CHAIRMAN’S 
LETTER 

3

FY2017 has delivered solid revenue growth1 in PWR’s key motorsports markets 
whilst laying down the base for future growth and expansion through the 
building of a second aluminium heat exchanger core production line at our USA 
subsidiary in Indianapolis. We are confident that PWR is well placed to continue 
its revenue growth for future years which will convert into growing profitability.

On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to present to you, PWR’s 2017 Annual Report.

In its first full financial year as a listed company, PWR has increased its revenue, primarily from PWR’s key 
motorsports market and has established a strategic platform for future growth. PWR expanded its production 
capability at its Indianapolis factory and has made significant investments in the development of next generation 
cooling technology and in the capability of its engineering and production people and plant.

Just prior to listing, PWR acquired C&R Racing Inc., based in Indianapolis. In FY 2017 as part of its technology 
and growth strategy, PWR installed a new aluminium heat exchanger core production line at C&R, which was 
commissioned in mid-August 2017. Ramping up production at C&R by installing the core production line was a 
strategic decision aimed at reducing equipment risk at the PWR Brisbane facility in Australia, and enabling PWR 
Brisbane to focus on next generation cooling cores. Increasing the production capability in Indianapolis to deliver 
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) programs, also reduces PWR’s USD currency risk.

The Net Profit After Tax for FY2017 of $9.3 million was driven by a very strong second half aligned to the seasonal 
activity in the motorsports industry, but has continued to be affected by unfavourable exchange rates. PWR has 
maintained its strong balance sheet with zero net debt and $9 million in cash at 30 June 2017, which has enabled 
the Board to increase the dividend payout ratio to 60% of full year NPAT. The Board has declared a final dividend 
for FY2017 of 4.7 cents per share, taking the full year dividend up to 5.6 cents per share.

PWR’s staff worldwide have worked hard to deliver value to shareholders. The Board acknowledges PWR’s strong 
leadership and its DNA of Passion, Winning and Results. Thank you to our passionate employees.

Bob Thorn retired as Chairman during the year due to a change in personal circumstances. I would like to 
acknowledge his contribution to the listing process and to our evolution into a listed company. Roland Dane joined 
the Board in March 2017; his industry knowledge and business acumen has already made a significant contribution 
to the PWR Board.

You will see a refreshed PWR logo on the front cover. Whilst embodying the familiar PWR ellipse that is recognised 
around the world as a sign of cooling excellence, it now incorporates the tagline of Advanced Cooling Technology. 
At its heart, PWR is a business based on innovative and leading edge technology and manufacturing capability.
It is important that PWR’s brand reflects this position. PWR is also focused on actively protecting its intellectual 
property rights in its technology and processes. 

On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank you, our shareholders, for your ongoing support of the PWR business.

2017 Annual Report

MANAGING 
DIRECTOR’S REPORT

OVERVIEW
We are pleased to report that PWR has delivered a solid 
result for FY2017, reporting NPAT of $9.3 million. This result 
was driven by a combination of strong organic growth in the 
Great British Pound (GBP) denominated sales of over 27% 
through increased penetration into many of our key markets. 
The key driver of PWR’s long term revenue and earnings 
has been consistently strong growth in UK and European 
motorsports sales, with FY2017 being no exception.

FINANCIALS
The FY2017 NPAT of $9.3 million represents a decrease of 
13.8% from the Pro Forma 2016 NPAT of $10.8 million which 
excludes costs incurred in the Group’s IPO in 20151, however 
it is higher than the Statutory FY2016 NPAT of $8.7 million. 

PWR achieved revenue of $48.1 million, which is up by 1.6% 
on FY2016 despite the appreciation of AUD against GBP of 
20.9% and against the United States dollar (USD) of 3.4% 
on average compared to FY2016. The revenue bridge below 
shows the organic revenue growth from FY2016 to FY2017 
in underlying currencies being 12.8% but with this growth 
being offset by a negative 9.4% impact from the movement 
between AUD and the underlying currencies over the 
same period.

PWR AUSTRALIA AND EUROPE
PWR has been supplying motorsports with cooling 
technology since 1998. In FY2017 motorsports represented 
66% of Group revenue with strong organic growth in 
our key UK/Europe markets. Our exposure in top level 
motorsports series such as Formula 1®, NASCARTM, WRC, 
Formula E, SuperGT (Japan) and Supercars keeps pushing the 
development of our cooling technology.

Other

Our growth in motorsports comes from new customers 
using PWR, increasing number of cooling requirements of 
existing customers, increasing take-up of PWR products by 
existing customers and customers moving to higher 
technology solutions. Our motorsports relationships with 
auto manufacturers such as Audi, Hyundai, Ferrari, Porsche, 
Toyota, and VW provide exposure of PWR technology and 
manufacturing capability to a wide range of influencers. 

During the year, PWR discontinued supply to a high 
volume, lower margin customer in USA as part of aligning 
our resources to the best net outcome. This has freed up 
significant furnace time at the PWR Australian production 
facility with minimal impact on EBITDA.

The PWR business model has focussed on low volume, high 
technology and higher margin products. The addition of 
the new aluminium heat exchanger core production facility 
at C&R will allow PWR to use its Australian facilities to 
maintain its focus in this area. 

5

C&R
The acquisition of C&R in 2015 was to provide PWR with a 
better footprint and traction in USA markets. This is slowly 
proving itself evidenced by OEM contracts that C&R have 
been nominated on as supplier of cooling parts. Management 
has been reshaping the C&R business to deliver profitable 
growth. In FY2017 management has:

1. 

2. 

3. 

4. 

