Executive Chairman’s Report
As Executive Chairman of PPK Group Limited it is with great disappointment I present my second
Annual Report to Shareholders and other stakeholders given the depressed trading conditions in the
mining sector, and particularly the coal mining sector, in the year under review. While subsequently
there has been some encouraging signs, picking any recovery in this industry is extremely difficult.
While the board is committed to transforming the size, scope and profitability of PPK, it is equally intent
on expanding the company in an ordered manner through maintaining a prudent and relatively
conservative approach to debt and capital management.
With the current challenges in our Mining business, this strategy is more important than ever.
As such the potential capital cost of all future planned acquisitions will be carefully evaluated to ensure
that they can be primarily funded internally, and that when required, additional funding via external debt
or share issues, will not overly negatively impact on PPK’s balance sheet or shareholder value.
Given the date of release of this 2015 Annual Report, it is recommended shareholders take time to
review the 2016 Annual Report and 2017 half year report, which are due for release on or before 30
June 2017.
2015 FINANCIAL YEAR IN REVIEW
PPK’s strategy, as articulated in market releases from late calendar 2013 onwards, is predicated on
creating longer-term assets which will generate consistent, increasing revenue streams and
demonstrate significant growth in asset value as the mining equipment and technology cycle rebounds
and strengthens. Thus PPK will be well placed to financially benefit from any future mining market
upswings in Australia and overseas. While considerable progress was made against this strategy in
the year in review, the continued challenging market conditions in the mining sector, and in particular
the coal mining sector, have been well documented. A number of Australian coal mines are currently
operating in “care and maintenance” mode, while operating mines are experiencing both capital and
operational expense constraints. This environment impacts PPK via limited sales of capital equipment,
and an extremely competitive maintenance, service and rental/lease market resulting in varying
degrees of margin suppression across PPK’s mining equipment products and services range. PPK’s
mining businesses recorded a disappointing loss in the year in review.
While PPK remains committed to this strategy, recognising the cumulative effect of continued
challenging market conditions for the mining services sector, the company has recognised a series of
impairments and provisions totalling $13.670M as outlined under the financial results section.
By contrast, PPK was pleased to report a number of successful outcomes from its Property division,
including the successful sale of the PPK Easy Living retirement villages and the Arndell Park and
Dandenong South properties.

Your Board declared an interim dividend of 1.5 cents fully franked per share. A final dividend has not
been declared.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
The loss after tax of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2015 amounted to $11.822M (2014: Profit
of $2.951M). Included in the year end results was a series of impairments, provisions and business
restructuring costs totalling $13.670M. These comprised impairments to intangibles ($7.696M), plant &
equipment ($0.489M), inventories ($2.191M) and financial assets ($0.556M), together with onerous
lease provision ($2.000M), and redundancy and relocation costs ($0.738M) associated with the closure
of PPK’s Nowra facility.
Group revenue for the 12 months from mining equipment sales and mining services was $29.577M
(FY2014 $12.568M), while revenues from investment properties, investment activities and interest
received collectively was $3.390M (FY2014 $6.776M).
OPERATIONS
Highlights
Major operational highlights during the year under review were:
• The inaugural sale and export of one of PPK’s market leading COALTRAM underground flameproof
and explosion proof vehicles into China;
• The acquisition of the Firefly business and subsequent merger of it and Rambor to create a
comprehensive suite of market leading air powered mobile products and associated services;
• Completing acquisition of the MONEx Electronic Engine Management System technology;
• Material progress on the COALTRAM engine management system upgrade project, with the first
upgrade package due to market at the end of calendar 2015; and
• Completing a series of milestones at the Kiah Willoughby development, as well as the sales of the
PPK Easy Living retirement villages and Arndell Park and Dandenong South properties.
PPK Mining Equipment Businesses
Like many companies servicing the sector, PPK’s mining equipment businesses have been materially
impacted by the current market environment.
At the end of the financial year PPK’s mining equipment and technology businesses comprised:
• Manufacture, service, support, and hire of the class leading COALTRAM underground transport
utility vehicle;
• Manufacture and distribution of the global market leading flameproof alternator for use in methane
gas prone underground mines;
• Design, manufacture and overhaul of Exlec hazardous area electrical equipment and
• Manufacture, service, support and hire of Rambor and Firefly mining equipment.
2
COALTRAM
In the year in review, PPK completed the delivery of two COALTRAM’s to South 32 and the sale and
delivery of one COALTRAM to a customer in China. While PPK was delighted to provide these
machines to our customers, PPK understands that these were the only load-haul-dump machines sold
into the Australian underground coal industry in the year in review, and the restricted capital
environment has resulted in the volume of COALTRAM sales being far lower than anticipated.
Mining Equipment Service Facilities
In June 2014 a new state-of-the-art service and support centre was commissioned at Port Kembla for
the service and support of COALTRAM and other diesel equipment. With around 40 of the
approximately 100 COALTRAM vehicles deployed in Australia currently utilised by South 32’s Illawarra
Coal at various mines in the Illawarra, there are clear logistical and economic advantages for this major
client to have a dedicated service centre on their doorstep. Pleasingly, the Port Kembla facility has
experienced excellent support from customers and is performing well. By contrast, PPK’s flagship
Tomago facility, which primarily services the Hunter region, has been particularly impacted by reduced
customer activity and the competitive environment. Commensurate with business improvement plans
for PPK in the Hunter region saw the appointment of a new Tomago Branch Manager in July 2015.
COALTRAM Hire / Leasing
Included with the acquisition of the COALTRAM business in March 2014 was a fleet of twelve
COALTRAMs which are hired or leased to customers. Seven of these machines are themselves leased
from an industry finance provider under long term lease contracts that expire in 2019/20. Through a
combination of reduced demand and a very competitive short term hire environment, the revenues that
PPK is able to achieve on these machines is considerably lower than the lease payments that PPK
must make. Accordingly, PPK has determined that this situation represents an onerous lease
arrangement, and has recognised a charge of $2.000M in the year in review to reflect this.
MONEx Electronic Engine Management System
In August 2014, PPK completed the acquisition of the intellectual property, manufacturing lines and
certain inventory of the MONex Electronic Management System (EMS). The MONex EMS is an integral
part of the COALTRAM LHD machine.
EXLEC Hazardous Area Electrical Equipment
In October 2014, PPK completed the acquisition of the Exlec business. Exlec provides and services
electrical equipment for hazardous areas, with particular focus on underground coal. Exlec’s products
complement the COALTRAM (for example, hazardous area lights and flame proof enclosures).
Firefly & Rambor
In December 2014, PPK completed the acquisition of the Firefly business. Operating from a base at
Mt Thorley, Firefly sells, services and hires a range of mobile pneumatic (air) powered products for the
3
mining industry. The Firefly business compliments PPK’s existing Rambor pneumatic products
business. Post-acquisition, PPK consolidated Rambor’s operations at Nowra into both the Firefly Mt
Thorley facility and PPK’s Port Kembla centre. This process was completed in early FY16, immediately
after which the Nowra facility was closed, generating considerable cost savings across the combined
businesses.
BUILDING A CHINESE MARKET PRESENCE
While the coal sector in China has undergone a well-documented contraction over the past few years,
the board and senior management remain convinced that the Chinese market for PPK’s products,
technologies and ‘know-how’ is vast. In addition, the opportunity to partner with China based suppliers
to provide quality mining consumables and certain capital equipment into Australia is also considerable.
In the year in review, PPK established its Chinese entity and opened a small office in Beijing. In
addition, PPK signed an exclusive Australia and New Zealand distribution agreement with CCTEG.
Under this agreement, PPK is trialling CCTEG drilling consumables into Australian mines. Finally, as
stated, PPK sold its first COALTRAM into China.
PROPERTY
Industrial Property
Just prior to the end of FY2014, PPK announced the sale of the Arndell Park industrial property for a
consideration of $12.420M. The sale completed in October 2014.
In April 2015, PPK announced the sale of the Dandenong South industrial property for a consideration
of $12.350M. This sale completed in June 2015.
At 30 June 2015, PPK’s remaining industrial property at Seven Hills remains fully tenanted.
Retirement Villages
In September 2014, PPK sold its interest in the Easy Living Unit Trust and Easy Living Bundaberg Unit
Trust, with a net gain on disposal of $1.894M recognised. Prior to disposal, PPK held a 50% interest in
each trust and consolidated the financial statements of the trusts as part of the PPK Group. The trusts
held two retirement village assets in Elizabeth Vale and Bundaberg, respectively.
Property Development
PPK continues to hold an 18.2% interest in the Kiah Willoughby residential development which is
scheduled to be completed within FY2017. By completion the project is expected to distribute
approximately a further $5.000M to PPK as repayment of loans, accumulated interest and profits.
PPK also has an 18.75% stake in the Nerang Street Southport Project Trust (Trust), which owns an
11,000 square metre development site at Southport, on the Gold Coast. The Trust is currently marketing
this site for sale to capitalise on the strengthening Gold Coast property market.
4
The proceeds from realisations mentioned above, along with those arising in the future, will be used to
fund a combination of debt reduction, working capital requirements, new business acquisitions, select
further property investments and capital management strategies.
Financial Investments
As at 30 June 2015, PPK has one remaining short term mortgage secured loan totalling $0.400M and
the book value of PPK’s share investment portfolio is approximately $3.500M.
OUTLOOK
Whilst the mining and general business environment remains challenging, the PPK focus continues to
be:
Our Customers
a) Support our current and seek new underground coal mining customers through the sales,
service, provision of parts and leasing of our market leading Coaltram, Rambor and Firefly
product lines, both domestically and internationally.
b) Utilise our significant industry experience, connections and supply chain to provide high quality
low cost mining and drilling consumables and underground diesel parts, thus assisting our
customers in lowering their ongoing operational costs.
Our Products
c) Continue to be one of the few Australian original equipment makers (OEMs) incrementally
investing in the continual development of their products.
d) Partner internationally for the sale of current products and new technologies to international
markets.
Our Business
e) Recognising the well documented economic challenges in the underground coal mining
industry, which we serve, leverage our resources and particularly our Board’s considerable
experience to diversify our revenue streams through investment in appropriate attractive
property and financial investments.
f) Continue to manage the company as leanly and efficiently as possible.
Your Board has determined that PPK should, for the sake of diversity, adopt a two-pronged approach
of executing on the mining strategy as articulated, and now continue to leverage its experience in both
property and other attractive financial asset or investment opportunities in order to supplement PPK
Groups earnings and Balance Sheet.
Finally, while it is the Board’s policy that wherever possible, and taking into account the financial position
of the company, it will pay regular interim and final dividends each year, the disappointing result for the
5
year in review and continued difficult global trading conditions has resulted in the Board electing not to
pay a final dividend. Based on the current trading performance and the continued focus on strong
capital management, the company does not anticipate paying an interim dividend for the current
financial year. Dividends in FY16 and beyond will be subject to financial performance.

