CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Outlook

As I am writing this, we are surrounded by changing and 
challenging times as governments and communities work 
towards resolving the economic, personal and financial 
hardship that most of us are experiencing as a result of the 
response to the COVID-19 outbreak. Our number one priority 
at Shriro is to ensure the health and wellbeing of our staff 
and as a result the Board and Management support the 
Governments of Australia and New Zealand in their efforts 
to protect the community from the spread of the virus. 
Whilst our New Zealand business is in total lockdown, the 
vast majority of the management and staff of our Australian 
operations are working diligently from home. Everyone 
is making personal and financial sacrifices to ensure the 
financial health and sustainability of the company.

Whilst times may seem a little uncertain, the one thing 
that we can be certain of is future change. Change can be 
confusing and sometimes confronting but it also brings 
opportunity.

On behalf of the Board I’d like to extend my thanks to 
our CEO, Tim, the management and staff for their efforts 
and commitment throughout the year, their passion for 
growing the Company and their clarity of thought, care and 
compassion for each other in how they have managed the 
recent changes.

Finally, on behalf of the Board, I would like to thank you, our 
shareholders, for your continued support and I wish you 
health and stability during the journey to economic recovery.

STEPHEN HEATH
Chairman

2019 was as a year that can best be summarised as one 
of mixed financial results and the building of a platform for 
future productivity improvement and strategic review.

Group Sales Revenue declined 5% to $172.1 million and 
Net Profit after Tax declined 11% to $6.5 million over the 
prior year. Net Profit Before Tax declined 1.1% to 9.4 million. 
However, improved working capital management delivered 
$23.5 million of operating cash flow, an improvement of 
$12 million, providing the company with a healthy Balance 
Sheet with no debt and $6 million of cash on hand. 

Revenue

Despite many of our brands performing well, particularly 
in New Zealand, the revenue decline in the year emanated 
largely from the Australian Appliance Division which was 
impacted by challenges in managing the distribution channel 
in the down cycle of the property development market 
and slower than expected BBQ sales associated with the 
expansion into the US market.

Operating Margins

Despite Net Profit before Tax declining 1.1%, our CEO, Tim 
Hargreaves, and his management team have been able to 
reduce operating costs to ensure the Net Profit before Tax 
margin of 5.4%, slightly improved over the prior year result of 
5.2%.

Dividends

On 27 February 2020, the Directors declared a fully franked 
final dividend of 3 cents per share, which was paid on the 
30th of March 2020. Combined with the interim dividend 
of 3 cents per share, which was also fully franked, the 
total dividend for 2019 of 6 cents per share, represents a 
payout ratio of approximately 87.8%, which is 1.5% higher 
than the previous year. The Company maintains sufficient 
financial resources to implement planned initiatives in the 
current year.

The Board

Subsequent to the year end, our former Chairman, John 
Ingram, retired. Sadly, fellow Director and Chair of Audit and 
Risk, Greg Laurie, passed away just prior to his intended 
retirement. Both gentlemen contributed significantly to 
the Company during their stewardship. Cheryl Hayman 
and myself joined the Board late in 2019 to facilitate the 
succession planning process and the Board intends to recruit 
a further Non Executive Director who can fulfil the role of 
Chair of Audit and Risk.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019CEO REPORT

5

2019, being my second year as CEO, has been a combination 
of focused effort in navigating some domestic market 
challenges, reviewing and assessing the effectiveness of our 
U.S expansion strategy, and the execution of our productivity 
improvement plans, primarily targeting operational costs 
and working capital, to ensure we have operational resource 
alignment in a challenging market going forward. 

At the group level, revenue declined 5.0%, however through 
our productivity improvement plans, operating expenses have 
been managed well, decreasing by 5.6%. As a result, the Net 
Profit Before Tax decreased 1.1% to $9.4 million. Underlying 
Net profit After Tax decreased 5.8% to $6.5 million. Operating 
cash flow improved to $23.5 million through working capital 
improvements and our Balance Sheet closed the year out with 
no debt and $6 million of cash on hand. 

The Australian business recorded a revenue decline of 5.1% 
to $127.2 million. At a divisional level, G-Shock watches had 
a record year whilst musical instruments and BBQ’s both 
recorded growth over the prior year. However, the declines in 
appliances and cooling (to a lesser extent), were the primary 
reason for the overall decline. Despite the revenue decline, 
EBITDA improved 10.3% to $15.3 million as a result of the 
operational cost improvements made. 

The New Zealand business recorded revenue growth of 3% to 
$41.5 million which was underpinned by growth in Robinhood 
Appliances, G-Shock watches and Pioneer DJ equipment. The 
disproportionate growth of 10.7% in EBITDA to $4.3 million 
was driven by an improved cost structure.

The Export division recorded a revenue decline of 49.7% to 
$3.4 million and recorded an EBITDA loss of $2.9 million. 
The decline in revenue was caused by a lower than expected 
rate of sale post the launch of the brand in the USA. The 
rate of sale was impacted by the unforeseen 25% tariff 
imposed by the US government resulting in retail price point 
pressure against locally manufactured US brands. The pricing 
and subsequent margin and distribution challenges have 
encouraged us to rethink our operating model from the original 
third party distribution agreement to a new wholly owned 
subsidiary, at least until we can achieve our planned market 
penetration and growth aspirations over the next three years. 

On a more positive note we have been successful in 
renegotiating our royalty agreement with the entities and 
management representing Heston Blumenthal, which will 
result in ongoing savings of $1 million per year. 

Whilst Shriro is committed to its long term strategy of 
international expansion and growth, the immediate focus 
is on managing the short term impact of the Government 
responses and economic impact of COVID-19 in each of the 
markets in which we trade and to ensure the safety and health 
of our staff and customers.

Our Business Continuity Plans vary from country to country 
to comply with the new laws and health recommendations 
imposed on those markets by their respective governments. 
These laws and recommendations have lead to either full or 
partial operational shutdowns in Shriro’s businesses and that of 
its distribution and retail customers. As a result, we have moved 
quickly to reduce operational costs to compensate for the short 
term revenue impact the government regulations will have on 
the business. Some of these initiatives involve personal and 
financial sacrifices made by our employees and the teamwork, 
tenacity, work ethic and resolve of the senior leadership team 
and staff during this time of uncertainty is humbling.

Both New Zealand and the State of California (USA) have 
been impacted by government enforced shutdowns of non-
essential businesses which impacts a significant portion of 
the group’s revenue and growth aspirations in the short term. 
All variable costs have been reduced accordingly, negotiations 
have been entered into with landlords and unfortunately our 
staff have been impacted by short term stand downs.  

