In 2012, TIP was formed to offer Teaminvest members the opportunity to invest in (and mentor) the next generation of business leaders. Using the same investment principles, TIP allowed participants to provide hands on capital and advice directly to entrepreneurs. But as we grew, we realised just how poorly the financial services landscape caters for first generation wealth: • For those growing wealth, existing players offer little education and advice beyond risk mitigation and index-tracking; • For those deploying wealth, few quality investment opportunities are offered to investors on the primary market; and • For entrepreneurs needing capital, most funders are interested only in extremes: either growth at any cost, or totally averse to risk. Very few talk about what matters: delighting customers, eliminating unnecessary costs, and continuously improving products and services. All are symptoms of the same problem: a financial industry focused on quarterly results and uninterested in self-directed investors. As a company founded on the principles of conscious investing, it is in our DNA to approach the market differently. Seeking to educate, looking for long-term investment opportunities and seeing our role as custodians of the future – whether a family’s future when growing wealth, or a businesses future when deploying it. Integrating Wealth (the process of accumulating and deploying capital) with Equity (putting it productively to use) is what we have always done. We now want to do more of it: becoming the financial institution of choice for first generation wealth and fulfilling our noble purpose of transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. 4 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Noble purpose Mission Vision Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. We invest the wealth and experience of successful people to develop the next generation of business leaders, enhancing the legacy of all. To build a society in which the knowledge and wealth we accumulate over a lifetime isn’t lost, forcing the next generation to learn (and earn) it all again. 5 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Group Structure as of August 2023 CFO, COO & Company Secretary Dean Robinson Graham Lusty Trailers CEO Shay Chalmers East Coast Traffic Control CEO Greg Jeckeln Multimedia Technology CEO Johan Meyer Icon Metal CEO Stephen Pribula DecoGlaze CEO Will Van-Eyndhoven Colour Capital CEO Matt Hope Automation Group CEO Graham Nisbet Kitome CEO Carol Morley 6 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations.

Shares will be issued at the 30-day volume weighted average price leading up to the record date. Our DNA Teaminvest was established in 2007 as a private membership organisation for those who wish to educate themselves to manage their wealth wisely rather than paying others to do it badly for them. Combining the philosophy of Benjamin Graham and Warren Buffett with the business nous of a community of investors, Teaminvest has successfully identified Wealth Winners (businesses who combine a high return on equity; stably growing earnings; little or no debt; and trustworthy management) while avoiding most Capital Killers for over 15 years. Drawing on these same investment principles, TIP was formed in 2012 to offer Teaminvest members the opportunity to invest in (and mentor) the next generation of business leaders. TIP allowed participants to provide hands-on capital and advice directly to entrepreneurs. Since our founding we have made investments in two key areas: Equity and Wealth. Equity involves the provision of capital, mentorship and support to growing businesses. We predominantly invest in founder-led companies with strong moats, high return on equity, a track record of profits and little or no debt. When we invest in these businesses we seek to leverage their existing success by combining their knowledge with the wisdom, capital and support of our broader network. Over time, our success in Equity can be judged by a steadily growing Look Through revenue and EBITDA: i.e. by growing the earnings of those operating businesses in which we place our effort, capital and trust. “the networks and knowledge we accumulate as investors make us better business owners, and the skills we gain from owning businesses makes us better investors” 9 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Wealth involves the provision of education and financial services. It harnesses the philosophy and learnings of Teaminvest and TIP, and applies them to corporate advisory and funds management clients. The lead indicator for the success of wealth is a growing network of funds under management and funds under advice. When we manage and advise these clients well, our earnings should grow as a function of these two metrics. What makes TIP unique is our ability to integrate Wealth (the process of accumulating and deploying capital) with Equity (putting it productively to use) in a manner true to our principles of conscious investing. By doing so we generate an unfair advantage: the networks and knowledge we accumulate as investors make us better business owners, and the skills we gain from owning businesses makes us better investors. Ultimately, this unfair advantage is how we intend to deliver on our noble purpose of transferring knowledge and wealth between generations, and become the financial partner of choice for first generation wealth. Graham Lusty Trailers 10 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Look Through Results Look Through Results (formerly called Proportional Results) is the proportion of the revenue and EBITDA generated by our investments attributable to TIP Group. They are calculated by multiplying the percentage we own of an investment by the revenue and EBITDA it generates. They are a non-IFRS measure which we find more useful for understanding operating performance than Statutory Comprehensive Income (SCI) reported in accordance with accounting standards. In FY23 we report two divisions: TIP Equity and TIP Wealth. ($m) Equity Wealth Pre-abnormal Abnormal / discontinued operations Total ($m) Revenue FY17 117�3 - 117�3 FY18 125�7 - 125�7 FY19 135�7 - 135�7 117�3 125�7 135�7 FY17 FY18 EBITDA FY19 FY20 137�5 - 137�5 3�5 141�0 FY21 144�3 0�3 144�6 (0�1) 144�5 FY22 151�8 0�3 152�1 152�1 FY23 157�2 4�3 161�5 3�0 164�5 FY23 % 4% n�m 6% “CAGR FY17-23” 5% n�m 5% 8% 6% FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY23 % “CAGR Equity Wealth Pre-abnormal Abnormal / discontinued operations Total 0�8 0�8 0�8 8�4 8�4 8�4 7�2 7�2 7�2 13�6 13�6 3�5 17�1 14�8 (0�1) 14�7 (2�2) 12�5 13�8 (0�2) 13�6 (4�6) 9�0 15�0 0�7 15�7 (2�7) 13�0 Note: Wealth includes impact of Enva acquisition FY17-23” 63% n�m 64% 9% n�m 16% 45% 59% Look Through EBITDA was up 45% to $13.0m. This performance was primarily driven by gains in our well- established Equity division which rebounded from the impact of the construction shut-down, and a small (but welcome) contribution from our newly established Wealth division. Since our first consolidated accounts for FY17 were prepared as part of our IPO process, Look Through EBITDA has now grown at a CAGR of 59%. 11 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au While we regard revenue as less important than profit (as the saying goes: “revenue is vanity while profit is sanity”), Look Through Revenue grew 8% to a new high of $164.5m, a CAGR of 6% since FY17. TIP Equity TIP Equity is our private equity operations. Established in 2012, Equity forms the bulk of our business and is led by Dean Robinson. Look Through revenue grew by 4% to $157.2m, and Look Through EBITDA grew by 9% to $15.0m, driven primarily by significant growth in East Coast Traffic Control (ECT) and Automation Group (AG). East Coast Traffic Control (ECT) (100% owned) grew revenue by 98% and EBITDA by 209% in FY23. Led by Greg Jeckeln, ECT continues to grow its reputation as the traffic controller of choice for regional Australia: with customers from the South Western Slopes region in New South Wales to Cairns now benefiting from their best- in-class service. For the first time, this year ECT’s profit exceeded the purchase price we paid for the business, a testament to the remarkable efforts of the outstanding leadership. My congratulations go to the wonderful team who continue to take this business from strength to strength. Automation Group 12 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Automation Group (100% owned), grew revenue by 103% and EBITDA by 316%. When we acquired Automation Group in FY21, I wrote that “Integrating Automation Group increases our technical abilities in the fast-growing industries of automation, artificial intelligence, robotics and remote management” – and with the adoption of automation and artificial intelligence accelerating, the value that AG provides is increasing rapidly. The challenge for the team led by Graham Nisbet is capitalizing on the many opportunities ahead of them. TIP Wealth TIP Wealth is our advisory, funds management and investment banking business, focused on using the Group’s insights and networks to deliver superior client outcomes. The wealth division operates in Australia and the United Kingdom, and provides a platform for substantial growth. The division is led by Michael Baragwanath and acts as manager or trustee for $215m in funds under management (FUM), and as an advisor for a further $1.1b of funds under advice (FUA)*. Wealth earns revenues in four ways: • Education fees, comprising a monthly fee paid by participants in our programs; • Advisory fees, usually comprising a small retainer and a much larger success fee; • Operation fees, usually determined as a small proportion of funds under management (FUM), paid to cover the provision of trustee, custodial and administrative functions; and • Performance fees, usually linked to outperformance relative to a high-water mark or industry benchmark. Operation fees tend to be small and regular (usually less than 150 basis points (bps) annually of FUM). Corporate advisory and performance fees are irregular (in that they depend on success and are paid only upon achieving results at the end of some pre-determined period) but can be significant (often 300 to 500 bps of total deal size in the case of advisory, and 1,500 to 2,000 bps of outperformance in the case of performance fees). TIP Wealth delivered Look Through revenue of $4.3m, and Look Through EBITDA of $0.7m for its first year of operations, a fantastic achievement given the time, distraction and costs of establishing operations during the year. Of particular note, our flagship Conscious Investor (wholesale) and Teaminvest Access (retail) funds delivered after-fee returns to investors of 22.9% and 11.5% respectively for the year: a testament to the continued power of disciplined value investing. *Includes Enva 13 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Statutory Comprehensive Income (SCI) Unlike Look Through results, which are compiled on a proportional ownership (i.e. operating) basis, SCI is calculated in accordance with the Australian accounting standards in force at any time. It encompasses consolidation accounting where we control a business, equity accounting where we own a substantial share and have significant influence (typically between 20% and 50%), and investment accounting where we don’t have significant influence (typically less than 20%). While SCI is the official published result of the Group, shareholders should be aware of its limitations when using it to understand operating performance.

