CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

l

a

s
r
e
p

r
o
F

2020 will be remembered as one of the most challenging 
years in recent history on a number of fronts. The year 
started with the country recovering from an unprecedented 
bushfire season in terms of extent and intensity, only then to 
succumb to the sudden impact of COVID-19 which affected 
all of us in ways that much of the community could never 
have imagined. Shriro responded quickly to the Government 
enforced lock downs, with the health and safety of our 
people and our customers our primary concern.

After a period of unexpected and tenuous trading conditions, 
the Company’s results were buoyed by customers diverting 
discretionary spend from travel into making their homes and 
lifestyle more functional and comfortable. The Australian 
and New Zealand Government’s stimulus packages helped 
the economic recovery in certain market segments and the 
working and shopping from home routine has forced change, 
enhanced efficiency and created opportunity.

Results

The year was definitely a story of two halves with the first 
half to June significantly impacted by retail shutdowns, 
with the second half rebounding strongly. Revenue for the 
full year grew 11.2% over the prior corresponding period 
to $191.3 million. Trading Margins improved to 39.6% 
(pcp 39.1%) whilst Operating Expenses decreased by 
11.8% to $43.5 million compared to the prior corresponding 
period of $49.3 million. Operating Expenses were positively 
impacted by substantial one-off items, those being 
Government Subsidies of $3.7 million and the Head Office 
Lease exit of $2.3 million.

In response to the initial business slow-down and the 
resultant revenue losses compared to the prior year, the 
Board, management and staff participated in a program 
of salary reductions. Subsequently, and because of the 
improved trading conditions and operating performance, 
staff, with the exception of the CEO, CFO & Board were fully 
re-imbursed those salary reductions.

Net Profit Before Tax increased to $25.2 million and Statutory 
Profit After Tax increased to $18.2 million being up 168.1% 
and 180.0%, respectively on the prior corresponding period.

Operating cash flows for the year was $22.2 million and the 
Balance Sheet as at December 31 was is a healthy position 
with $17.6 million of cash on hand and no debt.

A fully franked final dividend of 4.0 cents per share 
was declared bringing the full year dividend to 7.0 cents 
per share.

Outlook

With the JobKeeper subsidies having concluded at the end of 
March, there remains a level of uncertainty as to what impact 
that may have on the economy. However, we remain hopeful 
that a buoyant housing market and a continued deployment 
of discretionary spend into domestic consumer durables will 
have a positive impact on the market segments in which we 
trade, at least for the near term.

The Company is focussed on building a compelling BBQ 
category internationally and is seeing some positive early 
signs on this front. Whilst the U.S trade tariffs are causing 
some initial margin and therefore price pressure in that 
region, the growth emanating from the European market 
is encouraging.

After a period of cost consolidation, the Company has 
some investment to make in key management roles and 
information technology to ensure that it has the necessary 
expertise and systems in place to form the foundations 
necessary for sustainable long-term growth.

On behalf of the Board, I wish to thank Tim Hargreaves, 
the management team and all our staff for their agility, hard 
work and their ability to navigate swiftly through the change, 
challenge and regulation that the Government’s response to 
COVID-19 generated.

Finally, I’d like to thank my fellow Directors and Company 
Secretary, along with our customers, suppliers and our 
shareholders for your ongoing support and I look forward to 
seeing you at our forthcoming AGM.

MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT

5

The Company is now well placed to strategically invest in 
additional technology platforms including digital marketing and 
customer relationship management programmes to engage 
with customers better, improve our value proposition and by 
using data and insights, to also enhance our overall customer 
experience. Technology will enable Shriro to be future fit, able 
to adapt quickly and innovate as effectively as possible.

Expanding our markets
The Company’s international expansion continued. Scandinavia, 
UK and Germany grew significantly over the period through our 
expanding dealer network. South Africa, Israel and Russia also 
reported good penetration despite the COVID-19 lockdowns. 
The established network has laid the distribution foundation for 
the continued growth of the Everdure by Heston barbecue range 
and an avenue to export new product lines such as the award-
winning ‘Aura’ air movement product, which is now also available 
in the UK, Germany and USA.

Overall, international barbecue sales increased 65 percent 
compared to the prior year. Even with travel restrictions remaining 
in place for the upcoming northern hemisphere summer, Shriro 
expects sales of barbecues to grow at a similar rate as in 2021. 

