CHAIRMAN’S REPORT 

Dear Fellow Shareholders, 

The  past  twelve  months  have  again  been 
challenging  for  the  industry  in  which  the 
Company  operates.  Whilst 
the  software 
business has had an outstanding year and the 
GeoGAS  business  has  been  steady,  our 
Advisory  business  has  been  negatively 
impacted once again. 

The  fallout  from  the  recent  mining  boom, 
which saw a significant increase in the supply 
of  resources  from  both  new  mines  and 
extensions  to  existing  mines,  has  continued. 
During the last financial year, the price of Iron 
Ore  and  Oil  dropped  dramatically  as  a  result 
of  the  current  and  forecasted  increases  in 
supply  and  the  continued  drop  in  growth  in 
China. The export price for both Thermal and 
Coking Coal again dropped during the year as 
initiatives 
mining  companies’  productivity 
resulted in increased supply at cheaper overall 
operating costs. 

imperative 

for  mining 
The  overriding 
companies  continues  to  be  to  reduce  their 
cost of mining. In this regard, the low hanging 
fruit was harvested during the 2013 and 2014 
years  which  has  meant  that 
incremental 
savings are now coming from larger and more 
strategic  economic  decisions  like  whether  or 
not  to  mothball  operating  mines,  place  them 
into  care  and  maintenance  or  alternatively 
put them up for sale. 

We believe that the next wave of productivity 
improvements  will  come  through  software 
innovation and integration between the major 
system  providers  to  the  mining  industry  and 
we have positioned ourselves at the forefront 
of this endeavour. 

There  has  been  little  activity  in  the  area  of 
in  the  mining 
Mergers  and  Acquisitions 
industry  over  the  last  twelve  months  which 
suggests that potential buyers believe that the 
bottom  of  the  market  has  not  yet  been 
reached. We do however expect to see more 
activity in this area in the upcoming year given 

the number of assets which have been put up 
for sale.  

The significant pull back in capital investment 
by  mining  companies  continued  throughout 
the  2015  financial  year  which  has  really  hurt 
the  upstream  services  companies  and  has 
resulted  in  the  value  of  their  business  being 
heavily impacted. 

The  junior  miners  continue  to  focus  on  cash 
preservation  rather  than  exploration.  There 
has  been  little  to  no  new  equity  investment 
into the resources sector over the past twelve 
months and the analysts are predicting this to 
continue for the foreseeable future. 

In  last  year’s  Annual  Report,  we  assured 
shareholders  that  we  would  continue  to 
closely  monitor  the  industry  changes  and  if 
needed  respond  swiftly  and  decisively,  which 
we have. As we did last year, we have reduced 
the ongoing operational costs of the Advisory 
and GeoGAS divisions.  

This  downsizing  cost  the  Company  $1.3 
million  in  redundancy  costs  as  more  highly 
remunerated employees left the business this 
year  than  in  previous  years.  The  annualised 
savings in employment costs as a result of this 
restructure is $3.8 million 

We  also  moved  into  smaller  and  cheaper 
office  accommodation  in  Brisbane,  Sydney, 
Jakarta,  Toronto  and  Gillette,  with  similar 
changes  planned  this  year  in  Denver  and 
Santiago,  which  significantly  reduces  our 
ongoing fixed costs. 

As  a  result  of  the  premises  restructure,  the 
Company  booked  $1.5  million  in  once-off 
accelerated  depreciation  (2014:  $0.2  million) 
and  onerous  lease  obligations  of  $1.9  million 
(2014:  $0.5  million)  this  financial  year.  The 
annualised  savings  in  premises  costs  as  a 
result  of  these  accommodation  changes  is 
$1.4 million. 

While the Board believes that the Company’s 
cost  structure  is  now  appropriate  for  our

industry situation closely. 

acquired  the  exclusive  rights  in  the  mining 
industry  to  a  copy  of  the  FlexSim  Software 
Products, Inc. (FlexSim) simulation software.  

While 2015 has been another difficult year for 
suppliers  to  the  mining  industry,  we  have 
really  started  to  see  the  benefit  of  our 
software  strategy  on  the  performance  of  the 
business.  We  are  not  aware  of  any  other 
industry 
software  provider  to  the  mining 
growing  their  software  license  revenue  by 
anywhere near the growth we have seen over 
the  last  two  years.  It  is  clear  to  us  that  the 
Company’s  strategic  move  from  providing 
desktop  applications  to  enterprise  systems 
has  the  support  of  the  world’s  major  mining 
companies.  This  is  evidenced  not  only  by  the 
growth in our software business during a time 
of severe austerity in the mining industry, but 
more 
importantly  the  relevance  of  the 
conversations  we  are  having  with  the  senior 
management teams at our current customers 
and potential new customers. 

As per our stated strategy, we have continued 
to  invest  in  our  technology  products.  During 
the  year  we  released  a  QUARRY  commodity 
based  solution  and  XECUTE  the  Company’s 
new ultra-short term planning solution. 

The  new  products  which  have  been  released 
over  the  last  24  months  laid  the  foundation 
for the Company’s impressive 63% increase in 
software license sales in 2015. 

As reported last year, the Company executed 
an Institutional Share Placement  Scheme  and 
a Share Purchase Plan for retail shareholders.

The  near  term  outlook  of  the  Advisory 
business  remains  constrained,  with  no  clear 
indicators that the market is about to turn any 
time  soon.  Because  of  this  the  Company  has 
recognised  a  non-cash  impairment  of  $2.5 
million  to  the  Goodwill  of  the  Advisory

The Board has resolved not to pay a dividend 
this financial year. 

I  would  again  like  to  acknowledge  the  effort 
and commitment of our staff who continue to 
perform especially well during this challenging 
period. 

The  Board  thanks  its  shareholders  for  their 
ongoing  support  of  the  Company’s  software 
strategy.  The  Board  remains  firmly  of  the 
opinion  that  these  investments,  along  with 
the products that were released in 2015, will 
provide the growth engine for the business in 
2016.

MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT 

FINANCIAL RESULTS 

OPERATIONAL RESTRUCTURING 

The Company’s financial performance in 2015 
was  much 
improved  on  the  back  of  a 
significant  growth  (63%)  in  software  license 
fees.  This  increase  resulted  in  an  EBITDA  for 
the year of $2.6 million (2014: loss $1 million) 
before restructure costs. 

Our software  business now  makes up 59% of 
the net revenue of our business (up from 48% 
in 2014).  

Demand for mining advisory services, desktop 
software  products  and  coal  gas  exploration 
testing  were  again  negatively  impacted  by 
weak commodity prices, lack of investment by 
mining companies and a restriction on capital 
to the industry. 

Revenue  increased  by  1%  to  $61.3  million 
(2014:  $60.4  million)  with  net  Advisory 
revenue  decreasing  by  22%  to  $20.1  million 
(2014:  $25.8  million).  Software 
license 
revenue  finished  the  year  at  $15.9  million, 
63% ahead of the previous year’s result (2014: 
$9.8  million).  Software  maintenance  revenue 
increased by 9% to $13.7 million (2014: $12.6 
million).  Laboratory  testing  and  consulting 
revenue  from  GeoGAS  finished  the  year  at 
$4.2  million  (2014:  $4.6  million)  an  8% 
reduction from the previous year. 

The Advisory business was again impacted by 
the  continuing  contraction  throughout  the 
industry which was  the overwhelming reason 
for  a  net  loss  after  tax  of  $6.8  million  (2014: 
$7.4  million),  which 
staff 
restructuring costs of $1.3 million (2014: $1.1 
million),  premises  restructuring  costs  of  $3.4 
million  (2014:  $0.7  million)  and  an  Advisory 
goodwill  write-down  of  $2.5  million  (2014: 
$3.0 million).  

included 

Basic  earnings  per  share  was  a  loss  of  3.9 
cents per share (2014: 5.2 cents per share). 