During our comparison period (FY22) the Group experienced one-off abnormal impacts from the Sydney coronavirus construction shut-down and its flow on effects. If you would like more information, greater detail can be found in the FY22 CEO letter. Discontinued operations Over the year it became apparent that some of our smaller investments were being hampered by the governance, reporting and administrative burden of being part of a larger listed group. To free management up to grow, and to allow our divisional teams to focus on our more significant portfolio companies, we chose to close or divest stakes in some of our smaller operations during FY23. The net effect of these closures, disposals and divestments was a $2.7m reduction in profit during the year. Gold’s Gym (part of Colour Capital) 16 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Economic moats: the path to higher profits In his 2007 letter to shareholders, Warren Buffett wrote: “A truly great business must have an enduring ‘moat’ that protects excellent returns on invested capital. The dynamics of capitalism guarantee that competitors will repeatedly assault any business ‘castle’ that is earning high returns.” What stops them simply walking into your castle and taking your lunch are the moats of the business. Just like when a medieval castle was attacked, the wider, deeper and better maintained the moat is, the more protection it affords. Types of moats All moats come in one of four guises: 1. A function of the structure of your industry that prevents new competitors entering the market (we call this a Barrier Moat); 2. An identifiable difference in product or service that your customers, suppliers or employees consider materially better than that offered by your competitors (we call this an Excellence Moat); 3. A process, system or piece of intellectual property that allows your company to deliver a comparable product or service in a way that costs you substantially less than your competitors (we call this an Efficiency Moat); or 4. A process, system or piece of intellectual property that allows your company to deliver a comparable product or service significantly faster than your competitors (we call this a Speed Moat). Experience shows that businesses which understand their moats, and consistently work to improve them, end up with an incredible competitive advantage. “businesses which understand their moats, and consistently work to improve them, end up with an incredible competitive advantage” 17 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Identifying moats To work out whether a business has a moat, ask three questions. 1. Which of the four categories does this specific characteristic fit? 2. Are customers prepared to pay more for it? Or does the company get better supply or more from employees because of it? 3. Would it be hard for competitors to replicate? If the answer isn’t yes to all three, then it either isn’t a moat or it needs a lot of dredging! “It is far better to What to do when you have identified a moat develop one raging Mississippi around your castle, than a bunch of small streams that can be leapt without notice” If you are an investor, the presence of strong and lasting moats is a powerful leading indicator for performance. So too for executives running a business. But where an investor need only identify the moat, and monitor that it remains in place, an executive must go further. Identification is only the start of their work. Just as a castle moat without constant attention would quickly silt-up or (worse) become dangerous for the defenders as a hive of mosquitoes and disease; so too will an economic moat quickly cease to provide protection, or become a weakness for competitors to exploit, if executives don’t constantly work to enhance it. Steps companies can take to enhance their moats include: • Ensuring all decision makers in the business understand what the moats are and why they are important; • Regularly checking to see that competitors haven’t found a way to breach the moat (or copy it); • Setting aside regular time and resources to continuously improve moats; and • Ensuring that a system is in place to stop inadvertent decisions from eroding moats. 18 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Developing strong moats requires trade-offs It is almost impossible for a business to maintain moats from more than one category simultaneously. To consistently maintain or develop a moat, the business must make trade-offs: speed for excellence, or excellence for efficiency, or speed for barriers. Businesses that try to develop moats in multiple categories tend to end up with none! It is far better to develop one raging Mississippi around your castle, than a bunch of small streams that can be leapt without notice. As an investor be wary of businesses who claim to have a deep moat in every area: either their ego is defying reality, or maintaining board focus must be extremely difficult. Our moats TIP’s key moats fall into the “better” category: they enable us to provide an objectively better product or service than competitors. For the perspective of the Group, we have three customer types: • Founders of SMEs looking to sell their business to us; • Investors in our funds; and • Self-directed analysts, mentors and advisors that contribute to our network (TI Members and Selected Shareholders). All other categories of customer fall into the respective division or portfolio company and are managed at that level. Our core Group moats are: 1. Philosophy – TIP’s unique philosophy enables us to make better and faster decisions. Sticking to our philosophy provides a differentiated market offer and ensures replicability of long-run compound returns. It is the core ingredient in driving fund outperformance and attracting the Network. 2. Insight – TIP’s focus on education attracts a better calibre of contributor and generates better insights. These insights are captured by our fund managers and executives to deliver better products, services and returns. 3. Network– TIP’s network of 500+ self-directed analysts and 80+ mentors and advisors create better insights and opens more opportunities. It is the base from which we generate outperformance, referrals of potential acquisitions, fund investors and Wealth clients. 4. Full Service – TIP’s full-service offer enables the value derived from our philosophy, insights, and network to be monetised more efficiently. It allows us to capture greater share of wallet from existing customers, and makes it easier to acquire new customers. 19 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Below is a diagram that shows how our moats interact to delight our customers and provide a distinct competitive advantage.

Year ahead In my FY22 letter I wrote: “FY23 promises to deliver significant growth. The expansion of our geographical footprint, our increase in financial services offerings, and the continued mentorship and development of our talented Portfolio Company management, positions TIP Group strongly for the next twelve months.” Our results for FY23 have been pleasing, especially as we end the year with a strong core of divisional and portfolio company leadership in place. Our goals for FY24 are simply to continue to focus on the three things that (to paraphrase Warren Buffett) “matter most”: 1. Continually delighting customers; 2. Eliminating unnecessary costs; and 3. Innovating to do the first two better. As we expand further into Wealth, we expect it to deliver an unfair advantage to our Equity businesses. While it may take a while for Wealth to deliver results on the scale that Equity already does (it took ten years for Equity to get here!), I am confident that as our wealth and investment banking operations grow – guided by our Teaminvest methodology of Conscious Investing – they will become an increasingly important part of our business. As Warren and Charlie put it so succinctly: “We are better investors because we are business people; and better business people because we are investors”. “[Our] moats... enable us to provide an objectively better product or service than competitors” 21 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au A final word If you are excited by our noble purpose, and would like to participate in our unique organisation, please apply to become a Selected Shareholder. The knowledge you bring, and the value you add, accelerates our growth. Existing Selected Shareholders, and those considering becoming a Selected Shareholder, will be pleased that a clearer distinction is now made between those in possession of inside information and those participating in analysis, mentorship and development. This simplifies when you need (or don’t need) approval to trade, and expands your trading windows. A copy of the updated terms can be found on our website.

Our Philosophy 1. GUIDANCE FOR SHAREHOLDERS 1�1� Our Noble Purpose drives decisions We believe businesses perform best when they exist for more than just making a profit. It is why we started TIP, and why we developed our unique Selected Shareholder model. Our noble purpose, mission and vision are core to who we are and what we do. They are: Noble purpose: Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations Mission: We invest the wealth and experience of successful people to mentor and grow the next generation of business leaders, thereby enhancing the legacy of all. Vision: To build a society where the knowledge and wealth we accumulate over a lifetime isn’t lost, forcing the next generation to learn (and earn) it all again. We will never take an action contrary to our noble purpose. We will always consider investing in ways that enhance our capacity to achieve our noble purpose: even if doing so comes at a short-term cost. 1�2� Share price vs intrinsic value Time is enemy of poor businesses, and the friend of good businesses. Many years of research by Dr John Price (and then Teaminvest) have proven this truism over and over. Given sufficient time, share prices must tend towards the formula “Price = Earnings * P/E ratio”. Internally, we refer to this identity as the Conscious Investor Pricing Formula (CIP Formula). P/E ratios (the multiple investors are prepared to pay for every dollar of profit generated) can fluctuate wildly for days, weeks, months or even years. However, over an economic cycle they will (by definition) gravitate towards the market average. In Australia this has usually been around 3x-6x for a private company and 15x-20x for a listed company. Automation Group 23 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au As P/E ratios are mean reverting, the only way to grow share price in the long-term is through increasing earnings. Any business that grows earnings will, over time, see a corresponding increase in share price and value. For this reason we measure, reward and focus our executives on growing earnings. We have no rewards based on share price, P/E ratio or “market reputation”. We have no interest in incentivising behaviour that encourages short-termism. This means we risk having our share price deviate from intrinsic value as we spend our focus on profits not media exposure or ‘creating momentum’. If we could have one wish about our share price it is this: that at any time it accurately reflects the intrinsic value of our company as merited by the path of our long-term earnings, or the sum of the value of the great businesses we own. 1�3� Diversification Diversification reduces risks and improves returns. We hold investments across a portfolio of companies in different industries and geographies to create diversification. Whilst this means we are exposed to the risk of having individually underperforming assets, or accounting impairments, in any specific period, over time we expect it will provide better returns to shareholders at lower risk. Raw Energy (part of Colour Capital) 24 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. 1�4� Accounting impairments vs economic value Economic goodwill is a value that flows over time. Every action that delights customers and increases their willingness to pay, enhances economic goodwill: creating moats and increasing returns. Every action that disappoints customers reduces their willingness to pay and ‘impairs’ economic goodwill, weakening moats and reducing returns. In contrast, accounting goodwill is a static measure reflecting the intangible assets of a business at the time it is acquired. Accounting goodwill cannot be increased. It is generated not by delighting customers, developing patents, training staff or creating moats, but to balance a set of accounts at a specific point in time. This means our economic goodwill almost certainly exceeds accounting goodwill. When we make a great acquisition, we can never increase the amount at which it is held on our balance sheet. The moats may be stronger and the profits larger but there can be no increase in the value assigned to it on our balance sheet. In contrast, if an investment ever fails an impairment test (even if only due to short-term uncertainty), we will immediately reduce its carrying value by taking an accounting impairment. Over time we expect this means our balance sheet will substantially understate the true economic value of our business. 1�5� How we value TIP TIP is a regular acquirer of profitable, growing, businesses across multiple industries and sectors. Over the long- term we therefore expect that our shares will trade at a price that is: a. In line with the market average P/E multiple applied in the CIP Formula, reflecting our diversified holdings; and b. Higher than accounting “equity per share”, reflecting the disparity between economic and accounting goodwill. Where we consider our earnings for the purpose of the CIP Formula, we use what Warren Buffett calls “Look Through” earnings. Historically we have referred to this as our Segment or Proportional earnings. Look Through earnings differ from accounting profits as they include the proportional income of associated entities and exclude one-off gains and losses. For the ease of investors, we publish our Look Through earnings as part of the CEO report in each set of accounts. Accounting equity per share is available on our balance sheet without adjustment. 25 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 1�6� Returning capital to shareholders TIP predominantly owns and operates profitable and growing businesses. We also look to regularly expand our portfolio when great businesses become available at good prices. We therefore consider capital allocation in three steps: 1. What capital should be reinvested in our existing operations to deliver appropriately growing returns (Organic Investment); 2. What capital should be set aside for new acquisitions (Acquisitive Investment); 3. Where excess capital exists, how much should be returned to shareholders as a reward for the use of their funds (Distributions). When a Distribution is appropriate, we intend to provide it to shareholders by: • If our share price is lower than both the implied valuation using the CIP Formula and our equity per share, conducting an on-market acquisition of shares; • If our share price is higher than both the implied valuation using the CIP Formula and our equity per share, distributing an appropriately franked dividend; and • If the share price is neither higher nor lower than both valuation methods imply, at the discretion of the board. 