 Reviewed and decided to divest the C&R business at 
Mooresville, which is primarily the rental of drivetrain and 
other non-cooling related motorsports products;

 Discontinued supplying two customers from C&R 
Indianapolis for non-cooling products. These products 
consumed significant time from our CNC machines which 
will now be redirected to cooling related work such as 
billet tanking; 

 Built a new aluminium heat exchanger core production 
line at Indianapolis. This is to increase our overall 
production capacity plus to allow C&R to focus on higher 
volume production runs such as some of the niche OEM 
programs we have announced; and

 Increased management strength through the 
appointment of Jim Ryder as General Manager USA. 
Jim has a strong history in motorsports cooling as well 
as considerable OEM experience. 

Whilst the proposed divestment of C&R Mooresville based 
business plus discontinued lines will reduce revenue at C&R 
by approximately US$1.7 million per annum moving forward, 
the forecast reduction in EBITDA is limited at US$0.2 million. 
This will align our resources into more profitable cooling 
opportunities in motorsports, OEM programs and emerging 
technologies consistent with PWR’s concentration on cooling 
technology and its trading margin capability.

OEM PROGRAMS*
PWR has been selected as a cooling assembly supplier on 
two OEM programs in North America which will contribute 
significant revenue in future years. PWR has also received 
nomination for an OEM program in UK/Europe. Additionally 
PWR is in the prototyping or development phase with other 
programs that may develop into supply programs.

The strong engineering relationships that PWR have with 
many automotive manufacturers through motorsports 
and other advanced cooling projects provides PWR with 
opportunities in niche OEM programs.

* 

 Future revenue from OEM programs is dependent on many factors 
such as success of the vehicle sales, timing of production, specification 
changes and order rate of product from the manufacturer.

RESOURCES
FY2017 has been a year of investment into resources for the 
Group. We have increased our engineering and production 
headcount by 19.6%. We have increased the capacity of our 
machine shops with two new CNC machines, primarily to deal 
with the increased business from providing billet tanks as part 
of our technology offering. The new C&R core production 
line also expands our production capacity.

The Group is committed to ensuring it has sufficient 
resources to take advantage of future opportunities 
which is part of our being “resource ready” philosophy.

CASH FLOW 
The Group generated cash from operating activities for 
FY2017 of $13.5 million which is reflected in our year end 
cash position of $9 million. The Group has consistently shown 
strong cash generation with the conversion of EBITDA to 
operating cash being over 90%. 

OUTLOOK
We see continuing growth in UK/Europe motorsports sales 
including opportunities in MotoGP and Formula E over the 
coming year plus have specific OEM programs coming on 
line over the next few years. Aftermarket sales in USA should 
benefit from having the core production localised at C&R. 
Electric vehicles in the emerging technology sector are 
evolving into a market where the combination of PWR’s R&D 
capacity, flexible manufacturing and testing capability suits 
demand for low run production.

PWR is continuing to develop its cooling technologies and 
expects to be able to introduce its next generation cooling 
cores during the coming year. 

The continuing imbalance between our GBP revenue to AUD 
production costs means exchange rate volatility will continue 
to affect results. 

PWR continues to be presented with new opportunities and 
we believe that these will continue to drive revenue and profit 
growth into the future.

 Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (“EBITDA”) is a non-IFRS term which has not been subject to audit or review but has been 
determined using information presented in the annual financial report.

Revenue 
The Group achieved overall revenue growth of 1.6% compared to the prior corresponding period. Organic revenue growth 
of 11.0% was offset by unfavourable movements in exchange rates due to the strengthening of the AUD. 

Organic revenue growth comprised increases in GBP sales of 27.7% and AUD sales of 3.5% compared to the prior corresponding 
period. USD sales declined by 0.7% following the decision to focus on supporting and developing higher margin business.

EBITDA
The lower EBITDA and EBITDA margin in FY17 compared to the prior corresponding period was mainly due to:

 –
 –

The flow on effect of the stronger AUD, particularly in relation to GBP;
14.0% increase in employee costs to achieve FY17 organic revenue growth of 11.0% and developing capacity to deliver on 
future growth opportunities. Underlying this increase was a 14.4% increase in average global headcount from the prior 
corresponding period, including 19.6% growth in average engineering and production headcount; and

 – Growth in general and administration costs of $0.80 million reflecting, in part, a full year of public company costs and 

additional marketing spend to promote the PWR and C&R brands.

Net profit after tax 
Net profit after tax of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2017 was $9.28 million (2016: $8.74 million, including the recognition 
of $2.67 million ($1.87 million after tax) of one-off expenses in relation to the initial public offering of the Company). 

Operating cash flow
The Group continued its strong cash conversion with FY17 operating cash flow of $13.53 million, a conversion of 91.9% from 
EBITDA. Operating cash flow was lower than the prior corresponding period due to:

 – $1.39 million increase in inventories during the year (including inventories classified as assets held for sale) as the Group 
invested in raw materials and heat exchanger cores manufactured by PWR and held in stock at C&R to ensure sufficient 
inventory to achieve expected growth in demand; and
The flow on effect of revenue and EBITDA impacts outlined above.

Review of operating segments
The Group has two operating segments, PWR Performance Products which comprises its Australian and European operations, 
and C&R which comprises its USA operations.

The PWR Performance Products segment generated external revenue of $31.78 million (2016: $30.73 million), primarily arising 
from increased market penetration in the motorsports sector in the United Kingdom and Europe, however unfavourable 
movement in average GBP exchange rates offset the majority of these revenue gains.

