CPT Global Limited and Controlled Entities – Annual Report
Chairman’s Statement
Dear Fellow CPT Global Shareholder,
CPT Global delivered a modest profit in the 2012 financial year as the ongoing challenging economic conditions continued to adversely impact our performance particularly in the international markets. Total revenues were higher than the prior year with increases being recorded by both our Australian and international operations. However profit was reduced due to a contraction in margins experienced across all of our regions. Over the past year our client base has expanded and the pipeline of potential business in our international markets continues to grow with new opportunities now emerging in Asia and South America. CPT ended the year with cash of $1.1m and remains committed to realising the benefit of our continuing extensive global business development activities.
Our Australian operations increased revenue but at lower margins than in the prior year. In Victoria, which is home to six of our top ten clients, revenues grew well and despite some pressure on margins profit contribution was up. After last year’s poor performance in NSW our revenues grew strongly there as a new top ten client relationship was developed but margins again were tight. Offsetting these revenue gains was a weaker performance by our ACT business where new business opportunities with the Federal Government have slowed and remain a concern. Our Australian operations remain the backbone of CPT’s business and provide many of the resources for our international activities. While the past changes made to our business development team in Australia have resulted in an increase in revenue there is a need this financial year to focus on improving margins and controlling costs.
Despite challenging economic conditions, CPT again grew revenue from its international operations with increases from both our European and US operations. In Europe revenues were higher but were offset by a reduction in margins and higher overheads. In addition delays by two significant clients late in the year unfortunately resulted in the postponement of some attractive revenue and margin contribution. The US operations again generated record revenues but were also adversely impacted by lower margins and higher costs. The size and quality of CPT’s international client base continues to develop with around 30% of our revenue now coming from our offshore operations. Furthermore during the year CPT made significant progress with business development opportunities in both Asia and South America. As a result we now have our first client in mainland China and are well advanced in discussions with some of Brazil’s largest entities.
In 2012 our revenue grew by around 4% with increases across Australia, Europe and the US. However with lower margins in all regions, higher costs and some delays in the establishment of new client relationships, CPT delivered a net profit after tax of $0.6m compared to $1.1m in the prior year. Given the lower profit CPT will pay a dividend of 1.5 cents per share (fully franked) compared to 2.5 cents per share (fully franked) last year. CPT ended the financial year with cash of $1.1m and no bank debt.
While CPT was able to record an increase in revenue over the past twelve months we are yet to deliver satisfactory returns to our shareholders for the investment we have made in developing our international operations. Our lower profit in 2012 is a major disappointment but is driven in part by the reduction in margins due to the competitive Australian market and ongoing difficult global economic conditions together with the costs of our extensive business development activities which now cover much of the Globe. While relationships have been developed with many of the world’s most significant companies the intervention of the Global Financial Crisis has greatly hampered our efforts to convert this potential into revenue and profits. This is very frustrating for the CPT team especially when client relationships are delayed for extraneous factors after significant effort by all concerned. An easy option would be to pull back on these activities but your Board believes that CPT must continue to pursue these opportunities and that shareholders will ultimately be well rewarded.
CPT’s strategy is still to grow revenue in all our regions, improve our margins and control costs. Our business development activities remain a very high priority and over the past twelve months our Managing Director Gerry Tuddenham and his team have spent a substantial amount of time driving the sales efforts in Europe, North and South America, and Asia.

Chairman’s Statement
In the current challenging environment particular mention must be made of the ongoing effort of CPT’s strong team of technically skilled and loyal staff and consultants who remain focused on serving our clients’ needs globally. I wish to thank my fellow directors and all of our staff, under the leadership of our Managing Director, Gerry Tuddenham, for their ongoing contribution to CPT’s performance. Despite the ongoing difficult global economic conditions I expect that CPT’s past efforts should soon be rewarded through more attractive shareholder returns generated from the increased profit of our Australian and international businesses.

Managing Director’s Review
Fellow Shareholders,
The 2011/12 financial year was a difficult one for CPT Global. After a consolidation phase where the business was ‘right sized’ and ‘refocused’ on the next plank in the Company’s growth strategy, economic headwinds emerged in the form of the Eurozone financial crisis, the continued strengthening of the Australian dollar and federal government funding cuts resulting in a reduction in the number of IT projects undertaken by the Federal government. Each of these had a negative impact on the business, with European clients delaying their investment decisions, overseas revenue streams losing value on conversion to Australian currency and CPT’s presence in the Canberra market downsizing. Notwithstanding this, a number of highlights emerged such as the growth of a number of tier one clients in the Melbourne market, an increased footprint in the Sydney market including the establishment of a new tier one client and the emergence of business opportunities in the Asian and South American markets, working closely with newly developed business partners. Although a number of international client decisions were delayed resulting in a push of 2011/12 revenues in to 2012/13, revenues still grew by 4% on 2010/11 and a modest after tax profit of $0.61m was achieved. As the year closed, CPT still retained a strong opportunity pipeline in all regions as well as newly identified opportunities in the Asian and South American markets. Whilst the economic climate acted to delay the Company’s growth plans, we strongly believe that the new financial year will see the commencement of new large projects and the establishment of new significant clients.
Operating and Financial Review
In a tightening Australian market, revenue increased by 2.2% from 2010/11 primarily due to the growth of CPT’s activity in finance sector clients, where revenues increased by 25% on prior year levels. From a regional standpoint, revenues earned from the Melbourne and Sydney markets grew by 7% and 55% respectively on the prior year. This growth was offset by a year on year reduction in revenues earned from the Canberra market of 42%. Contract margins achieved in the year dropped by 2% in comparison to those earned in 2010/11, as market conditions tightened.
International revenue increased by 6.9% compared to prior year levels, even after being negatively impacted by approximately $0.3m by the strengthening Australia dollar. The North American operation increased revenues by 5.2% and the European operation revenues increased by 8.4%. Contract margins fell by approximately 6% in comparison to those earned in FY 11, predominantly due to a reduction in phase 2 activities in the year.
CPT Global’s revenue for the year ended 30 June 2012 was $39.5 million, a 4% increase on the previous year’s revenue of $38.1 million.
CPT Global’s net profit after tax for the year ended 30 June 2012 was $0.6m, a reduction of $0.45m on the 30 June 2011 result.
No dividend has been declared for the second half of the financial year, although a 1.5 cent per share dividend was declared in the first half.
Basic earnings per share amounted to 1.66 cents per share (diluted earnings 1.66 cents per share).
CPT Global’s balance sheet reflected net tangible assets of $5.56m as at 30 June 2012 ($5.96m 30 June 2011) with net cash holdings of $1.1m at 30 June 2012 ($0.9m 30 June 2011).
From a market development standpoint, CPT closed the year with an opportunity pipeline of $50.2m, $15.1m in the Australian market and $35.1m in the international markets.

