Chairman’s Review
Leveraging our
expertise into
new industries
I am delighted to present to you PWR’s 2021 annual
report.
COVID-19 continued to have an impact on PWR’s business
during FY2021, largely driven by customers reducing or
closing their operations for a period of time and some
relevant sporting events around the globe being cancelled
or postponed. Kees and the PWR team, however, were
agile, focused and passionate about delivering returns to
shareholders and the implementation of plans in pursuit of
our strategic objectives of diversification, efficiency and
building solid foundations. The Board recognises that this
called for extraordinary efforts from the entire workforce
and the Board is deeply grateful to each and every
member of the PWR team for the way they were able to
remain focused on our customers and deliver innovative
and high-quality products, using our advanced technology.
PWR delivered a strong result for the 2021 financial
year, with NPAT of $16.8m up 28.7% on the prior period
(FY2020: $13.1m). The Group continued to deliver on its
strategic objective to build solid foundations through
implementation of its ongoing capital investment program
while still producing a strong return on equity at 26%
(FY2020: 24%).
Cash flows remain strong and together with efficient
working capital management resulted in an EBITDA to
cash conversion ratio of 115% and a strong cash balance
at 30 June 2021 of $19.9m. PWR also repaid the drawn
balance on its multicurrency credit facility with the full
$10 million facility limit available to draw down to support
future operational requirements, if required.
Considering these results and balance sheet position, the
Board has declared a fully franked final dividend of 6.0
cents per share. This takes the total dividend for FY2021 to
8.8 cents per share, an increase of 49.2% on the FY2020
final dividend.
6
During the year, we invested in our people and their
development, leading edge technology and equipment
and our systems and processes. We are committed to
building the solid foundations which will enable PWR to
continue to grow and diversify.
Another strategic priority this year and into the future
is to leverage our motorsport knowledge and expertise
into the aerospace and defence industry. This has taken a
significant step forward with the achievement of AS9100
certification (Rev D). This is an independent endorsement
of the quality of the processes the team has built in-house
to support our growing aerospace and defence segment.
This year, Kees was named the 2021 Australian of the
Year by the Australian Automotive Performance Council
and we could not be more proud. A fitting accolade for
a visionary leader. On behalf of the Board and the PWR
team, we congratulate Kees on a career that has led him
and PWR to be such exceptional representatives of the
Australian Performance Automotive Industry.
Looking ahead, uncertainty is likely to persist for some
time and we expect to face our share of challenges as the
world continues to respond to COVID-19. Shareholders
can be confident that your Board will continue to preserve
our strong balance sheet and focus on creating long-term
value. Kees and his team are passionate and committed
to positioning PWR for further growth and success as we
meet these challenges.
On behalf of your Board, I would like to thank all
shareholders for their continued support of PWR.

cash balance of A$19.9m. We believe we have achieved
a balanced outcome for all stakeholders and expected
future business requirements by declaring a fully franked
final dividend of 6.0 cents per share.
Our EBITDA to cash conversion ratio was 115% and
remains strong.
THE FUTURE
Visibility of our growth potential for the next two to three
years is now better than what we have previously had
which allows us to invest with confidence.
To support growth in FY21, PWR increased the headcount
from 312 to 363. PWR expects continued growth in FY22
and beyond and expects further increase to headcount,
together with a focus on increased productivity and
efficiency.
We continue to review the organisational structure
and employee development to ensure this aligns with
expected operational requirements.
The PWR Team go beyond what is expected of them on
a regular basis and I thank them for the dedication and
commitment which is so often demonstrated.
Thank you to shareholders, customers and staff for your
continued support and I am looking forward to working

call her recently joined other PWR leaders in a
front-line leadership training day and is excited
about her future.
Natarsha Rathmell
“ When I started with PWR in 2015 I had no idea
how much work goes into cooling performance
cars. I never had much of an interest in cars really,
other than when Indy600 came to the Gold Coast
each year. But my mum worked here building
various car radiators and she would come home
and tell me the different car models she’d built
that week, from Landcruisers one day, to Audi
GT3 the next. It all sounded really interesting and
if she enjoyed it, I might too. Now having worked
with PWR for 6 years, I am the team leader for
the transmissions and auxiliary department, and
I’ve worked in so many areas within the main
production department. I have helped with various
components for F1 and am proof that all you
need is a can-do attitude, willingness to learn
and a bit of enthusiasm. You don’t need a degree
or a mechanical mind to progress within such a
large company. I came from working in a petfood
factory to working on cooling products and
performance parts for a range of categories from
aftermarket to motorsport. I have already taken
part in the leadership training and am looking
forward to the direction my career is going.
The food’s not too bad either.”

CASE STUDY
We Support our Schools and Apprentices with Development Opportunities
Our apprenticeship and school work experience programs help PWR to build talent for PWR’s future, while also
giving the trainees the learning opportunities they need to keep moving forward in their careers.
Max Norris has been with PWR since 2018, initially through the PWR School Work Experience Program, Max is
now in his third year of his Fitter and Turner Apprenticeship. Max is already running the 5 Axis CNC machines
worth in excess of $1m.
“ The few years I have worked at PWR thus far has been nothing
short of an exciting, high paced environment that is filled with
a positive atmosphere wherever you go. The abundance of
knowledge that surrounds me and other apprentices is second
to none. For myself to be given the opportunity to operate
world class 5 axis CNC machines and rub shoulders with
talented machinist and programmers so early in my career is
a challenge that I do not take lightly, and with the support of
incredible mentors and management, I am confident in my
abilities as a machinist and constantly eager to learn more.
I am excited for the future of PWR and cannot wait to see
where it can take us next.”

Achievements
Some of the achievements we are proud of are:
We employed 30 apprentices and 16 work experience students this year
We made a conscious decision to recruit for part-time roles that cater for those people with the need to be free
to drop off and pick up their children from school
We invested in leadership training for our supervisors and plan to continue that programme into the future given
the tangible benefits it has already delivered.

HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELLBEING
We care about our employees and are committed to ensuring a safe and healthy workplace.
COVID-19
As the COVID-19 pandemic was with us again during the year, we maintained personal hygiene and social distancing
measures at all sites in line with government and Safe Work Australia guidelines. We have played our part in Australia’s drive
to vaccinate its population against COVID and have given our staff time off to attend COVID vaccination clinics and we pay
for their transport to and from their vaccination appointments.
Employee Wellbeing
At PWR we believe that investing in the well-being of our employees is an investment in PWR’s future.
CASE STUDY
Looking after our People
At PWR we believe in looking after the health and well-being of our people and one way we can do that is
through Weely’s Diner at PWR’s Ormeau manufacturing facility which employs over 270 people.
Weely’s Diner is a state-of-the-art purpose-built canteen that offers free of charge, “home” cooked meals to
our staff at Ormeau in Brisbane. Our head chef Grant, along with Sam and Adrienne serve breakfast, morning
tea and a hot lunch to all of our staff and the occasional visitor who happens to be here at the right time.
Kees Weel, Founder and Managing Director, opened up Weely’s Diner in 2008 as he firmly believes that a well
fed and hydrated workforce is a happier and more productive one. As an added bonus it prompts staff to leave
their workstations and get up from their chairs, stretch, refresh themselves and interact with others - especially
those from other teams or departments where they exchange ideas and return to work rejuvenated.
“ The “Weely’s Diner” represents more than just a financial
saving for me personally as it takes away the stress and time
of having to prepare food for myself every day which is hugely
valuable in my busy lifestyle. Not only is the quality of food
second to none but the diner also gives a great opportunity to
catch up both professionally and personally with colleagues
and is often a highlight of the day.”

Mental Health First Aid Officers
Supporting the mental wellbeing of our employees
is good for everyone and enhances personal
and organisational resilience, and success. We
are proud to have two members of our human
resources team, Amy and Lauren, trained as
mental health first aid officers, giving them skills
to support our employees in times of need.
Amy Kinnane and Lauren Stratton
“ We are very proud to have our Certification
in Mental Health Frist Aid. We are both very
passionate about shining a light on the importance
of Mental Health and the power of not suffering
in silence. We have over 270 staff of all ages and
backgrounds, who spend more time here at work
than they do at home with their families. It is
so important that we are able to support every
single staff member in their physical and mental
wellbeing by giving them support, guidance and
access to professional help when and if they need
it. We want to create an inhouse support network
so no one ever feels like they are alone and know
that just one conversation could save a life.”
Safety
We saw an increase in our Lost Time Injury Frequency
Rate (LTIFR) in 2021 increasing from 3.3 to 5.9, and
have invested in enhancing our internal governance
for health and safety oversight and risks which includes
the establishment of a Health and Safety Committee,
identification and development of associated mitigation
actions for our critical safety risks and undertaking
root cause analysis when a safety or high potential
incidents occur.
There have been no fatalities, fines or prosecutions arising
from safety related breaches across the Group.

COMMUNITY AND STAKEHOLDERS
Our Shareholders
We are committed to engaging with all of our
shareholders and we set a precedent in 2019 when we held
our Annual General Meeting at our manufacturing site at
Ormeau where we provided shareholders with site tours
so they could see first-hand what we do.
Unfortunately COVID prevented that from happening in
2020 and we held a virtual AGM where we did our best
to communicate with our shareholders. We are hopeful
to hold the 2021 Annual General meeting at our Ormeau
manufacturing site, offer site tours and interact on a
personal level with our shareholders, COVID permitting.
We invested in upgrading our website which includes our
investor portal so shareholders have quick access to key
reports, announcements, share price and governance
policies.
Our Customers
When entering into a relationship with our customers,
PWR does not limit the service to the sale of product,
but instead partners with the customer to understand
their project objectives, engaging PWR’s Engineering
Centre of Excellence and utilising PWR’s expertise in
advanced technology to quickly develop unique cooling
solutions that are right for the customer’s application.
Building upon PWR’s extensive capability from design
conception through to project delivery and validation,
this collaborative approach often extends as far as having
customers, including the world’s premier Formula 1 teams,
work on-site alongside PWR engineering and production
staff to optimise their cooling solutions.

