the business for higher volume manufacturing of advanced carbon fibre
components and assemblies in the future. We have invested heavily in
additional process capability at our Bankstown facilities to accommodate
higher levels of expected production for the JSF program over the coming years
and we have established a new facility in Waurn Ponds to support development
programs for our growing New Technology activities.
Quickstep’s vision is to become a
world leader in advanced composites
manufacturing and we are now achieving
significant progress in technology
development. To achieve this vision,
we need to have a highly capable
management and R&D team, we need
the necessary assets on the ground
to manufacture parts and we need
to undertake several development
and demonstrator projects to fully
commercialise and validate our
New Technology. In FY16 we set about
putting all these elements in place,
as a foundation for our future growth
and expansion.
Our financial results for FY16 reflect our
continued focus on growth, with sales
revenue rising from A$39.5 million in FY15
to A$50.1 million in FY16. This revenue
increase was predominantly the result
of aerospace growth for both our C-130J
and JSF programs. As at 30 June 2016,
we have a forward order book valued in
excess of A$120 million. This includes
committed orders from Lockheed Martin,
Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems for
C-130J and JSF Program components.
Manufacturing under these committed
orders will extend through to FY19.
Earnings before interest, tax, research
and development and significant
items for FY16 were A$4.0 million,
up 200% from A$1.3 million in FY15,
driven by Quickstep’s Aerospace
Manufacturing activities.
During the course of FY16, Quickstep
successfully completed a fully
underwritten A$22 million (before costs)
capital raising. The raising is being used
to fund capital expenditure associated
with our forward sales pipeline; to
strengthen our balance sheet by reducing
short term debt; to set up Quickstep’s
New Technology R&D and manufacturing
facility at Waurn Ponds; and enable
Quickstep to continue to commercialise
the application of the company’s existing
technologies. These programs are all in
line with expectations.

Technology (KIST): Manufacture and
supply of composite manufacturing
equipment, including our patented
RST and Qure technologies, to a
South Korean research institute
$50.6m
Up 23% from $41.3m
With regard to capital expenditure,
we invested over A$4.0 million in
FY16 in support of our growth plans
for our Bankstown and Waurn Ponds
manufacturing operations. In Bankstown
this investment has gone into additional
manufacturing capacity to support the
contracted C-130J and JSF programs and
further programs currently in discussion.
In Waurn Ponds we have invested in the
establishment of a New Technology R&D
and manufacturing facility. The Waurn
Ponds site features a fully operational
Resin Spray Transfer (RST) cell and Qure
machine, along with other manufacturing
equipment to produce advanced
composite components and assemblies.
We received grants relating to capital
of A$0.6 million for the Waurn Ponds
investment. I would like to take this time
to acknowledge the support given to us
for this activity, through the Geelong
Region Innovation and Investment Fund
(GRIIF), an initiative funded by the
Federal and Victorian governments and
Ford Australia.
FY16 saw a significant strengthening
of our management team, with the
recruitment of a number of senior
management personnel in the fields of
Operations, Finance, Engineering, Human
Resources and Business Development. We
now have a highly capable management
team, with extensive aerospace,
broader manufacturing and automotive
experience, who are experienced in
establishing and running advanced
manufacturing facilities globally as well
as in Australia.
Our R&D team has been significantly
strengthened with the relocation of our
Global R&D and Technology Centre from
Munich, Germany, to Deakin University’s
Waurn Ponds Campus in Victoria. We
now have a highly skilled team operating
there, supported by a long-term Strategic

CEO and
Managing Director’s
Report
I am pleased to report that in FY16 Quickstep has continued to make substantial
progress towards becoming a leading global provider of advanced composite
components and manufacturing processes for the aerospace, defence, marine,
automotive and other transportation sectors. The aerospace manufacturing
business is growing and profitable. Investment has been boosted in our new
technology business to enable Quickstep to work on a number of collaborative
development programs with our customers to deliver future growth.
In FY16 we achieved an increase in
sales revenue of 27% to A$50.1 million,
compared to A$39.5 million in the
previous year. We delivered 35 ship-sets
to Lockheed Martin for the C-130J
program in FY16. We also increased the
production rate of components for the
Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program, with
558 JSF parts delivered to Northrop
Grumman in the year and we achieved
successful qualification of our parts for
the JSF vertical tails project with BAE
Systems. The first 32 vertical tail parts
have been supplied to Marand Precision
Engineering Pty Ltd (Marand), for the final
Vertical Tail assembly.
We have delivered strongly in support
of our committed Aerospace programs
at Bankstown. Our firm order book now
stands in excess of A$120 million, up 67%
on the prior year, and reflects increased
orders for Quickstep’s JSF and C-130J
aerospace contracts.
Our vision is to become a world leader
in advanced composites manufacturing
and we have set about achieving this
through the further industrialisation of
our process technologies and undertaking
a number of development programs,
in two key areas:
– Aerospace Manufacturing:
As a proven manufacturer of advanced
carbon fibre composite components and
complex assemblies for the Defence
Aerospace sector, we are actively in
discussions with both existing and
new customers for the increased
manufacturing of ‘build to print’
components
– New Technology:
Quickstep has developed patented
process technologies for the
manufacturing of composite components.
We are currently collaborating with
a number of potential customers on
the development of demonstrator
parts utilising our proprietary process
technologies and unique engineered
solutions. Our intention is to achieve
strong customer value propositions
for the supply of exterior panels,
skins and interior structures for the
growing Automotive and Aerospace
composite markets.
Aerospace Manufacturing
Aerospace Manufacturing sales for
FY16 were up 46% to $49.2 million and
achieved a gross profit increase of 49%
compared to the prior corresponding
period (pcp) underpinned by strong
JSF growth and higher than average
production of C-130J wing flaps. The
increase in profitability from Aerospace
manufacturing ensures that capital
expenditure at Bankstown is funded
by its own earnings.
Capital expenditure programs continued
in preparation for the planned growth
in the JSF program and the ramp up
in Vertical Tail production. In addition,
significant investment in production
optimisation of the C-130J project
was made, with state of the art highly
automated robotic drilling program
underway. It is expected that the major
capital investment will be completed
during FY17 which will facilitate further
‘build to print’ growth at Bankstown.
Employment numbers increased at
Bankstown underpinning both current
and anticipated sales growth. Employee
training and development continues as
the JSF team targets a 100 parts per
month production rate and the return
to a long term C-130J production rate of
24 ship sets per year. This has allowed
for the transfer of skilled production
employees into the JSF program.
With the increased volume,
manufacturing optimisation in the
key areas of labour utilisation, asset
performance, inventory and scrap
reduction remain a key focus of our
growing Aerospace Manufacturing
business to optimise performance.
New Technology Industrialisation
Throughout FY16 we continued to advance
the industrialisation of both our Qure and
Resin Spray Transfer (RST) technologies
for use in the aerospace, defence, marine,
automotive and other transportation
sectors. These disruptive processes
provide significant value propositions,
in terms of cost, process speed and
quality to our targeted customers and
these technologies are especially relevant
to end-users with parts programs in the
volume range of up to 30,000 units
per annum.
Our industrialisation activities have
focussed on development and application
of both our Qure and RST technologies to
manufacture components for end-users
in our targeted industry sectors. Over
the course of the next 18 months, we
are targeting a number of niche volume
projects, while continuing to develop and
scale-up our next-generation RapidQure
technology which will provide increased
volume capability to enable us to secure
larger production projects.
Also in FY16 we commenced a number
of advanced composite projects that are
establishing our credentials and solution
capabilities outside the aerospace sector
and this will lead to additional supply
opportunities in both the domestic and
export markets. These projects include
activities with Ford Australia, Thales
Australia, Korea Institute of Science and
Technology (KIST), DCNS Group (a French
naval shipbuilding company and European
leader in naval defence), and several
other composite end-users.