During  the  year,  the  Company’s  customers 
continued  their  drive  to  reduce  capital  and 
operating  costs  as  quickly  as  possible.  This 
directly  impacted  the  revenue  opportunities 
of their suppliers which of course included our 
Company.  

Our  Advisory  business  and  GeoGAS  business 
are  both  sensitive 
to  coal  exploration 
activities  which  continued  to  be  severely 
curtailed.  

In  the  Advisory  space,  there  was  less  work 
available  due  to  mining  companies  cutting 
back  on exploration, capacity expansions and 
mine  planning.  The  work  that  was  available 
was  hotly  contested  resulting 
lower 
margins.  

in 

From  a  competitor  standpoint,  the  2015 
financial  year  saw  a  number  of  mining 
advisory  companies  either  reduced  in  size  or 
close entirely.  

Many  of the  larger  international  Engineering, 
Procurement,  and  Construction  Management 
(EPCM)  companies  severely  cut  back  their 
mining  advisory  headcount  as  they  moved 
back  to  their  principal  areas  of  expertise.  
Most  of  our  competitors  with  coal  advisory 
businesses  have  either  been  pared  back  to 
skeleton  staff  levels  or  have  left  the  market 
completely. 

We  are  very  pleased  with  the  way  the  ethos 
of  the  Company  has  changed  over  the  last 
three  years,  from  a  slow  moving  engineering 
focused  business  to  a  fast  moving  sales  and 
marketing led business.

renegotiated the applicable rate.  

GROUP SALES AND MARKETING 

The work that we did in 2014 to build a sales 
team capable of winning larger software deals 
really paid off in 2015. This was evidenced by 
the  63%  growth  in  Software  License  revenue 
year  on  year.  During  2015,  we  filled  in  the 
regional management and software sales gaps 
nicely  to  enter  the  2016  year  with  a  full 
playing roster.  

We also continued our investment in product 
management  assigning  dedicated  product 
managers to our new products. As a result of 
our  successful  move 
into  the  enterprise 
software  domain,  we  have  hired  professional 
enterprise  software  project  managers  to 
manage  the  large  global  customer  rollouts 
which we are currently undertaking. 

Our  relationship  with  SAP  continues  to 
strengthen.  We  finalised  and  announced  the 
signing  of  an  SAP  Application  Development 
Cooperation  Agreement  during  the  year.  We 
also  had  our  software  integrations  with  SAP 
certified.  For  many  of  our  large  customers, 
this certification was important given support

the reduction in available work.

The  reduction  in  Advisory  staff  has  been 
offset  by  the  increase  in  the  number  of

Whilst we will continue to carefully review the 
shape  of  our  business,  we  are  not  expecting 
to  see  further  headcount  reductions  in  2016

1 Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, Amortisation, Impairment and Restructure 

The  Group  undertook  further  Advisory  and  GeoGAS  restructuring  during  the  year  in  response  to  declining 
revenues, with Advisory operating costs down 21% to $19.3 million (2014: $24.5 million) and GeoGAS operating 
costs down 17% to $2.9 million (2014: $3.5 million).  

Redundancy costs associated with these changes in the 2015 financial year were $1.3 million (2014: $1.0 million). 
While fewer employees were made redundant in 2015 those who left were generally remunerated higher and 
had been with the company longer than employees retrenched in previous years. The staff restructuring which 
was undertaken in FY15 will result in annualised savings in employee costs of $3.8 million. 

The  Group  reduced  its  accommodation  costs  significantly  during  the  2015  financial  year.  As  a  result  of 
restructuring its office leases in Brisbane, Sydney and Perth the Company reported onerous lease obligations of 
$1.2  million,  fit  out  impairments  of  $0.7  million  and  accelerated  depreciation  of  $1.7  million.  The  annualised 
savings in premises costs as a result of these accommodation changes is $1.4 million. 

The  Group  has  recognised  a  non-cash  impairment  charge  of  $2.5  million  (2014:  $3.0  million)  against  goodwill 
allocated  to  the  Advisory  division  which  reduced  the  carrying  value  of  Advisory  goodwill  to  $4.1  million.    The 
impairment  reflects  continued  difficult  trading  conditions  for  the  Advisory  division,  with  revenue  down  18%  in 
FY2015. 

The Group recorded a foreign exchange gain of $0.7 million (2014: loss $0.4 million). 

The fall in Advisory revenue was offset by the increase in software license fee revenue and reduction in operating 
costs  which  resulted  in  an  EBITDA  (Earnings  before  Interest,  Tax,  Depreciation,  Amortisation,  Restructure  and 
Impairment) of $2.6 million (2014: loss $1.0 million).  

The Group had cash reserves of $22.6 million (2014: $7.5 million) and no bank debt at the end of the financial 
year.

Review and Results of Operations (Continued) 

Software Division 

The Software division provides mine scheduling, financial costing/budgeting and simulation software solutions to 
the  mining  industry.  It  also  provides  software  consulting,  implementation,  training  and  support  for  these 
products. 

The Software division contributed 59% of Group revenue in 2015, up from 48% in the 2014 financial year.  

Two new software products were released during the 2015 financial year and the nine software products which 
were released in the 2014 financial year all received significant upgrades. These enterprise enabled applications 
contributed significantly to a 63% increase in software license revenue.  

Software sales in the traditionally strong fourth quarter of the year were $7.1 million, an increase from the prior 
comparative  quarter  of  $3.3  million.      These  license  sales  occurred  too  late  in  the  year  to  impact  software 
consulting revenue which remained flat at $6.8 million (2014: $6.7 million) but will ensure a strong start to the 
year for the software consulting team.    

Recurring revenue for software support grew by 9% to $13.7 million (2014: $12.6 million). Interestingly most of 
our  competitor  mining  advisory  companies  who  use  our  software  to  provide  services  to  the  industry  did  not 
renew their annual maintenance as they either downsized their business or pulled out of the market altogether. 
While this approach had a negative impact on our support revenue it also reduced the Advisory competitiveness 
of these companies– particularly in Coal.   

Advisory Division 

The Advisory division provides independent consulting and advisory services which cover technical and economic 
analysis and assessment of mining activities and resources on behalf of mining companies, financial institutions, 
government agencies and suppliers to mining projects.  The market for advisory services is heavily reliant on 
expansion, development, financing and transacting of mining assets and projects.    

The Advisory division contributed 33% of Group revenue in 2015, down from 43% in the 2014 financial year. 

Revenue from Advisory services decreased by $5.6 million (22%) to $20.3 million (2014: $25.9 million). More than 
half of this reduction ($3.1 million) came from our Asian Advisory business which was negatively impact by the 
almost complete drop off in Chinese companies listing on either the Hong Kong or Singapore Stock Exchanges.   

Operating expenses for the division reduced by 21% to $19.3 million (2014: $24.5 million), primarily as a result of 
a 28% reduction in divisional staff numbers.  This reduction in staff numbers resulted in an increase in the use of 
sub-contractors on Advisory projects throughout the year (2015: $4.1 million, 2014: $2.8 million). 

GeoGAS 

The  GeoGAS  business  provides  mine  gas  consulting  and  laboratory  testing  services  to  the  coal  industry on  the 
East Coast of Australia.  

The GeoGAS division contributed 7% of Group revenue in 2015, down from 8% in the 2014 financial year. 

The Australian coal industry experienced further cutbacks in 2015 to exploration budgets and forward planning 
activity.    Revenue  was  down  by  8%  to  $4.2  million  (2014:  $4.6  million);  however,  the  division  increased  its 
segment contribution to $1.3 million (2013: $1.1 million). 