Sustainability

Community Support
PWR’s employees are active participants in the community and foster a healthy sense of competitive tension in the
workplace through participation in a number of community initiatives. This year we participated in and raised money
for the Great Cycle Challenge (kids fighting cancer), Movember, Shave for a Cure and held gold coin donation lunches
for community causes such as drought relief and bushfires and raised over $5,000.
OUR CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND RISK MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
The Corporate Governance statement of the Group is available through the Group website and is also released to the
ASX as part of our annual reporting. The Corporate Governance statement adopted by the Board reflects the Board’s
endorsement and adoption of the recommendations contained in the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Principles
and Recommendations.
Risk management is fundamental to maximising the value of our business and informing PWR’s strategic direction.
We believe that effective risk management enables us to identify priorities, allocate resources, demonstrate due diligence
in discharging legal and regulatory obligations, and meet the standards and expectations of our stakeholders.
PWR’s risk management approach is a structured process to identify potential threats to the success of the business, and
defines the risk appetite and strategy for eliminating or minimising the impact of these risks.
We particularly focus on strategic and material risks and PWR is committed to ensuring that risk management is regarded
as an essential element in our management processes with linkages to every aspect of our business including development
of existing business, expansion into new markets, relationships with major customers and suppliers and our treasury and
capital management activities.
See below for summary of our material risks and how we manage them:
Protecting the health, safety and wellbeing of our people
PWR’s DNA calls out respect.
Respect for our employees
and respect for each other.
We strive to ensure that a
culture of respect promotes
a safe workplace where
everyone goes home safe
every day. We also believe
that providing our employees
with health and wellbeing
opportunities supports a
happier, healthier, more
productive workforce and
workplace.
We have identified and regularly talk about our critical safety risks.
We investigate the root cause of all safety incidents, identify key learnings and talk
about them in our toolbox talks.
We are continuously improving our working environments to make them safer and
more productive for our people.
We have set up an Employee Assistance Program to help employees deal with life’s
challenges by giving them and their families free access to professionals who can
provide them with strategies to minimise stress and manage their mental health.
We have two qualified mental health first aid officers at PWR’s Ormeau
manufacturing facility.
Managing the challenges that come with rapid growth
PWR has worked hard to get
where we are and have grown
our business year on year but
with this comes challenge.
The challenge of managing
and communicating with
a larger workforce, more
workload, the need for
more factory space, better
systems and processes, more
customers and new advances
in technology, to name a few.
16
We seek to address this risk through one of our strategic objectives –
Solid Foundations.
First and foremost we need to stay focused on our people at all times, no matter
how demanding our business growth becomes - because our people are responsible
for driving our growth. We have invested in a highly capable human resource area to
provide the extra support and focus required.
With growth comes change and maintaining open channels of communication with
our people is essential. We are committed to ensuring each and every employee
understands our vision and purpose and their role in helping to deliver them.
We are focused on ensuring we have robust systems and processes that facilitate
knowledge transfer for the production of our many products. When everyone
follows a well-tested set of steps, we reduce the likelihood of mistakes, delays
and duplicated effort.
We are investing in a new Enterprise Resource Planning system that will support
PWR’s business for years to come.
Annual Report 2021 PWR Holdings Limited
Protecting our intellectual property and managing cyber security risks
Protection of PWR’s
intellectual property and
that of our customers is
paramount.
We have undertaken an independent external review of our IT and potential cyber
security exposures and have subsequently implemented all recommendations arising
from this review. On completion of the implementation of the recommendations,
a further independent external assessment was completed to test and confirm the
effectiveness of cyber security robustness.
We have strict confidentiality procedures in place when developing new technology.
We operate restricted areas within our manufacturing sites and do not permit phones
on the factory floor.
Talent identification, recruitment and retention
Our ability to identify,
attract and retain key talent
and develop capabilities is
fundamental to delivering
our strategic objectives.
Diversifying our business
Our objective is to
leverage our research and
development and success in
providing cooling solutions
to motorsport into other
industries where we can use
our know-how and add value.
We focus on enhancing our offerings to employees and potential employees to
distinguish ourselves in the market through targeted and effective approaches to
talent and recruitment management.
We focus on succession planning and we identify key talent and provide them with
experience and growth through time in critical roles and identify relevant external
training for their skills development.
We continue to improve our long-term workforce planning and talent management
program across PWR.
We invest in our leaders to support their skills in leading and managing their teams.
We keep our strategy front of mind as it informs the decisions, we make about
leveraging our existing cooling solutions into new industries.
We regularly evaluate our strategic objectives with the Board.
We have a dedicated advanced technology team focused on building a pipeline
of opportunities.
We strategically invest in leading edge manufacturing technology.
We invested in securing AS9100 accreditation (aerospace and defence quality
standard) and are working towards other important certifications.
Maintaining our leading edge through innovation and advanced technology
Technology and innovation
are advancing at a rapid
pace and we pride ourselves
at being at the forefront of
technology advances in the
field of cooling however
it requires continued
investment and focus and
falling behind is not an option.
We are continuously investing in research and development.
We adopt quality control approaches in everything we do and use advanced
technology to problem solve for customers.
We introduced capability for serialisation of products including full traceability
of components and raw materials used in the production process back to raw
material source.
We attend trade shows and keep up to date with the latest advances in technology.
OUR RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Although the PWR Group is not subject to any significant environmental regulations, the Group manages environmental
aspects and impacts through its ISO 14001 compliant management system.
The Group is focussed on environmental management by:
– ensuring exhaust gases generated in the manufacturing process are removed via activated compounds prior to being
released into the environment
– recycling raw materials, cardboard and office materials
– disposal of wastes and hazardous materials in accordance with government regulations.
RECYCLING
At PWR, aluminium is used almost exclusively in the production of our high-performance cooling solutions. This material
is abundant, easy to fabricate and one of the most widely recycled materials. During the 2020-2021 financial year we
recycled 181 tonnes of aluminium, up 11% on that recycled in 2019-20.
17
Operating and financial review
The operating and financial results for the year ended 30 June 2021 have been impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak which
is discussed in more detail below.
COVID–19
This significant public health issue has impacted the full year results of the Group with customers either reducing their
operations or closing them for a period of time. In addition, sporting events globally, including motorsport, were stopped
for a period of time in FY20 and FY21 and have since resumed on a full or modified program.
The impact on the business of this uncertainty has been partly mitigated by Federal Government initiatives in Australia
and the USA. In Australia, PWR Performance Products Pty Ltd was an eligible employer for the JobKeeper program. This
program commenced in April 2020 and continued until 27 September 2020.
The Group has not restated or separately identified any aspect of its results for the impact of COVID-19 other than
disclosing the actual benefits received or due from the Australian Federal Government JobKeeper program for FY20 and
FY21, and the USA Federal Government Pay Check Protection Program for FY20. The UK Government furlough scheme
was immaterial to the Group results due to the small number of eligible staff employed at PWR Europe Ltd.

facility limit available to draw down to support operational requirements if required.

Annual Report 2021 PWR Holdings LimitedRevenue
The Group achieved overall revenue growth of 20.5% compared to the prior corresponding period. Organic revenue
increased by 25.7% but was offset by unfavourable exchange rate movements of (5.2%).
The above growth was primarily driven by third party sales out of the United States of America, United Kingdom and Australia,
where sales grew 64.2%, 10.3% and 17.2% respectively. 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)
Exchange rate movements saw the GBP being 2.7% stronger at 30 June 2021 and the US dollar being (9.6%) weaker
compared to the prior period. In contrast, average rates during the financial year saw the GBP (4.1%) weaker and the US dollar
(11.2%) weaker than the prior period.
The net impact of exchange rate movements had an unfavourable impact on revenue for the year of ($3.40m) (FY20:
favourable $2.58m).
EBITDA
Despite the negative impact on revenue of foreign exchange rate movements, EBITDA in FY21 compared to the prior
corresponding period was stronger mainly due to:
– Solid revenue growth across the motorsports, OEM, automotive aftermarket and emerging technologies sectors;
– Production costs control;
– Benefits from the JobKeeper program; and
– Administration and overhead costs increasing at a lower rate than sales and EBITDA.

