Dear Shareholder
During the year the Company focussed heavily on achieving a rapid and successful entry into the very large and promising US olive oil market. The program began with the signing of the first major US supermarket account in July 2006 and RLA is pleased to announce that just over a year later the redisland brand has a US customer base which is more than three times the size of its Australian base and is still growing rapidly. Sales have again more than doubled and in the final quarter of the financial year the operating cashflow generated by increasing sales was close to neutral. In the second half of the year US sales exceeded Australian sales and retail sales data from the US continued its positive upwards trend.
The year saw many major milestones achieved and it culminated in the negotiation of a strategic merger with Australian Agricultural Investments Limited, one of the country’s leading olive growers.
This review summarises the key developments in the business during FY2007 and includes an outlook for FY2008 and beyond.
The milestone achievements and developments for RLA included:
-
Strategic merger to fundamentally enhance the RLA business
-
Annual sales up 248% to $10M
-
Near cashflow neutral operations in Q4 FY07
-
US sales exceed Australian sales in second half of FY07
-
US store count up to 7,417 compared with just over 2,000 in Australia
RLA’s business will change in FY08. The strategic merger with AAI will open up new paths to increased margins and new revenue channels. As a fully integrated business linking end product distribution with high value production RLA can expect to underpin its continued rapid growth with different sources of cashflow and earnings.

Merger Transaction
At the end of July 2007 the Company announced that it had agreed to merge with Australian Agricultural Investments Limited (AAI), one of Australia’s most innovative and productive olive grove management companies. The merger, which is only conditional upon shareholder approval, will link high volume consumer market distribution with production. The key features of the transaction are:
-
After the merger RLA will become the leading fully integrated olive oil company combining the leading brands with high quality and efficient production know-how
-
The merger will secure RLA’s oil supply and lift margins for the rapidly growing redisland brand
-
RLA will have an effective platform from which to examine further industry consolidation opportunities
-
Synergies and vertical integration should significantly enhance earnings, EPS and cashflow. The entire operation will move to Victoria saving transport costs
-
The new shareholders will hold approximately 43% of post-merger issued shares.
US Program
The Company has been focussed on achieving a successful and rapid entry into the US olive oil market. The US remains the largest consumer market for olive oil outside Europe and continues to experience growth. RLA has a management team based in the US and uses third party service providers to cover retail markets in every US state. Entry into the US market has required substantial non-recurrent investment and the level of product distribution achieved in RLA’s first year of operations in the US is exceptional. Retail sales data shows positive trends in consumer pull-though and the FY07 sales do not yet reflect the full year effect of the majority of US redisland stores. The following points summarise the status of the US program:
-
Total US stores signed lift to 7,417 compared with the original target of 4,000 set early in FY08
-
US sales accounted for more than 50% of sales for the second half. US sales exceed Australian sales as anticipated
-
US retail consumer sales data shows positive upward trends
-
US inventory levels have now been optimised significantly reducing deployment of working capital to inventory
-
The adverse USD exchange rate movement has put some pressure on RLA margins however most brands on sale in the US are imported and share the same underlying reasons to increase prices. RLA has provided for adverse exchange rate movement and has implemented opportunistic hedging contracts in light of recent favourable exchange rate movements
-
RLA’s coverage of the US retail market now extends across all US states. Company infrastructure on the ground in the US now sufficient to cope with significantly increasing sales.

Australian Operations
The 2007 crop ended with production of approximately 10 million litres of olive oil. This represented an increase over the previous year but was significantly down on expectations due to climatic issues. Some regions were more affected than others however the ongoing drought on the east coast of Australia does not appear to represent a fundamental long term problem for olive growers.
Retail prices stabilised after a prolonged period of price increases. Redisland prices increased approximately 5% during the year but this increase was still less than the level of price increases introduced by most major European competitors.
The redisland brand extended its overall lead as Australia’s leading brand of Australian olive oil during the year.
Subsequent to the announcement of the proposed merger with AAI, RLA commenced the process of moving its production operations to Victoria. This decision was taken both in anticipation of shareholder approval but also because north west Victoria is emerging as the key regions for olive oil production over the short to medium term. RLA is pleased to advise that its new bottling and logistics facility in the Melbourne suburb of Braeside is already operational and has commenced shipment of finished goods. When fully operational the new bottling facility will have capacity to meet RLA’s needs for several years to come.
During the year the Australian Taxation Office and the Federal Government announced proposed changes to the taxation treatment of non-forestry managed investment schemes. RLA previously stated that it did not support this change however the Company reports that despite the uncertainty created by the this issue, new investment structures have emerged which look likely to allow the continued investment in olive groves without reliance on tax incentives. RLA plans to further investigate opportunities in this area once the proposed merger has settled.