Having established a USA subsidiary in 2019, the Company is 
anticipating 2021 to be a year of growth on the prior period, with 
specialty retailers adjusting well to COVID-19 restrictions and 
our e-commerce strategy starting to take effect. The Company 
is beginning to see the benefits of the marketing investment in 
our key e-commerce channels, with both Amazon and Best Buy 
sales increasing tenfold, (off a low base) YTD on PCP.

Shriro will continue to increase its investment in consumer-
focused digital marketing activities, particularly in key European 
markets where the product has been received well and sales 
traction continues to gain momentum. As our retail networks 
in each market are now much larger, the Company is shifting 
the focus from trade-driven campaigns to consumer-focused 
marketing efforts. 

The Company’s supply teams continue to work closely with 
the manufacturing partners to ensure production meets the 
relatively short supply window for summer-related goods 
and the expected increase in consumer demand. Our 2021 
plans involve establishing a 3PL warehouse overseas to hold 
additional stock to ship promptly to key markets such as 
Germany and the UK. 

Investing in our future
The Company will continue to invest in bringing innovative 
design and technology to its products, such as barbecues and 
air-movement products, to drive revenue growth. We will seek 
to bring technology from inside the house to outdoor into our 
entertainment spaces.

The new financial year will see our head office move to 
Chatswood, while the New Zealand office has been recently 
upgraded. Shriro is implementing a more flexible, hybrid working 
model for head office staff and a number of other programmes 
for staff such as employee assistance programmes and 
professional learning and development. 

Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Shriro 
team for its professionalism, spirit and sheer hard work during 
what has been a particularly trying 12 months. I would also like 
to express my appreciation to the Board for its ongoing support 
and counsel. 

TIM HARGREAVES
Chief Executive Officer

“A record financial result driven by consumers increased 
discretionary spend on home, electrical and hobby market 
segments and a resilient and nimble management team.”

Challenging does not seem to adequately describe the past 
12 months. It certainly challenged Shriro and many who work for 
us and with us, personally and professionally. Ultimately, however, 
we successfully navigated 2020 and have come out stronger.

In 2020 life changed
For many, last year focussed us on our local environment and 
the importance of our homes. Most of us spent more time there 
than ever before. Normally, a large number of our Australian and 
New Zealand consumers would travel and eat out, but they had 
to adjust. We changed the way we used our homes, who and 
how we inhabited them. Many people spent more time at home 
with their families, adopting hobbies such as learning to play an 
instrument or baking sourdough.

This change in the daily routine led to increased demand for 
many of Shriro’s product categories. The Company achieved 
record sales in Casio electronic musical instruments and 
Everdure by Heston Blumenthal barbeques. 

Focusing on financial strength
Shriro’s revenue increased by 11.2 per cent to $191.3 million and 
net profit after tax increased to $18.2 million (with $4.2 million 
in head office lease savings and government subsidies), up 
180 percent when compared to the prior year. 

 The Company started 2020 with a strong balance sheet and net 
cash of $6.0 million. The Company paid $5.7 million in dividends 
during the year and concluded 2020 with a net cash balance 
of $17.6 million. With the strong balance sheet, government 
subsidies and solid sales result, Shriro was able to ensure that all 
current staff members, excluding myself, the CFO and directors, 
were fully reimbursed by year end for any reductions in hours, 
leave taken or salary cuts extended during the lockdowns. 

Shriro heads into the current year with no debt, cash of 
$17.6 million and a strategic plan in the making to best support 
growth initiatives and optimal deployment of capital over the 
coming years.

Negotiating uncertain times
Although the company benefited from stronger consumer 
demand, from an operational perspective, 2020 presented 
us with product supply challenges. When COVID-19 hit, 
manufacturers scaled back production at a time when demand 
for consumer durables increased significantly which led to 
product supply shortages. In addition to the supply challenges, 
delays with port logistics led to late arrivals of products only 
added to the inventory management challenges. 

Despite these headwinds, it was a credit to our supply chain 
team to be able to continue to secure stock to ensure our 
customer orders were ultimately fulfilled.

Customer focus driving technology strategy 
Last year saw the finalisation of the three-year program to 
rationalise our operating cost base.