Operating and financial review

Net profit after tax
Net profit after tax of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2021 was $16.80 million (FY20: $13.05 million).
Operating cash flow
The Group continued its strong cash conversion rate with FY21 operating cash flow (excluding change in working capital,
interest and tax) of $33.2 million, a conversion of 115% from EBITDA.
Foreign currency
The Group is exposed to movements in foreign exchange rates, with consolidated revenue generated in various currencies
(using average exchange rates through the reporting period) as outlined below:

Balance sheet management
The balance sheet remains strong with cash of $19.9 million (FY20: $20.8 million).
Working capital utilisation has improved from 128 days at 30 June 2020 to 66 days at 30 June 2021 due largely to a
reduction in stock turnover days.
Capital expenditure for the year was $10.4 million (FY20: $7.8 million). Our strong balance sheet can support ongoing
expected capital expenditure for potential future growth opportunities whilst still having access to available and unused
financing facilities.
With the solid working capital position, expected future capital investment requirements and the ongoing strong
contribution of EBITDA to operating cash flows, the Board has declared a final 2021 dividend of 6.00 cents per share
bringing the total dividend to 8.80 cents per share.
Review of operating segments
The Group has two operating segments, PWR Performance Products which comprises its Australian and European operations,
and PWR North America which comprises its C&R USA operations.
The PWR Performance Products segment generated external revenue of $54.9 million (FY20: $50.2 million), The increase was
due to the recovery of customer operations post the initial impact of COVID-19.
The C&R segment generated external revenue of $24.3 million (FY20: $15.6 million). This is a strong result resulting from
increased sales from the OEM, Automotive Aftermarket and Emerging Technology sectors.
The carrying value of goodwill and trademarks is assessed on an ongoing basis to ensure these are not impaired. This assessment
has been performed at 30 June 2021 and using currently available information has resulted in the current values continuing to
be recognised.
20
Annual Report 2021 PWR Holdings LimitedReview of principal businesses
During the year ended 30 June 2021, in addition to the items outlined above, the Group:
– Enhanced our new micro matrix and cold plate technology product offerings;
– Increased supplies into new industries including aerospace and defence; and
– Increased employee headcount to expand capacity to delivery on new and potential contracts.
Significant changes in the state of affairs
Other than as outlined in the operating and financial review, there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the
Group during the year.

pursue opportunities with emerging technologies in existing and new markets and categories 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 2021 ordinary dividend of 6.00 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 2021.
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. ROUNDING OF AMOUNTS
The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations Instrument 2016/191 issued by the Australian Securities and
Investment Commission, relating to the “rounding off” of amounts in the Directors’ Report. Amounts in the Directors’
Report have been rounded off in accordance with that Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars unless otherwise stated.

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 performed certain other services in addition to the audit and review of the
financial statements.
The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor and in accordance with written
advice provided by resolution of the audit committee, is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services during
the year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the
Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
– all non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Group and have been
reviewed by the audit committee to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and
– the non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own
work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for the Group, acting as an advocate for the Group or jointly
sharing risks and rewards.
Details of the amounts paid to the auditor of the Group, KPMG, and its network firms for audit and non-audit services
provided during the year are set out below.

Remuneration Report
for the year ended 30 June 2021
1. LETTER FROM CHAIRMAN OF THE NOMINATION AND REMUNERATION COMMITTEE
Dear Shareholders,
On behalf of the Board, I’m pleased to present the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2021.
This report seeks to describe, in a simple and transparent way, our approach to remunerating Executive key management
personnel (Executive KMP) and the key principles that underpin our Pay for Performance Framework, as well as
remuneration for our Non-Executive Directors.
Short-term incentive
The intent of the Short-Term Incentive (STI) is to focus our Executive KMP on what they can influence in the performance
year. For the STI to be activated for Executive KMP, they have to meet the STI Gate established by the Board. If PWR
exceeds the STIP Gate, this unlocks a greater STI amount for Executive KMP and forms the basis of a stretch target. This
is a key feature of the STI Plan that assists the Board in aligning the creation of shareholder value with actual company
performance. The STI Gate is a financial measure linked to budgeted EBIT or NPAT. Depending on whether the gate is met
or exceeded, the Corporate Scorecard which sets out a number of key performance indicators (KPIs) that focus Executive
KMP and other STI Plan participants on areas that align to growth, safety and product quality. The more the STI Gate is
exceeded, the more of the Corporate Scorecard is unlocked.
As outlined in more detail on page 41, the Company fell slightly short of the STI gate and accordingly Executive KMP did
not earn STIs for the year ended 30 June 2021. This was disappointing given the significant effort and contribution they
made during the reporting period for which I and my fellow directors sincerely thank them.
Long-term incentive
The LTI is the component of Executive KMP remuneration most closely linked to the shareholder experience as it rewards
Executive KMP for delivery of returns to shareholders that exceed peer benchmarks over a three-year period.
The LTI has two performance hurdles and a service condition that are assessed at the end of a 3-year performance period.
For LTI grant in FY2021, the Board modified the EPS hurdle so going forward the performance hurdles for the LTIP are
compound growth in Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Total Shareholder Return (TSR) benchmarked against the ASX 300
(excluding Energy sector (oil, gas and coal)). The modified EPS hurdle aligns more closely with shareholders’ interests and
participants now need to demonstrate a compound annual growth rate for EPS over the 3-year performance period in
excess of 10% for all rights linked to that hurdle to vest.
Long-term incentive | vesting
Just as shareholders have been rewarded by the increase in PWR’s share price, Executive KMP were rewarded by the
increase in value of their performance rights and their ultimate LTI vesting outcome during the reporting period with the
exception of the Managing Director who elects not to participants in the LTIP given his significant shareholding.
At the end of June 2020, following a 3-year performance period:
– PWR ranked at the 90th percentile for Total Shareholder Return (TSR) for the performance period for the FY2018
performance rights (1 July 2017 to 30 June 2020) when compared to the benchmark group of ASX 300 (excluding
Energy sector (oil, gas and coal))
– our EPS hurdle for the FY2018 performance rights was measured by the growth in EPS from FY2018 (base year) to the
end of the third year of the Performance Period (FY2020). The EPS growth rate was 40.5%, a compound growth rate
of 12%
As a result, 100% of the FY2018 performance rights vested on 1 September 2020 and provided the Executives an
equivalent number of PWR shares.