1�7� Becoming a Selected Shareholder You can apply to have greater involvement in our company by being made a Selected Shareholder. Selected Shareholders are able to participate in our investment process and are invited to our twice-yearly strategy days. Top performing Selected Shareholders may also be asked to mentor an executive or join one of our committees. Being a Selected Shareholder is intellectually stimulating and gives you greater insight into our business. It also lets you participate in our noble purpose of transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. You can apply to be a Selected Shareholder by filling out the form on our website. 26 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. 2. GUIDANCE FOR PORTFOLIO BOARDS 2�1� Introduction For most investments we make, we have board representation. This section provides guidance for our portfolio boards. We make it public because we believe all shareholders should know (and can benefit) from better understanding how we operate our investments. Our approach draws on how Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger engage with Berkshire Hathaway’s private businesses to grow profits organically and via bolt-on acquisitions. Our portfolio company boards are selected by, and report to, the relevant head of division and Group CEO. 2�2� The role of a portfolio board Portfolio boards have five requisites for which they are appointed and against which their performance is judged. These are: 1. Mentor executives; 2. Allocate capital within the business; 3. Strengthen moats and reduce risks; 4. Ensure compliance with all laws, regulations and governance requirements; and 5. Deliver regular dividends to TIP. Teaminvest 27 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au The best boards are those who regularly examine and improve upon these objectives. Mentoring executives: Our portfolio boards are responsible for mentoring executives. Mentorship is distinct from managing: it involves guiding, educating and encourage executives to think differently to enhance their skill set and grow the business in a visionary manner. Executives are responsible for delivering monthly results and, if a board becomes concerned that executives are not delivering appropriately, they should immediately notify the relevant division head so we can look to enhance or replace the executive team. Board members should never act as quasi-executives. Allocating capital: Portfolio boards are responsible for capital allocation within the business up to the amounts set out in our Limits of Authority policy. Capital can be used in three main ways: funding organic growth; funding bolt-on acquisitions to increase profits; and returning capital to TIP via dividends. We expect all our investments to deliver a combination of increased value and attractive dividends over time. Strengthening moats and reducing risks: One of the key responsibilities of a board is to continually seek ways to strengthen moats and reduce risks. Strengthened moats allow the business to increase profitability and grow faster. Reduced risks ensure that profits and dividends can continue to grow 28 Graham Lusty Trailers Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. without undue stress. The simplest way to reduce risk is to improve the Break-Even Safety Margin (BESM), and one of the key tasks of a board is to ensure that the BESM continues to increase over time. Ensuring compliance: One of the biggest risks to any business is damage to reputation or the advent of litigation. Ensuring a culture of compliance to the highest possible standards helps to protect each portfolio company and the Group as a whole. As the saying goes: “it takes a lifetime to make a reputation, and one oversight to ruin it”. Delivering regular dividends to TIP: When we acquire a share of a business we do so on the expectation it will deliver returns to our shareholders for the use of their funds and the effort they put in as mentors. The best proof of success of any portfolio company and its board is delivering on this expectation. 2�3� Preparation before becoming a board member Application: If you have experience or wisdom to offer, please make your interest known to us. Following a formal selection process, we may appoint you to the board of one of our portfolio companies. When appointed, you serve at the pleasure of the company and can be removed or replaced at any time. Compliance obligations: Board members are treated as insiders. Becoming a board member requires adherence to TIP’s investment philosophy, confidentiality obligations and securities trading policy. Desirable experience: Whilst there is no set formula for a great board member, candidates should have run a larger business (in terms of staff, revenue and profits) than the business on which they serve. This enables them to better mentor executives and grow the company. Board members should enjoy thinking about visionary opportunities as this is one of the key roles of a mentor. An understanding of accounting, corporate law and governance are valuable but not a prerequisite. Prior participation in SMaRT and Due Diligence processes: Potential board members should have previously participated in our proprietary Strengths, Moats, Risks and Trustworthiness (SMaRT) and due diligence processes. This enables you to better understand our philosophy and the ways you can add value. We consider it advantageous for board members to have participated in the SMaRT and due diligence process for the business to which they are appointed. Doing so provides greater understanding of the moats to enhance (to drive profits), the future risks to mitigate or avoid (to avoid or minimise losses) and the personalities involved. If a potential board member has not participated in the specific SMaRT and due diligence, we will usually require them to attend board meetings as an observer before we confirm their appointment. 29 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au SMaRT and Due Diligence Reports: Before their first board meeting, a new member should review the SMaRT and due diligence reports. These contain analysis of the rationale behind our investment, and the moats and risks identified. Knowledge of these is a pre-requisite to adding value. Terms of Acquisition: Board members should ensure they understand the key acquisition terms. These differ by company and may include performance hurdles, conditional payments, remuneration packages, debt funding arrangements, vendor financing and succession plans. Boards should periodically review progress against the terms of acquisition and keep TIP informed. Conscious Investor, TIPBars and TIPTool: Board members must be familiar with our proprietary financial analysis (Conscious Investor), board reporting (TIPBars), and financial modelling (TIPTool) software. Conscious Investor Icon Metal 30 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. underpins how we analyse and value investments. TIPBars provides standardised financial reporting utilising the Conscious Investor methodology with built-in audit functionality. TIPTool facilitates the quick and easy modelling of alternative paths for substantially increasing profits. If substantially increasing profits were easy, executives would already have done so. Our three proprietary software tools allow board and management to have an accurate and robust discussion about any important decision. 2�4� Common learnings Our boards have experienced the following common learnings: 1. You can’t have valuable meetings without best-practice financial reporting: Many entrepreneurs are wonderfully successful through inspiring and motivating their staff to work ‘miracles’ and their clients to pay highly for their products. However, many see financial record-keeping and reporting as a distraction. Since our formation in 2012, we have learned that it is impossible for boards to add value without the benefit of best-practice financial reporting. Boards must address this concern as one of their highest priorities by either: a. Encouraging the portfolio company to hand financial reporting over to TIP head office: ideally as an interim measure while the business enhances its systems and recruits a highly educated professional to lead the function. This allows executives board to focus on strategy without being distracted about the preparation, and accuracy, of financial reporting and the six-monthly audit process. It is also likely to be financially beneficial due to the costs saved by harnessing group economies of scale. Portfolio companies who were not already audited for a number of years, or who don’t already have a highly- educated, multi-disciplinary finance team benefit most from this approach; or b. Showing how best practice record keeping, reporting and discussions can increase profits and enhance decision making: enhancing company internal structures and creating an environment where the board can encourage profitable action based on forward looking projections. This approach is best available to portfolio companies who already have robust audited systems in place with a highly- educated CFO leading discussions. Boards in this situation can immediately focus on TIPBars and TIPTool, confident that the analysis is meaningful for strategic discussion. 31 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 2. True leadership rarely extends below one or two key executives: Medium-sized businesses rarely have top quality executives below the C-level. This is simply a function of size: it is tough to recruit supremely talented people in smaller organisation. For the business to grow, or the founder to transition, a key requirement is attracting the right kind of talent into the right roles. In particular we have found that: a. Existing employees rarely have the drive or skill required to step up to C-level in an SME. This is a function of self-selection: ambitious and talented employees rarely remain in a business where they cannot see opportunities for rapid advancement. In smaller businesses this career path caps out by about the age of 30, so most supremely talented staff either move on to bigger companies or remain only if their ambition has declined. With ambition being one of the three key requirements for leadership success (the other two being passion and intelligence), fishing in the existing pool is likely to be unrewarding, and may well be why the founder was attracted by TIP’s noble purpose in the first place; b. When external hires fail, they tend to do so because motivations are misunderstood. One of the great hiring fallacies is that we look to hire people with already demonstrated experience in a role of the same size, in the same industry, as the one for which they are applying. This is a mistake: why would a high-achiever be motivated to join you if the role and responsibility you offer is no better than what they already have? Instead, the best external hires tend to be those who are motivated by either: i. Joining a larger company from a smaller competitor at the same level, increasing their scope to develop and lead; ii. Getting a promotion to join your firm from a competitor, providing a career opportunity not otherwise available in the short-term; iii. Changing industry to better align with their personal values, for which they may accept a similar or lower role; or iv. Moving geographically due to family or personal motivations which may entice them to accept a similar or lower role. c. As we get older we forget just how young we were when we first took a leadership role. Most successful CEOs got their first leadership break in their 20’s, and by their 30’s were running large teams. Yet when we look for leadership hires these same 20 and 30 year olds (as we once were) appear 32 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. brash, uncultured and inexperienced compared to our peers. This plays into two traps: firstly it reduces the likelihood of hiring the best talent (a supremely talented 30 year old passed over for a role today is probably running something far too large by 40 for you to get them back); and secondly it means missing out on the well-documented fact that ambition and passion decline from middle-age onwards. Whilst a 50 year old is likely to know more than a 25 year old, they are unlikely to be prepared to throw themselves in with the ambition and passion required to drive transformational growth… and they are certainly unlikely to do so if they still report upwards to another executive! 3. Distractions kill. A year may elapse between when a portfolio company first approaches a broker to market their business, to when we finalise contracts and appoint a board. Sales and profits may become secondary to ‘doing the deal’. Working with a board may also initially distract executives. Together this can cause revenue and profits to disappoint. Disappointment will continue unless (and until) the board once again makes driving profits the core focus of executives. Kitome 33 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 4. Vendor remorse is normal but must be addressed head-on. It is natural that after parting with part of their baby, founders and executives may wonder if they made the right decision. If there is more than one senior executive, one may feel regret more keenly, causing internal friction. Boards should address this head on by discussing the issue and immediately working on creating a company wide Noble Purpose, Mission, Vision and Big Hairy Audacious Goal. By setting these as a team early, passion can be harnessed to drive results and overcome fear about the new structure. A clear path to “growing their baby together” is the fastest and most effective way of motivating executives and giving comfort that they made the right decision to partner with TIP. 5. Focus board time on delivering the Noble Purpose, not working on the day to day. Executives working ‘in the business’ rarely have time to think in a visionary way ‘outside the business’. Day-to-day issues keep them busy and are most likely to be reported to the board. Boards should not involve themselves in day-to-day business and instead should constantly work on focusing executives on the steps needed to achieve the company’s Noble Purpose. Doing so will make meetings more productive and drive double digit growth. Discussions will focus on major opportunities, new moats and mitigating risks, not the daily grind. A board which finds itself involved in day-to-day decision making is doing a disservice. 