Whilst Australia has avoided a government enforced shutdown 
of retail businesses, the directive to the community to stay at 
home unless absolutely necessary has dramatically impacted 
retail foot traffic which has in turn led to retailers electing 
to close their doors for the foreseeable future. The retail 
shutdowns will impact Shriro’s sales particularly in discretionary 
products such as G-Shock watches. We are hopeful that the 
Government stimulus packages will soften the economic 
impact and help business to return to relative normality soon. 

In closing and on a personal note, I would like to thank John 
Ingram for his leadership of the company during his tenure as 
Chairman, and to pass on my sympathies to the family of our 
fellow director Greg Laurie on his recent passing. My deepest 
thanks go to all staff for their sacrifice for the good of the 
Company and their fellow employees. I also wish to thank the 
entire Board for their support and extend a warm welcome 
to the new Board members. Finally I wish to thank you, our 
shareholders for your continued support.

Shriro Holdings Limited today announced its results for the year ended 31 December 2019. Net Profit after Tax for the year 
ended 31 December 2019 decreased 11% to $6.5 million. NPBT decreased 1.1% in to $9.4 million, compared with the previous 
year, of $9.5 million.

Revenue performance by Division was mixed, although the Australian Appliance Division has suffered the most as a result of 
the subdued housing development cycle and increased market competition in the sector.

2019 was a year of consolidation by reducing the company’s operating cost structure to ensure sustainable EBITDA margins 
on the Company’s current lower revenue run-rate. Operating expenses reduced on the prior year by 5.6%. A reduction in 
excess showroom capacity, improved productivity in the staff structure and overhead have been the major contributors to the 
productivity improvements. Whilst cost improvements have been achieved in the operating model, management will continue 
to invest strategically to ensure long-term success of the Brands. 

Gross Margin for the year was 39.1%, which was slightly lower than the previous year, despite challenging currency 
headwinds. Currency hedging, improved product ranging and sourcing as well as market pricing increases have contributed to 
offset the currency pressure.

Margin performance for the year was impacted by a pre-tax $1.8 million provision for inventory obsolescence and costs 
relating to sales to clear superseded Omega products. This was undertaken to ensure a smooth transition to new models due 
for release in the second quarter of 2020. 

The new lease standard AASB16 reduced the current years NPAT by $456K (prior year reduced the profit by $372K), due 
to a timing difference. Shriro’s NPBT will benefit from the new standard in future years as the principal portion of the lease 
repayments will increase and the interest and depreciation portion will reduce over the term of the leases. There will be no 
impact on net cash flows as the underlying lease agreements have not changed.

The Company maintained its strong balance sheet and sound cash flows despite the lower profit and the payment of a total 
of 7.0 cents per share dividend in the financial year. Shriro has no Net Debt, and as at 31 December 2019 had $6 million cash 
on hand.

The Directors have declared a fully franked final dividend of 3.0 cents per share, with a record date of 9th March 2020 and 
payable on 30th March 2020. This is in line with the comparative full year dividend. Shriro is able to hold its dividend due to its 
strong balance sheet.

Outlook

With the core Casio business and New Zealand territory performing well, a more productive organisational structure, new 
terms agreed with Heston Blumenthal and regional growth opportunity with ‘Everdure by Heston Blumenthal’, management 
are encouraged by the prospects for the year ahead in those business segments. 

Macro risks include the property development cycle which impacts the demands for products in the Appliance Division and 
short term supply chain disruption as a result of the Coronavirus. 

Notwithstanding the slowness of the property development market, management have restructured the architect/developer 
service model in an effort to improve market share in a flat market. 

The outcome of the Coronavirus is still developing and at this point the impact to the supply chain and product sourcing is 
yet to be fully established. Management will provide a further market update if it establishes that business operations will be 
materially impacted. 

Finally, management and the Board will continue to evaluate earnings accretive acquisition opportunities.

Employees

During this financial year, the number of employees ranged between 239 and 258 and was 239 at year end. (2018: 255).

The Directors wish to recognise the contribution made by all employees during the year.

Earnings per share

The basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of shares. This shows the basic 
earnings per share at 6.8 cents (2018: 7.7 cents) and diluted earnings per share at 6.7 cents (2018: 7.6 cents).

DIVIDEND
On 5th April 2019, the Group paid the 2018 financial year end dividend of 3.0 cents per share fully franked.

On 16th September 2019, the Group paid an interim dividend for the half year ended 30 June 2019 of 4.0 cents per share fully 
franked.

On 27th February 2020 the Directors declared a final dividend of 3.0 cents per share fully franked with an ex-dividend date of 
the 8th March 2020, record date of the 9th March 2020 and payable on 30th March 2020.

The remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) comprise base pay, at-risk short term 
bonus (STI) and participation in the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP). Details of each executive’s remuneration is 
set out below.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019DIRECTORS’ REPORT 
 
 
 
 
25

Chief	Executive	Officer	(CEO)	and	Chief	Financial	Officer	(CFO)

The CEO and CFO are remunerated on a salary package basis which is a component of a formal employment contract. 
The salary package is considered to be appropriate for the experience and expertise needed for the position and is 
comparable to other similar sized companies and business units of larger companies. The salary package contains a fixed 
component and a short term incentive (STI) component. The STI is determined by the Board annually, based on performance 
against a range of targets. The CEO and CFO are also participants in the Company’s long term incentive plan (LTIP).

Short Term Incentive

A short term incentive (STI) forms a component of the remuneration of executive Directors and key management personnel in 
addition to their base remuneration. The STI for 2019 was structured on the following basis:

In 2019 Tim Hargreaves is entitled to an STI award equivalent to 60% of his total fixed annual employment cost ($360,000) for 
target performance or up to 120% of his total fixed annual employment cost ($720,000) for stretch performance, measured 
against the CY2019 financial year’s budgeted profit after tax. Shane Booth is entitled to an STI award equivalent to 40% of his 
total fixed annual employment cost ($156,000) for target performance or up to 80% of his total fixed annual employment cost 
($312,000) for stretch performance, measured against the CY2019 financial year’s budgeted profit after tax. 

If the Group’s profit after tax is between the STI target and the stretch target, Tim Hargreaves will be entitled to a cash STI 
reward of between 60% and 120% of his total fixed annual employment cost and Shane Booth will be entitled to a cash STI 
reward of between 40% and 80% of his total fixed annual employment cost, calculated on a straight line basis.

If the Group’s profit after tax is at least 95% of the STI target, Tim Hargreaves will be entitled to a cash STI reward equivalent 
to 30% of his total fixed annual employment cost ($180,000) and Shane Booth will be entitled to an STI award equivalent to 
20% of his total fixed annual employment cost ($78,000). 

In addition to the above Tim Hargreaves is entitled to a bonus of up to 10% of his fixed annual employment cost ($60,000) 
and Shane Booth is also entitled to a bonus of up to 10% of his fixed annual employment cost ($39,000) for the successful 
completion of the Strategic Plan for the Company (as assessed by and at the discretion of the Board).

