REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUE Chairman’s Review Growth | Profitability | Excellence Teresa Handicott Chairman optimisation of our current ERP system and assessment of a number of global human resource management systems with selection to be made in FY23. Last year we made a significant step forward with the achievement of AS9100 certification (Rev D) to support our growth into the aerospace and defence industry. This year we have added to our capabilities by achieving Nadcap® Accreditations for our chemical processing and heat treating applications. The accreditation follows recent site audits of both chemical processing and heat treating applications and sets PWR up extremely well to support the targeted growth in our aerospace and defence business. COVID-19 continued to have an impact on PWR’s business during FY22, with the challenge of managing unplanned staff absences and disruptions to our supply chain. Kees and the PWR team remained focused and as always, passionate about delivering returns to shareholders. Their efforts and focus were guided by PWR’s strategic objectives of growth, profitability and excellence and a risk culture that saw us proactively manage employee absences and supply chain constraints caused by COVID-19. The Board recognises that what has been achieved in FY22 in the face of these challenges 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 to deliver innovative and high-quality products, using our advanced technology while also looking after their team mates and isolating and wearing masks when required. Looking ahead, we are focused on delivering growth, profitability and excellence and putting plans in place now to support PWR’s future. On behalf of your Board, I would like to thank all shareholders for their continued support of PWR. I am delighted to present to you PWR’s 2022 annual report in what has been a record year for PWR. PWR delivered a record result for the 2022 financial year, with Net Profit After Tax (NPAT) of $20.8m up 24.1% on the prior period (FY21: $16.8m). The Group continued to deliver on its growth objective through implementation of its strategy, ongoing capital investment and research and development programs while still producing a strong return on equity at 27% (FY21: 26%). Cash flows were impacted by the decision to increase inventories of raw materials in response to global supply chain challenges, including the impact of the war in Ukraine on global aluminium supplies. The decision to increase inventories of raw materials has resulted in an EBITDA to operating cash conversion ratio of 66% (FY21: 108%). The Group retains a strong cash balance at 30 June 2022 of $21.5m (FY21: $19.9m) and remains debt free, with access to its $10m multicurrency and $7.5m equipment finance facilities to support future operational requirements, if required. Considering these results and balance sheet position, the Board has declared a fully franked final dividend of 8.50 cents per share, taking the full year dividend to 12.00 cents per share, an increase of 36.4% on last year’s full year dividend (FY21: 8.80 cents per share). During the year, we continued to invest in our people and their development with the commencement of a front line leadership program, focusing initially on participants’ understanding their own behavioural leadership styles and their impact on those they lead and work with. We also invested in leading edge technology and equipment to support our new PWR North America aerospace and defence machine shop which is scheduled to open in September 2022. To ensure a solid foundation for our growth plans, we have also invested in our systems and processes with the commencement of a review and 4 PWR Holdings Limited Managing Director’s Review Powering Ahead E T A E R C E W W O H E U L A V E L B A N A T S U S I Kees Weel Founder & Managing Director PWR has performed strongly during the 2022 financial year despite the ongoing impacts of COVID-19 and the global supply chain challenges. PWR has delivered solid revenue and profit growth across all major market sectors, in particular emerging technologies. We have maintained a strong balance sheet and are well prepared to deliver on opportunities in the next few years.

Our EBITDA to cash conversion ratio was 66%. The cash balance has increased from $19.9m at 30 June 2021 to $21.5m at 30 June 2022. We believe we have achieved a balanced outcome for all stakeholders and expected future business requirements by declaring a fully franked final dividend of 8.50 cents per share. Revenue Group revenue grew strongly in FY22 with solid growth across all key market sectors including motorsports, automotive aftermarket, automotive OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and aerospace and defence. Revenue also grew across all major geographic markets with the strongest growth in Europe which grew an impressive 35.9% due to growth in automotive OEM and emerging technologies.

In FY22 the supply of cooling technology to automotive OEM and the supply of emerging technologies to existing and new customer markets have been significant growth drivers for the business. PWR C&R PWR C&R (based in the USA) has successfully delivered automotive OEM and emerging technology programs, including solid growth in the automotive aftermarket. PWR C&R is well placed to further develop these market sectors, supported by investment in new factory capacity and expanded equipment capacity and capability. Centres of Excellence PWR has 2 manufacturing hubs able to service customers globally. A key aspect of our corporate strategy is having Centres of Excellence for the different aspects of our business including manufacturing operations, engineering, design, testing, research and development and corporate services. These will ensure appropriately located and resourced specialised teams collectively focus on delivering the best outcomes for the Group. Technology Developments PWR deploys advanced technologies into our manufacturing processes to ensure we remain at the forefront of manufacturing capability and complexity for both existing customers as well as potential new customers and industries. During FY22, these technologies of cold plates, micro matrix and additive manufacturing have been further developed and commercialised. Our application of these technologies continues to expand as current and potential customers embrace the benefits, including customers in the aerospace and defence, electric and hybrid vehicle and alternative energy sectors. The Future Visibility of our growth potential for the next 5 to 10 years has never been better and this allows us to invest with confidence. To support growth in FY22, PWR increased the headcount from 363 to 451. PWR expects continued growth in FY23 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 with the PWR Team this year with the objective of making FY23 another record year on all fronts.

Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (“EBITDA”) is a non-IFRS term which has not been subject to audit or review but has been determined using information presented in the annual financial report. EBITDA Reconciliation A reconciliation of EBITDA1 to the reported profit before tax in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income is as follows: Profit for the period before tax Add : net finance costs / (income) Add : depreciation & amortisation EBITDA1 FY22 A$’000 FY21 A$’000 28,492 22,547 30 7,225 35,747 677 5,739 28,963 1. Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (“EBITDA”) is a non-IFRS term which has not been subject to audit or review but has been determined using information presented in the annual financial report. Revenue The Group achieved overall revenue growth of 27.6% compared to the prior corresponding period. Organic revenue increased by 25.8% plus favourable exchange rate movements of 1.8%. The above growth was primarily driven by third party sales out of the United Kingdom, Australia, and the United States of America, where sales grew 35.9%, 34.1% and 17.9% respectively. Exchange rate movements saw the GBP being (4.6%) weaker at 30 June 2022 and the US dollar being 8.3% stronger compared to the prior period. Average rates during the financial year saw the GBP 1.6% stronger and the US dollar 2.8% stronger than the prior period. The net impact of exchange rate movements had a favourable impact on revenue for the year of $1.46m (FY21: unfavourable $3.40m). EBITDA Assisted by the positive impact on revenue of foreign exchange rate movements, EBITDA in FY22 compared to the prior corresponding period was stronger mainly due to: – Solid revenue growth across the motorsports, OEM, aerospace and defence, and automotive aftermarket sectors; – Production costs control; and – Administration and overhead costs control. Net profit after tax Net profit after tax of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2022 was $20.84 million (FY21: $16.80 million). Operating cash flow The Group cash conversion rate was impacted by the decision to increase inventories of raw materials in response to global supply chain challenges, including the impact of the war in Ukraine on global aluminium supplies. FY22 operating cash flow (excluding interest and tax) was $23.52 million, a conversion of 66% from EBITDA. 8 PWR Holdings Limited E T A E R C E W W O H E U L A V E L B A N A T S U S I 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: British pounds (GBP) US dollars (USD) Australian dollars (AUD) FY22 FY21 58.0% 28.6% 13.4% 53.8% 31.2% 15.0% Balance sheet management The balance sheet remains strong with cash of $21.5 million (FY21: $19.9 million). Working capital utilisation has increased from 65 days at 30 June 2021 to 130 days at 30 June 2022 due largely to the increase in raw material inventory in response to global supply chain challenges. Capital expenditure for the year was $5.0 million (FY21: $10.4 million). The capital expenditure was lower than the prior corresponding period due to the timing of purchase orders being placed and extended equipment delivery times. 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 expected contribution of EBITDA to operating cash flows, the Board has declared a final 2022 dividend of 8.50 cents per share bringing the total dividend paid to 12.00 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 C&R which comprises its USA operations.

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 2022 and using currently available information has resulted in the current values continuing to be recognised. Review of principal businesses During the year ended 30 June 2022, in addition to the items outlined above, the Group: – Enhanced our 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 deliver 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. Annual Report 2022 9 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUE Delivering Value Customer and Stakeholder Relationships We create value through focusing on what matters most to the many stakeholders of our business. The quality of the relationships we develop with our many stakeholders directly impacts the success of PWR. 01 Our Employees Providing opportunities to our employees so they can be the best they can be and are proud to be part of the PWR team Giving shareholders and investors an opportunity to visit our Ormeau facility providing valuable insight into the significant investments made by the company to support the adoption of latest advanced technologies and manufacturing capabilities Our Shareholders 02 PWR’s Stakeholders 03 Our Customers PWR is an extension of our customer base. We share their wins, or perhaps their losses but we are certainly there to support them when they need us the most Relying on exceptional partners in PWR’s supply chain to deliver world class service Our Suppliers 04 Building Trust and Respect Genuine relationships built on trust and respect underpins the successful achievements of PWR, while providing the foundation for successful growth in the future. At the forefront our success in delivering value is: – Customer Service – Responsiveness – Product Range – Quality – Knowledge – Capability Our staff are Passionate PWR’s engagement between customer and staff is unrivalled with a can-do attitude and an approach to take on tasks and challenges like they were our own, to provide innovative solutions and solve complex challenges to serve the best interests of our customers. PWR’s true value is provided through industry leading products and services with highly differentiated features and benefits compared to any potential competitor offer. Our willingness to engage in new developments and push boundaries of current capability is without peer, and one of the defining characteristics of a relationship with PWR. 10 PWR Holdings Limited We Provide our Customers with Around-the- Clock Service A global presence through Australia, Europe and North America, with highly dedicated staff provides our customer base with around the clock service, and our project engagement is one of true partnership with a shared goal to succeed in producing the best final product or solution. Our feedback from our key customer base is consistently that of partnership, where PWR is recognised and acknowledged as an integral part of our customer’s own team in the way that we work. 01 Employee Engagement Bringing Our Employees and Customers Together PWR is fortunate to be able to call some of the world’s leading companies and race teams our customers, and this provides our staff a tremendous source of pride in the work they do, and for the applications that their work serves. PWR is extremely proud of its company uniform, but it has long been a tradition that PWR staff are encouraged on a Friday to wear shirts that represent our customer base. Fridays will see staff wearing motorsport team shirts from Formula 1, Moto GP, NASCAR, WRC and Supercars to name just a few, as well as representation of other prestige marques from the automotive industry. I G N R E V L E D I E U L A V This tradition serves as a constant reminder of the importance in the role PWR plays in supporting this customer’s base, and that our staff are an extension of our customer’s own teams with each playing a critical role in the success of delivering a high quality and high performing end product or solution. Our customers are appreciative of this demonstration of our partnership and are supportive with initiatives, supplying discounts and access to their branded merchandise to PWR staff, because all parties benefit from the increased engagement this delivers. Employee Opportunities It is also a tradition within PWR that each year the company takes a select group of high performing staff from the prior year to Albert Park in Melbourne for the Formula One Grand Prix where they have the opportunity to see some of the results of their hard work in the products PWR supplies to Formula 1. It’s a great team building experience and a further point of connection to the dedicated work completed to have access to see and appreciate the importance of the products and services they are responsible for delivering. This is also an opportunity to hear firsthand from the teams the positive influence PWR makes to a reliable and efficient race car. PWR was very pleased to be able to return to the Melbourne Grand Prix in 2022 and share this experience with deserving staff. Annual Report 2022 11 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUE Delivering Value Customer and Stakeholder Relationships continued Myles Jackman 12 PWR Holdings Limited 0302 Shareholder Engagement PWR is always keen to show our shareholders what we do Our 2021 AGM provided a great opportunity for PWR to invite shareholders to our Ormeau facility and to be able to share examples of our latest product developments, as well as tour the factory providing valuable insight into the significant investments made by the company to support the adoption of latest advanced technologies and manufacturing capabilities. Events such as these are highly successful, with very positive feedback received by all in attendance and attendees impressed by the scale and presentation of the facility. This platform provides an ideal opportunity for effective communication to our shareholders engaging with PWR tour hosts and staff to better understand PWR’s business, products and services that support the opportunities ahead. Overwhelming feedback was received from our AGM regarding our staff’s knowledge and passion for PWR, our products and our customers. The open forum created by hosting events such as this delivers positive results for shareholders and staff alike with the ability for all to engage in discussion around common points of interest behind PWR. This is certainly a platform that PWR plans to retain and grow in the future. 03 Customer Engagement PWR is an extension of our customer base when it comes to collaborating with them to design and manufacture the very best thermal solution for their application, however the extent of our commitment does not end there. I G N R E V L E D I E U L A V CASE STUDY: Going Above and Beyond 04 Supplier Engagement We share our customer’s wins, or perhaps their losses but we are certainly there to support them when they need us the most if they strike trouble with unforeseen circumstances and assistance is needed. Such a situation arose earlier this year, where one of our customer teams had a systems issue and needed to quickly move to new heat exchangers to solve the problem. This required a very quick PWR reaction to design, manufacture and deliver new cooling system components in a matter of weeks. This requires commitment across the entire team at PWR, through all the critical departmental steps delivering high quality output at a rate that most companies would believe unachievable but is the fundamental ingredient in delivering success in Formula 1. When needed, our commitment does not end at our dispatch dock, and as we did earlier this year we had one of PWR’s Engineers from our Specialty Build department fly to Saudi Arabia with critically important assemblies to have available for race day. This is a level of commitment and customer service that is not only appreciated by our customer but provides yet another opportunity for engagement of PWR staff with our customers and allows trusted relationships to be formed when we are always working to a common goal together. This provides our customers what they need with a high level of service while providing our staff with opportunities and experiences that can’t be replicated anywhere else. We are grateful to the Haas F1 Team for hosting our Engineer, Blake Evans over the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weekend as a thank you for his personal effort to get their parts to them in the shortest time possible. PWR is proudly a highly vertically integrated business taking control of most processes to deliver our products and services. However we still have a very important supply chain with integral partners we forge long lasting relationships with to deliver to the high quality and service expectations of PWR and our customers. Just as PWR is considered a critical link in our customer’s supply chain, PWR relies on exceptional partners in our own supply chain to deliver world class service. CASE STUDY: Thermasys Tubing A demonstration of our supplier partnerships is our relationship with Thermasys Tubing in Germany, whom we needed to call on to support production of a very short lead time tubing request to meet customer demand. Our request required not only prioritized scheduling of production within Thermasys but required external negotiation with the supporting aluminum strip supplier. With the dedication and commitment of key suppliers such as Thermasys, we were able to reduce a 12 week production lead time to 4 weeks to deliver against PWR’s project timeline and against our customer objective. These actions to explore all opportunity to deliver against customer expectations is what is required in a high performance supply chain, and the value this brings to PWR is well recognized. PWR took action to acknowledge the extraordinary efforts of the staff at Thermasys Tubing and arranged some PWR gift bags to be delivered and shared amongst Thermasys staff as appreciation for their support and a demonstration of PWR’s valued partnership with them as a supplier.