Operating expenses 

Operating expenses decreased by 3% ($1.6 million) to $59.4 million during the year (2014: $61 million).

Review and Results of Operations (Continued) 

The reduction in employee costs in both the Advisory ($3.6 million), GeoGAS ($0.5 million) and Corporate ($0.4 
million)  divisions  was  partly  offset  by  the  Software  Development  employee  salary  costs  jumping  by  30%  ($1.6 
million)  to  $7.1  million  (2014:  $5.5  million)  as  the  Group  hired  additional  software  developers  to  support  the 
three new software applications acquired during the year and its new product releases. 

Due to the large increase in software license sales during the year the Group paid out $3.5 million in commissions 
and bonuses to our software team and senior management (2014: 1.1 million). 

The Group also recorded $0.4 million in options expenses in 2015 (2014: $0.04 million). 

5. 

Likely Future Developments - Business Strategies and Prospects for Future Financial Years 

Software Division 

In 2015 revenue from Software license fees increased by 63% as a result of increases in enterprise product sales 
(e.g.  XERAS  for  Enterprise)  and  new  product  sales  (e.g.  XECUTE).  Implementation  of  these  solutions  into  our 
customers  operating  environments  will  provide  additional  product  proof  points  which  we  believe  will  enhance 
our creditably and competitiveness. 

Acceptance  of  the  Group’s  enterprise  products  and  innovative  new  products  is  lifting  the  quality  of  the 
conversations held with customers and prospects which is providing better insight into the requirements of the 
industry. 

We will again invest heavily in our enterprise architecture and commodity based scheduling products. 2016 will 
see the launch of a number of new simulation applications as well as release of our first mine design products 
which will initially be incorporated into our coal solutions. 

During  2015  we  purchased  three  third  party  software  products  to  fill  product  gaps  in  our  product  suite.  This 
approach  of  identifying  the  leading  products  in  specific  product  niches  and  then  acquiring  the  rights  to  the 
products or the products themselves will continue in 2016. 

Advisory and GeoGAS 

The near term outlook for these businesses remains tough; however, longer term fundamentals remain positive. 
We  believe  both  businesses  will  return  positive  contributions  to  the  Group  during  2016  on  reduced  revenue 
expectations.  We are pleased with the structure and skills contained within both divisions and believe there is 
considerable upside available (without additional expenses being required) once commodity prices begin to rise 
and investment starts to return to the industry.

Legal Proceedings on Behalf of the Group

proceedings to which the Group is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Group for all or 
any part of those proceedings, other than for Group pursuing outstanding accounts receivable through courts.

Principles Used to Determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration 

Remuneration and compensation have the same meaning in this report. 

This report discusses the Group’s policies in regard to compensation of key management personnel (KMP).  The 
identified KMP have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Group.   

In  addition  to  the  Directors,  the  Company  assessed  the  Chief  Financial  Officer,  Group  General  Counsel  & 
Company  Secretary,  the  Executive  General  Managers  of  the  Software  Division  and  Advisory  Division  and  the 
previous  Corporate  Services  manager  within  the  Group  as  having  authority  and  responsibility  for  planning, 
directing and controlling all activities of the Group, directly or indirectly, during the 2015 financial year. The EGM 
Corporate Services manager ceased being a Key Management Personnel during the financial year. 

The Board has established an HR and Remuneration Committee to assist with remuneration and incentive policies 
enabling the Group to attract and retain KMP and Directors who will create value for shareholders and support 
the  Group’s  mission.    The  HR  and  Remuneration  Committee  obtains  independent  advice  if  required  on  the 
appropriateness of compensation packages given trends in comparative  companies.  In the 2015  financial year 
the Committee did not use a remuneration consultant.  The Group’s Corporate Governance Statement provides 
further information on the role of this Committee. 

The compensation structures explained below are designed to attract suitably qualified candidates, reward the 
achievement  of  strategic,  operational  objectives  and  achieve  the  broader  outcome  of  creation  of  value  for 
shareholders.  

The compensation structures take into account: 

  The capability and experience of the KMP; 
  Their ability to control the relevant segment’s performance; and 
  The segment or Group earnings. 

Compensation packages include  a mix of fixed and short-term and long-term performance-based incentives.  In 
addition  to  their  salaries,  the  Group  also  provides  non-cash  benefits  to  its  KMP  and  contributes  to  a  defined 
contribution superannuation plan (or equivalent pension plan) on their behalf. 

Fixed Compensation 

Fixed  compensation  is  calculated  on  a  total  cost  basis  and  includes  salary,  allowances,  non-cash  benefits, 
employer  contributions  to  superannuation  funds  and  any  fringe  benefits  tax  charges  related  to  employee 
benefits, including motor vehicles. 

Compensation  levels  are  reviewed  using  an  individual  approach,  based  on  evaluation  of  the  individual,  and  a 
comparison to the market. A KMP’s compensation is also reviewed on promotion.

Performance Linked Compensation 

Performance linked compensation includes both short-term and long-term incentives and is designed to reward 
KMP for meeting and exceeding their Key Performance Objectives (KPOs).  The Short-term Incentive (STI) is an ‘at 
risk’ bonus provided in the form of cash, while the Long-term Incentive (LTI) is provided as options over ordinary 
shares of the Company under the rules of the Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) (see note  24 to the financial 
statements).    The  current  long-term  performance  incentive  structure  was  implemented  in  the  2008  year  and 
amended in 2010, 2012 and 2013 years. 

The table below sets out the performance based compensation paid to KMP together with earnings for the same 
period. Performance based compensation consists of STI cash bonus and LTI share-based payments.

1 Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, Restructure and Impairment costs 

Short-term Incentive Bonus 

Effective  1  July  2012,  the  Group  implemented  a  variable  pay  structure,  referred  to  as  the  Executive  General 
Manager Incentive Plan (EGMIP). Each of the identified KMP’s has a portion of their remuneration linked to the 
EGMIP. The key objective of the EGMIP is to create clear alignment between individual and business performance 
and  remuneration  by  providing  a  performance-based  reward  to  participants  in  line  with  their  relative 
contribution to the Group. The EGMIP achieves the alignment by focusing participants on achieving goals which 
contribute  to  sustainable  shareholder  value,  and  providing  a  clear  link  between  performance  and  the  Group 
financial  result.  In  2015  100%  of  the  KMP’s  STI  incentive  pool  was  based  on  the  Company  adjusted  EBITDA 
performance.  Allocation  of  this  pool  was  based  on  both  individual  performance  metrics  and  divisional  results. 
Cash bonuses are paid, provided for or forfeited in the year to which they relate.  

The Board has assessed performance of the KMP’s against the EGMIP for the 2015 Financial Year and STI’s were 
awarded to the KMP as detailed below.

Principles Used to Determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration (Continued) 

Long-term Incentive 

Options  were  issued  in  the  2012,  2013,  2014  and  2015  financial  years  under  the  Company’s  Employee  Share 
Option  Plan  (ESOP)  to  KMP’s  at  the  discretion  of  the  Board.  Consistent  with  the  current  ESOP  plan  terms 
approved by shareholders at the Company’s 2013 Annual General Meeting, the rules of the ESOP Plan enable the 
Board  to  determine  the  applicable  vesting  criteria  and  to  set  a  timetable  for  vesting  of  options  in  the  Offer 
Document, including vesting in tranches over a defined period. The Board has the discretion on whether or not to 
set performance hurdles for vesting or to link vesting solely to a defined service period in order to drive key staff 
retention and reward longevity of service. The options issued since November 2013 vest in tranches over a three 
year period  from the  date of grant, have vesting  conditions linked to the  holder maintaining employment  with 
the Group over that period and are issued at an exercise price based on the volume weighted average price of 
the  Company’s  shares  in  the  five  days  prior  to  each  grant.    The  options  issued  in  2012  and  2013  vested  in 
accordance with the table below if the Company’s average annual earnings per share (EPS) growth (Average EPS 
Growth) over the performance period comprising the 2012, 2013 and 2014 financial years (Performance Period), 
is  at  least  10  percentage  points  above  the  Average  Australian  Consumer  Price  Index  (CPI)  Increase  for  the

Principles Used to Determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration (Continued) 

The  Board  has  a  Margin  Loan  policy  that  restricts  Directors  and  executives  of  the  Group  from  entering  into 
financial contracts secured by shares  and other securities of the Company. This policy requires  the  approval of 
the  Chairman  of  the  Board  for  any  financial  arrangements  or  facilities  related  to  Company  shares  held  by  the 
Directors and executives. 

