Our aim is to provide Shareholders with a concentrated portfolio of securities undervalued and under appreciated by the market. We have no interest in building a portfolio that tracks commonly used benchmarks, but to instead focus on investing in what we consider to be outstanding and, in some cases, unique opportunities. We believe that our disciplined and patient approach will continue to deliver strong absolute risk-adjusted returns over the long term, whilst preserving shareholder capital in times of heightened uncertainty and volatility. Ryder Capital Limited (Ryder or Company) has had another successful year, its fourth full financial year since listing in September 2015. Portfolio performance was strong both nominally and relatively in what was broadly a difficult year for equity markets. Total comprehensive income after tax increased 149% from $3,086,827 to $7,677,559. Gross portfolio performance of 16.1%, comfortably exceeded the Company’s performance benchmark. During the year, the Manager sold several long-term portfolio investments on valuation grounds and realised material gains as a consequence of two takeovers which are reflected in the Company’s capital profits reserve increasing 48% from $11,424,280 to $16,944,472 which when added to the increase to company’s profit reserve to $1,916,989 takes total distributable profits to $18,861,461 equivalent to $0.321 per share. This increase is net of dividends paid during the period of $2,956,336. Dividends for FY20 totalled $0.05 fully franked per share, an increase of $0.01 or +25% on the prior year. With approximately $0.321 cents per share of distributable profits at 30 June 2020, the Company is in a healthy position to continue to pay steady to increasing fully franked dividends over time. At 30 June 2020 approximately 82.1% of the Company’s capital was deployed in equities and 17.9% held in cash, term deposits or other liquid investments. As the Company’s share price continued to trade at a discount to Net Tangible Assets (NTA) the Company’s buyback took advantage of this mis-pricing via the accretive purchase of 639,598 ordinary shares for an outlay of $827,182 equating to an average buyback price of $1.2933 per share. The Company will continue to buy back shares where it is accretive, balanced against the benefits of holding available cash for investing in generating further performance and growth in the Company’s NTA. When reviewing the Company’s investment performance for FY20 we focus on measuring the Company’s pre-tax undiluted NTA period to period, which once adjusted for dividends resulted in a gain of 12.34%. This return and that of the Company’s diluted pre-tax NTA together with a detailed portfolio disclosure, discussion, performance and risk analysis is presented in the Investment Manager’s Report which I encourage you to read. 1 The Company’s share price increased from $1.25 to $1.33 during the year. When taking into account the $0.05 fully franked dividends paid during the year, the share price return of 10.40% for FY20 compares to the undiluted pre-tax NTA return of 12.34% reflecting a small widening of the discount to NTA, though noting this analysis excludes the tax benefits of franking credits received. It remains disappointing to my fellow Directors and I to see the share price trade at a consistent discount to NTA. There are a number of factors at play, some of which are manageable by us while others will naturally resolve over the medium term as we continue to demonstrate the Company’s superior risk-adjusted outperformance of equity market indices and that of alternative Investment Managers. The prospective exercise of Secondary Options (RYDOA) in December 2021 will have a substantially less dilutionary impact on the Company’s expanded capital base than the first option series (RYDO) had and as such should be less of a drag on both NTA and share price performance. As the investment in Updater Inc. (Updater) involves an unlisted investment, underlying operational progress and value accretion is not easily reflected in the Company’s NTA until such time as a liquidity event can validate progress. Your Investment Manager, together with the Directors have formed a view that the value of Updater remains fairly reflected in the Company’s accounts and that Updater remains prospective as a contributor to future portfolio performance. The Company enters FY21 having made a strong start in July +6.91%, with a balanced portfolio of investments that are well positioned to perform in what is inevitably going to be a more challenging environment to generate returns. Cash and equivalents are currently at 17.9% providing the Investment Manager substantial flexibility to capitalise on opportunities as they arise. Following continued positive investment performance, large realised capital gains flowing through to the capital profits reserve and together with a positive start and outlook to FY21, the Board declared a $0.03 fully franked final dividend bringing the full year FY20 dividend to $0.05 per share fully franked, an increase of 25% from FY19. The Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on 22 October 2020 where the formal business of the Company will be conducted. At the AGM there will be an opportunity for shareholders to ask questions regarding the investment portfolio, investment markets and the outlook for the Company at that time. Finally, I would like to thank all Shareholders for their continued support, and I look forward to seeing you at our AGM. Yours faithfully, Peter Constable Chairman Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Investment Manager's Report Gross portfolio performance for the year to 30 June 2020 (FY20) was 16.1%. This return was achieved whilst holding an average cash balance though the year of approximately 18.65%. It should be noted that these returns exclude the various costs associated with running and administering the Company, such as management and performance fees, ASX listing fees and other third-party expenses as stated in the Annual Report. Set out in the table below is the Company’s gross portfolio performance and pre-tax undiluted net tangible assets (NTA) performance(3) to 30 June 2020 which takes into account the historical NTA dilution caused by the exercise of 22.5m options in December 2018 and net of capital reductions as a result of the Company’s share buyback. 3 Months (%) 6 Months (%) 1 Year (%) 3 Years (% per annum) Since Inception(2) (%) Since Inception(2) (% per annum) Gross Portfolio Performance 22.86 3.33 16.09 20.40 126.31 NTA Return (Pre-tax Undiluted)(3) 20.64 2.46 12.34 15.68 89.57 NTA Return (Pre Tax)(1) 20.64 2.61 12.62 12.77 75.60 Hurdle RBA Cash Rate + 4.25% Return Excess Return NTA Return (Pre-tax Undiluted)(3) - RBA Cash Rate + 4.25% 1.10 2.31 4.93 5.47 29.97 19.54 0.14 7.41 10.21 59.59 18.65 14.33 12.51 5.64 8.69 1.

