Other than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between 30 June 2017 and the date hereof any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, that would affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group, in future financial years.

Likely developments

The Group continues to pursue its strategy of focusing on its core operations, utilising a strengthened balance sheet to provide support to grow and develop these operations.

Further information about likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this report because disclosure of the information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.

The Company has agreed to indemnify all current and former directors and executive officers of the Company and its controlled entities against all liabilities to persons (other than the Company or a related body corporate) which arise out of the performance of their normal duties as a director or executive officer unless the liability relates to conduct involving a lack of good faith.

The Company has agreed to indemnify the directors and executive officers against all costs and expenses incurred in defending an action that falls within the scope of the indemnity and any resulting payments.

The directors have not included details of the nature of the liabilities covered or the amount of premium paid in respect of the Directors' and Officers' liability and legal expenses insurance contracts, as such disclosure is prohibited under the terms of the contracts. The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified or agreed to indemnify an officer or auditor of the Company or any related body corporate against a liability incurred as such an officer or auditor.

Non-audit services

During the financial year, KPMG, the Group’s auditor, has performed services in addition to the audit and review of the financial statements. Details of amounts paid or payable to KPMG are outlined in Note F4 to the financial statements.

The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in the financial statements do not compromise the external auditor's independence, based on advice received from the Audit, Risk Management & Compliance committee, for the following reasons:

  • all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and

Centuria Capital Group 8 30 June 2017

Directors' report

Non-audit services (continued)

A copy of the auditor's independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 20.

Audited remuneration report (continued)

Remuneration policy and link to performance

The Group recognises the important role people play in the achievement of its long-term objectives and as a key source of competitive advantage. To grow and be successful, the Group must be able to attract, motivate and retain capable individuals. The Group's remuneration policy focuses on the following:

  • Ensuring competitive rewards are provided to attract and retain executive talent;

  • Linking remuneration to performance so that higher levels of performance attract higher rewards;

  • • Aligning rewards of all staff, but particularly senior management, to the creation of value to shareholders;

  • Making sure the criteria used to assess and reward staff include financial and non-financial measures of performance;

  • Ensuring the overall cost of remuneration is managed and linked to the ability of the Group to pay; and

  • • Ensuring severance payments due to the Chief Executive Officer on termination are limited to pre-established contractual arrangements which do not commit the Group to making any unjustified payments in the event of non-performance.

The main objective in rewarding the Group's senior management for their performances is to ensure that shareholders' wealth is maximised through the Group's continued growth. It is necessary to structure and strengthen this focus to drive this strategy so that they are aligned with the Group's objectives and successes.

Under the remuneration policy, senior management's remuneration includes a fixed remuneration component, short-term and long-term incentive arrangements. The long-term incentives are based on the Group's performance for the year in reference to specific Earnings per Security (EPS) hurdles and Key Strategic Goals being met. The Group's remuneration is directly related to the performance of the Group through the linking of short and long-term incentives to these financial and non-financial measures.

The short-term incentives are based on the individual's performance in the preceding 12 months compared to pre-agreed goals.

Where senior management is remunerated with shares, the Remuneration Policy places no limitations to their exposure to risk in relation to the shares.

Target incentive remuneration refers to the incentive pay provided for meeting performance requirements. Actual incentive remuneration can vary for senior management depending on the extent to which they meet performance requirements.

In accordance with the Group's corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and senior management remuneration is separate and distinct.

Remuneration of senior management

Objective

The Group aims to reward senior management with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Group so as to:

  • Reward senior management for company, business unit and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks;

  • Align the interests of senior management with those of stakeholders;

  • Link rewards with the strategic goals and performance of the Group; and

  • Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.

Directors' report

Audited remuneration report (continued)

Remuneration of senior management (continued)

Structure

In determining the level and make-up of senior management remuneration, the Chief Executive Officer and Board have regard to market levels of remuneration for comparable executive roles.

Remuneration packages include a mix of fixed and variable remuneration and short and long-term performance-based incentives. The proportion of fixed and variable remuneration is established for senior management by the Chief Executive Officer after consultation with the Nomination & Remuneration Committee. While the allocation may vary from period to period, the table below details the approximate fixed and variable components for senior management.

==> picture [452 x 158] intentionally omitted <==

(a) Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration consists of base remuneration (which is calculated on a total cost basis and includes any FBT charges related to employee benefits including motor vehicles), as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds. This is reviewed annually by the Chief Executive Officer and the Nomination & Remuneration Committee. The process consists of a review of Group, business unit and individual performance as well as relevant comparative remuneration in the market. The same process is used by the Nomination & Remuneration Committee when reviewing the fixed remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer.

Senior management are given the opportunity to receive their fixed remuneration in a variety of forms including cash and salary sacrifice items such as motor vehicles, motor vehicle allowances and/or additional superannuation contributions.

(b) Variable Remuneration

Under the Group’s Senior Management Remuneration Policy, long and short-term performance incentives may be made under the Group’s incentive plans. These are discussed further below.

(i) Short-term Incentives (STI)

The objective of the STI program is to link the achievement of the Group's non-financial and financial targets with the remuneration received by senior management charged with meeting those targets. The total potential STI available is set at a level so as to provide sufficient incentive to senior management to achieve operational targets and such that the cost to the Group is reasonable in the circumstances.

At the Board’s absolute discretion, employees may be provided with the opportunity to receive an annual, performance-based incentive, either in the form of cash or the issue of shares in the Group, or a combination of both.

During the current financial year, the Group issued Nil (2016: Nil) ordinary securities to employees in addition to cash bonuses provided to employees.

(ii) Long-term Incentives (LTI)

The Group has an Executive Incentive Plan (“LTI Plan”) which forms a key element of the Group’s incentive and retention strategy for senior management under which Performance Rights (“Rights”) are issued.

The primary objectives of the Plan include:

  • focusing executives on the longer term performance of the Group to drive long term shareholder value creation;

  • ensure senior management remuneration outcomes are aligned with shareholder interests, in particular, the strategic goals and performance of the Group; and

  • ensure remuneration is competitive and aligned with general market practice by ASX listed entities.

Rights issued under the LTI Plan are issued in accordance with the thresholds approved at the 2016 Annual General Meeting (AGM).

A summary of the key terms of the Performance Rights are set out below.

Term Detail
Each Right is a right to receive a fully paid ordinary stapled security in the Group
Performance ("Security"), subject to meeting the Performance Conditions.
Rights ("Rights") Upon meeting the Performance Conditions, the Rights vest and securities are allocated.
Rights do not carry a right to vote or to dividends or, in general, a right to participate in other
corporate actions such as bonus issues.
The Rights will vest to the extent that the board determines that:
Vesting conditions - The performance conditions that apply to the Rights were satisfied; and
- The employee was continuously employed by the Company until the end of the
Performance Period.
The date on which the Board determines the extent to which the performance conditions are
Vesting date satisfied and the Rights vest.
The Performance Conditions set out in the LTI Plan relate to:
Performance - Growth in Earnings Per Share ("EPS hurdle");
Conditions - Growth in property and friendly society funds under management ("FUM Hurdle"); and
- Absolute Total Securityholder Return Performance("Absolute TSR Hurdle").

The Group currently operates three tranches of the Executive Incentive Plan (“Plan”) as below.

Centuria Capital Group 26 30 June 2017

A About the report

A1 General information

At an Extraordinary General Meeting on 10 October 2016, the shareholders of Centuria Capital Limited ABN 22 095 454 336 (the ‘Company’), incorporated and listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’) trading under the ticker code ‘CNI’, approved the proposal to establish the Centuria Capital Group (the ‘Group’) by amending the Company’s Constitution to allow the stapling of units in the trust, Centuria Capital Fund (‘CCF’) ARSN 613 856 358, to their shares.

Under the stapling, the Company’s existing business was split into two parts. The Company continues to be the operating entity, carrying on its property funds management, active asset management and investment bond management business, with the Company’s property investments transferred to CCF.

The shares in the Company and the units in CCF are stapled to trade together as a single stapled security (‘Stapled Security’) on the ASX as ‘Centuria Capital Group’ under an unchanged ASX ticker code. The Stapled Securities commenced trading on the day after the stapling which occurred on 17 October 2016.