Non-executive Directors 

Fees and payments to Non-executive Directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities 
of  the  Directors.    Non-executive  Directors’  fees  and  payments  are  reviewed  periodically  by  the  Board  and  are 
determined  within  an  aggregate  Directors’  fee  pool  limit,  which  is  periodically  recommended  for  approval  by 
shareholders. The pool currently stands $500,000, unchanged since it was approved in the 2009 Annual General 
Meeting. 

Non-executive  Directors’  base  remuneration  was  last  reviewed  with  effect  from  31  December  2014.  Both  the 
Chairman’s and Non-executive Directors’ remuneration is inclusive of committee fees.

Bonuses and Share-based Compensation Benefits 

All options refer to options over ordinary shares of RungePincockMinarco Limited, which are exercised on a one-
for-one basis under the ESOP Plan. 

The  assessed  fair value  at grant  date of  options  granted  to  the  individuals  is allocated  equally over  the  period 
from grant date to vesting date, based on an estimate of the number of options likely to vest, and the amount is 
included in the remuneration tables above.  Fair values at grant date are determined using Trinominal Lattice and 
Hoadley’s Hybrid models that take into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the share price at grant 
date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest 
rate for the term of the option.  Model inputs for options granted during the year are disclosed in note 24 in the 
financial report. 

Details of options over ordinary shares in the Company provided as remuneration to each director and each of 
the KMP’s and the Group are set out below. When exercisable, each option is convertible into one ordinary share 
of  RungePincockMinarco  Limited.  Further  information  on  the  options  is  set  out  in  note  24  to  the  financial 
statements.

2 Options granted in 2010 vested and were either exercised or expired  in September 2014 with an exercise price of $0.57. 
Options granted in November 2013 vested in November 2014 with an  exercise price of $0.68 cents expiring in November 
2018 and to-date no options in this grant have been exercised. 

Options granted under the ESOP plan carry no dividend or voting rights until the options vest, are exercised and 
converted to ordinary shares whereupon those ordinary shares carry dividend and voting rights consistent with 
all other ordinary shares of the Company.  

The assessed fair value at grant date of options granted to the individuals is allocated equally over the period 
from grant date to vesting date, and the amount is included in the remuneration tables above.

NOTES ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1. 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below.  These 
policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

RungePincockMinarco Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. 

The  financial  report  comprises  the  consolidated  entity  (“Group”)  consisting  of  RungePincockMinarco  Limited 
and its subsidiaries.  

(a) 

Basis of Preparation 

These  general  purpose  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting 
Standards  and  interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards Board  and  the  Corporations  Act 
2001.    RungePincockMinarco  Limited  is  a  for-profit  entity  for  the  purposes  of  preparing  the  financial 
statements. 

Compliance with IFRS 

The consolidated financial statements of RungePincockMinarco Limited also comply with International Financial 
Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). 

Historical cost convention 

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

(b) 

Principles of Consolidation 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  entities  controlled  by 
RungePincockMinarco  Limited  as  at  30  June  2015  and  the  results  of  all  controlled  entities  for  the  year  then 
ended.  RungePincockMinarco Limited and its controlled entities together are referred to in this financial report 
as the “consolidated entity” or the “Group”.  

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls 
an entity when the Group 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 to direct the activities of the entity. 

Subsidiaries  are  fully  consolidated  from  the  date  on  which  control  is transferred  to the  Group.    They  are  de-
consolidated from the date that control ceases. 

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group (refer 
to note 1(k)).  

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.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) 

Income Tax 

The income  tax expense  or revenue  for the period is the tax payable on the current  period’s taxable income 
based  on  the  national  income  tax  rate  for  each  jurisdiction  adjusted  by  changes  in  deferred  tax  assets  and 
liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. 

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, 
the  deferred  income  tax  is  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 balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income 
tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. 

Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  deductible  temporary  differences  and  unused  tax  losses  only  if  it  is 
probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses in the 
tax jurisdiction in which they arose. 

Deferred tax liabilities  and assets  are  not  recognised for temporary differences between the  carrying amount 
and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the 
reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable 
future. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets 
and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.  Current tax assets and 
tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a 
net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in 
other  comprehensive  income  or  directly  in  equity.    In  this  case,  the  tax  is  also  recognised  in  other 
comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. 

Tax consolidation legislation 

RungePincockMinarco  Limited  and  its  wholly  owned  Australian  controlled  entities  have  implemented  the  tax 
consolidation legislation. 

The  head  entity,  RungePincockMinarco  Limited,  and  the  controlled  entities  in  the  tax  consolidated  group 
account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in 
the tax consolidated group continues to be a standalone taxpayer in its own right. 

In  addition  to  its  own  current  and  deferred  tax  amounts,  RungePincockMinarco  Limited  also  recognises  the 
current tax liabilities or assets and the deferred tax assets arising from the  unused tax losses and unused tax 
credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group. 

Assets  or liabilities arising under  tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as 
amounts  receivable or  payable  to other entities  in  the  Group.    Details  about  the  tax  funding  agreements are 
disclosed in note 5. 

Any  difference  between  the  amounts  assumed  and  amounts  receivable  or  payable  under  the  tax  funding 
agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly-owned tax consolidated entities.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) 

Segment Reporting 

Operating  segments  are  reported  in  a  manner  consistent  with  the  internal  reporting  provided  to  the  chief 
operational decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and 
assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Managing Director. 

The  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  Group  are  regularly  reviewed  on  a  consolidated  basis  but  are  not  regularly 
reported  to  the  chief  operating  decision  maker  at  a  segment  level.  As  such  this  information  has  not  been 
included in the Operating Segment note 2.

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’).  
is 
The 
RungePincockMinarco Limited’s functional and presentation currency.

financial 

ii) 

Transactions and balances 

Foreign  currency  transactions  are  initially  translated  into  the  functional  currency  using  the  exchange 
rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of  the  transaction.  Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  resulting  from  the 
settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets 
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss, except when they are 
deferred  in  equity  as  qualifying  cash  flow  hedges  and  qualifying  net  investment  hedges  or  are 
attributable to part of the net investment in a foreign operation. 

Non-monetary  items  that  are  measured  at  fair  value  in  a  foreign  currency  are  translated  using  the 
exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and 
liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. For example, translation 
differences on non-monetary assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or 
loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss and translation differences on 
non-monetary  assets  such  as  equities  whose  changes  in  the  fair  value  are  presented  in  other 
comprehensive income are recognized in other comprehensive income. 

iii) 

Group entities 

The  results  and  financial  position  of  all  the  Group  entities  (none  of  which  has  the  currency  of  a 
hyperinflationary  economy)  that  have  a  functional  currency  different  from  the  presentation  currency 
are translated into the presentation currency as follows: 

 

 

 

assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the 
date of that balance sheet; 

income and expenses for each income statement and statement of comprehensive income are 
translated at daily exchange rates; and 

all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. 

Fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities 
of the foreign entities and translated at the closing rate.

Revenue Recognition 

Sale of licences 

Revenue  from  the  sale  of  licences  is  recognised  when  the  amount  can  be  reliably  measured  and  all 
significant  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  have  been  transferred  to  the  buyer.    In  most  cases  this 
coincides with the transfer of legal title or the passing of possession to the buyer. 

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.  Amounts disclosed 
as  revenue  are  net  of  returns,  trade  allowances,  rebates  and  amounts  collected  on  behalf  of  third 
parties.  

ii) 

Consulting 

Revenue  from the  provision  of  consulting  services  is recognised on  an  accruals basis  in  the  period  in 
which  the  consulting  service  is  provided.    Revenue  from  the  provision  of  these  services  is  calculated 
with reference to the professional staff hours incurred on each client assignment adjusted for any time 
that may not be recoverable. 

iii) 

Software maintenance 

When the outcome of a transaction involving software maintenance can be estimated reliably, revenue 
associated with the transaction is recognised on a straight-line basis over the service period. 

iv) 

Interest revenue 

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method.  It includes the amortisation of any 
discount or premium. 

(g) 

Trade Receivables 

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the 
effective  interest  method,  less  provision  for  impairment.    Trade  receivables  are  generally  due  for  settlement 
within 30 days. They are presented as current assets unless collection is not expected for more than 12 months 
after the reporting date. 

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis.  Debts which are known to be uncollectible 
are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly.  An allowance for impairment of trade receivables is 
established  when  there  is  objective  evidence  that  the  Group  will  not  be  able  to  collect  all  amounts  due 
according to the original terms of the receivables.  Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that 
the  debtor  will  enter  bankruptcy  or  financial  reorganisation  and  default  or  delinquency  in  payments  are 
considered indicators that the trade receivable may be impaired.  The amount of the provision is the difference 
between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the 
original effective interest rate.  Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of 
discounting  is  immaterial.    The  amount  of  the  allowance  is  recognised  in  other  expenses  in  profit  or  loss. 
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in profit or loss.   

(h)  Work in Progress 

Work in progress represents costs incurred and profit recognised on client assignments and services that are in 
progress at balance date.  Work in progress is valued at net realisable value after providing for any foreseeable 
losses.

Investments and Other Financial Assets 

Equity  investments  that  are  held  for  trading  are  measured  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss.  For  all  other 
equity  investments,  the  group  can  make  an  irrevocable  election  at  initial  recognition  of  each  investment  to 
recognise changes in fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) rather than profit or loss. 

All  current  investments  in  equity  investments  are  classified  as  at  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive 
income.  Such investments are initially and subsequently measured at fair value, with the initial fair value being 
cost.  

Unrealised  gains  or  losses  on  investments  in  an  equity  instrument  are  recognised  in  a  reserve  until  the 
investment is sold, collected or otherwise disposed of, at which time the cumulative gain or loss is transferred 
to the Asset Realisation Reserve. 

The Company derecognises an investment in an equity instrument when it is sold or it transfers the investment 
and  the  transfer  qualifies  for  derecognition  in  accordance  with  AASB  9.    Upon  derecognition,  unrealised 
gains/losses net of tax relating to the investment are transferred from the revaluation reserve to the realisation 
reserve. 

Interest bearing investments are recognised initially at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised 
cost.  Amortised cost is calculated with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in 
the statement of comprehensive income over the period of the investment on an effective interest basis.  

(j) 

Leases 

Leases of property, plant and equipment, where the Group as lessee has substantially all the risks and rewards 
of ownership, are classified as finance leases.  Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s inception at the fair 
value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments.  The corresponding 
rental  obligations,  net  of  finance  charges,  are  included  in  other  short-term  and  long-term  borrowings.    Each 
lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost.   

The finance cost is charged to the profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate 
of  interest  on  the  remaining  balance  of  the  liability  for  each  period.    The  property,  plant  and  equipment 
acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term. 

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Group as 
lessee are classified as operating leases.  Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received 
from the lessor) are charged to the profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. 

Lease income from operating leases where the Group is a lessor is recognised in income on a straight line basis 
over the lease term. 

(k) 

Business Combinations 

The  acquisition  method  of  accounting  is  used  to  account  for  all  business  combinations,  including  business 
combinations involving entities or businesses under common control, regardless of whether equity instruments 
or other assets are acquired.  The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair 
values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group.   

The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangement and the 
fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.

(k)  

Business Combinations (Continued) 

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.   Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent 
liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values 
at  the  acquisition  date.    On  an  acquisition-by-acquisition  basis,  the  Group  recognises  any  non-controlling 
interest  in  the  acquiree  either  at  fair  value  or  at  the  non-controlling  interest’s  proportionate  share  of  the 
acquiree’s net identifiable assets. 

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the 
acquisition date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the Group’s share 
of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.  If those amounts are less than the fair value of 
the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, 
the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase. 

Where  settlement  of  any  part  of  cash  consideration  is  deferred,  the  amounts  payable  in  the  future  are 
discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange.  The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental 
borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier 
under comparable terms and conditions.  

Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability.  Amounts classified as a financial 
liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. 

(l) 

Impairment of Assets 

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested 
annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be 
impaired.  Other assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that 
the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the 
asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.  The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair 
value less costs of disposal and value in use.  

For  the  purposes  of  assessing  impairment,  assets  are  grouped  at  the  lowest  levels  for  which  there  are 
separately  identifiable  cash  inflows  which  are  largely  independent  of  the  cash  inflows  from  other  assets  or 
groups of assets (cash generating units).  Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment 
are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. 

(m) 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

For cash flow statement presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held 
at  call  with  financial  institutions,  other  short-term, highly  liquid  investments  with  original  maturities  of  three 
months or less that are readily converted to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant 
risk of changes in value and bank overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities 
on the consolidated statement of financial position.  

(n) 

Property, Plant and Equipment 

Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure 
that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis to 
write  off  the  net  cost  of  each  item  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  over  its  estimated  useful  life  to  the 
consolidated  entity,  or  in  case  of  lease  hold  improvements,  the  shorter  lease  term.    Estimates  of  remaining 
useful lives are made on a regular basis for all assets.   

The estimated useful lives for plant and equipment is ranging between 2 and 20 years.

Property, Plant and Equipment (Continued) 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount of the assets. 
These are included in profit or loss.  

(o) 

i) 

Intangible Assets 

Software developed or acquired for sales and licensing 

Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs incurred on development projects 
(relating to the design and testing of new areas of products) are recognised as intangible assets when it 
is probable that the project will, after considering its commercial and technical feasibility, be completed 
and  generate  future  economic  benefits  and  its  costs  can  be  measured  reliably.    The  expenditure 
capitalised comprises all directly attributable costs, including costs of materials, services, direct labour 
and an appropriate proportion of overheads.  Other development expenditures that do not meet these 
criteria  are  recognised  as  an  expense  as  incurred.    Development  costs  previously  recognised  as  an 
expense  are  not  recognised  as  an  asset  in  a  subsequent  period.    Capitalised  development  costs  and 
acquired software are recorded as intangible assets and amortised from the point at which the asset is 
ready for use on a straight line basis over its useful life, which varies from three to five years. 

ii) 

Software – internal management systems 

Software licences used in internal management systems, whether acquired or internally developed are 
stated at cost less amortisation.  They are amortised on a straight line basis over the useful life from 2.5 
to 5 years.  

iii) 

Patents and trademarks 

Costs associated with patents and trademarks are expensed as incurred. 

iv) 

Goodwill 

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of 
the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary/business at the date of acquisition.  Goodwill on 
acquisition is included in intangible assets.  Goodwill is not amortised.  Instead, goodwill is tested for 
impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that it might be impaired 
and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. 