STI targets are expected to be set by the Board for the 2020 year for CEO Tim Hargreaves and CFO Shane Booth. STI awards 
are expected to be paid in cash following the Board’s approval of the Company’s financial statements for the relevant year.

Long Term Incentive

A Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) has been implemented in accordance with Shriro’s Employee Share Scheme Rules. 
The LTIP allows participants to be issued with Performance Rights (Rights) which have associated performance hurdles that 
are tested at the end of three years from the effective issue date to determine vesting. Subsequent to vesting, each Right can 
be exercised and converted to an equivalent number of shares of the Company, or cash at the Board’s discretion. 

Tim Hargreaves has been issued with 415,225 Rights in respect of the 2019 year with an effective date of 1 January 2019 
(2018: 150,000; 2017: 44,427). Testing for achievement of the performance hurdle will occur following Board approval of the 
Company’s financial statements three years after the Rights effective issue date. On exercise the Board will decide whether 
to settle the exercised Rights in cash or via an on-market purchase of Shares. It may be expected that exercised Rights will 
generally be settled in Shares, however, if the exercise occurs following cessation of employment with the Group and when 
the market value of a Share is lower at the time of exercise than it was at the date of cessation of employment with the Group 
then the exercised Rights will be settled in cash, only. Where shares are to be allocated, this will be achieved by an on-market 
purchase of the relevant number of shares and will not be by way of an issue of new shares. The rights have been granted 
free of charge.

Shane Booth has been issued with 202,422 Rights in respect of the 2019 year (2018: 73,125; 2017: 87,698). Testing for 
achievement of the performance hurdle will occur following Board approval of the Company’s financial statements three 
years after the Rights effective issue date. It is expected that Shane Booth will be invited, at the Director’s discretion, to apply 
for Rights in respect of the 2020 financial year.

The performance hurdle relating to the Rights issued to both Tim Hargreaves and Shane Booth is for the compound annual 
growth rate (CAGR) of the Company’s earnings per share (EPS) to be no less than 5% for the three years for 50% of the 
Rights to vest (threshold performance) and 10% or higher for 100% of Rights to vest (target performance). EPS performance 
between 5% and 10% will result in a pro rata proportion of Rights to vest between 50% and 100%.

Relationship between Remuneration Policy and Group Performance

discretionary, and is closely related to and determined mainly by the current profit levels of the Group but can also include a 
component of non-financial targets.

Executive officers remuneration is further aligned with the long term Group performance via the long term incentive plan 
(LTIP) and the current shareholdings certain executives retain in the Group.

Cash Bonuses

Both Tim Hargreaves and Shane Booth achieved 8.8% of their 2019 structured short term incentives. Tim Hargreaves was 
granted $60,000 and Shane Booth was granted $39,000 in relation to the successful completion of the Strategic Plan for the 
Company.

Employee Long Term Incentive plan

The Company established the employee long term incentive plan (LTIP) to assist in the motivation, retention and reward of 
senior management. The Plan is designed to align the interests of employees and senior management with the interests of 
Shareholders by providing an opportunity for employees to receive an equity interest in the Company. From time to time the 
Board will approve invitations to certain executives and employees to participate in the LTIP on conditions and performance 
hurdles determined by the Board. 

The Plan Rules provide flexibility for the Company to grant performance rights, options and/or restricted shares, subject to the 
terms of individual offers. 

Performance rights have been granted to the CEO, CFO and other members of senior management of the Company in 
accordance with the rules of the employee long term incentive plan. It is expected that an invitation to apply for performance 
rights in respect of the 2020 year will be approved by the Board. 

Tim Hargreaves was granted 415,225 performance rights to be settled, at the Board’s discretion, either in cash or via an 
on-market purchase of the relevant number of shares and will not be by way of an issue of new shares (2018: 150,000). 
Shane Booth was granted 202,422 performance rights (2018: 73,125) under the LTIP during the financial year ended 
31 December 2019. 

No non-executive director received any shares in the current or previous years and no non-executive director can participate in 
the LTIP.

Shriro Holdings Limited has not issued any options.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019DIRECTORS’ REPORT29

The key terms of the awards under the employee long term incentive plan are summarised in the table below.

Performance 
conditions, 
performance period 
and vesting

Performance rights will vest subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions. 

The performance period for LTIP awards will generally be 3 years. The grants have a performance 
period ending on 31 December three years subsequent to the effective issue date. 

The grants of performance rights are subject to a performance condition (hurdle) based on the 
achievement of a target of 10% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of EPS over three years from 
the effective date of the performance review. 

The percentage of performance rights that vest, if any, will be determined by reference to the 
following vesting schedule, subject to any adjustments for abnormal or unusual profit items 
considered appropriate by the Board: 

Target CAGR of the Company’s EPS
over the three year period

% of performance rights that vest

Less than threshold performance (less than 5%)

Threshold performance (5%)

Nil

50%

Between threshold and target performance (5%-10%)

50-100% on a straight line pro rata

Target performance (10% or above)

100%

Any performance rights that remain unvested at the end of the performance period will 
lapse immediately.

The Board has chosen this LTIP structure, as it believes it provides an appropriate management 
incentive, it is within management’s achievable control, and is of a timespan relevant to the 
Company’s industry.

Testing of the EPS Hurdle will occur shortly after the end of the Performance Period and release of 
the Company’s full year audited results for the preceding financial year. The number of Rights that 
vest (if any) will be determined at that point. Any Rights that remain unvested will lapse immediately.

The performance rights do not carry dividends or voting rights prior to vesting.

The participant must not sell, transfer, encumber, hedge or otherwise deal with performance rights. 

The participant will be free to deal with any shares allocated on vesting of the performance rights, 
subject to the requirements of the Company’s policy for dealing in securities.

Restrictions on 
dealing

Cessation of 
employment

If the participant’s employment is terminated for cause or the participant resigns, unless the Board 
determines otherwise, any unvested performance rights will automatically lapse. 

Where the participant ceases employment in any other circumstances, unless the Board determines 
otherwise: 

•  a pro-rata portion of the performance rights (calculated by reference to the portion of the 

performance period that has elapsed up to the date of cessation) will remain on foot and will vest 
or lapse in due course, as though the participant had not ceased employment; and 

•  the remaining portion of the performance rights will automatically lapse.

Disclosure of other information regarding likely developments in the operations of the Group in future financial years and the 
expected results of those operations is likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group. Accordingly, this information 
has not been disclosed in this report. 

INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND AUDITORS
During the financial year, the Group paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring Directors of the Group, the Group 
secretary, and all executive officers of the Group and of any related body corporate against a liability incurred as such a 
director, secretary or executive officer to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance 
prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.

