1. The financial information in this table has been derived from the audited financial statements. The adjusted NPAT is non-IFRS financial information and has not been audited in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.

2. The Group’s acquisition policy is to defer a component of the purchase price, which is determined by future financial results. An estimate of the contingent consideration is made at the time of acquisition and is reviewed and varied at balance date if estimates change, or payments are made. This adjustment can be a loss (if increased) or a profit (if reduced). Where an estimate or payment is reduced, an offsetting adjustment (impairment) may be made to the carrying value.

3. Where the carrying value of a controlled entity exceeds the fair value an impairment expense is recognized during the period.

4. Gain/loss on deconsolidation are excluded from adjusted NPAT. Such adjustments will only occur in future if further sales of this type are made.

5. The costs associated with the misconduct by the former Managing Director of Austbrokers Canberra incurred from 1 January 2019 to 30 June 2019 have been excluded from adjusted NPAT.

6. Movement in value of the put option liability

7. Insurance broking portfolios may be sold from time to time and any gains/loss from sale are excluded from adjusted NPAT.

8. The adjustments to carrying values of associates or controlled entities arise where the Group increases its equity in associates whereupon they became controlled entities or decreases its equity in a controlled entity and it becomes an associate (deconsolidated). As required by accounting standards the carrying values for the existing investments have been adjusted to fair value and the increase included in net profit. Such adjustments will only occur in future if further acquisitions or sales of this type are made.

9. Amortisation expense is a non-cash item.

1. Underlying Results: In order to give a more comprehensive view of performance, figures include results from ‘associates’ (not consolidated in the financial statements) at an aggregate 100% of all business revenues, expenses and profits with those of the consolidated businesses before deducting outside shareholder interests.

2. Adjusted NPAT is used by management and the board to assess operational performance.

FY20 OUTLOOK AND GUIDANCE

During FY20 the group anticipates strong growth from Insurance Broking in Australia and New Zealand as well the Underwriting Agencies. This will be reduced by several factors:

  • Reduced interest rates;

  • Lease Accounting Changes;

  • Reduced revenues in Canberra, post restructuring;

  • Delayed effect of remediation to health and rehabilitation service lines;

  • Lag to benefit from cost-out activities;

  • Planned shareholding sell-downs to support succession planning in broker partners;

  • Major acquisition legal and financing costs (which have been provided for in the guidance calculations in the event that a major acquisition such as Coverforce takes place).

Based on the above, we believe the group will achieve Adjusted NPAT growth of 4% to 6% in FY20. Note, this growth rate excludes the positive impact that may arise from new acquisitions or shareholding increases.

FY20 will be a year of change to enable consistent profit growth for future years.

  • Enhanced value and benefits to Network partners;

  • Complete remediation of Risk Services and Canberra;

  • Reduced Corporate overheads;

  • Optimised Portfolio.

  • As an industry, commercial General Insurers and brokers have gained from pricing tailwinds in the past few years as premiums have hardened and continues to grow but at a slower rate

  • AUB has a positive outlook on the underwriting cycle: our premise is that we are in year 3 or 4 of a positive 6-7 year upswing in the global underwriting cycle and Lloyd’s of London’s recent losses are a basis for a potential extension to this cycle. Hardening underwriting terms should drive premium and revenue growth for AUB

  • Investment income for the industry has declined due to a low interest rate environment

  • Adoption of technology to help innovate product design, distribution, process efficiency and customer experience is becoming a strategic imperative

  • To maintain profitability, brokers will have to maintain to focus on cost management initiatives

Adjusted NPAT comprises consolidated profit after tax adjusted for value adjustments for the carrying value of associates, after tax profits on the sale of portfolios, interests in associates and controlled entities, contingent consideration adjustments, and income tax credits arising from the recognition of deferred tax assets. It is used consistently and without bias year on year for comparability. A reconciliation to statutory profit is provided in the appendix to this Presentation.
