Non- Executive Director for the predetermined service period following the IPO which is vesting of 
50% 12 months after IPO (vest on 21 June 2018) and the remainder vest on 21 June 2019 (subject to the 
Director remaining a Director at that date).

Details of the pre-IPO Options granted are included in the remuneration tables at the end of the Report.

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LTD ABN: 33 166 495 441 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO 
THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Oliver’s Real Food Ltd and 
Controlled Entities (the “consolidated group” or “group”).  The separate financial statements of the 
parent entity, Oliver’s Real Food Limited have not been presented within this financial report as 
permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 21 September 2017 by the directors of the 
company.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards 
Board. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting 
Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements 
are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise. These financial 
statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’).

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.

(a)  Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the 
Oliver’s Real Food Ltd) and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries 
are entities the Parent controls. The Parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights 
to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns 
through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 12.

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial 
statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The 
consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Inter-company 
transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities 
are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and 
adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by 
the Group.

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as 
“non-controlling interests”. The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present 
ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net 
assets on liquidation at either fair value or the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the 
subsidiary’s net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed 
their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling 
interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and 
statement of comprehensive income. 

(b)  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 

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORTbe accounted for from the date that control is obtained, 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, other than those associated 
with the issue of a financial instrument, 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. 

Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer 
retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets 
or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts 
and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The measurement period ends on either 
the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the 
information possible to determine fair value.

(c)  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 (determined under either the full goodwill or proportionate interest 
method); and
(iii) the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest;

over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired.

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. 

If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets 
exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in 
the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if 
any), so the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain

Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of 
impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s operating segments expected 
to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Operating segments, to which goodwill, has 
been allocated are tested for impairment annually or more frequently when there is an indication 
that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the operating segments is less than 
its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any 
goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit on a pro-rata basis of the 
carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not 
reversed in a subsequent period. On disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of goodwill 
is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal. 

34

35

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and 
intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an 
impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in 
order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). 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. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of 
allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units. 
Otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable 
and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing 
value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax 
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks 
specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its 
carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its 
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-
generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount. Hence the 
increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been 
determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in 
prior financial years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 

(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 for the 
current period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are measured at the amounts expected to be paid 
to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been 
enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

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 or arising from a business 
combination.

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. When an investment property that is depreciable 
is held by the entity in a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the 
economic benefits embodied in the property through use over time (rather than through sale), 
the related deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset is measured on the basis that the carrying 
amount of such property will be recovered entirely through use.

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 

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORTof the deferred tax asset can be utilised.

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, 
and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the 
reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will 
occur in the foreseeable future.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it 
is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset 
and liability will occur.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where: (i) a legally enforceable 
right of set-off exists; and (ii) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by 
the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where 
it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective 
asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or 
liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

(e)  Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-
recurring basis, depending on the requirements of the applicable accounting standard. 

Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a 
liability in an orderly (i.e. unforced) transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing 
market participants at the measurement date. 

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing 
information is used to determine fair value.  Adjustments to market values may be made having 
regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability.  The fair values of assets and liabilities 
that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. 
These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data.

To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the 
asset or liability (i.e. the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or 
liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous market available to the entity 
at the end of the reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the 
asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction 
costs and transport costs).

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s 
ability to use the asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that 
would use the asset in its highest and best use. 

The fair value of liabilities and the entity’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to 
share-based payment arrangements) may be valued, where there is no observable market price in 
relation to the transfer of such financial instruments, by reference to observable market information 
where such instruments are held as assets.  Where this information is not available, other valuation 
techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective note to the financial 
statements.

(f) 

Inventories

Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net 
realisable value on a ‘first in first out’ basis. Cost comprises of direct materials and delivery costs, 
direct labour, import duties and other taxes, an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed 
overhead expenditure based on normal operating capacity, and, where applicable, transfers from 
cash flow hedging reserves in equity. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting 
rebates and discounts received or receivable.

Stock in transit is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises of purchase 

36

37

and delivery costs, net of rebates and discounts received or receivable.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the 
estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale

(g)  Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where 
applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Property
Land and buildings are shown at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. 
Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. 
Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, 
plant and equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows:

Class of fixed Asset

Buildings

Leasehold improvements

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment under lease

Depreciation Rate

40 years

3-15 years

3-7 years

2-5 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of 
each reporting period.