The Group has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified 
or agreed to indemnify an officer or auditor of the company or of any related body corporate against a liability incurred as 
such an officer or auditor. 

NON-AUDIT SERVICES
Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services in the prior year are outlined in note 6.2 to the 
financial statements.

The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the auditor (or by another person or firm on the 
auditor’s behalf) during the year is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the 
Corporations Act 2001.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019DIRECTORS’ REPORT31

The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 6.2 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor’s independence, based on advice received from the Audit Committee, for the following reasons:

•  all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of 

the auditor; and

•  none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 ‘Code of 

Ethics for Professional Accountants’ issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing 
or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the company, acting as 
advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards. 

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
The auditor’s independence declaration is included on page 15 of the annual report.

EXTENSION OF AUDIT ROTATION PERIOD
The Directors, via a company resolution, have granted approval to extend the tenure of Xenia Delaney as the lead Audit 
Partner for a sixth consecutive year to 31 December 2020.

The Board is satisfied that the extension will maintain the quality of the audit and not give rise to any conflicts of interest 
as extending the engagement period of the audit partner will provide transparency to the financial reporting process given 
the Board succession next financial year with the recent appointment of two new independent Directors. Changing the 
audit partner during the first full financial year of the new independent Board will impose an unreasonable burden on Shriro 
Holdings Limited and its Board of Directors as Xenia Delaney has extensive historical knowledge of the business having been 
Audit partner since the year Shriro Holdings Limited was listed on the ASX.

ROUNDING OFF OF AMOUNTS
The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financials/Directors’ Reports) 
Instrument 2016/191, dated 24 March 2016, and in accordance with that Corporations Instrument amounts in the directors’ 
report and the financial statements are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

This Directors’ report is signed in accordance with a resolution of Directors made pursuant to s298(2) of the 
Corporations Act 2001.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the members of
Shriro Holdings Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Shriro Holdings Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries
(the “Group”) which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December
2019, the consolidated statement of profit or loss, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and
other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated
statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a
summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001, including:

(i)

giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2019 and of
its financial performance for the year then ended; and

(ii)

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  Group  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 (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 in 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.

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  for  the  current  period.  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 the scope of our audit responded to the Key
Audit Matter

Provision for rebates

Our procedures included, but were not limited to:

As at 31 December 2019, the total value of
the Group’s provision for rebates is $6.8
million as disclosed in Notes 1.1 and 2.1.
Shriro has rebate agreements with certain
customers in line with industry practice.
The provision for volume and stretch
rebates has a direct impact on revenue
recognition.

Accounting for these rebates is complex,
requiring an understanding of the
contractual arrangements, and requiring
complete and accurate source data to
which the arrangements apply, including
consideration of the timing of recognition
and the presentation thereof.

of
management’s  rebate  policy  to  assess  if
they  are  in  accordance  with  the  relevant
accounting standards;

provision  to  test  the  accuracy  of  the
formula by reference to actual and forecast
sales volumes; and
Performing  a  retrospective  review  of  the
balance to assess the historical accuracy of
management’s estimation.

Provision for warranties

As at 31 December 2019 the provision for
warranties is $2.5 million as disclosed in
Note 2.5.

Significant judgement is involved in
determining the appropriate level for the
warranty provision. This is estimated by
management using a cost accrual approach
based on historical actual payment
experience, historical relationship to gross
sales, estimated time to failure and a
prediction period.

We also assessed the appropriateness of the
disclosures in Notes 1.1 and 2.1 to the financial
statements.
Our procedures included, but were not limited to:

·

·

·

·

contractual  obligations;
Testing on a sample basis the inputs in the
formula/model  used 
the
warranty provision to assess the accuracy
of the computation;
Challenging management’s policy to assess
if they are in accordance with the relevant
accounting standards and statutory and/or
contractual obligations;

Provision for inventory obsolescence

As at 31 December 2019 the provision for
inventory obsolescence is $3.1 million as
disclosed in Note 2.2.

Significant judgement is involved in
determining the appropriate level for the
provision for inventory obsolescence and
slow-moving stock. This is estimated by
reference to inventory ageing and
consideration of historical inventory losses,
recent sales experience and other factors
that effect inventory obsolescence.

·

·

Performing a sensitivity analysis by varying

provision.

We also assessed the appropriateness of the
disclosures in Note 2.5 to the financial
statements.
Our procedures included, but were not limited to:

·

·

·

·

Understanding  and  testing  key  controls
over  the  recording  of  the  provision  for

disclosures in Note 2.2 to the financial
statements.

Other Information

The  directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  the
Directors’  Report,  Corporate  Governance  Statement,  Appendix  4E  and  the  Additional  ASX
Information,  which  we  obtained  prior  to  the  date  of  this  auditor’s  report,  and  also  includes  the
following information which will be included in the Group’s annual report (but does not include the
financial report and our auditor’s report thereon): Chairman’s Report, CEO’s Report, Business at a
Glance, Business – Review – Kitchen appliances and Business Review – Consumer products, which
is expected to be made available to us after that date.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not and will 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
identified above 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 on the other information that we obtained prior
to the date of this auditor’s report, 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.

When  we  read  the  Chairman’s  Report, CEO’s  Report,  Business  at a Glance,  Business  –  Review  –
Kitchen appliances and Business Review – Consumer products, if we conclude that there is a material
misstatement  therein,  we  are  required  to  communicate  the  matter  to  the  directors  and  use  our
professional judgement to determine the appropriate action.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 201936

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of
the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group
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 Group or to
cease operations, or has 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 
intentional  omissions,
involve  collusion, 
fraud  may 
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

forgery, 

· 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 Group’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  Group’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 Group 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.

· Obtain  sufficient  appropriate  audit  evidence  regarding  the  financial  information  of  the
entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report.
We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group’s audit. We
remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

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.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT37

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 23 to 30 of the Directors’ Report for 
the year ended 31 December 2019.

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Shriro Holdings Limited, for the year ended 31 December 
2019, 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. Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in 
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.

Accounting policies

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer 
returns, rebates and other similar allowances.

Revenues and expenses are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part 
of an item of expense,

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control’ of the 
goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Revenue will be recognised 
at the point in time when control over the corresponding goods is transferred to the customer.

Rebates

Revenue from the sale of goods is recorded after deducting any variable consideration for future rebates payable in relation to 
each sale. 

1.2 Profit for the year

Profit before tax has been arrived at after charging the following expenses:

Depreciation of property, plant, equipment

Depreciation of right of use assets

1.3 Segment information
1.3.1 Establishment	of	new	primary	operating	segments

Following changes to the Group’s structure with the establishment of the Group’s second wholly-owned subsidiary Shriro 
USA, INC and in line with AASB 8 “Operating Segments” the Group’s operating segment reporting has been reviewed and 
redefined, providing the chief operating decision makers more relevant information to make decisions about resources to be 
allocated to each segment and assess its performance. 