Goodwill is allocated to cash generating units for the purposes of impairment testing. The allocation is 
made  to  those  cash  generating  units  or  groups of  cash  generating  units that  are  expected  to  benefit 
from  business  combination  in  which  goodwill  arose,  identified  according  to  operating  segments  or 
components of operating assets (note 2). 

(p) 

Trade and Other Payables 

These  amounts  represent  liabilities  for  goods  and  services  provided  to  the  Group  prior  to  the  end  of  the 
financial  year  and  which  are  unpaid.    The  amounts  are  unsecured  and  are  usually  paid  within  30  days  of 
recognition.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) 

Borrowings 

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred.  Borrowings are subsequently 
measured  at  amortised  cost.    Any  difference  between  the  proceeds  (net  of  transaction  costs)  and  the 
redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest 
method.  Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the 
extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down.  In this case, the fee is deferred 
until the draw down occurs.  To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility 
will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period 
of the facility to which it relates.  

Borrowings are removed from the statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract 
is discharged, cancelled or expired.  The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has 
been  extinguished  or  transferred  to  another  party  and  the  consideration  paid,  including  any  non-cash  assets 
transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. 

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of 
the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date. 

(r) 

Borrowing Costs 

Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time 
that  is  required  to  complete  and  prepare  the  asset  for  its  intended  use  or  sale.    Other  borrowing  costs  are 
expensed. 

(s) 

i) 

Employee Benefits 

Short term obligations 

Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary  benefits,  annual  leave  and  long  service  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 employees' 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 long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits.   

Other long-term employee benefit obligations 

The liability for long service leave and other benefits which is not expected to be settled within 12 months 
after  the  end  of  the  period  in  which  the  employees  render  the  related  service  is  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  on  national  government  bonds  with  terms  to 
maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. 

The  obligations  are  presented  as  current  liabilities  in  the  balance  sheet  if  the  entity  does  not  have  an 
unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of 
when the actual settlement is expected to occur.

Employee Benefits (Continued) 

Bonus plans 

The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit-sharing based on a formula that 
takes into consideration the profit attributable to the Company’s shareholders after certain adjustments.  
The Group recognises a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has 
created a constructive obligation. 

Liabilities for bonus plans are expected to be settled within 12 months and are measured at the amounts 
expected to be paid when they are settled. 

iii) 

Superannuation 

The Group has a defined contribution superannuation plan for its  eligible employees.  Contributions to 
the  defined  contribution  fund  are  recognised  as  an  expense  as  they  become  payable.    Prepaid 
contributions  are  recognised  as  an  asset  to  the  extent  that  a  cash  refund  or  a  reduction  in  future 
payments is available. 

iv) 

Share-based payments 

Share-based  compensation  benefits  are  provided  to  employees  via  the  RungePincockMinarco  Limited 
employee share option plan (ESOP) and an employee share purchase plan. Information relating to these 
schemes is set out in note 24. 

The fair value of options granted under the ESOP is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a 
corresponding increase in equity.  The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair 
value of the options granted, which includes any market performance conditions, but excludes the impact 
of  any  service  and  non-market  performance  vesting  conditions.    Non-market  vesting  conditions  are 
included  in  assumptions  about  the  number  of  options  that  are  expected  to  vest.    The  total  expense  is 
recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions 
are to be satisfied.  At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options 
that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions.   It recognises the impact of the 
revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. 

(t) 

Value Added Taxes (Including Goods and Services Tax) 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of Value Added Tax (VAT), except where the 
amount of VAT is not recoverable from the relevant tax authority.  In these circumstances the VAT is recognised 
as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the item as expense. 

Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  with  the  amount  of  VAT  included.    The  net  amount  of  VAT  recoverable 
from,  or  payable  to,  the  relevant  tax  authority  is  included  as  a  current  asset  or  liability  in  the  consolidated 
statement of financial position. 

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis.  The VAT components of the cash flows arising from investing and 
financing  activities  which  are  recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the  relevant  tax  authority  are  classified  as 
operating cash flows. 

(u) 

Contributed Equity 

Ordinary  shares are classified as equity.  Incremental costs  directly attributable to the issue of new  shares or 
options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Earnings per Share 

Basic earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing: 

 

 

the profit attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than 
ordinary shares 
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.  

ii)  

Diluted earnings per share 

Dilutive earnings per share adjusts the figures used in determination of basic earnings per share to take 
into account: 

 

 

the after income  tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential 
ordinary shares 
the  weighted  average  number  of  additional  ordinary  shares  that  would  have  been  outstanding 
assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. 

(w) 

Financial Guarantee Contracts  

Financial  guarantee  contracts  are  recognised  as  a  financial  liability  at  the  time  the  guarantee  is  issued.    The 
liability  is  initially  measured  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  at  the  higher  of  the  amount  determined  in 
accordance  with  AASB  137  Provisions,  Contingent  Liabilities  and  Contingent  Assets  and  the  amount  initially 
recognised less cumulative amortisation, where appropriate.

Rounding of Amounts 

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Class Order 98/100 dated 10 July 1998 and in accordance with that

Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Judgments 

The preparation of the financial report in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards requires the use of 
certain  critical  accounting  estimates.    It  also  requires  management  to  exercise  judgment  in  the  process  of 
applying the accounting policies.  The notes in the financial statements set out areas involving a higher degree 
of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions are significant to the financial report such as:  

 

 

 

intangible assets, including goodwill (note 12), 

impairment of receivables (note 8, 22(a) and note 1(g)), 

deferred tax assets (note 6). 

Estimates  and  judgments are  continually  evaluated and  are  based on  historical  experience  and  other  factors, 
including reasonable expectations of future events.  Management believes the estimates used in preparation of 
the financial report are reasonable.

(bb)  New Accounting Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted 

Relevant accounting standards and interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet

(i) 

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 

This standard and its consequential amendments are currently applicable to annual reporting periods beginning 
on or after 1 January 2018.  This standard requires recognised revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or 
services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled  in 
exchange  for  those  goods  or  services.  This  means  that  revenue  will  be  recognised  when  control  of  goods  or 
services is transferred, rather than on transfer of risks and rewards as is currently the case under IAS 18 Revenue.  
The Group has not yet evaluated the impact adoption of this standard will have 

(cc) 

New and amended standards adopted by the Group 

The  Group  has  applied  the  following  standards  and amendments  for  the  first  time  for  their annual  reporting 
period commencing 1 July 2014: 

  AASB  2013-3  Amendments  to  AASB  136  –  Recoverable  Amount  Disclosures  for  Non-Financial  Assets; 

and 

  AASB 2014-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards 

The adoption of these standards did not have any material impact on the current or any prior period and is not 
likely to materially affect future periods. 

Early adoption of standards 

The Group has not elected to apply any pronouncements before their operative date. 

2. 

Operating Segments 

Operating  segments  are  reported  in  a  manner  consistent  with  the  internal  reporting  provided  to  the  CEO  in 
order to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess performance of the Group.  The reports are 
split into functional divisions: Software Division, Advisory Division and GeoGAS.  

Software Division provides all of the Group’s Software offerings, including maintenance (support), training and 
implementation services to mining companies.  

Advisory Division provides consulting and advisory services which cover technical and economic analysis and 
assessment of mining activities and resources on behalf of mining companies, financial institutions, customers 
of mining companies (e.g. coal fired electricity generators), lessors and potential lessors of mineral rights to 
mining companies, government departments and agencies and suppliers to mining companies and projects. 

