Directors’ Report
BlackWall Limited will pay a final dividend of 2.6 cents per share bringing the full year dividend to 5.0 cents per share.
BlackWall Limited (BlackWall, BWF or the Group) is now a simple business. We generate annuity income from the real estate investment structures that we manage. This income comes in the forms of management, transactional and performance fees as well as distribution income from the strategic investments we hold in our funds. We aim to grow our assets under management and therefore our fee income which results in dividend growth for our shareholders.
Our dividends over the past 5 years are shown below. Over this period our total shareholder return has averaged 18% p.a. The final dividend declared of 2.6 cps brings our full year dividend to 5.0 cps. This reflects a yield of 10% on a share price of $0.52, rising to 12% when franking is included.

| Net Proft after Tax from Continuing Operations | 3,054 | 4,292 |
Net profit after tax from continuing operations was $3.1 million in 2021, a decrease of $1.2 million from 2020. However, this was largely driven by the decrease in non-cash investment income as a result of a one-off gain on the WOTSO demerger in 2020 ($2.7 million). This aside, BWF’s profitability has improved with operating revenue staying flat and expenses decreasing by $0.9 million. Expenses have decreased due to a reduction in headcount as a result of the WOTSO demerger and a reduction in associated overheads. This has been a major driver in operating cash flows rising 42% to $3.8 million.

The Year that Was
The year started and ended in lockdown for much of Australia, yet BlackWall and its funds took some significant steps forward and are well positioned for the future.

Formation of WOTSO Property
The stapling of BlackWall Property Trust (BWR) to WOTSO Limited to form Australia’s first listed flexible property vehicle, WOTSO Property, was successfully completed in February 2021. Following the acquisition of 3 new assets in the last 6 months, WOT owns over 87,000 sqm of property and operates nearly 37,000 sqm of flexible workspaces under the WOTSO brand. Property valuations grew by $8.4 million, whilst net debt is at a modest 25%. We continue to look for acquisition opportunities focusing on suburban and regional assets that would suit the WOTSO flexi property offering.
The WOTSO WorkSpace business experienced healthy growth in its turnover as it recovered from the initial COVID restrictions. Its annualised turnover reached $21 million in June 2021, some 30% above its pre-COVID levels. WOTSO’s suburban focus has benefitted from the shift to flexible work practices and its near to home solution is helping businesses of all sizes adapt to these new workforce trends. The most recent lockdowns in Australia are having an effect on turnover as WOTSO again provides support to its members via a ‘penalty-free’ suspension policy. However, this is somewhat mitigated by government assistance being granted through payroll support and rent relief packages. Once restrictions ease, we expect to see WOTSO’s revenue numbers quickly bounce back as they did last year. Further information on WOT can be found in its Annual Report.
We have grown our area under management to 130,000 sqm following the acquisition of 3 new properties in the last 6 months, 1 in Brookvale, NSW and 2 in Newcastle, NSW. We have also overseen the development of existing assets, namely the properties at North Strathfield, NSW and Fortitude Valley, QLD, which has seen an increase of approximately 1,600 sqm in net lettable area (NLA) and improvement of the assets.

Penrith Fund Completion
The PIPES Mortgage fund, secured against the property at 120 Mulgoa Rd, Penrith, came to the end of its 7 year period in December 2020. The fund paid annual distributions of 9% through its life and a final bonus of 16% bringing its total internal rate of return to 11%. The property also joined WOT as part of the stapling. BlackWall received performance fees of $1,031,000. We think the PIPES structure will be applicable to future opportunities and remains attractive to investors as it allows participation in the capital growth of an asset whilst receiving fixed distributions.

What Being a Good Corporate Citizen Means to Us
It has become standard practice to comment on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Annual Reports. To us, CSR is about “doing the right thing” and this is what guides our corporate behaviour. Our COVID relief packages to our tenants and members reflected this and have resulted in the provision of $4.8 million in rent relief since the start of the pandemic. We prefer to put into place smaller, more tangible programmes and practices rather than set grandiose goals such as “carbon neutrality”. Some examples of what we mean are below.
Sustainable Fit Outs
Walk into any WOTSO site and you will immediately know you are in one. Why? Our reuse of materials. We’ve been known to turn go-kart tyres into lights, computer floor tiling into walls or server racks into tables. We upcycle, reuse and as a result reduce waste in all of our buildings. It has also helped set the “vibe” for WOTSO’s flexible spaces and communities. The workspaces are homely and the community created tends to be a supportive one as a result.
==> picture [249 x 191] intentionally omitted <==
Charity and Not for Profit Support
There are thousands of worthy not for profits deserving of resources, which makes the decision of who and how to support them a difficult one. We commit to a small group of organisations that have a personal affiliation with our leaders and staff. We have long lasting relationships with local sporting groups and charities such as The Kid’s Cancer Project (TKCP). We like engaging with groups that our staff can be involved in as well. In September all of our staff and WOTSO sites are participating in the TKCP Better Challenge (betterchallenge. org.au) to run walk or roll 90km.