Ford Falcon XR6 Sprint
In early FY16, we secured a contract with
Ford Australia to manufacture carbon
fibre air intake ducts for the Ford Falcon
XR6 Sprint sports car. Manufacturing
commenced at Waurn Ponds in February
2016 and successfully demonstrated
the company’s ability to move from
contract to production start-up in under
8 months and to deliver 377 components
by 30 June. This sports car is the first
global mass-produced Ford to feature
a carbon fibre air intake system and
the first commercial automotive vehicle
to feature a part made by Quickstep.
Importantly, the project has shown
rate production, quality and delivery
performance capability to Ford which
provides confidence for future programs.
It has also provided an opportunity
to participate in the Automotive
Transformation Scheme (ATS), an
AusIndustry fund supporting investment
in Innovation in the automotive sector.
Thales Hawkei Project
In October 2015, the Federal Government
confirmed that Thales Australia was
successful in securing the supply contract
to build the next generation of armoured
vehicles for the Australian Defence Force.
Quickstep is contracted to manufacture
a range of composite body parts for
Thales Australia.
Quickstep has already completed the
first set of composite parts for Thales
Australia’s Hawkei light protected vehicle,
for which it is the exclusive supplier of
the bonnet, side skirts and mud guards.
Before the end of September 2016,
ten sets of parts comprising more than
190 individual components. Low-volume
production for this project is expected
to commence in FY17.

Korea Institute of Science and
Technology (KIST)
In April 2016, Quickstep entered into
an agreement with KIST, a major South
Korean research centre, to design and
install an RST cell and Qure machine for
R&D purposes, supporting the automotive
and aerospace sectors in South Korea.
We plan to supply this manufacturing
equipment to KIST by end of calendar
2016. The manufacturing system for KIST
will be optimised for niche- to medium-
volume automotive industry production.
This contract opens up potential
component supply opportunities for
Quickstep in South Korea, one of
the world’s largest automotive
production markets.
Collaborative Development Focus
During the year Quickstep decided to
enter into a number of collaborative
development projects intended to
deliver commercial parts for the end-user
and advance the industrialisation of
our New Technology offerings.
These projects involve the design of
composite alternatives for existing
metal parts or developing demonstrator
parts for evaluation or demonstrate
improved production rates to current
autoclave processes. Development,
manufacturing, planning and testing
for these projects is expected to lead
to production opportunities with our
collaboration partners.
Quickstep is currently engaged in several
development projects with tier-1 industry
suppliers for interior structures and
external panels and skins. These projects
are expected to lead to niche production
contracts utilising Quickstep’s Qure and
RST technologies in the near future.
An example of this collaborative process
was the Memorandum of Understanding
(MoU) with DCNS Group, a European
leader in naval defence. DCNS has been
selected by Australian Government as
preferred partner for design of twelve
submarines for Royal Australian Navy.
This MoU is for joint cooperation in
technology transfer, R&D projects and
component manufacturing opportunities.

Board Structure & Director Independence
Insurance of officers and indemnities
Quickstep Holdings Limited
Directors’ report
30 June 2016
Quickstep Holdings Limited
Directors’ report
30 June 2016
The Company continually monitors the structure and performance of the Board to ensure it is of an appropriate size,
composition and skill to lead the Company and meet its current governance and strategic needs.
Except as indicated below, the Group has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or
agreed to indemnify an officer of the Group or any of any related body corporate against a liability incurred as an officer.
The Chairman manages the Board to achieve responsive and effective business outcomes with highly committed
directors. Quickstep has a Remuneration, Nomination and Diversity Committee (RND Committee), whose responsibilities
include the development and on-going review of Board competencies, structure, performance and renewal. Both the RND
Committee Charter and “Policy and Procedure for Selection and Appointment of Directors” are accessible from the
Company’s website as follows.
(http://www.quickstep.com.au/files/files/359_QHL_RND_Committee_Charter_-_September_2014.pdf
http://www.quickstep.com.au/files/files/366_QHL_Selection_and_Appointment_of_Directors_Policy_V1_-_02102014.pdf
The Policy and Procedure for Selection and Appointment of Directors includes a matrix of skills that are considered
necessary within the independent non-executive director group to facilitate an effective and efficient Board. The RND
Committee periodically reviews both this matrix and the directors’ actual skills mix to ensure they satisfy the current and
immediately foreseeable needs of the Company.
The Board maintains a varied level of tenure amongst its directors, which is seen as essential for its effective functioning
given the significant growth and change experienced by Quickstep in recent years. This has resulted in both an influx of
fresh ideas and the retention of sufficient Quickstep specific understanding to optimise strategic and operational changes.
As the business evolves this is continually reviewed.
The Board is committed to a majority of its directors being independent to ensure the Board acts in the best interest of the
entity itself, its security holders and stakeholders generally. Director independence is assessed on a regular basis, and all
directors are required to advise the Board of any actual or potential conflicts of interest as they arise, with any such
conflicts tabled at Board meetings.
In assessing independence the Board considers a number of factors which include, but are not limited to, the “Factors
relevant to assessing the independence of a director” listed in Recommendation 2.3 of the Corporate Governance
Principles and Recommendations 3rd Edition established by the ASX Corporate Governance Council (‘the ASX Principles
and Recommendations”).