for the year ended 30 June 2021
1. LETTER FROM CHAIRMAN OF THE NOMINATION AND REMUNERATION COMMITTEE (continued)
Looking forward
The Board has confidence in the integrity of the Pay for Performance Framework and believes it incorporates the
necessary flexibility to continue to balance rewarding our Executive KMP for performance and recognising the interests
of shareholders, however we plan to engage a remuneration consultant to undertake a review of our framework in FY2022
and will report the outcomes of this review to shareholders in our FY2022 remuneration report.
Executives who report to the Managing Director will not receive an increase to Fixed Remuneration in FY2022 and Fees
for the Non-Executive Directors will also remain unchanged in FY2022. The Managing Director received a 9% increase in
TFR to bring it closer to the median of the benchmark.
Our Corporate Scorecard for FY2022 will continue to focus our Executive KMP and people they lead on our business
priorities including implementing controls to keep our people safe and well, growing our emerging technology business,
maintaining exceptional product quality and improving productivity.
In what continues to be an extraordinary time, managing the impact of COVID-19, I wish to thank our shareholders for their
continued support.
Sincerely,

4. PWR’S PAY FOR PERFORMANCE FRAMEWORK
The pages of the Remuneration Report that follow (together with Table 1 PWR Group’s Historical Performance) have been
prepared in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Act) and audited as required by section
308(3C) of the Act. These sections relate to those persons who were KMP of PWR during FY21, being the Executive KMP
named on page 23 and the Non-Executive Directors of PWR named on page 22.
4.1 Remuneration Governance
The Board is accountable for establishing the remuneration policies and framework for the PWR Group and ensuring
remuneration of the Managing Director and Senior Executives is fair and reasonable and aligned with the interests of
shareholders. Outlined below is the Board’s framework for remuneration governance:
Board
Nomination and
Remuneration
Committee (NRC)
The Board is responsible for setting remuneration policy and determining Non-Executive Director,
Managing Director and Executive remuneration. In addition, the Board is responsible for approving
all key performance indicators and performance hurdles set under the Executive KMP variable
remuneration framework, being the Short Term Incentive Plan (STIP) and the Long Term Incentive
Plan (LTIP). The Board delegates responsibility to the Nomination and Remuneration Committee
(NRC) for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board on these matters. The Board
retains full discretion to decrease or increase outcomes to ensure that they are fair and reasonable.
It can use this discretion to decrease or increase the outcome as it considers appropriate. The
Board has regular contact with each of the Executive KMP during the year.
The NRC makes recommendations to the Board regarding all aspects of Executive KMP
remuneration. This includes making recommendations in relation to the targets to be included in
the STIP (both the financial and non-financial) and in relation to setting performance hurdles that
attach to Performance Rights under the LTIP. The Group’s Managing Director provides updates and
makes recommendations to the NRC on these matters in relation to his direct reports throughout
the year. To inform the Board and NRC, and to assist with their decision-making processes,
additional information and data is sought from management and remuneration consultants, as
required. The NRC Charter sets out further information regarding the Committee’s objectives
and role.

Responsibility for
determining NED
remuneration
The Board is responsible for assessing Non-Executive Director (NED) fees, assisted by the NRC.
Shareholders approve the total NED remuneration cap. Shareholders have approved a cap of
$750,000 per annum. Reviews of NED Board and Committee fees are carried out periodically with
assistance of independent benchmarking reports and/or consultants.
Managing Director Our Managing Director makes recommendations to the NRC regarding Executives and how the
Pay for Performance Policy and framework applies to all our employees.

Consultants
Godfrey Remuneration Group Pty Limited (GRG) provided advice on the Termination Benefit Limit
and how it applied to a member of the Executive KMP of the Company. GRG was paid $2,000 +
GST for the advice.
4.2 Pay for Performance Remuneration Principles
The guiding principles governing PWR’s Pay for Performance Policy and how we implement them are summarised in the
table below:
How we meet these principles
Remuneration will incorporate
external market reference
to maintain market
competitiveness
We periodically undertake remuneration benchmarking using
independent renumeration consultants to maintain market
competitiveness and ensure our reward supports PWR in
both attracting and retaining key talent.
Guiding Principles
Attract and Retain
Pay Executives for
Performance that
Delivers Value to
Shareholders
Make clear the line of sight
between performance and
reward to ensure that superior
performance is recognised
and rewarded, with a view to
driving long-term growth and
shareholder value
We set key performance indicators that have stretch
targets, evidenced by improvement over and above actual
results achieved from the prior year or specifically linked
to achievement of an outcome linked to our strategic
objectives.
We also ensure our reward outcomes are aligned to
performance by providing a significant part of Executive
KMP’s ‘at risk” remuneration on achieving both financial and
non-financial measures
We align short term and long term performance measures to
our strategy and vision. This includes a focus on PWR being
a safe place to work, ensuring our reputation for quality
products is maintained, achieving key strategic priorities and
achieving leading total shareholder returns.
PWR’s DNA is at the centre of how we work together to
deliver on our goals.
Internal equity is achieved partly through external
benchmarking and internally moderating performance
assessments across the business.
The Board maintains ultimate discretion under PWR’s
incentive plans to make awards or not and all awards are
subject to consideration of the Company’s ability to pay.
We attempt to report in a transparent manner on the link
between reward and performance under our incentive
schemes and outline the governance process to give
confidence to our shareholders.
Promote Internal
Fairness and Equity
Always Consider
PWR’s Capacity to Pay
Build Trust by
Promoting
Transparency
Provide fair, consistent
and internally equitable
reward to appropriately
compensate employees
for their contributions and
performance outcomes
Manage the balance between
reward funding and Company
performance / financial
outcomes
Ensure a level of transparency
and clarity in reward design
and governance processes –
4.3. Pay for Performance Framework
The remuneration framework for Executive KMP comprises two elements:
1. Fixed remuneration, and
2. Performance linked or “at risk” remuneration (short and long term components).
37
Remuneration Report
for the year ended 30 June 2021
4. PWR’S PAY FOR PERFORMANCE FRAMEWORK (continued)
4.3.1. Fixed Remuneration
Fixed remuneration is set with reference to the median of PWR’s peers and is a function of size and complexity of the role,
individual responsibilities, experience, skills and market remuneration levels. This consists of cash salary, salary sacrifice
items, employer superannuation, annual leave provisions and any fringe benefits tax charges related to employee benefits.
The opportunity to salary sacrifice benefits on a tax-compliant basis is available.
The Board determines an appropriate level of fixed remuneration for the Executive KMP following recommendations from
the NRC. The NRC has the delegated authority from the Board to engage independent remuneration consultants as it
sees fit.
Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually following performance reviews at the end of the financial year and takes into
account the Executive KMP’s role and accountabilities, relevant market benchmarks and attraction, retention and
motivation of Executives in the context of the overall market.
4.3.2. Short Term Incentive Plan (STIP) - at risk
The Executive KMP are eligible to participate in the Group’s short-term incentive plan.
STIP Design
Under the STIP, Executive KMP have an opportunity to receive an annual cash bonus calculated as a percentage of their
total fixed remuneration (TFR). There are three components to the STIP:
1. STIP Gate
2. Company Scorecard (financial and non-financial KPIs at a company level)
3.
Personal Scorecard (financial and non-financial KPIs at a business unit\personal level together with demonstration of
PWR’s DNA)
Figure 3 Operation of STIP for Executive KMP, presents a diagrammatic representation of the mechanics of the STIP with
targeted STIP being up to 55% of maximum and stretch components providing up to 100% of maximum STIP opportunity.

