COVID-19 has presented various unforeseen challenges to our company and industry during this period. In such a complex climate, we have managed to deliver growth in revenues, customers and dividends. As the current operating environment may persist into the medium term, we maintain our efforts on improving business efficiencies to prepare us for when our circumstances return to normal. We continue to expand our business and look forward to seeing on-going returns in the market. We reached a milestone in welcoming our first renewable generation agreement. While this is taking longer than expected, the renewable energy space remains a high priority for CovaU. Our business strategy has enabled us to deliver a financial result that was above our expectations. CovaU operating circumstances remain difficult due to COVID-19 disruptions and lockdowns affecting customers, supply chains, sales, employees and collections. Everyone remains committed to coming out of this situation positively and driving our company to the next level. There were consistent upturns of performance for the year. Revenue of the consolidated entity increased to $93.6 million, up by 8.4% from the previous year. Gross profit increased to $22.2 million, up by 18.6%. EBITDA increased to $6.3 million, up by 24.9% from the last year of $5.0 million. NPAT was $4.7 million, up by 39.4% compared with last year of $3.4 million. Due to management efforts despite such challenging conditions, I am pleased to announce the Board is able to declare a fully franked final dividend of 10 cents per share for this financial year. Should there be no major changes in the overall energy market, the Group expects to maintain its profitability and cash flow in the next financial year. CovaU's energy business will remain the largest contributor to revenues and profits. Dependable performance will be achieved by diligent management and stringent cost control alongside activities that grow the energy business. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank management for their hard work and shareholders for their patience and I sincerely hope that we will be able to report correspondingly improved financial results for the Group continued support. in the coming years as a reward to that continuing support. Yours sincerely, Greg McCann Chairman 2CEO and Managing Director’s Review I am happy to report our results in such an abnormal year impacted by COVID-19. Our team has again excelled to minimize bad debt, maintain revenue and customer growth, and preserve our margin. I would like to thank everyone for their contribution. Once again, the extended pandemic conditions have impacted this financial year. We have continued to put every effort into best managing the business under pandemic conditions. These persistent conditions have resulted in a subdued wholesale energy market, especially in the first half of the year. The repetitive and prolonged high-price events in the second half of the year, and other external events, have adversely impacted the cost of energy for CovaU and our customers. There are significant cost mechanisms set to help the business absorb the COVID-19 shock whilst allowing us to pass on some reductions to our customers. Relief packages and payment plans for customers continue to be extended to those experiencing hard times. In regard to the renewable generation segment, the Chief Strategy Officer and I continue to invest our efforts with a view to strategically positioning CovaU into a strong renewable future. I am happy to report the signing of our first renewable Power Purchase Agreement with a major windfarm developer. We will continue to add more green power as these opportunities arise. Energy prices remain challenging during the pandemic conditions and remain a factor during our transition toward a greener energy supply. An unusually high number of weather events contributed to increased operating costs during the second half of the year with electricity price spikes and extreme gas spot prices. These events had a major impact on financial performance: a) milder than average summer leading to all hedging contracts being overpriced; b) the harsh winter in Asia and Europe in early 2021 leading to high demand for LNG causing higher underlying prices for Australian domestic power generation; c) the explosion at Queensland's Callide power station in May caused a chain of events and high volatility in energy market; d) the flooding at Yallourn power station in June caused long price spikes to cover base load shortfalls in NSW and Q’LD; and e) outages at Longford and Iona compounded the increased strain on gas-fired power stations covering the outages in coal-fired generation. Given this background, I believe our performance is satisfactory. I believe we are up to the challenge of managing future unforeseen events and delivering minimal deviation similar to this year's results. We will continue to apply our best efforts in this area, especially during periods of high volatility. With regard to COVID-19, our view is that recent vaccine rollouts and lockdowns will help curb the number of cases in the medium term and have raised the hope of the return to a sense of normality. Ongoing waves of COVID-19, specifically the delta variant, pose new concerns to this outlook. The effects of COVID-19 have impacted our call centre in the Philippines to a great degree. Most of our people are working from home and are further challenged due to the lack of good internet infrastructure. We are providing extended support to all our employees there as they continue to support us. We are also happy to report that our colleagues in that region are close to being fully vaccinated and their commitment to work is not compromised. The recovery will be complex and dependent on many factors. It is our aim to continue our best efforts in managing these pandemic conditions for an extended period. We remain confident in managing these challenges and believe we can continue to deliver solid results in this operating climate. Our expansion is now gaining momentum and we are putting efforts into building a more sizable business. The mobile business remains largely unchanged with a decline in revenue. We are under discussions as to the most appropriate next steps. 3CEO and Managing Director’s Review The executive team will maintain prudent management of business profitability in these uncertain times. Our business is subject to risks that may impact on our strategy even after careful planning and management. Such risks include: • sales competition with no regard to commercial viability; and • the unsteadiness of the old-fashion generation and the volatility of our green generation may result in extreme or prolonged high wholesale energy prices. In summary we will to continue to manage our business well and position ourselves for profitable growth whilst continuing to provide competitive energy services to our customers.