We signed up 21 new apprentices during the year, resulting in a total of 42 apprenticeships running by the end of June 2022 and during the year we were pleased to see 3 apprentices complete their training and transition to fully qualified tradespeople. Our People At the heart of PWR is its people. We believe in them, support their health, safety and wellbeing and ensure they have access to learning and development opportunities. We encourage a workplace that is diverse, empowered and demonstrates good decision making and one which fosters innovation and high productivity. We take a particular interest in recruiting apprentices, offering work experience to high school students and investing in them to build a capable and committed workforce to maintain PWR’s exceptional quality workmanship and customer service. Growth in a challenging employment market The market presented challenges over the year globally, with low candidate availability and high recruitment demand. The unemployment rate remained low in Australia, USA and UK, falling in mid 2022 to the lowest level since August 1974 for both Australia and the UK and staying at a comparatively low rate in the USA. Ongoing labour shortages were exacerbated by reduced hours worked as staff were forced to take leave due to illness, potentially attributed to higher rates of flu and COVID-19. Despite these challenges, globally, PWR grew employee numbers by 24% over the year, continuing our progressive growth over the last 5 years. Employee Numbers 500 400 300 200 100 0 June 2018 June 2019 June 2020 June 2021 June 2022 Australia North America Europe 88 Expanded our team to employ an additional 88 people globally 14 PWR Holdings Limited Gareth Edwards and Jake Nicholson I G N R E V L E D I E U L A V CASE STUDY: Demi Cross Demi joined PWR in February 2021, having done various roles in retail and warehousing since leaving school in 2017. She was keen to start a career and having an interest in 4WD off roading and working on her Toyota Hilux, PWR was a great fit for her. In early 2022 Demi secured a place as a PWR Apprentice Welder in our Fabrication area and since then has gone from strength to strength. Demi Cross “ When I came to PWR I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do, then I saw Kaz (a female who was in fabrication) working and I knew I wanted to learn welding, so I managed to get onto the Apprenticeship program. It is really fun, challenging sometimes but I really enjoy it. PWR is good if you’re a girl; the guys here are great, it’s a respectable workplace. The GM of Production said I was the fastest to complete the welding training which made me happy and proud, and it’s good to beat the boys! As well as that what they teach you here is next level, so long term I want to continue my career on the welding training program with PWR.” Achievements 21 New apprentices signed up 3 Apprentices completed and transitioned 17 Work experience students to fully qualified tradespeople spent time at PWR Investing in Leadership Development This year saw the development of a PWR specific frontline leadership training program, aimed at further developing leadership skills. This includes the use of a DiSC profile to set the foundation by helping individuals to better understand themselves. (DiSC is an acronym that stands for the 4 main personality profiles described in the DiSC model: (D)ominance, (i)nfluence, (S)teadiness and (C)onscientiousness). Individual feedback sessions have been conducted for those who completed the DiSC profile and over the coming year we are rolling out a series of supporting short, targeted sessions covering key topics, followed by a session on applying each of the learnings. Graduate Engineer Program PWR’s graduate engineering programme provides an opportunity for recent engineering graduates to expand on their university studies. Offered as a 2-year programme, they will benefit from the insight and support of experienced engineers and production team members who have worked on innovative and leading-edge product development in the motorsport, automotive, aerospace and defence industries.