Inception Date is 22 September 2015. 3. Pre-tax NTA return adjusted for the dilution of the exercised 26.7m RYDO options. This report is focussed on portfolio performance however, it is important to reinforce that Shareholders should review performance at both the portfolio (gross portfolio performance) and Company (pre-tax undiluted NTA return) levels adjusted for any dividends or other distributions for the Company during the reporting period. In keeping with previous years, we call out some of our peers who continue to present “gross” portfolio returns for the purposes of measuring investment performance. We consider these practices to be misleading given they artificially inflate returns as they deliberately exclude the fees and expenses incurred in achieving their returns and therefore comparing theirs to ours is not meaningful in our opinion. We encourage Shareholders to focus on the net movement in Ryder’s pre-tax undiluted NTA from period to period and compare those returns to that of cash and other relevant equity market indices as per below.

Tactically, the Portfolio was well positioned for the COVID-19 market sell off in March with approximately 24.3% held in cash as at 29 February 2020. With the downturn came a loss in market liquidity in many of our holdings, causing us to utilise our hedging ability by selling Share Price Index futures (SPI) to manage market risk, successfully adding a net 1.16% to gross performance. Strong gains in our long held positions of Betmakers Technology Group Limited, NextDC Limited and more recently acquired position in MacMahon Holdings Limited were partially offset by mark to market losses in SRG Global Limited and Tubi Limited and a realised loss in Comet Ridge Limited where we exited entirely. Despite strategic and operational progress at Updater Inc., the Directors have assessed that there was no change in the underlying carrying USD value per share. 3 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Investment Manager's Report FY20 Top 3 Contributors and Detractors Betmakers Technology Group Ltd NextDC Ltd Macmahon Holdings Ltd Comet Ridge Ltd Tubi Ltd SRG Global Ltd $(6,000,000) $(4,000,000) $(2,000,000) $- $2,000,000 $4,000,000 $6,000,000 $8,000,000 For FY20 the portfolio generated $28,188,931 of capital gains (realised and unrealised) which were offset by capital losses (realised and unrealised) of $14,852,493 resulting in a net capital gain before interest and dividend income of $13,336,438 for the year. FY20 dividend income received was $2,395,790 fully franked while interest income received on term deposits and cash was $158,191. At 30 June 2020, approximately 82% of the Company’s capital was in equities with approximately 18% held in cash, term deposits and net receivables. Portfolio Activity During the year we exited our long held investment in Pacific Energy Limited (PEA) by way of a takeover. Despite a long holding period where PEA traded consistently and materially below its intrinsic worth, the emergence of motivated buyers and PEA’s attractive market position and annuity style income resulted in a competitive process that culminated in a takeover valuation approximately double our book cost inclusive of an attractive franking credit component. Our investment in media company QMS Limited was short lived with a takeover by Quadrant Private Equity taking us out in under six months at what we considered to be only fair value at the time, but now in hindsight and post COVID-19 a good price. On valuation grounds we reduced our holdings in NextDC Limited prior to COVID-19 and then with the work from home cloud computing dynamics enhancing NXT’s prospects, we used the April 2020 capital raising to rebuild our exposure at attractive prices. Consistent with our broader concerns around currency devaluations driven by central bank money printing we increased our defensive posture with increased exposure to gold through holdings in Australian gold producers, Gold Road Limited, Ramelius Resources Limited and Silver Lake Resources Limited which together with a rebuilt position in Aurelia Metals Limited represents portfolio exposure of ~8% to gold. Additional exposure was acquired in SRG Global Limited as it stumbled through successive earnings downgrades and an underperforming share price. New additions during the period include 3P Learning Limited, Cash Converters Intl Limited, Fineos Corporation Holdings PLC - CDI and Imdex Limited. Portfolio Strike Rate Shareholders will recall our interest in presenting our Strike Rate form. Consistent with the analysis presented last year and given the portfolio has now completed its fourth full financial year, the measures set our below are based only on realised profits since inception. 