COVID-19 Impact on Results In March 2020, the World Health Organisation declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout Australia. The spread of COVID-19 has caused significant volatility in Australian and international markets. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the Australian and international economies. With regard to the financial impacts of COVID-19, the Group faced a decrease in revenue from commercial businesses due to lock-downs and businesses operating on lower capacity. Despite the challenging conditions, Management managed to increase revenue through expansion of our retail electricity and gas business into Queensland and South Australia. The impact was also mitigated by our continuous efforts on improving business efficiencies alongside the support provided by the Australian Government's Jobkeeper program. Note that the Group's clientele is comprised of residential customers and small to medium sized Australian-based businesses from a broad range of industries.

Details of Directors and Executives The names and positions of each director and executive in the Company who received the highest remuneration and having the greatest authority within the Company, along with the components of their remuneration are provided below. Directors Greg McCann Chiao-Heng (Charles) Huang Jeffrey Ma Steven Goodarzi Chairman (Non-executive) Managing Director, Chief Executive Officer Director, Chief Financial Officer, Company Secretary Director, Chief Strategy Officer Executives Bing Zhou Gang Gu Chief Revenue Officer - effective on 1 November 2020 General Manager, Technology Remuneration Policy The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for determining remuneration arrangements for the directors, the Managing Director and the senior management team. The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of the remuneration of directors and senior executives on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team. Employee Share Ownership Plan The 2009 Employee Share Ownership Plan, which was implemented on 30 November 2009, was amended and approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on 30 November 2015 (2009 ESOP). This plan replaced the previously approved Employee Option Plan instituted on 23 May 2007, which the Board believed was no longer as effective following changes to the taxation of options in recipients hands. The 2009 ESOP aims to motivate, retain and attract quality employees and directors of the Company to create a commonality of purpose between the employees and directors and the Company. The 2009 ESOP is operated by way of the Company issuing new shares to participants, with an amount equal to the subscription price for those shares being loaned to the participant by the Company. That loan is secured by the Company taking security over the shares which are subject to a holding lock period of five years, and is interest free with recourse only to the shares. The loan is to be repaid over time by the participant (whether through dividends, specific payments to reduce the loan, or on sale of the underlying shares). Shares issued under the 2009 ESOP will rank from the date of issue equally with the other shares in the Company then on issue. 11Directors' Report Non-executive Director Remuneration The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount determined is then divided among the directors as agreed. The latest determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 20 April 2007 when shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of $350,000 per year payable to non-executive directors for their services as directors, including their services on a committee of directors. The Board determines payments to the non-executive directors and will review their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. Each non-executive director receives a fee for being a director of the Company. An additional fee may also be paid for each Board committee on which a director sits. Non-executive directors are eligible to be granted shares under the Employee Share Ownership Plan. Executive Director and Executives Remuneration Remuneration granted to the executive directors and other executives has regard to the Company's financial and operational performance. The Board determines the base salary of the executive directors and will review their remuneration annually against the external market and individual contribution to the Company. Performance pay based on overall corporate performance may be made available to the executive team. Each executive director and executive receives remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Company. Executive directors and executives are eligible to be granted shares under the Employee Share Ownership Plan. Voting and Comments made at the Company's 2020 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") At the 2020 AGM, shareholders voted to approve the adoption of the remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2020.

With the exception of the executive directors (where either party may terminate the agreement by giving a three months notice to the other), the notice period of standard company employment agreements is one month. None of these agreements provide for termination conditions or payments. The Board considers that the significant equity holding of executive directors mitigates any risk of not having formal termination clauses. Any termination entitlements payable to the key management personnel would be considered in light of the relevant circumstances and would be determined after consideration of entitlements of common law rights. Directors and Executives Share Holdings The number of ordinary shares in the Company held directly, indirectly or beneficially during the financial year by key management personnel and their related entities are as follows: Greg McCann Chiao-Heng (Charles) Huang Jeffrey Ma Steven Goodarzi Bing Zhou Gang Gu Total Shares Held at Beginning of Year Shares Issued under 2009 ESOP Shares Acquired Total Shares Held at End of Year 85,000 4,463,393 423,003 210,335 61,000 83,826 5,326,557 - - - - 140,000 - 140,000 - - - - - - - 85,000 4,463,393 423,003 210,335 201,000 83,826 5,466,557 Total shareholdings include shares held by key management personnel and their related entities.