11
REMUNERATION REPORT (audited)
The Directors of PPK present the Remuneration Report for non-executive directors, executive directors and other
key management personnel, prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the Corporations
Regulations 2001.
Remuneration Policy
The remuneration policy of the Company has been designed to align director and executive objectives with
shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific short-
term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the consolidated entity’s financial results.
The PPK Board believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract, retain and
motivate directors and executives of high quality and standard to manage the affairs of the consolidated entity, as
well as, create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.
The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for directors, executives and management was
developed by the Board. The policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members
and senior executives of the consolidated entity is detailed in the paragraphs which follow.
Remuneration of non-executive directors is determined by the Board from the maximum amount available for
distribution to the non-executive directors as approved by shareholders. Currently this amount is set at $275,000
per annum in aggregate as approved by shareholders at the 2003 Annual General Meeting.
In determining the appropriate level of directors’ fees, data from surveys undertaken of other public companies
similar in size or market section to the Company is taken into account.
Non-executive directors are remunerated by means of cash benefits. They are not entitled to participate in
performance based remuneration practices unless approved by shareholders. The Company will not generally
use options as a means of remuneration for non-executive directors and will continue to remunerate those
directors by means of cash benefits.
PPK does not provide retirement benefits for its non-executive directors. Executive directors do not receive
director’s fees.
The Board of Directors is responsible for approving remuneration policies and packages applicable to senior
executives of the Company. The broad remuneration policy is to ensure that the remuneration package properly
reflects the person’s duties and responsibilities and that the remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining
and motivating people of high quality and standard.
A review of the compensation arrangements for executive directors and senior executives is conducted by the full
Board at a duly constituted Directors’ meeting.
The Board conducts its review annually based on established criteria which includes:
the individual’s performance;
reference to market data for broadly comparable positions or skill sets in similar organisations or
industry;
the performance of the Company or consolidated entity during the relevant period; and
the broad remuneration policy of the consolidated entity.
Senior executives and executive directors may receive bonuses based on the achievement of specific goals of the
consolidated entity.
Company Performance, Shareholder Wealth and Directors and Executives Remuneration
The Remuneration Policy has been designed to achieve the goal congruence between shareholders, directors
and executives.
The two methods employed in achieving this aim are:
a performance based bonus for executives based on key performance indicators (KPI’s) which include a
combination of short-term financial and non-financial indicators; and/or
the issue of shares or options to executives as a means of long-term incentive to encourage the alignment
of personal and shareholder interests.
12
REMUNERATION REPORT (audited) (cont.)
Shares or Options
No shares or options were issued to executives in the current financial year.
PPK Group Ltd has a share and loan plan in place with certain key executives. During the 2014 year, they were
issued with 15,500,000 shares in the Group at an issue price of 70c per share.
The Group provided the executives with a non-recourse loan to pay for the shares, which expires 27 April 2017.
The terms of the non-recourse loan provide no obligation on the senior executive to repay the full amount of the
outstanding loan balance and the Group has the option to sell or buy-back the plan shares as full satisfaction of
the outstanding loan balance. Each share held in the share and loan plan is entitled to dividends declared on
ordinary shares. These dividends are not paid in cash to the executives. Instead they are credited against their
respective share loans and reduce the amounts of interest and/or principle outstanding to the Group.
The plan is treated as an option for accounting purposes and a one-off share based payment was recognised
during the 2014 financial year for these share plans. There are no further share based payments expected to
arise from this plan. The repayment of loans by way of dividend or cash repayment is treated as an increase to
issued capital for accounting purposes, which during the current financial year was $542,500 (2014: $232,500).
The Board considers that the existing remuneration arrangements regarding executives are appropriate in the
Company’s prevailing circumstances to achieve the desired objectives of its Remuneration Policy.
These policy measures are chosen as they directly align the individual’s reward to the KPI’s of the consolidated
entity and to its strategy and performance.
The Company considers this policy is an effective means of maintaining shareholder wealth and in retaining
quality employees committed to the long term objectives of the Company.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
NOTE 1
CORPORATE INFORMATION
The financial statements of PPK Group Limited (“PPK” or “the Group”)
for the year ended 30 June 2015 were authorised for issue in
accordance with a resolution of the directors on 13th June 2017 and
covers PPK Group Limited and its controlled entities as required by
the Corporation Act 2001.
PPK is a for-profit company limited by shares, incorporated in
Australia. Its shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities
Exchange.
Separate financial statements for PPK Group Limited as an individual
entity are no longer presented as a consequence of a change to the
Corporations Act 2001, however, limited financial information for PPK
Group Limited is provided as an individual entity in note 9.
The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are
described in the Directors’ Report.
NOTE 2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Preparation and Statement of Compliance
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements
which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian
Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
issued by The
The financial statements also comply with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) as
International
Accounting Standards Board. PPK Group Limited is a for-profit entity.
The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis
and are based on historical costs, except for available-for-sale
financial assets and derivatives which have been measured at fair
value, and land and buildings, plant and equipment and intangible
assets where impairment has been recognised when the fair value of
the asset is less than the historical cost.
Non-current assets and disposal groups held-for-sale are measured
at the lower of carrying amounts and fair value less costs to sell.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same
reporting period as the parent, using consistent accounting policies.
The Parent Company, regardless of the nature of its involvement with
an entity (the investee), determines whether it is a parent by assessing
control. All intercompany balances and transactions, including
unrealised profits arising from intergroup transactions have been
the
eliminated. Unrealised
transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset
transferred.
losses are also eliminated unless
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the
portion of a subsidiary's profit or loss and net assets that is not held
by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or
loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-
controlling interests based on their respective ownership interests.
Associates
Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence
but not control. Associates are accounted for in the consolidated
financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the
equity method the Group's share of the post-acquisition other
comprehensive income or loss of the associates is recognised in
consolidated profit or loss and the Group's share of the post-
acquisition movements in reserves of associates is recognised in
consolidated other comprehensive income. The cumulative post-
acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of
the investment. Dividends and distributions received from associates
reduce the carrying amount of the investment in the consolidated
financial statements.
When the Group's share of post-acquisition losses in an associate
exceeds its interest in the associate (including any unsecured
receivables), the Group does not recognise further losses unless it
has obligations to, or has made payments, on behalf of the associate.
The financial statements of the associate are used to apply the equity
method. The end of the reporting period of the associate and the
parent are identical and both use consistent accounting policies.
(c) Revenue and Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognised at the fair value of consideration received or
receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade
allowance and duties and
taxes paid. The following specific
recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
The accounting policies have been consistently applied to the entities
of the consolidated entity unless otherwise stated.
Sales of goods
The financial statements are presented in Australian currency.
(b) Basis of Consolidation
Subsidiaries
The financial statements consolidate those of the Parent Company
PPK Group Limited and all of its subsidiaries at 30 June each year.
The Parent Company, regardless of the nature of its involvement with
an entity (the investee), determines whether it is a parent by assessing
control.
This occurs when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from
its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those
returns.
Potential voting rights that are substantive, whether or not they are
exercisable or convertible, are considered when assessing control.
Consolidated financial statements include all subsidiaries from the
date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
Revenue from the sale of mining equipment is recognised when
significant risk and rewards of rewards of ownership have passed to
the buyer and can be reliable measured. Risks and rewards are
considered passed to the buyer when the goods have been delivered
to the customer.
Revenue from the sale of Coaltram vehicles or spare parts sales are
recognised when they leave the warehouse and risks and rewards of
ownership have passed.
Rental Income
Rental income on investment properties is accounted for on a straight-
line basis over the lease term. Contingent rentals are recognised as
income in the periods when they are earned.
29
NOTE 2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
Interest income
Revenue is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest rate
method. The effective interest method uses the effective interest rate
which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash
receipts over the expected life of the financial asset.
Asset sales
Gains and losses on sale of assets is recognised on a net basis. The
gain or loss on disposal of assets is brought to account at the date an
unconditional contract of sale is signed, or if a conditional contract is
signed, the date it becomes unconditional. In the case of real estate
sales under AASB 118 it becomes unconditional when title passes.
Dividends
Dividends are recognised when the Group's right to receive payment
is established.
(d) Inventories
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised for temporary
tax bases of
differences between
investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures
where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of
the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will
not reverse in the foreseeable future.
the carrying amount and
Current and deferred tax balances relating to amounts recognised
directly in other comprehensive income or equity are also recognised
directly in other comprehensive income or equity.
PPK Group Limited and its wholly owned Australian subsidiaries have
implemented the tax consolidation legislation for the whole of the
financial year. PPK Group Limited is the head entity in the tax
consolidated group. The separate taxpayer within a group approach
has been used to allocate current income tax expense and deferred
tax expense to wholly-owned subsidiaries that form part of the tax
consolidated group. PPK Group Limited has assumed all the current
tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax
losses for the tax consolidated group via intercompany receivables
and payables because a tax funding arrangement has been in place
for the whole of the financial year. The amounts receivable/payable
under tax funding arrangements are due upon notification by the head
entity. Interim funding notices may also be issued by the head entity
to its wholly-owned subsidiaries in order for the head entity to be able
to pay tax instalments.
Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods
(g) Investment Property & Property, Plant and Equipment
Investment Properties
Investment properties are initially measured at cost including
transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment
properties are carried at cost, less depreciation and any impairment
losses. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount
or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is
probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will
flow to the Group. Depreciation on investment properties is calculated
on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset of 50
years. Land is not depreciated.
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed and
adjusted, if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
Gains and losses on disposals are calculated as the difference
between the net disposal proceeds and the asset's carrying amount
and are included in the profit or loss statement in the year that the item
is derecognised.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are brought to account at cost less,
where applicable, any accumulated depreciation or amortisation and
impairment. The cost of fixed assets constructed within the Group
includes the cost of materials used in construction, direct labour and
an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and
capitalised leased assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated
over their useful lives to the consolidated entity commencing from the
time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are
amortised over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease
or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.
The gain or loss on disposal of all fixed assets is determined as the
difference between the carrying amount of the asset at the time of
disposal and the proceeds of disposal, and is included in the profit
before income tax of the consolidated entity in the year of disposal.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Costs comprise all direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate
portion of variable and fixed overheads. Fixed overheads are allocated
on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned to
inventory using a standard costing system. Net realisable value is the
estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the
estimated selling cost of completion and selling expenses.
(e) Trade Receivables & other receivables
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at original invoice
amounts less an allowance for uncollectable amounts and have
repayment terms between 30 - 60 days. Collectability is assessed on
an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are
written off. An allowance is made for doubtful debts where there is
objective evidence that the Group may not be able to collect all
amounts due according to the original terms. Objective evidence of
impairment include financial difficulties of the debtor, default of
payment terms or debts more than 60 days past due. On confirmation
that the trade receivable will not be collectable the gross carrying
value of the asset is written off against the associated provision.
From time to time the Group elects to renegotiate the terms of trade
receivables due from customers with which it has previously had a
good trading history. Such renegotiations will lead to a change in the
timing of payments rather than changes to the amount owed and are
not, in the view of the directors, sufficient to require the de-recognition
of the original instrument.
(f) Income Tax
The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the
current period's taxable income based on the national income tax rate
for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and
liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax base of
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial
statements, and to unused tax losses.
Deferred tax assets are only recognised for deductible temporary
differences, between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases, at the tax
rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities
settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantially
enacted for each jurisdiction. Exceptions are made for certain
temporary differences arising on initial recognition of an asset or
liability if they arose in a transaction other than a business combination
that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit
or taxable profit.
Deferred tax assets are only recognised for deductible temporary
differences and unused tax losses if there is reasonable certainty that
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary
differences and losses.