Strategy
The Australian business strategy comprises two key components. Firstly, from a service offering standpoint, we will continue to enhance and refine the methods and processes behind our ongoing service capability in the areas of capacity planning, performance tuning and testing, to achieve solution based service offerings. This will lead to enhanced service delivery efficiencies, more competitive pricing and margin expansion. Secondly, from a sales and market standpoint, we will continue to build our client base with logically selected, blue chip clients bringing them value from the start of the engagement, leading to a growing client footprint. All existing clients have well articulated account service plans in place, targeting the continuation of this strategy.
For the International business, we will continue leveraging the business development investments of the past, converting many of the phase 1 exploratory cost reduction assignments already undertaken, to the more lucrative phase 2 engagements where substantial savings are identified and passed on to clients. This will ultimately lead to growing the annuity revenue base by taking on long term engagements at the completion of the phase 2 assignments to protect client cost efficiencies on an ongoing basis. We expect margins to increase as the number of phase 2 engagements increase, as these typically provide the company with its largest reward for services provided.
As we continue to pursue new markets such as Asia and South America, we will continue to leverage existing business partnerships and Austrade, to properly qualify opportunities and subsequently engage with new clients.
Continued growth of the Australian Capacity Planning and Performance Tuning Center of Excellence will add to the scale and flexibility of the company’s service offering by enhancing the capability of remotely providing service simultaneously to a range of overseas clients in various geographic locations.

CPT Worldwide Market by Sector and Line of Business
Detailed below is an illustration of the business sectors that CPT provides services to globally. While CPT remains in the same market sectors and lines of business as prior years, the last year has seen a continued growth in the Banking and Finance sector in each geography, coming from a reduction in the Government and Telecommunications sectors.
Revenue by Sector (Worldwide)
==> picture [440 x 267] intentionally omitted <==
This shift has also led to a change in the revenue earned from CPT’s various lines of business, where the provision of Testing services has grown by 7% as Capacity Management and Project and Program Management services reduced by 3% and 2% respectively. This is testament to the flexibility of the CPT resource base which is able to scale up and down as required to suit changing client requirements.

Key Highlights
The following key highlights were achieved in 2011/12:

-
3) Internationally, the commencement of five large phase 2 success fee engagements and two proof of concept engagements with large clients, which will underpin growth of the international business in the near term;
-
4) The commencement of work at CPT’s first Asian client;
-
5) The continued expansion of CPT’s cost minimisation methodologies from the mainframe to the mid range environment;
-
6) Winning the 2011 Governor of Victoria Export Award for the IT and ICT industry.

Managing Director’s Review continued
Our People
CPT maintains a truly flexible workforce in terms of the number of resources available and the locations they work around the world. While each CPT location maintains a nucleus of professionals to provide clients with ongoing contact, resources are augmented from the global resource pool and the Capacity Planning and Performance Tuning Centre of Excellence in Australia, to suit client and project needs. CPT staff are continually kept abreast of technical developments through focus group contact, structured training programs and informal training sessions This ensures capabilities are maintained at the appropriate level. All of this has led to our enhanced ability to deliver a better service more efficiently on a global scale.
Outlook
The Australian market is expected to remain tough for the foreseeable future. Notwithstanding this, we expect growth to be achieved in the Melbourne and Sydney markets, as we leverage our strategic relationships and new tier one client accounts. We anticipate that revenue from our Federal division will remain flat for the foreseeable future.
Although the international economic environment will remain tight and unpredictable, we believe the International business will grow at a faster rate over the next few years based on CPT’s proven value proposition and very strong opportunity pipeline. Margins will remain strong due to (1) the increased number of phase 2 engagements and (2) increased resource scalability as the level of services provided offshore by the Australian Centre of Excellence increases.
A key driver to the success over the next financial year will continue to be the timing of engagement commencements. We believe that our resourcing model can gear up quickly to respond to the opportunities as they arise. Your Board understands the formula for success and is confident it will deliver on the objectives of the next year of CPT’s strategic plan.