Leasehold improvements and plant and equipment under lease are depreciated over the 
unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no 
future economic benefit to the consolidated entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount 
and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to 
the item disposed of is transferred directly to retained profits.

(h)  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.

Operating lease payments, net of any incentives received from the lessor, are charged to profit or 
loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORT 
 
 
(i) 

Impairment of Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to 
amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in 
circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other non-financial assets are reviewed for 
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may 
not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying 
amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. 
The value-in-use is the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using 
a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 
Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a cash-generating 
unit.

(j) 

Intangible Assets Other than Goodwill

Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially 
measured at their fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are 
initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and are subsequently 
measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at 
cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising 
from the de-recognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal 
proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life 
intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful 
life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period.

Patents and trademarks
Significant costs associated with patents and trademarks are deferred and amortised on a straight-
line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being their finite life of 5 years.

Brands & IP
Brands & IP are not amortised. Instead, brands are tested annually for impairment, or more 
frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried 
at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on Brands and IP are taken to profit 
or loss and are not subsequently reversed.

As both the Brands & IP are an important element for the Oliver’s business, i.e. they are crucial for 
the operation of the Oliver’s business, the Directors are of the opinion that both Brands and IP have 
an indefinite life.

Software
Significant costs associated with software are deferred and amortised on a straight-line basis over 
the period of their expected benefit, being their finite life of 5 years.

Customer contracts
Customer contracts acquired in a business combination are amortised on a straight-line basis over 
the period of their expected benefit, being their finite life of 10 years.

(k)  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.

38

 
 
 
 
 
39

(l)  Employee Benefits

Short-term employee benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s obligation for short-term employee benefits.  Short-term 
employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled 
wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees 
render the related service, including wages and salaries.  Short-term employee benefits are 
measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled.

The Group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages and salaries are 
recognised as part of current trade and other payables in the statement of financial position. 
The Group’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long service leave entitlements are 
recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position

Other long-term employee benefits
Provision is made for employees’ long service leave and annual leave entitlements not expected 
to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the 
employees render the related service.  Other long-term employee benefits are measured at the 
present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. 

Expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, durations of 
service and employee departures and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market 
yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have maturity dates that 
approximate the terms of the obligations.  Any remeasurements for changes in assumptions of 
obligations for other long-term employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in 
which the changes occur.  

The Group’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as non-current provisions 
in its statement of financial position, except where the Group does not have an unconditional right 
to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period, in which case the 
obligations are presented as current provisions.  

Equity-settled compensation
The Group operates an employee share and option plan. Share-based payments to employees 
are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortised over the vesting periods.  
Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services 
received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of 
the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or 
services are received.  The corresponding amount is recorded to the option reserve.  The fair 
value of options is determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model.  The number of shares and 
options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that 
the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted is 
based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

(m)  Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present (legal or constructive) 
obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable the consolidated entity will be required to 
settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The 
amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle 
the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties 
surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a 
current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage 
of time is recognised as a finance cost.

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORT 
 
 
(n)  Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits available on demand with banks, other 
short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank 
overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are reported within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of 
financial position.

(o)  Revenue and Other Income

Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the consolidated 
entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the 
consideration received or receivable.

Sale of goods 
Sale of goods revenue is recognised at the point of sale, which is where the customer has taken 
delivery of the goods, the risks and rewards are transferred to the customer and there is a valid 
sales contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of sales returns and trade discounts.

Franchise fee revenue 
Revenue from franchise operations includes initial franchise, documentation and training fees 
generated from sales of franchises to franchisees. These are recognised directly in the accounting 
period in which the franchise is sold. 

Ongoing franchise fees consist of franchise fees and royalty fees. These ongoing fees are 
recognised in the accounting period in which they are generated.

Interest 
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a 
method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income 
over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts 
estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying 
amount of the financial asset.

Other revenue 
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is 
established.

(p)  Trade and Other Receivables

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised 
cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are 
generally due for settlement within 30 days.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be 
uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment 
of trade receivables is raised when there is objective evidence that the consolidated entity 
will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 
Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or 
financial reorganisation and default or delinquency in payments (more than 60 days overdue) are 
considered indicators that the trade receivable may be impaired. The amount of the impairment 
allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of 
estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating 
to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment.