2�5� Interacting with executives Learn what ‘makes them tick’: Before joining a board, directors should meet with the other board members and senior executives informally to learn ‘what makes them tick’. It is easier to mentor and build profits with people we understand. Meeting in an informal setting allows a prospective board member to see what interests and cultural values they have in common with the executives (critical for mentoring and driving profit) and their prospective fellow directors (critical for defining long term goals and maintaining passion). You should also use this opportunity to find out more about the business, discuss moats and risks identified during the SMaRT and Due Diligence, and to find out what has already been done to strengthen moats and eliminate, mitigate or manage risks. With a good starting point a board member is certain to add more value than coming in blind and learning on the job. Understanding the business: It takes time for any outsider to understand the most important Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that drive profits. Executives with a history of profitable leadership in the business should already know what is most important to measure: even if they may not always communicate it with clarity. Boards would therefore be wise to ask lots of “Why” questions. “Why did we do X?”, “Why do you consider Y worth 34 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. measuring?”, “Why do you think this is a good or bad idea?”. Asking lots of Why questions (instead of What or How questions) is the fastest way to build an intuitive understanding of the key drivers of the business. Board members need intuitive understanding to better mentor the CEO and make fast decisions. Noble Purpose and long-term goals: It is the responsibility of executives to deliver a profitable business every month. Providing they are doing so, the key responsibility of a board becomes mentoring and developing executives to achieve the Noble Purpose and long-term goals of the organisation. Boards should therefore spend most of their time with executives focused on exploring how the company can strengthen moats, reduce risks and deliver the Noble Purpose. GJ Gardner Homes (part of Colour Capital) 35 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Executive remuneration: Executive remuneration is set by TIP and follows our principles of handsomely rewarding performance whilst penalising failure. Board members should be aware that executives are remunerated with three components: • A low base salary, of sufficient size to keep the lights on but small enough that a poor performing executive will quickly look for a job elsewhere; • A monthly bonus paid for every month that is profitable, to incentivise executives to design and operate the business in such a way that it never loses money; and • A share of the audited NPAT of the business, providing an outsized reward for stellar performance. Any changes in remuneration is therefore linked entirely to performance. Boards should be aware of this, and take actions that encourage the executives to achieve their monthly bonus every month (e.g. focusing on BESM), whilst ensuring a path to meaningful long term profit growth. In this way both the executive and TIP win together. Succession planning: Risks associated with key management personnel are front-of-mind when the board interacts with management. This risk scores highly in every SMaRT. Boards should ameliorate this risk by encouraging executives to delegate and to develop an executive team. Within a few years of investment in, the board and CEO should have identified an appropriate successor for an emergency - or should the CEO retire. Automation Group 36 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Growth planning: Boards add value when they assist founders to develop a team of talented reports who enjoy doing what the CEO enjoys least. This frees up the time of our CEOs for strategic thinking to add value in conjunction with their board, rather than being immersed in day-to-day management. Focus on BESM: A powerful way of reducing risks is by increasing the gap between sales revenue and the break-even point of the business. This increases the BESM (Break-Even Safety Margin). Replacing fixed costs with variable costs increases BESM and reduces risk. Focusing on increasing BESM is a key hallmark of a successful business. Size of companies and expected volatility: Missteps by boards or management of SMEs can wipe out short- term profits, while good decisions can hugely lift short-term profits. Even when long-term profits are excellent, short-term profits may vary between disappointing and enthusing. Experience shows us that the most effective way to reduce volatility is by increasing BESM. Trustworthiness: It is a pre-requisite that the executives who manage the business are trustworthy. If a board member is ever concerned that this is changing, they should inform TIP immediately and in the strongest possible terms. Frequency of board meetings: Board meetings should be held monthly. Meetings should be face-to-face with an option to join by teleconference. If board meetings are taking full days, chances are the board is becoming involved in issues best left to management. A week prior to the board meeting, each CEO should provide the monthly TIPBars financial report plus a short explanation on any issues on which they seek input. Helping our portfolio companies grow: Boards should inspire, mentor, and act as a sounding board for executives. They should regularly ask themselves three questions: “What visionary ideas can we suggest to substantially grow profits?” and “How can we help make the CEO’s role simpler?” and “How can we assist the CEO make faster and more profitable decisions?” Mindful they have sold ‘part of their baby’: When they join TIP, founders have just sold ‘part of their baby’. Nothing will demotivate them faster, and destroy the value of our investment quicker, than giving the impression ‘the baby is ugly and needs cosmetic surgery’. Financial terminology: Executives of medium-sized businesses can appear unsophisticated in the use of financial terminology or reporting procedures. Fortunately, financial terminology and detailed reporting are not a pre- requisite for building a great niche business. However, they do become more important as the business grows. This is why we developed TIPBars. Using a common tool that focuses on the most important drivers of profit allows meetings to focus on “what can we do to build free cash and profits”. Test your ideas in TIPTool. 37 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Instructing management: The board as a whole may instruct executives. Individual board members should never do so. 2�6� Capital Management and Board Strategies Dividends and cash buffers: The boards of our portfolio companies have a responsibility to return part of profits as free cash to the Company via periodic dividends. This is covered in detail in the Group Distribution Policy and is usually set at 50% of net profit after tax. Boards should be familiar with this policy, and in particular its focus on the mix between paying down debt, reinvesting for growth and paying dividends. Bolt-on acquisitions or disposals of divisions: Each board should continually monitor their markets for a substantial increase of profitability via a bolt-on acquisition. Conversely, they may conclude that the business would be more profitable after the disposal of an unwanted division. Such major capital allocation decisions should be referred to TIP for assistance. More capital or debt: It is our philosophy that debt increases risk. Boards should avoid raising debt unless it is for highly profitable organic growth or accretive acquisitions. If debt is needed, it must first be approved by TIP. Focus on high margin revenue: Market share is vanity, profits are sanity and free cash flow is reality! We acquire niche businesses that make higher profits and generate more cash from increasing margins, than from chasing market share. This can be quickly tested using TIPTool. Good strategy often involves turning away low-margin business. If a business is short of cash, the chances are the margins are too low. In niche businesses, it’s often easier to increase value through increasing margins than increasing size. Moats and outside circumstances: ‘Circumstances beyond our control’ are often blamed for a profit downturn. Boards should look beyond this and seek ways the company can increase profits even in a downturn. If profits disappoint, and board members can’t immediately find a way to fix this, raise it with TIP quickly, so we can brainstorm ways of benefiting from adversity – whether real or perceived. Outside influences can often be overcome by a concerted effort to strengthen moats. Deal with causes not symptoms: Niche businesses may experience cash-flow challenges from time to time. Boards and executives must strengthen the businesses by dealing with the cause of cash-flow problems, rather than dealing with symptoms. TIPTool can be useful for this. Eliminating causes of cash-flow challenges can add huge value to any investment. 38 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Leverage technology: Technology, data, on-line connectivity and AI are rapidly changing the world. Every business will be affected. Those that remain stuck in the past find competitors able to offer similar outcomes cheaper or faster, or superior products at the same prices. Those that embrace ‘modernisation’ benefit via higher margins. Boards should continually seek to modernise everything our companies do to stay ahead, and to improve margins against the competition. The outcomes of any costs and margin improvement can easily be checked in TIPTool. Use our tools: TIPBars and TIPTool allow the board to model the various alternative paths for substantially increasing profits. TIPReps should frequently use TIPTool to strengthen the business by testing the likely increased profits from the choices of increased sales, decreased fixed or variable costs, and increased prices. No path is likely to be easy, but choosing the best path to profit is made easier using TIPTool. Icon Metal 39 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 2�7� Culture Skills available: An incredible range of skills and experiences are available from Selected Shareholders. Boards should regularly contact TIP to seek advice about any challenges they face. We are all in it together: Boards of profitable businesses work as a non-hierarchical team. To maximise profits, board members should ensure a culture of open, frank and enjoyable cooperation between executives (who know the business very well), non-executives (who know business principles well) and TIP. Serving while you add value: Directors should stay on a board while they remain enthusiastic about the business and feel they can help deliver excellent returns. When considering whether to serve another year on the same board, you should assess how you have added value to date, and how you can add further value in the coming year. Comfort with executives: Boards and executives must get along well professionally to be successful. If a director doesn’t have a strong working relationship with the executive they should inform TIP and seek to be replaced. If a director becomes uncomfortable with the conduct of an executive they should immediately inform TIP so that we can investigate. Making improvements: Businesses are rarely able to implement more than one ‘improvement’ at a time. A board that successfully implements one substantial profit improvement in any half-year has provided excellent value. Asking a CEO to implement several ‘improvements’ simultaneously, risks overwhelming executives and almost certainly ensuring the ‘improvements’ won’t happen. East Coast Traffic Control 40 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Cash flow is king: The value of a business is in the cash it generates. If the business is paying attractive dividends to TIP, and earnings are growing, the board and executives are doing an excellent job. However, if this is not happening, then board and management are letting us down. If the board can’t see a way to deliver attractive dividends, they should request help or request to be replaced. 2�8� Reporting to TIP Division head: Portfolio company boards report to the relevant head of division. This senior TIP executive will meet with each board regularly to assess performance and provide advice. Quarterly assessments: Each company is required to fill out a quarterly board self-assessment sheet (focused on the performance of the board) and a Quarterly Traction Report (focused on the performance of the company towards it’s Noble Purpose and growth targets). Strategy Committee and Annual reports: Each company must prepare an annual report, to be presented to the Strategy Committee. Whilst annual reports are not widely distributed, they are an important strategic tool that disciplines each company to regularly set and track results against their targets. They are also invaluable should we one day decide to raise capital, divest, or spin-out one of our portfolio companies. Strategy days: Twice yearly, boards and executives are required to attend Strategy Days. Each company is expected to develop their plans for one or more of the four ways for delivering shareholder value: 1. Maximising half-yearly dividends; 2. Organic Growth or a new division using the current assets of the business; 3. Bolt-on acquisitions or growth that may require additional capital at attractive returns; 4. Working with another portfolio company to enhance the returns from each. Gold’s Gym (part of Colour Capital) 41 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 3. GUIDANCE FOR EXECUTIVES 3�1� The role of executives Executives have four roles. These are: 1. Deliver monthly profits; 2. Manage the cash; 3. Develop a great culture; and 4. Increase BESM. Monthly profits: Good businesses are designed to rarely make a monthly loss. Great businesses never do. The primary role of an executive is to ensure that the business is designed and operated such that monthly profits are expected and delivered without fail. Executives should seek guidance from TIP if they are ever unsure how to do this. Managing cash: Cash flow is the lifeblood of any business. Great executives look at ways of not only growing profits but enhancing cash flow. Building a healthy cash buffer ensures executives can sleep easy knowing that they are protected from unexpected headwinds. It also allows for healthy dividends which is the fastest way for executives to gain promotion or receive a pay rise. Conversely, an executive that regularly needs to “mine shareholders wallets” for cash will soon find themselves without a role. Culture and mentoring: Just as it’s the role of boards to mentor executives, it is the role of executives to mentor their staff. Good executives look to constantly improve and educate their team: either by enhancing existing skills, or hiring high achievers. A focus on mentorship and the development of a high-performance culture is key to making the role of an executive less stressful, and it is the simplest long-term path to higher earnings. Increasing BESM: The most effective way for executives to increase profits whilst reducing risk is by increasing BESM. Building a culture of understanding BESM allows younger managers to provide ideas to enhance the business. Those executives who regularly increase BESM are likely to be offered larger roles within TIP. 3�2� Our cultural values Cultural values are the qualities we want reflected in the behaviour of our organisation. While each operating division will have cultural values unique to it, we expect all executives to also exhibit the values of the Group. Living our cultural values is the strongest lead indicator of achieving our Noble Purpose of transferring knowledge and wealth between generations, and delivering enduring value for shareholders. 