(h) Non-Current Assets Classified as Held for Resale
Non-current assets classified as held for sale are those assets whose
carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale
transaction rather than through continuing use and sale is considered
highly probable. These assets are stated at the lower of their carrying
amount and fair value less costs to sell and are not depreciated or
amortised. Interest expense continues to be recognised on liabilities
of a disposal group classified as an asset held for sale.
An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write-
down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell. A gain is recognised
for subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset but
not exceeding any cumulative
losses previously
recognised.
impairment
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that has been
disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a
separate major line of business or geographical operations, is part of
a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area
of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to
resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented
separately on the face of the profit or loss.
(i) Investments and Other Financial Assets
All investments and other financial assets are initially recorded at cost,
being the fair value of consideration given plus acquisition costs.
Purchases and sales of investments are recognised at trade date
which is the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the
asset. Accounting policies for each category of investments and other
financial assets subsequent to initial recognition are set out below.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to
receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another
party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing
involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset.
Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are
either discharged, cancelled or expire. The difference between the
carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to
another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the
transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in
profit or loss.
Classification and subsequent measurement
(i) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with a fixed
or determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market and
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest rate method.
The host debt contract of a convertible note is classified as loans and
receivables. The host debt contract is measured initially at the residual
amount after separating the embedded option derivative. The host
debt contract is subsequently at amortised cost using the effective
interest rate method.
(ii) Held-to-maturity investments
Held to maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that
have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the
Group's intention to hold the investments to maturity. They are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
rate method.
(iii) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets comprise investments in listed and
unlisted entities and any non-derivatives that are not classified as any
other category of financial assets, and are classified as non-current
assets (unless management intends to dispose of the investments
within 12 months of the end of the reporting period). After initial
recognition, these investments are measured at fair value with gains
or losses recognised in other comprehensive income (available-for-
sale investments revaluation reserve). Where there is a significant or
prolonged decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale (which
constitutes objective evidence of impairment) the full amount including
any amount previously charged to other comprehensive income is
recognised in profit or loss.
Purchases and sales of available-for-sale financial assets are
recognised on settlement date with any change in fair value between
trade date and settlement being recognised in other comprehensive
income. On sale the amount held in available-for-sale reserves
associated with that asset is recognised in profit or loss as a
reclassification adjustment.
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities are
accounted for in the consolidated financial statements as described in
note 2(b).
Reversal of impairment losses on equity instruments classified as
available-for-sale cannot be reversed through profit or loss. Reversal
of impairment losses on debt instruments classified as available-for-
sale can be reversed through profit or loss where the reversal relates
to an increase in the fair value of the debt instrument occurring after
the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss.
The fair value of quoted investments are determined by reference to
Securities Exchange quoted market bid prices at the close of business
at the end of the reporting period. For investments where there is no
quoted market, fair price is determined by reference to current market
value of another instrument which is substantially the same or is
calculated based on the expected cash flows of the underlying net
asset base of the investment.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
(v) Derivatives
Share options embedded in a convertible note are not closely related
to the debt host contract and are separated from the host debt contract
and accounted for as a separate derivative. The share options are
initially measured at fair value using the Black Scholes model or the
listed market price if one exists. Other share options are classified as
a derivative and initially measured at fair value net of transaction
costs. Subsequent adjustments to fair value of the share options are
taken to profit or loss.
The Group does not use derivative financial instruments such as
forward exchange contracts and interest rate swaps to mitigate risks
associated with interest rate and foreign exchange fluctuations.
31
NOTE 2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
employee benefits in respect of employees' services rendered up to
the end of the reporting period and are measured at amounts
expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
(vi) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Long service leave
Financial assets are classified at "fair value through profit or loss"
when they are held for trading for the purpose of short-term profit
taking or if it is a derivative that is not designated as a hedge. Such
assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in
carrying amount being included in profit or loss.
(j) Leases
Leases of property, plant & equipment where the Group has
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as
finance leases and capitalised at inception of the lease at the fair value
of the leased property, or if lower, at the present value of the minimum
lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the
finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a
constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Finance charges are charged to profit or loss over the lease period so
as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining
balance of the liability for each period. Capitalised leased assets are
depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset
or the lease term. Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the
risks and rewards of ownership of the net asset are classified as
operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of
incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a
straight-line basis over the period of the lease. When assets are
leased out under finance leases, the present value of the lease
payments is recognised as a lease receivable. The difference between
the gross receivable and the present value of the receivable is
recognised as unearned finance income. Lease income is recognised
over the lease term using the net investment method which reflects a
constant periodic rate of return. Lease income from operating leases
is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease
term. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating operating leases are
added to the carrying value of the leased asset and recognised as an
expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.
(k) Foreign Currency
Foreign currency transactions during the period are converted to
Australian currency at rates of exchange applicable at the dates of the
transactions. Amounts receivable and payable in foreign currency at
balance date are converted at the rates of exchange rates ruling at
year end. The gains and losses from conversion of short term
balances, whether realised or unrealised, are recognised in profit or
loss.
(l) Trade and Other payables
These amounts represent unpaid liabilities for goods received and
services provided to the Group and parent entity prior to the end of the
financial year. The amounts are unsecured and are normally settled
within 30 to 60 days, except for imported items for which 90 or 120
day payment terms are normally available.
(m) Borrowings
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of
transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at
amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of
transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the
profit or loss statement over the period of the loans and borrowings
using the effective interest method. Bank loans are subject to set-off
arrangements.
(n) Employee Benefit Provisions
Salary, wages and annual leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and
annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the end of the
reporting period are recognised in other liabilities or provision for
Liabilities for long service leave are recognised as part of the provision
for employee benefits and measure as the present value of expected
future payments to be made in respect of services provided by
employees to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit
credit method. Consideration is given to expected future salaries and
wages levels, experience of employee departures and period of
service. Expected future payments are discounted using national
corporate bond rates at the end of the reporting period with terms to
maturity that match as close as possible, the estimated future cash
outflows.
Retirement benefit obligations
The Group contributes to defined contribution superannuation funds
for employees. All funds are accumulation plans where the Group
contributed various percentages of employee gross incomes, the
majority of which were as determined by the superannuation
guarantee legislation. Benefits provided are based on accumulated
contributions and earnings for each employee. There is no legally
enforceable obligation on
the
superannuation plans other
the
superannuation guarantee legislation. Contributions are recognised
as expenses as they become payable.

