Annual Report
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Chairman’s Letter to Shareholders
It is pleasing to see the share price discount to NTA narrow. With
continued good performance, a strong distributable profits reserve
supporting future dividend growth and the prospective exercise of
the Secondary Options (RYDOA) in December 2021, there is good
reason to expect this discount to narrow further over time.
Despite solid operational performance together with strategic
progress towards a listing, the value of the unlisted investment in
Updater Inc. (Updater) has been maintained at the same valuation
as last year. Your Investment Manager, together with Directors have
formed a view that the value of Updater remains fairly reflected in
the Company’s accounts.
Ryder enters FY22 having made a strong start in July +2.62% with
a Portfolio of investments that are well positioned to perform in
what is likely to be a more challenging investment environment.
As at 31 July 2021, cash and equivalents are currently at 14.9% and
with the addition of new capital via the exercise of RYDOA options
over the coming months, the Investment Manager has substantial
flexibility to capitalise on opportunities as they arise.
Following strong investment performance, large realised capital
gains flowing through to the profits reserve, and a positive start
to FY22, the Board declared a $0.04 fully franked final dividend
bringing the full year FY21 dividend to $0.07 per share fully franked,
an increase of 40% from FY20.
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on 23 November
2021 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
Dear fellow Shareholders,
In keeping with previous years, I would like to take the opportunity
to remind Shareholders what we are setting out to achieve.
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 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 during times of heightened
uncertainty and volatility.
Ryder Capital Limited (Ryder or Company) has had another
successful year, its fifth full financial year since listing in September
2015. Portfolio performance was strong both nominally and
relatively. Total comprehensive income after tax increased 202% by
$15,538,076 to $23,215,635. Gross portfolio performance of 43.4%
materially exceeded the Company’s performance benchmark.
During the year, the Investment Manager sold several long-term
Portfolio investments on valuation grounds and realised material
gains, reflected in the Company’s capital profits reserve increasing
82% by $13,824,125 to $30,768,597, which when added to the
Company’s profit reserve of $105,462, takes total distributable
profits to $30,874,059, an increase of 64% and equivalent to
45.7 cents per share. This increase is net of $3,831,417 in dividends
paid during the period and excludes $20,790,041 of net unrealised
gains in the Portfolio.
Dividends paid during the year totalled $0.06 fully franked, an
increase of $0.01 or +20% on the prior year. With approximately
45.7 cents per share of available distributable profits at 30 June
2021, the Company is in a strong position to continue to pay steady
to increasing fully franked dividends over time.
At 30 June 2021 approximately 86.33% of the Company’s capital
was deployed in equities and 13.67% held in cash, term deposits
or other liquid investments.
When reviewing the Company’s investment performance for
FY21 we focus on measuring the Company’s pre-tax undiluted
NTA period to period, which once adjusted for tax payments and
dividends resulted in a gain of 33.72%. 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.
The Company’s share price increased from $1.325 to $1.770 during
the year. When taking into account $0.06 in fully franked dividends
paid during the year, the share price return was 38.11% for FY21
compared to the undiluted pre-tax NTA return of 33.72% reflecting
a narrowing of the discount to fully diluted NTA from approximately
17% to 4% - noting this analysis excludes the tax benefits of
franking credits received.
2
Investment Manager’s Report
Gross portfolio performance for the year to 30 June 2021 (FY21) was 43.36%. This return was achieved whilst holding an average cash
balance though the year of approximately 12.94% and an average exposure to an unchanged carrying value in the unlisted investment
Updater Inc. of 7.55%. 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.
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) level adjusted for any dividends or other
distributions made by the Company during the reporting period.
Set out in the table below is the Company’s gross portfolio performance and pre-tax undiluted net tangible asset (NTA) performance(1)
to 30 June 2021 which take into account the historical pre-tax NTA dilution caused by the exercise of 26.7m RYDO options, 8.9m RYDOA
options and net of capital reductions as a result of the Company’s share buyback.

Ryder Capital LimitedAnnual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2021Investment Manager’s Report (Continued)
The Portfolio at 30 June 2021 held meaningful exposures to the materials, consumer discretionary and healthcare sectors. The Investment
Manager continues to remain sector agnostic while adjusting Portfolio composition as a function of its assessment of individual Portfolio
holding’s intrinsic value on an absolute basis.

Portfolio Performance
Gross portfolio performance for the period of 43.36% materially exceeded the performance hurdle and that of all other Australian equity
market indices, despite a high allocation to cash.
The Portfolio was well positioned being relatively well invested throughout the year as equity markets rebounded strongly from their lows
of March 2020 with the ASX All Ordinaries returning +26.4%, its best return since 1987. This result was achieved despite the ongoing
impacts of COVID-19 on corporate profits and the uncertain timing of vaccine efficacy which would enable a return to a normal way of life
and an improved economic outlook.
Strong gains in our long held positions of BCI Minerals Limited, SRG Global Limited and a new position in Janison Education Limited were
partially offset by mark to market losses in Adore Beauty Group Limited, Bill Identity Limited and Macmahon Holdings Limited.
Despite strong operational performance and progress towards a listing on the NASDAQ there was no change in the underlying USD
carrying value per share for our investment in Updater Inc.