The C&R segment generated external revenue of $16.34 million (2016: $16.62 million), with organic growth of 1.7% offset by

During the year ended 30 June 2017, in addition to the items outlined above, the Group:

 – Was selected as cooling assembly supplier for two OEM programs in North America, with one commencing production during 

the year;

 – Received nomination as cooling assembly supplier for a niche OEM program in Europe;
 – Continued other OEM development and prototype work;
 – Commenced the construction of a new aluminium heat exchanger core production line at C&R in the USA, which will be 
operational in Q2 FY18, to increase overall production capacity, focus on longer run production programs and release 
production capacity at the existing Australian facility to focus on research and development, bespoke production and the 
domestic aftermarket;

 – Established a US$4.0 million bank facility to assist with the financing of the new aluminium heat exchanger core production 

line; and

 – Moved to exit lower margin, non-cooling business to focus resources on supporting and developing higher margin business. 

As a result, $0.85 million of inventories and $0.21 million of property, plant and equipment were reclassified to assets held for 
sale at 30 June 2017.

Balance sheet management
The balance sheet remains strong with cash of $9.06 million (30 June 2016: $8.80 million) and a zero net debt position.

and held in stock at C&R to ensure sufficient inventory to achieve expected growth in demand.

Capital expenditure for the year was $3.87 million (FY16: $2.41 million) including $1.92 million for the C&R heat exchanger core 
production line.

in emerging markets during the next financial year. 

Further information about likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations 
in future financial years has not been included in this report because disclosure of the information would be likely to result in 
unreasonable prejudice to the Group.

8.  EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO REPORTING DATE
The Board declared a fully franked final dividend of 4.70 cents per share. The financial effect of this dividend has not been 
brought to account in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017. 

Other than the matter noted above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of 
this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors of the Company, 
to affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group, in future 
financial years.

9.  DEED OF CROSS GUARANTEE
Pursuant to ASIC Corporations (wholly owned Companies) Instrument 2016/785, wholly owned subsidiaries, PWR Performance 
Products Pty Ltd and PWR IP Pty Ltd, are relieved from the Corporations Act 2001 requirements for the preparation, audit and 
lodgement of financial reports, and Directors’ reports. 

In accordance with the Class Order, the Company and each of the subsidiaries entered into a Deed of Cross Guarantee, with the 
effect of the Deed being that the Company guarantees to each creditor, payment in full of any debt in the event of winding up 
of any of the subsidiaries under certain provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. 

10.  ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
The Group is not subject to any significant environmental regulations. 

11.  INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS 
The Group has indemnified the Directors and Executives for costs incurred, in their capacity as a Director or Executive, for which 
they may be held personally liable, except where there is a lack of good faith. 

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

12.  PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf 
of the Company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility 
on behalf of the Company for all or part of those proceedings. 

13.  NON-AUDIT SERVICES
During the year KPMG, the Group’s auditor, has not performed any services other than the audit and review of the financial 
statements.

14.  LEAD AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION

B.  Remuneration Governance
The following shows the Board’s framework to establish and review remuneration for KMP and employees of the Group:

Board

Approves the overall remuneration framework and policy, ensuring it is fair, transparent and aligned with 
long term outcomes

Nomination and 
Remuneration 
Committee (“NRC”)

NRC is delegated to review and make recommendations to the Board on remuneration policies for  
non-executive directors, senior executives and all employees including incentive arrangements 
and awards. The NRC can appoint remuneration consultants and other external advisors to provide 
independent advice

Managing Director

Provides all relevant information to the NRC to facilitate the NRC making recommendations to the Board 
on remuneration decisions

C.  Non-Executive Director Remuneration

C1.  Policy
A copy of the remuneration policy for Non-Executive Directors is available on the Group’s website. The Board’s Non-Executive 
Director remuneration policy is to:

 – Provide a clear fee arrangement that avoids potential conflicts of interest associated with performance incentives,
 – Remunerate Directors at market rates for their commitment and responsibilities, and 
 – Obtain independent external remuneration advice when required.

Non-Executive Directors receive remuneration for undertaking their role. They do not participate in the Group’s incentive plans 
or receive any variable remuneration. Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to retirement payments.

The aggregate Non-Executive Director remuneration cap approved by shareholders in 2016 is $750,000 per annum (inclusive 
of superannuation contributions). The Board determines the distribution of Non-Executive Director fees within the approved 
remuneration cap.

C2.  Remuneration of Non-Executive Directors during Reporting Period
The following table sets out the annual Board and Committee fees (inclusive of superannuation) for Non-Executive Directors 
during the reporting period. Upon the appointment of the Interim Chairman on 3 March 2017, the Board undertook a 
remuneration benchmarking exercise and reduced the annual fee for the Chairman’s role by $100,000 to $150,000 per annum.

D.  Executive Director and Senior Executive Remuneration

D1.  Remuneration policy for senior executives
The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for the Managing Director and other senior 
executives is:

 – Provide for both fixed and performance based remuneration, 
 – Provide a remuneration package based on an annual review of employment market conditions, the Group’s performance and 

individual performance, and

 – Obtain independent external remuneration advice when required.

The remuneration framework for senior executives comprises two elements:

1.  Fixed remuneration; and

2.  “At risk” or performance linked remuneration.

D1.1  Fixed remuneration
Fixed remuneration is a function of size and complexity of the role, individual responsibilities, experience, skills and market pay 
levels. This consists of cash salary, salary sacrifice items, employer superannuation, annual leave provisions and any fringe benefits 
tax charges related to employee benefits. Superannuation is paid at the relevant statutory contribution limit. The opportunity to 
salary sacrifice superannuation benefits on a tax-compliant basis is available upon request.

The Board determines an appropriate level of fixed remuneration for the senior executives with recommendations from the 
Nomination and Remuneration Committee.