Operating and Financial Review

Net Profit after Tax for the year ended 31 December 2020 increased 180.0% to $18.2 million. Net profit before tax increased 
168.1% to $25.2 million, compared with the previous year (pcp), of $9.4 million.

Group revenue performance was subdued in the first half due to lock-downs in Australia and New Zealand, however it 
rebounded in the second half with growth of 22.4% pcp. The majority of the Group’s divisions performed well as the COVID-19 
travel restrictions resulted in consumers spending more on household items.

During the period, the revenue of the Australian Appliances Commercial Division, which sells appliances to developers, 
declined moderately as a result of the subdued housing development cycle. This Division should benefit from growing building 
approvals, but circumstances with COVID-19 remain uncertain.

Outlook

2020

The Group has undertaken a three-year operating costs optimisation plan to 31 December 2020. Operating expenses reduced 
by 10.3% pcp (or decreased by 4.32.8% if the Government subsidies of $3.7 million are excluded). A reduction in showroom 
capacity reduced costs by approximately $1.92 million per year, as compared to CY18 when the cost rationalisation began.

The reduced operating costs, combined with revenue growth have resulted in EBITDA of $32.3 million, up 79.4% pcp.

Shriro will continue to conserve cash until the uncertainty created by COVID-19 has passed. Shriro has no debt apart from 
lease liabilities and as at 31 December 2020 had $17.6 million cash on hand.

The Company continues to invest in its Workplace, Health and Safety (WHS) processes and engaged external advisors to audit 
Shriro’s Workplace, Health and Safety environment and to recommend improvements to ensure it operates at best practice. 
The Company continues its record of having no major workplace injuries.

The mental health and well-being of staff remains a high priority for the business. An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) 
has been rolled out supporting all staff. This program forms part of a longer-term strategy to ensure all staff are adequately 
equipped to deal with emotional and mental health challenges personally and professionally.

The outlook for the business is influenced by the uncertainty associated with COVID-19 as well as global trade, geo-political 
and economic factors and the manner in which developments in any of these areas may affect business and investment 
confidence and continued lower expenditure on travel and services may continue to positively impact demand for household 
goods. The COVID-19 impact and timing of the vaccine is still uncertain and the impact on the next financial period cannot 
be accurately quantified or determined. Management will update the market should it foresee any material impact on 
business operations.

Notwithstanding these external influences, the following factors are expected to have a bearing on CY21 outlook for the Group:

•  The Group is performing well across most of its product categories and this will continue into the first quarter of 2021 

unless disrupted by further COVID-19 related lockdowns. The Group intends to reinstate its marketing expenditure in line 
with previous levels.

•  Management will add additional resources to its Australian Appliances Divisions in order to capture market share and 

continue its success with the new Omega range rolled out to retailers in the first quarter of CY20.

•  The Group is conducting a strategic review of the business to drive transformative growth and maximise capital deployment 

for new opportunities.

Employees

During this financial year, the number of employees ranged between 224 and 242 and was 224 at year end (2019: 239).

Earnings per share

The basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of shares. The basic earnings 
per share is 19.1 cents (2019: 6.8 cents) and diluted earnings per share is 18.9 cents for CY20 (2019: 6.7 cents).

DIVIDENDS
On 30 March 2020, the Group paid the 2019 financial year end dividend of 3.0 cents per share fully franked.

On 23 September 2020, the Group paid an interim dividend for the half year ended 30 June 2020 of 3.0 cents per share 
fully franked.

On 26 February 2021 the Directors declared a final dividend of 4.0 cents per share fully franked with an ex-dividend date of the 
16 March 2021, record date of the 17 March 2021 and payable on 7 April 2021.

AUDITED REMUNERATION REPORT
This remuneration report, which forms part of the Directors’ report, details the key management personnel remuneration 
arrangements for the Company, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations.

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The objective of the Company’s remuneration framework is to reward for performance whilst maintaining competitiveness 
with the market and appropriateness for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with achievement of 
strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders.

Remuneration and Nomination Committee

To assist the Board in the remuneration framework objective, a Remuneration and Nomination Committee is established 
as a Committee of the Board. The main responsibilities of the Committee, in relation to remuneration, include:

•  Reviewing remuneration arrangements for the CEO, CFO and other senior executives.

•  Reviewing Non-Executive Director fees.