GeoGAS provides services to coal mining clients in respect of gas content testing and relevant consulting 
services. Segment revenue, expenses and results include transfers between segments. Such transfers are priced 
on an “arms-length” basis and are eliminated on consolidation.

RungePincockMinarco  Limited  and  its  wholly-owned  Australian  controlled  entities  implemented  the  tax 
consolidation regime from 13 March 2007. On adoption of the tax consolidation legislation, the entities in the 
tax consolidated Group entered into a tax sharing agreement which, in the opinion of the Directors, limits the 
joint  and  several  liabilities  of  the  wholly-owned  entities  in  the  case  of  a  default  by  the  head  entity, 
RungePincockMinarco Limited. 

The  entities  have  also  entered  into  a  tax  funding  agreement  under  which  the  wholly-owned  entities  fully 
compensate RungePincockMinarco Limited for any current tax payable assumed and are compensated for any 
current  tax  receivable  and  deferred  tax  assets  relating  to  unused  tax  losses  or  unused  tax  credits  that  are 
transferred to RungePincockMinarco Limited under the tax consolidated legislation.  The funding amounts are 
determined by reference to the amounts recognised in the wholly-owned entities’ financial statements. 

Significant Estimates – Deferred Tax Assets 

An assessment of the recoverability of the net deferred tax assets has been made to determine the carrying 
value. Completion of restructure in Australia significantly lowers the Company’s cost base and it is expected to 
have taxable profits in the future. At each reporting period, the recoverability of the net deferred tax assets will 
be reassessed. This may lead to the recognition of this unrecognized tax benefit in future reporting periods.

The group has derecognised deferred tax assets in its subsidiaries located in China, Russia, Chile, Brazil and 
USA because it is not probable that sufficient future taxable profit will be available. Foreign tax credits will 
expire in 2017. Capital losses do not expire, however, it is not probable that the Group would generate 
capital gains to utilise the benefit. Deductible temporary differences for have not been recognised because it 
is not probable that sufficient future taxable profit will be available.

3.0%

These assumptions have been used for the analysis of each CGU. Cash flows were projected based on approved 
financial  budgets  and  management  projections  over  a  five  year  period.  Management  determined  budgeted 
gross margin based on past performance and its expectations for the future. The weighted average growth rates 
used  are  consistent  with  forecasts  included  in  industry  reports.  The  discount  rates  used  reflect  specific  risks 
relating to the relevant segments. 

(c) 

Impairment charges 

Based on the above  assumptions and calculations, an  impairment of $2,500,000 (2014:  $3,000,000)  has been 
applied  to  goodwill  in  the  Advisory  division  as  the  carrying  amount  of  goodwill  exceeded  its  recoverable 
amount. 

(d) 

Impact of possible changes in key assumptions 

Impairment  calculations  for  GeoGAS  and  Software  divisions  are  not  sensitive  to  major  changes  in  key 
assumptions. 

Sensitivity of value in use calculations for the Advisory Division would result in further impairment summarised 
below:

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in 
proportion  to  the  number  of  and  amounts  paid  on  the  shares  held.    On  a  showing  of  hands  every  holder  of 
ordinary shares present at a meeting, in person or by proxy, is entitled to one vote and upon a poll each share is 
entitled to one vote. Ordinary shares have no par value and the  Company does not have a limited amount of 
authorised capital. 

Options 

Information  relating  to  the  RungePincockMinarco  Employee  Share  Option  Plan  (ESOP),  including  details  of 
options issued, exercised and lapsed during the financial year and options outstanding at the end of financial 
year, is set out in note 24. 

Capital Risk Management 

The Group’s objectives when managing capital include safeguarding the ability to continue as a going concern, 
so  they  continue  to  provide  returns  for  shareholders  and  benefits  for  other  stakeholders  and  to maintain  an 
optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. 

In  order  to  maintain  or  adjust  the  capital  structure,  the  Group  may  adjust  the  amount  of  dividends  paid  to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.  The Group does not 
have any externally imposed capital requirements.

Contributed Equity (Continued) 

Consistent with the industry practice, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is 
calculated as net debt divided by total capital.  Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including ‘borrowings’ 
and ‘trade and other payables’ as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position) less cash and cash 
equivalents.  Total capital is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the statement of financial position plus net debt. 

The gearing ratios at 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014 were as follows: 

Total borrowings, trade and other payables 

Less: cash and cash equivalents 

Net (cash) / debt 

Total equity

Financial Risk Management 

The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: 

 

 

 

credit risk; 

liquidity risk; and 

market risk. 

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

The  Board  of  Directors  is  ultimately  responsible  for  reviewing,  ratifying  and  monitoring  systems  of  internal 
controls and risk management.  The Board has established an Audit and Risk Committee, which is responsible 
for  overseeing  risk  management  systems.    The  Group’s  overall  risk  management  program  focuses  on  the 
unpredictability  of  financial  markets  and  seeks  to  minimise  potential  adverse  effects  on  the  financial 
performance of the  Group.  The  Group’s finance  division is responsible for development and maintenance  of 
policies which deal with each type of risk related to use of financial instruments. 

The Group holds the following financial instruments: 

Financial assets 
Cash and cash equivalents  
Trade and other receivables 1 

Financial liabilities 
Trade and other payables 2 
1 Loans and receivables 
2 At amortised cost

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

The Group does not require guarantees or collateral of its trade and other receivables.  In some foreign regions 
the Group works on a prepayment basis to avoid credit risk. 

The  Group  has  established  an  allowance  for  impairment  that  represents  an  estimate  of  incurred  losses  in 
respect  of  trade  receivables.    This  allowance  is  determined  based  on  the  specific  information  regarding 
conditions  of  a  particular  individual  debt.    The  information  regarding  the  receivables  ageing  is  monitored  by 
both finance and operations management. 

The maximum credit risk exposure of financial assets of the Group is represented by the carrying amounts of 
financial  assets  set  out  above.    The  Group  had  no  significant  concentrations  of  credit  risk  with  any  single 
counterparty or group of counterparties, other than banks or financial institutions.

               11,372  

As at 30 June 2015, trade receivables of $5,148,000 (2014: $4,815,000) were past due but not impaired. These 
relate to a number of independent customers for whom there is no recent history of default. The ageing of the 
trade receivables past due at the reporting date but not impaired was: 

Past due less than 30 days 

Past due between 31-90 days 

Past due more than 90 days 

The movement in the provision for impairment of trade receivables was as follows:

The provision for impairment of trade receivables in 2015 and 2014 relates to receivables that are past due for 
more than 90 days. 

 (b)  

Liquidity Risk 

Liquidity risk  is the  risk  that  the Group will not  be  able to meet  its financial obligations as they fall due.  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  without  incurring  unacceptable  losses  or  risking  damage  to  the  Group’s 
reputation. 

The  Group  regularly  reviews  cashflow  forecasts,  maintains  sufficient  cash  on  demand  and  has  unutilised 
borrowing facilities disclosed in note 22(c) below. 

Contractual maturities of the Group’s financial liabilities, including interest thereon, are as follows:

The Group manages its exposure to interest rate and foreign currency fluctuations through a policy approved by 
the Board of Directors.  There are no other significant market risks affecting the Group. 

(c)  

Market Risk 

Currency Risk 

The current policy is not to take any forward positions.  At 30 June 2015 and 2014 the Group had not entered 
into  any  derivative  contracts  to  hedge  these  exposures.    The  Group  does  not  engage  in  any  significant 
transactions which are speculative in nature.  

As  a  multinational  corporation,  the  Group  maintains  operations  in  foreign  countries  and  as  a  result  of  these 
activities,  the  Group  is  exposed  to  changes  in  exchange  rates  which  affect  its  results  of  operations  and  cash 
flows.