Financials
Revenues for the full financial year were $10.0M, up from $4.1M the previous year, with US sales contributing more than 50% of sales during the second half. RLA has invested heavily in securing distribution and consumer acceptance for its products in the US. However, investments in the Company’s core assets, which are its brands and distribution networks, have not been capitalised. Abnormals and provisions including US market entry costs, brand development investment and unrealised FX movements and employee options expense totalled $3.9M in FY07.
The Company’s financial result for the year was a loss of $4.7M including the non-recurrent items mentioned above. The Directors believe the investment in brands, distribution and consumer acceptance have placed the Company in a unique position in the Australian olive industry. The investments made to date have created a valuable platform for growth and have paved the way for vertical integration by way of the proposed merger with AAI. The Directors expect that the value of the Company’s achievements to date will become apparent with positive earnings, cashflow and ongoing rapid growth.

-
Creation of a platform for future growth which can be leveraged through the olive oil and other food staples sectors.
The Directors take this opportunity to sincerely thank management and staff for achieving so much this year as in previous years. The Directors also wish to thank investors for their patience and expect to report excellent achievements in FY08.

Indemnification and Insurance of Officers
Indemnification
The Company has agreed to indemnify the current Directors of the Company against all liabilities to another person (other than the Company or a related body corporate) that may arise from their position as directors of the Company, except where the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith.
The agreement stipulates that the Company will meet to the maximum extent permitted by law, the full amount of any such liabilities, including costs and expenses.
Insurance Premiums
As at the date of this report no insurance policies have been entered into.
Non-audit services
During the year, Stantons International, the Company’s auditor has not performed any other services in addition to their statutory duties.
The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the previous financial years by the auditor and is satisfied that the provision of these non-audit services during the year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise, the audit independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
-
all non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the Board to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor.
-
the non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards.
A copy of the auditors’ independence declaration as required under Section 307C of the Corporations Act is included on page 54 of the financial report.

A: Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (audited)
Key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company and the consolidated entity, including directors of the Company and other executives. Key management personnel comprise the directors of the Company and executives for the Company and the consolidated entity.
Compensation levels for key management personnel of the Company and the consolidated entity are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced directors and executives.
The remuneration structures explained below are designed to attract suitably qualified candidates, reward the achievement of strategic objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. The compensation structures take into account:
-
the capability and experience of the key management personnel
-
the key management personnel’s ability to control the relevant segments performance
-
the consolidated entity’s performance including:
-
the consolidated entity’s earnings
-
the growth in share price and delivering constant returns on shareholder wealth
-
the amount of incentives within each key management person’s compensation.
Compensation packages include a mix of fixed and variable compensation and short-term and long-term performancebased incentives designed to reward key management personnel for meeting or exceeding their financial and personal objectives. In addition to their salaries, the consolidated entity also provides non-cash benefits to its key management personnel. The consolidated entity does not have any scheme relating to retirement benefits for its key management personnel.
Fixed compensation
Fixed compensation consists of base compensation, as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds. Compensation levels are reviewed annually by the Board through a process that considers individual, segment and overall performance of the consolidated entity.
Benefits
Key management personnel may receive benefits such as car allowances, and the Company pays fringe benefits tax on these benefits.
Short-term incentives
Certain key management personnel receive short-term incentives (STI) in the form of cash. Each year, the Board considers the appropriate targets and key performance indicators (KPIs). The Board is also responsible for assessing whether the KPIs are met.
Long-term incentives
Long-term incentives are provided to key management personnel via the Redisland Australia Limited Employee Option Scheme (refer to Note 16 to the financial statements).