(q)  Trade and Other Payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity 
prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are 
measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually 
paid within 30 days of recognition.

(r)  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.

(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 retrospectively applies an accounting policy, makes a retrospective restatement 
or reclassifies items in its financial statements, an additional (third) statement of financial position 
as at the beginning of the preceding period in addition to the minimum comparative financial 
statement is presented.

(u)  Rounding of Amounts

The parent entity has applied the relief available to it under ASIC Corporations (Rounding 
in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191. Accordingly, amounts in the financial 
statements have been rounded to the nearest dollar.

(v)  Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The directors evaluate estimates and judgements 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.

(i) Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets

The consolidated entity assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and 
other indefinite life intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to 
the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment 
trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves fair value less 
costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and 
assumptions.

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORT(ii) Provision for impairment of receivables

The provision for impairment of receivables 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 receivables, historical collection rates and specific knowledge of the individual 
debtor’s financial position.

(iii) Provision for impairment of inventories

The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and 
judgement. The level of the provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales 
experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that affect inventory obsolescence.

(iv) Estimation of useful lives of assets

The consolidated entity determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and 
amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and finite 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 lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold 
will be written off or written down.

(v) Business combinations

As discussed above, business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The 
fair value of assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed are initially estimated by 
the consolidated entity taking into consideration all available information at the reporting date. 
Fair value adjustments on the finalisation of the business combination accounting is retrospective, 
where applicable, to the period the combination occurred and may have an impact on the assets 
and liabilities, depreciation and amortisation reported.

(vi) 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. The recoverable 
amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based 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.

(vii) 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 amounts will be available to utilise those 
temporary differences and losses.

(viii) Employee benefits provision

As discussed above, the liability for employee benefits expected to be settled more than 12 
months from the reporting date are 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.

(ix) Lease make good provision

A provision has been made for the present value of anticipated costs for future restoration of 
leased premises. The provision includes future cost estimates associated with closure of the 
premises. The calculation of this provision requires assumptions such as application of closure 
dates and cost estimates. 

The provision recognised for each site is periodically reviewed and updated based on the 

42

43

facts and circumstances available at the time. Changes to the estimated future costs for sites 
are recognised in the statement of financial position by adjusting the asset and the provision. 
Reductions in the provision that exceed the carrying amount of the asset will be recognised in 
profit or loss.

(w)  New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods 

Accounting Standards issued by the AASB that are not yet mandatorily applicable to the Group, 
together with an assessment of the potential impact of such pronouncements on the Group when 
adopted in future periods, are discussed below:

 → AASB 9: Financial Instruments and associated Amending Standards (applicable to annual 

reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018).

The Standard will be applicable retrospectively (subject to the provisions on hedge accounting 
outlined below) and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement 
of financial instruments, revised recognition and derecognition requirements for financial 
instruments and simplified requirements for hedge accounting.

The key changes that may affect the Group on initial application include certain simplifications 
to the classification of financial assets, simplifications to the accounting of embedded 
derivatives, upfront accounting for expected credit loss, and the irrevocable election to 
recognise gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading 
in other comprehensive income.  AASB 9 also introduces a new model for hedge accounting 
that will allow greater flexibility in the ability to hedge risk, particularly with respect to hedges 
of non-financial items. Should the entity elect to change its hedge policies in line with the new 
hedge accounting requirements of the Standard, the application of such accounting would be 
largely prospective.

Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 may have an impact on the 
Group’s financial instruments, including hedging activity, it is impracticable at this stage to 
provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

 → AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applicable to annual reporting periods 

beginning on or after 1 January deferred by AASB 2015-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting 
Standards - Effective Date of AASB 15).

When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to 
revenue with a single, principles-based model. Apart from a limited number of exceptions, 
including leases, the new revenue model in AASB 15 will apply to all contracts with customers 
as well as non-monetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate 
sales to customers and potential customers.  The core principle of the Standard is that an entity 
will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an 
amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange 
for the goods or services.  To achieve this objective, AASB 15 provides the following five-step 
process: 

 →   identify the contract(s) with a customer; 

 →   identify the performance obligations in the contract(s); 

 →   determine the transaction price; 

 →   allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and

 →  recognise revenue when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied. 