(o) Cash
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash includes cash
on hand and at call deposits with banks or financial institutions, net of
bank overdrafts.
(p) Intangible assets
Brands Names
Expenditure on internally generated brand names are expensed as
incurred. Acquired Brand names are stated at cost and are considered
to have indefinite useful lives and are not amortised. The useful life is
assessed annually to determine whether events or circumstances
continue to support an indefinite useful life assessment. The carrying
value of brand names is reviewed annually for impairment, at the
same time every year.
Research and Development
Research is recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs incurred on
development (relating to the design and testing of new or improved
products) are recognised as intangible assets when it is probable that
the project will, after considering its commercial and technical
feasibility, be completed and generate future economic benefits and
generate future economic benefits and its costs can be measure
reliably. The expenditure capitalised comprises all directly attributable
cost, including costs of materials, services, direct labour and an
appropriate proportion of overheads. Other development expenditures
that do not meet these criteria are recognised as an expense as
incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense
are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Capitalised
development costs are recorded as intangible assets at cost less any
accumulated amortisation and impairment losses and amortised over
the period of expected future sales from the related projects which
vary from 5 - 7 years. The carrying value of development costs is
reviewed annually when the asset is not yet ready for use, or when
events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be
impaired.
32
(v) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable
to owners of PPK Group Limited, by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for
bonus elements in ordinary shares during the year.
Diluted earnings per share
Earnings used to calculate diluted earnings per share are calculated
by adjusting the basic earnings by the after-tax effect of dividends and
interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares. The
weighted average number of shares used is adjusted for the weighted
average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no
consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(w) GST
Revenues and expenses are recognised net of GST except where
GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable
from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as
part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense
item.
Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST
included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the
taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the
balance sheet. Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on
a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from
investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or
payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash
flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the
amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(x) 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. The business combination will be
accounted for from the date that control is attained, whereby the fair
value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including
contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised.
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.
(y) New and revised Standards that are effective for these
financial statements
PPK has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting
Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting
Standards Board “AASB” that are mandatory for the current reporting
period.
Adoption of these standards and interpretations did not have any
effect on the statements of financial position or performance of PPK.
Information of these standards is presented below.
NOTE 2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
Patents, Trademarks and Licences
Patents, trademarks and licences have a finite useful life and are
carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Amortisation is calculated on a straight line basis over the number of
years of their expected benefit which ranges from 3 to 20 years.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred and
the amount of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree over the fair
value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities.
Goodwill is not amortised but is measured at cost less any
accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is reviewed annually for
impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Gains and losses on
the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of
goodwill relating to the entity sold. Goodwill acquired is allocated to
each of the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the
combinations synergies. Impairment is determined by assessing the
recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill
relates. Impairment losses on goodwill cannot be reversed.
(q) Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date the Group assesses whether there is an
indication that individual assets are impaired. Where impairment
indicators exist, recoverable amount is determined and impairment
losses are recognised in the income statement where the asset's
carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount
is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use.
For the purpose of assessing value in use, the estimated future cash
flows are discounted to the 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. Where it is not possible to estimate
recoverable amount for an individual asset, recoverable amount is
determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
(r) Borrowing costs
All borrowing costs are expensed when incurred.
(s) Share-Based Payments
The Group recognises an expense for all share-based remuneration
and amortises those expenses over the relevant vesting periods
where required.
(t) Rounding of Amounts
The parent entity applied the relief available under ASIC Class Order
98/100 and accordingly, amounts in the financial statements and
directors' report have been rounded to the nearest thousand dollars,
or in certain cases, to the nearest dollar.
(u) Dividends
Provision is made for dividends declared, and no longer at the
discretion of the Group, on or before the end of the financial year but
not distributed at the end of the reporting period.
Dividends can no longer be paid unless:
(a) Assets exceed liabilities immediately before the dividend
is declared and the excess is sufficient for the payment
of dividends; and
(b) The payment of the dividend is fair and reasonable to the
company's shareholders as a whole; and
(c) The payment of the dividend does not materially
prejudice the company's ability to pay its creditors.