42 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. TIP’s cultural values are: • Never accept failure: we are the masters of our own destiny. When things don’t go according to plan we adjust and find a new path to achieving our goals. • Intuitively grasp margins, cash-flow and the power of BESM: we have an intuitive understanding of how our decisions will affect the economics of our business. When we make decisions, we do so with a clear plan to maintain or improve margins, cash-flow and BESM. • Always run towards the challenge: big challenges don’t scare us. We pull together to tackle big projects, and we always assist our colleagues in need. • Be comfortable making decisions quickly, with limited information: we understand the need to make decisions in real time with imperfect information. When we have enough information to act we do so promptly. Making timely decisions, and then adjusting them as new information comes to light, is what we are paid for. • Find opportunity in crises: crises and times of turbulence give rise to the best opportunities. When we tackle any problem, or make any investment, we go beyond just solving the immediate question. We always look for ways to gain long-term advantage. Kitome 43 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 3�3� Economic Moats are the Path to Higher Profits Economic moats: Businesses generate attractive returns when they build and maintain economic moats. During the SMaRT and Due Diligence, we assessed and scored the promising economic moats of the business. This list won’t be complete - some scores may not be accurate. Executives should discuss these moats with their board and make an accurate list at least every six months. Then they can continually seek ways to maintain and strengthen moats – and find ways to develop new ones. Test for economic moats: Warren Buffett tells the CEOs of his many businesses to frequently ask themselves: “Would we have to call a prayer meeting before increasing prices to our customers?” Ask yourself the same question. If the answer is ‘yes’ then you have not yet built strong economic moats. If the answer is ‘no’ then you can increase prices and be proud of the strong moats you have built. 3�4� Capital Management Capital allocation: A sure path to increasing profits is to allocate capital to the most profitable parts of the business. Minimise costs in those parts of the business that generate low profits or don’t directly generate income. For example, a good extra salesperson should generate more profit than cost, while larger premises often eat more profit than they generate. Property expense also adds risk since a mistake can be time consuming to undo. A mistake in hiring can be quickly reversed. Capital for growth: TIP can provide additional capital when you find opportunities to grow profit. When an opportunity offers outstanding returns (greater than 15% per annum), please inform us in a timely manner. Dividends matter: To make cash available for the most profitable opportunities, TIP looks to receive funds from our investments via dividends. These funds are then allocated to those who can use them best. If you have a profitable opportunity that requires investment, you should write a succinct business case for us. In this way, opportunities can be compared across the group and funds allocated to those offering the best returns. Fast action: The primary responsibility of a CEO is to look after cash and keep the business running profitably every month. Executives are expected to take immediate action should a portfolio company ever risk falling into a loss. Fast action to bring the business back to profit is always better than delaying for discussion. 44 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Capital for turnarounds: We have an aversion to providing capital to help a business out of difficulty. Getting into financial distress is a symptom of executives failing to develop an appropriate BESM, being blindsided by changes in their market, or a significant error in judgement. Only where executives can demonstrate a clear path to returning a business to profitability, and are prepared to agree to strict conditions around the use of cash, will funds be made available. Asking for cash to “save a business” is the largest indicator of an executive team that has failed. Whilst we understand that everyone may make mistakes, the decision to invest Group money to save a once profitable business is perhaps the most serious decision we can make. It is asking those who have performed well to slow down their growth (and therefore personal earnings) to help cover for someone else’s mistake. 3.5. Financial Reporting Financial reporting and TIPBars: The best financial reports help executives make large improvements in profits with the least effort. Before we invest, most executives use financial reports designed for accountants and the tax office. These focus on the past, but rarely point the way to increasing profits. We have developed TIPBars to improve profits with the least amount of work, while highlighting dangerous risks. TIPBars is produced every month and shows where each business is working well financially, where hidden risks may be lurking, and where financial improvements should be made. Break-even safety margin: TIPBars highlights the trend in Break-even Safety Margin (‘BESM’): whether the business is becoming less risky (as we prefer), or more risky (a dangerous trend). Should the trend show increasing risk, act immediately to reduce fixed expenses or increase margins. Easiest path to improve profits: TIPTool allows executives to quickly ascertain which levers can be pulled to most easily improve profits. When joining TIP, each business is required to provide general ledger data for the previous 12 months. This allows TIPBars and TIPTool to be implemented immediately. Used properly, TIPBars and TIPTool can add considerably to profit every year. Audits: Each portfolio company is required to participate in TIP’s regular audits. Rather than seeing this as an imposition, executives should see it as a way of learning how to better improve systems and processes to enhance future returns. What seems like a frustration at first can add profound value if used to address weaknesses in company systems. 45 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 3�6� Building a Stronger Executive Team Stronger executive team: TIP can help executives develop a stronger team. That way more can be achieved with less time, producing bigger profits and dividends and allowing executives to be more relaxed. The ‘perfect’ chief executive: It is virtually impossible to be the ‘perfect’ CEO. A perfect CEO would have expertise in leadership, production, general management, marketing, sales, finance, administration, accounting, people management and business management. In real life this doesn’t exist. Instead surround the CEO with quality executives who can add missing strengths. Why an executive team: CEOs of outstanding niche businesses live in a grueling combination of being the Chief ‘Enthusiasm’ Officer and the Chief ‘Operating’ Officer. As Enthusiasm Officer they must inspire their team to greatness and inspire their clients to provide a good margin for their wonderful work. As Operating Officer, they must ensure work is efficient, of the highest standard, and systems are scalable for doubling and tripling volume and profits. This is a grueling task and limits the growth of the organisation. East Coast Traffic Control 46 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. To grow further without burnout, the CEO must either have an outstanding Operating Officer to take off their shoulders much of the thinking about day-to-day business or a quality ‘Enthusiasm’ Officer to reduce their role of thinking about inspiring staff and customers to maximise profits. In choosing which to delegate first, choose the role they find less enjoyable. Once the business becomes larger, the company may need one of each reporting to the CEO. Functional executives: When a business grows at 20% per year, after 10 years it will be six times the size. To avoid executives having to work impossibly harder, the business eventually needs an executive (not simply a manager) to take responsibility for each functional area: production, marketing, sales, finance, administration and IT. Executives should act before they become overwhelmed: instead promote or recruit top talent to relieve some of the load and facilitate further expansion. Our aim should be to make the business more profitable and less stressful. Develop or recruit: Businesses develop a superior culture when they develop and promote internal candidates rather than recruiting externally. If the business has not had previous success with developing internal management, or hiring top external talent, do not despair. TIP is available to help. Replacing a successful CEO: If tempted to seek one person to take over from a successful CEO, including all the thinking they do about the business, ask two questions: “How easily will we find someone who can handle both roles of Chief Enthusiasm Officer and Chief Operating Officer?” and “If a candidate seems capable of handling everything superbly, why aren’t they running their own business – one at least as big and profitable as ours?” It is likely that we will need several outstanding executives to replace a successful CEO: one to provide enthusiasm; and one or more responsible for operations. Provided the board does this while the successful CEO is still engaged, they will have time to mould their thinking and ensure a smooth transition. 3�7� Continuing Roles and Responsibilities Continuing roles: As an executive, the role of profitably running the business remains largely unchanged after becoming part of the Group. Executives gain access to our tools, balance sheet, people and Selected Shareholders, but they are still responsible for the results of the business. TIP is there to help mentor and guide executives to grow the business: but executives are still responsible for ensuring results and will be judged accordingly. 47 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Reporting to a Board: Reporting to a board can be daunting for those not used to it. Executives should ask three questions before including anything in a report to their board: “Could input from the board be helpful?”, “Could this be financially material?” and “Could this provide an opportunity to substantially increase profits?” If the answer is “yes” to any one of the questions, include it in the agenda. If not, omit it. Continuous and immediate disclosure: A key principle of TIP, and the ASX, is that of continuous and immediate disclosure of all material information. This means that if executives become aware of anything that could have a material impact on the business they must immediately inform their board. Where the board agrees, they must immediately inform TIP who will determine if the item requires disclosure to the market. 3�8� Gaining most benefit from a board Using a board effectively: Executives derive most benefit from their board when they share half-formed ideas, major dilemmas and concerns, knowledge of their business and why they run it as they do. Well briefed, board members can arrange a host of free contacts with expertise the business could not otherwise access. Briefing the board: A week prior to the meeting, executives should provide a report which includes a short explanation of any issues on which they would like input, plus TIPBars and any other important items. If board meetings regularly take longer than half a day, executives have either not properly briefed the board or are involving them in matters best left to management. Forward looking discussion: Boards add most value when executives use TIPBars and TIPTool to provide a helicopter view of the past month and then provide forward looking key indicators to show where the business is heading. These include activity indicators driving sales or revenue in coming months; sales driving profits in coming months; and actions building moats to improve future margins. The board adds most value when focused on factors that improve these leading indicators. Questions at board meetings: Boards will ask challenging questions to identify where and how they can assist executives to generate higher cash profits. The better they understand the business, the more they can make valuable suggestions. If questions get into minutiae, say so: boards are best focused on big picture items that increase capital value. Thinking in a visionary way: Working with your board on questions like: “How could the business make larger profits without doing more work?” or “How could this business expand into other business or geographic areas?” or “How could this business combine with another TIP company to increase profits for both?” are most likely to deliver significant value. 48 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Governance: Governance is, and should be seen as, a powerful way to enhance performance. Good governance grows sustainable profits. To ensure good governance, work with TIP to develop a ‘governance checklist’. This should be discussed at the meeting following each calendar quarter. 