Corporate Governance Statement
The Board of Directors of CPT Global is responsible for the corporate governance of the group. The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of CPT Global on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable.
The format of the Corporate Governance Statement is based on the Australian Stock Exchange Corporate Governance Council's (the Council's) "Corporate Governance Principals and Recommendations" (the Recommendations). In accordance with the Council's recommendations, the Corporate Governance Statement must contain certain specific information and must disclose the extent to which the company has followed the guidelines during the period. Where a recommendation has not been followed, that fact must be disclosed, together with the reasons for the departure. CPT Global’s Corporate Governance Statement is structured with reference to the Corporate Governance Council's principles and recommendations, which are as follows:
-
Principle 1. Lay solid foundations for management and oversight
-
Principle 2. Structure the Board to add value
-
Principle 3. Promote ethical and responsible decision making
-
Principle 4. Safeguard integrity in financial reporting
-
Principle 5. Make timely and balanced disclosure
-
Principle 6. Respect the rights of shareholders
-
Principle 7. Recognise and manage risk
-
Principle 8. Remunerate fairly and responsibly
Independence
Corporate Governance Council Recommendation 2.1 requires a majority of the Board to be independent directors. In addition, recommendation 2.2 requires the chairperson of the company to be independent. The Corporate Governance Council defines independence as being free from any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with - or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with - the exercise of unfettered and independent judgement. In accordance with this definition, the following directors are not considered to be independent:
-
Gerry Tuddenham (Managing Director)
-
Peter Wright (Executive Director)
Of the four Board members, the two listed above are not considered to be independent when applying the Council's definition of independence. However when considering the casting vote of the independent chairman, the majority of the Board is independent. CPT Global considers industry experience and specific expertise to be important attributes of its Board members.
CPT Global's corporate governance practices were in place throughout the year ended 30 June 2012. The corporate governance practises of CPT Global were compliant with the Council's best practice recommendations except where an executive director serves on the Audit Committee, due to the small size of the Board. Best practice recommends that the Audit Committee should be made up of non-executive directors.
For further information on corporate governance policies adopted by CPT Global, refer to our website: www.CPTglobal.com
Diversity Policy
Diversity includes, but is not limited to, gender, age, ethnicity and cultural background. The company is committed to diversity and recognises the benefits arising from employee and board diversity and the importance of benefiting from all available talent. Accordingly, the company has established a diversity policy.

Corporate Governance Statement
Structure of the Board
The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of director held by each director in office at the date of the annual report is included in the directors' report on page 14. Directors of CPT Global are considered to be independent when they are independent of management and free from any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with - or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with - the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgement.
In the context of director independence, "materiality" is considered from both the company and individual director perspective. The determination of materiality requires consideration of both quantitative and qualitative elements. An item is presumed to be quantitatively immaterial if it is equal or less than 5% of the appropriate base amount. It is presumed to be material (unless there is qualitative evidence to the contrary) if it is equal to or greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount. Qualitative factors considered include whether a relationship is strategically important, the competitive landscape, the nature of the relationship and the contractual or other arrangements governing it and other factors which point to the actual ability of the director in question to shape the direction of the company's strategy.
In accordance with the definition of independence above, and the materiality thresholds set, the following directors of CPT Global are considered to be independent: Name Position Fred Grimwade Non-executive Chairman Alan Baxter Non-executive Director
There are procedures in place, agreed by the Board, to enable directors, in furtherance of their duties, to seek independent professional advice at the company's expense.
The term in office held by each director in office at the date of this report is as follows:
Name Term in office Fred Grimwade 10 years Alan Baxter 2 years Gerry Tuddenham 14 years Peter Wright 11 years
Performance Evaluation
An annual performance evaluation of:
-
The Board and all Board members was conducted by the full Board for the financial year ended 30 June 2012. The Board developed a questionnaire for all Board members to provide feedback on how they thought the Board had performed. The results from the questionnaire were collated and discussed by the Board. The Board developed a series of recommendations to improve performance and an action plan to implement the recommendations and set the performance criteria and goals for the next year.
-
The senior executive team during the year ended 30 June 2012. This encompassed a review of each of their targeted objectives, the extent to which they were achieved and the establishment of future objectives.
Remuneration and Nomination Committee
The Board has a Remuneration and Nomination Committee which meets to ensure that the Board continues to operate within the established guidelines, including when necessary, selecting candidates for the position of director. The Committee is also responsible for ensuring that adequate resourcing levels are maintained, setting and monitoring employment conditions, reviewing the performance of executive directors and senior management and setting the scale of their remuneration. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee comprises all of the non-executive directors. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee comprised the following members throughout the year:

Ethical standards
The Board is committed to its core governance values of integrity, respect, trust and openness among and between board members, management, employees, clients and suppliers. These values are enshrined in the Board’s Code of Conduct which requires all directors, management and employees to at all times:
-
act honestly and in good faith;
-
exercise due care and diligence in fulfilling the functions of office;
-
avoid conflicts and make full disclosure of any possible conflict of interest;
-
comply with both the letter and spirit of the law;
-
encourage the reporting and investigation of unlawful and unethical behaviour; and
-
comply with the share trading policy outlined in the Code of conduct.
Directors are obliged to be independent in judgement and ensure all reasonable steps are taken to ensure that the Board’s core governance values are not compromised in any decisions the Board makes.
Finance and Audit Committee
The Board has a Finance and Audit Committee, which operates under a charter approved by the Board. It is the Board's responsibility to ensure that an effective internal control framework exists within the entity and ensure compliance with ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements. This includes internal controls to deal with both the effectiveness and efficiency of significant business processes, the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records, external reporting and the reliability of financial information as well as non-financial considerations such as the benchmarking of operational key performance indicators. The Board has delegated the responsibility for the establishment and maintenance of a framework of internal control and ethical standards for the management of the consolidated entity to the Finance and Audit Committee.
The Committee also provides the Board with additional assurance regarding the reliability of financial information for inclusion in the financial reports. The Corporate Governance Principles recommend that all Finance and Audit Committee members are non-executive. CPT Global only has two non-executive directors therefore the managing director has also been appointed to the Finance and Audit Committee.
The members of the Finance and Audit Committee during the year were:
-
Fred Grimwade (C)
-
Alan Baxter
-
Gerry Tuddenham
For details of directors' attendance at meetings of the Finance and Audit Committee, refer to page 20 of the Directors' Report.

Corporate Governance Statement
Risk Management
CPT Global takes a proactive approach to risk management. The Board is responsible for ensuring that risks, and also opportunities, are identified on a timely basis and that the group's objectives and activities are aligned with the risks and opportunities identified by the Board.
The main risks that could negatively impact on the performance of the Group’s business include:
-
the economic environment both locally and overseas;
-
the availability of professional IT resources;
-
the value of the Australian dollar;
-
Government policy, budget and spending levels.
The group believes that it is crucial for all Board members to be a part of risk management process, and as such the Board has not established a separate risk management committee. Instead sub-committees are convened as appropriate in response to issues and risks identified by the Board as a whole, and the sub-committee further examines the issue and reports back to the Board.
The Board has a number of mechanisms in place to ensure that management's objectives and activities are aligned with the risks identified by the Board. These include:
-
Board approval of a strategic plan, which encompasses the entity's vision, mission and strategy statements, designed to meet stakeholders’ needs and manage business risk.
-
Implementation of Board approved operating plans and budgets and Board monitoring of progress against these budgets, including the establishment and monitoring of Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) of both a financial and non-financial nature.
-
The establishment of committees to report on specific business risks, including for example, such matters as the financial risks and concerns and occupational health and safety.
In addition to their regular reporting on business risks, risk management and internal control systems, the CEO and Chief financial Officer also provide the Board with assurance that the directors declaration provided with the annual report is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that this system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to the financial reporting risks. This assurance is provided prior to the meeting at which the directors are due to authorise and sign the company’s financial statements.
Trading Policy
The company’s policy regarding directors and employees trading in its securities is set by the Finance and Audit Committee. The policy restricts directors and employees from acting on material information until it has been released to the market and adequate time has been given for this to be reflected in the securities price.

Except for the above, no other matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial year which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the economic entity, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the economic entity in future financial years.
LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS
Likely developments in the operations of the economic entity and the expected results of those operations in future financial years have not been included in this report as the inclusion of such information is likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the economic entity.

The total premium paid was $39,230.
REMUNERATION REPORT
Remuneration policy
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the directors, the managing director and the executive team. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emoluments of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team. The outcomes of the remuneration structure are expected to comply with Executive Share and Option Scheme Guidelines, IFSA Guidance Note, Investment and Financial Services Association, 2003. The payment of bonuses, stock options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee annually as part of the review of executive remuneration and a recommendation is put to the Board for approval. All bonuses, options and incentives must be linked to pre-determined performance criteria. The Board can exercise its discretion in relation to approving the incentives, bonuses and options and can recommend changes to the Committee's recommendations. Any changes must be justified by reference to measurable performance criteria. Details of such incentives awarded during the year are detailed below. Further details on the remuneration of directors and executives are provided in Note 28 to the financial statements
To assist in achieving these objectives, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee links the nature and amount of executive directors' and officers' emoluments to the company's financial and operational performance and shareholders value.
Performance-based remuneration
Annual salary reviews are linked directly to directors’ and executives’ achievements of key performance indicators (KPIs). The KPIs are set annually after consultation with the directors and executives. The measures are specifically tailored to the areas where each executive has a level of control. The KPIs target areas the Board believes hold the greatest potential for expansion and profit, covering financial and non-financial goals as well as short and long-term goals.
The Board may, at its discretion, award bonuses for exceptional performance in relation to the pre-agreed KPIs.

Directors’ Report
Company performance, shareholder wealth and director and executive remuneration
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, directors and executives. There have been two methods applied in achieving this aim, the first being annual salary reviews based on key performance indicators, and the second being the issue of shares and options to selected directors and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The company believes this policy to have been effective in increasing shareholder wealth over the past five years.
The following table shows the net profit and dividends for the last five y ears for the listed entity, as well as the share price at the end of the respective financial years. The analysis reflects a profit reduction for the current year which is matched by a reduced dividend. This performance has been attributed to the continued investment in overseas opportunities in which delays have been encountered in reaching contract finalisation and tightening margins across the business. The board is of the opinion that the remuneration policy is effective and can be linked to current years result.
| 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Net profit/(loss) | $1.648m | $2.171m | ($3.133m) | $1.052m | $0.6m |
| Share price at year end | $0.75 | $0.51 | $0.56 | $0.64 | $0.41 |
| Dividends paid | 5.00c | 5.50c | 0.00c | 2.50c | 1.50c |
During the year, no shares were purchased as part of the share buyback. The share price during the year ranged from a low of $0.40 to a high of $0.66.