There have been two methods applied in achieving this aim, the first being a performance based bonus based on key performance indicators, and the second being the issue of equity to the majority of directors and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests.

Non-Audit Services Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor are outlined in Note 7 to the financial statements.

The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in Note 7 to the financial statements do not compromise the external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: • all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and • none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards. 15Directors' Report Corporate Governance Statement The directors of the Company support and adhere to the principle of corporate governance, recognising the need for the highest standard of corporate behaviour and accountability. A review of the Company's corporate governance practices was undertaken during the year to ensure they remained optimal. Please refer to the corporate governance statement in this report. Rounding of Amounts issued by the Australian Securities and The Company is of a kind referred to in Legislative Instrument 2016/191, Investment Commission, relating to "rounding-off". Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Class Order to the nearest dollar. Amounts could have been rounded off to nearest thousand, but management has selected not to do so at this point in time. This report is made in accordance with a resolution of Directors, pursuant to Section 298 (2) (a) of the Corporation Act 2001. On behalf of the Directors, Greg McCann Chairman Chiao-Heng (Charles) Huang Managing Director Dated this 27 August 2021 16Corporate Governance Statement The Company is committed to implementing standards of corporate governance consistent with the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4th Edition). Where the Company's corporate governance practices do not correlate with the Recommendations, the Company does not currently regard it appropriate to meet that specific Recommendation, due to the nature and size of the Company's operations.

The consolidated financial report of the Group also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated, with all balances being presented in Australian dollars. This financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and notes of TPC Consolidated Limited and the controlled entities (consolidated group or group). TPC Consolidated Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia, whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange, under the ticker TPC. Basis of Preparation The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs except where applicable as modified by the revaluation of financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. report containing relevant and reliable information about Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the consolidated financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. The financial report of TPC Consolidated Limited and its controlled entities for the year ended 30 June 2021 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the TPC Board of Directors on 27 August 2021. Parent Entity Information In accordance with Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in Note 28. Accounting Policies New, Revised or Amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations Adopted The Company has applied the required amendments to the Standards that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current reporting period. The application of the amendments to Standards do not have a material impact on disclosure or amounts recognised in these financial statements. (a) Principles of Consolidation The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Parent Company and all of its subsidiaries as of 30 June 2021. The Parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiary. All subsidiaries have a reporting date of 30 June. All transactions and balances between Group companies are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealised gains and losses on transactions between Group companies. Where unrealised losses on intra-group asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from a group perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are recognised from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable. 23Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (b) Income Tax The income tax expense or benefit represents the sum of current tax and deferred tax. Current tax is calculated on accounting profit after adjustment for any non-taxable and non-deductible items. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted at reporting date. The current tax and deferred tax is recognised as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except when it relates to items directly charged or credited to equity, in which case the current and deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity. Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except to the extent that the deferred tax liabilities arises from: - the initial recognition of goodwill; or - the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither the accounting profit or taxable income at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and for carrying forward of unused tax losses and tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carrying forward of unused tax losses and tax credits can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will be occurring in the foreseeable future. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. Effective 1 July 2003, for the purposes of income taxation, TPC Consolidated Limited and its 100% owned Australian subsidiaries formed a tax consolidated group. As part of the election to enter tax consolidation, the tax consolidated group is treated as a single entity for income tax purposes. Gotalk Pty Limited and its wholly owned subsidiaries joined the tax consolidated group upon acquisition on 23 December 2011. TPC Consolidated Limited, as the head entity in the tax consolidated group, recognises, in addition to its own, the current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits of all entities in the group. (c) Inventories Inventories are initially measured and recorded at cost and are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 24Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (d) Property, Plant and Equipment Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any provision for impairment loss. Plant and Equipment Plant and Equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows which will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred. Depreciation The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight line basis over their useful lives to the consolidated entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: Plant & Equipment Office Fittings & Furniture Office Equipment Network Equipment 10% 13% 20% - 33% 20% - 33% An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated entity. Gains or losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. (e) Leases A lease is defined as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration’. To apply this definition the Group assesses whether the contract meets three key evaluations which are whether: • the contract contains an identified asset, which is either explicitly identified in the contract or implicitly specified by being