4. PWR’S PAY FOR PERFORMANCE FRAMEWORK (continued)
Personal Scorecard
At the beginning of the performance period, the Board establishes personal KPIs for the Managing Director and the Managing
Director recommends personal KPIs for the Executives for Board approval. Personal KPIs represent 40% of the maximum
potential cash bonus payable to the Executive KMP and for payment to be made against these KPIs, the STI gate must have been
met. If the STIP gate is not met, irrespective of whether the KPIs have been achieved, they attract no cash payment.
4.3.3. Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) – at risk
The Executive KMP are eligible to participate in the Group’s long term incentive plan.
The LTIP is an equity-based incentive designed to provide participants with the incentive to deliver growth in shareholder value.
Performance Rights
Executive KMP are invited by the Board to apply for performance rights (“Rights”) on an annual basis under the LTIP.
Performance Period
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.
Performance Hurdles
The performance hurdles for the Rights granted in FY2021 are:
– 50% of the rights will vest upon the achievement of Total Shareholder Return (TSR) ranking criteria relative to the TSR
of constituents of the S&P/ASX300 (excluding Energy sector (oil, gas and coal)). TSR is calculated by an independent
third party, comparing the TSR percentile rank that PWR holds relative to the benchmark group for the relevant 3-year
performance period.
TSR Ranking (TSR)
TSR is 50% or less
TSR is more than 50% but less than 75%
TSR is 75% or more
Vesting outcome
Nil vesting
Pro rata vesting
100% vesting
– 50% of the rights will vest based on compound growth in annual Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) relative to a target set by
the Board. Vesting is determined by the compound annual growth rate in EPS over the 3-year Performance Period
measured against specific EPS targets.
Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Vesting outcome
Compound annual growth rate of EPS <4%
Nil vesting
Compound annual growth rate of EPS ≥4% to ≤ 10%
Pro rata vesting
Compound annual growth rate of EPS >10%
100% vesting
The EPS hurdle for the FY2021 Rights is different to that attached to Rights granted in prior financial years. The Board,
following feedback from some shareholders, changed the hurdle from an EPS growth rate to compound annual growth
rate over the 3-year performance period. The revised EPS hurdle applies to Rights granted from FY2021 onwards.
Service Condition
Participants must remain continually employed with the Company until the date of 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 may be forfeited and lapse unless the Board in its
discretion determines otherwise. Rights do not entitle holders to dividends that are declared during the vesting period.

3.
Stuart Smith ceased employment on 23 April 2021. The Board exercised its discretion to award an amount equivalent to Mr Smith’s STI for FY2021
which was paid out on cessation of employment. He was not granted any performance rights under the LTIP in FY2021. Refer to Table 12 for the vesting
of performance rights during the reporting period.
4.5. FY2021 STIP Outcomes
4.5.1. STIP Gate
The gate for the STIP for FY2021 was the NPAT target established by the Board. If the STIP gate is met, the FY2021
Company Scorecard is then assessed with the outcome making up 25% of the maximum attributed to the Company
Scorecard. An increasing amount of STIP is available depending on by how much the STIP gate is exceeded. In FY2021, the
NPAT had to be exceeded by 5% to receive 50% entitlement, by 10% to receive 75% entitlement and 15% to receive 100%
entitlement to the Company Scorecard outcome.
The NPAT gate was not met for FY2021.
At the beginning of the reporting period, the Board established Company KPIs which together formed the Company
Scorecard. Subject to the STIP gate being met or exceeded the Company Scorecard accounts for up to 60% of the
maximum potential cash bonus payable to Executive KMP. Corporate KPIs on the Company Scorecard align interest and
performance at a Group level and to be achieved require strategic thinking, collaboration, and business wide leadership
which ultimately improves both short and long term shareholder value.
Notwithstanding that the STIP gate was not met, for transparency an assessment of Corporate KPIs is outlined below:

6. REMUNERATION OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS DURING REPORTING PERIOD
6.1. NED Remuneration Policy
Non-Executive Directors receive remuneration for undertaking their role. They do not participate in the Group’s incentive
plans nor receive any variable remuneration. Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to retirement payments.
The objective of the 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.
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.
6.2. NED Remuneration
The following table sets out the remuneration rates for Non-Executive Directors through annual Board and Committee
fees (inclusive of superannuation) during the reporting period.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2021 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, testing, production, validation and sale of customised 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 (AASB) 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 Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191

(b) Functional and presentation currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.
(c) 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 Notes B3
(Government grants) and C6 (Intangible assets).
A3 Significant accounting policies

SECTION B BUSINESS PERFORMANCE
B1 Operating segments
The Group has two strategic divisions, which are its operating segments. These divisions offer similar products and
services, but are managed separately because they require different technology, apply contrasting marketing strategies
and cater to different markets.
The following summary describes the operations of each reportable segment.
Operating segments
Operations
PWR Performance Products
PWR North America
Designing and manufacturing high end racing products, OEM products, Emerging
Technology products, and automotive aftermarket products for non-USA markets.
Designing and manufacturing racing and OEM and Emerging Technology products
primarily for the USA market. The PWR North America segment had previously been
referred to as C&R with the composition of this segment remaining the same.
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.