Remuneration Report (continued)
1. Principles of compensation (continued)
Compensation levels for key management personnel of the Group are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately
qualified and experienced directors and executives. The remuneration structures are designed to reward the achievement
of strategic objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. Compensation packages
include a mix of fixed compensation, short-term cash incentives and equity-based incentives.
Shares, options or rights may only be issued to directors subject to approval by shareholders in a general meeting.
The Group does not have any scheme relating to retirement benefits for its key management personnel other than
contributions defined under its statutory obligations.
The Company’s policy is to provide executives with a competitive fixed compensation comparable to the median paid by
like sized companies undertaking similar work and offers additional short and long term incentives to allow the executive
to achieve top quartile compensation, if all performance hurdles are met. All incentives are capped.
The Company’s policy is to provide non-executive directors with a fixed fee comparable to the median of that paid by
similar sized ASX listed companies operating in similar fields. Non-executive directors are not eligible for participation in
Fixed compensation consists of base compensation, as well as statutory employer contributions to superannuation.
Compensation levels are reviewed annually through a process that considers current labour market rates, the individual's
contribution and overall performance of the Group. Compensation is also reviewed in the event of promotion or significant
Performance linked compensation includes both short and long term incentives and is designed to reward key
management personnel, excluding non-executive directors, for meeting or exceeding the Company's business and their
personal objectives. Each individual’s performance linked compensation is capped as a percentage uplift of fixed
compensation. Other than as disclosed in this report, there have been no performance-linked payments made by the
any of the Company’s incentive schemes.

(a) Short term incentive
Cash and equity settled short term incentive
Certain executives receive short-term incentives (STI) in cash and/or shares on achievement of key performance
indicators (KPIs). Each year, the RN&D Committee considers the appropriate KPIs and associated targets to align
individual rewards to the Group’s desired performance. These targets may include measures related to the annual
performance of the Group, and/or specified parts of the Group.
In FY16 12 Corporate KPIs were used, including five financial KPIs, two business development KPIs, two operational
KPIs and three strategic KPIs. The weighting of corporate KPIs used in the determination of an executive’s STI ranged
from 70% for functional specialists to 100% for the Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer.
The RN&D Committee is responsible for assessing whether the KPIs have been achieved and meet the criteria set out at
the beginning of the year. Each year a limited number of corporate KPIs are designated as threshold metrics, with no STI
payable to any executive if these are not achieved. In FY16 there were two threshold metrics.
Actual performance is then assessed against both a target outcome and a stretch outcome. Generally, where
performance falls below the target outcome no payment is made against that KPI and where performance exceeds the
stretch outcome the stretch cap is payable. Generally, where performance falls between target and stretch outcomes an
appropriate proportion of the KPI is payable. When the target is achieved 50% of the weighting for the KPIs is payable.
When both the target and stretch outcomes are achieved 100% of the weighting for the KPIs is payable.
Where a proportion of STI is payable in shares, the number of shares issued is based on the accrued equity settled STI
value, less $1,000 which is paid as cash not shares, divided by the weighted average share price on the date the shares
were/are granted.
After determining the overall achievement of KPIs based on the above review process, the RN&D Committee has
recommended no STI is payable in respect of FY16 due to the threshold metrics not being achieved. The Board of
Quickstep has approved this recommendation.

Quickstep Holdings Limited
Directors’ report
30 June 2016
Compensation levels for key management personnel of the Group are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately
qualified and experienced directors and executives. The remuneration structures are designed to reward the achievement
of strategic objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. Compensation packages
include a mix of fixed compensation, short-term cash incentives and equity-based incentives.
Shares, options or rights may only be issued to directors subject to approval by shareholders in a general meeting.
The Group does not have any scheme relating to retirement benefits for its key management personnel other than
contributions defined under its statutory obligations.
The Company’s policy is to provide executives with a competitive fixed compensation comparable to the median paid by
like sized companies undertaking similar work and offers additional short and long term incentives to allow the executive
to achieve top quartile compensation, if all performance hurdles are met. All incentives are capped.
The Company’s policy is to provide non-executive directors with a fixed fee comparable to the median of that paid by
similar sized ASX listed companies operating in similar fields. Non-executive directors are not eligible for participation in
any of the Company’s incentive schemes.
Fixed compensation
Fixed compensation consists of base compensation, as well as statutory employer contributions to superannuation.
Compensation levels are reviewed annually through a process that considers current labour market rates, the individual's
contribution and overall performance of the Group. Compensation is also reviewed in the event of promotion or significant
change in responsibilities.
Performance linked compensation
Performance linked compensation includes both short and long term incentives and is designed to reward key
management personnel, excluding non-executive directors, for meeting or exceeding the Company's business and their
personal objectives. Each individual’s performance linked compensation is capped as a percentage uplift of fixed
compensation. Other than as disclosed in this report, there have been no performance-linked payments made by the