•  Reviewing and making recommendations on the over-arching executive remuneration framework and incentive plans.

Its objective is to ensure that remuneration policies and structures are fair and competitive and aligned with the long-term 
interests of the Company. In doing this, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee seeks advice from independent 
remuneration consultants.

The Board is responsible for reviewing and resolving on recommendations from the Remuneration and Nomination 
Committee. In addition, the Board:

•  Considers matters relating to remuneration of Executives reporting to the CEO.

•  Approves the establishment of or amendment to employee shares, performance rights and any other deferred 

incentive plan.

•  Considers matters related to Executive succession planning.

•  Considers recommendations from the Nomination Committee in relation to Board succession planning, to ensure 

an appropriate mix of skills, experience, expertise and diversity (subject to the power of shareholders in General Meeting 
to elect or re-elect Directors).

Key Management Personnel

The Key Management Personnel of Shriro Holdings Limited are the non-executive Directors of the Company and:

Tim Hargreaves  Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, and

Shane Booth 

Chief Financial Officer, Company Secretary (resigned as Company Secretary 27 January 2021).

Non-Executive Director Remuneration

The non-executive Directors at the date of this Report are:

Stephen Heath – Chairman

Cheryl Hayman

Abigail Cheadle 

Non-executive Directors are paid an annual fee which is reviewed annually by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee 
and the Board. The Board uses the advice of independent remuneration consultants, as appropriate, to ensure non-executive 
director fees are appropriate and in line with the market. Non-executive director fees include, where applicable, compulsory 
superannuation contributions. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee, on behalf of the Board, engaged Guerdon 
Associates Pty Ltd to support a review of the LTI framework. The cost of this review was $23,095.

The non-executive Directors do not participate in the Company’s LTIP.

Executive Remuneration

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.

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. 
In line with best remuneration practice, the Board intends, in the future, to ensure remuneration is competitive with comparable 
companies and may undertake external evaluations, from time to time, to ensure market competitiveness with a view to 
ensuring it attracts and retains the best people. 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 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 2020 was structured on the following basis:

In CY20, Tim Hargreaves was 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 CY20 financial year’s budgeted profit after tax. Shane Booth was 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 CY20 financial year’s budgeted profit after tax.

If the Group’s profit after tax was between the STI target and the stretch target, Tim Hargreaves was entitled to a proportionate 
cash STI reward of between 60% and 120% of his total fixed annual employment cost and Shane Booth was entitled to a 
proportionate 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 was at least 95% of the STI target, Tim Hargreaves was entitled to a cash STI reward equivalent to 
30% of his total fixed annual employment cost ($180,000) and Shane Booth was entitled to an STI award equivalent to 20% of 
his total fixed annual employment cost ($78,000).

STI awards will be paid in cash following the Board’s approval of the Company’s financial statements for the relevant year. The 
impact of government subsidies received during the financial year, such as the Job Keeper allowance, have been excluded 
from all STI calculations.

Subsequent to year end the Director’s approved the payment to the STI awards for the CEO of $720,000 and for the CFO 
$312,000. This was achieved without including Government subsidies.

Long-Term Incentive

A Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) has been implemented in accordance with Shriro’s Employee Share Scheme Rules. 
As it stands at 31 December 2020, 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.

Term: 

Tim Hargreaves has been issued with 359,281 Rights in respect of the 2020 year with an effective date of 1 January 2020 
(2019: 415,225; 2018: 150,000). Testing for achievement of the performance hurdle follows 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. 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.

Shane Booth has been issued with 175,150 Rights in respect of the 2020 year (2019: 202,422; 2018: 73,125). Testing for 
achievement of the performance hurdle follows Board approval of the Company’s financial statements three years after the 
Rights effective issue date.

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%.

After vesting, each Right can be exercised and converted to an equivalent number of shares of the Company, or cash at the 
Board’s discretion. The rights have been granted free of charge.

The impact of government subsidies received during the financial year, such as the JobKeeper allowance, have been excluded 
from all LTIP calculations.

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.

for agreeing to hold the position.

Non-executive Directors have no entitlement to a cash bonus or any non-monetary benefits.

Bonuses and share-based payments granted as compensation for the current financial year

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 Executive Incentive Plan Rules provide flexibility for the Company to grant performance rights, options and/or restricted 
shares, subject to the terms of the 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 2021 year will be approved by the Board.