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually following performance reviews at the end of the financial year and takes into account 
role and accountabilities, relevant market benchmarks and attraction, retention and motivation of executives in the context of 
the talent market.

The Managing Director and senior executives did not receive remuneration increases to their fixed remuneration during the 
Reporting Period or from 1 July 2017. 

D1.2  Performance linked remuneration

Short-term incentive plan
The Managing Director and senior executives are eligible to participate in the Group’s short-term incentive plan. 

Under the plan, participants have an opportunity to receive an annual cash bonus calculated as a percentage of their total fixed 
remuneration (“TFR”) and conditional on the achievement of short-term financial and non-financial performance measures at a 
corporate and individual level. For the year ended 30 June 2017, the operation of the short term-incentive plan had an EBITDA 
target, established by the Board at the commencement of the Reporting Period to trigger its operation. The EBITDA target was 
not achieved and no short-term incentives were awarded to the Managing Director or senior executives. 

The Board retains an overarching discretion to award an annual bonus. In exercising that discretion they have regard to the 
remuneration policy, market conditions and Group performance.

Long-term incentive plan
Shareholders approved the implementation of a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) at the 2016 Annual General Meeting (“AGM”). 

The LTIP is an equity-based incentive designed to provide participants with the incentive to deliver growth in shareholder 
value. Senior Executives receive performance rights (“Rights”) on an annual basis under the Performance Rights Plan, subject 
to the approval of the Board. The Managing Director is entitled to receive Performance Rights on an annual basis under the 
Performance Rights Plan, subject to approval of shareholders. One grant of Rights was made to the Senior Executives and 
Managing Director in the 2017 financial year following approval of Shareholders at the 2016 AGM.

Rights convert to ordinary shares in the Company on a one-for-one basis at the end of the three-year performance period 
depending on the extent to which performance hurdles are achieved and service conditions met.

The performance hurdles are the achievement of Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) ranking criteria relative to the TSR of 
constituents of the S&P/ASX300 (excluding mining and exploration entities) and growth in annual Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) 
relative to a target set by the Board. Participants must remain continually employed with the Company until the date of vesting. 
Vesting on each tranche is as follows:

TSR Ranking (50%)

EPS Growth (50%)

The percentage of Performance Rights linked to TSR will be 
50%. TSR is calculated by an independent third party, comparing 
the TSR percentile rank that the Company holds relative to all 
S&P ASX 300 constituent companies (excluding Energy sector 
(oil, gas and coal)) for the relevant 3-year Performance Period.

The percentage of the Performance Rights linked to the EPS 
hurdle will be 50%. Vesting is determined by the growth in EPS 
from the financial year immediately prior to the start of the 
Performance Period (base year) to the end of the third year of 
the Performance Period, measured against specific EPS targets 
outlined below.

TSR Ranking

Vesting outcome

EPS

TSR is 50% or less 

Nil vesting

TSR is more than 50% but less  
than 75%

Rateable vesting between 20%  
and 99%

EPS growth is more than 4% 
but less than 12%

Rateable vesting between  
50% and 99%

TSR is 75% or more

100% vesting

EPS growth is 12% or more

100% vesting

Rights that do not vest at the end of the three-year period lapse, unless the Board in its discretion determines otherwise. Upon 
cessation of employment prior to the vesting date, Rights will be forfeited and lapse. Rights do not entitle holders to dividends 
that are declared during the vesting period. The Board believes that performance hurdles, in combination, serve to align the 
interests of the individual senior executives with the interests of the Company’s shareholders.

E.  Company performance and remuneration outcomes
The various components of the way the Group remunerates key management personnel have been structured to support the 
Group’s strategy and business objectives which in turn are designed to generate shareholder wealth. 

When setting targets and determining the quantum of the remuneration increases and the proportion of fixed and performance 
linked remuneration components, the Board refers to remuneration benchmarking reports provided by independent sources and 
remuneration consultants from time to time. 

The at risk component (short-term incentive plan and long-term incentive plan) of the remuneration structure intends to reward 
achievement against Group and individual performance measures over one year and three-year timeframes, respectively.

J.  Remuneration consultants
The Board did not retain remuneration consultants during the Reporting Period. 

K.  Voting and comments made as the Company’s 2016 Annual General Meeting
The Company received more than 75% of “yes” votes on its remuneration report for the 2016 financial year. The Company did not 
receive any specific feedback at the 2016 AGM on its remuneration report.

L.  Key management personnel transactions
KMP, or their related parties, may hold positions in other entities that result in them having control, or joint control, over the 
financial or operating policies of those entities.

These entities may transact with the Group. The terms and conditions of the transactions with KMP and their related parties were 
no more favourable than those available, or which might reasonably be expected to be available, on similar transactions to non-
key management personnel related entities on an arms length basis.

From time to time, directors of the Group, or their related entities, may purchase goods from the Group. These purchases are 
on the same terms and conditions as those entered into by other Group employees or customers, and are trivial or domestic in 
nature.

This report is made with a resolution of the directors:

NOTES TO THE 
CONSOLIDATED 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

29

SECTION A:  ABOUT THIS REPORT

A1  Reporting entity
PWR Holdings Limited (the “Company”) is a Company 
domiciled in Australia. 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at 
and for the year ended 30 June 2017 comprise the Company 
and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group” and 
individually as “Group Entities”).

The Group is involved in the design, engineering, production, 
testing, validation and sales of customised aluminium cooling 
products and solutions to the motorsports, automotive 
original equipment manufacturing, automotive aftermarket 
and emerging technologies sectors for domestic and 
international markets.

The Company’s registered office and principal place of 
business is 103 Lahrs Road, Ormeau, Queensland 4208.