The Group is a for-profit entity and its principal activities are the marketing and management of investment products, including property investment funds and friendly society investment bonds, and co-investment in property investment funds.

Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001 . The consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The consolidated financial statements of the Group comprising the Company (as ‘Parent’) and its controlled entities for the year ended 30 June 2017 were authorised for issue by the Group’s Board of Directors on 23 August 2017.

Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for derivative financial instruments, financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and other financial assets, which have been measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, which is the company’s functional currency, unless otherwise noted.

Assets and liabilities have been presented on the face of the statement of financial position in decreasing order of liquidity and do not distinguish between current and non-current items.

Rounding of amounts

The Group is an entity of a kind referred to in ASIC Legislative Instrument 2016/191, related to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the Directors’ Report and financial statements. Amounts in the Directors’ Report and financial statements have been rounded off, in accordance with the instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Centuria Capital Group 27 30 June 2017

About the report

A2 Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies and methods of computation in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are consistent with those adopted in the previous financial year ended 30 June 2016 unless specifically outlined below or in the relevant notes to the consolidated financial statements.

When the presentation or classification of items in the consolidated financial statements has been amended, comparative amounts are also reclassified, unless it is impractical.

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner that ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events are reported.

These financial statements contain all significant accounting policies that summarise the recognition and measurement basis used and which are relevant to provide an understanding of the financial statements. Accounting policies that are specific to a note to the financial statements are described in the note to which they relate. Other accounting policies are set out below.

Consolidation of Benefit Funds

A subsidiary of the Company, Centuria Life Limited (‘CLL’), is a friendly society in accordance with the Life Insurance Act 1995 (the ‘Act’). The funds operated by CLL, and any trusts controlled by those Funds, are treated as statutory funds in accordance with the Act. These statutory funds are required to be consolidated in accordance with accounting standards.

For the year ended 30 June 2017 and going forward, the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of these statutory funds have been included on a line by line basis on the primary financial statements and disclosure notes. Where relevant, comparative primary financial statements and disclosures have been restated to ensure consistency in presentation of financial information across the applicable comparative periods. This change has been made as it provides more relevant and comparable information.

The table below shows how the comparative balances of these statutory funds have been reclassified:

A3 Use of judgements and estimates

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense that are not readily apparent from other sources. The judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:

  • Note C4 Investment properties

  • Note C5 Intangible assets

  • Note F3 Financial instruments

Recognition and measurement

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured.

(i) Management fees

Management fees are recognised on an accruals basis when the Group has the right to receive payment.

(ii) Property transaction fees, sale fees and performance fees

Property transaction fees such as acquisition fees are recognised when an investment property has been acquired in a fund managed by the Group.

Sales and performance fees derived from managed funds are recognised upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the sale of an investment property.

(iii) Sale of development properties

Revenue from the sale of apartments is recognised at the fair value of the consideration receivable when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the purchaser and where there is no continuing management involvement, which normally coincides with settlement of the contract for sale.

(iv) Interest revenue

Interest revenue is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding using the effective interest rate method.

(v) Rent and recoverable outgoings

Rental income from investment property is recognised in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

Recoverable outgoings are recognised on an accrual basis.

(vi) Distribution/dividend revenue

Distribution/dividend revenue from investments is recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably).

(d) Capital tax losses

At 30 June 2017, the Group has approximately $373,750 of tax effected unrecognised capital tax losses.

Recognition and measurement

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

(i) Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the consolidated profit or loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

(ii) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and tax offsets, to the extent that it is probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available to utilise them.

Centuria Capital Group 37 30 June 2017

Business performance

B5 Taxation (continued)

Recognition and measurement (continued)

(ii) Deferred tax (continued)

However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised for:

  • taxable temporary differences that arise from the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit;

  • taxable temporary differences relating to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and

  • taxable temporary differences arising from goodwill

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

(iii) Tax consolidation

The Company and all its wholly-owned Australian resident companies are part of a tax-consolidated group under Australian taxation law. The Company is the head entity in the tax-consolidated group. Tax expense/benefit, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the members of the tax-consolidated group are recognised in their separate financial statements using a 'standalone tax payer' approach. Under the tax funding arrangement between members of the tax-consolidated group, amounts are recognised as payable to or receivable by each member in relation to the tax contribution amounts paid or payable between Company and the members of the the tax-consolidated group.

Centuria Capital Fund (CCF) and its subsidiaries are not part of the tax-consolidation group. Under current Australian income tax legislation, Trusts are not liable for income tax, provided their securityholders are presently entitled to the taxable income of the Trust including realised capital gains each financial year.

The Benefit Funds are part of the tax consolidated group, and they are allocated a share of the income tax liability attributable to Centuria Life Limited equal to the income tax liability that would have arisen to the Benefit Funds had they been stand-alone.

(iv) Current and deferred tax for the period

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised directly in equity and not in the statement of comprehensive income. In the case of a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

Recognition and measurement

All financial assets are recognised and derecognised on trade date where the purchase or sale of a financial asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the financial asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value.

Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the statement of comprehensive income.

Reverse mortgage loan receivable financial assets are recorded at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment.

Recognition and measurement

Investment properties are properties held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both. Investment properties are initially recorded at cost which includes stamp duty and other transaction costs. Subsequently, the investment properties are measured at fair value with any change in value recognised in profit or loss. The carrying amount of investment properties includes components relating to deferred rent, lease incentives and leasing fees.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

Key estimate and judgements

(a) Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs

The fair value of the investment properties were determined by the Directors of the Responsible Entity of the relevant funds or by an external, independent valuer having an appropriate recognised professional qualification and recent experience in the location and category of the properties being valued. Fair value is based on market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

The valuations were prepared by considering the following valuation methodologies:

  • Capitalisation approach: the annual net rental income is capitalised at an appropriate market yield to arrive at the property's market value. Appropriate capital adjustments are then made where necessary to reflect the specific cash flow profile and the general characteristics of the property.

  • Discounted cash flow approach: this approach incorporates the estimation of future annual cash flows over a 10 year period by reference to expected rental growth rates, ongoing capital expenditure, terminal sale value and acquisition and disposal costs. The present value of future cash flows is then determined by the application of an appropriate discount rate to derive a net present value for the property.

  • Direct comparison approach: this approach identifies comparable sales on a dollar per square metre of lettable area basis and compares the equivalent rates to the property being valued to determine the property's market value.

The valuations reflect, when appropriate, the type of tenants actually in occupation or responsible for meeting lease commitments or likely to be in occupation after letting of vacant accommodation and the market’s general perception of their credit-worthiness; the allocation of maintenance and insurance responsibilities between the lessor and lessee; and the remaining economic life of the property. It has been assumed that whenever rent reviews or lease renewals are pending with anticipated reversionary increases, all notices and, where appropriate, counter notices have been served validly and within the appropriate time.

The most significant unobservable input used in the above valuation techniques and its relationship with fair value measurement is the capitalisation rate. The higher/lower the rate, the lower/higher the fair value.

(b) Fair value measurement

The fair value measurement of investment properties has been categorised as a Level 3 fair value as it is derived from valuation techniques that include inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Goodwill and management rights are solely attributable to the Property Funds Management cash generating unit with recoverability determined by a value in use calculation using profit and loss projections covering a five year period, with a terminal value determined after five years.

Recognition and measurement

(i) Indefinite life management rights

Management rights acquired in a business combination are initially measured at fair value and reflect the right to provide asset and fund management services in accordance with the management agreements.

(ii) Goodwill

Goodwill acquired in a business combination is measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any impairment losses. The cost represents the excess of the cost of a business combination over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired.

(iii) Impairment

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash generating units or CGUs). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that were previously impaired are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

Key estimates and judgements

The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations for the Property Funds Management cash-generating unit are as follows:

Revenue

Revenues in 2018 are based on the Board approved budget for 2018 and are assumed to increase at a rate of 7.5% (2016: 7.5%) per annum for years 2019-2021. The directors believe this is a prudent and achievable growth rate based on past experience.

Expenses

Expenses in 2018 are based on the budget for 2018 and are assumed to increase at a rate of 5.0% (2016: 5.0%) per annum for the years 2019-2021. The directors believe this is an appropriate growth rate based on past experience.