In the future I would like to take my career with PWR as far as I possibly can, ideally into Production Management.” Anastasia Tsompanellis Annual Report 2022 19 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUE Delivering Value Investing in Emerging Technology and New Industries At PWR, we provide leading edge cooling solutions to our customers in many industries and we leverage our knowledge, skills and capabilities to provide products to new industries for our cooling solutions, such as the aerospace and defence industry. Our unique point of difference however is the way we stay ahead of the curve in the emerging technology space. Emerging technologies create real opportunity for PWR and its customers and are used by PWR and its customers to tackle climate change by working with customers to develop lower emission cooling solutions to stem additional damage to our planet. Thermally efficient heat exchangers are a key driving force in many processes requiring a chemical reaction. The use case can be for carbon capture from the atmosphere, where CO2 is entrapped within special coatings on a heat exchanger surface, where it is later stored underground or used for product use. Additional use cases require heat exchangers to be used in conjunction with a catalyst to aid in the production of green fuels, as an alternative to fossil fuels. Other opportunities for PWR exist across the sustainable mobility platforms, with the race to electrified flight certification heating up. PWR technology transfers well to these platforms due to the requirements for highly efficient and light weight cooling systems, to offset the additional mass of the battery systems required. 20 PWR Holdings Limited CASE STUDY: Emerging Technology Customer - Electroflight – World’s Fastest All-Electric Aircraft https://www.electro-flight.com/news/ partnering-with-rolls-royce-and-electroflight- to-create-the-battery-for-worlds-fastest-all- electric-aircraft Recently PWR worked with UK based company, Electroflight, to assist in managing the thermal requirements of their all-electric aircraft. The objective of the joint venture between Electroflight and Rolls Royce aimed to create the world’s fastest all-electric aircraft, as a demonstration of battery and drivetrain technology for sustainable flight. Early in 2022 the ‘Spirit of Innovation’ aircraft achieved separate record speeds, with the final record set at 387.4 mph (623kph) crediting the platform as the world’s fastest all-electric vehicle. PWR provided battery cooling and drivetrain cooling solutions for this one-of-a-kind aircraft and we are proud to be part of a world record flight. In addition to the speed record, the Electroflight team subjected the battery system, including PWR parts, to the rigorous DO-160G shock and vibration testing, allowing another benchmark, as the first aerospace battery propulsion system to successfully complete the DO-160G testing in the UK. The image above shows the aircraft in pre-flight condition being prepared by the electrification engineers, with cowlings removed, and a clear image of some of the PWR componentry attached to the air intake ducting. I G N R E V L E D I E U L A V Annual Report 2022 21 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUE Delivering Value Intellectual Capital To be an industry leader in the field of Thermal Management systems across multiple high value market sectors requires substantial investment in people, advanced manufacturing technology, capability, quality control and testing systems to deliver customised solutions to exacting standards. To stay ahead we must always innovate and never be satisfied to be standing still even when business is strong. Our operational management aims to attract and retain talented staff, minimise waste and improve efficiencies, while our strategic management anticipates customer needs and industry trends to ensure PWR is well positioned to deliver on customer expectations and market opportunities in advance of their materialisation. PWR is committed to investing in its own success to build capability and capacity to support all of our market sectors to deliver solutions exceeding our customers’ expectations. 22 PWR Holdings Limited CASE STUDY 1: Systems and Accreditations PWR has recently been successful in achieving accreditation to the National Aerospace and Defence Contractors Accreditation Program. With the introduction of NADCAP and the further improvements made to our Quality Management System (QMS), this is driving a more system centric approach to internal business processes within PWR. Both AS9100D and NADCAP require internal processes to be robust, effective, and aligned to how the business performs internal processes and the effectiveness of the controls put in place. A quality system needs to work for the business and help drive the right culture expected in the demanding global industry sectors PWR chooses to do business. The introduction of NADCAP only raises this expectation further. Being a NADCAP- recognised supplier means our customers can reduce or replace costly individual audits that would otherwise be required by their own Quality Departments. Large aerospace and defence contractors historically would have sent individual personnel out to audit suppliers, but NADCAP certification is a high-level third-party accreditation program to validate those successful in achieving endorsement as a trusted company to the primes of the Aerospace and Defence market sectors. PWR have taken this challenge head on, expanding the Management team and internal structure through the introduction of the Operational Excellence department ensuring governance of structures, systems and processes that underpin PWR’s product development and ensuring that there are robust and well communicated end to end processes that result in PWR providing quality results to customers.

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 2022. This report seeks to describe, in a simple and transparent way, our approach to remunerating our Board and Executive key management personnel (Executives) and the key principles that underpin our Pay for Performance Framework, as well as remuneration for our Non-Executive Directors. Strong Results While Dealing with the Pandemic At the end of FY2021 we were all optimistic that the worst of the pandemic was behind us. This wasn’t to be the case and COVID-19 continued to impact our staff and our ability to travel and meet our customers face to face throughout FY2022. PWR Holdings Limited (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Group”) acted decisively and after extensive facilitation and consultation with our staff introduced a requirement that staff and visitors be fully vaccinated to enter the Group’s Ormeau site. This gave us confidence to continue with our growth trajectory and recommence visits to customers both domestically and internationally. We have been able to deliver a record profit of $20.843m, and also managed to keep our staff safe and employed, a tremendous effort by each and every one of our employees who worked with us and supported the business in taking this step. Total Fixed Remuneration Outcomes – Moderate Outcomes Reflecting Strong Performance As shareholders will know, the Group did not award any bonuses to the Managing Director (MD) or Executives in FY2021 and also did not award salary increases to those roles given the uncertainty relevant to the pandemic. With respect to the annual salary reviews conducted at the end of FY2022 for salaries moving into FY2023, the Board appointed an independent remuneration consultant to provide advice on remuneration benchmarking for the Executives. The outcome of that exercise is described on page 49, section 10.1. Short Term Incentive Program (STIP) Outcomes The intent of the STIP is to focus our Executives on what they can influence in the performance year. For the STIP to be activated for Executives, they must meet a STIP Gate established by the Board. If the STIP Gate is met, this unlocks the STIP amount for Executives 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 STIP Gate is a financial measure linked to budgeted NPAT for the Group. Provided the STIP gate is met or exceeded, the Corporate Scorecard is assessed against new sector revenue growth, safety, staff retention and product quality. The more the STIP Gate is exceeded, the more of the Corporate Scorecard is unlocked. Executives’s performance is also assessed against personal KPIs tailored to their role. As outlined in more detail on page 46, the Company exceeded the gate for the STIP and accordingly Executives did earn cash bonuses for FY22 under the STIP. The quantum of their bonuses was based on assessment of the Corporate Scorecard as well as personal KPIs which are further explained on page 47. The Board believes this was appropriate 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 Program (LTIP) Outcomes Performance of long-term incentive rights granted in the FY2019 year were assessed for the end of FY2021. Both the TSR and EPS performance hurdles for the 3 year performance period were exceeded, resulting in 100% vesting of long-term incentives in September 2021. At the end of June 2021, following a 3 year performance period: – – the Company ranked at the 90th percentile for Total Shareholder Return (TSR) for the performance period for the FY2019 performance rights (1 July 2018 to 30 June 2021) when compared to the benchmark group of ASX 300, excluding the Energy sector (oil, gas and coal) the Group’s EPS hurdle for the FY2019 performance rights was measured by the growth in EPS from FY2019 (base year) to the end of the third year of the Performance Period (FY2021). The EPS growth rate was 52.5%, a compound growth rate of 15.1% over that period As a result, 100% of the FY2019 performance rights vested on 1 September 2021 and provided the Executives an equivalent number of the Company shares to the rights granted as remuneration. 39 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEDIRECTORS’ REPORT Remuneration Report For the year ended 30 June 2022 Changes to Directors’ Fees from 1 July 2022 We also appointed an independent remuneration consultant to benchmark the fees for the Chairman and Non-Executive Directors, the first external review since listing in 2015. The review highlighted that that our directors’ fees, in particular for our Chairman, have fallen below market peers. To ensure that the Group remains able to attract and retain directors of appropriate skill and experience, we resolved to make an increase of 12% in directors fees and a 14% increase in the Chairman’s fees to bring them more into line with market. Further details can be found on page 53. 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 Executives for performance and recognising the interests of shareholders, however the Board has decided to appoint an independent Remuneration Consultant in FY2023 to assist with a review of our incentive plan structures to ensure we continue to appropriately incentivise Executives to deliver shareholder value. Our Corporate Scorecard for FY2023 will continue to focus our Executives and people they lead on our business priorities including implementing controls to keep our people safe and well, growing our aerospace and defence business, maintaining exceptional product quality and improving productivity. In what continues to be an extraordinary time, I wish to thank our shareholders for their continued support.