Share Based Payments 

Tax Exempt Share Plan 

The Employee Share Scheme enables the Board to issue up to $1,000 of shares tax free per employee of the 
Group each year.  

There were no shares issued under the $1,000 Share Purchase Plan in 2015 or 2014. 

Eligibility for the tax exempt share plan is approved by the board having regard to individual circumstances and 
performance.  No directors or key management personnel are eligible for the Tax Exempt Share Plan. 

Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) 

The Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) was approved by the Board of Directors on 5 February 2008, amended 
on 7 October 2009, 28 October 2011 and most recently on 29 October 2013 following approval of shareholders 
at the Company’s 2013 Annual General Meeting. 

Eligible participants of the ESOP include any person who is employed by, or is a director, officer or executive (or 
their approved permitted nominee), of the Group and whom the Board or its nominee determines is eligible to 
participate in the Option Plan.  A permitted nominee includes a company controlled by the employee, a trust in 
which the employee has, or may have entitlements or such other entity as approved by the Board. Options are 
granted at the discretion of the Board of Directors.   

All options under the ESOP are to be offered to eligible employees for no consideration. The offer to the eligible 
participant must be in writing and specify amongst other things, the number of options for which the eligible 
employee  may  apply,  the  period  within  which  the  options  may  be  exercised,  any  conditions  to  be  satisfied 
before exercise, the option expiry date and the exercise price of the options, as determined by the Board. The 
Board can impose any restrictions on the exercise of options as it considers fit.  

The rules of the ESOP plan enable the Board to determine the applicable vesting criteria and to set a timetable 
for vesting of options in the offer document, including vesting in tranches over a defined period. The Board has 
the discretion on whether or not to set performance  hurdles for vesting or to link vesting solely to a defined 
service period in order to drive key staff retention and reward longevity of service.  

The options may be exercised, in part or full, subject to the employee continuing to be employed at the relevant 
vesting dates, by the participant giving a signed notice to the Company and paying the exercise price in full. The 
Company will apply for official quotation of any Shares issued on exercise of any options. 

The rules of the plan allow the Board to set the exercise price per Option in the offer document. 

Subject to the accelerated expiry terms set out in the ESOP plan (explained further below), options will expire 
five years after the date of grant subject to the option holder remaining employed by the Group.  Unexercised 
options will automatically lapse upon expiry. Unless determined otherwise by the Board, in the event of stated 
events  detailed  in  the  plan,  including  termination  of  employment  or  resignation,  redundancy,  death  or 
disablement or in the event of a change of control of an employee’s permitted nominee, unvested options shall 
lapse and the expiry date of any vested options will be adjusted in accordance with the accelerated timetables 
set  out  in  the  ESOP  plan  rules  (subject  to  the  Board’s  discretion  to  extend  the  term  of  exercise  in  restricted 
cases).

24. 

Share Based Payments (Continued) 

Once shares are allotted upon exercise of the options the participant will hold the shares free of restrictions. 
The shares will rank equally for dividends declared on or after the date of issue but will carry no right to receive 
any  dividend  before  the  date  of  issue.  Should  the  Company  undergo  a  reorganisation  or  reconstruction  of 
capital or any other such change, the terms of the options (including number or exercise price or both) will be 
correspondingly  changed  to  the  extent  necessary  to  comply  with  the  Listing  Rules.  With  this  exception,  the 
terms for the exercise of each Option remains unchanged. In the event of a change of control of the Company, 
all  options  will  vest  immediately  and  may  be  exercised  by  the  employee  (regardless  of  whether  the  vesting 
conditions have been satisfied). A holder of options is not entitled to participate in dividends, a new or bonus 
issue  of  Shares  or  other  securities  made  by  the  Company  to  Shareholders  merely  because  he  or  she  holds 
options.  

The Options are not transferable, assignable or able to be encumbered, without Board consent and the options 
will immediately lapse upon any assignment, transfer or encumbrance, with the exception of certain dealings in 
the event of death of the option holder. 

The  ESOP  plan will  be  administered  by  the  Board which  has  an  absolute  discretion  to  determine  appropriate 
procedures  for  its  administration  and  resolve  questions  of  fact  or  interpretation  and  formulate  terms  and 
conditions (subject to the Listing Rules) in addition to those set out in the ESOP plan.  

The ESOP plan may be terminated or suspended at any time by the Board. The ESOP plan may be amended or

The weighted average remaining contractual life of share options outstanding at the end of the period was 3.3 
years (2014: 2.9 years). 

The fair values at grant date for non-market options (EBITA & EPS and Service vesting conditions) were 
estimated using a Trinomial Lattice model which defines the conditions under which employees are expected to 
exercise their options after vesting in terms of the stock price reaching a specified multiple of the exercise price.  

The  fair  values  at  grant  date  for  market  options  (TSR  vesting  condition)  were  estimated  using  a  Monte  Carlo 
simulation and a trinomial tree (Hoadley’s Hybrid Employee Share Option model - outperform index).

Share Based Payments (Continued) 

The expected price volatility is based on the historic volatility compared to that of similar listed companies and 
the remaining life of the options.  This has been adjusted to take into consideration the recent extreme market 
movements using a mean reversion tendency of volatilities (the concept of volatility returning to normal levels 
after going to an extreme).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

To the members of RungePincockMinarco Limited 

Report on the Financial Report 

We have audited the accompanying financial report of RungePincockMinarco Limited, which comprises 
the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2015, the consolidated statement 
comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated 
statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting 
policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity 
comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the 
financial year.  

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report 

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a 
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the 
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to 
fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 
Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply with International 
Financial Reporting Standards.  

Auditor’s Responsibility  

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our 
audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with 
relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.   

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in 
the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the 
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. 
In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the company’s 
preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures 
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the 
effectiveness of the company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness 
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as 
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.   

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 
for our audit opinion.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 

Corporate Governance Statement – Year Ended 30 June 2015 

The Board and Management consider that it is crucial to the Group’s long term performance and sustainability 
and to protect and enhance the interests of the Company’s shareholders and other stakeholders, that it adopts 
an  appropriate  corporate  governance  framework  pursuant  to  which  the  Company  and  its  related  companies 
globally  will  conduct  its  operations  in  Australia  and  internationally  with  integrity,  accountability  and  in  a 
transparent and open manner. 

The  Company  regularly  reviews  its  governance  arrangements  as  well  as  developments  in  market  practice, 
expectations and regulation. 

The  Company’s  Corporate  Governance  Statement  has  been  approved  by  the  Board  of  RungePincockMinarco 
Limited and explains how the Group addresses the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, the ASX Listing 
‘Corporate  Governance  Principles  and 
Rules  2001  and  the  ASX  Corporate  Governance  Council’s 
Recommendations - 3rd Edition’ (the ‘ASX Principles and Recommendations’) and is current as at 30 June 2015.  

The  Company’s  ASX  Appendix  4G,  which 
is  a  checklist  cross-referencing  the  ASX  Principles  and 
Recommendations  to  the  relevant  disclosures  in  the  statement  Corporate  Governance  Statement,  the

in 

The Board of the Company strives to meet the highest standards of Corporate Governance, but recognises that 
it is also crucial that the Company’s governance framework reflects the current size, operations and industry in 
which the Company operates. 

The Company has complied with the majority of recommendations of the ASX Principles and Recommendations 
with  the  exception  of  a  few.  The  Board  believes  the  areas  of  non-conformance,  which  are  explained  in  the 
Corporate Governance Statement and the ASX Appendix 4G do not materially impact on the Company’s ability 
to achieve the highest standards of Corporate  Governance,  whilst  at the same time ensuring the Company is 
able to achieve the expectations of its shareholders and other stakeholders.