Centuria Capital Group 46 30 June 2017

Assets and liabilities

C5 Intangible assets (continued)

Discount rate

Discount rates are determined to calculate the present value of future cash flows. A pre-tax rate of 10.59% (2016: 10.68%) is applied to cash flow projections. In determining the appropriate discount rate, regard has been given to relevant market data as well as Company specific inputs.

Terminal growth rate

Beyond 2021, a growth rate of 3% (2016: 3%), in line with long term economic growth, has been applied to determine the terminal value of the asset.

Sensitivity to changes in assumptions

As at 30 June 2017, the estimated recoverable amount of goodwill relating to the Property Funds Management cash-generating unit exceeded its carrying amount by $76.8 million (2016: $49.7 million). The table below shows the key assumptions used in the value in use calculation and the amount by which each key assumption must change in isolation in order for the estimated recoverable amount to be equal to its carrying value:

Revenue
growth rate Pre-tax Expenses
(average) discount rate growth rate

Recognition and measurement

Payables are recognised when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. Due to the short-term nature of these financial obligations, their carrying amounts are estimated to represent their fair values.

C8 Commitments and contingencies (continued)

(b) Contingencies

The Group has bank guarantees of $8,032,204, comprising $7,500,000 held to comply with the terms of the Australian Financial Services Licences (AFSL) and $532,304 for commercial leases with respect to its Sydney and Melbourne office premises.

The above guarantees are issued in respect of the Group and do not constitute an additional liability to those already existing in interest bearing liabilities on the statement of financial position.

The Directors of the Company are not aware of any other contingent liabilities in relation to the Group, other than those disclosed in the financial statements, which should be brought to the attention of securityholders as at the date of completion of this report.

Recognition and measurement

When the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Group, the lease is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

(i) Group as a leasee

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed.

(ii) Group as a lessor

Lease income from operating leases where the Group is a lessor is recognised in income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

E1 Business combination

(a) Stapling

The stapling of the Company and Centuria Captial Fund (CCF) was approved at an Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders of the Company on 10 October 2016. Following approval of the stapling, shares in the Company and units in CCF were stapled to one another on 17 October 2016 and are traded as a single security on the ASX.

CCF was established by the transfer of the Company’s interest in Centuria Metropolitan REIT (‘CMA’) and other Co-investments to CCF in exchange for $52,535,795 in equity of CCF. Assets transferred to CCF were transferred at fair value. As the co-investments were already held at fair value, there was no impact on the consolidated net assets. CCL distributed $52,535,795 of its units in CCF to its shareholders through a $13,331,181 dividend and a capital distribution of $39,204,614.

In relation to the stapling of the Company and CCF, the Company is identified as the parent of the Group with the acquisition accounted for as a change in ownership without a loss of control. The issued units of CCF are not owned by the Company and are presented as non-controlling interests in the Group even though units in CCF are held directly by the shareholders of the Company.

The equity in the net assets of CCF and the profit/(loss) arising from those net assets have been separately identified in the statements of comprehensive income and financial position. CCF’s contributed equity and retained earnings/accumulated losses are shown as a non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting standards.

(b) 360 Capital acquisition

On 23 November 2016, the Group announced the purchase of all of the shares in Centuria Property Funds No. 2 Limited (formerly 360 Capital Investment Management Limited) (‘CPF2L’) and associated management rights over listed and unlisted property investment funds for which CPF2L is the responsible entity from 360 Capital Group Limited (‘360 Capital’). Also as part of the acquisition, the Group agreed to acquire various stakes in those listed and unlisted funds.

The acquisition of shares in CPF2L and the interests in the listed and unlisted property investment funds (collectively, the ‘Transaction’) was settled on 9 January 2017.

This acquisition was funded by a combination of debt, equity and existing cash reserves, including $150,000,000 capital raised from new and existing institutional investors, and a vendor loan amounting to $50,000,000.

The acquisition also included a call option and a put option over stakes in the four unlisted property investment funds managed by CPF2L with a maximum option period of 2 years following completion of the acquisition.

This acquisition is part of the Group’s strategy in growing its property funds management platform and increasing recurring revenues through additional co-investment in managed funds.

(i) Transaction related costs

Transaction related costs of $9,591,064 were incurred of which $2,707,750 are included in expenses in profit or loss and $6,883,314 are recognised directly in contributed equity.

(ii) Contingent consideration

The contingent consideration arrangement requires the Group to guarantee the distribution yield on co-investment stakes in unlisted property funds subject to put and call options to 7.5%. The contingent consideration liability recognised reflects the Group's expectation of the fair value of the amounts to be paid over the contingent period. The distributions are expected to be less than the guaranteed return.

Recognition and measurement

Acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Group. The consideration for each acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values (at the date of acquisition) of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

During the year, as part of the 360 Capital Transaction, the Group gained control over four unlisted property funds including Centuria 111 St Georges Terrace Fund, Centuria Retail Fund, Centuria Havelock House Fund and Centuria 441 Muarry Street Fund. These funds have been consolidated in these financial statements.

Recognition and measurement

(i) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company. The Group controls an entity when it 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 over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

The Company is required by AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements to recognise the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and equity of the benefit funds of its subsidiary, Centuria Life Limited (the “Benefit Funds”). The assets and liabilities of the Benefit Funds do not impact the net profit after tax or the equity attributable to the shareholders of the Company and the shareholders of the Company have no rights over the assets and liabilities held in the Benefit Funds. The Company has majority representation on the Board of the Over Fifty Guardian Friendly Society Limited (Guardian). However, as Guardian is a mutual organisation, the Company has no legal rights to Guardian's net assets, nor does it derive any benefit from exercising its power and therefore does not control Guardian.

F1 Share-based payment arrangements

(a) LTI Plan details

The Company has an Executive Incentive Plan (“LTI Plan”) which forms a key element of the Company’s incentive and retention strategy for senior executives under which Performance Rights (“Rights”) are issued.

Each employee receives ordinary security of the Group on vesting of the performance rights. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the performance rights or on vesting. The performance rights carry neither rights to dividends nor voting rights prior to vesting.

It is expected that future annual grants of performance rights will be made, subject to the Board’s determination of the overall performance of the Group and market conditions. The vesting of any performance rights awarded will be subject to attainment of appropriate performance hurdles and on the basis of continuing employment with the Group.

Further details of the LTI Plan are included in the Audited remuneration report from page 12 to page 14.

(b) Measurement of fair values

The fair value of the rights was calculated using a binomial tree valuation methodology for the Rights with non-market vesting conditions and a Monte-Carlo simulation for the Rights with market vesting conditions.

The inputs used in the measurement of the fair values at grant date of the rights were as follows:

. Tranche 2 . Tranche 3 . Tranche 4
Expected vesting date . 31 August 2017 . 31 August 2018 . 31 August 2019
Share price at the grant date . $0.91 . $0.96 . $1.02
Expected life . 2.6 years . 2.6 years . 2.7 years
Volatility . 25% . 20% . 20%
Risk free interest rate . 1.94% . 1.85% . 1.94%
Dividendyield . 4.3% . 5.4% . 5.7%
The following table sets out the fair value of the rights at the respective grant date:
Performance Condition . Tranche 2 . Tranche 3 . Tranche 4
EPS . $0.81 . $0.87 . $0.88
Growth in FUM . $0.81 . $0.87 . $0.88
Absolute TSR . $0.28 . $0.19 . $0.16

During the year, share based payment expenses were recognised of $448,247 (2016: $675,000).

Recognition and measurement

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates with respect to non-market vesting conditions, if any, is recognised in profit for the year such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity-settled employee benefits reserve.

F2 Guarantees to Benefit Fund policyholders

Centuria Life Limited (CLL) provides a guarantee to policyholders of two of its Benefit Funds, Centuria Capital Guaranteed Bond Fund and Centuria Income Accumulation Fund as follows:

If, when CLL, in light of the Bonds, is required under the bond rules to pay policy benefits to a policy owner as a consequence of the termination of the Bond or the maturity or surrender of a policy, and CLL determines that the sums to be paid to the policy owner from the bonds shall be less than the amounts standing to the credit of the relevant accumulation account balance, (or in the case of a partial surrender, the relevant proportion of the accumulation account balance), CLL guarantees to take all action within its control, including making payment from its management fund to the policy owner to ensure that the total sums received by the policy owner as a consequence of the termination, maturity or surrender equal the relevant accumulation account balance, (or) in the case of a partial surrender, the relevant proportion thereof.