The transitional provisions of this Standard permit an entity to either: restate the contracts 
that existed in each prior period presented per AASB 108: Accounting Policies, Changes 
in Accounting Estimates and Errors (subject to certain practical expedients in AASB 15); or 
recognise the cumulative effect application to incomplete contracts on the date of initial 

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORT 
 
 
 
application. There are also enhanced disclosure requirements regarding revenue.

Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 15 may have an impact on the 
Group’s financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of 
such impact.

 → AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).

When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable 
to leases in AASB 117: Leases and related Interpretations. AASB 16 introduces a single lessee 
accounting model that eliminates the requirement for leases to be classified as operating or 
finance leases.

The main changes introduced by the new Standard are as follows:

 →  recognition of a right-of-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short-term leases with 

less than 12 months of tenure and leases relating to low-value assets);

 →  depreciation of right-of-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in 

profit or loss and unwinding of the liability in principal and interest components;

 →  inclusion of variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate in the initial 

measurement of the lease liability using the index or rate at the commencement date;

 →  application of a practical expedient to permit a lessee to elect not to separate non-lease 

components and instead account for all components as a lease; and

 →  inclusion of additional disclosure requirements.

The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lessee to either retrospectively apply the Standard 
to comparatives in line with AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect application as an 
adjustment to opening equity on the date of initial application.

Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 will impact the Group’s financial 
statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

Subsidiary financial statements used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements 
have also been prepared as at the same reporting date as the Group’s financial statements.

(b)  Acquisition of Controlled Entities  

On 1 December 2016, the company acquired all the equity issued by Revilo’s Pty Limited for total  
consideration of $455,416 (including 1,833,330 shares at $0.19 each). Revilo’s Pty Limited is the 
holding company of its wholly-owned subsidiaries: a) Coffs Harbour Franchise Pty Ltd which is the 
franchisee of the Oliver’s franchised store; and b) Slacks Creek Pty Ltd which is the franchisee of 
the Oliver’s Slacks Creek store.

(180,369)

(i)  The consideration paid to acquire Revilo’s Pty Ltd includes 1,833,333 ordinary shares at $0.19 
each issued to the vendors. The fair value of the shares has been determined based on the price of 
the shares at the date of acquisition prepared by an independent valuer.

(ii) The values identified in relation to the acquisition of Revilo’s are provisional as at 30 June 2017 
as the re-acquired rights intangible asset fair value has yet to be finalised.

For a further understanding of the provisional basis, refer to the business combination accounting 
policy which states the following:

Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer 
retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets 
or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts 
and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends on either 
the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the 
information possible to determine fair value.

(iii)  The Gain on Bargain Purchase arose due to the difference in the issue price  ($0.30 each) 
and the fair value ($0.19 each) for the scrip consideration (1,833,333 ordinary shares).  It has been 
included as income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income and will not be assessable for tax 
purposes.

(iv)  The acquired entities’ contribution of gross revenue ($0.64 million) and earnings before 
interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) loss ($0.02 million) for the period from 1 
December 2016 to 30 June 2017. There is not adequate information available for disclosing the 
contribution of gross revenue and EBITDA for the full year.

(c)  Transactions with Non-controlling interests in Retail Technology Services Pty Ltd

On 1 May 2017, the company acquired the remaining 24% of the outstanding shares in Retail 
Technology Services Pty Ltd for a share consideration at a fair value of $103,625 (i.e. 500,000 
ordinary shares at $0.20725 each). This brings the Parent entity interest in Retail Technology 
Services Pty Ltd to 100%.

Intangible assets, other than goodwill, Brands and IP, 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, Brands and IP have an indefinite useful life and are not amortised.

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 using an estimated growth rate. 

The following key assumptions were used in the value-in-use calculations:

NSW segment

VIC segment

Upcoming store segment

Red Dragon

Growth Rate

Discount Rate

1.25%

7.15%

3.00%

10.27%

15.64%

15.64%

15.64%

15.64%

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.

Sensitivity

As disclosed in note 1, the directors have made judgements and estimates in respect of impairment 
testing of goodwill, brands and IP. Should these judgements and estimates not occur the resulting 
goodwill carrying amount may decrease. The sensitivities are as follows: 

Goodwill would need to be impaired if the following key assumptions are increased / (decreased), with 
all other assumptions remaining constant:

NSW segment

VIC segment

Upcoming store segment

Red Dragon

Growth Rate

Discount Rate

(10.0%)

(7.1%)

(31.8%)

(28.4%)

40.1%

31.6%

70.1%

39.4%

Management believes that other reasonable changes in the key assumptions on which the recoverable 
amount of each cash generating unit’s goodwill is based would not cause the cash-generating unit’s 
carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.