Tim Hargreaves was granted 359,281 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 (2019: 415,225). 
Shane Booth was granted 175,150 performance rights (2019: 202,422) under the LTIP during the financial year ended 
31 December 2020.

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.

The key terms of the awards under the employee LTIP 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 after 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 basis

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 CAGR 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.

Cessation of

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.

CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS
COVID-19 had an impact on the business. The trading was restricted early in the financial year then benefited from the 
increased consumer demand for household products later in the financial year. There were no other significant changes in 
the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
After the year ended 31 December 2020, the Board approved an uncommitted revolving debt facility of $14 million with the 
non-cash facility remaining in place. 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.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
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
The Directors and Officers of the Company are indemnified by the Company against losses or liabilities which they may 
sustain or incur in their role or in the proper performance of their duties. During the financial year, the Company paid premiums 
in respect of contracts to insure the Directors and the officers against a liability 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 premiums. The Group 
has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the Group 
against a liability incurred as the auditor.

NON-AUDIT SERVICES
Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services in the current year are outlined in note 6.1 to the 
financial statements.

In accordance with the recommendation from the audit, risk and compliance committee of the Company and 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 2020DIRECTORS’ REPORT 
 
 
29

Also in accordance with the recommendation from the audit, risk and compliance committee, the Directors are satisfied that 
the nature and scope of each type of non-audit services provided means that the auditor independence was not compromised. 
The auditors have also provided the audit, risk and compliance committee with a report confirming that, in their professional 
judgment, they have maintained their independence in accordance with the firm’s requirements, the provisions of APES 110 
Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants and applicable provisions of the Corporations Act.

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
The auditor’s independence declaration (which forms part of the Directors’ report) has been received and is included on 
page 30 of the annual report.

EXTENSION OF AUDIT ROTATION PERIOD
The Directors, via a company resolution, granted approval in accordance with section 324DAA of the Corporations 
Act to extend the tenure of Xenia Delaney as the lead Audit Partner for a sixth consecutive year to 31 December 2020. 
The Directors considered the Board renewal during the 2019 financial year and the benefit of retaining knowledge to maintain 
audit quality during this period. 

The Board is satisfied that the approval is consistent with maintaining the quality of the audit and did not give rise to any 
conflicts of interest.

ROUNDING OFF OF AMOUNTS
The Company has applied the relief available under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financials/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 
2016/191. Accordingly, amounts in the Directors’ report and the financial statements are rounded off to the nearest thousand 
dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

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

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  2020,  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)

(ii)

giving a true  and fair  view  of the  Group’s financial position  as  at  31 December  2020 and of their
financial performance for the year then ended; and

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those
standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of
our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of
the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards
Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code)
that  are  relevant  to  our  audit  of  the  financial  report  in  Australia.  We  have  also  fulfilled  our  other  ethical
responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given
to the directors of the Company, would be 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.

Other Information

The  directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  Appendix  4E,  the
Directors’ Report 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): 2020 Highlights, Our Brands, Chairman’s Letter,
CEO’s  Report,  Corporate  Governance  Statement,  Business  at  a  Glance,  Business  review  -  Australia,  Business
review – New Zealand and Business review - Export, 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  2020  Highlights,  Our  Brands,  Chairman’s  Letter,  CEO’s  Report,  Corporate  Governance
Statement, Business at a Glance, Business review - Australia, Business review – New Zealand and Business review
- Export, 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.

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  fraud  may  involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that  are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the
effectiveness of the 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.

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, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards
applied.

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.

1.  Thing Thing is a clothing brand developed by the Group in New Zealand. It was sold on 1 October 2020. Proceeds of $465,000 were received. The net assets sold 

were inventory $32K and property, plant and equipment of $4K. Selling costs were $51K, resulting in a profit on the sale of the brand of $377K.

Accounting policies

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is constrained 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.

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. Revenue in the months prior 
and subsequent to year end is recognised after reviewing freight supplier proof of delivery documentation and expected 
customer delivery times.

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

Sale of goods

Rebates

1.2 Profit for the year

1.4 COVID-19 impact on operations

Australia

•  A number of retail customers were closed or operated in a reduced capacity during the period of March 2020 to April 2020. 