CPT Global Limited and Controlled Entities - Annual Report
Notes to the Financial Statements
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of CPT Global Limited and its controlled entities (collectively referred to as ‘the Group’ or ‘the Economic Entity’). The separate financial statements of the Parent Entity, CPT Global Limited, have not been presented within this financial report as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.
The principal activities of the group during the financial year were the provision of specialist IT consultancy services. The registered address and principal place of business is level 1, 4 Riverside Quay, Southbank, Victoria.
Basis of Preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. All amounts are in Australian dollars unless otherwise stated.
During the current year the Group adopted all of the amending Australian Accounting Standards and New Interpretations applicable to its operations which became mandatory. The adoption of these standards has had no significant impact on these financial statements.
Accounting Policies
(a) Principles of consolidation
A controlled entity is any entity over which CPT Global Limited has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are considered.
A list of controlled entities is contained in note 12 to the financial statements.
As at the end of the reporting period, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the consolidated financial statements as well as their results for the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered (left) the Group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from the date control was obtained (ceased).
All inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the Group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity by making the necessary adjustments to the subsidiary’s accounts.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements have been prepared as of the same reporting date as the parent.

CPT Global Limited and Controlled Entities - Annual Report
Notes to the Financial Statements
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(b) Income Tax
The income tax expense/(revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense/(income) and deferred tax expense/(income).
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities/ (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to/(recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense/(income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences, and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
(c) Unbilled Revenue
Work in progress is valued at cost plus profit recognised to date less any provision for anticipated future losses. Cost includes both variable and fixed costs relating to specific contracts, and those costs that are attributable to the contract activity in general and that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.
Profits are recognised on the stage of completion basis measured using the proportion of costs incurred to date as compared to expected total costs. Where losses are anticipated they are provided for in full.
Revenue has been recognised on the basis of the terms of the contract adjusted for any variations or claims allowable under the contract.

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. When there are indications of any impairment, the recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight line basis over the asset’s useful life to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate Leasehold improvements 20% Fixtures Fittings and Equipment 22.5% to 50% Motor Vehicles 12% to 20%
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are recognised in profit and loss.
(e) Leases
Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership is not transferred to entities in the Group, are classified as finance leases.
Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.
Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term.
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

(f) Financial Instruments
Recognition and measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss’, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.
Classification and subsequent measurement
Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or cost.
Amortised cost is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method.
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in profit or loss.
The Group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are classified at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ when they are either held for trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss.
(ii) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
(iii) Held-to-maturity investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the Group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments. They are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in equity.
(v) Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Derivative instruments
CPT Global Limited and Controlled Entities designate certain derivatives as either:
- i. hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or a firm commitment (fair value hedge); or ii. hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).
At the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the Group’s risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions is documented.
Assessments, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items, are also documented.
(i) Fair value hedge
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognised in profit or loss, together with any changes in the fair value of hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable to the hedged risk.
(ii) Cash flow hedge
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is deferred to a hedge reserve in equity through other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Amounts accumulated in the hedge reserve in equity are transferred to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item will affect profit or loss.
Impairment of Financial Instruments
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a significant or prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether impairment has arisen. In the case of loans and receivables, impairment is recognised when collectability is doubtful (refer to (g) for further details). Impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss.
Financial guarantees
Where material, financial guarantees issued, which require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due, are recognised as a financial liability at fair value on initial recognition.
The guarantee is subsequently measured at the higher of the best estimate of the obligation and the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation in accordance with AASB 118: Revenue. Where the entity gives guarantees in exchange for a fee, revenue is recognised under AASB 118.

CPT Global Limited and Controlled Entities - Annual Report
Notes to the Financial Statements
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
The fair value of financial guarantee contracts has been assessed using a probability weighted discounted cash flow approach. The probability has been based on:
-
the likelihood of the guaranteed party defaulting in a year period;
-
the proportion of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered due to the guaranteed party defaulting; and
-
the maximum loss exposed if the guaranteed party were to default.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
(g) Receivables
Trade receivables are a part of financial instruments (loans and receivables) and are initially recognised at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account (provision for impairment of trade receivables) is used when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial.
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the profit or loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the profit or loss.
(h) Impairment of assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is recognised as an expense in the profit and loss.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Non financial assets, other than goodwill that suffered impairment, are reviewed for possible reversals of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

(i) Intangibles
Goodwill
Goodwill is initially recorded at the amount by which the purchase price for a business combination exceeds the fair value attributed to the interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in investments in associates. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property is recognised at the cost of acquisition and has an indefinite useful life. Intellectual property is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Computer Software
Computer software is recognised at the cost of acquisition. Computer software costs have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Computer software costs are amortised on a diminishing value basis over their useful life. The amortisation rate used for software costs is 37.5%.
(j) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.
Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are re-translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit or loss, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedges.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the profit or loss.
Group companies
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation currency are translated as follows:
-
assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period;
-
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and
-
all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from translation of transactions considered to be net investment in foreign operations are transferred directly to the Group’s foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.