SECTION C OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (continued)
Impairment
For impairment testing, 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 2022 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 estimated impact of COVID-19 and other factors on
each CGU’s financial performance.
For the PWR North American CGU, the cashflow projections include management’s estimate of the expected growth from
PWR North America’s involvement in OEM programs as a cooling assembly supplier, growth in Emerging Technologies, as
well as growth into the automotive aftermarket.
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. Given the uncertainties in respect to the
volatility in capital markets.
Management have considered sensitivities to the recoverable amount. The sensitivities applied includes a decrease in
revenue of 10% for FY22 with revenue returning to forecast from FY23 onwards to determine the recoverable amount.
Whilst headroom would reduce, the recoverable amount of each CGU would exceed the base value carrying amount.
Key assumptions used in the estimation of value in use over the five year period including the terminal value were:
PWR Performance Products
Discount rate – pre tax
Terminal value growth rate
Revenue – compound annual growth rate
Average EBITDA margin
PWR North America
Discount rate – pre tax
Terminal value growth rate

D3 Share based payments
During the year the Board granted performance rights to employees under the terms of the Performance Rights Plan
(the Plan) approved 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 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 2020 to 30 June 2023.
27,599 (2020: 46,486) 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. At 30 June 2021, all of these performance
rights remain on issue.
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 $400,899 (2020: $330,000) was recognised during the year and included
in “employee expenses” in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
The EPS performance hurdle for the performance rights issued during the year is based on the compound annual growth
rate in EPS. The EPS performance hurdle for performance rights issued in prior years is based on the three year growth in
EPS. At 30 June 2021, there were 54,660 performance rights that had been issued in prior years that are subject to the
three year growth in EPS performance hurdle.
Measurement of fair values
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. The inputs
used in the measurement of the fair values at grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments were as follows:
Fair value at grant date
Share price at grant date
Exercise price
Expected volatility
Risk free rate
Expected life
Expected dividends

The Group’s tax losses recognised as a deferred tax asset arise from its US operations. Management considers that based
on the Group’s plans for this business, it is probable that future taxable profits will be generated against which the tax
losses can be recovered.

expiry of the non-cancellable contract period. Where practicable, the Group seeks to include extension options in new
leases to provide operational flexibility and certainty. Extension options held are exercisable only by the Group and not by
the lessors.
The Group assesses at the lease commencement dates whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the extension options.
The Group reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the options if there is a significant event or significant
changes in circumstances within its control.
Other commitments
At 30 June 2021, the Group had agreed to purchase plant and equipment for $3.3 million (2020: $4.9 million) within
12 months.

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 managing 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.
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 $19,857,387 at 30 June 2021 (2020: $20,804,705), 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 A 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. Management’s analysis of customer credit risk has
considered the estimated impact of COVID-19 on the economic environment and its assessment of expected credit losses.
No impairment losses were recognised in respect of trade and other receivables during the year (2020: 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: (refer Note F1)
– A$10,000,000 foreign currency advance facility (multicurrency);
– A$7,500,000 asset finance facility;
– A$100,000 corporate credit card facility; and
– USD$100,000 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.
Under the Group’s financial risk management policies, the Group may use derivative financial instruments to manage
its foreign currency risks. At 30 June 2021, the Group had entered into participating forward contracts to manage its
exposure to sales denominated in GBP. These contracts, which settle monthly until 30 December 2021, have a total
notional amount of £3.9 million (2020: £1.15 million) and have been accounted for at fair value through the profit and loss.
The fair value at year end was a liability of $54,240 (2020: $105,123 asset).
During the year ended 30 June 2021, the Group recognised $202,892 in realised gains (2020: $172,362 gain) and
$563,280 in unrealised losses on derivatives (2020: $288,506 loss). This has been included in finance income or costs in
the income statement.

Sensitivity analysis
At 30th June, exchange rates used to translate the above were 0.5426 to the GBP and 0.7512 to the USD (2020: 0.5579
to the GBP and 0.6854 to the USD). 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 2020, using consistent foreign exchange rate variances, as indicated below.

The Board declared a fully franked final ordinary dividend of 6.00 cents per share. The financial effect of the 2021 declared
final dividend has not been brought to account in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021.
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

H5 New accounting standards
Changes in accounting policies -new standards and interpretations adopted
The accounting policies applied in these financial statements are the same as those applied in the Group’s consolidated
financial statements as at and for the year ended 30 June 2020. A number of other new standards are effective from
1 July 2020 but they do not have a material effect on the Group’s financial statements.
In April 2021, the International Financial Reporting Standards Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) issued a final agenda
decision, Configuration or Customisation Costs in a Cloud Computing Arrangement. The decision discusses whether
configuration or customisation expenditure relating to Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) arrangements is able to be
recognised as an intangible asset and if not, over what time period the expenditure is expensed. The Group has adopted
this agenda decision within the financial statements.
The Group has not extensively utilised SaaS arrangements and the historical accounting policy has been to expense all such
costs in the profit or loss over the period in which the service is received. The adoption of this agenda decision has not
impacted the financial statements of the Group.
New Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2021
reporting and have not been early adopted by the Group.
The most significant of these to the Group are AASB 2020-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards –
Annual Improvements and Other Amendments, and AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards –
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current.
The Group has not yet considered the estimated impact that these Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards will
have on its consolidated financial statements.

SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1 Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to,
variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the
entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which
control commences until the date on which control ceases.
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are
eliminated.
2 Foreign currency
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Groups’ 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 transaction or balance 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 consolidated 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 (AUD) 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.
3 Revenue
Sale of goods
For the sale of manufactured products, revenue is recognised at the point in time that the performance obligation is
satisfied which is generally on shipment of the goods to the customer from the Group’s warehouse.
Rendering of services
For services, including wind tunnel testing and freight, revenue is recognised over time as those services are provided.
4 Employee benefits
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.

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.
5 Finance income and finance costs
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 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.
6 Income Tax
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 considers 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 a series of 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 as 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.

Inventories
7
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.
8 Property, plant and equipment
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
2021
2020
2-10 years
2-10 years
4-6 years
4-6 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.
9 Intangible assets and goodwill
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.

for the year ended 30 June 2021
SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Research and development
Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred. Concessional tax benefits and incentives receivable are
recognised as other income based on an estimate of the eligible research and development expenditure incurred during
the financial year. Costs incurred on development projects are recognised as intangible assets only when it is probable that
a project will, after assessment of its commercial and technical feasibility, be completed and generate future economic
benefits and can be measured reliably.
Impairment of 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.
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 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 are 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.
10 Share capital
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.
11 Provisions
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 most of the liability over the next year.

for the year ended 30 June 2021
SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
12 Leases
Leased assets
Assets held by the Group under finance 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. After initial recognition, the assets are accounted for in
accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.
Assets held under other leases are recognised in the Group’s statement of financial position under AASB16. These assets
are classified as right-of-use assets and are presented as property, plant and equipment. Further information about the
right-of-use assets is included in Note C5 – Property, Plant and Equipment.
AASB 16 Leases
The Group, as a lessee, assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. Under AASB 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease
if the contract conveys a right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The Group recognises right of use assets and lease liabilities for most leases – i.e. these leases are on-balance sheet.
However, the Group has elected not to recognise right of use assets and lease liabilities for some leases of low-value
assets. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over
the lease term.
The Group recognises a right of use asset and a right of use lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right
of use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease
payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to
dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any
lease incentives received.
The right of use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line and/or diminishing value basis from the
commencement date to the end of the lease term. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease
payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that
rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. The Group uses its incremental borrowing rate
as the discount rate.
The lease liability is subsequently increased by the interest cost on the lease liability and decreased by lease payments
made. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, a change
in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or as appropriate, changes in the
assessment of whether a purchase or extension option is reasonably certain to be exercised or a termination option is
reasonably certain not to be exercised.
Where applicable, the Group has applied some judgement to determine the lease term for some lease contracts which
include renewal options or terminations. The assessment of whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise such
options impacts the lease term, which affects the amount of lease liabilities and right-of-use asset.

13 Financial instruments
Non-derivative financial instruments
Trade and other receivables are initially recognised as fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost less
impairment. Trade receivables are due for settlement no more than 30-60 days from the date of recognition.
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. 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.
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. After 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. After 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.
Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value. Any directly attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss
as they are incurred. After initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally
recognised in profit or loss.
14 Fair value measurements
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for any derivative financial
instruments which are recognised at fair value.
‘Fair value’ is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the most advantageous market to which the
Group has access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk.
Several of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and
non-financial assets and liabilities.
When one is available, the Group measures the fair value using the quoted price in an active market for that asset or
liability. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and
volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. When an active market is not available, the Group uses
observable market data as far as possible.
Further information about the methods and assumptions made in determining fair values for measurement and/or
disclosure purposes is included in the following notes:
– Note I13 – financial instruments
– Note D3 – share based payments.
15 Government Grants
Government grants related to assets are initially recognised as deferred income at fair value when received. They are then
recognised in profit or loss as other income on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset to which the grant relates.
Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the
periods in which the expenses are recognised.

Members of PWR Holdings Limited
for the year ended 30 June 2021
Valuation of goodwill and intangible assets $14.9m
Refer to Note C6 to the Financial Report
The key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
Our procedures included:
• We considered the appropriateness of the
value in use methods applied by the Group
to perform the annual impairment testing of
goodwill and intangible assets against the
requirements of the accounting standards.
• We, along with our valuation specialists,
assessed the integrity of the value in use
models used, including the accuracy of the
underlying calculation formulas.
• We compared the forecast cash flows
contained in the value in use models to
Board approved budgets and the Group’s
business plans.
• We assessed the accuracy of previous
Group budgets to inform our evaluation
of forecasts incorporated in the
models.
• We considered the sensitivity of the models
by varying key assumptions, such as
forecast cash flows, forecast growth rates
and discount rates, within a reasonably
possible range. We did this 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 rate assumptions
including PWR NA’s ability to convert OEM and
emerging technology opportunities, and market
uncertainties associated with COVID-19. We
used our knowledge of the Group, their past
performance and our understanding of factors
impacting the business and customers in which
the CGUs operate in. We used the Group’s
recent performance to inform our assessment
of the Group’s recovery from COVID-19.
• 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 Group, CGUs and the
industry it operates in.
• We assessed the disclosures in the financial
report using our understanding obtained from
our testing and against the requirements of the
accounting standards.
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
17% of total assets).
We focused on the significant forward-looking
assumptions the Group applied in their value in
use models, including:
•
forecast cash flows – the Group
experienced business disruption as a result
of COVID-19. This condition, and the
uncertainty of recurrence, increases the risk
of inaccurate forecasts. We focused on the
expected rate of recovery from COVID-19
for the Group when assessing the feasibility
of the Group’s forecast cash flows.
•
forecast growth rates – in addition to the
uncertainty described above, the PWR North
America (PWR NA) Cash Generating Unit
(CGU) includes the Group’s estimate of the
expected growth from PWR NA’s
involvement in original equipment
manufacture (OEM) programs and emerging
technologies. The Group’s model is
sensitive to changes, and negative changes
to these assumptions reduces available
headroom. This drives additional audit effort
specific to the feasibility of forecast growth
rates.
• discount rates – these are complicated by
nature and vary according to the conditions
and environment the specific CGU is subject
to from time to time.
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.

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.
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 the 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 and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether the use of
the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. 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 and Company 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 the Financial Report.