Directors’ Report

Remuneration Report (continued)
1. Principles of compensation (continued)
(b) Long term incentive
Overview
Quickstep Holdings Limited
Directors’ report
30 June 2016
Quickstep Holdings Limited
Directors’ report
30 June 2016
During FY16 the Company operated two long term incentive plans in use, an Employee Incentive Plan (EIP) and an
Incentive Rights Plan (IRP), but as at 30 June 2016 the EIP ceased to operate due to the departure from the Company of
Mr. P Odouard, the only executive that held options under that plan.
Quickstep Employee Incentive Plan (EIP)
In November 2009 the Company established the Quickstep Employee Incentive Plan (EIP).
Under the EIP, the Board could grant options to selected Quickstep employees on such terms as it determined
appropriate. Participation in the EIP was open to all employees of the Group, with the Board determining those employees
eligible to participate in each grant under the EIP, but in practice, options had only been issued to one executive, Mr. P
Odouard – and due to his departure on 30 June 2016 all entitlements to options have lapsed and the plan has ceased to
operate. Each option has a conditional right to one Quickstep ordinary share, subject to the satisfaction of the applicable
performance conditions.
In general, options granted under the EIP do not vest until the performance criteria specified by the Board at the time of
the grant have been achieved and provided the participant remains a Group employee. If the performance criteria are not
satisfied at the end of the applicable performance period the options lapse. The options may lapse in other circumstances
provided for in the EIP rules, including forfeiture where the employee engages in dishonest or fraudulent conduct, where
there is a change in control and where the employee ceases employment. Subject to the rules and the term of the grant,
options lapse on the seventh anniversary of their grant date, given consideration to the applicable claw back
arrangements.
The options granted from the EIP are subject to performance conditions based on achieving pre-set absolute Total
Shareholder Return (TSR) targets over the applicable performance period. In summary, TSR combines share price
appreciation over a period and dividends paid during that period to show the total return to shareholders over that period.
For the purposes of the performance conditions attached to the options, TSR will be calculated as the 45 day volume
weighted average price (VWAP) of Quickstep shares as at a test date (30 June or 31 August). The options vest on the day
after the test date. This calculation has been adopted bearing in mind Quickstep’s market capitalisation and to ensure the
performance hurdle and testing process remain appropriate in all the circumstances. All options are subject to a minimum
three year performance condition from their grant date and are tested annually until they lapse seven years after grant
date. At each re-testing date TSR hurdles are increased by an annual growth rate as set out in the table below.
If the Threshold hurdle of TSR is achieved at a test date, 25% of the options in the tranche will vest. If the Target hurdle of
TSR is achieved at a test date in any given year, 50% of options in the tranche will vest. If the Stretch hurdle of TSR is
achieved at a test date in any given year 100% of options in the tranche will vest. After the initial vesting period, re-testing
of the performance conditions occurs annually. Re-testing will occur annually until the options lapse and against the
higher TSR hurdle.

(b) Long term incentive (continued)
Quickstep Incentive Rights Plan (IRP)
In November 2013 the Company established the Quickstep Incentive Rights Plan (IRP). The IRP was designed to
facilitate the Company moving towards best practice remuneration structures for executives, and offers under the IRP
have been made to a number of executives since its introduction.
The IRP authorises the granting of Rights to executives of the Company, in the form of Performance Rights (PRs) and/ or
Deferred Rights (DRs) and/or Restricted Rights - (RRs) (together, Rights). These rights represent an entitlement on
vesting to fully paid ordinary shares in the issued capital of the Company (Shares) and cash with the total value of cash
and shares being equal to the value of vested Rights (number of vested Rights x market value of a Share). PRs may vest
if Performance Conditions are satisfied. DRs may vest if service conditions are satisfied. There were no RRs granted in
FY16 and none arose from PRs or DRs.
The Board has the discretion to set the terms and conditions on which it will offer PRs under the IRP, including the
performance conditions and modification of the terms and conditions as appropriate to ensuring the IRP operates as
intended. All PRs offered will be subject to performance conditions which are intended to be challenging.
The PRs are subject to a performance condition based on achieving a relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR) equivalent
to or in excess of the ASX All Ordinaries Accumulation Index (AOAI) over the performance period. The AOAI is an index
of total shareholder return achieved by ASX listed companies which combines both share price movement and dividends
paid during the performance period (assuming that they are reinvested into Shares). As a general rule, Quickstep uses a
performance period of three (3) years with an anniversary date of 1 September each year.
For vesting to occur the Company's TSR (share price movement plus dividends) over the performance period must be
positive (i.e. if shareholders have not gained then PRs will not vest) relative to the All Ordinaries Accumulation Index
(AOAI). If the Company's TSR is positive but the AOAI movement is negative over the performance period then vesting, if
any, will be at the discretion of the Board (i.e. only applies if the Company has outperformed a general fall in the market by
protecting against a similar fall in the Company's share price). If the Company's TSR is positive and the movement in the
AOAI is also positive then the following vesting scale will apply:
Performance Level

Stretch and above
120% of AOAI increase
Vesting %
0%
25% Pro-rata
60% Pro-rata
100%
For PRs issued to executives other than Mr. Marino, testing of the TSR hurdle will occur on the third anniversary of the
commencement of the performance period and then semi-annually until the rights lapse or the fifth anniversary of the
commencement of the performance period. PRs issued to Mr. Marino have various potential vesting dates depending on
the nature of the PR offer. Once a right has vested it may not become unvested based on performance at a subsequent
test date. If at a test date some rights have previously vested and the Company’s performance at the test date is higher
than at previous test dates then additional rights will vest. Such vesting will apply on the basis that the total number of
rights that have vested from a tranche (previous and current vesting) is equal to the number that would have vested at the
current test date had no vesting occurred earlier.
Upon the satisfaction of the performance conditions, the value of PRs granted under the IRP will be evaluated. The Board
has discretion to vary vesting if it considers it to be appropriate to do so given the circumstances that prevailed over the
performance period. This provision aims to address situations where vesting may otherwise be inconsistent with
shareholder expectations.
The IRP contains provisions concerning the treatment of vested and unvested rights in the event that a participant ceases
employment. Unless the Board determines otherwise, if a participant ceases employment in other than special
circumstances (death, total and permanent disablement, retrenchment, redundancy, permanent retirement from full-time
work with the consent of the Board or other circumstances determined by the Board), all unvested rights held by the
participant will lapse.
Unless the Board determines otherwise, if a participant ceases employment under special circumstances, rights that were
granted to the participant during the financial year in which the termination occurred will be lapsed in the same proportion
as the remainder of the financial year bears to the full year. All remaining rights for which performance conditions have not
been satisfied as at the date of cessation of employment will then remain "on foot", subject to the original performance
conditions.