AASB 2012-3 Offsetting Financial Assets and Liabilities
► adds application guidance to AASB 132 Financial Instruments:
Presentation to address inconsistencies identified in applying
some of the offsetting criteria of AASB 132, including clarifying the
meaning of "currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off" and
that some gross settlement systems may be considered

Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets
► includes the requirement to disclose additional information about
the recoverable amount of impaired assets if that amount is based
on fair value less costs of disposal.
(z) New Accounting Standards and interpretations not yet
adopted
No new accounting standards and interpretations, that are available
for early adoption at 30 June 2015, but not yet adopted, will result in
any material change to the financial statements.
The Group has determined that there will be no material change on
the Group's financial reports following adoption of these standards in
future years, as either their application is only required to be applied
prospectively, they are disclosure standards only and there will be no
material impact on amounts recognised in the financial statements or
they are disclosure standards only that will require various additional
disclosures.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially
measured on a present value basis. The measurement

be made in optional periods if the lessee is reasonably
certain to exercise an option to extend the lease, or not to
exercise an option to terminate the lease.
lease payments
AASB 16 contains disclosure requirements for lessees.
The Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2019 but the impact of
its adoption is yet to be assessed by the Group.
(aa) Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into
the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available
current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of
future events and are based on current trends and economic data,
obtained both externally and within the Group.
Key estimates – Impairment
The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating
conditions specific to the Group that may lead to impairment of assets.
Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the
asset is determined. Value-in-use calculations performed in assessing
recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates.
Available-for-sale financial assets
The Group reviews each of its listed investments at each reporting
date to consider whether there is any indication that individual
investments are impaired. Based on all the information available to the
Directors it was determined that the Group's investment in the
following listed companies were impaired:
Standards issued but not yet adopted are as follows
SubZero Group Limited
AASB 9 - Financial Instruments (applies from 1 January 2018)
►
Simplifies measurement and classification of financial liabilities.
For example financial assets can be designated and measured
at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition if doing so
eliminates or significantly
reduces a measurement or
recognition inconsistency.
Furthermore AASB 9 introduces a new impairment model based
on expected credit losses.
AASB 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applies from 1
January 2017)
►
Establishes a new revenue recognition model and changes the
basis for deciding whether revenue is to be recognised over time
or at a point in time. It also provides new and more detailed
guidance on specific topics.
AASB 16 - Leases (applies from 1 January 2019)
►
The new standard will be effective for annual periods beginning
on or after 1 January 2019. Early application is permitted,
provided the new revenue standard, AASB 15 Revenue from
Contracts with Customers, has been applied, or is applied at the
same date as AASB 16. The key features of AASB 16 are as
follows:
Lessee accounting
•
•
Lessees are required to recognise assets and liabilities for
all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the
underlying asset is of low value.
A lessee measures right-of-use assets similarly to other
non-financial assets and lease liabilities similarly to other
financial liabilities.
As a result an impairment loss of $556,313 (2014 $828,000) was
taken up in profit or loss on this investment. The Directors determined
that no other listed available-for-sale financial assets were impaired at
balance date.
Investment in Associates
The Group's investments in associated entities are reviewed at each
reporting date to consider whether there is any indication that
individual investments are impaired. Based on all the information
available to the Directors it was determined that there were no
impairments of the Group's investments in associated entities.
Investment Properties
All investment properties have been included in the financial
statements at cost. The last independent valuation of investment
properties was conducted in November 2014, which indicated that no
impairment was necessary.
Goodwill, Brand Names, Plant and Equipment
Impairment charges of $7,696,000 have been recognised in respect
of goodwill, brand names, patents, licences and development costs
and $489,000 for plant and equipment for the current financial year
reflecting the challenging industry conditions particularly in the second
half of the 2015 financial year. Refer to note 18 for details of
assumptions used in estimating the recoverable amount of intangible
assets.
34
recorded a loss of $11,822,000 after tax and consumed $1,570,000
in operating cash flows. On 13th June 2017, being the date of
approval of the financial report, the Directors believe it is appropriate
to prepare the financial report on a going concern basis. In making
this assessment the directors have identified and considered:
•
•
•
•
As at the end of the 2015 financial year, and at all
times subsequently, the Group has been able to meet
its obligations as and when they fell due;
The Group currently enjoys low levels of debt
financing and the Directors are confident that
additional debt financing would be available if
required;
Industry conditions and the operating performance of
the group’s mining equipment segment is improving
and the company is currently responding to enquiries
for the sale of Coaltram mining equipment with a
number of customers; and
The Group has a history of strong support from the
majority of shareholders and has an expectation that
this will continue.
NOTE 2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
Deferred Tax Asset
Deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that there is
reasonable certainty of realising future taxable amounts sufficient to
recover the carrying value. Due to carry forward tax losses exceeding
$9m and an expectation that the current challenging industry
conditions would continue in the short term, the Directors assessed
that deferred tax assets would only be recognised to the extent of, and
offset against, available deferred tax liabilities. As a result, an
impairment of previously recognised deferred tax assets of $73,000
was recognised. Refer note 4 for further details.
Inventory
Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realisable value.
Estimates of net realisable value are based on the most reliable
evidence available at the time the estimates are made of the amount
the inventories are expected to realise and the estimate of costs to
complete. Key assumptions require the use of management judgment
which are continually reviewed. Management’s assessment resulted
in an inventory write-down of $2,191,000
Warranty Provision
Provisions for product warranties are based on current volumes of
products sold still under warranty and on historic quality rates for
mature products as well as estimates and assumptions on future
quality rates for new products and estimates of costs to remedy the
various qualitative issues that might occur. Total provisions for product
warranties as at year end was $140,000.
Key judgements
Cash Generating Units (CGU)
A key judgement has been the determination of cash generating units
relating to the assessment of assets for impairment. The Group has
determined the existence of two cash generating units for the mining
equipment segment: Manufacture (design, build and sale of capital
equipment) and Non-Manufacture (service, repair, hire and spare
parts distribution).
Classification as Held for Sale
The Group classifies assets as held for sale where an asset (or
disposal Group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition
subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such
assets (or disposal Groups) and the sale is highly probable. In
addition, the sale should be expected to qualify for recognition as a
completed sale within one year from the date of classification and
actions required to complete the plan should indicate that it is unlikely
that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will
be withdrawn.
(ab) Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities
and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal
course of business. As articulated in this report, the financial
performance for the group’s Mining Equipment business segment
has been materially impacted by the severe economic conditions
affecting the underground coal mining industry during the financial
year and subsequently. In particular, customer capital expenditure
restrictions have been detrimental to PPK’s Coaltram mining
equipment sales. Accordingly, in the 2015 financial year the Group

PPK Group Limited ("PPK") has formed a consolidated group for income tax purposes, effective on and from 1 July 2003, with each of its wholly owned Australian
subsidiaries. PPK, as the head entity, has recognised all current income tax assets and liabilities relating to the consolidated group.
The entities within the Group have entered into a tax sharing agreement where each subsidiary will compensate PPK for the amount of tax payable that would be calculated
as if the subsidiary was a tax paying entity.

Listed investments are recorded at fair value based on the ASX closing price at the 30 June of the relevant financial period.
Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognised directly in equity in other
comprehensive income through a reserve, unless they are impaired. When the available-for-sale financial asset is disposed of any gain or loss arising
from the sale is taken out of the reserve and included in the profit or loss.
A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of a security below its cost is considered an indicator that the securities are impaired.
If such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the value of the impairment is assessed and the difference between the cost and the
impaired value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in the profit or loss, is removed from other comprehensive
income and recognised in profit or loss. Any subsequent difference between the impaired value and the fair value will be recognised in equity through
the reserve.
In the current financial year, Additions at Cost includes $2.221M in listed shares of the purchaser received as part of the consideration on sale of the
Easy Living subsidiary investments.

A deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that there is reasonable certainty of realising future taxable amounts sufficient to recover the
carrying value. Due to carry forward tax losses of approximately $10M and an expectation that the current challenging industry conditions would
continue in the short term, the Directors assessed that deferred tax assets would only be recognised to the extent of, and offset against, available
deferred tax liabilities. As a result, an impairment of previously recognised deferred tax assets of $73,000 was recognised. Refer note 4 for further
details.

NOTE 18 INTANGIBLE ASSETS (Cont’d)
Licences, software and patents have a finite useful life. They are recorded at cost and amortised on a straight line basis over the number of years of
their expected life which ranges from 3 to 20 years.
Goodwill is assessed to have an indefinite life, it is tested annually for impairment with any impairment losses being charged to profit or loss.
Costs incurred on development (relating to the design and testing of new or improved products) are recognised as intangible assets when it is
probable that the project will, after considering its commercial and technical feasibility, be completed and generate future economic benefits and its
costs can be measured reliably. The expenditure capitalised comprises all directly attributable costs, including costs of materials, services, direct
labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognised as an expense
as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Capitalised
development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortised from the point at which the asset is ready for use on a straight-line basis over its
estimated useful life of 7 years.
Brand names have been assessed to have an indefinite useful life. These brands are registered with the relevant agencies. The registrations are
renewed at insignificant cost to the consolidated entity. This, combined with continued support for the brands by product development, advertising
and marketing expenditure, has allowed the Group to determine that the assets have an indefinite useful life. They are recorded at cost and tested
annually for impairment. Impairment losses are charged to profit or loss.
Impairment disclosures
At balance date PPK assessed certain non-current assets at their cash generating unit level for impairment. As a result intangibles of $7,696,000
were written down, of which $2,480,000 were acquired intangibles during the year relating to the Firefly and MONEx acquisitions (refer to Note 30).
The remaining intangibles balance of $120,000 relates to software acquired through business acquisition and acquired at cost.
Refer to note 2(p) for information on PPK’s accounting policy for intangibles.
Segment level for indefinite lives
The Group has assessed the Mining Equipment segment to comprise of two identifiable cash generating units: mining equipment manufacture and
mining equipment non-manufacture.
Intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are allocated to the mining equipment manufacture cash generating unit.
A cash generating unit level summary of the intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives were as follows:
Year ended 30 June 2015
Mining Equipment Manufacture
Year ended 30 June 2014
Mining Equipment Manufacture
Brand Names
$000s
Goodwill
$000s
-
497
-
155
Total
$000s
-
652
The recoverable amount of intangibles in the mining equipment manufacturing cash-generating units are determined based on value-in-use
calculations. Value-in-use is calculated based on the present value of 5 year discounted cash flow projections based on budgets approved by
management. The growth rate used in these budgets does not exceed the long term average growth rate for the business in which cash-generating
units operate.
The following assumptions were used in the value-in-use calculations:
Mining Equipment Manufacture
Growth Rate
0%
2015
Discount Rate
9.70%
Growth Rate
1.00%
2014
Discount Rate
9.50%
The budgets used by management use historical weighted average growth rates, adjusted for the current economic conditions 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.

Annual leave and current long service leave comprise amounts payable that are vested and could be expected to be settled within 12 months of the
end of the reporting period.
Non-current long service leave comprises amounts that are not vested at the end of the reporting period and the amount and timing of the payments
to be made when leave is taken is uncertain. Refer accounting policy Note 2(n) for more detail.
Warranty provisions comprise estimated costs to perform repairs to mining equipment while under warranty.
Make good provision comprise estimated costs to return leased premises to their original condition on expiry of the lease.
An onerous lease provision of $2,000,000 was recognised for 2015 in relation to long term lease contracts entered into for seven COALTRAMS with
an industry finance provider. PPK has determined that the lease payments are considerably higher than corresponding revenue currently expected
in the short term hire environment.

The major facilities are summarised as follows:
Banking overdrafts
Bank overdraft facilities are arranged with the National Australia Bank with the general terms and conditions being set from time to time.
Overdraft balances are subject to set-off arrangements whereby credit balances can be netted off against debit balances with the total
facility and interest being applied to the net balance.
Commercial bill facilities
Provided by the National Australia Bank Ltd (NAB).
$2,210,000 (2014 $19,800,000) variable interest rate facilities provided by the NAB. Further details on the banking facilities with the NAB
are included in note 26c.
Banking facilities are interest only with the NAB, mature in July 2016, and are subject to annual review and six monthly satisfaction of
banking covenants. At year end the full loan balance has been classified as current, due to failure to meet the interest service ratio
covenant. Subsequent to balance date, the full loan amount was repaid pursuant to refinancing arrangements as outlined in Note 33. At
year end the interest rates on the facilities are 4.89% (2014 5.44%-5.66%) inclusive of bank margins.
Provided by the Commonwealth Bank of Australia Ltd (CBA).
$2,666,667 of market rate facilities are provided by the CBA, maturing in April 2017.
Further details on the banking facilities with the CBA are included in note 26c.
Market rate interest banking facilities with the CBA are for 3 years and subject to principal and interest repayment and six monthly
satisfaction of banking covenants. There is no reason to believe that facilities will not be renewed at the end of the term. At year end the
interest rate on the facility was 6.11% inclusive of bank margins.
Vendor Loans
The PPK Mining Equipment Pty Ltd vendor loan relates to the MONEx business acquisition (refer note 30) and is secured by PPK Group
Ltd (parent company) guarantee. The loan is notional interest bearing at 6.5%. The PPK Property Trust vendor loan relates to the Mt
Thorley land and buildings and is secured by first registered mortgage over this property. The loan is fixed interest bearing at 8%.
NON-CURRENT LIABILITIES
NOTE 23 TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES
The PPK Group has loans owing to the non-controlling interest investors in the SLOT Loan Trust.
These loans are secured and are repayable by October 2015. The current terms of the loans are that they are interest free, and are in
proportion to the number of units each investor holds. The non-controlling investors are entitled to trust distributions each year, of the trust’s
net profit in proportion to the number of units they hold.
PPK considers that under the existing terms of the loans and their anticipated repayment date that their carrying value approximates the
present value of the loans.

Capital Risk Management
The Group considers its capital to comprise its ordinary share capital, reserves and retained earnings.
In managing its capital, the Group’s primary objective is to ensure its continued ability to provide a consistent return for its equity shareholders
through a combination of capital growth and distributions and through the payment of annual dividends to its shareholders. In order to achieve
this objective, the Group seeks to maintain a gearing ratio that balances risks and returns at an acceptable level and also to maintain a sufficient
funding base to enable the Group to meet its working capital and strategic investment needs. In making decisions to adjust its capital structure to
achieve these aims, either through altering its dividend policy, new share issues, share buy-backs, or the reduction of debt, the Group considers
not only its short-term position but also its long-term operational and strategic objectives.
It is the Group’s policy to maintain its gearing ratio within the range of 20% - 50% (2014 20% - 50%). The Group’s gearing ratio at the balance
sheet date is shown below:

[1] The available-for-sale financial assets reserve carries fair value adjustments made to available-for-sale financial assets which are recognised in other
comprehensive income.
When an available-for-sale financial asset is either sold or considered impaired the amount held in this reserve is recognised in the profit or loss.
[2]
[3]
The share options reserve is used to recognise the value of equity settled share-based payments provided to employees, including key management personnel, as
part of their remuneration and business vendors as part of business combination agreements. The current financial year share based payment expense of
$397,000 relates wholly to a business combination. In accordance with the terms of the business combination in October 2014 the vendor employee may receive
$1,000,000 in PPK Group Limited ordinary share capital in two $500,000 tranches over two years. As per this agreement and having met the vesting conditions the
vendor was issued 666,667 shares on 16 October 2015 being the first $500,000 tranche. Further the vesting conditions for the second tranche of $500,000 shares
due on 16 October 2016 were not met and accordingly no shares issued. The terms and condition of the contract effectively makes the agreement a share options
instrument under AASB 2 Share-based Payments and does not form part of the consideration paid for the acquisition in accordance AASB 3 Business
Combinations. The fair value of the options at issue date is deemed to represent the value of employee services received over the vesting period, recognised as a
proportional share-based payment expense during each reporting period, with the corresponding credit taken to a Share Option Reserve.
The foreign currency translation reserve is used for consolidation purposes to recognise exchange differences arising on translation of PPK’s foreign subsidiary
PPK (Beijing) Mining Equipment Co., Ltd.