4 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Investment Manager's Report Strike Rate Analysis – Inception to Date (30 June 2020) Strike Rate Analysis Gross Realised Portfolio Profits Gross Realised Portfolio Losses Net Realised Portfolio Profit Win/Loss Strike Rate Portfolio $37,063,028 -$9,020,474 $28,042,554 75.66% $4.11 Note: ignores dividends, interest, taxes and expenses and relies on unaudited management analysis Referring to the analysis above, the portfolio segment identifies the Portfolio’s gross realised profits since inception to 30 June 2020 of $37,063,028 compared to the Portfolio’s gross realised losses since inception of ($9,020,474). The net of these results is a net realised portfolio profit since inception of $28,042,554. Observing the above, we note that: 1. the net realised portfolio profit of $28,042,554 is 75.66% of the gross realised portfolio profit of $37,063,028, that is we retained ~75.66% of gains, or thinking of it as a decision ratio, our poor decisions eroded our successful decisions by approximately 24.34%; and 2. that total profits divided by total losses for the period (since inception to 30 June 2020) is 4.11x, indicating that for every $4.11 profit made, $1.00 was lost. Given the volatility and uncertainty FY20 has presented, our ability to maintain a high strike rate is pleasing. While this number is slightly lower than last year, there are considerable mark-to-market gains in the portfolio yet to be realised which will further strengthen the strike rate in the future. Risk Adjusted Returns & Relative NTA Performance At the risk of stating the obvious, not all investment returns are equal - some returns are achieved by taking significantly greater or less risk than other returns. Our goal at Ryder is to achieve medium to long term returns above the Company’s hurdle of RBA Cash rate + 4.25% while minimising risk. Investment risk is commonly measured using the standard deviation of returns over time from the mean return of an asset or in our case Ryder’s pre-tax undiluted NTA return. The higher the standard deviation (think volatility) the riskier the underlying investment and/or strategy. Typically, the two travel together, that is risk and return correlate over time since additional risk should be compensated for with additional returns The following chart plots returns against risk and helps to illustrate the quality of returns achieved. The ideal position is towards the top left corner with the highest returns and lowest level of risk. Over the past three years, Ryder has outperformed the index and other domestic managers, generating materially higher returns for a similar level of risk. . ) . a p % ( n r u t e r t e n x a t - e r P 20.00% 15.00% 10.00% 5.00% 0.00% -5.00% -10.00% RYD RYD All Ords Index Small Ords Index Domestic equities manager median 1 year return 3 year return Domestic equities manager median All Ords Index Small Ords Index 0.00% 5.00% 10.00% Pre-tax net return standard deviation 15.00% 20.00% 25.00% 30.00% 35.00% 1. Returns are calculated using monthly pre-tax NTA values including dividends (excluding franking) and adjusted for the dilutionary impact of options exercised resulting in an increase in issued capital by 5% or greater during the period 2. A sample of 40 domestic equity managers are included in this analysis taken from the Bell Potter and Morningstar research universe. Funds included in this analysis are only a selection of Listed Investment Companies (LIC) on the ASX and are intended to form a representative sample of LIC’s based on strategy, size and past performance 5 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Investment Manager's Report Risk and return can be analysed using two well known ratios, the first being the Sharpe Ratio which is calculated as excess return over a benchmark divided by volatility (standard deviation). The Sharpe ratio measures excess return per unit of risk, including both downside and upside volatility. The second ratio is a variant on the Sharpe Ratio, called the Sortino Ratio which only looks at downside standard deviation, i.e. downside volatility with respect to a specified benchmark, the most commonly used being the cash rate. This would be the most appropriate measure to consider since upside volatility is what investors seek to target, i.e. positive returns and therefore upside volatility should not be taken into account the same way as downside volatility. A greater amount of consistent positive monthly performance compared to negative performance over time will result in a higher Sortino ratio value. The below table sets out Ryder's Sharpe and Sortino ratios and those of two ASX market indices for comparator purposes: Sharpe ratio Sortino ratio Ryder Small Ords Accumulation Index All Ords Accumulation Index 1 year 2 years 3 years ITD 1 year 2 years 3 years ITD 0.53 0.45 0.93 1.01 0.77 0.66 1.56 1.71 ** ** 0.28 0.51 ** ** 0.38 0.71 ** 0.06 0.30 0.49 ** 0.07 0.37 0.64 ** Sharpe/Sortino ratio values which are negative are not appropriate for analysis and have therefore been excluded Ryder’s Sharpe and Sortino ratios demonstrate superior risk adjusted investment returns than the comparator ASX market indices. Of particular note is our strong Sortino ratio which is logical given we have a value bias (stocks perform better in a negative market) and we consistently hold relatively large amounts of cash, dampening downside risk/volatility. In summary, the positive Sortino ratio above comparator indices demonstrates Ryder's ability to deliver outperformance with less risk. Another way to compare the level of risk between the returns of Ryder and that of the ASX market indices is to look at the distribution of monthly returns. Whilst we do not usually focus on short term returns, it is important to note that long term returns are made up of a series of short term returns over time and therefore should still be examined. The tables below analyse the distribution of Ryder’s monthly returns since inception with two comparator ASX indices. On average, Ryder significantly outperforms during negative periods for both indices consistent with the Sharpe and Sortino ratio analysis above. This is a reflection of the importance Ryder places on assessing risk in our investment framework.