No provision has been raised in respect of these guarantees at this time for the following reasons:

  • The funds follow an investment strategy that is appropriate for the liabilities of the fund. The Fund cannot alter their investment strategy without the approval of the members and APRA, following a report from the appointed actuary;

  • The funds must meet the capital adequacy standards of APRA which results in additional reserves being held within the funds to enable the funds to withstand a "shock" in the market value of assets. If the Funds can withstand a shock in asset values and still meet their liabilities from their own reserves, then this further reduces the likelihood of the Funds calling on the guarantee provided; and

  • CLL also continues to meet the ongoing capital requirements set by APRA.

F3 Financial instruments

(a) Management of financial instruments

The Board is ultimately responsible for the Risk Management Framework of the Group.

The Group employs a cascading approach to managing risk, facilitated through delegation to specialist committees and individuals within the Group.

The Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks as a result of its activities. These risks include market risk (including interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's risk management and investment policies, approved by the Board, seek to minimise the potential adverse effects of these risks on the Group's financial performance. These policies may include the use of certain financial derivative instruments.

Centuria Life Limited (CLL) has also established an Investment Committee. The Investment Committee’s function is to manage and oversee the Benefit Fund investments in accordance with the investment objectives and framework. Specifically, it has responsibility for setting and reviewing strategic asset allocations, reviewing investment performance, reviewing investment policy, monitoring and reporting on the performance of the investment risk management policy and performing risk management procedures in respect of the investments.

From time to time, the Group outsources certain parts of the investment management of the Benefit Funds to specialist investment managers including co-ordinating access to domestic and international financial markets, and managing the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group in accordance with an investment mandate set out in the Group's constitution and the Benefit Funds' product disclosure statements. The Benefit Funds' investment mandates are to invest in equities and fixed interest securities via unit trusts, discount securities and may also invest in derivative instruments such as futures and options.

The Group uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk and not for speculative purposes in any situation. Hedging is put in place where the Group is either seeking to minimise or eliminate cash-flow variability, i.e., converting variable rates to fixed rates, or changes in the fair values of underlying assets or liabilities, i.e., to convert fixed rates to variable rates.

Derivative financial instruments of the Benefit Funds, consolidated into the financial statements of the Group under AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, are used only for hedging factual or anticipated exposures relating to investments. The use of financial derivatives in respect of Benefit Funds is governed by the Funds' investment policies, which provide written principles on the use of financial derivatives.

Centuria Capital Group 58 30 June 2017

Other

F3 Financial instruments (continued)

(b) Capital risk management

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of debt and equity capital. This overall strategy remains unchanged from the prior year.

The Group's capital structure consists of net debt (borrowings, offset by cash and cash equivalents) and equity of the Group (comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings).

The Group carries on business throughout Australia, primarily through subsidiary companies that are established in the markets in which the Group operates. The operations of Centuria Life Limited are regulated by APRA and the management fund of the Society has a minimum Prescribed Capital Amount (PCA) that must be maintained at all times. It is calculated monthly and these results are reported to the Board each month. The current level of share capital of Centuria Life Limited meets the PCA requirements.

In addition, Centuria Property Funds Limited, Centuria Funds Management Limited, Centuria Property Fund No.2 Limited and Centuria Strategic Property Limited have AFS licences so as to operate registered property trusts. Regulations require these entities to hold a minimum net asset amount which is maintained by way of bank guarantees. Where necessary, the bank guarantees will be increased to ensure the net asset requirement is always met.

Operating cash flows are used to maintain and, where appropriate, expand the Group's funds under management as well as to make the routine outflows of tax, dividends and repayment of maturing debt. The Group reviews regularly its anticipated funding requirements and the most appropriate form of funding (capital raising or borrowings) depending on what the funding will be used for.

The capital structure of the Benefit Funds (and management fund) consists of cash and cash equivalents, bill facilities and mortgage assets. The Benefit Funds also hold a range of financial assets for investment purposes including investments in unit trusts, equity and floating rate notes. The Investment Committee aims to ensure that there is sufficient capital for possible redemptions by unit holders of the Benefit Funds by regularly monitoring the level of liquidity in each fund.

The Benefit Funds have no restrictions or specific capital requirements on the application and redemption of units. The Benefit Funds' overall investment strategy remains unchanged from the prior year.

(c) Fair value of financial instruments

(i) Valuation techniques and assumptions applied in determining fair value

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded on active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices (includes listed redeemable notes, bills of exchange, debentures and perpetual notes).

The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices from observable current market transactions and dealer quotes for similar instruments. Discount rates are determined based on market rates applicable to the financial asset or liability.

The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of the Group's reverse mortgage loan book is as follows:

  • the weighted average reverse mortgage holders’ age is 79 years;

  • the future cash flows calculation is related to borrowers' mortality rates and mortality improvements. The data is sourced from mortality tables provided by the actuary;

  • fixed or variable interest rates charged to borrowers are used to project future cash flows;

  • a redemption rate, which is based on historical loan redemption experience, applies to future cash flow forecast; and

  • year-end yield curve is used to discount future cash flows back to 30 June 2017 to determine the fair value.

Centuria Capital Group 59 30 June 2017

Other

F3 Financial instruments (continued)

(c) Fair value of financial instruments (continued)

(ii) Valuation techniques and assumptions applied in determining fair value of derivatives

The fair values of derivative instruments are calculated using quoted prices. Where such prices are not available, discounted cash flow analysis is performed using the applicable yield curve for the duration of the instruments for non-optional derivatives, and option pricing models for optional derivatives.

The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of the Fixed for Life interest rate swaps is as follows:

  • the weighted average reverse mortgage holders’ age is 79 years;

  • the expected future cash flows in relation to the swaps are based on reverse mortgage borrowers' expected life expectancy sourced from mortality tables provided by the actuary; and the difference between the fixed swap pay rates and forward rates as of 30 June 2017 is used to calculate the future cash flows in relation to the swaps; and year-end yield curve plus a credit margin is used to discount future cash flows back to 30 June 2017 to determine the fair value.

(iii) Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy for financial instruments measured at fair value.

The table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.

  • Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

  • Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 and 3 in the period.

The Group determines Level 2 fair values for financial assets and liabilities without an active market based on broker quotes. Level 2 fair values for simple over-the-counter derivatives are also based on broker quotes. Those quotes are tested for reasonableness by discounting expected future cash flows using market interest rates for a similar instrument at the measurement date. Fair values reflect the credit risk of the instrument and include adjustments to take account of the credit risk of the entity and counterparty where appropriate.

The Level 3 financial asset held by the Group is the fair value of the residential mortgage receivables attributable to interest rate risk. The Level 3 financial liability held by the Group is the fixed-for-life interest rate swaps. These items are designated in a fair value hedging relationship, with the fair value movements on the swaps offset by the fair value movements in the mortgage receivables. However, as the Group has only designated the fair value movements attributable to interest rate risk in the hedging relationship, any other fair value movements impact the profit and loss directly, such as credit risk movements.

Key estimates and judgements

The fair value of the 50 year residential mortgage loans and 50 year swaps are calculated using a valuation technique based on assumptions that are not supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument and not based on available observable market data due to the illiquid nature of the instruments. Use is made of discounted cash flow analysis using the applicable yield curve out to 20 years, with the yield curve at 20 years employed as the best proxy for subsequent rates due to non-observable market data.

Mortality rates for males and females have been based on the ABS 2013-2015 mortality table with adjustments for the demographic profile of the mortgage holders. Mortality improvements are assumed starting at 3% p.a. at age 70 and tapering down to 1% p.a. from age 90. Joint life mortality is based on last death for loans with joint borrowers.

Recognition and measurement

The Group enters into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate risk.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event, the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. The hedge is considered ineffective if it falls outside the range of 80% to 125%.

(d) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating risk of financial loss from default. The credit risk on financial assets of the Group and the parent recognised in the statement of financial position is generally the carrying amount, net of allowance for impairment loss.

Concentration of risk may exist when the volume of transactions limits the number of counterparties.

(i) Credit risk of reverse mortgages

Concentration of credit risk in relation to reverse mortgage loans is minimal, as each individual reverse mortgage loan is secured by an individual residential property. The loan is required to be paid off from the proceeds of disposal of the secured property after the borrower's death.