Fair Value
The carrying values of financial assets and liabilities listed above approximate their fair value.
Estimated discounted cash flows were used to measure fair value, except for fair values of financial assets that were traded in active markets
that are based on quoted market prices.
The Group's and parent's investments and obligations expose it to market, liquidity and credit risks. The nature of the risks and the policies
the Group and parent has for controlling them and any concentrations of exposure are discussed as follows:
Hierarchy
The following tables classify financial instruments recognised in the statement of financial position of the Group according to the hierarchy
stipulated in AASB13 as follows:
- Level 1 – the instrument has quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
- Level 2 – a valuation technique is used using inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for financial instruments,
either directly (i.e. as prices), or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); or
- Level 3 – a valuation technique is used using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Financial risk Management
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the financial risk management framework. PPK Group's
activities expose it to a range of financial risks including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's risk management policies and
objectives are therefore designed to minimise the potential impacts of these risks on the results of the Group where such impacts may be
material. The Board receives monthly reports, which it reviews and regularly discuss the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the
appropriateness of the objectives and policies to support the delivery of the Group's financial targets while protecting future financial security.
The Board also has in place informal policies over the use of derivatives and does not permit their use for speculative purposes.
(a) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the Group's and parent entity's financial instruments will fluctuate because of
changes in market prices.
Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, equity price risk and currency risk.
(i) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a security, will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. Exposure to
interest risk arises due to holding floating rate interest bearing liabilities, investments in cash and cash equivalents and loans to related parties
and other persons. Although a change in the current market interest rate may impact the fair value of the Group's fixed interest financial
liabilities and other receivables, it does not impact the Group profit after tax or equity as these financial liabilities and other receivables are
carried at amortised cost and not fair value through profit or loss. Floating interest rates attached to the Group's and parent's financial assets
and liabilities give rise to cash flow interest rate risk. Any changes in the current market rate will affect the cash flows payable on floating rate
interest bearing liabilities and hence impact the Group's profit after tax.

The Group has performed sensitivity analysis relating to its interest rate risk based on the Group's year end exposure. This sensitivity
demonstrates the effect on after tax results and equity which could result from a movement in interest rates of +/- 1%.

Equity securities price risk is the risk that changes in market prices will affect the fair value of future cash flows of the Group's financial
instruments.
The Group is exposed to equity price risk through the movement in share prices of the companies in which it is invested. These are
determined by market forces and are outside control of the Group. The risk of loss is limited to the capital invested in relation to shares and
options held.
As the market value of listed companies fluctuate the fair value of the available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss of the Group change continuously.
Changes in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised through the available for sale reserve unless there is objective
evidence that available-for-sale financial assets have been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.
Unlisted investments do not have a quoted price in an active market and their fair value cannot be reliably measured, so they remain valued
at cost after their initial recognition. However when there is objective evidence of impairment of these unlisted investments, such impairment
losses are recognised in profit or loss.
The Group's portfolio of investments in listed companies is concentrated in a small number of companies. The individual performances of
these companies exposes the Group to a greater concentration of risk than just that of general market forces if a more wide-spread portfolio
were held. However, because of this concentration of holdings the Directors are able to regularly monitor the performance of the companies
within its portfolio.
Sensitivity disclosure analysis
The Group's exposure to equity price fluctuations on the fair value of its available-for-sale financial assets and its financial assets at fair
value through profit or loss is as follows:

(iii) Currency Risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial item will fluctuate as a result of movements in international exchange
rates. The Group is exposed to exchange rate transaction risk on foreign currency sales and purchases primarily with respect to the United States
dollar (USD). Of the total sales revenue for the Group some 5% (2014: 21%) is in export sales primarily in USD. The Group does not take forward
cover or hedge and was therefore at risk in relation to foreign currency movements during the year. The Group operates an office in Beijing, China
and maintains CNY and USD bank accounts in relation to this office. At balance date these accounts comprised approximately 1.7% of cash at bank.
(b) Credit Risk
The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk is generally the carrying amount net of any provisions for doubtful debts. The Group's exposure is
minimised by the fact that the trade receivables balance is with a diverse range of Australian and Multi-national customers. The Group has in place
informal policies for establishing credit approval and limits so as to manage the risk. The Group also has a credit risk exposure in relation to cash at
bank. The Group's policy is to ensure funds are placed only with major Australian banks thus minimising the Group's exposure to this credit risk. The
Group's credit risk relating to tenants is primarily the risk that they will fail to honour their lease agreements. The lease agreement with the Seven
Hills property is supported by a bank guarantee. Loans receivable from the associate entity PPK Willoughby Funding Unit Trust are secured by a
registered first mortgage over property owned by that entity. Refer to note 11 for detail on the Group's trade and other receivables. The Group's
exposure to credit risk at balance date by country of loans and receivables is as follows:

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group and parent will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Group’s
objective to mitigate liquidity risk is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans
and hire purchase contracts. The Group and parent's exposure to liquidity risk is not significant based on available funding facilities and cash flow
forecasts. Details of the Group’s financing facilities are set-out in note 22.
Financial Liabilities maturity analysis
The tables below reflect the undiscounted contractual settlement terms for the Group’s financial liabilities of a fixed period of maturity, as well as
the earliest possible settlement period for all other financial liabilities. As such the amounts may not reconcile to the balance sheet.
The NAB provide bank overdraft and bank loan facilities which expire on 31 July 2016. Bank overdraft facilities are $940,000, (unused at balance
date) and bank loan facilities are $2,210,000 (fully used at balance date). These facilities are subject to an annual review.
The CBA market rate loan facility of $2,666,667 (fully used at balance date) expires in April 2017 and is subject to quarterly review.
These renewal dates have been used for disclosure of maturity dates of bank overdraft and loans, even though they are subject to periodic review
as there is no reason to believe that the facilities will be altered by the bank at the time of annual review. These bank loans were subsequently
refinanced in the 2016 reporting year.

NOTE 30 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Summary of Acquisitions
During the period PPK Group acquired three businesses, being:
(i) MONEx
On 29 August 2014 PPK acquired the technology, associated intellectual property, manufacturing line and agreed inventory of the MONex
Electronic Management System (EMS). Said acquisition includes the remaining 50% ownership interest in the flameproof solenoid patent
(the first 50% having been acquired in the March 2014 Coaltram acquisition). The MONEx EMS is an integral part of the Coaltram
flameproof and explosion proof Load-Haul-Dump (LHD) multi-purpose vehicle manufactured by PPK.
(ii) Exlec
On 16 October 2014, PPK acquired 100% of the shares of Exlec Pty Ltd and Exlec Holdings Pty Ltd, which together own and operate the
business assets of Exlec.
Exlec designs, manufactures and overhauls hazardous area electrical equipment (with a key focus on underground mining) and provide
PPK with a complimentary offer to its existing product suite.
(iii)
Firefly
The business and assets of Firefly International were acquired in full on 8 December 2014. Firefly supplies, services and hires a range of
drilling, boring and other equipment which provides PPK with additional market share in compliment to its existing suite of products.
The land and buildings comprising the Firefly business premises were acquired in a separate simultaneous transaction (refer note 16).