REMUNERATION GOVERNANCE The Board is accountable for establishing the remuneration policies and framework for the Group and ensuring remuneration of the Managing Director and 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 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 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. The Board had regular contact with each of the Executives during the year. The NRC makes recommendations to the Board regarding all aspects of Executive remuneration. This includes making recommendations in relation to the targets to be included in the STIP (both the financial and other 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. Remuneration Consultants were appointed to provide advice on Non-Executive Director (NED) remuneration and remuneration for the Managing Director and Executives for FY2023. The NRC Charter sets out further information regarding the Committee’s objectives and role. 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. Responsibility for determining NED remuneration The Board is responsible for assessing Non-Executive Director fees, assisted by the NRC. Shareholders approve the total aggregate fee limit (AFL) for Non-Executive Director remuneration. The AFL approved by shareholders is currently $750,000 per annum. Reviews of Non-Executive Director and Committee Member fees are carried out periodically with assistance of independent benchmarking reports and/or consultants. 41 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEDIRECTORS’ REPORT Remuneration Report For the year ended 30 June 2022 3.

REMUNERATION PRINCIPLES The guiding principles governing the Group’s Pay for Performance Policy and how we implement them are summarised in the table below: Guiding Principles Attract and Retain Pay Executives for Performance that Delivers Value to Shareholders 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 the Group in both attracting and retaining key talent. 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 a stretch target component, 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’s “at risk” remuneration on 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 the Group being a safe place to work, ensuring our reputation for quality products is maintained, achieving key strategic priorities, and achieving leading Total Shareholder Returns. 42 Directors’ ReportPWR Holdings Limited Remuneration Report For the year ended 30 June 2022 4.

EXECUTIVE SHORT TERM INCENTIVE REMUNERATION OUTCOMES 8.1. STIP Gate The STIP operates with a NPAT gate to activate the plan. The gate was exceeded, opening the STIP to up to 100% of maximum scores. An increasing amount of STIP is available depending on by how much the STIP gate is exceeded. 8.2. Corporate Scorecard At the beginning of the reporting period, the Board established Company KPIs which together formed the Corporate Scorecard and which are largely non-financial KPIs. Subject to the STIP gate being met or exceeded the Corporate Scorecard accounts for up to 60% of the maximum potential cash bonus payable to the Executives. 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. 46 Directors’ ReportPWR Holdings Limited Remuneration Report For the year ended 30 June 2022 8.

Subject to Board approval of performance hurdles and service conditions being met 10. SUMMARY OF REMUNERATION COMPONENTS AND HOW THEY OPERATE 10.1. Total Fixed Remuneration Total Fixed Remuneration is set with reference to the median of the Group’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 Executives 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 considers the Executive’s role and accountabilities, relevant market benchmarks and attraction, retention and motivation of Executives in the context of the overall market. With respect to the annual salary reviews conducted at the end of FY2022 for salaries moving into FY2023, the Board appointed Godfrey Remuneration Group to benchmark Executive Total Fixed Remuneration during July 2022 and took on board GRG’s advice when determining remuneration for the Executives for FY2023. The outcome of that exercise was: – Managing Director - In recognition of Mr Weel’s established tenure in the role of MD, performing at a high level and leading the Company through significant growth (in revenue, profit and share price), and in consideration of his remuneration relative to market peers, his Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR) was increased effective 1 July 2022 to $653,000 per annum, representing a 19% increase on the prior year and which remains below benchmark and will require continued focus. His Short Term Incentive (STI) opportunity remained at 50% of TFR. Mr Weel elects not to participate in the Long Term Incentive Program (LTIP) given his significant shareholding in the Company, however the Board seeks to drive long-term shareholder wealth and will review the LTIP in the coming months to consider the MD’s participation. – Chief Technical and Commercial Officer – Based on a review of market peers, Mr Bryson’s TFR has been set at $405,000 per annum from 1 July 2022, a 5% increase on the prior year. – Chief Financial Officer – Similarly, based on a review of market peers, Mr McIver’s TFR has been set at $380,000 per annum from 1 July 2022, an 8% increase on the prior year. 49 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEDIRECTORS’ REPORT Remuneration Report For the year ended 30 June 2022 10. SUMMARY OF REMUNERATION COMPONENTS AND HOW THEY OPERATE (continued) 10.2. Short Term Incentives The Managing Director and Executives are eligible to participate in the Group’s Short-Term Incentive Plan. Executive Participants Managing Director, Chief Technical and Commercial Officer and Chief Financial Officer How is it paid Annual cash bonus subject to achievement of corporate and personal KPIs STIP Gate The STIP gate is a minimum profit gateway based on the Group’s budgeted profit target which must be met for the STIP to be activated for Executives. The amount by which the gate is exceeded then determines the maximum that can be attributed to each KPI on the Corporate Scorecard. Corporate Scorecard (60% weighting) The Board establishes company KPIs that form the Corporate Scorecard on an annual basis. These are determined by assessing key drivers that are required to deliver on our strategic objectives and require the Executives to work as a team to achieve. Personal KPIs (40% weighting) 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 other Executives for Board approval. Personal KPIs represent 40% of the maximum potential cash bonus payable to the Executives and for payment to be made against these KPIs, the STIP 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.