Individual property valuations are conducted at least every 3 years in accordance with financier's requirements. At 30 June 2017, the highest loan to value ratio (LVR) of a loan in the reverse mortgage loan book is 113% (2016: 82%), and there are 52 out of 232 (2016: 41 out of 247) reverse mortgage loans where the LVR is higher than 50%.

(ii) Credit risk on other financial assets

Credit risk on other financial assets such as investments in floating rate notes, standard discount securities and unit trusts is managed through strategic asset allocations with creditworthy counterparties and the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of investments, including the use of credit ratings issued by well-known rating agencies. The exposure of credit risk in respect of financial assets is minimal.

The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single entity in other financial assets or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics.

(e) Liquidity risk

The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities.

The liquidity risk is managed for the Group at a corporate level. Bank account balances across all entities, current and future commitments, and expected cash inflows are reviewed in detail when the monthly cash flow projection is prepared for management purposes and presented to the Board at its regular monthly meetings. By comparing the projected cash flows with the assets and liabilities shown in the individual and consolidated statements of financial position, which are also prepared on a monthly basis for management purposes and presented to the Board, liquidity requirements for the Group can be determined. Based on this review, if it is considered that the expected cash inflows plus liquidity on hand, may not be sufficient in the near term to meet cash outflow requirements, including repayment of borrowings, a decision can be made to carry out one or more of the following:

  • renegotiate the repayment terms of the borrowings;

  • sell assets that are held on the statement of financial position; and/or

  • undertake an equity raising.

This, combined with a profitable business going forward, should ensure that the Group continues to meet its commitments, including repayments of borrowings, as and when required.

The Group's overall strategy to liquidity risk management remains unchanged from the prior year.

The following table summarises the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group and the parent can be required to pay. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are at floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curves at the end of the reporting period.

The policy holders in the Benefit Funds are able to redeem their policies at any time and the Benefit Funds are therefore exposed to the liquidity risk of meeting policyholders' withdrawals at any time. The Investment Committee aims to ensure that there is sufficient capital for possible redemptions by policyholders of the Benefit Funds by regularly monitoring the level of liquidity in each fund.

(f) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises interest rate risk and price risk. Due to the nature of assets held by the Group (excluding the Benefit Funds), there is an asset and liability management process which determines the interest rate sensitivity of the statement of financial position and the implementation of risk management practices to hedge the potential effects of interest rate changes. The Group manages the market risk associated with its Benefit Funds by outsourcing its investment management. The Investment Manager manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Benefit Funds in accordance with an investment mandate set out in the Benefit Funds’ constitution and product disclosure statement. There has been no change to the Group's exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risk.

(ii) Interest rate swap contracts

Under interest rate swap contracts, the Group agrees to exchange the difference between fixed and floating rate interest amounts calculated on agreed notional principal amounts. Such contracts enable the Group to mitigate the risk of changing interest rates on the fair value of fixed rate financial assets held and the cash flow exposures on the issued variable rate debt.

The following table details the notional principal amounts and remaining expiry of the Group's outstanding interest rate swap contracts as at reporting date. These swaps are at fair value through profit and loss.

(iii) Interest rate sensitivity

The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the parent and the Group's exposure to interest rates at the balance date and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period, in the case of financial assets and financial liabilities that have variable interest rates. A 100 basis point (1%) increase or decrease represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rate.

At reporting date, if variable interest rates had been 100 (2016: 100) basis points higher or lower and all other variables were held constant, the impact to the Group would have been as follows:

The methods and assumptions used to prepare the sensitivity analysis have not changed in the year.

F5 New Accounting Standards and Interpretations

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2017 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.

(a) AASB 9 Financial Instruments

(i) Nature of change

AASB 9 addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, introduces new rules for hedge accounting and a new impairment model for financial assets.

(ii) Impact

While the Group has yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the classification and measurement of financial assets, the likely impact on the Group's financial assets is as follows:

  • equity investments currently measured at fair value through profit or loss which would likely continue to be measured on the same basis under AASB 9

  • debt instruments (with the exception of reverse mortgage receivables) currently classified as held-to-maturity and measured at amortised cost which appear to meet the conditions for classification at amortised cost under AASB 9.

Accordingly, the Group does not expect the new guidance to have a significant impact on the classification and measurement of its financial assets, however the analysis for whether the reverse mortgage receivables is yet to be performed and therefore the classification of these receivables could be impacted.

There will be no impact on the Group’s accounting for financial liabilities, as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and the group does not have any such liabilities. The derecognition rules have been transferred from AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and have not been changed.

The new hedge accounting rules generally allow for more hedge relationships to be eligible for hedge accounting, as the standard introduces a more principles-based approach. The Group does not expect a significant impact as a result of the hedging changes.

The new impairment model requires the recognition of impairment provisions based on expected credit losses rather than only incurred credit losses as is the case under AASB 139. It applies to financial assets classified at amortised cost, debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, contract assets under AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers , lease receivables, loan commitments and certain financial guarantee contracts. While the Group has not yet undertaken a detailed assessment of how its impairment provisions would be affected by the new model, it may result in an earlier recognition of credit losses.

The new standard also introduces expanded disclosure requirements and changes in presentation. These are expected to change the nature and extent of the Group’s disclosures about its financial instruments particularly in the year of the adoption of the new standard.

Centuria Capital Group 67 30 June 2017

Other

F5 New Accounting Standards and Interpretations (continued)

(a) AASB 9 Financial Instruments (continued)

(iii) Mandatory application date

Must be applied for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2018, but available for early adoption. therefore mandatory application to the Group would be year ending 30 June 2019.

The Group does not intend to adopt AASB 9 before its mandatory date.

(b) AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

(i) Nature of change

The AASB has issued a new standard for the recognition of revenue. This will replace AASB 118 which covers revenue arising from the sale of goods and the rendering of services and AASB 111 which covers construction contracts.

The new standard is based on the principle that revenue is recognised when control of a good or service transfers to a customer.

The standard permits either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption.

(ii) Impact

Management is currently assessing the effects of applying the new standard on the Group's financial statements and has identified the following areas that are likely to be affected:

  • Performance fees are currently recognised upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the sale of an investment property and when significant risks and rewards have transferred. Under the new standard, the Group will need to consider whether a minimum amount of consideration should be recognised at an earlier point in time. This will include an assessment of the facts and circumstances as to whether it is highly probable that the amount of the performance fees would not result in a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognised when the uncertainty is resolved.

Other than performance fees, the Group has not yet made an assessment of all other fees and management contracts but timing and classification of fees could be impacted.

At this stage, the Group is not able to estimate the effect of the new rules on the Group’s financial statements. The Group will continue to assess the effects of the new standard in more detail over the next twelve months.

(iii) Mandatory application date

Mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2018, but available for early adoption. Therefore mandatory application to the Group would be year ending 30 June 2019.

The Group does not intend to adopt AASB 15 before its mandatory date.

(c) AASB 16 Leases

(i) Nature of change

AASB 16 was issued in February 2016. It will result in almost all leases being recognised on the balance sheet, as the distinction between operating and finance leases is removed. Under the new standard, an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals are recognised. The only exceptions are short-term and low-value leases.

The accounting for lessors will not significantly change.

(ii) Impact

The standard will affect primarily the accounting for the Group’s operating leases. As at the reporting date, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments as outlined in note C8(a). However, the Group’ has not yet determined to what extent these commitments will result in the recognition of an asset and a liability for future payments and how this will affect the Group’s profit and classification of cash flows.

Some of the commitments may be covered by the exception for short-term and low-value leases and some commitments may relate to arrangements that will not qualify as leases under AASB 16.

(c) AASB 16 Leases (continued)

(iii) Mandatory application date

Mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2019, but available for early adoption. Therefore mandatory application to the Group would be year ending 30 June 2020.

At this stage, the Group has not concluded whether it intends to adopt AASB 16 before its mandatory date.

There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

F6 Events subsequent to the reporting date

(i) Units purchased in Centuria Metropolitan REIT

On 27 July 2017, the Group acquired 4,127,265 units in Centuria Metropolitan REIT for $2.35 per unit.