58

59

NOTE 14: INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CONTINUED)

If there are any negative changes in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount of goodwill. 
is based, this would result in a further impairment charge for the cash generating unit’s goodwill.

(a)  Buy-back of franchised stores

During the year, the Group bought back an additional six franchised stores.  It did not acquire 
equity in the companies and only acquired the assets in trade of the former franchised stores and

The above goodwill requires additional allocation of the intangible assets with respect to re-acquired 
rights.   The valuation exercise for Property, plant & equipment and re-acquired rights is still in progress 
and as such the above purchase price allocation is preliminary only. and will be finalised within 12 
months from acquisition.

For a further understanding of the provisional basis, refer to the business combination accounting policy 
which states the following:

Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively 
adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during 
the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that 
existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from 
the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information possible to determine 
fair value.

The goodwill is attributable to the sales revenue of the acquired business, the synergies expected to 
arise from the acquisition and strengthens the growth platform of the Group.  The goodwill will not be 
deductible for tax purposes.

The acquired former franchised stores’ contribution of gross revenue  of $2.29 million and EBITDA  
of $0.28 million for the period from the date of acquisition to 30 June 2017. There is not adequate 
information available for disclosing the contribution of gross revenue and EBITDA for the full year.

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.

Provision for Make Good

A provision has been made for the present value of anticipated costs for future restoration of leased 
premises. Refer to Note 1 (v) (ix) for further details.

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency 
risk, price risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management 
program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse 
effects on the financial performance of the consolidated entity.  

Risk management is carried out by senior finance executives (‘finance’) under policies approved by the 
Board of Directors (‘the Board’). These policies include identification and analysis of the risk exposure 
of the consolidated entity and appropriate procedures, controls and risk limits. Finance identifies and 
evaluates financial risks within the consolidated entity’s operating units. Finance reports to the Board on 
a monthly basis. 

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, foreign currency risk and other price risk (commodity and 
equity price 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.

NOTE 29: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

(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 refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting 
in financial loss to the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity has a strict code of credit, 
including obtaining agency credit information, confirming references and setting appropriate 
credit limits. The consolidated entity obtains guarantees where appropriate to mitigate credit 
risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets 
is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the 
statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. The consolidated entity does 
not hold any collateral.

(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. Vigilant liquidity risk 
management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and 
cash equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they 
become due and payable.

The table below reflects an undiscounted contractual maturity analysis for financial liabilities. 

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.

Interest rate risk

i. 
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. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on 
floating rate instruments.  The financial instruments that primarily expose the Group to interest rate 
risk are borrowings, and cash and cash equivalents.

The consolidated entity’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings 
obtained at variable rates expose the consolidated entity to interest rate risk. Borrowings 
obtained at fixed rates expose the consolidated entity to fair value risk. The policy is to maintain 
approximately 60% of current borrowings at fixed rates using interest rate swaps to achieve this 
when necessary.

ii.  Foreign currency risk
Exposure to foreign currency risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial 
instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the 
Group holds financial instruments which are other than the AUD functional currency of the Group.

The consolidated entity is not exposed to any significant foreign currency risk.

iii.  Other price risk
Other price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument 
will fluctuate because of changes in market prices largely due to demand and supply factors (other 
than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign currency risk) for commodities.

The consolidated entity is not exposed to any significant price risk.

Fair Values

Fair value estimation

Unless otherwise stated, the carrying amounts of financial instruments reflect their fair value.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
To the Members of Oliver’s Real Food Limited 

Opinion  

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

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

i) 

ii) 

giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its financial 
performance for the year then ended; and 
complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

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

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

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

Key Audit Matters 

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

OLIVER’S REAL FOOD LIMITED2017 ANNUAL REPORT 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Key Audit Matter 

How our audit addressed this matter 

Business combinations 
Refer to Notes 12 and 14 in the financial statements 

The  group  has  undertaken  several  business 
combinations  related  to  the  acquisition  of  retail 
stores during the year.  These are considered to 
be  a  key  audit  matter  due  to  the  size  of  the 
transaction,  the  complexity  of  applying  AASB  3 
Business  Combinations,  and  the  exercise  of 
management judgment involved.   