3�9� Gaining most value from TIP Responsibility: Executives and board are responsible to TIP and our shareholders. When considering major decision, you should ask: “Will this increase the regular dividends we pay TIP?” If the answer is ‘no’, ask: “Will this increase the capital value of the business?” If the answer is still ‘no’, ask: “Will this strengthen an economic moat or reduce a risk?” If the answer is still ‘no’ ask: “Why are we considering this?” Quarterly reports: Each quarter, each portfolio company must present their board self-assessment, Quarterly Traction Report and Quarterly Employee Assessments to the relevant head of division. Use this opportunity to ask for contacts or assistance with any challenges you are facing. Strategy days: TIP holds half-yearly strategy days: one in February and the other after the conclusion of the financial year. Executives must attend the Strategy Days. During the day we will cover macro themes that can be used to increase profits, as well as ideas specific to your company. Value from other portfolio companies: TIP invests in a wide variety of businesses – all of them run by talented people. Portfolio companies should work together to generate increased profits. This can include being suppliers to each other, quoting together where a wider range of skill sets is needed, sharing executive or staff expertise, pooling marketing ideas, or combining to create a larger company with more depth of management. Economies of scale: Through TIP, each business has access to considerable buying power. This can save money on insurance, vehicle financing, accounting, legal costs and other services. If you are considering a merger, acquisition or divestment, TIP can help save substantial legal, accounting, secretarial, compliance and distribution costs. Education and personal development: TIP creates premium financial education content which we sell to external participants via Teaminvest, our Breakfast Series, and our My Financial Fitness joint venture. As important group members, TIP executives are invited to participate in these programs. We expect participation will enhance your business knowledge, improve your decision making, assist in personal development and provide networking opportunities. 49 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au 3�10� Delivering value Benchmark profitability: Portfolio companies should be among the most profitable businesses: they were founded by talented executives and have a shareholder that can provide access to expertise and capital. Over time, our Portfolio Companies should aim to achieve Net Profit Margins of 10% to 15% of revenue. Above 15% they should feel proud. Below 10% they are letting themselves down. Focus on building moats: Building economic moats enables businesses to earn more profits than competitors. To test whether a business has developed economic moats the board should ask: “Can we increase prices faster than inflation without having to call a prayer meeting?” If the answer is ‘yes’, then they have built at least one strong economic moat. If the answer is ‘no’, think: “How can we build at least one economic moat to increase our profit percentage?” Increasing margins or increasing sales: Niche businesses increase profits more via a small increase in margins than via a large increase in sales. Executives can use TIPTool to see the relative uplift in profits from increases in margins, increases in sales and reductions in costs. Test scenarios to find the fastest way to increase profits with the least additional work. Fixed versus variable expenses: The best businesses should never record a loss. Reduce the risk of losses by building the business around a higher proportion of variable expenses (which go up or down as sales revenue goes up or down) and a lower proportion of fixed expenses. Fixed expenses increase the risk of losses while reducing flexibility for growth. For fastest growth with lowest risk, minimise fixed costs by converting them to variable expenses. The world is changing fast: Technology, data, on-line connectivity and AI are changing the world. All businesses will be affected. Those stuck in the past will find competitors offering similar outcomes cheaper or faster, or superior products at the same prices. Those embracing ‘modernisation’ will thrive via higher margins. Modernise the business to stay ahead of the competition and improve margins. Use TIPTool to check the improved profit from higher margins after any planned ‘costs of modernisation’. Profiting from inflation: Inflation is both an opportunity and threat. Business inflation is generally above CPI. A business that doesn’t develop and maintain economic moats is hurt as input and labour costs rise before the business can increase prices. Businesses without moats grow weaker still. Some go broke. Executives can ensure their business thrives by strengthening existing moats and building new moats. This enables the business to dominate its industry by increasing prices faster than inflation, building a war chest, and seizing opportunities to acquire competitors. 50 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. Profit growth matters: When profits are growing quickly, the best employees can see opportunities for advancement and higher income. This motivates them to produce better quality work. When profits cease growing, the best staff seek employment elsewhere, staff quality goes down and output suffers. This makes it imperative that executives continue growing their profits. Sales team: To grow profits substantially, it is almost certain the business will need a dedicated sales team. Hire only those who are highly enthusiastic. Poor salespeople cost more than any profit they generate. The right salespeople generate far more profit than they cost. 3�11� Long Term Aims Long term aim: TIP invests for many years at a time. We aim to assist executives to grow profits and dividends attractively each year. For new executives, a substantial way of increasing wealth is by exchanging shares owned in an underlying business for shares in TIP. At the right exchange, this increases the value of both their shares and ours. It also improves access to finance, adds liquidity and makes it easier to buy competitors and dominate the industry. Succession planning: Whether or not executives plan to continue leading a business for many years, a major responsibility of all senior executives is to develop a top-quality leadership team. A quality executive team helps a business grow faster and ensures it is preserved should anything happen to senior executives. To reduce risk, the board should identify an emergency successor and ensure that key staff are aware of the decision so they can act quickly and with reduced impact if anything untoward occurs. Automation Group 51 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Expertise available: TIP and our Selected Shareholders are available to provide advice, inspiration, and suggestions for executives to build value beyond what would be possible alone. 3�12� Reporting to TIP and the company board Reporting to the company board: Each month, the company board will want to know: • sales revenue for the period (month, quarter, year to date); • profitability for the period; • how this translated to free cash; • how executives are building, maintaining or strengthening moats to improve margins; • any OH&S issues - and that they have been dealt with appropriately; and • the view of executives on how the business is tracking. Reporting to the Strategy Committee: The Strategy Committee will want to know each quarter what the board and executives have done to: • strengthen the profit-enabling moats of our business; • reduce the likelihood or severity of any risks to the business; • increase the net profit of our business; • increase dividends; and • make progress towards building a stronger executive team. Bad news and good news: Material good and bad news should be reported to the board immediately. Good news so we can share the success, and bad news so that we can act quickly to solve the problem. When communicating bad news, a good executive team will also provide potential ways of addressing the problem. This is so the board may act quickly in advising the best path to mitigate damage and turn the bad news into a new opportunity. Loss making quarter: Should the business report a loss for a calendar quarter, the company board must immediately arrange a meeting with TIP. The purpose of the meeting is to seek assistance and discuss what changes are necessary to get the business back to acceptable profit. We are happier with executives when they also inform us how they have already ensured the loss will not be repeated. If acceptable changes are not made, expect that executives and directors will be replaced. Compliance and culture: Executives are expected to comply with all of TIP’s corporate governance policies, and to instill a culture of acting entrepreneurially, ethically and responsibly. 52 Transferring knowledge and wealth between generations. 53 info@tipgroup�com�au | www�tipgroup�com�au Icon Metal Corporate Directory Directors Malcolm Jones - Chair Andrew Coleman Howard Coleman Ian Kadish Regan Passlow Company secretaries Anand Sundaraj Dean Robinson Financial Statements Teaminvest Private Group Limited ABN 74 629 045 736 Annual Report - 30 June 2023 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Contents 30 June 2023 Corporate directory Directors’ report Auditor’s independence declaration Consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income Consolidated statement of financial position Consolidated statement of changes in equity Consolidated statement of cash flows Notes to the consolidated financial statements Directors’ declaration Independent auditor’s report to the members of Teaminvest Private Group Limited 2 3 19 20 22 23 25 26 76 77 1 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Corporate directory 30 June 2023 Directors Company secretary Registered office Share register Auditor Solicitors Banker Malcolm Jones - Chair Andrew Coleman Howard Coleman Ian Kadish Regan Passlow Anand Sundaraj Dean Robinson Ground Floor Suite 2 23 Ryde Road Pymble NSW 2073 Computershare Investor Services Pty Ltd 452 Johnston Street Abbotsford VIC 3067 Tel: 1300 850 505 BDO Audit Pty Ltd Level 11, 1 Margaret Street Sydney NSW 2000 Sundaraj & Ker Level 31, Australia Square 264 George Street Sydney NSW 2000 Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited Level 10 242 Pitt Street Sydney NSW 2000 Stock exchange listing Teaminvest Private Group Limited shares are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX code: TIP) Website http://www.tipgroup.com.au Corporate Governance Statement The directors and management are committed to conducting the business of Teaminvest Private Group Limited in an ethical manner and in accordance with the highest standards of corporate governance.

Business Risks and Prospects Key Risks Operational Key Highlights Disruptions to administrative procedures or operational controls of the Company and/or one of the Portfolio Companies and/or their respective service providers may challenge the day to-day operations of the Company and/or one of the Portfolio Companies. Adverse impacts may arise internally through human error, 4 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Directors’ report For the year ended 30 June 2023 technology or infrastructure changes, or through external events such as regulatory changes and many more practical factors. The Company’s business is reliant upon the provision of services by its Board, the Company’s executives, and Portfolio Company executives. Any change in the quality or quantity of these services, or an inability to attract and retain qualified and motivated personnel to innovate or provide these services, could affect the Company’s business activities and financial performance. Further, an inability to attract quality sales and marketing personnel may adversely impact on the Company’s growth plans. The TIP brand name is a key asset of the business. The reputation and value associated with the TIP brand name could be adversely impacted by a number of factors including failure to provide customers with the quality of service standards they expect, disputes or litigation with third parties such as employees and customers, or adverse media coverage. Significant erosion of the reputation of, or value associated with, the TIP brand name could have an adverse effect on the Company’s future financial performance and financial position. There is also a risk that some incident beyond the control of the Company could occur which would have the effect of reducing consumer confidence or preferences for the brands used by the Company or brands utilised by the Portfolio Companies. The consequences of such an incident could be very significant for the Group, including reduced revenues, loss of consumer trust in the relevant brand or products, reduced desirability for the brand and reduced prominence of the relevant brand. The Company may, in its discretion, adopt the investment, trading and risk management strategies and methods it determines are most appropriate in the market circumstances. However, there can be no assurance that these strategies will be successful and an investor may lose all or a substantial proportion of their investment in the Company. The Company may employ additional strategies or change investment strategies following an assessment of market and other conditions and investment opportunities available to the Company. In addition, the Company may find that it is not able to execute on its intended investment strategy due to lower than expected availability of opportunities. The loss or impairment of a Portfolio Company’s relationships with a key customer or supplier, or an inability to renew existing contractual arrangements with such parties or negotiate agreement with new parties on terms which are no less favourable, is likely to result in a reduction in revenue and could have an adverse effect on the relevant Portfolio Company’s future financial performance and, if that adverse effect is sufficiently material, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s future financial performance. The Group has exclusive long-term supply partnerships with multiple proven offshore suppliers, many of whom have diverse capabilities and would be able to assist in the event of any disruption. Supply chain processes include dual-sourcing strategies and access to safety stock to mitigate the risk of supplier disruption. While the global supply chain landscape has stabilised post COVID-19, it continues to evolve because of changing market conditions and government policies, armed conflict and extreme weather events. Aligned with its Cultural values, the Group remains committed to continuous improvement in workplace health and safety performance. The Group has implemented comprehensive safety systems and processes, communications with and training of employees, and increased diligence in identifying and removing safety risks. The Group has also increased its focus on 5 Brand and reputation damage Investment strategies Key customers and suppliers Unforeseen disruptions impacting product supply from offshore suppliers leading to reputational damage, lower sales and loss of market share. Workplace health and safety risks could potentially result in physical injury to employees, contractors or others, or damage to the Company’s reputation.