This negatively impacted watch sales particularly.

•  Staff hours were reduced by 40% in April and May. The Company resolved to fully reimburse existing staff for any shortfall 

in salary and wages, this excludes the Directors, CEO and CFO. The costs associated with this decision are included 
in the results.

•  Eligible for JobKeeper which resulted in an after-tax Government subsidy of $3,286,000 for CY20.

New Zealand

•  New Zealand went into lock-down for a month from 26 March 2020. During this period the New Zealand operations were 

shut down. Staff were stood down during this period.

•  Staff hours were also reduced by 40% in April and May. The Company has resolved to fully reimburse existing staff for any 

shortfall in salary and wages, this excludes the Directors, CEO and CFO. The costs associated with this decision are included 
in the results.

•  Eligible for the wages subsidy which resulted in an after-tax Government subsidy equivalent to AUD $393,000 for CY20.

•  The Company’s target state in the USA was California, which went into lock-down on several occasions during the first half. 
In response, the Company accelerated its sales strategy and shifted to an online digital go to market strategy which didn’t 
require any staff in the USA.

•  European sales did not appear to be materially impacted by COVID-19.

The group has evaluated its assets carrying value considering COVID-19 as an indicator of potential impairment, with no 
impairment noted, however, the outcome of COVID-19 and the impact of any future wave on results is uncertain.

1.5 Notes to the Statement of Cash Flows

1.5.1 Cash and cash equivalents

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash balances. Bank overdrafts 
are considered to be financing activities as they are used interchangeably to fund the operations and are not repayable 
on demand.

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the reporting period as shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows can 
be reconciled to the related items in the consolidated statement of financial position as follows:

Cash and bank balances

Accounting policies

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid 
investments with original maturities of three months or less.

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. The Group has applied 
the expected credit loss model under AASB 9 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.

The cost of inventories recognised as an expense during the year in respect of continuing operations was $115,497,000 
(2019: $104,818,000).

Stock aged over 3 years amount to 2.6% (2019: 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 judgements, 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 considering the recent sales experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that affect 
inventory obsolescence.

Employee benefits

(i)  The provision for employee benefits represents annual leave and long service leave entitlements accrued. 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 2020 and 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 two to five 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 judgements

In the preparation of the financial report the Directors are required to make judgements, 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.

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 are utilised:

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 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 the balance for 
insured debtors with a balance equal to or greater than $40,000 and above. The maximum exposure under this policy is 10% of 
the irrecoverable amount.

c. Bank guarantees and letters of credit

The Group uses 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. 
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 are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial 
assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and have contractual terms which give rise on specified dates to cash flows 
that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. 
Loans and receivables are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis.

All loans and receivables are measured subsequently in their entirety at either amortised cost. 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. For 
purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, a credit-adjusted effective interest rate is calculated by discounting the 
estimated future cash flows, including expected credit losses, to the amortised cost of the debt instrument on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method for debt instruments measured subsequently at amortised cost.

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 manage the risk associated with anticipated 
purchase transactions out to 9 months with 80% of the expected exposure hedged and to increase this to 100% where there 
are specific foreign currency payments and receipts.

Forward foreign exchange contracts

There is 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. 
There were no borrowings as at 31 December 2020 (2019: nil).

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 $18,000 
(2019: $125,000).

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

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. All recognised financial assets are measured subsequently in their entirety 
at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Classification of financial assets

Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are measured subsequently at amortised cost:

•  the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual 

cash flows; and

•  the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal 

and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive 
income (FVTOCI):

•  the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows 

and selling the financial assets; and

•  the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal 

and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

By default, all other financial assets are measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).

Loans and receivables

All loans and receivables are measured subsequently in their entirety at either amortised cost. 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. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, a credit-adjusted effective interest rate is calculated 
by discounting the estimated future cash flows, including expected credit losses, to the amortised cost of the debt instrument 
on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method for debt instruments measured subsequently at amortised 
cost. Trade receivables are regularly reviewed, and the Group applies the simplified expected credit loss model as per AASB 9.

Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on investments in debt instruments that are measured 
at amortised cost or at FVTOCI, lease receivables, trade receivables and contract assets, as well as on financial guarantee 
contracts. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial 
recognition of the respective financial instrument.