The Group is a for-profit entity for the purposes of preparing 
these financial statements.

A2 Basis of preparation

(a)  Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements are general purpose 
financial statements which have been prepared in accordance 
with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) adopted by 
the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and 
the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial 
statements comply with International Financial Reporting 
Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting 
Standards Board (IASB).

The financial statements were approved by the Board of 
Directors on 24 August 2017. 

(b)  Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared 
on the historical cost basis except for any derivative financial 
instruments which are recognised at fair value.

(c)  Functional and presentation currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented 
in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional 
currency. 

(d)  Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of consolidated financial statements 
requires management to make judgements, estimates and 
assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies 
and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income 
and expenses. 

The estimates and associated assumptions are based on 
historical experience and various other factors that are 
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the 
results of which form the basis of making judgments about 
carrying values of the entities within the Group. Actual results 
may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on 
an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are 
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and 
in any future periods affected.

Information about critical judgements, estimates and 
assumptions in applying accounting policies that have the 
most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the 
consolidated financial statements is included in the following 
notes:

 – Note C3 – Inventories
 – Note C7 – Intangible assets

 – Note C9 – Provisions
Section E – Taxation
 –

A3 Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies set out in the individual notes to 
the consolidated financial statements have been applied 
consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated 
financial statements.

A4 Foreign currency transactions and operations
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the 
respective functional currencies of Group entities at 
exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary 
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are 
translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at 
that date. 

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair 
value in a foreign currency are translated to the functional 
currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was 
determined. Non-monetary items that are measured based 
on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using 
the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

Foreign currency differences are generally recognised in 
profit or loss. 

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including 
goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition 
are translated to the functional currency at exchange rates 
at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign 
operations are translated to the functional currency at 
exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Foreign currency translation differences are recognised in 
other comprehensive income and presented in the foreign 
currency translation reserve in equity.

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and 
non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the 
following methods. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in 
the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Non-derivative financial liabilities
Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest 
cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at reporting date.

Derivative financial instruments
Fair value, which is determined for recognition and disclosure purposes, is calculated based on valuation techniques using 
observable market inputs.

SECTION B:  BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

B1  Operating segments
The Group determines its operating segments based on information presented to the Managing Director being the chief 
operating decision maker, with operating segments based on the Group’s operating divisions.

Intersegment pricing is determined based on cost plus margin.

Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received 
or receivable, net of returns and trade discounts. Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership 
have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods 
can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be 
measured reliably.

Rendering of services
Revenue from rendering of services is recognised in profit or loss in proportion to the stage of completion of the transaction at 
the reporting date.

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested and changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments at 
fair value through profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method. 

Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings and changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments at fair 
value through profit or loss. Interest expense is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method.

Foreign currency gains and losses on monetary assets and liabilities are reported on a net basis as either finance income or 
finance costs depending on whether foreign currency movements are in a net gain or net loss position.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

SECTION C:  OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)

Recognition and measurement
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 

The cost of inventories is based on the first in first out principle, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, 
production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of 
manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal 
operating capacity. 

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and 
selling expenses.

The cost of inventories sold and recognised as an expense during the year ended 30 June 2017 was $24,653,073 
(2016: $22,156,338).

C4 Assets held for sale
Part of the C&R segment is presented as assets held for sale following the commitment of the Group’s management to sell 
certain assets related to its operation located at North Carolina, USA. Efforts to sell the assets were well progressed at year end, 
with the transaction expected to conclude during the 2018 financial year. The sale related to non-cooling components of the 
business, with the Group intending to focus resources on supporting and developing higher margin, cooling related business.

At 30 June 2017, the carrying value of assets held for sale was:

NOTES TO THE 
CONSOLIDATED 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

SECTION C:  OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)

Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self constructed assets includes 
the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for 
their intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and 
capitalised borrowing costs. Cost also may include transfers from other comprehensive income of any gain or loss on qualifying 
cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment. Purchased software that is integral to the 
functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items 
(major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from 
disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognised net within other income in profit or loss.

Subsequent costs
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will 
flow to the Group. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values using the 
straight-line and/or diminishing value basis over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognised in profit or loss. Leased 
assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will 
obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. 

The estimated useful lives are as follows:

 – Plant and equipment

 – Motor vehicles

2017

2016

2-7 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.

Goodwill
Goodwill on acquisition is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the acquirer’s 
interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. At the acquisition date, any goodwill 
acquired is allocated to each of the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the combination’s synergies. Goodwill is not 
amortised.

Trademarks
Separately acquired trademarks are measured initially at cost of acquisition. Trademarks acquired in a business combination are 
recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Fair value is determined using the relief from royalty method. 

The Group’s trademarks are subsequently carried at cost less impairment losses and are not amortised as they are considered to 
have an indefinite useful life.

Impairment

Non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at 
each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset’s 
recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill and trademarks with an indefinite life are tested annually for impairment.

PWR Holdings Limited  
2017 Annual Report

NOTES TO THE 
CONSOLIDATED 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

SECTION C:  OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its related cash-generating unit (CGU) exceeds its 
estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value 
less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax 
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. 
For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of 
assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGU.

Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce 
the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of other assets in the CGU 
on a pro rata basis. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only 
to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of 
depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Impairment
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill and trademarks are allocated to the Group’s cash generating units (CGUs) as 
follows:

The recoverable amount of each CGU was based on its value in use, determined by discounting the future cash flows to 
be generated from the continuing use of each CGU. The carrying amount of each CGU was determined to be less than its 
recoverable amount and accordingly, no impairment loss was recognised. 