(ii) Settlement of Centuria Sandgate Road Fund

The Group acquired 37,932,023 of acquisition units in Centuria Sandgate Road Fund on 7 July 2017 for $1 per unit upon settlement of the property in the fund. As at 14 August 2017, the Group had sold down 18,950,249 of these acquisition units.

Other than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between 30 June 2017 and the date hereof any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, to affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group, in future financial years.

Key Audit Matters

The Key Audit Matters we identified for the Stapled Group are:

  • Acquisition accounting of 360 Capital transaction

  • Impairment of Goodwill and Indefinite Life Intangible Assets

Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Financial Report of the current period.

These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

  • Valuation of Property Assets

  • Hedge Accounting and Valuation of Derivatives

Acquisition accounting of 360 Capital transaction

Refer to Note E1 to the Financial Report

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

During the year, the Stapled Group acquired all of the shares in Centuria Property Funds No. 2 Limited (formerly 360 Capital Investment Management Limited) (‘CPF2L’) and the associated management rights for listed and unlisted property investment funds for which CPF2L is the responsible entity, from 360 Capital Group Limited. Additionally, as part of the acquisition, the Stapled Group agreed to acquire various stakes in those listed and unlisted funds.

The acquisition accounting was identified as a key audit matter given the significance to the audit and the judgment required to assess:

  • [The fair value of acquired assets and liabilities ] including the value of identifiable intangible assets such as management rights;

  • [The recognition of goodwill arising from the ] acquisition;

  • [The accounting treatment and consolidation of ] the listed and unlisted funds purchased;

  • [The accounting treatment and valuation of put ] and call options over the unlisted funds;

Our procedures included:

  • Reading the sales and purchase agreements and transaction documents to gain an understanding of the acquisition;

  • Assessing the accounting treatments for the acquisition, including the calculation of goodwill, for adherence with the Australian Accounting Standards;

  • Assessing the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities. In particular, we focused on the management rights and investment properties acquired. Our work on these matters is further set out in the Impairment of Goodwill and Identifiable Life Intangible Assets and Valuation of Property Assets key audit matters;

  • Evaluating the Stapled Group’s rationale for the accounting treatment of the purchased listed funds as investments and the unlisted funds as consolidated funds by comparing the features of their acquisition and ownership, from the purchase and sale agreement, against the criteria in the Australian Accounting Standards;

72

==> picture [63 x 46] intentionally omitted <==

  • [The valuation of contingent consideration ] relating to the purchase of the unlisted funds. We assessed the terms of the contingent consideration arrangement regarding the Stapled Group’s guarantee of the distribution yield on co-investment stakes in the unlisted funds subject to put and call options.; and

  • [The effective date of the transaction based on ] the evidence of satisfaction of all substantive conditions.

  • Evaluating the Stapled Group’s recognition of the put and call options as liabilities in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards;

  • Assessing the Stapled Group’s estimate of contingent consideration by comparing the key assumptions in the discounted cash flow to historical returns and the guaranteed distribution yields in the agreement;

  • Assessing the Stapled Group’s determination of the date the substantive conditions were met by considering each significant condition of the transaction and the date on which this occurred; and

  • [Assessing the appropriateness of the relevant ] disclosures in the Financial Report for compliance with Australian Accounting Standards.

Refer to Note C5 to the Financial Report

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

At 30 June 2017, the Stapled Group’s intangible assets comprise goodwill and management rights. A key audit matter for us was the Stapled Group’s annual testing of goodwill and management rights for impairment. We focused on the significant forward-looking assumptions the Stapled Group applied in their value in use model including:

  • [Forecast operating cash flows, growth rates ] and terminal growth rates – the Stapled Group acquired CPF2L as explained in the key audit matter above which increases the risk of inaccurate forecasts or a wider range of possible outcomes for us to consider;

  • [In addition to the uncertainties described ] above, the Stapled Group’s model is sensitive to changes in these assumptions which may reduce available headroom. This drives additional audit effort specific to their feasibility and consistency of application to the Stapled Group’s strategy; and

Our procedures included:

  • Assessing the appropriateness of the value in use method applied by the Stapled Group to perform the annual test of goodwill for impairment against the requirements of the accounting standards;

  • Assessing the Stapled Group’s determination of their CGUs based on our understanding of the operations of the Stapled Group’s business, impact of 360 acquisition, and how independent cash flows were generated, against the requirements of the accounting standards;

  • Comparing the forecast cash flows contained in the value in use model to Board approved forecasts;

  • Assessing the Stapled Group’s ability to accurately forecast by comparing historical forecasts to actual results;

Valuation of Investment Properties ($257.1m)

Refer to Note C4 to the Financial Report

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

The valuation of investment properties is a key audit matter as they are significant in value to the Stapled Group and significant judgment is required by us in assessing the Stapled Group’s inputs into the valuation methodology used to estimate their value.

Investment properties are valued at fair value and the fair value is determined by the Stapled Group using internal methodologies or through the use of external valuation experts.

Our procedures included:

  • Understanding the Stapled Group’s process regarding the preparation, review and approval of the internal and external valuation of property assets;

  • Assessing the methodologies used in the valuations of property assets for consistency with accounting standards and Stapled Group policies;

  • Assessing the scope, competence and objectivity of external independent experts engaged by the Stapled Group and internal valuers; and

Hedge Accounting and Valuation of derivatives ($18.2m)

Refer to Note F3(c)(iv) to the Financial Report

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

The Stapled Group issues reverse mortgages and enters into an interest rate swap derivative contract to manage the interest rate risk associated with the reverse mortgage. The Stapled Group applies hedge accounting on the interest rate swap derivative contract.

The hedge accounting and valuation of derivatives was identified as a key audit matter due to the complexity in auditing the hedging arrangement. This is a result of the complex hedge accounting requirements and the significant judgments made by the Stapled Group in the valuation of the derivative such as the credit spread which required our specialist involvement.

  • Involving our specialist, our procedures included: • Reading the hedge documentation and assessing the accounting for the hedge arrangement and effectiveness against the requirements of the Australian Accounting Standards;

  • • Comparing the Stapled Group’s determination of the weighted average maturity used in the credit spread calculation against the historical maturity and age of reverse mortgage borrower;

  • • Evaluating the sensitivity of the hedge model by varying the weighted average maturity used in the credit spread calculation, within a reasonably possible range, to identify management bias or inconsistency in application;

  • Assessing the reasonableness of the credit spread by comparing the relevant Australia Corporate Curve from Bloomberg to the Australian Dollar Swap Curve; and

  • Independently valuing the swap portfolio and comparing it to the Stapled Group’s valuation.

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report and our related assurance opinion.

In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other Information. In doing so, we consider whether the Other Information is materially inconsistent with the Financial Report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

  • implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error

  • assessing the Stapled Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the Stapled Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our objective is:

  • to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

A About the report

A1 General information

At an Extraordinary General Meeting on 10 October 2016, the shareholders of Centuria Capital Limited ABN 22 095 454 336 ('CCL’), incorporated and listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’) trading under the ticker code ‘CNI’, approved the proposal to establish Centuria Capital Group by amending CCL's Constitution to allow the stapling of units in the trust, Centuria Capital Fund ARSN 613 856 358 (the 'Fund'), to their shares.

Under the stapling, CCL's existing business was split into two parts. CCL continues to be the operating entity, carrying on its property funds management, active asset management and investment bond management businesses, with CCL's property investments transferred to the Fund.

The units in the Fund and the shares in CCL are stapled to trade together as a single stapled security (‘Stapled Security’) on the ASX as 'Centuria Capiutal Group' under an unchanged ASX ticker code of CNI. The Stapled Securities commenced trading on the day after the stapling which occurred on 17 October 2016.

The Fund and its controlled entities (the 'Group') is a for-profit entity and its principal activities are holding direct interest in property funds and other liquid investments.

Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001 . The consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The consolidated financial statements of the Group comprising the Fund (as ‘Parent’) and its controlled entities for the year ended 30 June 2017 were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors of Centuria Funds Management Limited as the Responsible Entity on 23 August 2017.

This Fund was established on 20 July 2016. These consolidated financial statements reflect the results of operations and financial affairs of the Fund from its inception to 30 June 2017. As a result, this being the first year of operation, no comparative financial information is available.

Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for derivative financial instruments, financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, investment properties and other financial assets, which have been measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Group's functional currency, unless otherwise noted.