identified at the time the asset is made available to the Group • the Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset throughout the period of use, considering its rights within the defined scope of the contract • the Group has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Group assess whether it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of use. 25Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (e) Leases (continued) Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee At lease commencement date, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct costs incurred by the Group, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at the end of the lease, and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any incentives received). The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The Group also assesses the right-of-use asset for impairment when such indicators exist. At the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at that date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available or the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed payments (including in substance fixed), variable payments based on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and payments arising from options reasonably certain to be exercised. Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for payments made and increased for interest. It is remeasured to reflect any reassessment or modification, or if there are changes in in-substance fixed payments. When the lease liability is remeasured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of-use asset, or profit and loss if the right-of-use asset is already reduced to zero. The Group has elected to account for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets using the practical expedients. Instead of recognising a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. (f) Financial Instruments Recognition and derecognition Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires. Classification and initial measurement of financial assets Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable) Financial assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories: • amortised cost • fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) • fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). In the periods presented the corporation does not have any financial assets categorised as FVOCI. The classification is determined by both: • the entity’s business model for managing the financial asset • the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables which is presented within other expenses. 26Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (f) Financial Instruments (continued) Subsequent measurement of financial assets Financial assets at amortised cost Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not designated as FVTPL): • they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its contractual cash flows • the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) Financial assets that are held within a different business model other than ‘hold to collect’ or ‘hold to collect and sell’ are categorised at fair value through profit and loss. Further, irrespective of business model financial assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest are accounted for at FVTPL. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements apply. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss. The fair values of financial assets in this category are determined by reference to active market transactions or using a valuation technique where no active market exists. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) The Group accounts for financial assets at FVOCI if the assets meet the following conditions: • they are held under a business model whose objective it is “hold to collect” the associated cash flows and sell and • the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Any gains or losses recognised in other comprehensive income (OCI) will be recycled upon derecognition of the asset. Impairment of financial assets AASB 9’s impairment requirements use more forward-looking information to recognise expected credit losses – the ‘expected credit loss (ECL) model’. Instruments within the scope of the requirements included loans and other debt-type financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVOCI, trade receivables, contract assets recognised and measured under AASB 15 and loan commitments and some financial guarantee contracts (for the issuer) that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. Recognition of credit losses is no longer dependent on the Group first identifying a credit loss event. Instead the Group considers a broader range of information when assessing credit risk and measuring expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument. In applying this forward-looking approach, a distinction is made between: • financial instruments that have not deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition or that have low credit risk (‘Stage 1’) and • financial instruments that have deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition and whose credit risk is not low (‘Stage 2’). ‘Stage 3’ would cover financial assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date. ‘12-month expected credit recognised for the second category. losses’ are recognised for the first category while ‘lifetime expected credit losses’ are Measurement of the expected credit losses is determined by a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of the financial instrument. 27Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (f) Financial Instruments (continued) Trade and other receivables and contract assets The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other receivables as well as contract assets and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. In calculating, the Group uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking information to calculate the expected credit losses using a provision matrix. The Group assess impairment of trade receivables on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics they have been grouped based on the days past due. Classification and measurement of financial liabilities The Group’s financial liabilities include borrowings, trade and other payables and derivative financial instruments. Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments). All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument’s fair value that are reported in profit or loss are included within finance costs or finance income. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting Derivative financial instruments are accounted for at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL) except for derivatives designated as hedging instruments in cash flow hedge relationships, which require a specific accounting treatment. To qualify for hedge accounting, the hedging relationship must meet all of the following requirements: • there is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument • the effect of credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship • the hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the entity actually hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the entity actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item. For the reporting periods under review, the Group has designated certain forward currency contracts as hedging instruments in cash flow hedge relationships. These arrangements have been entered into to mitigate foreign currency exchange risk arising from certain highly probable sales transactions denominated in foreign currency. All derivative financial subsequently at fair value in the statement of financial position. instruments used for hedge accounting are recognised initially at fair value and reported To the extent that the hedge is effective, changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges are recognised in other comprehensive income and included within the cash flow hedge reserve in equity. Any ineffectiveness in the hedge relationship is recognised immediately in profit or loss. At the time the hedged item affects profit or loss, any gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented as a reclassification adjustment within other comprehensive income. However, if a non-financial asset or liability is recognised as a result of the hedged transaction, the gains and losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are included in the initial measurement of the hedged item. If a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, any related gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is transferred immediately to profit or loss. If the hedging relationship ceases to meet the effectiveness conditions, hedge accounting is discontinued and the related gain or loss is held in the equity reserve until the forecast transaction occurs. 28Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (g) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset's carrying value. Any excess of the asset's carrying value over its recoverable amount is charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs. (h) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances Functional and Presentational Currency The functional currency of each group entity is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentational currency. Transactions and Balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year end exchange rate. Non monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. results and position of Group Companies The financial presentational currency are translated as follows: - Assets and liabilities are translated at year end exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date; - Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and - Retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group's Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group's foreign currency translation reserve in the consolidated statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period in which the operation is disposed. (i) Employee Benefits Annual Leave/Long Service Leave Provision is made for the consolidated entity's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Superannuation Contributions are made by the consolidated entity to employee superannuation funds and are charged as expenses when incurred. 29Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (i) Employee Benefits (continued) Share-based Payments The group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and is recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options (and ESOP awards accounted for as options) is ascertained using a Black-Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at each reporting date such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. (j) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. (k) Trade Receivables Trade and other receivables are stated at amortised cost less any provision for impairment loss. Expected Credit Loss The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost. The loss allowance methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Group uses an allowance matrix to measure expected credit losses of trade receivables and contract assets from its customers. Trade receivable amounts are disaggregated into customer segments. Loss rates are estimated in each age category and are based on the probability of a receivable progressing through to write-off. Factors to estimate the loss rate are based on risk assessment performed per customer segment and economic factors such as wholesale electricity forward curves. The amount of the expected credit loss is recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an expected credit loss had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the provision account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in profit or loss. Expected credit loss on trade receivables and contract assets The Group uses an allowance matrix to measure expected credit losses of trade receivables and contract assets from its customers. Trade receivable amounts are disaggregated into customer segments. (l) Trade and Other Payables Trade and other payables are stated at amortised cost. (m) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. (n) Contract Liabilities Contract liabilities represents the unused component of prepaid mobile products as at the reporting date and relates to cards that have been activated. Contract liabilities also represents receipts in advance from customers of the energy business as at the reporting date. 30Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (o) Revenue Recognition The Group’s primary revenue streams relate to the retail sale of electricity and gas to residential and business customers in Australia. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services is transferred to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The majority of contractual energy supply arrangements with customers have no fixed duration, generally require no minimum consumption by the customer and are able to be terminated by either party at any time without incurring significant penalty. Given this, the enforceable contracts are considered short term (less than 12 months) in nature. The Group has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements because it controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer. The Group’s primary performance obligations are the supply of energy (gas or electricity) over the contractual term. There are either individual contracts representing separate purchasing decisions of customers, or the units of supply of energy represent a series of distinct goods that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer and hence is considered one performance obligation satisfied over time. For the shorter term contracts, the performance obligations are considered to be satisfied, and revenue is recognised, as and when the units of energy are delivered. Residential electricity and gas sales Residential energy sales relate to the sales of energy (gas and electricity) to retail customers. Residential sales are classified as individual, short term, day-by-day contracts and are recognised as revenue on a day-by-day basis upon delivery of energy to customers. The Group recognises revenue from contracts with its residential customers at the electricity and gas portfolio levels. Business electricity and gas sales Business sales represent the sale of energy to business customers. The nature and accounting treatment of this revenue stream is consistent with residential sales. Revenue from the rendering of telecommunication service Revenue from the rendering of telecommunication service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to customers. A sales incentive provided to a customer in the form of non-cash consideration, for example bonus time, is considered to be a separate deliverable in a multiple