Value in use is calculated based on the present value of the cash flow projections over a five year period and include a terminal 
value at the end of year five. The cash flow projections over the five year period are based on the Group’s budget for 2018 
and growth over the forecast periods based on the Group’s business plans and management’s assessment of the impacts of 
underlying economic conditions, past performance and other factors on each CGU’s financial performance. For the C&R CGU, 
the cashflow projections include management’s estimate of the expected growth from C&R’s involvement in OEM programs 
as a cooling assembly supplier. The long term growth rate used in calculating the terminal value is based on long term inflation 
estimates for the country and industry in which each CGU operates.

The cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate based on a weighted average cost of capital 
adjusted for country and industry specific risks associated with each CGU.

Key assumptions used in the estimation of value in use were:

PWR Performance Products

Warranties
A provision for warranties is recognised when the underlying products are sold, based on historical warranty data and a weighting 
of possible outcomes against their assumed possibilities.

Provision for warranties relates to products sold during the current and prior financial years. The provision is based on estimates 
made from historical warranty data. The Group expects to settle the majority of the liability over the next year.

SECTION D:  EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (CONTINUED)

Recognition and measurement

Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected 
to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past services provided by 
the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Long-term employee benefits
The Group’s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefits that employees have 
earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value.  
Re-measurements are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. 

Share based payment transactions
The grant-date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as an expense, with a corresponding 
increase in equity, over the period that the employees become unconditionally entitled to the awards. The amount recognised as 
an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are 
expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that meet the 
related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. 

Termination benefits
Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and 
when the Group recognises costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the 
reporting date, then they are discounted.

Defined contribution funds
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed as the related service is provided.

D3 Share based payments
During the year the Board approved the grant of performance rights to employees under the terms of the Performance Rights 
Plan (the Plan) following approval at the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 21 October 2016.

Under the Plan, the Board may issue employees conditional performance rights for no consideration. Subject to the achievement 
of vesting conditions, the performance rights entitle the employee to receive ordinary shares in the Company at no cost.

Vesting of the performance rights approved during the half year is subject to meeting a 3 year service condition and achievement 
of performance hurdles (based on either an EPS growth target or total shareholder return (TSR) ranking). The performance 
period for the rights issued is from 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2019.

135,875 performance rights were issued to key management personnel during the year with 50% subject to the EPS performance 
hurdle and 50% subject to the TSR performance hurdle. 135,875 performance rights remain on issue at 30 June 2017. 

In accordance with the Group’s accounting policy, the grant date fair values of the rights issued will be recognised as an expense 
over the vesting period. An expense of $48,939 was recognised during the year and included in “employee expenses” in the 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

The fair value of the TSR component of the performance rights has been measured using a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value 
of the EPS component of the performance rights has been measured using the Black Scholes formula.

NOTES TO THE 
CONSOLIDATED 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

SECTION E:  TAXATION (CONTINUED)

Recognition and measurement
Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax is recognised in 
the statement of comprehensive income except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, or in other 
comprehensive income.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted 
at the balance date, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years. Current tax payable also includes any tax 
liability arising from the declaration of dividends.

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying 
amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following 
temporary differences are not provided for: initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets and liabilities that 
affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and difference relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will 
probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of 
realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at 
the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax 
liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different 
tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised 
simultaneously.

In determining the amount of current and deferred tax the Group takes into account the impact of uncertain tax positions and 
whether additional taxes and interest may be due. The Group believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open 
tax years based on its assessment of many factors, including interpretations of tax law and prior experience. This assessment 
relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve series judgements about future events. New information may become 
available that causes the Group to change its judgement regarding the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes to tax 
liabilities will impact tax expense in the period that such a determination is made.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which 
the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit 
will be realised.

Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognised at the same time as the liability to pay the 
related dividend.

E2  Tax assets and liabilities

Current tax assets and liabilities
The current tax asset of $900,168 (2016: liability of $408,648) represents the amount of income tax receivable/payable in 
respect of current and prior periods to the relevant tax authority.

SECTION F:  CAPITAL STRUCTURE AND BORROWINGS (CONTINUED)

Recognition and measurement

Non-derivative financial liabilities
The Group initially recognises debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities on the date that they are originated. All other 
financial liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions 
of the instrument. 

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.

The Group classifies non-derivative financial liabilities into the other financial liabilities category. Such financial liabilities are 
recognised initially at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial 
liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Interest-bearing loans and liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial 
recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value 
being recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis.

Derivative financial instruments
The Group may use derivative financial instruments to manage its foreign currency exposures. Embedded derivatives are 
separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if certain criteria are met.

Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value, any directly attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss as 
they are incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally 
recognised in profit or loss.

SECTION F:  CAPITAL STRUCTURE AND BORROWINGS (CONTINUED)

Capital management
The Board aims to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future 
development of the business. The Board of Directors monitors the capital base as well as the level of dividends to ordinary 
shareholders.

There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.

Recognition and measurement

Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to issue of ordinary shares are recognised 
as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit.

The Company does not have authorised capital or par value in respect of its issued shares. All shares are fully paid. The holders 
of ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends as declared from time to time and are entitled to one vote per share at 
meetings of the Company. 

Foreign currency translation reserve 
The foreign currency translation reserve comprises all foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the financial 
statements of foreign operations, as well as the effective portion of any foreign currency differences arising from hedges of 
a net investment in a foreign operation.

Share based payments reserve 
The share based payments reserve comprises the grant-date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees.

The Group leases its office and factory facilities under operating leases from related parties (refer Note H2) as well as from non-
related entities. During the financial year ended 30 June 2017 $1,503,920 was recognised as an expense in the income statement 
in respect of operating leases (2016: $1,404,746).