(k) Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are a part of financial instruments (Non-derivative financial liabilities). These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
(l) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Those cashflows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cashflows.
(i) Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the undiscounted amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. When measuring sick leave entitlement, only the unutilised entitlement that is likely to be utilised over and above the leave entitlement that continues to accrue in the future periods is taken into account.
(ii) Long service leave The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
(iii) Retirement benefit obligations
Contributions to defined contributions superannuation funds are recognised as an expense as they become payable.
(iv) Share based payments Share-based compensation benefits are provided to certain employees via the CPT Share and Option Incentive Plan and an employee share scheme. Information relating to these schemes is set out in note 23.
The fair value of options granted under the CPT Share and Option Incentive Plan is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options.
The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Hull-White trinomial option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option.
The fair value of the options granted is adjusted to reflect market vesting conditions, but excludes the impact of any nonmarket vesting conditions (for example, profitability and sales growth targets). Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. At the end of the each reporting period, the entity revises its estimate of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. The employee benefit expense recognised each period takes into account the most recent estimate. The impact of the revision to the original estimates, if any, is recognised in the profit and loss with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

(m) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. A provision for dividends is not recognised as a liability unless the dividends are declared, determined or publicly recommended on or before the end of the reporting period.
(n) Issued Capital
Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Group.
Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.
(o) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
(p) Revenue and Other Income
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as the provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue.
The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Sale of Goods
Significant risk and rewards of ownership of goods has passed to the buyer.
Rendering of Services
Where the contract outcome can be reliably measured, control of the right to be compensated for the services and the stage of completion can be reliably measured. Stage of completion is measured by reference to the labour hours incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated hours for each contract.
Where the contract outcome cannot be reliably measured, revenue is recognised only to the extent that costs have been incurred.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the effective interest rates applicable to the financial assets.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

(q) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
(r) Earnings per share (“EPS”)
Basic EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members, adjusted for:
-
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends;
-
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses;
-
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; and
-
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
(s) Consumption Taxes (GST and VAT)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST and VAT, except:
- where the amount of GST and VAT incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances the GST and VAT is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST and VAT.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows inclusive of GST and VAT.
(t) Government Grants
Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all grant conditions will be met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant to the costs they are compensating.
(u) Comparative Figures
When required by accounting standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
(v) Rounding of Amounts
The parent entity has applied the relief available to it under ASIC Class Order 98/100 and accordingly, amounts in the financial report and directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest $1,000, or in certain cases the nearest dollar.

(w) Critical Accounting Estimates & Judgements
The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.
Key estimates
(i) Impairment of Goodwill
Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units (CGU) to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the CGU and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value.
Refer to Note 14 for details of the assumptions used in this calculation and the potential impact of changes to the assumptions.
Key judgements
(i) Provision for impairment of receivables
Included in trade receivables at the end of the reporting period is an amount receivable from a customer during the current financial year amounting to $33,000. The Group has determined that the recoverability of this debt from the customer is uncertain hence a provision for impairment has been made. An assessment of all accounts outstanding for longer than the agreed trading terms has been undertaken.
(ii) Unbilled revenue
The Group measures unbilled revenue based on information available at the time of recognition. This information includes historical trends, data analysis, significant judgements from key management personnel as to the reasonable expectations of future events and completion of projects in progress. Management has considered certain old amounts as fully recoverable and therefore no provision for impairment was made. See Note 9 for further details.
(x) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Period
The AASB has issued a number of new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods, some of which are relevant to the Group. The Group has decided not to early adopt any of these new and amended pronouncements. The Group’s assessment of the new and amended pronouncements that are relevant to the Group but applicable in future reporting periods is set out below:
AASB 9: Financial Instruments (December 2010) and AASB 2010–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010) (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
These Standards are applicable retrospectively and include revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, as well as recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments.

CPT Global Limited and Controlled Entities - Annual Report

YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
The key changes made to accounting requirements include:
-
simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;
-
simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives;
-
removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets;
-
removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised cost;
-
allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument;
-
requiring financial assets to be reclassified where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based on: (a) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and (b) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows; and
-
requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income, except when that would create an accounting mismatch. If such a mismatch would be created or enlarged, the entity is required to present all changes in fair value (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.
The IASB has issued Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition Disclosures, the effect of which is to defer the mandatory application date of IFRS 9 from 1 January 2013 to 1 January 2015. It is anticipated that the AASB will publish an Australian equivalent the IASB’s Standard, thereby deferring the mandatory application of AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7 to 1 January 2015.
In light of these expected changes, the directors anticipate the Group will adopt AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7 for the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2016. The directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7 may have a significant impact on the amounts reported in respect of financial instruments for the period ending 30 June 2016. However, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of the possible impact on the Group’s financial statements from applying AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7.
The AASB has issued new and amended accounting standards and interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods. The Group has decided against early adoption of these standards. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Group follows:
AASB 2010–8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012).