Outside of the above top three contributors, the Portfolio benefitted from a number of additional strong performances including from
Betmakers Technology Group Limited where after over five years of ownership and several challenging periods, management stood up a
plan that captured investors’ attention and was followed by a stellar share price performance resulting in the exit of all of our holding and a
$5.1m profit for the Portfolio. 3P Learning Limited (3PL) was subject to a takeover in August 2020 at $1.35 per share (+70% premium over
our entry cost within six months). Whilst we supported the privatisation proposal at $1.35 per share, 3PL’s largest shareholder proposed an
alternate plan to merge 3PL with private company Blake eLearning Pty Ltd. With the merger completed, 3PL is now a larger, more
diversified global e-learning business. Each of NextDC Limited (NXT), Veem Limited (VEE) and Fenix Resources Limited (FEX) all made
noteworthy contributions due to strong share price appreciation resulting in a full exit from NXT and partial sales of FEX and VEE.

Ryder Capital LimitedAnnual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2021Investment Manager’s Report (Continued)
Mark to market losses in Macmahon Holdings Limited were driven by a de-rating across the mining services sector together with a
near term growth phase after which the company is expected to demonstrate meaningful free cash flow supporting our investment
thesis. Losses in Adore Beauty Group Limited (ABY) reflect an insufficient discount to intrinsic value at the time of entry compounded by
unfortunate timing as the online retail sector and COVID-19 beneficiaries experienced a de-rating post our initial investment. We consider
ABY to be a high quality business that presents an attractive long term value opportunity. Bill Identity Limited has not been able to deliver
the growth in revenue expected after significant wins earlier in the financial year compounded by delays to further material contract
wins. In addition to the top 3 detractors, the investment in Tubi Limited (~0.82% of exposure) has been very disappointing and remains
suspended from the ASX.
For FY21 the Portfolio generated $49,054,758 (+74% from FY20) of capital gains (realised and unrealised) which were offset by capital
losses (realised and unrealised) of $9,410,310 (-37% from FY20) resulting in a net capital gain before interest and dividend income of
$39,644,448 (+297% from FY20) for the year.
FY21 dividend income received was $1,762,646 fully franked while interest income received on term deposits and cash was $36,105.
At 30 June 2021, approximately 86% of the Company’s capital was deployed in equities with approximately 14% held in cash, term deposits
and net receivables.
Portfolio Activity
During the year we exited our long held investment in NextDC Limited and Betmakers Technology Group Limited on valuation grounds.
Other positions exited included Fineos Corp Holdings PLC-CDI, Humm Group Limited and Terragen Holdings Limited.
We added exposure to two long term core holdings being SRG Global Limited and BCI Minerals Limited due to increased conviction. New
core positions were initiated in Janison Education Group Limited and Vita Group Limited. A smaller new position of Adore Beauty Group
Limited was added via and post the IPO.
Portfolio Strike Rate
Shareholders will recall our interest in presenting our Strike Rate analysis. Consistent with the analysis presented last year, and given
the Portfolio has now completed its fifth full financial year, the measures set our below are based only on realised profits and losses
since inception.

Referring to the analysis above, the Portfolio segment identifies the Portfolio’s gross realised profits since inception to 30 June 2021 of
$60,363,941 compared to the Portfolio’s gross realised losses since inception of ($9,687,078). The net of these results is a net realised
Portfolio profit since inception of $50,676,862.
Observing the above, we note that:
1. the net realised Portfolio profit of $50,676,862 is 83.95% of the gross realised Portfolio profit of $60,363,941, that is we retained
~83.95% of gains, or thinking of it as a decision ratio, our poor decisions eroded our successful decisions by approximately 16.05%;
and
2. that total profits divided by total losses for the period (since inception to 30 June 2021) is 6.23x, indicating that for every $6.23 profit
made, $1.00 was lost.
Our ability to generate an improved strike rate is pleasing. The FY21 strike rate increased to $6.23, up from $4.11 in FY20.

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. It is important to note the return
measures used for Ryder and the domestic managers are not directly comparable to the indices in this case as while they are before
provided tax, they are after the payment of realised tax which creates an unfair drag on Ryder in comparison to the ASX market indices.
However this chart is still useful to assess the quality of the relative performance. The ideal position is towards the top left corner with the
highest returns and lowest level of risk. Over the long term, Ryder has outperformed the index and other domestic managers, generating
materially higher returns for a similar level of a risk.