SUMMARY OF REMUNERATION COMPONENTS AND HOW THEY OPERATE (continued) 10.3. Long Term Incentives The Managing Director and the Executives 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. Executive participants Managing Director, Chief Technical and Commercial Officer and Chief Financial Officer How is it paid? Performance Rights. Executives are invited by the Board to apply for performance rights (“Rights”) on an annual basis under the LTIP as part of their Total Remuneration. How many Rights are granted? The number of Rights granted to each Executive is calculated by dividing the % of TFR eligibility by the Company volume weighted average share price for the trading days of the June prior to the commencement of the performance period. Managing Director – 50% of TFR (note that the MD although eligible, subject to shareholder approval to participate in the LTIP, elects not to do so given his significant shareholding). The Board is currently considering restructuring the LTIP to allow for the MD to participate where resultant awards are able to be paid in cash. A recommendation will be put to shareholders at the 2022 AGM for consideration. Performance period 3 years. Executives – 30% of TFR Rights convert to ordinary shares in the Company on a 1 for 1 basis at the end of the 3 year performance period depending on the extent to which performance hurdles are achieved and service conditions met. Performance hurdles The performance hurdles for Rights granted prior to 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 the Company holds relative to the benchmark group for the relevant 3 year performance period: TSR Ranking (TSR) TSR is 50% or less Vesting outcome Nil vesting TSR is more than 50% but less than 75% Pro rata vesting TSR is 75% or more 100% vesting – 50% of the rights will vest upon achievement of growth in EPS. Vesting is determined by the growth in EPS from the financial year immediately prior to the start of the Performance Period (base year) to the end of the third year of the Performance Period, measured against specific EPS targets outlined below: Earnings Per Share (EPS) EPS growth rate of <4% EPS growth rate of ≥4% to ≤12% EPS growth rate of >12% Vesting outcome Nil vesting Pro rata vesting 100% vesting While the TSR hurdle remains the same, the EPS hurdle for the Rights granted from FY2021 onwards is different to that attached to Rights granted prior to that. For Rights granted from FY2021 onwards: 51 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEDIRECTORS’ REPORT Remuneration Report For the year ended 30 June 2022 10. SUMMARY OF REMUNERATION COMPONENTS AND HOW THEY OPERATE (continued) – 50% of the rights will vest based on compound growth in annual 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 Service Condition Participants must remain continually employed with the Company until the date of vesting. Vesting Rights that do not vest at the end of the 3 year period lapse, unless the Board in its discretion determines otherwise. Upon cessation of employment prior to the vesting date, Rights will be forfeited and lapse unless the Board in its discretion determines otherwise. Rights do not entitle holders to dividends that are declared during the vesting period. Why relative TSR and Compound EPS? The Board believes that these hurdles represent an appropriate balance between internal performance and external benchmarking. EPS is a relevant indicator of increase in shareholder value and the EPS hurdles provide a line of sight to encourage performance. Relative TSR is aligned with the Group’s growth strategy. Restrictions Executives are prohibited from entering into transactions or arrangements which operate to transfer or limit the economic risk of any Rights held under the LTIP while they are subject to performance hurdles or otherwise unvested. 11. CONTRACT DURATION AND TERMINATION REQUIREMENTS The Company has contracts of employment with no fixed tenure requirements with the Executives. The notice period for each is outlined in the table below. Termination with notice may be initiated by either party. The contracts contain customary clauses dealing with immediate termination for gross misconduct, confidentiality, and post-employment restraint of trade provisions.

REMUNERATION OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS 12.1. 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 – – obtain independent external remuneration advice when required. remunerate Directors at market rates for their commitment and responsibilities, and The Aggregate Fee Limit (AFL), in place since listing in 2015, is $750,000 per annum (inclusive of superannuation contributions). The Board determines the distribution of Non-Executive Director fees within the approved AFL. 52 Directors’ ReportPWR Holdings Limited Remuneration Report For the year ended 30 June 2022 12. REMUNERATION OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS (continued) 12.2. Review of Non-Executive Director Remuneration Policy and Non-Executive Director Remuneration The Board appointed Godfrey Remuneration Group to review the Non-Executive Director Remuneration Policy and to benchmark NED Remuneration for the period commencing 1 July 2022. Following the independent review, the Non- Executive Director Remuneration Policy was amended as follows: – – – The Main Board Package (MBP) for Non-Executive Directors should be positioned around P50 (50th percentile) of market practices, with the variation in the clustering reflecting differences in contributions to committees i.e., those contributing higher workloads will fall above P50, and those contributing the least, just below P50. The MBP of the Chairman will be paid as a multiple of the Non-Executive Director MBP derived from the market analysis. The Chairman will not receive committee fees in addition to a Board fee. The purpose of Non-Executive Director remuneration is to recognise the work undertaken by Board members for their work as Non-Executive Directors. Extra work undertaken by a Non-Executive Director outside of the normal scope of NED duties should be remunerated at an agreed upon rate based on the amount of work undertaken in addition to their MBP. – Board Committee Chairs receive a fee of $20,000 per annum, however the Board Chairman does not receive committee fees, regardless of participation level. 12.3.