Assets and liabilities have been presented on the face of the Statement of financial position in decreasing order of liquidity and do not distinguish between current and non-current items.

Rounding of amounts

The Fund The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Legislative Instrument 2016/191, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the financial statements. Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off in accordance with the instrument to the nearest thousand dollars unless otherwise indicated.

A2 Significant accounting policies

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner that ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events are reported.

These consolidated financial statements contain all significant accounting policies that summarise the recognition and measurement basis used and which are relevant to provide an understanding of the financial statements. Accounting policies that are specific to a note to the financial statements are described in the note to which they relate.

About the report

A3 Use of judgements and estimates

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense that are not readily apparent from other sources. The judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:

Recognition and measurement

All financial assets are recognised and derecognised on trade date where the purchase or sale of a financial asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the financial asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value.

Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the statement of comprehensive income.

Recognition and measurement

Investment properties are properties held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both. Investment properties are initially recorded at cost which includes stamp duty and other transaction costs. Subsequently, the investment properties are measured at fair value with any change in value recognised in profit or loss. The carrying amount of investment properties includes components relating to deferred rent, lease incentives and leasing fees.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

Key estimate and judgements

(a) Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs

The fair value of the investment properties were determined by the Directors of the Responsible Entity of the relevant funds or by an external, independent valuer having an appropriate recognised professional qualification and recent experience in the location and category of the properties being valued. Fair value is based on market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

The valuations were prepared by considering the following valuation methodologies:

  • Capitalisation approach: the annual net rental income is capitalised at an appropriate market yield to arrive at the property's market value. Appropriate capital adjustments are then made where necessary to reflect the specific cash flow profile and the general characteristics of the property.

  • Discounted cash flow approach: this approach incorporates the estimation of future annual cash flows over a 10 year period by reference to expected rental growth rates, ongoing capital expenditure, terminal sale value and acquisition and disposal costs. The present value of future cash flows is then determined by the application of an appropriate discount rate to derive a net present value for the property.

  • Direct comparison approach: this approach identifies comparable sales on a dollar per square metre of lettable area basis and compares the equivalent rates to the property being valued to determine the property's market value.

Centuria Capital Fund 20 30 June 2017

Assets and liabilities

C3 Investment properties (continued)

(a) Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs (continued)

The valuations reflect, when appropriate, the type of tenants actually in occupation or responsible for meeting lease commitments or likely to be in occupation after letting of vacant accommodation and the market’s general perception of their credit-worthiness; the allocation of maintenance and insurance responsibilities between the lessor and lessee; and the remaining economic life of the property. It has been assumed that whenever rent reviews or lease renewals are pending with anticipated reversionary increases, all notices and, where appropriate, counter notices have been served validly and within the appropriate time.

The most significant unobservable input used in the above valuation techniques and its relationship with fair value measurement is the capitalisation rate. The higher/lower the rate, the lower/higher the fair value.

(b) Fair value measurement

The fair value measurement of investment properties has been categorised as a Level 3 fair value as it is derived from valuation techniques that include inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

(i) Sundry creditors are non-interest bearing liabilities and are payable on commercial terms of 7 to 60 days.

Recognition and measurement

Trade payables and other accounts payable are recognised when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. Due to the short-term nature of these financial obligations, their carrying amounts are estimated to represent their fair values.

E1 Business combination

(a) Stapling

The stapling of the Fund and CCL was approved at an Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders of CCL on 10 October 2016. Following approval of the stapling, shares in the CCL and units in Fund were stapled to one another on 17 October 2016 and are traded as a single security on the ASX.

The Fund was established by the transfer of the CCL's interest in Centuria Metropolitan REIT (‘CMA’) and other co-investments to the Fund in exchange for $52,535,795 in equity of the Fund. Assets transferred to the Fund were transferred at fair value.

(b) 360 Capital acquisition

On 23 November 2016, the Centuria Capital Group announced the purchase of all of the shares in Centuria Property Funds No. 2 Limited (formerly 360 Capital Investment Management Limited) (‘CPF2L’) and associated management rights over listed and unlisted property investment funds for which CPF2L is the responsible entity from 360 Capital Group Limited (‘360 Capital’). Also as part of the acquisition, the Centuria Capital Fund Group agreed to acquire various stakes in those listed and unlisted funds.

The acquisition of shares in CPF2L and the interests in the listed and unlisted property investment funds (collectively, the ‘Transaction’) was settled on 9 January 2017.

This acquisition was funded by a combination of debt, equity and existing cash reserves, including $150,000,000 capital raised by Centuria Capital Group from new and existing institutional investors, and a vendor loan amounting to $50,000,000.

The acquisition also included a call option and a put option over stakes in the four unlisted property investment funds managed by CPF2L with a maximum option period of 2 years following completion of the acquisition.

Details of the purchase consideration, the net assets acquired and goodwill recognised are as follows:

(i) Transaction related costs

Transaction related costs of $7,213,809 were incurred of which $1,717,669 are included in expenses in profit or loss and $6,037,140 are recognised directly in contributed equity.

(ii) Contingent consideration

The contingent consideration arrangement requires the Group to guarantee the distribution yield on co-investment stakes in unlisted property funds subject to put and call options to 7.5%. The contingent consideration liability recognised reflects the Group's expectation of the fair value of the amounts to be paid over the contingent period. The distributions are expected to be less than the guaranteed return.

Recognition and measurement

Acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Group. The consideration for each acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values (at the date of acquisition) of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

E2 Interests in subsidiaries

The Group's principal subsidiaries at 2017 are set out below. Unless otherwise stated, they have issued capital consisting solely of ordinary units that are held directly by the Group, and the proportion of ownership interests held equals the voting rights held by the Group. The subsidiaries are incorporated in Australia which is also their principal place of business.

During the year, as part of the 360 Capital Transaction, the Group gained control over four unlisted property funds including Centuria 111 St Georges Terrace Fund, Centuria Retail Fund, Centuria Havelock House Fund and Centuria 441 Muarry Street Fund. These funds have been consolidated in these financial statements.

Recognition and measurement

(i) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Fund and entities controlled by the Fund (subsidiaries). The Group controls an entity when it 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 over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

F Other

F1 Financial instruments

(a) Management of financial instruments

The Board is ultimately responsible for the Risk Management Framework of the Group.

The Group employs a cascading approach to managing risk, facilitated through delegation to specialist committees and individuals within the Group.

The Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks as a result of its activities. These risks include market risk (including interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's risk management and investment policies, approved by the Board, seek to minimise the potential adverse effects of these risks on the Group's financial performance. These policies may include the use of certain financial derivative instruments.

The Group uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk and not for speculative purposes in any situation. Hedging is put in place where the Group is either seeking to minimise or eliminate cash-flow variability, i.e., converting variable rates to fixed rates, or changes in the fair values of underlying assets or liabilities, i.e., to convert fixed rates to variable rates.

(b) Capital risk management

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of debt and equity capital.

The Group's capital structure consists of net debt (borrowings, offset by cash and cash equivalents) and equity of the Group (comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings).

The Group carries on business throughout Australia, primarily through subsidiary companies that are established in the markets in which the Group operates.

Operating cash flows are used to maintain and, where appropriate, expand the Group's funds under management as well as to make the routine outflows of tax, dividends and repayment of maturing debt. The Group reviews regularly its anticipated funding requirements and the most appropriate form of funding (capital raising or borrowings) depending on what the funding will be used for.

(c) Fair value of financial instruments

(i) Valuation techniques and assumptions applied in determining fair value

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded on active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices (includes listed redeemable notes, bills of exchange, debentures and perpetual notes).

The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices from observable current market transactions and dealer quotes for similar instruments. Discount rates are determined based on market rates applicable to the financial asset or liability.

(ii) Valuation techniques and assumptions applied in determining fair value of derivatives

The fair values of derivative instruments are calculated using quoted prices. Where such prices are not available, discounted cash flow analysis is performed using the applicable yield curve for the duration of the instruments for non-optional derivatives, and option pricing models for optional derivatives.

(iii) Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy for financial instruments measured at fair value.

The table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.

  • Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Interest rate swaps at fair value Fair value Level 2 (1,134) (1,134)
(302,879) (303,795)

The Group determines Level 2 fair values for financial assets and liabilities without an active market based on broker quotes. Level 2 fair values for simple over-the-counter derivatives are also based on broker quotes. Those quotes are tested for reasonableness by discounting expected future cash flows using market interest rates for a similar instrument at the measurement date. Fair values reflect the credit risk of the instrument and include adjustments to take account of the credit risk of the entity and counterparty where appropriate.

Recognition and measurement

The Group enters into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate risk.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event, the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship.

(d) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating risk of financial loss from default. The credit risk on financial assets of the Group and the parent recognised in the statement of financial position is generally the carrying amount, net of allowance for impairment loss.

Concentration of risk may exist when the volume of transactions limits the number of counterparties.

(i) Credit risk on other financial assets

Credit risk on other financial assets such as investments in floating rate notes, standard discount securities and unit trusts is managed through strategic asset allocations with creditworthy counterparties and the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of investments, including the use of credit ratings issued by well-known rating agencies. The exposure of credit risk in respect of financial assets is minimal.

The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single entity in other financial assets or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics.

Centuria Capital Fund 29 30 June 2017

Other

F1 Financial instruments (continued)

(e) Liquidity risk

The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities.

The liquidity risk is managed for the Group at a corporate level. Bank account balances across all entities, current and future commitments, and expected cash inflows are reviewed in detail when the monthly cash flow projection is prepared for management purposes and presented to the Board at its regular monthly meetings. By comparing the projected cash flows with the assets and liabilities shown in the individual and consolidated statements of financial position, which are also prepared on a monthly basis for management purposes and presented to the Board, liquidity requirements for the Group can be determined. Based on this review, if it is considered that the expected cash inflows plus liquidity on hand, may not be sufficient in the near term to meet cash outflow requirements, including repayment of borrowings, a decision can be made to carry out one or more of the following:

  • renegotiate the repayment terms of the borrowings;

  • sell assets that are held on the statement of financial position; and/or

  • undertake an equity raising.

This, combined with a profitable business going forward, should ensure that the Group continues to meet its commitments, including repayments of borrowings, as and when required.

The following table summarises the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group and the parent can be required to pay. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are at floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curves at the end of the reporting period.

F1 Financial instruments (continued)

(f) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises interest rate risk and price risk. Due to the nature of assets held by the Group, there is an asset and liability management process which determines the interest rate sensitivity of the statement of financial position and the implementation of risk management practices to hedge the potential effects of interest rate changes.

(i) Interest rate risk management

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group borrow funds at floating interest rates. Management of this risk is evaluated regularly and interest rate swaps are used accordingly.

The tables below detail the Group's interest bearing financial assets and liabilities.

Net interest bearing financial assets/(liabilities) 5.98% (130,287) (59,900) (190,187)

(ii) Interest rate swap contracts

Under interest rate swap contracts, the Group agrees to exchange the difference between fixed and floating rate interest amounts calculated on agreed notional principal amounts. Such contracts enable the Group to mitigate the risk of changing interest rates on the fair value of fixed rate financial assets held and the cash flow exposures on the issued variable rate debt.

The following table details the notional principal amounts and remaining expiry of the Group's outstanding interest rate swap contracts as at reporting date. These swaps are at fair value through profit and loss.

(iii) Interest rate sensitivity

The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the parent and the Group's exposure to interest rates at the balance date and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period, in the case of financial assets and financial liabilities that have variable interest rates. A 100 basis point (1%) increase or decrease represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rate.

At reporting date, if variable interest rates had been 100 basis points higher or lower and all other variables were held constant, the impact to the Group would have been as follows:

F3 New Accounting Standards and Interpretations

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2017 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.

(a) AASB 9 Financial Instruments

(i) Nature of change

AASB 9 addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, introduces new rules for hedge accounting and a new impairment model for financial assets.

(ii) Impact

While the Group has yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the classification and measurement of financial assets, the likely impact on the Group's financial assets is as follows:

  • equity investments currently measured at fair value through profit or loss which would likely continue to be measured on the same basis under AASB 9

  • debt instruments currently classified as held-to-maturity and measured at amortised cost which appear to meet the conditions for classification at amortised cost under AASB 9.

Accordingly, the Group does not expect the new guidance to have a significant impact on the classification and measurement of its financial assets.

Centuria Capital Fund 32 30 June 2017

Other

F3 New Accounting Standards and Interpretations (continued)

(a) AASB 9 Financial Instruments (continued)

(ii) Impact (continued)

There will be no impact on the Group’s accounting for financial liabilities, as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and the group does not have any such liabilities. The derecognition rules have been transferred from AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and have not been changed.

The new hedge accounting rules generally allow for more hedge relationships to be eligible for hedge accounting, as the standard introduces a more principles-based approach. The Group currently does not not expect a significant impact as a result of the hedging changes.

The new impairment model requires the recognition of impairment provisions based on expected credit losses rather than only incurred credit losses as is the case under AASB 139. It applies to financial assets classified at amortised cost, debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, contract assets under AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers , lease receivables, loan commitments and certain financial guarantee contracts. While the Group has not yet undertaken a detailed assessment of how its impairment provisions would be affected by the new model, it may result in an earlier recognition of credit losses.

The new standard also introduces expanded disclosure requirements and changes in presentation. These are expected to change the nature and extent of the Group’s disclosures about its financial instruments particularly in the year of the adoption of the new standard.

(iii) Mandatory application date

Must be applied for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2018, but available for early adoption. therefore mandatory application to the Group would be year ending 30 June 2019.

The Group does not intend to adopt AASB 9 before its mandatory date.

(b) AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

(i) Nature of change

The AASB has issued a new standard for the recognition of revenue. This will replace AASB 118 which covers revenue arising from the sale of goods and the rendering of services and AASB 111 which covers construction contracts.

The new standard is based on the principle that revenue is recognised when control of a good or service transfers to a customer.

The standard permits either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption.

(ii) Impact

The Group has not yet made an assessment of its revenues, other fees and management contracts but timing and classification of fees could be impacted.

At this stage, the Group is not able to estimate the effect of the new rules on the Group’s financial statements. The Group will continue to assess the effects of the new standard in more detail over the next twelve months.

(iii) Mandatory application date

Mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2018, but available for early adoption. Therefore mandatory application to the Group would be year ending 30 June 2019.

The Group does not intend to adopt AASB 15 before its mandatory date.

Centuria Capital Fund 33 30 June 2017

Other

F3 New Accounting Standards and Interpretations (continued)

(c) AASB 16 Leases

(i) Nature of change

AASB 16 was issued in February 2016. It will result in almost all leases being recognised on the balance sheet, as the distinction between operating and finance leases is removed. Under the new standard, an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals are recognised. The only exceptions are short-term and low-value leases.

The accounting for lessors will not significantly change.

(ii) Impact

The standard will affect primarily the accounting for the Group’s operating leases. As at the reporting date, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments as outlined in note C6(a). However, the Group’ has not yet determined to what extent these commitments will result in the recognition of an asset and a liability for future payments and how this will affect the Group’s profit and classification of cash flows.

Some of the commitments may be covered by the exception for short-term and low-value leases and some commitments may relate to arrangements that will not qualify as leases under AASB 16.

(iii) Mandatory application date

Mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2019, but available for early adoption. Therefore mandatory application to the Group would be year ending 30 June 2020.

At this stage, the Group has not concluded whether it intends to adopt AASB 16 before its mandatory date.

There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

F4 Events subsequent to the reporting date

(i) Units purchased in Centuria Metropolitan REIT

On 27 July 2017, the Group acquired 4,127,265 units in Centuria Metropolitan REIT for $2.35 per unit.

(ii) Settlement of Centuria Sandgate Road Fund

The Group acquired 37,932,023 of acquisition units in Centuria Sandgate Road Fund on 7 July 2017 for $1 per unit upon settlement of the Property. As at 14 August 2017, the Group had sold down 18,950,249 of these acquisition units.

Other than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between 30 June 2017 and the date hereof any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the directors of the Fund, to affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group, in future financial years.

We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other Information, and based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report we have nothing to report.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The Directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for:

  • preparing the Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001

  • implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error

  • assessing the Fund’s ability to continue as a going concern. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate Fund or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

Our objective is:

  • to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

  • to issue an Auditor’s Report that includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this Financial Report.

A further description of our responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_files/ar7.pdf. This description forms part of our Auditor’s Report.