deliverable arrangement. Sales revenue is allocated proportionally to the aggregate of the service paid for and the incentive, and is recognised when the customer utilises the incentive i.e. when TPC provides the service. Customer contract liabilities are recognised for cash received in advance and services not used yet. Costs to obtain and fulfil a contract Costs that are incurred regardless of whether an energy contract is obtained are expensed as incurred, unless those costs are explicitly chargeable to the customer. Variable consideration and constraints The Group includes variable consideration in the transaction price as estimated at the inception of a contract. However, if it is considered 'highly probable' that a significant reversal of revenue recognised will occur in the future, the variable consideration is constrained and not included in the transaction price. The Group's contractual arrangements contain a number of variable pricing elements including discounts. Some of these variable elements are resolved during the reporting periods. Where they are not, management estimates the likelihood of the variable pricing element eventuating and recognises the variable pricing element to the extent it is not highly probable that it will reverse. Government Grant Income - Jobkeepers Payment Intended to help keep more Australians in jobs and support businesses affected by the significant economic impact of COVID-19, the Government announced Jobkeeper Payment Scheme that provides eligible employers with wages subsidy for wages paid to eligible employees started on 30 March 2020 and finished 28 March 2021. The Jobkeeper payment grant is recognised as income when the Group is reasonably assured that it will comply with the conditions attaching to it, and the grant will be received. Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method. 31Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (p) Goods and Services Tax Revenues and expenses are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST due, but not paid, to the Australian Taxation Office is included under payables. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statements on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. (q) Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of TPC Consolidated Limited divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated as adjusted net profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of TPC Consolidated Limited divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares during the period. (r) Segment Reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors. (s) Comparatives Where required by accounting standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in the current year. (t) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and consolidated data, obtained both externally and within the group. Expected Credit Loss of Receivables The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Group uses an allowance matrix to measure expected credit losses of trade receivables from its customers. Trade receivable amounts are disaggregated into customer segments. Loss rates are estimated in each age category and are based on the probability of a receivable progressing through to write-off. Factors to estimate the loss rate are based on risk assessment performed per customer segment and economic factors such as wholesale electricity forward curves. 32Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 1: Statement of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting Policies (continued) (t) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments (continued) Contract Assets The Group recognises revenue from gas and electricity sales once the gas and/or electricity has been consumed by the customer. Management estimates customer consumption between the last invoice date and the end of the reporting period when determining gas and electricity revenue for the financial period. Various assumptions and financial models are used to determine the estimated unbilled consumption. Some of the assumptions and estimates include: • Volume and timing of energy consumed by the customers • Various pricing plans and allocation of the estimated volume to such pricing plans • Loss factors • Behavioural discounts The Group makes uses of simplified approach in accounting for contract assets and records the loss allowance as life expected credit losses. Fair Value of Financial Instruments When the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the statement of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, the fair value is determined using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flow model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. The judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. See Note 26 for further discussion. 33Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 2: Revenue Disaggregated Revenue Services transferred over time - Electricity Service - Gas Service - Telecommunication Services Other Income - Government Grant Income - Jobkeeper Payment - Sundry Income 2021 $ 2020 $ 67,960,501 24,674,598 993,471 93,628,570 61,451,549 23,167,974 1,726,632 86,346,155 889,350 84,860 974,210 453,000 84,868 537,868 AASB 15 requires entities to disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into categories that depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Group has determined that a disaggregation of revenue using existing segments and the nature of revenue best depicts the Group's revenue. For 2021, revenue includes $1,816,276 (2020: $1,692,605) included in contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Where the company funds the acquisition of its own shares via a loan to employees with recourse only to the shares, it is treated as an option grant and accounted for under AASB 2 Share-based Payment. No loan or equity is booked initially. The Company has effectively given the employee an option exercisable sometime in the future to buy a share at a set price. For information relating to shares issued under the 2009 ESOP during the financial year, refer to Note 25(a). Effective 1 July 1998, the Corporations legislation in place abolished the concepts of authorised capital and par value shares. Accordingly, the company does not have authorised capital nor par value in respect of its issued shares. Ordinary shares carry one vote per share and carry the right to dividends. 45 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 19: Issued Capital (continued) (c) Capital Management Management controls the capital of the group in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the shareholders with adequate returns and ensure that the group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. The group's capital includes ordinary shares supported by financial assets, and structured debt facilities. Management effectively manages the group's capital by assessing the group's financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders, buy-back shares and share issues. Apart from the above, there have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the group since the prior year.