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 42 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 LICs based on strategy, size and past performance

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:

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.

Further to the above, we have also taken the opportunity to illustrate how Ryder has performed on a pre-tax undiluted basis versus its
peers (43 other ASX Listed Investment Companies (LIC) from the Bell Potter Research and Morningstar universe). 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 somewhat 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 are instructive when reviewing absolute and
comparative performance over time.

1. Annualised returns are calculated during the period of 30 Sep 2015 to 30 June 2021 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. 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 LICs based on strategy, size and past performance
3. Sharpe ratio is calculated as excess annualised return above the risk free rate (RBA Cash rate) divided by standard deviation of monthly returns (annualised) for the period of 30 Sep 2015 to 30 June 2021
4. Sortino ratio is calculated as excess annualised return above the risk free rate (RBA Cash rate) divided by downside deviation of monthly returns (annualised), using a benchmark of the risk free rate (RBA
Cash rate) for the period of 30 Sep 2015 to 30 June 2021
Ryder has outperformed both absolutely and relatively on all measures.

Investment Manager’s Report (Continued)
Outlook
With investor exuberance finding its way into almost any and every asset on the planet, it is hard not to be concerned as to what may
lie ahead for us as investors. We should be optimistic about the future as vaccines are proving efficacious, saving lives and assisting in
the re-opening of economies as we gradually make our way back to a new but somewhat altered way of life. However, at some point the
emergency fiscal and monetary support mechanisms that have provided financial safety for many (and excessive wealth for a few) will
be wound back, timed crudely to coincide with the global economy’s ability to pick up the slack. The timing will not be perfect and the
transfer bumpy which will likely surface as asset price volatility and consequently a more difficult period for investors to navigate. To be
clear, we are not outright bearish, just increasingly cautious and aware that our most recent experience of strong returns is unlikely to
continue and asset price volatility will return sooner or later. Using a well known maxim from Warren Buffett the tide may soon turn and
expose those that have been swimming naked, knowingly or otherwise.
Timing can be everything but it can also create relative risk and underperformance trying to predict too precisely when an event will
unfold. We do not profess to have the ability to call market tops, bottoms or other key macro events. However, we can actively position
the Portfolio and its construct to reflect periods in markets where we feel future performance is uncertain. Currently, the odds of future
success through a reliance on the continuation of strong market momentum are low and falling. With this in mind, we are selectively
increasing the Portfolio’s cash exposure, lifting conviction thresholds and lowering risk positions. Combined with an anticipated injection
of cash over the coming months as Ryder RYDOA options are exercised, the Portfolio is well positioned for volatility and to take advantage
of resulting opportunities.

Directors’ Report (Continued)
Review of Operations
Portfolio performance was strong both nominally and relatively. Total comprehensive income after tax increased 202% by $15,538,076
to $23,215,635. Gross Portfolio performance of 43.4%, comfortably exceeded the Company’s performance benchmark resulting in a
performance fee payable to the Investment Manager of $7,040,139.
The Company’s opening Net Asset Value (NAV) on 30 June 2020 was $96,245,789 and the closing NAV on 30 June 2021 was $130,891,114
reflecting an increase in net assets of $34,645,325.
During the year, the Company did not buy back any shares. The Company will continue to buy back shares where it is accretive, balanced
against the benefits of holding cash for generating further performance and growth in the Company’s NTA. Net Tangible Assets (NTA) per
share before tax increased from 163.81 cents per share to 193.56 cents per share during the reporting period. Noting this increase was after
the payment of 6.0 cents per share in fully franked dividends and the payment of realised tax equivalent to 10.5 cents per share outlined in
the waterfall chart below.

In the period, the Investment Manager sold several long-term Portfolio investments on valuation grounds and realised material gains
which are reflected in the Company’s capital profits reserve increasing 82% by $13,824,125 to $30,768,597, which when added to the
Company’s profit reserve of $105,462 takes total distributable profits to $30,874,059, an increase of 64% and equivalent to $0.457 per share.
This increase is net of $3,831,417 in dividends paid during the period and excludes $20,790,041 of net unrealised gains in the Portfolio.