==> picture [129 x 129] intentionally omitted <==
Employee Development
Across our businesses we have a young workforce. The newly established BlackWOT Academy gives our employees access to personal development courses that are not related to their employment. The goal is for our employees to grow personally as well as professionally. Sometimes this may even lead to a career change, something that we would support as we recognise the long-term benefits for our business and that individual.
We are particularly proud of our Disability Employment Service initiative in which many of our WOTSO sites now participate. We have 7 employees (and growing) who each have a real impact on the WOTSO communities they work within.
COVID and The Year Ahead
As we all continue to suffer from pandemic fatigue, we are firmly of the view that wide-spread vaccination is the only path out of COVID. WOTSO’s Vaccine for Caffeine incentive programme is our way of encouraging and supporting Australia’s vaccination efforts. WOTSO members who have received at least one vaccine dose will have the chance to win a share of $27,000 worth of vouchers to spend at their favourite local cafe, restaurant or business. Hopefully, by the time we are writing our half year report, life will be somewhat returning to normal. As a business, we are well placed across the board for what comes next and are confident that our flexible property strategy will allow us to capitalise on opportunities in a unique market.

2. COVID Impact
Property management fees are charged by BWF on a percentage of gross property income. In the current financial year WOTSO Property has continued to provide rent relief to tenants in the form of rent waivers and deferrals as required by the mandatory code of conduct between landlords and tenants, and this has resulted in a reduction of property management fee income.
BWF qualified for the government’s JobKeeper program until the program ceased at the end of March 2021. The government stimulus revenue received for the current financial year was $504,000 (2020: $225,000).
3. Revenue

21. Subsequent Events
The impact of the COVID pandemic is ongoing. It is not practical to estimate the potential impact, positive or negative, after the reporting date on the various revenue streams and the performance of the Group. The situation is dependent on measures imposed by the federal and state governments, and other countries, such as maintaining social distancing requirements, quarantine, travel restrictions and any economic stimulus that may be provided.
The Board has declared a final fully franked dividend of 2.6 cents per share to be paid on 15 September 2021.
To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, since the end of the financial year there have been no other matters or circumstances that have materially affected the Group’s operations or may materially affect its operations, state of affairs or the results of operations in future financial years.

(a) Financial Risk Management
The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s principal financial instruments are cash, financial assets and borrowings. Additionally, the Group has various other financial instruments such as trade debtors and trade creditors, which arise directly from its operations.
This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and overseeing of the risk management framework. It monitors the Group’s risk exposure by regularly reviewing finance and property markets. The Group holds the following major financial instruments:
| instruments: | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2021 | 2020 | |
| $’000 | $’000 | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 3,133 | 2,724 |
| Investment in WOTSO Property | 22,602 | - |
| Investment in BWR | - | 16,313 |
| Investment in WOTSO Limited | - | 3,893 |
(b) Sensitivity Analysis
The Group is not exposed to any material credit, interest or liquidity risks. There are no subsidiaries in the group subject to material foreign exchange risk.
Investment in WOT securities are subject to price risk, a 10% decrease in the ASX trading price (from the price at 30 June 2021, i.e. $1.47 per security) would result in an unrealised loss after tax of $1,639,000.
(c) Capital Management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to:
-
safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders; and
-
maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares, buy-back shares, purchase or sell assets.
The parent entity had no contingencies or capital commitments at 30 June 2021 (2020: Nil). The accounting policies of the parent entity are consistent with those of the consolidated entity, as disclosed in Note 29.