As  a  result  of 
the  business  combinations, 
$5,168,164  of  additional  goodwill  has  been 
recognised  during  the  year.    As  permitted  by 
AASB 3, and detailed in Notes 12 and 14, several 
business combinations have been accounted for 
provisionally, with the final acquisition accounting 
to be determined in the following year. 

The  business  combinations  involved  significant 
judgments.  These included the determination of 
the  fair  value  of  consideration  paid,  and  the 
the 
assets  and 
identifiable 
identification  of  any  separately 
intangible assets. 

liabilities  acquired,  and 

Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets 
Refer to Note 14 in the financial statements 

The Group has goodwill of $6.7m as a result of its 
various acquisitions.   Goodwill is not  amortised, 
and is subject to an annual impairment test, which 
is based on a discounted cash flow model. 

The  Group’s  assessment  of 
impairment  of 
goodwill and intangible assets is considered to be 
a  key  audit  matter  as  a  result  of  the  significant 
judgment  involved  in  performing  the  impairment 
test.  These included: 
 

the 
the  group’s  cash 
generating units (“CGUs”), and the allocation 
of goodwill between them; 

identification  of 

  estimates concerning the forecast future cash 
flows associated with the CGUs to which the 
goodwill is allocated; and 

  determining  the  appropriate  discount  rates 
and the growth rate of revenue  and costs to 
be  applied  in  determining  the  recoverable 
amount for each CGU. 

84

Our audit procedures in relation to the acquisitions were 
as follows:  
  we  have  obtained 

relevant  purchase 
the 
agreements, and have ensured that the acquisitions 
have  been  accounted  for  in  accordance  with  the 
requirements of AASB 3 Business Combinations; 
  where management has relied on external experts to 
determine  the  fair  value  of  assets  and  liabilities 
acquired, we have assessed their competency and 
objectivity, and the appropriateness of the valuation 
methodology and assumptions used;  

  assessing  management’s  determination  of  the  fair 

value of consideration paid; and 

  assessing 

the  appropriateness  of 

the  Group’s 

disclosures in respect of the acquisitions.  

Our  audit  procedures  in  relation  to  management’s 
impairment assessment included: 

  assessing  management’s  identification  of  CGUs, 
and  its  allocation  of  the  goodwill  between  them, 
based on the nature of the Group’s business and the 
manner in which results are monitored and reported; 

  assessing the valuation methodology used, and the 
mechanics  of  the  impairment  model  prepared  by 
management; 
challenging 
the  key  assumptions  used  by 
management in the impairment models including the 
cash flow projections for revenue and expenses, and 
growth rates, our understanding of the business; 

 

to  assess 

  using  our  valuation  specialists 

the 
appropriateness of the discount rate used, based on 
market rates, and the Group cost of capital; and 
  we  have  also  assessed  the  adequacy  of  the 
disclosures included within the financial statements 
for impairment testing, including the assumptions to 
which  the  outcome  of  the  impairment  test  is  most 
sensitive, being those that have the most significant 
effect  on  the  determination  of  the  recoverable 
amount of goodwill. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
85

Share-based payment charges 
Refer to Note 26 in the financial statements 

The Group has issued share options to directors 
during  the  year.    These  were  equity-settled 
options, which management valued using a Black 
Scholes model. 

Share-based  payments  may  be  a  complex 
accounting area and was considered a key audit 
matter due to the risk that amounts are incorrectly 
recognised and/or appropriately disclosed in the 
financial statements. 

We  made  inquiries  of  the  directors  to  understand  the 
share-based payment schemes established in the year.  
For  equity  settled  options  we  used  our  own  specialist 
valuation knowledge to challenge the key assumptions 
used in determining the fair value of the share options at 
grant  date,  being  the  estimated  future  share  price 
volatility, and the number of options expected to vest. 

We  recalculated  the  estimated  charge  which  reflected 
the best estimate of the number of options to vest. 

We considered the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures 
in  respect  of  the  judgments  taken  in  the  valuation 
models. 

Other Information  

The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the information included 
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial report and the 
auditor's report thereon.  

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

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

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

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

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

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

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

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