The Investment Manager conducted a detailed review of the valuation of Updater Inc. (Updater) as of 30 June 2021. Directors are satisfied
that Updater’s business plan, operational progress and strategic initiative to list on the NASDAQ are sound. Updater continues to be
held as a US Dollar equity asset with no changes to carrying value and is marked to market in line with currency fluctuations. To date the
Investment Manager has not hedged any of the US dollar Updater exposure.
COVID-19 continues to present 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 continues to be actively managed to reduce risk while taking advantage of opportunities as they arise during
this period. Ryder has taken steps to ensure that the Investment Manager is able to continue operations without interruption and with all
employees having the facilities to work from home if required.
The Company is cognisant of the ultra low interest rates on deposits of the Company’s cash and near cash asset reserves coupled
with investee companies prudently managing their own capital requirements balanced against dividend distributions. Ryder is well
positioned against dividend payment fluctuations as the Portfolio’s primary objective is long term capital growth with income generation
as a secondary objective. The Company’s dividend payments for the year increased from 5.0 cents fully franked in FY20 to 7.0 cents fully
franked in FY21. The Board anticipates that given its strong profit reserves, shareholder dividends should be well insulated in the short to
medium term.

Ryder Capital LimitedAnnual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2021Notes to the Financial Statements
1. 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 2021, and were authorised for issue by the Directors on 13
August 2021.
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 (Cth). 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 options are included under this classification. The Company designates any derivatives
as cash flow 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 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.

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 to determine the expected
credit losses. 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 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 exclusive 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.
26
Ryder Capital LimitedAnnual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2021Notes 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, 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 balance date 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.
27
Ryder Capital LimitedAnnual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2021Notes 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, the Board 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) of 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 2020 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 2021,
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 (unless otherwise 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 to mid 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 foreign currency
risk and other 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 2021 is 0.27% (2020: 1.26%).
Receivables
The majority of the Company’s receivables arise from interest and dividends yet to be received.
None of these assets exposed to credit risk are overdue or considered to be impaired.
28
Ryder Capital LimitedAnnual ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2021Notes 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.

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 minimum 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 31.
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.

(ii) Other price risk
Other price risk is the risk that fair value of equities decreases as a result of changes in market prices, whether those changes are
caused by factors specific to the individual stock or factors affecting the broader market. 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 currency 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.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (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 currency 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.

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
- Derivative financial instruments
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.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (CONTINUED)

Updater Inc. (Updater) an unlisted Delaware incorporated company is carried at a value of $24.875 per Common Stock. This is the
equivalent value of $0.995 per Chess Depositary Interest (CDI) which was the last traded ASX price (8 October 2018) for Updater CDIs
prior to the delisting and stock consolidation at a ratio of 25:1 (CDI to Common Stock). This value compares to the last transacted price of
$1.25 per CDI ($31.25 Common Stock equivalent) relating to the Updater buyback which was completed on 16 October 2018. The absence
of actual market transactions of Updater Inc. since it was last traded in October 2018 has required the fair value be determined using an
income approach converting future cash flows and expenses to a single current amount (i.e. a Discounted Cash Flow). The Company
notes that CDIs and CDI pricing are no longer relevant and as such all future references to Updater will be to its Common Stock.
(ii) Valuation processes
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.
Changes in allocation to or from level 3 are analysed at the end of each reporting period.
(d) 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 2021 are shown below:

Sensitivity
5.00% increase would increase fair
value by $4,067,199 and a 5.00%
decrease would decrease fair value by
$4,034,526
1.00% increase would decrease
fair value by $1,168,788 and a 1.00%
decrease would increase fair value by
$1,401,845
1.00% increase would increase
fair value by $925,683 and a 1.00%
decrease would decrease fair value by
$780,268
(e) 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.

8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the normal course of business the Company enters into transactions in various derivative financial instruments which have certain risks.
A derivative is a financial instrument or other contract which is settled at a future date and whose value changes in response to the change
in a specified interest rate, financial instrument price, commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of prices or rates, credit rating or
credit index or other variable.
Derivative financial instruments require no initial net investment or an initial net investment that is smaller than would be required for other
types of contracts that would be expected to have a similar response to changes in market factors.
Derivative transactions include a wide assortment of instruments, such as forwards, futures and options. Derivatives are considered to
be part of the investment process. The use of derivatives is an essential part of the Company’s Portfolio management. Derivatives are not
managed in isolation. Consequently, the use of derivatives is multifaceted and includes:
- hedging to protect an asset or liability of the Company against a fluctuation in market values or to reduce volatility;
- a substitution for trading of physical securities; and
- adjusting asset exposures within the parameters set in the investment strategy, and adjusting the duration of fixed interest portfolios or
the weighted average maturity of cash portfolios.
The Company holds the following derivative instrument:
Options
An option is a contractual arrangement under which the seller (writer) grants the purchaser (holder) the right, but not the obligation, either
to buy (a call option) or sell (a put option) at or by a set date or during a set period, a specific amount of securities or a financial instrument
at a predetermined price. The seller receives a premium from the purchaser in consideration for the assumption of future securities price
risk. Options held by the Company are exchange-traded. The Portfolio is exposed to credit risk on purchased options to the extent of their
carrying amount, which is their fair value. Options are settled on a gross basis.
The Company’s derivative financial instruments at 30 June 2021 are detailed below.