Note some funds have been excluded as the data does not allow for meaningful comparison due to factors such as period of operation (fund commenced after September 2015), fund strategy, fund size and data integrity. This analysis is a little imperfect as each fund pursues slightly different strategies however, the one common goal for each fund and investment manager is to generate the highest available return per unit of risk over time. As such, analysing each LIC’s relative returns, Sharpe and Sortino ratios is instructive when reviewing absolute and comparative performance over time. Set out below are Ryder’s Since Inception to Date (ITD) returns, Sharpe and Sortino ratios in comparison to 48 other ASX LICs (using an inception date of September 2015).

Sortino ratio is calculated as excess annualised return above the risk free rate (0.25% p.a.) divided by downside deviation of monthly returns (annualised), using a benchmark of 0.25% p.a. for the period of 30 Sep 2015 to 30 June 2020 Ryder has outperformed both absolutely and relatively on all measures. Outlook As we look ahead there are substantially fewer knowns and substantially more unknowns than at any other time in our recent memory and certainly at any other time during Ryder’s existence. Investors are chasing the knowns and paying a very high price for these which is particulary evident in growth, healthcare and technology stocks both domestically and internationally. The worlds, regional and domestic economies are battling the COVID-19 health pandemic with the economic impacts remaining highly uncertain in depth, breadth and timing. Geopolitical tensions are increasing beyond the US and China and as the US enters a critical election period those tensions could intensify further with volatility likely to be directly correlated. This backdrop is not one that should be supportive of record high asset prices however, the magic of zero interest rates and record fiscal stimulus has forced risk aversion aside and created an environment where it seems almost anything goes. This may go on for some time longer, as ultimately we are in uncharted waters with little in the way of fundamentals or historic analysis to guide us. With a mixed backdrop and divergent views we expect to see more opportunities for mispricing and opportunities for Ryder. In the absence of sensible, value oriented opportunities we will look to increase our cash weightings, maintain or increase our exposure to gold and other safe havens while actively looking to increase our portfolio exposure to low multiple cash generative companies and at the same time staying away from the momentum driven high priced market stars of late.

During the year, the Company was able to acquire 639,598 ordinary shares for an outlay of $827,182 equating to an average buyback price of $1.2933 per share. The Company will continue to buy back shares where it is accretive, balanced against the benefits of holding available cash for investing in generating further performance and growth in the Company’s NTA. Net Tangible Assets (NTA) per share before tax increased from 150.31 cents per share to 163.81 cents per share during the reporting period. Noting this increase was after the payment of 5.0 cents per share fully franked. In the period, the Investment Manager sold several long-term portfolio investments on valuation grounds and realised material gains as a consequence of two takeovers which are reflected in the Company’s capital profits reserve increasing by 48% or $5,520,192 to $16,944,472 which when added to the increase to Company’s profit reserve to $1,916,989 takes total distributable profits to $18,861,461, equivalent to $0.321 per share. This increase is net of dividends paid during the period of $2,956,336. At 30 June 2020 approximately 82.10% of the Company’s capital was deployed in equities with approximately 17.90% held in cash, term deposits and net receivables. Updater completed a debt and equity raising in December 2019 to assist with the strategic acquisition of Bridgevine LLC. The capital raised exceeded the acquisition funding requirements, providing Updater with additional growth capital. As a consequence of this and the impacts of COVID-19 on Updater, the Investment Manager conducted a detailed review of the valuation of Updater as of 30 June 2020. Directors are satisfied that Updater’s business plan whilst impacted by the initial fall in the number of movers in America during Q2 2020 remains intact and the company is well positioned to execute against its plans as American mobility returns in the second half of 2020 and into 2021. In March 2020, as a consequence of the COVID-19 induced currency volatility (Australian dollar versus the US dollar) the Investment Manager requested that Directors of Ryder Capital Ltd approve a change in the underlying reporting currency of the Updater common shares to US dollars (in order to better reflect the underlying equity value of this investment as distinct from movements in the currency). This change created a US Dollar equity asset in the Portfolio which will allow the Investment Manager to manage currency risk as distinct from equity risk. To date the Investment Manager has not hedged any of the US dollar Updater exposure. This change had no material impact on the carrying value of Updater, and overall provided a net benefit during the period equating to $237,933. COVID-19 has brought unprecedented challenges for individuals, companies and consequentially, global equity markets. The Investment Manager demonstrated strong nominal and relative performance in the period and successfully managed market risk and portfolio volatility within the Company’s Investment Guidelines. The Investment Manager and the Company are conscious of the ongoing impact and uncertainty of COVID-19 and the Portfolio has been actively managed to reduce risk while taking advantage of attractive opportunities as they arise in this period of increased market volatility. Ryder has taken steps to ensure that the Investment Manager is able to continue operations uninterrupted with employees having the facilities to work from home if required. The Company is aware of the likelihood that investee companies may continue to decrease, delay or cancel dividends. Ryder is well positioned against dividend fluctuations as the Portfolio’s primary objective is long term capital growth with income generation as a secondary objective. Notwithstanding, the Company’s dividend payments for the year were increased from 4.0 cents fully franked in FY19 to 5.0 cents fully franked in FY20. The Board anticipates that due to strong profit reserves, shareholder dividends should be well insulated in the short to medium term. Dividends On 9 August 2019, the Directors declared a fully franked dividend of 3.00 cents per share paid on 4 September 2019 on ordinary shares held as at record date 15 August 2019. On 18 February 2020, the Directors declared a fully franked dividend of 2.00 cents per share paid on 23 March 2020 on ordinary shares held as at record date 9 March 2020. On 14 August 2020, the Directors declared a fully franked dividend of 3.00 cents per share which will be paid on 9 September 2020 on ordinary shares held as at record date 20 August 2020 (ex-dividend date of 19 August 2020). 12 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Directors' Report Unissued Shares Upon the exercise of an Initial Option, the Company issued holders a Secondary Option over one Share, with each Secondary Option exercisable at $1.50 on or before 10 December 2021.