The property leases include extension options exercisable by the Group between 3 and 6 months before the 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. Right-of-use assets relate to leased properties that do not meet the definition of investment property and are presented as property, plant and equipment and included in land and buildings. 2022 Right of Use Lease Assets: Balance at beginning of year Additions to right-of-use assets Amortisation charge for the year Effect of movements in exchange rates Balance at end of year 2021 Right of Use Lease Assets: Balance at beginning of year Additions to right-of-use assets Amortisation charge for the year Effect of movements in exchange rates Balance at end of year Amounts recognised in Profit or Loss Deemed interest charge for the year Amortisation charge for the year Expenses relating to short term leases Land and Buildings $’000 7,916 - (1,890) 99 6,125 Land and Buildings $’000 8,928 1,053 (1,850) (215) 7,916 2021 $’000 229 1,850 8 2,087 71 2022 $’000 193 1,890 12 2,095 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION C OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (continued) C6 Intangible assets 2022 Cost Accumulated amortisation 2021 Cost Accumulated amortisation Reconciliations 2022 Carrying amount at beginning of year Effect of movements in exchange rates Balance at the end of the year 2021 Carrying amount at beginning of year Effect of movements in exchange rates Balance at the end of the year Goodwill $’000 Trademarks $’000 Total $’000 4,042 10,985 15,027 - - - 4,042 10,985 15,027 3,930 10,985 14,915 - - - 3,930 10,985 14,915 3,930 10,985 14,915 112 - 112 4,042 10,985 15,027 4,049 (119) 3,930 10,985 15,034 - 10,985 (119) 14,915 Impairment For impairment testing, goodwill and trademarks are allocated to the Group’s cash generating units (CGUs) as follows: PWR Performance Products PWR C&R 2022 $’000 2,111 8,432 2021 $’000 2,122 8,432 10,543 10,554 2022 $’000 1,931 2,553 4,484 2021 $’000 1,808 2,553 4,361 Goodwill Trademarks 72 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 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 5 year period and include a terminal value at the end of year 5. The cash flow projections over the 5 year period are based on the Group’s budget for 2023 and growth over the forecast periods based on the Group’s business plans and management’s assessment of the impacts of underlying economic conditions, past performance and other factors on each CGU’s financial performance. The cashflow projections for each CGU include management’s estimates of the expected growth from the Group’s involvement in OEM programs as a cooling assembly supplier, growth in aerospace and defence, 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. Management have considered sensitivities to the recoverable amount. No reasonable possible change in the assumptions would result in an impairment of the assets in either CGU. Key assumptions used in the estimation of value in use over the 5 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 C&R Discount rate – pre tax Terminal value growth rate Revenue – compound annual growth rate Average EBITDA margin 2022 % 2021 % 12.2% 2.0% 5.0% 32.2% 10.4% 2.0% 10.0% 18.4% 12.0% 2.0% 4.4% 37.4% 11.6% 2.0% 8.1% 15.8% 73 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION C OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (continued) C7 Trade and other payables Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost.

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 during FY2022 is from 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2024. Performance rights issued to key management personnel (KMP) and non-key management personnel (Non KMP) during the year are 50% subject to the EPS performance hurdle and 50% subject to the TSR performance hurdle. At 30 June 2022, all of these performance rights remain on issue. The EPS performance hurdle for the performance rights issued after 30 June 2020 is based on the compound annual growth rate in EPS. The EPS performance hurdle for performance rights issued prior to 30 June 2020 is based on the 3 year growth in EPS. At 30 June 2022, there were 84,294 performance rights that had been issued in prior years that are subject to the 3 year growth in EPS performance hurdle. 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 $488,566 (2021: $400,899) was recognised during the year and included in “employee expenses” in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 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 2022 2021 TSR component EPS component TSR component EPS component $8.15 $8.49 Nil 40% 0.98% $9.31 $8.49 Nil N/A N/A 2.84 Years 2.84 Years 1.32% 1.32% $4.33 $6.24 Nil 36% 0.35% 3 Years 1.77% $6.00 $6.24 Nil N/A N/A 3 Years 1.77% Expected volatility has been based on an evaluation of the historical volatility of the Company’s share price prior to the grant date. 75 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION D EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (continued) Reconciliation of the number of outstanding performance rights 2022 2021 KMP Non KMP Total KMP Non KMP Total Opening outstanding balance Granted during the year 82,259 32,878 225,493 307,752 48,980 81,858 171,536 27,599 175,770 79,587 347,306 107,186 Exercised during the year (31,417) (84,855) (116,272) (93,633) (29,864) (123,497) Forfeited during the year - - - (23,243) - (23,243) Closing outstanding balance 83,720 189,618 273,338 82,259 225,493 307,752 Vested and exercisable at 30 June - - - - - - Reconciliation of share based payment reserve Opening balance Employee expenses Shares issued during the year Closing balance SECTION E TAXATION E1 Income tax expense Current tax expense Current period (Over)/under provision in prior period Deferred tax expense Origination and reversal of temporary differences Total income tax expense Numerical reconciliation between tax expense and pre-tax accounting profit Profit for the period Total income tax expense Profit excluding income tax Income tax using the Company’s domestic tax rate of 30% Tax effect of R&D benefit Effect of tax rates in foreign jurisdictions Over provision of tax on Pay Check Program in prior period Other 76 2022 $’000 2021 $’000 627 489 (261) 855 524 401 (298) 627 2022 $’000 2021 $’000 6,398 (23) 6,375 1,274 7,649 20,843 7,649 28,492 8,548 (462) (511) - 74 7,649 5,921 (536) 5,385 365 5,750 16,797 5,750 22,547 6,764 (217) (392) (460) 55 5,750 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION E TAXATION (continued) E2 Tax assets and liabilities Current tax assets and liabilities The current tax liability of $218,140 (2021: $2,000,811) represents the amount of income tax payable in respect of current and prior periods to the relevant tax authority.