If an employee ceases employment with the Group due to death, disability, bona fide redundancy or any other reason
which may meet with the approval of the Board, the Board may determine that any unvested options they hold will vest as
at the date of cessation, having regard to such factors as the Board considers relevant, including pro rata performance
against the performance condition over the period from the grant date to the date of cessation. If an employee ceases
employment in these circumstances and holds vested options, they may exercise those options within a 12 month period
following the date of cessation (or, the remaining period until the expiry of the options, if less than 12 months). If an
employee ceases employment for any other reason any unvested options they hold will lapse on the date of cessation
unless the Board determines otherwise. Any vested options must be exercised within three months.

(1) STI (Short Term Incentive) is determined on performance against key performance indicators (KPIs) set and
reviewed by the RN&D Committee or the Board as appropriate. The STI cap refers to the maximum amount
payable in cash (other than Mr. Marino, whose STI is payable in a combination of cash and shares), as a
percentage of Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR). The KPIs include company financial objectives, such as order
intake, profit and cash flow, and personal objectives including control of responsibility centre expenditure and
functional outcomes aligned to the annual strategic plan.
(2) LTI (Long Term Incentive) is determined on the Group's performance against relative Total Shareholder Return
and is tested at multiple dates. The LTI cap refers to the maximum amount payable in shares as a percentage of
Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR). This is the measure currently used in the IRP applicable to the 2016 financial
year.
(3) NES refers to the National Employment Standard, in the Fair Work Act (2009). Under section (3) (ss117-118) an
employee is entitled to a minimum notice period depending on length of service and age.

(1) STI (Short Term Incentive) is determined on performance against key performance indicators (KPIs) set and
reviewed by the RN&D Committee or the Board as appropriate. The STI cap refers to the maximum amount
payable in cash (other than Mr. Marino, whose STI is payable in a combination of cash and shares), as a
percentage of Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR). The KPIs include company financial objectives, such as order
intake, profit and cash flow, and personal objectives including control of responsibility centre expenditure and
functional outcomes aligned to the annual strategic plan.
(2) LTI (Long Term Incentive) is determined on the Group's performance against relative Total Shareholder Return
and is tested at multiple dates. The LTI cap refers to the maximum amount payable in shares as a percentage of
Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR). This is the measure currently used in the IRP applicable to the 2016 financial
year.
(3) NES refers to the National Employment Standard, in the Fair Work Act (2009). Under section (3) (ss117-118) an
employee is entitled to a minimum notice period depending on length of service and age.

(1) Equity based STI includes an accrual of estimated STI relating to the current year to be settled through share
based payments net of any prior year accrual adjustments.
(2) Options and rights include the accounting expense attributable to the current year of both the EIP and IRP.
(3) The Short Term Incentive (STI) is comprised of an accrued current year cash bonus plus adjustment for
differences between the amount accrued during the prior financial year and the amount paid in the current
financial year. This adjustment results in a negative expense appearing in the tables above in relation to
executives for whom the prior year accrual exceeded the payment made in the current year in respect of the prior
year. For FY16, the RN&D Committee has recommended no STI is payable due to the threshold metrics not
being achieved. The Board of Quickstep has approved this recommendation and it is reflected in the table above.
(4)
Includes full year figures for Mr. Odouard – covering both roles in FY16 – Executive Director from1 July 2015 to
15 October 2015 and as General Manager, Strategy and Business Development (Aerospace & Defence) from 16
October 2015 until his departure on 30 June 2016.
(5) The STI cash bonus for Mr. Quick represents ex-gratia payment for achievements during his interim appointment
as Executive Chairman from 29 May 2014 to 15 February 2015, The RN&D committee calculated the quantum of
the payment on the same basis as the current CEO’s STI incentive i.e. 41.5% x 50% x TFR, being only those fees
relating to his executive duties and not his ongoing chairman fees.

The calculation of basic loss per share at 30 June 2016 was based on the loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of
$5,785,000 (2015 $3,937,000) and a weighted average number (W.A.N.) of ordinary shares outstanding during the
financial year ended 30 June 2016 of 495,782,664 (2015 397,663,615) calculated as follows:

On 1 November 2011 Quickstep Technologies Pty Ltd, a subsidiary Company of the Group, executed an Export Finance
Facility Agreement with Australian and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) (Financier) and Export Finance and
Insurance Corporation (EFIC) (Guarantor) to fund certain capital expenditure. The Agreement provides for a loan facility of
up to $10,000,000 plus capitalised interest of up to $3,333,000.
Loan repayments commenced on 30 April 2016, with the final repayment due in 2021.
Interest is to be capitalised until the maximum facility value of $3,333,333 is reached. At 30 June 2016 the interest facility
has been drawn to $1,882,000, after paying in this financial year an amount of $83,000 (2015 Nil).
The interest rate on the facility comprises a variable base rate, a fixed margin payable to the Financier and a fixed
guarantee fee payable to the Guarantor. Unused limit fees are payable to both the Financier and the Guarantor on the
undrawn principle balance.
The facility includes an interest rate cap which limits the maximum rate applicable to the base rate for the duration of the
capitalisation period to 5.03%. This cap ensures that the interest accruing on the facility remains within the capitalised
interest limit. The cost of the cap has been recorded as prepaid borrowing cost and is recognised in the profit and loss
through the effective interest rate method, with a carrying value of $160,000 at 30 June 2016 (2015 $394,000).
EFIC has agreed to guarantee certain of the subsidiary’s obligations under the facility. The subsidiary has provided EFIC
with a fixed and floating charge over its assets and undertakings. The carrying value of total assets pledged as collateral
at 30 June 2016 is $34,831,000 (2015 $23,173,000) which represents the cash and cash equivalents, plant and
equipment, inventory and other assets owned by Quickstep Technologies Pty Ltd.