(e) Fair Value Measurements
(i) Fair Value Hierarchy
The Group classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the subjectivity of the inputs used in making measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
-
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
-
Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair value of financial assets traded in active markets is subsequently based on their quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period without any deduction for estimated future selling costs. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price.
The following table presents the Group’s financial assets measured at fair value as at 30 June. Refer to the Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgment note for further details of assumptions used and how fair values are measured.
| are measured. | ||||

| Financial assets | 16,313 | - | 3,893 | 20,206 |
(ii) Valuation Techniques Used To Derive Level 3 Fair Values
The fair value of the unlisted securities is determined using a discounted cash flow model.
(iii) Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Observable Inputs (Level 3)
The following table is a reconciliation of the movements in financial assets classified as Level 3 for the year ended 30 June:
| $’000 | ||
|---|---|---|
| At 30 June 2021 | ||
| Balance at the beginning of the year | 3,893 | |
| Reduction due to WOTSO Limited forming part of the WOTSO Property stapled security | (3,893) | |

- 802 (802) 1,193 2,700 3,893 |
There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 and 3 in the prior year. In the current year the investment in WOTSO Limited (Level 3) was converted into Level 1 as a result of forming part of the listed stapled security WOTSO Property.

28. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The Directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends in economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.
Key Estimates - Impairment
The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that may lead to impairment of assets.
Key Estimates - Financial Assets
All financial assets at Fair Value Through the Profit or Loss (FVTPL) have been classified as financial assets, with gains and losses recognised as profit or loss.
The fair value of the listed securities is based on the closing price from the Australian Securities Exchange as
at the reporting date.
The fair value of financial instruments not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques
including a discounted cash flow model. The main inputs used include:

29. Statement of Significant Accounting Policies
BlackWall Limited (“BWF”) is a publicly listed company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The financial statements for the Group were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on the date they were issued.
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements of the Company also comply with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.
BWF is a group of the kind referred to in ASIC Instrument 2016/191 and, in accordance with that Instrument, amounts in the Directors’ Report and the financial statements are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of the financial statements. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
Segment Reporting
AASB 8 Operating Segments requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance. The Group’s primary format for segment reporting is based on business segments. The business segments are determined based on the Group management and internal reporting structure. Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. The operating businesses are organised and managed separately according to the nature of the products and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and serves different markets
The Group has adopted three reporting segments: BlackWall, Investments, and Corporate.
The BlackWall segment engages in funds and asset management as well as property services that include property management, leasing and general property consultancy. Income earned by the segment includes recurring income from fund and asset management mandates and transaction-based income typically related to those mandates. Management treats these operations as one fee earning operating segment. The assets assigned to the segment are those it is required to hold to comply with its AFSL capital adequacy requirements.
The Investments segment includes interests in property related investments such as units in related party listed and unlisted unit trusts, loans and cash. It generates income from dividends, distributions and interest.
Presentation of Financial Statements
Both the functional and presentation currency of BWF and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars. Various functional currencies including New Zealand Dollar results are translated to presentation currency.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of BWF and its subsidiaries. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 23 - Controlled Entities. All controlled entities have a June financial year end and use consistent accounting policies. Investments in subsidiaries held by the Group are accounted for at cost, less any impairment charges (refer to Note 25 - Parent Entity Information).
BlackWall Limited June 2021 17
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
Intercompany Balances
All intercompany balances and transactions between entities in the Group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the parent entity.
Associates
Interests in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the group’s share of the post acquisition profits or losses of the investee in profit or loss. Dividends received or receivable from associates are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
When the group’s share of losses in an equity accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity. The carrying amount of equity accounted investments is tested for impairment in accordance with these policies.
Non-Controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests (not held by the Group) are allocated their share of net profit and comprehensive income after tax in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and are presented within equity in the consolidated balance sheet, separately from parent shareholders’ equity. Comprehensive income after tax in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are presented within equity in the consolidated balance sheet, separately from parent shareholders’ equity.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of an item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit and loss as incurred.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a diminishing value basis over their useful lives to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The estimated useful lives used for each class of depreciable assets are:
| Furniture, fxtures and fttings Ofce equipment |
over 2 to 10 years over 4 to 10 years |
|---|---|
Right of use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis, with reference to the remaining lease term, including options to extend if reasonably certain to extend the lease term.
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
Disposal
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.
Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible 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. In assessing value in use, either the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset, or the income of the asset is capitalised at its relevant capitalisation rate.
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are expensed to the profit and loss.
Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indication 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 amortisation, if no impairment loss has been recognised.
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 at fair value plus, for instruments not at fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition non- derivative financial instruments are measured as described below.
18 BlackWall Limited June 2021
Recognition
A financial instrument is recognised if the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flow from the financial assets expire or if the Group transfers the financial assets to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. Purchases and sales of financial assets are accounted for at trade date, i.e. the date that the Group commits itself to purchase or sell the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised if the Group’s obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.
Financial Assets
All financial assets at FVTPL have been classified as financial assets, with gains and losses recognised in profit or loss. The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: those to be measured subsequently at fair value and those to be measured at amortised cost. The classification depends on the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
(i) Equity Investments
All equity investments are measured at fair value. Equity investments that are held for trading are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
(ii) Loans and Receivables
Loans and receivables including loans to related parties are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit and loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
Fair Value
The fair values of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets are determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the balance date. For investments in related party unlisted unit trusts, fair values are determined by reference to published unit prices of these investments which are based on the net tangible assets of each of the investments.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. A financial instrument 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. In the case of availablefor-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen.
An impairment loss in respect of a financial instrument measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount, and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. An impairment loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset is calculated by reference to its fair value.
Individually significant financial instruments are tested for impairment on an individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.
Impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss. An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. For financial instruments measured at amortised cost, the reversal is recognised in profit and loss.
Financial Liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation.
Investments in Associates
Investments in associate companies are recognised in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting where significant influence is exercised over an investee. Significant influence exists where the investor has the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but does not have control or joint control over those policies.
Under the equity method of accounting, investments in the associates are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associates. The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted investee, the carrying amount of the interest is reduced to nil and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the investee.
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.
Trade and Other Receivables
Trade receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less a provision for any uncollectable debts. An estimate for credit loss impairment is made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the receivable. Financial difficulties of the debtor and default payments are considered objective evidence of impairment. Bad debts are written off when identified as uncollectable.
Trade and Other Payables
Liabilities for trade creditors are carried at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Group at balance date. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
BlackWall Limited June 2021 19
Employee Benefits
Other Long Term Employee Benefits
The Group’s net obligation in respect of long term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods plus related on-costs. These employee benefits have not been discounted to the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.
Short Term Benefits
Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave represent present obligations resulting from employees’ services provided to the reporting date and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group expects to pay as at reporting date including related on-costs.
Revenue
BWF Property Fees include management fees and transaction fees. They are recognised when it becomes legally due and payable to the Group.
Investment Income
Finance income comprises interest on funds invested and gains on the disposal of financial assets. Interest income is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. Dividend and distribution revenue is recognised when the right to receive income has been established.
In-specie distributions and returns of capital are brought on to the balance sheet by an adjustment in the carrying value of the relevant investment and then reflected in the profit and loss as an unrealised gain.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of GST.
Leases
AASB 16 was adopted by the Group on 1 July 2019, applying the modified retrospective approach. Right of use assets and liabilities are recognised for all leases with a lease term of more than 12 months; unless the underlying asset is of a low value. Initial recognition of both the right of use asset and corresponding lease liability is calculated using the present value of remaining lease payments; discounted using the rate implicit in the lease or, if not easily determinable, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. The right of use asset is adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments or onerous lease contracts.
Income Tax
Current Income Tax Expense
The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.
Accounting for Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred Tax Calculation
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.
Deferred Income Tax Assets
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible 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.
Benefit Brought to Account
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
Tax Consolidation
BWF has elected to form a tax consolidated group with its wholly-owned entities for income tax purposes under the tax consolidation regime with effect from 1 January 2011. As a consequence, all members of the tax consolidated group are taxed as a single entity from that date. The head entity within the tax consolidated group is BWF.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, BWF also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group in conjunction with any tax funding arrangement amounts.
The Group recognises deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses of the tax consolidated group to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits of the tax consolidated group will be available against which the asset can be utilised.
Any subsequent period adjustments to deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses as a result of revised assessments of the probability of recoverability is recognised by the head entity only.
20 BlackWall Limited June 2021
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group.
GST
Revenues, expenses and assets 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 the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
Equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Dividends
The final dividend for June period is declared and authorised after the end of the reporting period, therefore provision for dividend is not booked in the current year accounts.
EPS
The Group presents basic and diluted EPS data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year. Any change of presentation has been made in order to make the financial statements more relevant and useful to the user.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations
BWF has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year. Several amendments apply for the first time in the current year. However, they do not impact the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group. Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. Based on our preliminary assessment, we do not expect them to have a material impact on the Group.

Subsequent Events and Significant Changes in Affairs
The impact of the COVID pandemic is ongoing. It is not practical to estimate the potential impact, positive or negative, after the reporting date on the various revenue streams and the performance of the Group. The situation is dependent on measures imposed by the federal and state governments, and other countries, such as maintaining social distancing requirements, quarantine, travel restrictions and any economic stimulus that may be provided.
The Board has declared a final fully franked dividend of 2.6 cents per share to be paid on 15 September 2021.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2021 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the consolidated entity’s operations, the results of those operations, or the consolidated entity’s state of affairs in future financial years.