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 Note C1 C2 Carrying amount 2022 $’000 21,499 13,813 35,312 2021 $’000 19,857 9,341 29,198 Cash and cash equivalents The Group held cash and cash equivalents of $21,498,660 at 30 June 2022 (2021: $19,857,387), 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. 84 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION H OTHER INFORMATION (continued) Exposure to credit risk The maximum exposure to credit risk for trade and other receivables at the end of the reporting period by geographic region was as follows: Australia UK USA The ageing of the Group’s trade and other receivables at the end of the reporting date was as follows: Not past due Past due 1-30 days Past due 31-60 days Past due > 61 days Provision for bad debt Carrying amount 2022 $’000 1,312 7,150 5,351 13,813 9,385 3,658 714 189 13,946 (133) 13,813 2021 $’000 2,495 5,152 1,694 9,341 8,363 830 63 85 9,341 - 9,341 Management have assessed the outstanding debtor balances considering known factors including the economic environment and expected credit losses and have taken up a bad debt provision for $133,370 (2021: nil). 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. 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. 85 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION H OTHER INFORMATION (continued) The following are the remaining contractual maturities at the end of the reporting period of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments. 2022 Trade and other payables Right of use liabilities 2021 Trade and other payables Right of use liabilities Note Carrying amount $’000 Contractual cash flows Total $’000 12 months $’000 1-5 years $’000 C7 F1 C7 F1 7,532 6,742 (7,532) (6,871) 14,274 (14,403) 5,333 8,456 13,789 (5,333) (8,660) (13,993) (7,532) (1,903) (9,435) (5,333) (1,789) (7,122) - (4,968) (4,968) - (6,871) (6,871) 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 2022, the Group had entered into participating forward contracts to manage its exposure to sales denominated in GBP. These contracts, which settle monthly until 30 September 2022, have a total notional amount of £3.1 million (2021: £3.9 million) and have been accounted for at fair value through the profit and loss. The fair value at year end was a liability of $8,846 (2021: $54,240 liability). During the year ended 30 June 2022, the Group recognised $73,679 in realised losses (2021: $202,892 gain) and $225,444 in unrealised gains on derivatives (2021: $563,280 loss). This has been included in finance income or costs in the income statement. Exposure to currency risk A summary of quantitative data about the Group’s exposure to currency risk on financial assets and liabilities at year end is as follows: 30 June 2022 30 June 2021 Note C2 C7 AUD $’000 1,592 GBP £’000 3,847 (1,099) (311) USD $’000 3,838 (794) AUD $’000 2,574 (625) GBP £’000 2,722 (254) USD $’000 1,302 (419) 493 3,536 3,044 1,949 2,468 883 - 3,100 - - 3,900 - Trade receivables Trade payables Net statement of financial position exposure Notional amount of foreign currency derivatives 86 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION H OTHER INFORMATION (continued) Sensitivity analysis At 30 June, exchange rates used to translate the above were 0.5676 to the GBP and 0.6886 to the USD (2021: 0.5426 to the GBP and 0.7512 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 2021, using consistent foreign exchange rate variances, as indicated below. 30 June 2022 GBP (10% movement) USD (10% movement) 30 June 2021 GBP (10% movement) USD (10% movement) Profit or loss (net of tax) Equity (net of tax) Strengthening $’000 Weakening $’000 Strengthening $’000 Weakening $’000 (436) (309) (318) (82) 396 281 289 75 (436) (309) (318) (82) 396 281 289 75 Interest rate risk At the end of the reporting period the interest rate profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments as reported to the management of the Group was as follows: Fixed rate instruments Financial assets Financial liabilities Variable rate instruments Financial assets Financial liabilities Nominal amount 2022 $’000 5,000 - 5,000 2021 $’000 - - - 16,499 19,857 - - 16,499 19,857 C1 F1 C1 F1 87 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION H OTHER INFORMATION (continued) Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments A change of 100 basis points in interest rates at the beginning of reporting period would have increased or (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below.

H2 Related party information Certain key management personnel, or their related parties, hold positions in other entities that result in them having control, joint control or significant influence over the financial or operating policies of these entities. A number of these entities transacted with the Group during the year. The terms and conditions of the transactions with key management personnel and their related parties were no more favourable than those available, or which might reasonably be expected to be available, on similar transactions to non-key management personnel related entities on an arm’s length basis. The aggregate value of transactions and outstanding balances relating to key management personnel and entities over which they have control, joint control or significant influence were as follows: Entity Transaction Bayswater Road Radiators Pty Ltd (i) Sales of goods Triple Eight Race Engineering Pty Ltd (ii) Sales of goods Triple Eight Race Engineering Pty Ltd (ii) Purchases of goods Transaction values during the year Balance outstanding Receivable/(Payable) 2022 $’000 2021 $’000 N/A 81 (20) 51 5 - 2022 $’000 N/A - - 2021 $’000 6 - - (i) Bayswater Road Radiators Pty Ltd is no longer an entity associated with Kees Weel, which purchased goods from the Group.

The financial effect of the 2022 declared final dividend has not been brought to account in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022. Other than the matter noted above, there has not arisen in the interval since the end of the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors of the Group, to affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years. H5 New accounting standards 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 2021. A number of other new standards are effective from 1 July 2021 but they did not have a material effect on the Group’s financial statements. New Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2022 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. 89 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 Income tax Inventories SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 1.

Government Grants 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. 90 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 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. Termination benefits Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Group recognises costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date, then they are discounted. Defined contribution funds Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed as the related service is provided. 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. 91 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 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. 92 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) The estimated useful lives are as follows: Land and buildings Plant and equipment Motor vehicles 2022 2021 10-27 years 10-27 years 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. 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 1 vote per share at meetings of the Company. 93 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 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. 12 Leases Leased assets The Group, as a lessee, assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. 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. Right of use assets are presented as Property, Plant and Equipment. However, the Group has elected not to recognise right of use assets and 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 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 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 measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. 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 assets recognised. 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. 94 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2022 SECTION I SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 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. 95 Annual Report 2022 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOTADDITIONAL INFORMATIONLEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCEDIRECTORS’ REPORTFINANCIAL STATEMENTS HOW WE CREATE SUSTAINABLE VALUEDELIVERING VALUEFINANCIAL STATEMENTS Directors’ Declaration For the year ended 30 June 2022 DIRECTORS’ DECLARATION 1.

In our opinion, the accompanying Financial Report of the Company is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: • • giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2022 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. Basis for opinion The Financial Report comprises: • Consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2022; • Consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, Consolidated statement of changes in equity, and Consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; • Notes including a summary of significant accounting policies; and • Directors’ Declaration. The Group consists of the Company and the entities it controlled at the year-end or from time to time during the financial year. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the Financial Report in Australia. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. Key Audit Matters Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Financial Report of the current period. This matter was addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on this matter.

The Group uses complex value-in-use 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. Significant forward looking assumptions applied in their value in use modes include forecast revenue growth, EBIT margin and discount rates applied on net cash flows. 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. 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 revenue growth, EBIT margin 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 C&R’s ability to convert OEM and emerging technology opportunities. We compared forecast growth rates to published analyst reports for comparable companies, and considered differences for the Group’s operations. 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. • 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. 98 98 Financial StatementsPWR Holdings Limited Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of PWR Holdings Limited For the year ended 30 June 2022 Other Information Other Information is financial and non-financial information in PWR Holding 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 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.