(ii) Secured bank loan (continued)
Under this agreement, Quickstep Technologies Pty Ltd (Chargor) has agreed to the following restrictions on title on any of
the assets under which EFIC (Chargee) has a fixed charge over. Without the consent of the Chargee, the Chargor may
not:
•
•
•
dispose of the Secured Property; or
lease or license the Secured Property or any interest in it, or deal with any existing lease or licence; or
part with possession of the Secured Property; or
• waive any of the Chargor’s rights or release any person from its obligations in connection with the

Quickstep Holdings Limited has entered into a subordination agreement which subordinates certain intercompany debts
due to it from Quickstep Technologies Pty Ltd to the amounts due under the Export Finance Facility. The face value of this
subordinated intercompany debt at 30 June 2016 is $94,570,000 (2015 $88,017,000) and its carrying value net of
impairment is $55,190,000 (2015 $35,979,000).
(iii) Short term facility – Efic
Quickstep Holdings Limited was party to a short term debt facility provided by the Export Finance and Insurance
Corporation. Quickstep repaid this debt facility in full on 31 December 2015.
(iv) Short term facility – Newmarket loan
In February 2015 a $3,000,000 debt facility was secured from Newmarket Financing Management Pty Ltd and Associates
(Newmarket). This facility provided short-term working capital support to assist Quickstep’s long term growth as its
deliveries for the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) and Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules programs
accelerated.
Quickstep repaid the debt facility in full on 30 October 2015. At the date of repayment the loan had a carrying value of
$1,573,475. The $1,426,525 difference between the carrying amount and the $3,000,000 repaid has been recognised in
the profit and loss as an interest expense.
The difference is a consequence of the initial fair value of the options noted below being deferred against the $3,000,000
face value of the loan on inception and then amortised through profit and loss using the effective interest rate method over
the 18 month term of the loan. For the financial year $720,303 of interest expense has been recognised in profit and loss
using the effective interest rate method. The total recognised interest expense on the Newmarket facility during the
financial year is, therefore, $2,146,555. The actual interest paid during the financial year in respect of this facility was
$121,069.
As partial consideration for providing the loan, Quickstep has issued 25 million options to Newmarket to acquire ordinary
shares in Quickstep. These options expire on 31 December 2018. Following the capital raise completed by Quickstep
during FY16 the exercise price of the options has been set at 16.25 cents per share.
The options were revalued to a fair value of 2.8 cents (2015 6.5 cents) per share or $700,000 at 30 June 2016 (2015
$1,625,000). The gain of $925,000 (2015 $1,000,000) has been recognised through the profit and loss as finance income

11. Financial instruments – fair values and risk management
The Group has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:
(a)
Overview
• Credit risk
•
Liquidity risk, and
• Market risk.
This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and
processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included
throughout these financial statements.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework
and is responsible for developing and monitoring risk management policies.
Risk management policies 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 policies and systems are reviewed
regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through training and management
standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees
understand their roles and obligations.
The Group’s Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s
risk management policies and formally documented procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management
framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group.
(b)
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 and cash balances and
deposits.
(i) Trade receivables
The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However,
management also considers other characteristics including the demographics of the Group’s customer base, the default
risk of the industry and country in which customers operate, as these factors may have an influence on credit risk.
Goods are generally sold subject to retention of title clauses, so that in the event of non-payment the Group may have a
secured claim. The Group does not require collateral in respect of trade and other receivables.
(ii) Cash balances and deposits
The Group limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have a
credit rating of at least A+ from Standard & Poor’s. Given these high credit ratings, management has assessed the risk
that counterparties fail to meet their obligations as low.
As at the reporting date, financial assets are neither past due or impaired.
(iii) Exposure to credit risks
The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The Group’s maximum
exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:

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 liquid assets to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal
and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
Typically, the Group ensures that it has sufficient cash or funds otherwise reasonably available to it from fundraising
activities to meet expected operational expenses, including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the
potential impact of circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted. Further details are set out in note 19.
(i) Maturities of financial assets
The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments and excluding the
impact of netting agreements:

Market risk
(i) Interest rate risk
interest rate 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.
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk predominantly on cash balances and deposits. Given the relatively short
investment horizon for these, management has not found it necessary to establish a policy on managing the exposure of
The Group has entered into a variable rate secured loan agreement for a period of 10 years. The facility includes an
allowance to defer interest payments up to $3,333,333 and interest will be accrued on deferred amount. Interest is re-set
on a monthly basis in accordance with the 30 days bank bill rate. The facility includes an interest rate cap which limits the
bank bill rate component of the variable rate to a maximum of 5.03%. This limit will ensure that the interest to be
capitalised will not exceed the capitalisation limit.

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments
The Group does not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Therefore a
change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.
Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments
A change of 100 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased (decreased) profit or loss by the
amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain
constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2015.

The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and cash holdings that are denominated in a currency other
than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, primarily the Australian dollar (AUD), Euro (EUR) and US
Dollar (USD). The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are AUD, EUR and USD.
In respect of other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Group ensures that its net
exposure is kept to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address
short-term imbalances.
The Group’s investment in its German subsidiary is not hedged as the currency positions are considered to be long-term
in nature.

The Company previously established the Quickstep Employee Incentive Plan (EIP). Under the EIP, the Board could grant
options to selected Quickstep employees on such terms as it determined appropriate. Participation in the EIP was open to
all employees of the Group, with the Board determining those employees eligible to participate in each grant under the
EIP. Each option was a conditional right to one Quickstep ordinary share, subject to the satisfaction of the applicable
performance conditions and payment of the exercise price (if any). Further details regarding the EIP are set out in the
Remuneration Report.
Mr. P Odouard was the only employee to be granted options pursuant to the EIP. On 30 June 2016 Mr. P Odouard
departed, as a result all options lapsed and this Plan has now ceased to operate.

(b)
Quickstep Incentive Rights Plan (IRP)
During the 2014 financial year the Company established the Quickstep Incentive Rights Plan (IRP).
The IRP was designed to facilitate the Company moving towards best practice remuneration structures for executives.
The IRP authorises the granting of Rights to executives of the Company, in the form of Performance Rights (PRs) and/or
Deferred Rights (DRs) (together, Rights). These rights represent an entitlement on vesting to fully paid ordinary shares in
the issued capital of the Company (Shares) and cash with the total value of cash and Shares being equal to the value of
vested Rights (number of vested Rights x market value of a Share). PRs may vest if Performance Conditions are satisfied.
DRs may vest if service conditions are satisfied. Further details regarding the IRP are set out in the Remuneration Report.
At 30 June 2016 executives accrued rights pursuant to the IRP.
During 2016 an expense of $143,000 (2015 $125,000) has been recognised in the financial statements in respect of the
portion of the fair value of rights attributable to the current financial year as required by accounting standards.
A Monte-Carlo model was used to value the rights per dollar issued. The model's key assumptions were as follows:

Equity settled short term incentive
Certain executives are eligible to receive short term incentives (STI) in cash and/or shares based on achievement of key
performance indicators (KPIs). Each year the RN&D Committee considers the appropriate targets and KPIs and the
alignment of individual rewards to the Group's performance. These targets may include measures related to the annual
performance of the Group and/or specified parts of the Group and are measured against actual outcomes. The number of
shares issued to executives is based on the accrued equity settled STI value divided by the weighted average share price
on the date the shares are granted.
In FY16 179,771 shares (2015 415,967) were issued to employees. Due to a reversal of an over accrued STI in FY15 an
expense of $(37,000) (2015 net increase of $80,000) was recognised.

19. Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated
financial statements, and have been applied consistently by all entities in the Group.
19. Significant accounting policies (continued)
(a) Reclassification of comparative information
Reporting entity
Quickstep Holdings Limited (“the Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial statements
of the Company comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group” and individually as
“Group Entities”). The Group is a for-profit entity. The Group is at the forefront of advanced composites manufacturing and
technology development and is the largest independent aerospace-grade advanced composite manufacturer in Australia,
currently partnering with some of the world’s largest aerospace/defence organisations and commencing penetration into
the automotive sector.
Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards
and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The
consolidated financial statements of the Group also comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 22 September 2016.
Basis of measurement
The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis. These consolidated financial statements are presented
in Australian dollars, which is the company’s functional currency.
Rounding of amounts
The company is of a kind referred to in Class Order 2016/191 issued by the Australian Securities and Investments
Commission, relating to the ‘rounding off” of amounts in the financial statements and directors’ report. Amounts in the
financial statements and directors’ report have therefore been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain
cases, to the nearest dollar.
Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AASBs requires management to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and
expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that
have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are described in the following notes:
Going concern
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group will
be able to meet its commitments as and when they fall due.
The Group has incurred a loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2016 of $5,785,000 (2015 loss after tax $3,937,000).
Included in this loss are certain individually material items, refer Note 4, to the value of $4,195,000.
The Company is in a net asset position with an appropriate level of cash holdings. The Directors consider that there are
reasonable grounds to expect the Group will be able to meet its commitments.

Certain line items in the Statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income has been reclassified to ensure
consistency in the treatment of costs with 2016. During 2016 the Group has recognised operating expenses as either cost
of sales, operational expenses, research and development expenses, corporate and administrative expenses and other
expenses (2015 cost of sales, operational expenses, research and development expenses, marketing expenses,
corporate and administrative expenses and other expenses). This change reflects the basis on which the expenses of the
Group are now being recorded.
(b) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Quickstep Holdings
Limited (“Company” or “parent entity”) as at 30 June 2016 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended.
Quickstep Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in the financial statements as the consolidated
entity or the Group.
A subsidiary is any entity controlled by the Company. 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. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group, and de-consolidated
from the date that control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated.
Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted
by the Group.
(c) Segment reporting
Determination and presentation of operating segments
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues
and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group’s other
components. All operating segments’ operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s CEO to make decisions
about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is

intangible assets other than goodwill.
(d) Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary
economic environment in which the entity operates, (the functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are
presented in Australian dollars, which is Quickstep Holdings Limited functional and presentation currency.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the
translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year and exchange rates are generally
recognised in profit and loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a
foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Foreign currency translation
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are
translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations,
excluding foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in
the foreign currency translation reserve in equity. When a foreign operation is disposed of, in part or in full, the relevant
amount in the foreign currency translation reserve is transferred to the statement of comprehensive income.
Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation, the
settlement of which is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, are considered to form part of a net investment
in a foreign operation and are recognised directly in equity in the foreign currency translation reserve.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are
net of returns, trade allowances, rebates.
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised in the profit and loss when persuasive evidence exists, usually in the form of an
executed sales agreement, that the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer,
recovery of consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of the goods can be estimated reliably,
there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.
Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised in the income statement in proportion to the stage of completion of
the transaction at balance sheet date. The stage of completion is assessed by reference to analysis of work performed.
To the extent to which amounts are received in advance of the provision of the related services, the amounts are recorded
as unearned income and credited to the statement of comprehensive income as earned.
Licence fee revenue is recognised on an accruals basis when the Group has the right to receive payment under the
relevant agreement and has performed its obligations.
Construction contracts
Construction contract revenue recognised results from the construction of Quickstep process machines. These machines
have been constructed based on specifically negotiated contracts with customers.
Contract revenue includes the initial amount agreed in the contract plus any variations in contract work, claims and
incentive payments, to the extent that it is probable that they will result in revenue and can be measured reliably.
If the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, then contract revenue is recognised in profit or loss in
proportion to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion is assessed with reference to manufacturing
schedules. Otherwise, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be
recoverable.
Contract expenses are collected and held in Inventory WIP when incurred they are recognised, when the contract revenue
is released in the statement of profit or loss as cost of sales.
(f) Government grants
Grants from the government that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised initially as deferred income
where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all grant conditions will be met and are
recognised in profit or loss as other income on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are
recognised. Grants that compensate the Group for the cost of an asset are recognised as a deduction in arriving at the
carrying value of the asset.
(g) Income tax
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax is recognised in profit and loss
except to the extent that it related to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other
comprehensive income.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or
substantially enacted at reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Current tax
payable also included any tax liability arising from the declaration of dividends.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax
liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted
for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the
time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax
rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to
apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
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.
Quickstep Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries have unused tax losses. However, no deferred tax balances have been
recognised, as it is considered that asset recognition criteria have not been met at this time.

(h) Leases
over the term of the lease.
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis
Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of
the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant
periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease
At inception of an arrangement, the Group determines whether such an arrangement is or contains a lease. A specific
asset is the subject of a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of that specified asset. An
arrangement conveys the right to use the asset if the arrangement conveys to the Group the right to control the use of the
underlying asset
Leases in terms of which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance
leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the
present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance
with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.
Other leases are operating leases and the leased assets are not recognised on the Group’s statement of financial
position.
(i) Impairment of assets
Non-derivative financial assets
A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit and loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether
there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss
event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event has a negative effect on the estimated
future cash flows of that asset that can be measured reliably.
An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its
carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.
Significant financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed
collectively in Groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.
All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.
An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss
was recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the reversal is recognised in profit or loss.
Non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any
indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and
intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount (the value in use
of the asset in the cash generating unit (CGU) to which it relates) is estimated each year at the same time. An impairment
loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income unless the asset has previously been
revalued, in which case the impairment loss is recognised as a reversal to the extent of that previous revaluation with any
excess recognised through the statement of comprehensive income.
Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit (group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets
in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
An impairment write down to goodwill may not be reversed in future years. In respect of other assets, impairment losses
recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no
longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the
recoverable amount. 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.