Operating segments are reported in a manner which is consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating 
decision makers. The chief operating decision makers have been identified as the Board of Directors for the Group.

The internal reports reviewed by the Board, which are used to make strategic decisions, are separated into the Group’s 
primary operating segments:

•  Australia – ovens, cooktops, rangehoods, dishwashers, sinks, taps, ironing systems, laundry tubs, ducting solutions, 
watches, calculators, electronic musical instruments, projectors, point of sale terminals, barbeques, heaters, fans, air 
purifiers/ dehumidifiers,

•  New Zealand – ovens, cooktops, rangehoods, dishwashers, sinks, taps, ironing systems, laundry tubs, waste disposal, 
ducting solutions, watches, calculators, electronic musical instruments, projectors, point of sale terminals, barbeques, 
heaters, fans, air purifiers/ dehumidifiers, fashion, car audio, professional DJ, amplifiers and Hi Fi products and speakers.

•  Export markets – barbeques and accessories

The information regarding these segments is presented below. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the 
same as Group’s accounting policies.

1.3.3 Information about major customers

Included in kitchen appliances revenue from ordinary activities are revenues of approximately $21 million (2018: $24 million) 
which arose from sales to the Group’s largest customer. No other single customer contributed 10% or more to the Group’s 
revenue for both 2019 and 2018.

Reporting changes
Changes to reportable segments 

Following changes to the Group’s structure with the establishment of the Group’s second wholly-owned subsidiary Shriro 
USA,INC and in line with AASB 8 “Operating Segments”, the Group’s operating segment reporting has been reviewed and 
redefined, providing the chief operating decision makers more relevant information to make decisions about resources to 
be allocated to each segment and assess its performance.

The change to the Group’s structure aligned the Group’s strategy and focus on continual geographical expansion. 
The reporting change provides the chief operating decision makers more relevant information to make decisions about 
resources to be allocated to each segment and assess its performance.

Accounting policies 
Current Tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the period. Taxable profit differs from profit before tax as reported in 
the consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that 
are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is 
calculated using rates that have been enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial 
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. 

Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that 
taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of 
deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that 
sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and 
associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary 
difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets 
arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the 
extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary 
differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is 
settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of 
the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow 
from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its 
assets and liabilities.

Offsetting tax balances

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against 
current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to 
settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

The average credit period on sales of goods is 45 days. No interest is charged on trade receivables. With the implementation 
of the new standard AASB 9, impairment losses should be recognised using the expected credit loss (ECL) model. 
This involves a three-stage approach in which financial assets move through the three stages as their credit quality changes 
however a simplified approach is permitted for financial assets that don’t have a significant financing component, such as 
trade receivables. The Group has applied the simplified approach which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised 
from initial recognition of the receivables. The calculation of impairment losses under this approach impacts the allowance 
for doubtful debts, now termed the credit loss allowance.

A provision matrix is determined based on historic credit losses, adjusted for any material expected changes to the future 
credit risk. On this basis the credit loss allowance as at 31 December 2018 was determined as follows:

Sum of 0 - 30 days

The Group holds an active credit insurance policy which, as at the reporting date, provided coverage for 90% of debtors,

Accounting policies 

Receivables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.

A rebate accrual is maintained for rebates not yet paid to customers, and forms part of the trade and other receivables 
balance. Based on historical data and analysis the accrual is reviewed at the end of each reporting period.

Key estimates and judgments
Rebates provision

The provision for rebates requires a degree of estimation and judgment in relation to whether the customer will achieve the 
hurdles required to earn a rebate. The level of the provision is assessed by taking into account past rebates payment history 
and contractual arrangements.

The cost of inventories recognised as an expense during the year in respect of continuing operations was $104,818,000 
(2018: $109,702,000)

Stock aged over 3 years amount to 2.7% of the inventory balance.

Accounting policies 

Inventory on hand is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value using the weighted average cost method and 
includes all costs associated with its acquisition. Inventory in transit is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs 
necessary to make the sale.

Key estimates and judgments

In the preparation of the financial report the directors are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about 
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying 
assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. 

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies 
the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events 
is reported.

The provision for obsolescence of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgment. The level of the 
provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that 
affect inventory obsolescence.

Accounting policies 
Employee benefits 

i.  The provision for employee benefits represents annual leave and long service leave entitlements accrued. The discount rate 

adopted at 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018 is the High Quality Corporate Bond Rate.

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service 
leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits, are measured at their nominal values using the 
remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.

Liabilities recognised in respect of long term employee benefits are measured as the present value of the estimated future 
cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date. The discount 
rate adopted at 31 December 2019 is the High Quality Corporate Bond Rate.

Warranty

ii. The provision for warranty claims represents the present value of the Directors’ best estimate of the future sacrifice of 

economic benefits that will be required under the Group’s warranty program as outlined in the below accounting policies. 
The estimate has been made on the basis of historical warranty trends and other events affecting product quality 
discounted to present value with the exclusion of net margin on spares sold.

The Group sells goods or services to a client and provides a formal warranty or guarantee that any defects will be repaired 
or rectified and provides assurance that the product complies with agreed-upon specifications. A provision is recorded for 
the related liability to an amount of the expected costs to be incurred for repair and rectification. 

The Group provides warranties ranging from one to five years, with the majority being less than two years.

Make good

iii. The provision for make-good represents management’s best estimate of future cash outlays required to refit leased 

premises in line with the requirements of each operating lease agreement. 

Key estimates and judgments

In the preparation of the financial report the directors are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about 
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying 
assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. 

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies 
the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events 
is reported.

Warranty provision

In determining the level of provision required for warranties, the Group has made judgments in respect of the products, the 
number of customers who will actually use the warranty and how often, and the costs of fulfilling the conditions of the warranty. 
The provision is based on estimates made from historical warranty data associated with similar products and services.

2.6 Financial instruments
The Group has four significant categories of financial instruments which are described below together with the accounting 
policies and risk management processes which the Company utilises:

a. Cash and cash equivalents

The Group deposits its cash and cash equivalents with Australian, New Zealand and US banks. Funds can be deposited in 
cheque accounts and cash management accounts. On call cash accounts are the only allowable investment instruments 
authorised for use.

b. Debtors	and	credit	risk	management

The Group has a credit risk policy to protect against the risk of debtor default. The majority of the Group’s debtors are 
long term customers and are large Australian corporations where the credit risk is considered to be generally lower. 
New customers are assessed for credit risk using credit references and reports from credit agencies as necessary. 