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Ryder Capital Limited ("the Company") is a publicly listed company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Company was incorporated with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission ("ASIC") on 26 June 2015. The registered office and principal place of business of the Company is Level 25, 88 Phillip Street, Sydney NSW 2000. The Company's principal activity is investing in a concentrated portfolio of ASX and small capitalisation securities, bonds and cash consistent with the Company's permitted investments and stated investment objective of achieving long term growth in capital and income. Updater Inc. delisted from the ASX in October 2018 and became a privately held Delaware incorporated company. In September 2018, the Board of Directors resolved to amend the Company’s investment strategy to allow for continued ownership of Updater Inc. notwithstanding it being an unlisted Delaware incorporated company. These general purpose financial statements are for the year ended 30 June 2020, and were authorised for issue by the Directors on 14 August 2020. The material accounting policies adopted by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements is set out below: (a) Basis of preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards, issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001. For the purposes of preparing financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity. The Company is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. The financial statements, except for cash flow information, have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified where applicable, by the measurement of fair value of selected assets and liabilities. (b) Statement of Compliance The financial statements and notes thereto comply with Australian Accounting Standards as issued by the AASB and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). (c) Investments i) Recognition/derecognition The Company recognises financial assets and financial liabilities on the date it becomes party to the contractual agreement (trade date) and recognises changes in fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities from this date. Investments are derecognised when the right to receive cash flows from the investments has expired or the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. ii) Classification and Measurement The Company’s investments are categorised as follows: Financial instruments held at fair value through profit or loss (short-term equity investments) Financial assets and liabilities held at fair value through profit or loss are measured initially at fair value excluding any transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset or financial liability. Transaction costs on financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are expensed immediately. Subsequent to initial recognition, all instruments held at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with changes in their fair value recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Derivative financial instruments such as futures are included under this classification. The Company does designate any derivatives as hedges in a hedging relationship. Financial instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (long-term equity investments) Long-term equity investments are recognised initially at cost and the Company has irrevocably elected to present subsequent changes in the fair value of the investments in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Long term equity investments comprise holdings in marketable equity securities which are intended to be held for the long term. iii) Fair Value The Company determines the fair value of listed investments at the last quoted price. The fair value of investments that are not traded in an active market are determined using valuation techniques. These include the use of arm's length market transactions, reference to the current fair value of a substantially similar other instrument, discounted cash flow techniques, option pricing models or any other valuation techniques that provide a reliable estimate of prices obtained in actual market transactions. 23 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (c) Investments (continued) iv) Impairment of financial assets The Company assesses whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly based on the change in the risk of default since initial recognition. In making this assessment, the Company considers both quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportable, including historical experience and forward-looking information that is available without undue cost or effort. Such information includes: - contractual payments are more than 30 days past due, unless the Company has reasonable and supportable information that indicates otherwise; The Company considers the following to represent default events for the purpose of measuring expected credit losses: - contractual payments are more than 30 days past due, unless the Company has reasonable and supportable information that indicates a more lagging default criterion is more appropriate; The foregoing indicators of default have been selected based on the Company’s historical experience. (d) Foreign currency translation (i) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the Company’s financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (the “functional currency”). This is the Australian dollar, which reflects the currency of the economy in which the Company competes for funds and is regulated. The Australian dollar is also the Company’s presentation currency. (ii) Transactions and balances Transactions during the period denominated in foreign currency have been translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. Overseas investments and currency, together with any accrued income, are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions, and from the translation at balance date exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognised in other comprehensive income. Net exchange gains and losses arising on the revaluation of long-term equity investments are included in gains and losses presented in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. (e) Income tax The charge for current income tax expense is based on the taxable income for the period. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Current and deferred taxes are recognised in profit or loss except where they relate to items that may be recognised directly in equity, such as unrealised gains and losses on long-term equity, in which case they are adjusted directly against equity. Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the Company will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by law. (f) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as being part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as an asset or liability in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. 24 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (g) Income Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Dividend income is recognised in profit or loss on the day on which the relevant investment is first quoted on an “ex-dividend” basis. Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' category are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. This may also include foreign exchange gains and losses when applicable. (h) Cash and cash equivalents 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 convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset. (i) Receivables Receivables may include amounts for dividends, interest and securities sold. Dividends are receivable when they have been declared and are legally payable. Interest is accrued at the balance date from the time of last payment. Amounts receivable for securities sold are recorded when a sale has occurred. Such assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. Receivables are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine the need to raise a loss allowance for expected credit losses. The entity has applied the simplified approach to measure expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, a review is undertaken of the nature of the receivables, the counterparty, the days overdue and the economic environment. (j) Payables These amounts represent liabilities for amounts owing by the Company at period end which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Amounts payable for securities purchased are recorded when the purchase has occurred. (k) Issued capital 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. (l) Earnings per share i) Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders 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, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the period. ii) Diluted earnings per share 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 potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares. Potential ordinary shares are anti-dilutive when their conversion to ordinary shares would increase earnings per share or decrease the loss per share from continuing operations. The calculation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion, exercise or other issue of potential ordinary shares that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share. (m) Dividends Provisions for dividends payable are recognised in the reporting period in which they are declared, for the entire undistributed amount, regardless of the extent to which they will be paid in cash. 25 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (n) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, management of the Company is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of some assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are considered to be relevant, and reasonable under the circumstance. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. The methods used in the valuation of investments are set out in Note 1(c) to these financial statements. (o) New and amended standards adopted by the Company There are no new standards, interpretations or amendments to existing standards that are effective for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 July 2019 that have a material impact on the Company. (p) New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2020, and have not been early adopted in preparing these financial statements. None of these are expected to have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company. (q) Rounding of amounts to nearest dollar In accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, the amounts in the Directors’ Report and in the financial report have been rounded to the nearest dollar (where indicated). 2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (a) Objectives, strategies, policies and processes The objective of the Company is to achieve long term growth in capital and income through investments in a concentrated portfolio of ASX and small capitalisation securities, bonds and cash consistent with the Company’s permitted investments. The Company is managed from an Australian investor’s perspective with tax and currency exposures forming important considerations in the daily management of the Company, whilst complying with the Company’s Prospectus dated 12 August 2015. Financial risk management is carried out by the Investment Manager under the guidance of its Chief Investment Officer. The Company’s activities are exposed to different types of financial risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, and price risk), being the primary risk, and credit risk. The Company may employ derivative financial instruments to hedge these risk exposures in order to minimise the effects of these risks. (b) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Market prices generally incorporate credit risk assessments into valuations and risk of loss is implicitly provided for in the carrying value of assets and liabilities as they are marked to market at balance date. The total credit risk for assets is therefore limited to the amount carried in the Statement of Financial Position. The Investment Manager is responsible for ensuring there is appropriate diversification across counterparties and that they are of a sufficient quality rating. The Investment Manager minimises the Company's concentration of credit risk by undertaking most transactions in ASX listed securities with a large number of approved brokers. Payment is only made once a broker has received securities and delivery of securities only occurs once the broker received payment. Cash The majority of the Company's short term deposits are invested with financial institutions that have a Standard and Poor's credit rating of AA-. The majority of maturities are within three months. The weighted average interest rate of the Company's cash and cash equivalents at 30 June 2020 is 1.26% (2019: 1.71%). Receivables The majority of the Company's receivables arise from interest yet to be received. None of these assets exposed to credit risk are overdue or considered to be impaired. 26 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued) (c) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. This risk is controlled through the Company’s investment in financial instruments, which under market conditions are readily convertible to cash. In addition, the Company maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet normal operating requirements. Maturity analysis for financial liabilities The table in the succeeding page analyses the Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at reporting date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Less than 1 month 1-6 months 6-12 months Over 12 months As at 30 June 2020 Trade and other payables Due to brokers - payable for securities purchased Total Financial Liabilities As at 30 June 2019 Trade and other payables Due to brokers - payable for securities purchased Total Financial Liabilities $ 1,525,208 158,045 1,683,253 99,943 723,514 823,457 $ - - - - - - $ - - - - - - (d) Market risk Total $ 1,525,208 158,045 1,683,253 99,943 723,514 823,457 $ - - - - - - Market risk represents the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. By its nature, as a listed investment company that invests in tradeable securities, the Company will always be subject to market risk as it invests its capital in securities which are not risk free. The market prices of these securities can and do fluctuate in accordance with multiple factors. The Company seeks to reduce market risk by investing in equity securities where there is a significant 'margin of safety' between the underlying companies' value and share price. The Company has set parameters as to a maximum margin of safety in addition to having set parameters regarding a maximum amount of the portfolio that can be invested in a single company or sector as prescribed in the Prospectus. (i) Interest rate risk The Company's interest bearing financial assets expose it to risks associated with the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on its financial position and cash flows, the risk is measured using sensitivity analysis on page 29. Interest rate risk is actively managed by the Investment Manager. The majority of the Company's interest bearing assets are held with reputable banks to ensure the Company obtains competitive rates of return while providing sufficient liquidity to meet cash flow requirements. 27 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued) (d) Market risk (continued) (i) Interest rate risk (continued) The table below summarises the Company's exposure to interest rates risk. It includes the Company's assets and liabilities at fair values, categorised by the earlier of contractual repricing or maturity date.