(j) Inventories

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Quickstep Holdings Limited

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
(k) 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, the costs of dismantling the items and restoring the site on which they are located
and capitalised borrowing costs.
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. The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and
equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and
equipment and is recognised net within other income/other expense in profit or loss.
Government grants that compensate the Group for the cost of an asset are recognised as a deduction in arriving at the
carrying value of the asset.
Depreciation
Depreciation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Significant components of individual assets are
assessed and if a component has a useful life that is different from the remainder of the asset, that component is
depreciated separately. Depreciation is recognised in profit and loss on a reducing balance basis over the estimated
useful lives of each component of an item of property plant and equipment. The depreciation rates used for each class of
depreciable asset for the current and prior years are:
Class of depreciable asset
Plant and factory equipment
Office equipment
Depreciation rate
6.67% to 37.50%
6.67% to 50.00%
(l) Intangible assets
Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group and have finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated
amortisation and accumulated impairment losses

(m) Employee benefits
Wages, salaries, annual leave and non-monetary benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled within 12
months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of
employee's services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the
liabilities are settled. The liability for annual leave and accumulating sick leave is recognised in the provision for employee
benefits. All other short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables.
The liabilities for long service leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in
which the employees render the related service. They are therefore recognised in the provision for employee benefits and
measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up
to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage
and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted
using market yields at the end of the reporting period of government bonds with terms and currencies that match, as
closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and
changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss.
Share-based payment transactions
An expense is recognised for all equity-based remuneration and other transactions, including shares, rights and options
issued to employees and directors. The fair value of equity instruments granted is recognised, together with a
corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending
on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (‘vesting date’). The amount recognised is
adjusted to reflect the actual number of shares and options that vest, except for those that fail to vest due to market
conditions not being met. The fair value of equity instruments granted is measured using a generally accepted valuation
model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the equity instruments were granted. The fair value of
shares, options and rights granted is measured based on relevant market prices at the grant date.
(n) Contributed equity
Ordinary shares
Dividends
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share
options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared.
(o) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing-
during the year and excluding treasury shares.
Diluted earnings per share
the profit attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares by the
weighted average of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive ordinary shares and the weighted
average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive
potential ordinary shares. Currently there are no potential ordinary shares on issue that are considered to be dilutive.

(p) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
(s) Amortisation
Amortisation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Amortisation is recognised in profit and loss
on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that
they are available for use. The estimated useful lives in the current and comparative periods are as follows:
Licences patents and rights to technology
Royalty buy-back

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including available-for-sale financial assets), dividend
income, gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets and fair value gains on financial assets at fair value
through profit and loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit and loss, using the effective interest method.
Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings calculated using the effective interest method, dividend income,
transaction costs, unwinding discounting of provisions and foreign exchange gains and losses. The interest expense
component of finance lease payments is recognised in the profit and loss using the effective interest method.
(u) New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The Group has adopted all new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and Australian Accounting Standards
Board (AASB) interpretations that are mandatory for the current reporting period and relevant to the Group.
Adoption of these standards and interpretations has not resulted in any material changes to the Group’s financial
statements.
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not
recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part
of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST
recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the consolidated
balance sheet.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing
activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.
(q) Financial instruments
Non-derivative financial assets
The Group initially recognises loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial
assets (including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss) are recognised initially on the trade date at which
the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
The Group de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it
transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the
risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is
created or retained by the Group is recognised as a separate asset of liability.
Non-derivative financial liabilities
All financial liabilities (including liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss) are recognised initially on the trade
date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Group derecognises a
financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire. Financial assets and liabilities are
offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group has a legal
right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously.
Compound financial instruments
The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognised initially at the fair value of a similar liability that
does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is recognised initially at the difference between the fair
value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly
attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying
amounts.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not re-measured
subsequent to initial recognition.
Interest, dividends, losses and gains relating to the financial liability are recognised in profit or loss. Distributions to the
equity holders are recognised against equity, net of any tax benefit.
Derivative financial instruments
The Group holds a derivative financial instrument in the form of options issued in relation to borrowed funds.
Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value, any directly attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit and loss
as they are incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value and changes therein are
generally recognised in profit and loss.
(r) Research and development
Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and
understanding, is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as an expense as incurred.

20. Determination of fair values
A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and
non-financial assets and liabilities. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair
values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.
Trade and other receivables
The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the
market rate of interest at the reporting date. This fair value is determined for disclosure purposes.
Non-derivative financial liabilities
Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and
interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. In respect of the liability component of
convertible notes and loans, the market rate of interest is determined by reference to similar liabilities that do not have a
conversion option. For finance leases the market rate of interest is determined by reference to similar lease agreements.
Share based payment transactions
The fair value of the Employee Incentive Plan (EIP) is measured using Monte Carlo Simulation. The fair value of the share
rights is measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, the
exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for expected
changes expected due to publicly available information), expected term of the instruments (based on historical experience
and general option holder behavior), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). In
the case of the EIP, market performance conditions attaching to the grant are taken into account in the Monte Carlo
Simulation in determining fair value. Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the EIP transactions are
not taken into account in determining fair value.
Loans and borrowings
The fair value of the Newmarket options (Note 7(g)) is measured using the Binomial tree methodology. Measurement
inputs include share price on measurement date, the exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on
weighted average historic volatility adjusted for expected changes due to publicly available information), remaining term of
the instruments to the date of expiry, expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds).
Derivatives
The fair value of forward exchange contracts is based on their quoted market price, if available. If a quoted market price is
not available, then fair value is estimated by discounting the difference between the contractual forward price and the
current forward price for the residual maturity for the contract using a risk-free interest rate.