The Group holds an active credit insurance policy which, as at the reporting date, provided coverage for 90% of debtors, 
including all debtors with a balance owing equal to or greater than $40,000. The maximum exposure under this policy is 
10% of the irrecoverable amount.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS55

c. Bank	guarantees	and	letters	of	credit	

The Group has a preference to provide bank guarantees to customers, and letters of credit to suppliers in lieu of 
cash retention. 

d. Foreign	currency	forward	contracts

The Group hedges its cash flows by using forward exchange contracts to minimise the impacts of currency movements. 
Derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts, which are used purely for hedging purposes, 
are measured and recognised at fair value and are included in level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy.

The Directors consider the fair value of the financial assets and financials liabilities to approximate their carrying amounts.

Loans and receivables

Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active 
market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective 
interest method, less any impairment. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-
term receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Financial risk management objectives

The company’s exposure to market risk is mainly arising from interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, operating expenditure 
risk and price risk (sales and margin).

Foreign currency risk management

The Group undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies; consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations 
arise. Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters utilising forward foreign exchange contracts. 

It is the policy of the Group to enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to cover specific foreign currency payments and 
receipts to 100% of the exposure generated. The Group also enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to manage the 
risk associated with anticipated purchase transactions out to 9 months with 80% of the expected exposure hedged.

Forward foreign exchange contracts

The Group’s exposure through foreign currency hedges at the reporting date was as follows:

Liquidity risk management

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity 
risk management framework for the management of the Company’s short, medium and long-term liquidity management 
requirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by continually monitoring and maintaining adequate banking facilities. 

Liquidity and interest risk tables

The following tables detail the Company’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities. The tables 
have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the 
Company can be required to receive or pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis has been determined based on exposure to interest rates for cash and cash equivalents that were 
subject to interest rate fluctuations at the reporting date. At reporting date, if interest rates had been 1% higher or lower 
and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s profit or loss before tax would increase or decrease by $125,000 
(2018: $202,000).

Capital Management

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns while 
maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Group’s overall strategy 
remains unchanged from 2017. The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt (borrowings as detailed in note 3.3 
offset by cash and bank balances) and equity of the Group (comprising issued capital, reserves, retained earnings as detailed 
in notes 4.1, 4.4 and 4.5). The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Accounting policies

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the 
instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly 
attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial 
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial 
liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or 
financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

2.6.1 Financial	assets

Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair value through profit or 
loss’ (FVTPL), ‘held-to-maturity’ investments, ‘available-for-sale’ (AFS) financial assets and ‘loans and receivables’. The 
classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. 
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way 
purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established 
by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

Loans and receivables

Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active 
market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective 
interest method, less any impairment. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-
term receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial. Trade receivables are regularly reviewed and the Group applies 
the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses as per AASB 9.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest 
income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts 
(including all fees on points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and 
other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the 
net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified 
as at FVTPL.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 201958

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. 
Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that 
occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

For AFS equity instruments, including listed or unlisted shares, objective evidence of impairment includes information about 
significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technological, market, economic or legal environment 
in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recovered. 
A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of 
impairment for unlisted shares classified as available-for-sale.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the 
asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original 
effective interest rate. For financial assets that are carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the 
difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the 
current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods. 
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets. 

For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, assets are assessed for impairment on a collective basis 
even if they were assessed not to be impaired individually. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables 
could include the Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the 
portfolio past the average credit period, age of receivables as well as observable changes in national or local economic 
conditions that correlate with default on receivables. The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected 
credit losses from initial recognition of the trade receivable as per AASB 9.

When an AFS financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in other 
comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the period. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in 
a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event 
occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss 
to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the 
amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it 
transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Group 
neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred 
asset, the Group recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If 
the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to 
recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the 
consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive 
income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss.

2.6.2 Financial	liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities ‘at FVTPL’ or ‘other financial liabilities’

Derivative financial instruments

The Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risk, 
including forward foreign exchange contracts.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently 
remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately 
unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event, the timing of the recognition in profit 
or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. 

Derivatives are classified as a non-current asset or a non-current liability if the remaining maturity of the hedge relationship 
is more than 12 months after the reporting period and as a current asset or a current liability if the remaining maturity of the 
hedge relationship is less than 12 months after the reporting period.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS59

Hedge accounting

Hedges of foreign exchange risk on firm commitments are designated as cash flow hedges. At the inception of the hedge 
relationship, the Group documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, along with its risk 
management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Furthermore, at the inception of the 
hedge and on an ongoing basis, the Group documents whether the hedging instrument is effective in offsetting changes in 
fair values or cash flows of the hedged item.

Cash flow hedge

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is 
recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of cash flow hedging reserve. The gain or 
loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss as part of other expenses or other income.

Amounts recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods 
when the hedged item is recognised in profit or loss in the same line of the income statement as the recognised hedge item. 
However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial 
liability, the gains and losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are transferred 
from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the non-financial asset or non-financial liability.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer 
qualifies for hedge accounting. At that time, any cumulative gain or loss deferred in equity remains in equity and is recognised 
when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in profit or loss. However, if all or a portion of a loss recognised directly 
in equity is not expected to be recovered in one or more future periods, the amount that is not expected to be recovered is 
recognised immediately in the profit and loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain 
or loss that was deferred in equity is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Hedge Strategy

Shriro reports internally on all outstanding foreign purchase orders already place with suppliers. Shriro hedges all confirmed 
purchase orders and will also cover up to 80% of the remaining outstanding forecast purchases not yet ordered for between 3 
months to 9 months. Shriro also holds between 4 to 6 months stock which acts like a natural hedge. The hedging of currency 
gives Shriro time to react should the Australian dollar depreciation against the USD, YEN or EUR.

Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and 
impairment losses.

Plant and equipment are measured at their cost of acquisition at the date of acquisition, being the fair value of the 
consideration provided plus incidental costs directly attributed to the acquisition. The carrying amount of plant and 
equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from those assets. 

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives to the 
Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets (other than freehold land and properties under 
construction) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, 
residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in 
estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected 
to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, 
plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and 
is recognised in profit or loss.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS61

Impairment

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there 
is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of 
the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the 
recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which 
the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated 
to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a 
reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated 
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments 
of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been 
adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying 
amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised 
immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is 
treated as a revaluation decrease.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased 
to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying 
amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in 
prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at 
a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

A number of the Group’s leases have extension options. The Group assumes that all lease options, if available will be 
exercised at the inception of each lease.

The Group is not party to any finance lease liabilities. As at 31 December 2019 there were no other material liabilities. 