Prospects TIP’s forward order book across the entities for commercial projects remains solid and is growing with several major projects secured. In addition, TIP’s corporate strategy incorporates opportunities for TIP to expand beyond current segments, categories and markets. Climate Risk and Opportunity As a responsible and forward-thinking organisation, we are committed to managing the risks associated with climate change. We recognise that climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of natural disasters, which have significant impacts on our customers and communities. We understand the need for action to mitigate these physical and transitional risks. We fully support Australia's transition to a net zero economy by 2050. This transition presents both opportunities and risks for our country. We believe that Australia has the potential to become a renewable energy exporter and a producer of critical minerals. To achieve this, significant investments in new technologies, industries, and communities are required. We are encouraged by the steps taken by the Australian Government in the past year to address climate change. The legislated emissions reduction targets provide clear direction for industry, banks, and investors, enabling them to make informed decisions regarding funding and investments. However, we recognise that not all of our businesses are in a position to adopt renewable energy solutions or energy- efficient practices. Therefore, we welcome additional government funding targeted at energy efficiency and believe that there is a continued role for government incentives to support businesses in their climate action efforts. In managing climate-related risks, we are continually improving our risk management tools and processes and ensuring these risks are effectively addressed. Environmental regulation The Group is not subject to any significant environmental regulation under Australian Commonwealth or State law. 6 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Directors’ report For the year ended 30 June 2023 Information on directors Name: Title: Qualifications: Experience and expertise: Other current directorships: Former directorships (last 3 years): Special responsibilities: Interest in shares: Interest in options: Contractual rights to shares: Name: Title: Qualifications: Experience and expertise Malcolm Jones Independent Chair FCA Malcolm has experience in managing large organisations.

Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including all directors. The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:  Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration  Details of remuneration  Service agreements  Share-based compensation  Additional information  Additional disclosures relating to key management personnel Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration The objective of the Group's executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders. The Board of Directors ('the Board') ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria: clarity and transparency;   performance linkage / alignment; and  acceptability to shareholders;  quantum. The Board is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements for its directors and executives. The performance of the Group depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract, motivate and retain high performance and high-quality personnel. The Board determines its remuneration policies having regard to the Company’s earnings and the consequences of the Company’s performance on shareholder wealth. The Board has structured an executive remuneration framework that it considers is complementary to the strategy of the Group. The reward framework is designed to align executive reward to long term shareholders' interest by:  having economic profit as the core component of plan design;  focusing on long term growth in shareholder wealth, and delivering constant or increasing return on assets as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value while decreasing risk; and  attracting and retaining highly motivated executives. Additionally, the reward framework seeks to enhance executives' interests by:  rewarding capability and profit generation;  reflecting reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth; and  providing a clear structure for earning attractive rewards for performance. The structure of non-executive director and executive director remuneration is separate. Non-executive directors' remuneration Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands and responsibilities of their role. Non-executive directors' fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. The chair's fees are determined independently to the fees of other non-executive directors. The chair is not present at any discussions relating to the determination of their own remuneration. Non-executive directors do not receive bonuses or other incentives. 11 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Directors’ report For the year ended 30 June 2023 The annual non-executive directors' fees currently agreed to be paid by the Company are set out below: Director Director's fees Malcolm Jones $100,000 per annum (including superannuation). Howard Coleman $70,000 per annum (including superannuation). Ian Kadish $70,000 per annum (including superannuation). Regan Passlow $70,000 per annum (including superannuation). Each non-executive director has agreed with the Company that half of their remuneration will be accrued but not paid during each financial year. These payments are to be settled subject to shareholder vote at the AGM. If approval is not granted, these will be paid in cash. It is noted that, for the financial year ended 30 June 2022, shareholder approval was not sought and instead 273,944 shares were purchased on market at an average price of 0.470 cents and transferred to the directors to satisfy their accrued remuneration. Australian Securities Exchange ('ASX') listing rules require the aggregate non-executive directors' remuneration be determined periodically by a general meeting. The maximum aggregate non-executive directors' remuneration was approved in 2019 by the Constitution at $500,000. Any changes to this amount will be approved by shareholders in the annual general meeting. Executive remuneration Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation non-monetary benefits and reward framework, are reviewed annually by the Board based on individual and business unit performance and the overall performance of the Group. The Fixed remuneration is set below comparable market remunerations. A greater percentage of total executive remuneration is available through short-term and long-term incentives based on performance. The executive remuneration and reward framework has four components:  base pay and non-monetary benefits;  short-term performance incentives;  share-based payments; and  other remuneration such as superannuation, annual leave and long service leave. The combination of these comprises the executive's total remuneration. Executives may receive their fixed remuneration in the form of cash or other fringe benefits (for example motor vehicle benefits) where it does not create any additional costs to the Group and provides additional value to the executive. The short-term incentives ('STI') program is designed to align the targets of the business units with the performance hurdles of executives. STI payments are granted to executives based on specific annual targets and key performance indicators ('KPI's') being achieved. Consolidated entity performance and link to remuneration The incentives to the executives is based on Net Profit After Tax as described below. An annual bonus equal to 3.5% of the Company’s audited comprehensive income per annum (before expensing the cost of the bonus) comprising:  75% to be paid in cash (Cash Component); and  25% to be issued as shares in the Company (Share Component). The bonus is to be determined twice each financial year, after the reviewed Half Year Result and after the audited Full Year Result.

General information The financial statements cover Teaminvest Private Group Limited as a Group consisting of Teaminvest Private Group Limited ('Company' or 'parent entity') and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the period (referred to in these financial statements as the 'Group'). The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Teaminvest Private Group Limited's functional and presentation currency. Teaminvest Private Group Limited is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office and principal place of business is: Ground Floor Suite 2, 23 Ryde Road Pymble, NSW 2073 A description of the nature of the Group's operations and its principal activities are included in the directors' report, which is not part of the financial statements. The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 28 August 2023. The directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. 26 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. (a) New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted The group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. (b) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2023. The Group has not yet assessed the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations. Basis of preparation These general-purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB'). Historical cost convention The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, unless otherwise stated. Critical accounting estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in note 3. Parent entity information In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the Group only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 40. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Teaminvest Private Group Limited as at 30 June 2023 and the results of all subsidiaries for the period then ended. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent. 27 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non- controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The Group recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss. Reportable and operating segments Reportable and operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. 28 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Revenue recognition The Group recognises revenue as follows: Revenue from contracts with customers Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the Group: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised. Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer such as discounts, rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other contingent events. Such estimates are determined using either the 'expected value' or 'most likely amount' method. The measurement of variable consideration is subject to a constraining principle whereby revenue will only be recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The measurement constraint continues until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Amounts received that are subject to the constraining principle are recognised as a refund liability. Sale of goods Revenue from the design, manufacture and installation of the products listed below is typically recognised at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the goods, which is generally at the time of installation or delivery.  glass splashbacks, glass bathroom walls and toughened mirrors;   automation and remote monitoring products. semi-trailers; and Revenue from the design, development and installation of electrical network extensions and upgrades work in exchange for a fixed fee is recognised over time. Rendering of services Revenue from a contract to provide logistic support services at a fixed price is recognised at a point in time when the services are rendered and items are delivered. Revenue from the design, development and installation of architectural metal work in exchange for a fixed fee is recognised over time as is the provision of traffic management services. Due to the high degree of interdependence between the various elements of these projects, they are accounted for as a single performance obligation. The performance obligation is based on the 'output method', where progress is measured against internally predetermined project milestones, being the most faithful depiction of the transfer of goods and services to each customer based on historical experience. As the performance obligation is generally completed within 12 months, the Group has used the practical expedient not to adjust for the effects of financing. The revenue from subscription and education services is recognised over the respective deemed benefit period. Interest Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. Other revenue Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. Income tax The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. 29 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for:  When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or  When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. Teaminvest Private Group Limited (the 'head entity') and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The head entity and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has applied the 'separate taxpayer within group' approach in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group. Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that the intercompany charge equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither a contribution by the head entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by the subsidiaries to the head entity. Current and non-current classification Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the Group's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the Group's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the statement of cash flows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents also includes bank overdrafts, which are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. 30 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Trade and other receivables Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue. Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Contract assets Contract assets are recognised when the Group has transferred goods or services to the customer but where the Group has yet to issue an invoice. Contract assets are treated as financial assets for impairment purposes. Inventories Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a 'first in first out' basis. Cost comprises of direct materials and delivery costs, direct labour, import duties and other taxes, an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure based on normal operating capacity, and, where applicable, transfers from cash flow hedging reserves in equity. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts received or receivable. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Associates Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the share of the profits or losses of the associate is recognised in profit or loss and the share of the movements in equity is recognised in other comprehensive income. Investments in associates are carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Group's share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to the associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. Dividends received or receivable from associates reduce the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. The Group discontinues the use of the equity method upon the loss of significant influence over the associate and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the associate's carrying amount, fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss. Property, plant and equipment Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows: Leasehold improvements Plant and equipment Plant and equipment under lease Motor vehicles over the term of the lease 1-10 years 2-5 years 4-10 years The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter. 31 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the Group. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. Right-of-use assets A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the Group expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred. Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period. Goodwill Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed. Confidential information This is proprietary information developed within an acquired business and consists of know-how, internal financial information and equations supporting proprietary software. This is not amortised and is tested annually for impairment. Brand Brand is acquired as part of business combination and is the collective customer and market sentiment towards a business, as evidenced by the business’s market share, price position, customer base, ongoing customer revenues and client loyalty. This is not amortised and is tested annually for impairment. 