Note 25: Employee Benefits (a) Employee Share Ownership Plan The 2009 Employee Share Ownership Plan, which was implemented on 30 November 2009, was amended and approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on 30 November 2015 (2009 ESOP). The 2009 ESOP aims to motivate, retain and attract quality employees and directors of the company to create commonality of purpose between the employees and directors and the company. The ESOP is operated by way of the company issuing new shares to participants, with an amount equal to the subscription price for those shares being loaned to the participant by the company. That loan secured by the company taking security over the shares which are subject to a holding lock period of five years, is interest free with recourse only to the shares. The loan is to be repaid over time by the participant (whether through dividends, specific payments to reduce the loan, or on sale of the underlying shares). Shares issued under the 2009 ESOP will rank from the date of issue equally with the other shares in the company then on issue. All shares issued pursuant to the 2009 ESOP are held by a trustee appointed by the company in trust for the participant until such time as the loan is repaid. The loan becomes immediately repayable in the event of dismissal, resignation, death or retirement of the participant. 60% of all dividends and distributions made in respect of the shares must be applied towards repayment of the loan. Voting rights attached to the shares may only be exercised by the trustee holder in the best interest of the participant. On 15 December 2020, a total of 140,000 shares were granted to an employee of the company under the 2009 ESOP. For accounting purposes, the share issue under the 2009 ESOP has been treated as option grant and the value of the options vested has been accounted for and included in the result of the period. Any repayment of the loan will be treated as partial payment to be applied towards the payment of shares issued under the 2009 ESOP. The fair value of the option grant relating to the 2009 ESOP is estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model applying the following inputs: Number of Options on Issue Exercise Price Time to Maturity Underlying Share Price Expected Share Price Volatility Risk-free Interest Rate Dividend Yield 140,000 $1.350 3 years $1.340 24.73% 0.87% 5.97% 49 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 25: Employee Benefits (continued) (a) Employee Share Ownership Plan (continued) ESOP shares in issue - At started of year - Issued - Exercised - At year ended Number of shares Exercise Price $ 1,300,000 140,000 (1,300,000) 140,000 0.450 1.350 0.450 1.350 The number of ESOP shares on issue represents the number of shares issued under the 2009 ESOP on 15 January 2016 and 15 December 2020. The expected life of the shares is based on historical data, which may not eventuate in the future. The expected share price volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may not necessarily be the actual outcome. Details of options provided as remuneration and shares issued on the exercise of such options, together with terms and conditions of the options, can be found in the Remuneration Report on pages 11-15. (b) Expenses Arising from Share-based Payment Transactions Total expenses arising from share-based payment transactions recognised during the year as part of employee benefits expenses were as follows: Payments related to 2009 ESOP Shares (c) Superannuation Plan 2021 $ 2020 $ 17,234 - The company contributes to employee superannuation plans in accordance with contractual and statutory requirements. Defined contribution superannuation expense 587,000 473,085 2021 $ 2020 $ 50 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 26: Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies The group undertakes transactions in a range of financial instruments including: - Cash assets; - Trade and other receivables; - Trade and other payables; - Investments; and - Derivative financial instruments. The main risks arising from the group's financial instruments are energy price risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and credit risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks. (a) Energy Price Risk The group is exposed to energy price risk associated with the purchase and/or sale of electricity, gas and environmental products. The group manages energy risk through an established risk management framework consisting of policies to place appropriate risk limits on overall energy market exposures and transaction limits for approved energy commodities, requirements for delegations of authority on trading, regular reporting of exposures and segregation of duties. It is the group's policy to actively manage the energy price exposure arising from both forecast energy supply and retail customer energy load. The Group’s risk management policy for energy price risk is to hedge forecast future positions for up to 12 months into the future. Exposures to fluctuations in the wholesale market energy prices are managed through the use of various types of hedge contracts including derivative financial instruments, such as energy swaps, caps and options. The Group uses the following types of derivative instruments to mitigate energy price risk. - Forwards: A contract documenting the underlying reference rate (such as benchmark price or exchange rate) to be paid or received on a notional principal obligation at a future date. - Futures: An exchange-traded contract to buy or sell an asset for an agreed price at a future date. Futures are net- settled in cash without physical delivery of the underlying asset. - Swaps: A contract in which two parties exchange a series of cash flows for another. - Options: A contract in which the buyer has the right, but not the obligation, to buy (a call option) or sell (a put option) an instrument at a fixed price in the future. The seller has the corresponding obligation to fulfil the transaction if the buyer exercises the option. Derivatives are carried on the balance sheet at fair value. Movements in the price of the underlying variables, which cause the value of the contract to fluctuate, are reflected in the fair value of the derivative. The Group currently uses Cashflow hedge accounting relationships as detailed below: Objective of hedging arrangement To hedge our exposure to variability in the cash flows of a recognised asset or liability, or a highly probable forecast transaction caused by commodity price movements. Effective hedge portion The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recognised in the hedge reserve. Hedge ineffectiveness Certain determinants of fair value, such as credit charges included in derivatives, or mismatches between the timing of the instrument and the underlying item in the hedge relationship, can cause hedge ineffectiveness. Any ineffectiveness is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a change in the fair value of derivatives. Hedged item sold or repaid Amounts accumulated in the hedge reserve are transferred immediately to profit or loss. 51Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 26: Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) (a) Energy Price Risk (continued) Hedging instrument expires, is sold, is terminated or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting The amount previously deferred in the hedge reserve is only transferred to profit or loss when the hedged item is also recognised in profit or loss. Set out below are the fair values of derivatives designated in hedge accounting relationships at reporting date. Cashflow Hedge Current Assets $ 3,711,263 3,711,263 A number of derivative contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges of the Group's exposure to foreign exchange, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations.