Accounting policies

The Group as a lessee assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of the contract. The Group recognises 
a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except 
for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets. For these 
leases, the Group recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease 
unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased 
assets are consumed. 

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement 
date, discounted by using the Group’s incremental equivalent borrowing rate. 

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability compromise: 

•  Fixed lease payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives

•  Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date 

•  The amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees 

•  The exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options 

•  Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease.

•  Payment of onerous leases.

The Group assumes that all lease options, if available will be exercised at the inception of each lease.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS63

The lease liability is presented as a separate line in the consolidated statement of financial position. The lease liability is 
subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the effective interest 
method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made. 

The Group remeasures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use assets) whenever: 

•  The lease term has changed or there is a change in the assessment of exercise of a purchase option, in which case the 

lease liabilities is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate 

•  The lease payments change due to changes in an index or rate or a change in expected payment under guaranteed residual 
value, in which cases the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised leased payments using the initial discount 
rate (unless the lease payments change is due to a change in a floating interest rate, in which case a revised discount rate 
is used) 

•  A lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, in which case the lease 

liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate. 

The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or 
before the commencement day and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated 
depreciation and impairment losses. 

Whenever the Group incurs an obligation for costs to dismantle and remove a leased asset, restore the site on which it is 
located or restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, a provision is 
recognised and measured under AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. 

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. If a lease 
transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group expects to exercise 
a purchase option, the related right-of-use asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset. The depreciation 
starts at the commencement date of the lease. 

The right-of-use assets are presented as a separate line in the consolidated statement of financial position. 

The Group applies AASB 136 Impairment of Assets to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and accounts for 
any identified impairment loss as described in the ‘Property, plant and equipment’ policy.

Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and the right-
of-use asset. The related payments are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers 
those payments occurs and are included in the line ‘Rental costs ’ in the statement of profit or loss. 

As a practical expedient, AASB 16 permits a lessee not to separate non-lease components, and instead account for any lease 
and associates non-lease component as a single arrangement. The Group has not used this practical expedient.

3.3.1 Facility

During the financial year end 31 December 2019, the Group had the following banking facilities:

i.  The Group has a trade finance facility available to meet working capital requirements. To account for seasonality in working 
capital requirements, on the 1st September each year, the facility limit for the combination of the overdraft facility and trade 
finance facility increases to $21,000,000 and reduces back to $16,000,000 between 1 January and 31 August each year. 

ii. The Group has a non-cash guarantees facility of $11,000,000. Under the terms of this facility, financial institutions 

provide guarantees to the Group’s suppliers and property owners in the form of Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees. 
These Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees act like insurance and provide assurance to suppliers and property owners 
that payment up to the amount of the guarantees will be made if certain documentary conditions are met. The Group has 
no obligation to make any payments under this non-cash facility.

The Group’s facilities are denominated in Australian dollars and variable interest rates apply.

The facilities have financial covenants relating to fixed charge cover ratio, borrowing base cover ratio and leverage ratio.

Due to the Group’s favourable net debt positions over the past 6 years the total Group facility limits have been reduced by 
49% since 31 December 2014. The ability to reduce the facility limit has resulted in significant cost savings for the Group 
whilst also maintaining good relations with the bank due to the strong cash inflows. The Group continues to have significant 
headroom within the current facility.

The cash flow hedging reserve represents the cumulative effective portion of gains or losses arising on changes in fair value 
of hedging instruments entered into for cash flow hedges. The cumulative gain or loss arising on changes in fair value of the

to profit or loss only when the hedged transaction affects the profit or loss, or is included as a basis adjustment to the

Exchange differences relating to the translation of the results and net assets of the Group’s foreign operations from 
their functional currencies to the Group’s presentation currency (i.e. Australian dollars) are recognised directly in other 
comprehensive income and accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve. Exchange differences previously 
accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve (in respect of translating both the net assets of foreign operations and 
hedges of foreign operations) are reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the foreign operation.

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of 
the equity instruments at the grant date. Fair value is measured by use of a binomial model. The expected life used in the 
model is adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and 
behavioral considerations.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis 
over the vesting period, based on the Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest with a corresponding 
adjustment to reserves.

Accounting policies

For the purpose of the financial statements, the results and financial position of the Group are expressed in Australian dollars, 
which is the functional currency of the company and the presentation currency for the consolidated financial statements.

In preparing the financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the Group’s functional currency (foreign 
currencies) are recognised at the rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, 
monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items 
carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the 
fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not 
retranslated.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 201970

Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for:

•  exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks (see note 2.6.2 for 

hedging accounting policies); and

•  exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither 
planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation), which are recognised 
initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of the monetary items.

For the purpose of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign 
operations are translated into Australian dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Income 
and expense items are translated at the average monthly exchange rates during the period, unless exchange rates fluctuated 
significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange 
differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to non-
controlling interests as appropriate).

guarantee are:

Accounting policies 

Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits, are measured at their nominal values using the 
remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.

Liabilities recognised in respect of long term employee benefits are measured as the present value of the estimated future 
cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date. The discount rate 
adopted at 31 December 2019 is the High Quality Corporate Bond Rate.

5.5 Share-based payments
5.5.1 LTI	Plan

The Company established an equity incentive plan (LTI Plan) to assist in the motivation, retention and reward of senior 
management. The Plan is designed to align the interests of employees and senior management with the interests of 
Shareholders by providing an opportunity for employees to receive an equity interest in the Company. Long term incentives 
are established under the Plan. 

The Plan Rules provide flexibility for the Company to grant performance rights, options and/or restricted shares, subject to the 
terms of individual offers. 

Performance rights have been granted to the CEO, CFO and other senior management.

No non-executive director holds any performance rights over the shares in Shriro Holdings Limited. Tim Hargreaves has 
been issued with 415,225 performance rights (2018: 150,000), these are excluded from the table below as any shares 
issued will be acquired by an on-market purchase of the relevant number of shares and will not be by way of an issue of 
new shares. Shane Booth was granted 202,422 performance rights (2018: 73,125) under the LTIP during the financial year 
ended 31 December 2019. Other senior management have been issued with 332,217 of performance rights in respect of 
the 2019 year (2018: 174,785) in line with the long term incentives plan during the financial year ended 31 December 2018. 
The amortised LTIP performance rights recognised in consolidated statement of profit or loss for the financial year ended 
31 December 2019 was $159,000 (2018: $41,000).

No director received any shares under the employee gift offer in the current or previous years.

6. Other Information
6.1 Restatement	impact	of	new	accounting	standard	AASB	16	‘Leases’
Impact of the new definition of a lease

The change to the definition of a lease mainly relates to the concept of control. AASB 16 determines whether a contract 
contains a lease on the basis of whether the customer has the right to control the use of an identified asset for the period of 
time in exchange for consideration.