Recognition and measurement

Leased assets
Assets held by the Group under leases that transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified 
as finance leases. The leased assets are measured initially at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of 
the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the assets are accounted for in accordance with the accounting 
policy applicable to that asset. 

Assets held under other leases are classified as operating leases and are not recognised in the Group’s statement of financial 
position.

Lease payments
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease 
incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease.

Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the 
outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic 
rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Other commitments
At 30 June 2017, the Group had agreed to purchase plant and equipment for $1,415,658 (2016: $764,280).

SECTION H:  OTHER INFORMATION

H1  Financial risk management
The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:

credit risk
 –
 –
liquidity risk
 – market risk

The note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, the Group’s objectives, policies and 
processes for measuring and management risk, and the Group’s management of capital.

Risk management framework
The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management 
framework. 

The Group’s risk management activities are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate 
risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management activities are reviewed to reflect changes 
in market conditions and the Group’s operations. The Group aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment 
in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. 

Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its 
contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers.

The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management 
also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including the default risk of the industry and 
country in which customers operate. Further details of concentration of revenue are included in Note B1.

Management assesses each new customer for creditworthiness before the Group’s standard payment and delivery terms and 
conditions are offered. 

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the end 
of the reporting period was as follows.

Cash and cash equivalents

Trade and other receivables

Cash and cash equivalents
The Group held cash and cash equivalents of $9,063,782 at 30 June 2017 (2016: $8,796,805), which represents its maximum 
credit exposure on these assets. The cash and cash equivalents are held with bank and financial institution counterparties, which 
are rated AA- to AA+, based on independent rating agency ratings.

Trade and other receivables
The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management 
also considers the demographics of the Group’s customer base, including the default risk of the country in which customers 
operate, as these factors may have an influence on credit risk.

Management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 30 days are still collectible in full, based 
on historic payment behaviour and analysis of customer credit risk.

Impairment losses of $80,740 were recognised in respect of trade and other receivables during the year (2016: nil). 

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities 
that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as 
possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, 
without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

In addition, the Group maintains the following lines of credit, see Note F1:

 – A$500,000 trade finance facility; 
 – A$5,000,000 asset finance facility; 
 – US$4,000,000 foreign currency advance facility; and
 – A$50,000 corporate credit card facility.

Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates, will affect the Group’s 
income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control 
market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

Currency risk
The Group is exposed to currency risk on its financial assets and liabilities arising from sales, purchases and borrowings that are 
denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, being the Australian dollar (AUD), 
Pound Sterling (GBP) and US dollar (USD). The currencies in which these transactions are denominated are primarily AUD, GBP 
and USD.

Exposure to currency risk

Sensitivity analysis
A strengthening (weakening) of the GBP or USD against the AUD at 30 June would have affected the measurement of financial 
instruments denominated in a foreign currency and increased or (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown 
below. This analysis is based on foreign currency exchange rate variances that the Group considered to be reasonably possible 
at the end of the reporting period. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant 
and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016, albeit that the 
reasonably possible foreign exchange rate variances were different, as indicated below.

2017 Annual Report

NOTES TO THE 
CONSOLIDATED 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

SECTION H:  OTHER INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

H4 Subsequent events
The Board declared a fully franked final dividend of 4.70 cents per share. The financial effect of the 2017 declared final dividend 
has not been brought to account in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017. 

Other than the matter noted above, there has not arisen in the interval since the end of the financial year and the date of this 
report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors of the Group, to 
affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future 
financial years.

H5 New accounting standards

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2016 and earlier 
adoption is permitted, however the Group has not early adopted the following new or amended standards in preparing these 
consolidated financial statements. 

Disclosure Initiative (Amendments to AASB 107)
The amendments require disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from 
financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flow and non-cash changes. The amendments are effective for 
annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017, with early adoption permitted. To satisfy the new disclosure requirements, 
the Group intends to present a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances for liabilities with changes arising from 
financing activities.

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
AASB 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaces 
existing revenue recognition guidance, including AASB 18 Revenue. AASB 15 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 
1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted. 

Under AASB 15, an entity recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control’ of the goods 
or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer.

The Group recognises revenue from the following sources:

Sale of manufactured products;
Sale of manufactured tooling fixtures which are used in the process of manufacturing products;

 –
 –
 – Provision of wind tunnel testing services; and
 – Recovery of freight and sale of scrap raw material.

The Group’s current accounting policies for the recognition and measurement of revenue is disclosed in Note B2. The Group has 
completed an initial assessment of the application pf AASB 15 to these arrangements and is currently performing a more detailed 
assessment on areas identified as potentially being impacted. The Group expects to disclose additional quantitative information 
before it adopts AASB 15.

The Group plans to adopt AASB 15 in its consolidated financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2019, using the 
retrospective approach. As a result, the Group will apply all of the requirements of AASB 15 to each comparative period 
presented and adjust its consolidated financial statements. 

NOTES TO THE 
CONSOLIDATED 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

57

SECTION H:  OTHER INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

AASB 16 Leases
AASB 16 introduces a single, on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees. A lessee recognises a right-of-use asset 
representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. There are 
optional exemptions for short-term leases and leases of low value items. Lessor accounting remain similar to the current standard, 
ie. lessors continue to classify leases as finance or operating leases.

The standard is effective for annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Early adoption is permitted for entities that apply 
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers at or before the date of initial application of AASB 16. The Group plans to apply 
AASB 16 initially in its financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2020.