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and net investments in foreign operations. The transactional currency exposure will be minimised by seeking economically favourable local suppliers. When it is required, the group will enter into forward exchange contracts to reduce and minimise its currency exposures. Foreign currency risk also arises on translation of the net assets of our non Australian controlled entities which have different functional currency. The foreign currency gains or losses arising from this risk are recorded through the foreign currency translation reserve. The group does not seek to hedge this exposure taking consideration of current net investment position. The carrying amount of the consolidated entity's foreign currency denominated financial assets and financial liabilities at the reporting date was as follows: Consolidated US dollars New Zealand dollars Philippine Peso (d) Credit Risk Assets 2021 225,054 18,018 157,453 400,525 2020 227,056 18,089 112,347 357,492 Liabilities 2021 16,342 - 11,953 28,295 2020 14,803 - 36,039 50,842 The group's maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is the carrying amount of those assets as indicated in the consolidated statement of financial position. Trade receivables consist of residential and business customers. Prior to contracting, customers must agree to and successfully pass a credit check and all results are individually assessed for approval by our credit team under the credit risk management policy. In the event that a credit check result is declined by our credit team all offers of supply and sale are withdrawn from the customers. The group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counter-party or any group of counter-parties having similar characteristics. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the group. 54 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021 Note 26: Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) (e) Liquidity Risk The group's objective is to be self-funding by the generation of positive cash flow.

These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key audit matter Estimation of unbilled revenue – Note 9 Unbilled revenue of $5,424,210 represents the value of gas and electricity supplied to customers for the period between the date of the last meter reading and the reporting date of 30 June 2021, of which the invoices had not been issued to the customers. Detailed calculations utilising estimates of the electricity and gas consumption of the Group’s customers and applicable pricing plans are used to determine the estimate of unbilled revenue. This area is a key audit matter due to the estimation uncertainty involved in determining customer consumption between the last invoice date and the end of the reporting period and the application of pricing assumptions to the calculation of unbilled revenue. Unbilled network expenses – Note 15 Management estimates energy consumption between the date of the last invoice date from the energy distributor to the Group, and the end of the reporting period when estimating network expenses. Detailed financial models utilising estimates of the electricity and gas consumption of the Group’s customers are used to determine the unbilled distribution costs of. Detailed calculations utilising estimates of the electricity and gas consumption of the Group’s customers are used to determine the unbilled network expenses of $5,929,900, as disclosed in Trade and Other Payables in Note 15 to the financial statements. This area is a key audit matter due to the estimation uncertainty involved in estimating the volume of energy purchased to satisfy the Groups customer demand since the last invoice. Derivative financial instruments – Note 23 The Group enters into derivative arrangements, such as energy price caps and swaps, in order to hedge its exposure to the variable and volatile wholesale energy prices. These financial instruments are classified by the Group as cash flow hedges. Accounting for derivative financial instruments involves judgement in the application of specific hedge accounting requirements under AASB 9: Financial Instruments. There is also a requirement to record the derivatives at fair value, which involves the application of further judgement. This area is a key audit matter due to the heightened complexities associated with the valuation and accounting for these derivative financial instruments. How our audit addressed the key audit matter Our procedures included, amongst others: • • Obtaining an understanding of the key controls management has in place to determine and review the estimate of unbilled revenue; Comparing the Group’s previous estimates against subsequent billings to evaluate the historical accuracy of the Group’s calculations and estimates; Agreeing managements reconciliation of purchase volumes to revenue volumes recognised; Challenging management’s calculations and assumptions and comparing: o • • average pricing rates used in the accrual calculation to historical and current rates; internally generated estimates of physical energy loss levels through the distribution process to published industry averages; and o • Assessing the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures in respect of unbilled revenue. Our procedures included, amongst others: • Obtaining an understanding of the process flows and key controls management has in place to determine the estimate of the accrued expenses; Testing the volume of wholesale energy purchased by the Group to AEMO invoices on a sample basis; Reconciling purchase volumes to revenue volumes recognised; Comparing post period-end invoices to management’s estimate of accrued expenses; and Assessing the appropriateness and adequacy of the disclosures in the financial report. • • • • Our procedures included, amongst others: • Obtaining an understanding of the internal risk management procedures and systems and controls associated with the origination and maintenance of complete and accurate information relating to derivative contracts; • Obtaining details of all swap and cap contracts to which the • • Group is a counterparty at the financial year end; Confirming directly with the counterparty the key terms and conditions of the agreement and pricing of an equivalent contract as of the year end date; Comparing the year end pricing provided by the counterparty to the contracted pricing, recalculating the fair value of the financial instrument and comparing to the fair values as recorded by management; • Obtaining and evaluating management’s hedge documentation of significant hedge relationships for compliance with AASB 9; and Assessing the appropriateness of the disclosures in the financial report. • 63 Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors’ for the financial report The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001. The Directors’ responsibility also includes such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