The MONEx and Firefly business combinations resulted in a gain on bargain purchase since the fair value of the net assets acquired
was higher than the consideration paid. The gain on bargain purchase is recognised separately in profit or loss.
Goodwill
The goodwill arising in the Exlec acquisition is from the excess of consideration paid over fair value of net assets acquired. This
goodwill can be attributed to the synergies expected to be derived from the combination and value of the workforce of Exlec which
cannot be recognised as a separately identifiable intangible asset.
Revenue and Profit Contribution
The acquired businesses contributed $2,115,000 of revenue and $1,352,000 of net loss before tax and impairment charges to the
Group from the date of acquisition to 30 June 2015.
The net loss is inclusive of PPK's investment in costs relating to relocation, integration, restructuring and additional resources above
historical levels deemed necessary to deliver on business objectives and acquisition synergies over the medium term. Accordingly,
it is impracticable to disclose the profit or loss that the business would have contributed if the acquisition had occurred on 1 July
2014.
Impairment Charges
As at 30 June and in accordance with the Accounting Standards, PPK assessed certain non-current assets for impairment. As a
result intangibles of $7,696,000 and property, plant and equipment of $489,000 were written down (refer Note 3). Included in these
impairments were acquired intangibles above of $2,480,000 and acquired property, plant and equipment of $489,000.
Acquisition Costs
Costs arising directly from the acquisitions have been expensed directly in profit or loss and have been separately identified.
The total amount of acquisition costs is $323,000.
Contingent Liabilities
There are no contingent liabilities arising from the business combinations as at 30 June 2015.
Contingent Consideration
No contingent consideration exists in relation to the business combinations as at 30 June 2015, however refer note 25 in relation to the
separate share based payment agreement with the Exlec vendor employee.

NOTE 33 EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE REPORTING PERIOD
Winding up and deconsolidation of SLOT Loan Trust
In September 2015, Supported Living on Tweed Pty Ltd (borrower) repaid $3.235m in loans payable to the SLOT Loan Trust. In turn the SLOT Loan
Trust repaid $1.684m to external lenders. These comprised the primary assets and liabilities of the trust, accordingly, the SLOT loan trust has been
wound up during the year and accordingly been deconsolidated from the Group.
Debt Restructure
In October 2015, PPK borrowed $2.550m from Neruj Pty Ltd ATF Wemole Funding Trust. The loan attracts interest at 15% per annum, has an initial
12 month term and is secured by second mortgage over the property located at 13A Stanton Road, Seven Hill. PPK Directors Glenn Molloy, Graeme
Webb and Robin Levison share beneficial ownership and control of the trust. Proceeds from this loan were used to fully repay the existing National
Australia Bank commercial bill facility of $2.21m. In January 2017, upon sale of the Seven Hills Industrial property, the Neruj loan was repaid in full.
In October 2015, the Commonwealth Bank market rate loan of $2.729m owed by PPK Mining Equipment Pty Ltd (wholly owned PPK subsidiary) was
assigned to Seven Hills Property Holdings Pty Ltd (wholly owned PPK subsidiary) along with all the associated security interests. The assignment was
funded by Seven Hills Property Holdings Pty Ltd borrowing an equivalent amount from the Commonwealth Bank under market rate loan facilities
secured by first registered mortgage of the property located at 13A Stanton Road, Seven Hills. The term of the Commonwealth Bank loan is 3 years,
maturing on the 19th October 2018. In January 2017, upon sale of the Seven Hills Industrial property, the CBA loan was repaid in full.
Other loans receivable and payable
In October 2015, PPK (CC) Pty Ltd (wholly owned subsidiary) acquired loans receivable totalling $2.647m owed by Couran Cove Holdings Pty Ltd
ATF CCH trust and secured by real property located at Couran Cove Resort, South Stradbroke Island. There are multiple loan agreements comprising
the loans receivable with interest of 14 per cent per annum. These loans were repaid in full in September 2016, with principal and interest proceeds
totalling $2.905M.
As funding for the transaction above, PPK borrowed $2m and $1m from Atkone Pty Ltd and Contemplator Pty Ltd, respectively, at 10% interest per
annum on 2 year terms expiring September 2017. During the year, a further $0.45m was borrowed and $2.225m was repaid leaving outstanding
borrowings of $1.225m at 30 June 2016. The loans are secured by General Security Agreements over the assets of PPK (CC) Pty Ltd and PPK
Investment Holdings Pty Ltd, together with a Guarantee & Indemnity from PPK Group Limited and PPK Investment Holdings Pty Ltd. In September
2016, these loans were repaid in full and related securities, guarantees and indemnities released.
In May 2017, secured loans of $1.25M were received from entities associated with PPK Director Glenn Molloy. Loan proceeds were used to repay the
Mt Thorley premises vendor loan of $1.037M and the balance for capital expenditure and net working capital purposes. These loans were provided
under a one year term and attract interest of 10% per annum. The loans are secured by a first ranking mortgage over the property located at 25 Thrift
Close Mt Thorley and General Security Agreements and Specific Security Agreements for entities related to these premises or the Firefly business
operating from these premises.
Nowra facility closure
In December 2014, PPK completed the acquisition of the Firefly business. Operating from a base at Mt Thorley, Firefly sells, services and hires a
range of mobile pneumatic (air) powered products for the mining industry. The Firefly business compliments PPK's existing Rambor pneumatic
products business. Post-acquisition, PPK consolidated Rambor's operations at Nowra into both the Firefly Mt Thorley facility and PPK's Port Kembla
centre. This process was completed in early FY 2016 and accordingly the Nowra facility was closed, generating considerable cost savings across the
combined businesses.
Onerous lease
In June 2015, an onerous lease provision of $2,000,000 was recognised in relation to the operating lease of 7 x CoalTrams (Rental CoalTrams) from
a 3rd party finance provider. During the 2016 financial year lease payments were suspended whilst negotiations took place. At 30 June 2016, total
liabilities recognised in relation to the lease were $2.84m comprising $1.21m unpaid lease payments (rental arrears) and $1.63m onerous lease
provision. On 27 June 2016, Glegra Pty Ltd ATF The Coaltram Trust (TCT) being a PPK director related entity (refer related party disclosures) acquired
the rights and obligations of the lessor on arms-length commercial terms. Following this, PPK has paid TCT the rental arrears up to 31 August 2016.
The rental arrears from September 2016 to date remain outstanding by mutual agreement between PPK and TCT.
Sale of Industrial Property
In January 2017, the Seven Hills (NSW) Investment property was sold for $7.875m resulting in a profit on sale of $4,433m. Proceeds on sale were
used to repay the Commonwealth Bank market rate loan of $2.729M and Neruj Pty Ltd ATF Wemole Funding Trust loan of $3.195M (inclusive of
interest and further advances from initial loan of $2.550M).
Share Portfolio
PPK’s share portfolio is materially comprised of one key ASX listed stock, being Eureka Group Holdings (EGH). As at 30 June 2015, the EGH share
price was $0.51 and PPK held 6,450,000 shares at a value of $3,289,500. During the FY16 year 4,032,000 EGH shares were sold at an average

price of $0.379 per share, for proceeds of $771,687. The total EGH shareholding remaining as at the 12th June 2017 was 400,000 shares at $0.36.

employee may receive $1,000,000 in PPK Group Limited ordinary share capital in two $500,000 tranches over two years. As per this agreement and
having met the vesting conditions the vendor was issued 666,667 shares on 16 October 2015 being the first $500,000 tranche). Further, the vesting
conditions for the second tranche of $500,000 shares due on 16 October 2016 were not met and accordingly no shares issued.

Financial Statements that has significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the consolidated entity, the results of those
operations or the state of affairs of the consolidated entity in subsequent financial years.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of PPK Group Limited
Report on the financial report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of PPK Group Limited (the

2015, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income,
consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for
the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and
other explanatory information and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity
comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time
during the financial year.
Directors’ responsibility for the financial report
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report
that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the
Corporations Act 2001. The Directors’ responsibility also includes 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. The Directors also state, in the notes to the financial report, in accordance with
Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, the financial
statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards
require us to comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is
free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s
judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
report, whether due to fraud or error.
In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the
Company’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the
overall presentation of the financial report.

Corporations Act 2001.
Auditor’s opinion
In our opinion:
a
the financial report of PPK Group Limited is in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001, including:
i
ii
giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30
June 2015 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and
complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations

disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
Emphasis of matter
Without qualification to our opinion, we draw attention to Note 2(ab) to the financial
report, which indicates that the group incurred a loss after tax of $11,822,000 for the year
ended 30 June 2015, and net operating cash outflows of $1,570,000 for the year then ended.
These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2(ab), indicate the existence
of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to
continue as a going concern and therefore, the group may be unable to realise its assets and
discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, and at the amounts stated in the
financial report.