This statement summarises the corporate governance practices adopted by the Board. Redisland Australia’s objective is to achieve best practice in corporate governance, and the Company’s officers and employees are committed to achieving this objective.
In addition to the information contained in this statement, the Company’s website at www.redislandaustralia.com contains details of its corporate governance procedures and practices.
ASX Best Practice Recommendations
The ASX Listing Rules require listed companies to include in their Annual Report a statement disclosing the extent to which they have complied with the ASX Best Practice Recommendations in the reporting year. The recommendations are not prescriptive and if a company considers that a recommendation is inappropriate having regard to its particular circumstances, the Company has the flexibility not to adopt it. Where the Company considered it was not appropriate to presently comply with a particular recommendation the reasons are set out in the latter part of this statement.
Board of Directors
Role of the Board
The Board’s primary responsibility is to oversee the Company’s business activities and management for the benefit of shareholders by:
-
(i) setting objectives, goals and strategic direction with management with a view to maximising shareholder value;
-
(ii) overseeing the financial position and monitoring the business and affairs of the Company;
-
(iii) establishing corporate governance, ethical, environmental and health and safety standards;
-
(iv) ensuring significant business risks are identified and appropriately managed; and
-
(v) ensuring the composition of the Board is appropriate, selecting directors for appointment to the Board and reviewing the performance of the Board and the contributions of individual directors.
The Board has delegated responsibilities and authorities to management to enable management to conduct the Company’s day to day activities. Matters which are not covered by these delegations, such as approvals which exceed certain limits, require Board approval.
Board composition
The Board comprises five directors including one as Managing Director.
The Directors are subject to election by shareholders. All Directors, apart from the Managing Director, are subject to reelection by rotation within every three years. The Company’s Constitution provides that one-third of the Directors retire by rotation at each AGM. Those Directors who are retiring may submit themselves for re-election by shareholders, including any Director appointed to fill a casual vacancy since the date of the previous AGM. The composition of the Board is reviewed at least annually to ensure the balance of skills and experience is appropriate. The Directors have a broad range of qualifications, experience and expertise in the olive oil and finance industries. The skills, experience and expertise of Directors are set out in the Directors’ Report.
The names of the Directors in office at the date of this Report, the date of their appointment, their status as non-executive, executive or independent Directors, whether they are retiring by rotation and seeking re-election by shareholders at the 2007 AGM, are set out in the Directors’ Report.
Independence of non-executive directors
The Board considers an independent director to be a non-executive director who meets the criteria for independence included in the ASX Best Practice Recommendations. The Board considers that Mr Paul Miller meets these criteria. He has no material business or contractual relationship with the Company, other than as a director, and no conflicts of interest which could interfere with the exercise of independent judgement. Accordingly, he is considered to be independent.

C O R P O R A T E G O V E R N A N C E S T A T E M E N T ( c o n t ’ d )
Independent professional advice
The Board has adopted a formal policy on access to independent professional advice which provides that Directors are entitled to seek independent professional advice for the purposes of the proper performance of their duties. The advice is at the Company’s expense, subject to the prior approval of the Chairman. Advice so obtained is to be made available to all Directors.
Meetings
The Board held 4 scheduled meetings during the reporting year and no unscheduled meetings were held during that year. Senior management attended and made presentations at the Board Meetings as considered appropriate and were available for questioning by Directors.
Board committees
The Board has not formally constituted an audit committee. The entire board currently undertakes the duties of an audit committee which includes:
-
supervising the engagement of the external auditor and monitoring their performance;
-
reviewing the effectiveness of management information and other systems of internal control;
-
reviewing all areas of significant financial risk and arrangements in place to contain those to acceptable levels;
-
reviewing significant transactions that are not a normal part of the Company’s business;
-
reviewing the year-end and interim financial information and ASX reporting statements;
-
monitoring the internal controls and accounting compliance with the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules, external audit reports and ensure prompt remedial action where required; and
-
reviewing the Company’s financial statements and accounting procedures.
The Company’s auditor is invited to attend the annual general meeting and the Company supports the principle of the auditor being available to answer questions on the conduct of the audit and the content of the audit report.
The Board has not formally constituted a nomination committee or remuneration committee. The whole Board conducts the functions of a nomination committee and remuneration committee.
Evaluation of Board performance
During the reporting year an evaluation of the Board and key executive was carried out on an informal basis. As the activities of the Company develop, it will establish more formal evaluation procedures, including quantitative measures of performance.
Remuneration policies
Executive Directors and key executives are remunerated by way of a salary or consultancy fees, commensurate with their required level of services. Non-executive Directors receive a fixed monthly fee for their services. Non-executive Directors’ fees are capped at $100,000 per annum.
Attendance at Board and Committee meetings
The attendance of Directors at Board meetings during the year is detailed in the Directors’ Report.
Managing business risks and internal control framework
The Board acknowledges that it is responsible for the overall internal control framework, but recognises that no cost effective internal control system will preclude all errors and irregularities. To assist in discharging this responsibility the Board has instigated an internal control framework that includes the following:

Retirement benefits for non-executive directors
The Company does not have any scheme relating to retirement benefits for non-executive Directors.
ASX Guidelines on Corporate Governance
Pursuant to ASX Listing Rules the Company must provide a statement disclosing the extent to which the ASX best practice recommendations have been not been followed in the reporting year. The Company sets out below an explanation of the areas where Redisland Australia does not presently comply with ASX best practice recommendations.
Composition of the Board
A majority of the Board of directors is not comprised of independent directors under the ASX definition of independence, as set out in the ASX Corporate Governance Council Best Practice Recommendations. The Company is in its early stages of development and does not consider it appropriate nor cost effective to adopt this recommendation.
Each individual member of the Board is satisfied that whilst the Company may not comply with best practice recommendations 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, the Board always acts with independence and in accordance with the Statement of Corporate Governance.
Website
The ASX guidelines also prescribe that the Company should maintain a dedicated corporate governance information section on its website. Such a dedicated information section is not presently available on the Company’s website, although the annual financial report will be posted to the website and the Statement of Corporate Governance can be viewed there.
Board committees
The Company does not presently have a separate audit, nomination or remuneration committee as required by best practice recommendations 4.2, 2.4 and 9.2, respectively. The Company is in its early stages of development and as such, the entire Board conducts the function of such committees. The duties of such committees have been considered and adopted by the Board. The board invites persons with relevant industry and financial experience when required to carry out the functions of such committees.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Reporting entity
RedIsland Australia Limited (the “Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2007 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “consolidated entity”).
Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards (”AASBs”) (including Australian interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (”AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial report of the consolidated entity also complies with the International Financial Reporting Standards (”IFRSs”) and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 27 September 2007.
Basis of measurement
The financial report is prepared on the accruals basis and the historical cost basis.
Going concern basis
The directors have prepared the financial statements on the basis of going concern, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The directors believe this to be appropriate for the following reasons:
-
Subsequent to balance date, the Company acquired 100% interest in Australian Agricultural Investments Limited and its controlled entities (The AAI Group). This acquisition is expected to generate positive cashflow and profitable operations for the consolidated entity in the 2008 financial year;
-
The AAI Group has experienced consistent and substantial growth in the past two years, and the Board believes that it is reasonable to expect this to continue and contribute to Redisland’s working capital and operating results;
-
The corporate and administrative cost overheads of Redisland will be spread over a greater number of business units, hence improving cost efficiencies;
-
The acquisition of the AAI Group will result in an increase in net asset position of over $7.0m and will facilitate the sourcing of additional bank financing to fund its continuing expansion of Redisland sales in the US and other markets.
Based on the above, the directors are confident that the consolidated entity will be able to continue operations into the foreseeable future.
Functional and presentation currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency and the functional currency of the majority of the consolidated entity.
Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of a financial report in conformity with AASBs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. These accounting policies have been consistently applied by each entity in the consolidated entity.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Basis of preparation (cont’d)
In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are described in the following notes:
-
(a) Note 16 – measurement of share-based payments
-
(b) Note 17 – accounting for an arrangement containing a lease
Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied consistently by all entities in the consolidated entity.
The consolidated entity has elected to apply the following pronouncement to the annual reporting period beginning 1 July 2006:
- revised AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements (issued October 2006).
This includes applying the pronouncement to the comparatives in accordance with AASB 108 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors . No adjustments to any of the financial statements were required for the above pronouncement, but certain disclosures are no longer required and have therefore been omitted.
New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been identified as those which may impact the entity in the period of initial application. They are available for early adoption at 30 June 2007, but have not been applied in preparing this financial report:
-
AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and AASB 2005-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASB 132, AASB 101, AASB 114, AASB 117, AASB 133, AASB 139, AASB 1, AASB 4, AASB 1023 and AASB 1038]. AASB & and AASB 2005-10 are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2007. The consolidated entity has not adopted the standards early. Application of the standards will not affect any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements, but will impact the type of information disclosed in relation to the consolidated entity’s and the parent entity’s financial instruments.
-
AASB-I 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment . AASB-I 10 is applicable to reporting periods commencing on or after 1 November 2006. The consolidated entity has not recognised an impairment loss in relation to goodwill or financial assets carried at cost in an interim reporting period but subsequently reversed the impairment loss in the annual report. Application of the interpretation will therefore have no impact on the consolidated entity’s or the parent entity’s financial statements.
Principles of consolidation
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the consolidated entity. Control exists when the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that presently are exercisable are taken into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control commences until the date control ceases.
In the Company’s financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost.
Minority interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated income statement and balance sheet respectively.
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-group balances, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Foreign currency
Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of consolidated entity entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the foreign exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations, excluding foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
The income and expenses of foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies are translated to Australian dollars at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Prior to translating the financial statements of foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, its financial statements for the current period are restated to account for changes in the general purchasing power of the local currency. The restatement is based on relevant price indices at the reporting date.
Foreign currency translation differences arising on translation of foreign operations are recognised directly in equity. Since 1 January 2004, the consolidated entity’s date of transition to AASBs, such differences have been recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve (FCTR). When a foreign operation is disposed of, in part or in full, the relevant amount in the FCTR is transferred to profit or loss.
Financial instruments
Non-derivative financial instruments
Non-derivative financial instruments comprise investments in equity and debt securities, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, loans and borrowings, and trade and other payables.
Non-derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus, for instruments not at fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs, except as described below. Subsequent to initial recognition nonderivative financial instruments are measured as described below.
A financial instrument is recognised if the consolidated entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the consolidated entity’s contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire or if the consolidated entity transfers the financial asset to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are accounted for at trade date, i.e., the date that the consolidated entity commits itself to purchase or sell the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised if the consolidated entity’s obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits.
Share capital
Incremental costs directly attributable to issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit.
Property, plant and equipment
Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.

Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the consolidated entity and its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Plant and equipment 1 to 3 years Motor vehicles 10 years Office furniture and equipment 5 to 10 years Leasehold improvements 3 to 5 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reassessed at the reporting date.
Leased assets
Leases under which the consolidated entity assumes substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to the initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to the asset.
Other leases are operating leases and the leased assets are not recognised in the consolidated entity’s balance sheet.
The consolidated entity adopted Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease , which is mandatory for annual reports beginning on or after 1 January 2006, in its 2006 consolidated financial statements.
Impairment
Financial assets
A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.
An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised.
Non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the consolidated entity’s non-financial assets, other than inventories, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet available for use, recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date.
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that largely are independent from other assets and groups. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price
Employee Benefits
Wages and salaries, annual leave, sick leave and long service leave
Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and are capable of being measured reliably.
Provisions made in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at their nominal values based on expected rates of pay. The provision for long service leave is measured as at present value of the estimated future cash flows.
Share-based payments
The consolidated entity provides benefits to employees (including directors) of the consolidated entity in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares.
The Company operates an incentive scheme to provide these benefits, known as the Redisland Australia Employee Option Scheme (“Scheme”) approved at the general meeting on 30 May 2003.
The cost of these share-based payment transactions is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a binomial or Black-Sholes model.
In valuing share-based payment transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Redisland Australia Limited (‘market conditions’).
The cost of share-based payment transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (‘vesting date’).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the consolidated, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition.
Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification.
Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share.
Revenue
Revenues are recognised at fair value of the consideration received net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST) payable to the taxation authority. Exchange of goods of services of the same nature with any cash consideration is not recognised as revenue.
Services
Revenue from services is recognised in profit or loss.

Interest income
Interest income is recognised as it accrues.
Lease payments
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.
Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Income tax
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:
-
except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
-
in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:
-
except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
-
in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the income statement.
Redisland Australia Limited and its subsidiaries have unused tax losses. However, no deferred tax balances have been recognised, as it is considered that asset recognition criteria have not been met at this time.
Goods and Services Tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (ATO). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.
Loans and borrowings
Loans are recognised at their principal amount, subject to set-off arrangements. Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred.
Payables
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the consolidated entity. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 60 days.
Earnings per share
The consolidated entity presents basic earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share does not show an inferior view of the earnings performance of the consolidated entity than is shown by EPS and is not disclosed for this reason.
Segment reporting
A segment is a distinguishable component of the consolidated entity that is engaged either in providing related products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments. The consolidated entity’s primary format for segment reporting is based on business segments.
Determination of fair values
A number of the consolidated entity’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.
Property, plant and equipment
The fair value of property, plant and equipment recognised as a result of business combination is based on market values. The market value of items of plant, equipment, fixtures and fittings is based on the quoted market prices for similar items.
Inventory
The fair value of inventory acquired in a business combination is determined based on its estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and sale, and a reasonable profit margin based on the effort required to complete and sell the inventory.
Trade and other receivables
The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted a the market rate of interest at the reporting date.
Share-based payment transactions
The fair value of incentive options is measured using the Black-Sholes model. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value.