The Group has made use of the practical expedient available on transition to AASB 16 not to reassess whether a contract is 
or contains a lease. Accordingly, the definition of a lease in accordance with IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 will continue to be applied to 
those contracts entered or modified before 1 January 2019. 

The Group applies the definition of a lease and related guidance set out in AASB 16 to all contracts entered into or changed on 
or after 1 January 2019. In preparation for the first-time application of AASB 16, the Group has carried out an implementation 
project. The project has shown that the new definition in AASB 16 will not significantly change the scope of contracts that 
meet the definition of a lease for the Group.

Former operating leases

AASB 16 changes how the Group accounts for leases previously classified as operating leases under AASB 117, which were 
off-balance sheet. 

Applying AASB 16, for all leases (except as noted below), the Group: 

•  Recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position, initially measured at 

the present value of future lease payments 

•  Recognises depreciation of right-of-use assets and interest on lease liabilities in the consolidated statement of profit or loss 

•  Separates the total amount of cash paid into a principal portion (presented within financing activities) and interest 

(presented within operating activities) in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Lease incentives (e.g. free rent period) are recognised as part of the measurement of the right-of-use assets and lease 
liabilities, whereas under AASB 117 they resulted in the recognition of a lease incentive liability, amortised as a reduction of 
rental expense on a straight-line basis. 

Under AASB 16, right-of-use assets are tested for impairment in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets. This 
replaces the previous requirement to recognise a provision for onerous lease contracts.

For short-term leases (lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value asset (such as personal computers and office 
furniture), the Group has opted to recognise a lease expense on a straight-line basis as permitted by AASB 16. This expense is 
presented within other expenses in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Impact on the statement of cash flows

The application of AASB 16 has an impact on the consolidated statement of cash flows of the Group.

Under AASB 16, leases must present: 

•  Short-term lease payments, payments for leases of low-value assets and variable lease payments not included in the 

measurement of the lease liabilities as part of the operating activities (the Group has included these payments as part of 
payments to suppliers and employees) 

•  Cash paid for the interest portion of lease liabilities as either operating activities or financing activities, as permitted by 

AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows (the Group has opted to include interest paid as part of operating activities) 

•  Cash payments for the principal portion of leases liabilities, as part of financing activities. 

Under AASB 117, all lease payments on operating leases were presented as part of cash flows from operating activities. 
Consequently, the net cash generated by operating activities has increased by $2,468,000 (2018: $2,844,000) and net cash 
used in financing activities increased by the same amount. The adoption of AASB 16 did not have an impact on net cash flows.

Accounting policies
Changes in accounting policies and disclosures

In the current period, the Group has applied the new and revised AASB 16 ‘Leases’ issued by the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board (AASB). 

AASB 16 introduces new or amended requirements with respect to lease accounting. It introduces significant changes to the 
lessee accounting by removing the distinction between operating and finance leases and requiring the recognition of a right-
of-use asset and a lease liability at commencement for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low value assets. 
In contrast to lease accounting, the requirements for lessor accounting have remained largely unchanged. 

The date of initial application of AASB 16 for the Group is 1 January 2019. The Group has applied AASB 16 using the full 
retrospective approach, with restatement of the comparative information.

6.3 Events after the reporting date
Subsequent to the year ended 31 December 2019, the Group’s banking facilities have been renegotiated. There were no 
material changes to the terms and conditions.

There has not been any other matter or circumstance, not already disclosed, occurring subsequent to the end of the financial 
year that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or 
the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.

6.4 Statement of accounting policies
Statement of Compliance

These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with 
the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations, and comply with other requirements of the law. 
The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Group. For the purposes of preparing the 
consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity. Accounting Standards include Australian Accounting 
Standards. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes of the Group 
comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board 
(IASB). Consequently, this financial report has been prepared in accordance with and complies with IFRS as issued by 
the IASB.

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 27 February 2020.

Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the measurement of 
certain financial instruments at fair value. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in 
exchange for goods and services. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between 
market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated 
using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the 
characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the 
asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated 
financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope 
of AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’, leasing transactions that are within the scope of AASB 16 ‘Leases’, and measurements 
that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’ or 
value in use in AASB 136 ‘Impairment of assets’.

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 201978

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the 
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value 
measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

•  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at 

the measurement date;

•  L evel 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, 

either directly or indirectly; and

•  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financials/Directors’ Reports) 
Instrument 2016/191, dated 24 March 2016, and in accordance with that Corporations Instrument amounts in the directors’ 
report and the financial statements are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the 
Company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the Company:

•  has power over the investee;

•  is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

•  has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to 
one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the company 
loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are 
included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains 
control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the 
non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the 
non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line 
with the Group’s accounting policies.

Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in existing subsidiaries

Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries 
are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are 
adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the 
non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity 
and attributed to owners of the Company.

Tax consolidation

The company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities have formed a tax-consolidated group with effect from 23 June 
2015 and are therefore taxed as a single entity from that date. The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is Shriro 
Holdings Limited. The members of the tax-consolidated group are Shriro Australia Pty Limited and Shriro Pty Limited. This 
resulted in the closure of the previous multiple entry consolidated group which consisted of Shriro Pty Limited and Shriro 
Chaplin Drive Lane Cove Pty Ltd. 

Tax expense/income, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the members of 
the tax-consolidated group are recognised in the separate financial statements of the members of the tax-consolidated group 
using the ‘separate taxpayer within group’ approach by reference to the carrying amounts in the separate financial statements 
of each entity and the tax values applying under tax.

Current tax liabilities and assets and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and relevant tax credits of the 
members of the tax-consolidated group are recognised by the company (as head entity in the tax-consolidated group).

SHRIRO HOLDINGS LIMITED | ANNUAL REPORT 2019NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS79

Entities within the tax-consolidated group have entered into a tax funding arrangement and a tax sharing agreement with the 
head entity. Under the terms of the tax funding arrangement, the company and each of the entities in the tax-consolidated 
group has agreed to pay a tax equivalent payment to or from the head entity, based on the current tax liability or current tax 
asset of the entity.

Under the terms of the tax funding arrangement, amounts are recognised as payable to or receivable by the company and 
each member of the group in relation to the tax contribution amounts paid or payable between the parent entity and the other 
members of the tax-consolidated group in accordance with the arrangement.

The tax sharing agreement provides for the determination of the allocation of income tax liabilities between the entities 
should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations or if an entity should leave the tax consolidated group. The effect 
of the tax sharing agreement is that each member’s liability for tax payable by the tax-consolidated group is limited to the 
amount payable to the head entity under the tax funding arrangement.

reached a determination as to the impact on the accounting policies detailed below.