Other price risk exposure arises from the Company's investment portfolio. (iii) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial commitment, recognised asset or liability will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency rates. The Company holds assets denominated in currencies other than the Australian dollar (being the functional currency) and is therefore exposed to foreign currency risk when the value of assets denominated in other currencies fluctuates due to movements in exchange rates. The Company may enter into foreign exchange forward contracts both to hedge the foreign exchange risk implicit in the value of portfolio securities denominated in foreign currency and to secure a particular exchange rate for a planned purchase or sale of securities. 28 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued) (d) Market risk (continued) (iv) Sensitivity analysis The following tables show the sensitivity of the Company’s operating profit/other comprehensive income and equity to price risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. The reasonably possible movements in the risk variables have been determined based on the Investment Manager’s best estimate, having regard to a number of factors, including historical levels of changes in interest rates, historical correlation of the Company’s investments with the relevant benchmark and market volatility. However, actual movements in the risk variables may be greater or less than anticipated due to a number of factors, including unusually large market shocks resulting from changes in the performance of the securities in which the Company invests. As a result, historic variations in risk variables are not a definitive indicator of future variations in the risk variables. Price risk Impact on other comprehensive income -10% (8,027,194) -10% (6,750,676) +10% 8,027,194 +10% 6,750,676 Income rate risk Impact on other comprehensive income Foreign exchange risk Impact on other comprehensive income -100 bps - -100 bps - +100 bps - +100 bps - -10% (985,923) -10% - +10% 985,923 +10% - Price risk Impact on operating profit/ (loss) Income rate risk Impact on operating profit/ (loss) Foreign exchange risk Impact on operating profit/ (loss) -10% - -10% - +10% - +10% - -100 bps (1,742) -100 bps (3,962) +100 bps 1,742 +100 bps 3,962 -10% - -10% - +10% - +10% - 30 June 2020 30 June 2019 30 June 2020 30 June 2019 3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT The Company measures and recognises the following assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis: - Long term equity investments Fair value hierarchy AASB 13: Fair value measurement requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the fair value hierarchy: Level 1 - measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 - measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability; and Level 3 - measurements based on unobservable inputs from the asset or liability. 29 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (continued) (a) Recognised fair value measurements The following table presents the Company’s assets measured and recognised at fair value as at 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2019.

As at 30 June 2019, the Investment Manager had transferred the Company’s investments in listed equities from level 1 to level 3 on the fair value hierarchy on the basis that security Updater Inc. (ASX: UPD) was removed from official list of ASX Limited on the 10 October 2018 and became an unlisted Delaware incorporated Company. 30 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Notes to the Financial Statements 3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (continued) (c) Fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (level 3) The following table presents the movement in level 3 instruments for the year ended 30 June 2020 by class of financial instrument. Unlisted investments Total Opening balance – 1 July 2018 Transfer into/(out) from Level 3 Purchases Sales Unrealised gains recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income Closing balance – 30 June 2019 Transfer into/(out) from Level 3 Purchases Sales Unrealised gains recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income Closing balance – 30 June 2020 $ - 4,725,355 - - 4,895,937 9,621,292 - - - 237,933 9,859,225 $ - 4,725,355 - - 4,895,937 9,621,292 237,933 9,859,225 (i) Valuation inputs and relationships to fair value The following table summarises the quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the level 3 fair value measurements. Description Fair value $ Unobservable inputs Range of inputs (probability- weighted average) Relationship of unobservable inputs to fair value As at 30 June 2020 Updater Inc. 9,859,225 Last trade price As at 30 June 2019 Updater Inc. 9,621,292 Last trade price N/A N/A N/A N/A Updater Inc. (Updater) an unlisted Delaware incorporated company was carried at a value of A$24.875 per Common Stock as at 30 June 2019. This was the equivalent value of its last traded ASX price (8 October 2018) for Updater post CDI to common stock and stock consolidation at a ratio of 25:1 (CDI to Common Stock). During the period however, Ryder Investment Management Pty Ltd (“RYDM”) decided to restate the investment into its base currency (USD) and then convert this in line with the daily foreign exchange (FX) rate to AUD. As such, the investment is being carried at USD$17.55 per Common Stock, with a total value of A$9.859m as at 30 June 2020 taking into account the FX movement during the year. As at 30 June 2019, insufficient observable private market or other data was available to determine the fair value for the Company’s Investment in Updater. As such, a qualified audit opinion was issued in the respect of this matter in the prior year. Since then, Updater’s management have provided its shareholders with further information. Using this new information, RYDM prepared a discounted cash flow model which supports the carrying value of the Company’s investment in Updater as at 30 June 2020. Valuation processes (ii) Portfolio reviews are undertaken regularly by the Investment Manager to identify securities that potentially may not be actively traded or have stale security pricing. This process identifies securities which possibly could be regarded as being level 3 securities. Further analysis, should it be required, is undertaken to determine the accounting significance of the identification. For certain security types, in selecting the most appropriate valuation model, management performs back testing and considers actual market transactions. Changes in allocation to or from level 3 are analysed at the end of each reporting period. 