The Group always recognises lifetime expected credit losses (ECL) for trade receivables, contract assets and lease 
receivables. The expected credit losses on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on the Group’s 
historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions and an 
assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date, including time value of 
money where appropriate.

For all other financial instruments, the Group recognises lifetime ECL when there has been a significant increase in credit 
risk since initial recognition. However, if the credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial 
recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECL.

Lifetime ECL represents the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of 
a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECL represents the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default 
events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.

The measurement of expected credit losses is a function of the probability of default, loss given default (i.e. the magnitude 
of the loss if there is a default) and the exposure at default. The assessment of the probability of default and loss given 
default is based on historical data adjusted by forward-looking information as described above. As for the exposure at default, 
for financial assets, this is represented by the assets’ gross carrying amount at the reporting date; for financial guarantee 
contracts, the exposure includes the amount drawn down as at the reporting date, together with any additional amounts 
expected to be drawn down in the future by default date determined based on historical trend, the Group’s understanding 
of the specific future financing needs of the debtors, and other relevant forward-looking information.

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.

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

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.

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.

Hedge accounting

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 placed 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, NZD 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 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.

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.

3.2 Lease arrangements

3.2.1 The Group as lessee

The leases relate to the leasing of premises with lease terms of between 1 and 10 years. The Group does not have an option to 
purchase the leased land or buildings at the expiry of the lease periods.

The Group does not have any short-term leases less than 1 year.

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’s strategy to rationalise lease costs resulted in the exit of the Kingsgrove, New South Wales head office lease, 
the Western Australia Showroom lease and the Queensland showroom lease during 2020. Significant disposal and revaluation 
costs resulting from this initiative can be seen in the above note.

Shriro has also committed to a new head office lease post year end at Chatswood, New South Wales. This lease is not 
included in the above note, however the total minimum rent commitment over 5 years is $2.1 million.

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 comprise:

•  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 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.

During the financial year ended 31 December 2020, 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.

All assets of the Group have been pledged to secure the borrowings of the Group with ANZ.

The facilities have financial covenants relating to fixed charge cover ratio, borrowing base cover ratio and leverage ratio. 
The Group is compliant with all financial covenants.

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 
hedging instruments that are recognised and accumulated under the heading of cash flow hedging reserve will be reclassified 
to profit or loss only when the hedged transaction affects the profit or loss, or is included as a basis adjustment to the 
nonfinancial hedged item, consistent with the relevant accounting policy.

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.

1.  This wholly-owned subsidiary is a member of the tax-consolidated group and has entered into a deed of cross guarantee with Shriro Holdings Limited pursuant to 

ASIC Corporations (Wholly owned Companies) Instrument 2016/785 and are relieved from the requirement to prepare and lodge an audited financial report.

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 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.

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 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. Exchange differences arising, if any, are 
recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).

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 2020 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 359,281 performance rights (2019: 415,225). Shane Booth was granted 175,150 performance rights 
(2019: 202,422) under the LTIP during the financial year ended 31 December 2020. Other senior management have been 
issued with 283,835 of performance rights in respect of the 2020 year (2019: 332,217) in line with the long-term incentives 
plan during the financial year ended 31 December 2019. The amortised LTIP performance rights recognised in consolidated 
statement of profit or loss for the financial year ended 31 December 2020 was $408,000 (2019: $159,000).

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

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value

the model is adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, 
and behavioral considerations.

Where relevant, the expected life used in the model has been adjusted based on management’s best estimate for the effects

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.

6.3 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 issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board 
(AASB) 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. 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 26th February 2021.

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 considers 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’.

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 

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

at the measurement date;

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

•  has power over the investee;

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:

•  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 USA inc.

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).

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.

Accounting policy adopted for government grants

Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions 
attaching to them and that the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic 
basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to 
compensate. Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the 
purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the 
period in which they become receivable.

Changes in accounting policies and disclosures

In the current period, the Group has applied a number of new and revised AASBs issued by the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board (AASB). These are:

AASB 2018-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of a Business

AASB 2018-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of Material

AASB 2019-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – References to the Conceptual Framework

The application of these new and revised standards has had no material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

Standards and interpretations in issue not yet effective

The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of these new and revised standards, and interpretations, and has not yet 
reached a determination as to the impact on the accounting policies detailed below.