The Company operates an incentive scheme known as the Redisland Australia Employee Option Scheme (“Scheme”) approved at the general meeting on 30 May 2003.
The maximum number of options that can be granted under the Scheme is restricted to 5% of the total issued shares as at the date of the grant of options. There is no issue price for any options granted under the Scheme.
Each option is convertible to one ordinary share. The exercise price of the options, determined in accordance with the terms of the plan, is the highest of:
-
110% of the market price of the Company’s shares on the date on which the options are issued;
-
20 cents; or
-
any greater price determined by the Directors.

16. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS (cont’d)
All options expire on the earlier of their expiry date or termination of the employee’s employment. The vesting terms of the options granted on 17 August 2006 are as follows:
Options may be exercised in the proportions listed in Column A below at any time between the corresponding period listed in Column B below and 17 August 2011:
| Column A | Column B |
|---|---|
| 25% | Immediately (17 August 2006) |
| 25% | 6 months (17 February 2007) |
| 25% | 12 months (17 August 2007) |
| 25% | 24 months (17 August 2008) |
There are no voting or dividend rights attaching to the options. There are no voting rights attached to the unissued ordinary shares. Voting rights will be attached to the unissued ordinary shares when the options have been exercised.
The fair value of the options is calculated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes model and allocated to each reporting period evenly over the period from grant date to vesting date . The value disclosed is the portion of the fair value of the options allocated to this reporting period. The following table gives the assumptions made in determining the fair value of options on grant date:
| the fair value of options on grant | date: | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grant date | 17 August 2006 | 17 August 2006 | 17 August 2006 | 17 August 2006 |

| Non listed status discount | 35.00% | 35.00% | 35.00% | 35.00% |
The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may also not necessarily be the actual outcome.
During the year ended 30 June 2007 there were no options exercised (2006: nil).
The number and weighted average exercise prices (“WAEP”) of options are as follows:
| Outstanding at the beginning of the year Forfeited during the year Exercised during the year Granted during the year Outstanding at the end of the year Exercisable at the end of the year Employee expenses Share options granted – equity settled |

21. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DISCLOSURE
The consolidated entity’s principal financial instruments comprise bank loans, finance leases, cash and short-term deposits. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the consolidated entity’s operations.
The consolidated entity has various other financial instruments such as trade debtors and trade creditors, which arise directly from its operations.
It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the consolidated entity’s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken.
The main risks arising from the consolidated entity’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk, foreign currency risk and credit risk. The board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.
Interest rate risk
The consolidated entity’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the consolidated entity’s long term debt obligations.
Cash includes funds held in term deposits and cheque accounts during the year, which earned interest at rates ranging between 0% and 5.50%, depending on account balances.
The following annual interest rates apply to the consolidated entity’s credit facilities:
Bank debtors financing facilities 11.60% Lease liabilities 4.69% to 7.81%
All other financial assets and liabilities are non-interest bearing.
Foreign currency risk
The consolidated entity is exposed to foreign currency on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than Australian Dollars. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily Euro and US Dollars.
At this stage, the consolidated entity does not seek to hedge this exposure.
Credit risk
The credit risk on financial assets of the consolidated entity which have been recognised on the balance sheet is generally the carrying amount, net of any provision for doubtful debts.
The consolidated entity continuously monitors credit risks arising from its trade receivables which are principally with significant and reputable companies.
The total credit risk exposure of the consolidated entity could be considered to include the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the realisable amount. At balance sheet date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the balance sheet.
Liquidity risk
The consolidated entity’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans, and finance leases.
Sensitivity analysis
In managing interest rate and currency risks the Group’s endeavours to reduce the impact of short-term fluctuations on the Group’s earnings. Over the longer term, however, permanent changes in foreign exchange and interest rates will have an impact on consolidated earnings, although the extent of that impact will depend on the level of cash resources held by the consolidated entity. A general increase of one percentage point in interest rates would not be expected to materially impact earnings.
Fair values
The directors consider that the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximates their fair values (2006: net fair value).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF REDISLAND AUSTRALIA LIMITED
Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Redisland Australia Limited, which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2007, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
As permitted by the Corporations Regulations 2001, the Company has disclosed the information about the remuneration of directors and executives (“remuneration disclosures”), required by Australian Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures, under the heading “Remuneration report” in the Directors’ report and not the financial report. We have audited these remuneration disclosures.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report and the AASB 124 remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 . This responsibility includes designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial report of the Group, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.
The directors of the Company are also responsible for the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. Our responsibility is also to express an opinion that the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report comply with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 124.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments,
==> picture [173 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
52
the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
Auditor’s Opinion
-

-
(a) the financial report of Redisland Australia Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

-
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
-