The Group has started an initial assessment of the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements, with the most 
significant impact identified so far being that the Group will recognise new assets and liabilities for its operating leases of factory 
and office facilities. In addition, the nature of expenses related to those leases will now change as AASB 16 replaces the straight-
line operating lease expense with a depreciation charge for right-of-use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities. The Group 
has not yet decided whether it will use the optional exemptions. No significant impact is expected for the Group’s finance leases.

The Group has not yet quantified the impact on its reported assets and liabilities of adoption of AASB 16. The quantitative 
effect will depend on, inter alia, the transition method chosen, the extent to which the Group uses the practical expedients 
and recognition exemptions, and any additional leases that the Group enters into. The Group expects to disclose its transition 
approach and quantitative information before adoption.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments
AASB 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Group plans 
to apply AASB 9 initially in its financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2019. AASB 9 replaces AASB 139 Financial 
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial 
instruments, a new ‘expected credit loss model’ for calculating impairment on financial assets and new general hedge accounting 
requirements.

The actual impact of adopting AASB 9 on the Group’s consolidated financial statements is not known and cannot be reliably 
estimated because it will be dependent on the financial instruments that the Group holds, if any, and economic conditions at 
the time as well as accounting elections and judgements that it will make in the future. The new standard will require the Group 
to revise its accounting processes and internal controls related to reporting financial instruments and these changes are not 
yet complete.

The Group consists of the Company and the

Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. We believe that the 
audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s 
responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report section of our report.  

We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the 
ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 
Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the 
Financial Report in Australia. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance 
with the Code.  

Key Audit Matters 

The Key Audit Matter we identified 
was the valuation of goodwill and 
intangibles. 

Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our 
professional judgment, were of most significance in 
our audit of the Financial Report of the current period.  

These matters were addressed in the context of our 
audit of the Financial Report as a whole, and in 
forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a 
separate opinion on these matters.

2017 Annual Report

REPORT TO THE MEMBERS

For the year ended 30 June 2017

Valuation of goodwill and intangibles ($14.1 million) 

Refer to Note C7 to the financial report 

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

A key audit matter for us was the 
Group’s annual testing of goodwill 
and intangible assets for 
impairment given the size of the 
balance (being 30% of total assets).   

Our procedures included: 
•  We considered the appropriateness of the value in 
use method applied by the Group to perform the 
annual impairment testing against the requirements 
of the accounting standards. 

We focused on the significant 
forward-looking assumptions the 
Group applied in their value in use 
models, including forecast cash 
flows, growth rates and discount 
rates. 

The Group uses complex models in 
performing their annual impairment 
testing.  These models use forward 
looking assumptions based on the 
Group’s budgeting and business 
plans and a range of other internal 
and external sources as inputs to 
the assumptions.  Complex 
modelling using forward-looking 
assumptions tend to be prone to 
greater risk for potential bias, error 
and inconsistent application.  These 
conditions necessitate additional 
scrutiny by us, in particular to 
address the objectivity of sources 
used for assumptions, and their 
consistent application. 

We involved valuation specialists to 
supplement  our  senior  audit  team 
members in assessing this key audit 
matter. 

•  We assessed the integrity of the value in use 
models used, including the accuracy of the 
underlying calculation formulas.  

•  We considered the Group’s determination of their 
CGUs based on our understanding of the Group’s 
operations and how independent cash inflows were 
generated, against the requirements of the 
accounting standards. 

•  We compared the forecast cash flows contained in 
the value in use model to Board approved budgets 
and the Group’s business plans.  

•  We assessed the accuracy of previous Group 
forecasts to inform our evaluation of forecasts 
incorporated in the models.  

•  We considered the sensitivity of the models by 

varying key assumptions, such as forecast growth 
rates, terminal growth rates and discount rates, 
within a reasonably possible range, to identify those 
CGUs at higher risk of impairment and to focus our 
further procedures.    

•  We challenged the Group’s significant forecast cash 
flow and growth assumptions using our knowledge 
of the Group, their past performance and our 
understanding of factors impacting the business 
and customers in which the CGUs operate in.   

•  Working with our valuation specialists, we 

independently developed a discount rate range 
considered comparable using publicly available 
market data for comparable entities, adjusted by 
risk factors specific to the CGU and the industry it 
operates in. 

•  We assessed the disclosures in the financial report 
using our understanding obtained from our testing 
and the requirements of the accounting standards.

Other Information 

Other Information is financial and non-financial information in PWR Holdings Limited’s annual 
reporting which is provided in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor's Report.  The 
Directors are responsible for the Other Information.  

The Other Information we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report was the Directors’ 
Report and ASX Additional Information. The Chairman’s Letter and Chief Executive Officer’s 
Report are expected to be included in the Annual Report, and made available to us after the 
date of the Auditor's Report. 

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, we 
do not and will not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with 
the exception of the Remuneration Report and our related assurance opinion. 

In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other 
Information. In doing so, we consider whether the Other Information is materially inconsistent 
with the Financial Report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be 
materially misstated. 

We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other 
Information, and based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we 
obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report we have nothing to report. 

Responsibilities of Directors for the Financial Report

The Directors are responsible for: 

•  preparing the Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian 

Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001; 

• 

implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that 
gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or 
error; and  

•  assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. This includes disclosing, as 

applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of 
accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have 
no realistic alternative but to do so.  

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

Our objective is: 

• 

• 

to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Report as a whole is free from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and  

to issue an Auditor’s Report that includes our opinion.  

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement when it exists. 

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in 
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of 
users taken on the basis of this Financial Report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report is located at 
the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: 
http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_files/ar2.pdf. This description forms part of our Auditor’s 
Report.