32 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Patents and trademarks Significant costs associated with patents and trademarks are deferred and amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being their finite useful life of 10 years. Customer relationships Customer relationships acquired in a business combination are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being their finite life of 10 and 15 years. Software Significant costs associated with software are deferred and amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being their finite useful life of 5 years. Technology based intangible assets These consist of unpatented software, processes and accumulated data acquired in a business combination. They are amortised over the period of their expected benefit, being a useful life of 15 years. Networks and relationships Networks and relationships acquired in a business combination are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being 6 years. Impairment of non-financial assets Goodwill is not subject to amortisation and is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Other non-financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a cash-generating unit. Trade and other payables These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Contract liabilities Contract liabilities represent the Group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer and are recognised when a customer pays consideration, or when the Group recognises a receivable to reflect its unconditional right to consideration (whichever is earlier) before the Group has transferred the goods or services to the customer. Borrowings Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Lease liabilities A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is 33 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Lease liabilities (cont.) remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down. Finance costs Finance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Other long-term employee benefits The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on high quality corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Defined contribution superannuation expense Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Share-based payments Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of cash is determined by reference to the share price. Fair value measurement When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on 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; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed at each reporting date and transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market 34 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) knowledge and reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of data. Issued capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Business combinations The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisition costs are capitalised as value in use cost. On the acquisition of a business, the Group assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the Group's operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date. Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. The difference between the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer. Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information possible to determine fair value. When two or more entities combine through an exchange of equity interests, AASB 3 requires one of the entities to be deemed the acquirer under a reverse acquisition. In a ‘reverse acquisitions’, the issuing entity is deemed to be the acquiree (legal parent) and the acquirer is deemed to be the subsidiary. In identifying the acquirer in a reverse acquisition the consideration is given in facts and circumstances including (a) the relative voting rights in the combined entity after the business combination; (b) the existence of a large minority voting interest in the combined entity if no other owner or organised group of owners has a significant voting interest; (c) the composition of the governing body of the combined entity; (d) the composition of the senior management of the combined entity and (e) the terms of the exchange of equity interests. The acquirer is usually the combining entity whose relative size (measured in, for example, assets, revenues or profit) is significantly greater than that of the other combining entity or entities. 35 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Teaminvest Private Group Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after-income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares. Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority. Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations The Group classifies non-current assets and disposal groups as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset (disposal group), excluding finance costs and income tax expense. The criteria for held for sale classification is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable, and the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Actions required to complete the sale should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale will be made or that the decision to sell will be withdrawn. Management must be committed to the plan to sell the asset and the sale expected to be completed within one year from the date of the classification. Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are not depreciated or amortised once classified as held for sale. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the statement of financial position. Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount as profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations in the statement of profit or loss. Additional disclosures are provided in this regard. All other notes to the financial statements include amounts for continuing operations, unless indicated otherwise. Comparative information Comparatives have been restated, where appropriate, to conform to changes in presentation in the current year and to enhance comparability. There was no net effect on the net asset position. 36 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (cont.) Rounding of amounts The Company is of a kind referred to in Corporations Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to 'rounding-off'. Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Corporations Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar. 37 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below. Revenue recognition over time For performance obligations satisfied over time, management uses judgement to select a method for measuring its progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. In exercising that judgement, management selects a method that depicts its performance in transferring control of goods or services to the customer. For the provision of architectural metal work, management has determined that progress should be measured by internally predetermined project milestones (an output method). Specifically this method involves estimating the progress towards satisfying performance obligations within the contract and contract costs expected to be incurred to satisfy the performance obligations. Allowance for expected credit losses The allowance for expected credit losses assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. It is based on the lifetime expected credit loss, grouped based on days overdue, and makes assumptions to allocate an overall expected credit loss rate for each group. These assumptions include recent sales experience, historical collection rates, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and forward-looking information that is available. Estimation of useful lives of assets The Group determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and finite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down. Goodwill The Group tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 2. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows. Control of Enva Group During the year the Group agreed to acquire 100% of the shares in Enva Group. The acquisition of the shares is subject to the finalisation of a legal matter. The Group has exercised judgement that control has not passed to the Group until the conclusion of the legal matter as well as the consideration of power, exposure to variable returns and the ability to use power to affect returns in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements. Income tax The Group is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant judgement is required in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on the Group's current understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. 38 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Recovery of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences only if the Group considers it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Incremental borrowing rate Where the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated to discount future lease payments to measure the present value of the lease liability at the lease commencement date. Such a rate is based on what the Group estimates it would have to pay a third party to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security and economic environment. Note 4. Operating segments Identification of reportable and operating segments The Group is organised into two statutory operating segments. These operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM') in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. Further details are as follows: From 1 January 2023, the Group has restructured the reporting divisions. The group now consists of the following divisions:  TIP Equity, consists of operating companies which are not financial services in nature.  TIP Wealth, consists of entities which provide a range of financial services, including TIP UK Segment name Description Equity Segment Wealth segment The Equity segment includes seven wholly owned subsidiaries of the Group: Lusty TIP Trailers Pty Ltd, Icon Metal Pty Ltd, and Coastal Energy Pty Ltd, East Coast Traffic Controllers Pty Ltd, Teaminvest Private Residential Group Pty Ltd, Teaminvest Pty Ltd and Automation Group Investments Pty Ltd. The Wealth segment includes four wholly owned subsidiaries of the Group: TIP Trustees, TIP Wealth RE no1 Ltd, Teaminvest Private Financial Services Pty Ltd, TIP Group Corporate Advisory Services Pty Ltd; one 80% owned subsidiary, TIP Group UK Pty Ltd, one 70% owned subsidiary, Diversified Growth Management Pty Ltd. The CODM reviews EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation). The accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements. The information reported to the CODM is on a monthly basis and presents continuing and discounting operations together. Intersegment transactions There were no material intersegment transactions. Intersegment receivables, payables and loans There were no intersegment receivables, payables and loans. Major customers During the period ended 30 June 2023, the Group had sales to a construction customer that amounted to $15,571,000 (2022: $10,804,000). 39 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 4.

The recoverable amount of each CGU’s goodwill and indefinite useful life assets has been determined by a value-in- use calculation using a discounted cash flow model, based on management approved budget for the year ended 30 June 2023 and the application of a growth rate for a 5 year projection period, together with a terminal value. The discount rate used in the value-in-use calculation is based on each CGU’s weighted average cost of capital. This post tax discount rate is applied to post tax cash flows. The key assumptions were used in the discounted cash flow models for the period subsequent to management's approved budget: 2023 Revenue CAGR rate % 8.10% 6.40% 6.20% 8.00% 6.00% 2023 Discount rate (post- tax) % 13.87% 14.30% 12.66% 13.25% 12.84% 2023 Terminal growth rate % 2.75% 2.75% 2.00% 2.75% 3.00% 2022 Revenue CAGR rate % 6.48% 6.40% 6.10% 8.00% 4.00% 2022 Discount rate (post- tax) % 8.81% 9.52% 10.26% 9.87% 7.42% 2022 Terminal growth rate % 2.75% 2.75% 2.75% 2.75% 3.00% Icon Metal Lusty TIP Trailers Automation Group Investments East Coast Traffic Control Teaminvest 57 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 16. Non-current assets – intangibles (cont.) Key assumption Revenue growth rate Discount rate Terminal growth rate Approach used to determine values Revenue projections are extracted from the most recent approved budget, strategic plans or forecasts that relate to the CGU. For each CGU, the CAGR for revenue over the forecast period has been determined based on expectations of future performance in the markets that the businesses operate in. These assumptions are based on expectations of market growth, demand and operational performance over the periods from FY24 – FY28. The post-tax discount rate reflects management’s estimate of the time value of money and the relevant CGU’s weighted average cost of capital. A post-tax discount rate is used which is applied to post-tax cashflows. Management have estimated that the terminal growth rate will be in line with the Reserve Bank of Australia ('RBA') expected gross domestic products ('GDP') growth projection range. Based on the above the recoverable amount exceeds the carrying amount and therefore, goodwill and indefinite useful life assets is not considered to be impaired. Sensitivity Should these key assumptions, judgements and estimates noted above change, the recoverable amount may decrease. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out and the recoverable amount of the CGU would equal its carrying amount if the key assumptions were to change as follows: 2023 2023 2022 2022 Revenue CAGR decreases to % 7.40% 3.40% 4.40% 3.10% 4.00% Discount rate increases to % 14.37% 16.30% 14.66% 16.30% 13.34% Revenue CAGR decreases to % 5.82% 5.78% 5.10% 6.98% 3.00% Discount rate increases to % 13.21% 11.64% 11.46% 21.13% 10.42% Icon Metal Lusty TIP Trailers Automation Group Investments East Coast Traffic Control Teaminvest 58 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 17.

Capital risk management The Group’s objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. The Group would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as value adding relative to the current Company's share price at the time of the investment. The Group is actively looking for accretive acquisitions to grow in alignment with the Groups investment mandate. The Group is subject to certain financing arrangements covenants and meeting these is given priority in all capital risk management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements during the financial year. 62 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 27.

Financial instruments Financial risk management objectives The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate and ageing analysis for credit risk. Risk management is carried out by senior finance executives ('finance') in conjunction with the Risk and Compliance committee ('RCC'). Finance identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks within the Group's operating units. Finance reports to the Board on a monthly basis. Market risk Foreign currency risk The Group is not exposed to any significant foreign currency risk. Price risk In the current year. the Group was exposed to price risk on the fixed price contracts within one of the operating subsidiaries. In light of the current inflationary environment, contracts are negotiated to include provisions to vary prices. Interest rate risk The Group's main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings obtained at variable rates expose the Group to interest rate risk. Borrowings obtained at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. As at the reporting date, the Group had the following variable rate borrowings outstanding: Consolidated 30 June 2023 30 June 2022 Weighted average interest rate % Balance $'000 Weighted average interest rate % Balance $'000 Bank overdraft and bank loans 0.00% - - 0.00% - - An analysis by remaining contractual maturities in shown in 'liquidity risk' below. For the Group, the bank overdraft and loans outstanding, totalling $Nil (2022: $Nil), are principal and interest payment loans. An official increase/decrease in interest rates of 100 (2022:100) basis points would have an adverse/favourable effect on profit before tax of $Nil (2022: $Nil) per annum. The percentage change is based on the expected volatility of interest rates using market data and analysts' forecasts. Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has a strict code of credit, including obtaining agency credit information, confirming references and setting appropriate credit limits. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any expected credit losses of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. The Group does not hold any collateral. The Group has adopted a lifetime expected loss allowance in estimating expected credit losses to trade receivables through the use of a provisions matrix using fixed rates of credit loss provisioning. These provisions are considered representative across all customers of the Group based on recent sales experience, historical collection rates and forward-looking information that is available. Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of this include the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan, no active enforcement activity and a failure to make contractual payments for a period greater than one year. 64 Teaminvest Private Group Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2023 Note 28. Financial instruments (cont.) Liquidity risk Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the Group to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Financing arrangements Unused borrowing facilities at the reporting date: Bank overdraft 30 Jun 2023 $'000 30 Jun 2022 $'000 5,000 5,000 5,000 5,000 The bank overdraft facilities may be drawn at any time and may be terminated by the bank without notice. Subject to the continuance of satisfactory credit ratings, the bank loan facilities may be drawn at any time. Remaining contractual maturities The following tables detail the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its financial instrument liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the financial liabilities are required to be paid.