31 Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 (iii) Description of significant unobservable inputs to valuation The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorised within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, together with a quantitative sensitivity analysis as at 30 June 2020 are shown below. Description Unobservable inputs Value Sensitivity Ordinary shares at fair value through other comprehensive income 5-Year Compounding Annual Revenue Growth rate 34.6% 5.00% increase would increase fair value by $2,138,810 and a 5.00% decrease would decrease fair value by $2,118,203 Discount rate 13.73% Terminal growth rate 2.0% 1.00% increase would decrease fair value by $773,203 and a 1.00% decrease would increase fair value by $926,566 1.00% increase would increase fair value by $577,704 and a 1.00% decrease would decrease fair value by $486,948 (d) Fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value The carrying value of trade receivables and trade payables approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of the instruments and low credit risk. 4.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of Ryder Capital Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: i. ii. giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the Directors of the Company, would be on the same terms if given to the Directors as at the time of this auditor’s report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

This caused us to qualify our audit opinion on the 30 June 2019 financial report as we were unable to satisfy ourselves by alternative means concerning the carrying value of the Company’s investment in Updater Inc. as at that year end. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key audit matter How our audit addressed the matter Existence and Valuation of Financial Instruments Refer to Note 3: Fair Value Measurement and Note 7: Investments We focused our audit effort on the valuation and existence of the Company’s financial assets as they represent the most significant driver of the Company’s Net Tangible Assets and Total Comprehensive Income. Our procedures included, amongst others: ▪ Obtaining an understanding of the investment management process and controls; ▪ Reviewing and evaluating the independent audit report on internal controls (ASAE 3402 Assurance Reports on Controls at a Service Organisation) for the period 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020 for the Custodian; ▪ Obtaining a confirmation of the investment holdings directly from the Custodian; ▪ Recalculating and assessing the Company’s valuation of individual investment holdings to independent pricing sources for Level 1 investments and for level 3 investments where there was no observable market data, obtaining and assessing other relevant valuation data; ▪ Evaluating the accounting treatment of revaluations of financial assets for current/deferred tax and unrealised gains or losses; and ▪ Assessing the adequacy of disclosures in the financial statements. The majority of the Company’s investments are considered to be non-complex in nature with fair value based on readily observable data from the ASX or other observable markets. Consequently, these investments are classified under Australian Accounting Standards as either “level 1” (i.e. where the valuation is based on quoted prices in the market) and “level 3” (i.e. where inputs are unobservable). 44 Pitcher Partners is an association of independent firms.

Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Independent Auditor's Audit Report to the Members Independent Auditor’s Report To the Members of Ryder Capital Limited ABN 74 606 695 854 Key audit matter How our audit addressed the matter Accuracy and Existence of Management and Performance Fees Refer to Note 8: Payables and Note 13: Related party transactions We focused our audit effort on the accuracy, completeness and existence of management and performance fees as they are significant expenses of the Company and their calculation requires adjustments and key inputs. Adjustments include company dividends, tax payments, capital raisings, capital reductions and other relevant expenses. Key inputs include portfolio movements, index benchmarking and applying the correct set percentage in accordance with the Investment Management Agreement between the Company and the Investment Manager. In addition, to their quantum, as these transactions are made with related parties, there are additional inherent risks associated with these transactions, including the potential for these transactions to be made on terms and conditions more favourable than if they had been with an independent third-party. Our procedures included, amongst others: ▪ Obtaining an understanding of and evaluating the processes and controls for calculating the management and performance fees; ▪ Making enquiries with the Investment Manager and Those Charged With Governance with respect to any significant events during the period and associated adjustments made as a result, in addition to reviewing ASX announcements; ▪ Testing of adjustments such as company dividends, tax payments, capital raisings, capital reductions as well as any other relevant expenses used in the calculation of management and performance fees; ▪ Testing key inputs used in the calculation of management and performance fees and recalculation in accordance with our understanding of the Investment Management Agreement; and ▪ Assessing the adequacy of disclosures made in the financial statements. Other Information The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 45 Pitcher Partners is an association of independent firms. ABN 17 795 780 962.

In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Directors. • Conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 46 Pitcher Partners is an association of independent firms.

Ryder Capital Limited Annual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2020 Independent Auditor's Audit Report to the Members Independent Auditor’s Report To the Members of Ryder Capital Limited ABN 74 606 695 854 We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on the Remuneration Report Opinion on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 14 to 16 of the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2020. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Ryder Capital Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2020, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Responsibilities The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