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
This Standard makes amendments to AASB 112: Income Taxes and incorporates Interpretation 121: Income Taxes – Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets into AASB 112.
Under the current AASB 112, the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets depends on whether an entity expects to recover an asset by using it or by selling it. The amendments introduce a presumption that an investment property is recovered entirely through sale. This presumption is rebutted if the investment property is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale.
The amendments are not expected to significantly impact the Group.
AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements, AASB 11: Joint Arrangements, AASB 12: Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, AASB 127: Separate Financial Statements [August 2011], AASB 128: Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures [August 2011] and AASB 2011-7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
AASB 10 replaces parts of AASB 127 [March 2008, as amended] and Interpretation 112: Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. AASB 10 provides a revised definition of control and additional application guidance so that a single control model will apply to all investees.
AASB 11 replaces AASB 131: Interests in Joint Ventures (July 2004, as amended). AASB 11 requires joint arrangements to be classified as either ‘joint operations’ (where the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities) or ‘joint ventures’ (where the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement). Joint ventures are required to adopt the equity method of accounting (proportionate consolidation is no longer allowed).
AASB 12 contains the disclosure requirements applicable to entities that hold an interest in a subsidiary, joint venture, joint operation or associate. AASB 12 also introduces the concept of a ‘structured entity’, replacing the ‘special purpose entity’ concept currently used in Interpretation 112, and requires specific disclosures in respect of any investments in unconsolidated structured entities.
To facilitate the application of AASBs 10, 11 and 12, revised versions of AASB 127 and AASB 128 have also been issued.
These Standards are not expected to significantly impact the Group’s financial statements.
AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement and AASB 2011-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 13 (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
AASB 13 defines fair value, sets out in a single Standard a framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurement.
AASB 13 requires:
-
inputs to all fair value measurements to be categorised in accordance with a fair value hierarchy; and
-
enhanced disclosures regarding all assets and liabilities (including, but not limited to, financial assets and financial liabilities) measured at fair value.
These Standards are expected to result in more detailed fair value disclosures, but are not expected to significantly impact the amounts recognised in the Group’s financial statements.

AASB 2011-4: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards to Remove Individual Key Management Personnel Disclosure Requirements (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013)
This Standard makes amendments to AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures to remove the individual key management personnel disclosure requirements (including paragraphs Aus29.1 to Aus29.9.3). These amendments serve a number of purposes, including furthering trans-Tasman convergence, removing differences from IFRSs, and avoiding any potential confusion with the equivalent Corporations Act 2001 disclosure requirements.
This Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Group’s financial report as a whole because:
-
some of the disclosures removed from AASB 124 will continue to be required under section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001, which is applicable to the Group; and
-
AASB 2011-4 does not affect the related party disclosure requirements in AASB 124 applicable to all reporting entities, and some of these requirements require similar disclosures to those removed by AASB 2011-4.
-
AASB 2011-9: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 July 2012).
The main change arising from this Standard is the requirement for entities to group items presented in other comprehensive income (OCI) on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to profit or loss subsequently. This Standard affects presentation only and is therefore not expected to significantly impact the Group’s financial statements.
AASB 119: Employee Benefits [September 2011] and AASB 2011-10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 119 (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013)
These Standards introduce a number of changes to accounting and presentation of defined benefit plans. The Group does not have any defined benefit plans and so is not impacted by the amendment.
AASB 119 [September 2011] also includes changes to:
(a) require only those benefits that are expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service to be classified as short-term employee benefits. All other employee benefits are to be classified as either other long-term employee benefits, post-employment benefits or termination benefits , as appropriate; and
(b) the accounting for termination benefits that require an entity to recognise an obligation for such benefits at the earlier of:
-
(i) for an offer that may be withdrawn – when the employee accepts;
-
(ii) for an offer that cannot be withdrawn – when the offer is communicated to affected employees; and

The decrease in the weighted average effective tax rate for the current period tax charge is a result of the following:
-
An adjustment to prior year where foreign exchange gains were treated as realised rather than unrealised. Realised gains are a taxable item for income taxes purposes whereas unrealised are a nontaxable item. The allowable deduction was recognised in current period tax charge.
-
Utilisation of prior year tax losses.

|---|---|
| 6,967 6,824 84 28 |
|
| 7,051 6,852 |
- (a) Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and generally on 30 day terms. The average credit period on rendering of services and sale of goods is 65 days (2011: 66 days). Management has objective evidence that certain receivable amounts arising from the past sale of goods and rendering of services are impaired and therefore a provision for impairment has been recognised.
Before accepting new customers, the Group assesses the creditworthiness of the potential client using information provided by independent rating agencies, publicly available information and its own trading record. The Group’s client portfolio consists of leading blue chip companies, Fortune Global 500 companies and Government departments within Australia. The profile of the trade receivable balance as at the reporting date is as follows:
Of the trade receivable balance at the end of the reporting period, $727,921 (2011: $448,281) is due from a large Australian telecommunications company totalling 10.3% (2011: 6.5%) of the trade receivables balance. There is also $705,938 (2011: $854,281) and $586,381 (2011: $861,677) from two leading banking institutions in Australia, $611,690 (2011: $77,280) from an Australian government department, $407,118 (2011: $888,622) from a major banking group in France and $397,340 ($120,878) from a large financial organisation in North America.
There are no other customers who represent more than 5% of the total balance of trade receivables.
Also of the trade receivables balance at the end of the reporting period a concentration of $5,042,677 (71%) relates to Australia. The remaining amounts are not significant.
Trade receivables that are past due but not impaired
Included in the trade receivable balance are debtors with a carrying amount of $1,003,304 (2011: $1,071,000) in the group which are past due at the end of the reporting period but have not been provided for as there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the amounts are still considered recoverable. Of the overdue balance, $879,108 (2011: $1,071,000) relates to clients with whom the Group has traded with for more than one year with no history of delinquency. The nature of the clients, namely a mix of large financial institutions, telecommunications companies and government give further confidence that these past due balances are not impaired. The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances. The ageing analysis of these trade receivables is:
| 1-3 months 3-6 months Over 6 months Within initial trade terms |
2012 2011 $'000 $'000 689 982 245 19 69 80 5,997 5,754 |
|---|---|
| 7,000 6,835 |
The Group does not hold any financial assets with terms that have been renegotiated, but which would otherwise be past due or impaired.

8. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES (continued)
(b) Provision for impairment of current trade receivables
Current trade and other receivables are non-interest bearing and generally on 30 day terms. A provision for impairment is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual trade or term receivable is impaired. These amounts have been included in the other expenses item.
Movement in the provision for impairment of receivables is as follows:
| Balance at beginning of year Charge for the year Amounts written off as uncollectible Balance at end of year Fair values Trade receivables Other receivables |
2012 2011 $'000 $'000 (11) - (22) - - (11) |
|---|---|
| (33) (11) |
|
| 2012 2011 $'000 $'000 6,967 6,824 84 28 |
The Group determines fair values based on future cash flows discounted at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments. However, the carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables are assumed to approximate fair value, due to their short term nature.

Unbilled revenue represents amounts relating to revenue recognised in accordance with the accounting policies detailed in Note 1(c) that had not been invoiced to the customer as at the end of the reporting period. Included in the Group’s work in progress balance is $272,622 (2011: $130,589) relating to revenue that was recognised more than 12 months prior to the end of the reporting period. No provision for impairment has been recognised in relation to these amounts as management still consider these amounts to be recoverable.
Of the work in progress balance at the year end, $1,299,718 related to a single customer, a large financial services group in the Nordic region. Management has assessed the creditworthiness of the financial institution as high.

14. INTANGIBLE ASSETS (continued)
Intangible assets other than goodwill and intellectual property have finite useful lives. The current amortisation charges for intangible assets are included under depreciation and amortisation expense per the statement of comprehensive income. Goodwill and intellectual property have indefinite useful lives. These have been assessed as having indefinite useful lives because these intangible assets arose on the acquisition of businesses purchased as going concerns. These businesses continue to be operated within the CPT Global Group and there are no plans to cease any part of these operations.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units, based on the Group’s reporting segment.
| Australian Segment Europe Segment |
2012 2011 $'000 $'000 6,557 6,557 629 629 |
|---|---|
| 7,186 7,186 |
The recoverable amount of the cash-generating units is determined based on value-in-use calculations. Valuein-use is calculated based on the present value of the projected cash flows from that cash-generating unit over 5 years; periods beyond 5 years have been extrapolated using the terminal value growth rate of 4.7%.
Key Assumptions
The following key assumptions were used in determining the recoverable amount of goodwill:
| Discount | rate | Gross | Margin | Sales | Growth | Transfer | Pricing | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2012 | 2011 | 2012 | 2011 | 2012 | 2011 | 2012 | 2011 | |
| Australian Segment | 16.5% | 16.5% | 27.0% | 28.5% | 5.6% | 5.0% | 32% | 37% |
Management has based the value-in-use calculations on budgets and estimates for the CGU. The value-in-use is most sensitive to the following assumptions:
-
Discount rate;
-
Gross profit margins
-
Sales growth rates; and
-
Transfer Pricing
Discount rate – discount rate is a post tax rate and reflects the risks associated with a particular segment.
Gross profit margins – values assigned reflect past experience and recognition of the existing tightening market conditions.
Sales growth rates – reflects management’s expectations of revenue growth in the context of the Group’s Australian market strategy.
Transfer Pricing – represents expected costs incurred by CPT Global Australia in respect to supporting the operations of foreign subsidiaries and recovery of them based on their performance. Delays in the closing of contracts within the International regions have led to the underperformance of foreign subsidiaries at the date of this report. Notwithstanding this, the directors still believe the estimated future cash flow required to support the value of goodwill will be achieved within the financial year.

14. INTANGIBLE ASSETS (continued)
Sensitivity to changes in assumptions
The recoverable amount of goodwill is sensitive to reasonable possible changes in some of the key assumptions. Sensitivity analysis has been performed by applying the following possible changes in key assumptions:
-
Growth rate – 2% decrease in gross margins achieved
-
Discount rate – 2% increase in discount rate
-
Transfer Pricing – 8% reduction in recoverability of expenses
The maximum possible effect of these changes would result in impairment in the value of goodwill of up to $1.53 million as at 30 June 2012.

16. BORROWINGS (Continued)
The financing facilities above are secured by a first registered company charge (mortgage debenture) over the carrying value of the total assets of the parent entity, which totalled $25,052,000 at the end of the reporting period. Interest is charged at 1.0% above the ANZ reference rate.
Covenants imposed by the bank require amongst other things, a profit before tax and interest of $1,000,000 to be earned by the economic entity for the financial year. As a result of contract deferrals in Europe, a profit before interest and tax of $598,000 was achieved. This covenant breach has been reported to CPT’s bank. All other covenants were satisfied.
The economic entity has recently secured financing arrangements with another financial institution which is free from such a covenant. This facility will be implemented effective from December 2012.

(d) Capital Management
Management controls the capital of the group in order to maintain an appropriate debt to equity ratio, provide shareholders with adequate returns and ensure that the group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. The Group does not currently have significant debt capital employed in the business as indicated in the following table. Management effectively manages the group’s capital by assessing the group’s financial risks and externally imposed capital requirements and adjusts its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders, share buy-backs and share issues. There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the group since the prior year. This strategy is to ensure that the group’s gearing ratio remains at an appropriate level between 0% and 50%.
The gearing ratios for the year ended 30 June 2012 and 30 June 2011 are as follows:
| Total borrowings Less cash and cash equivalents Net debt Total equity Total capital employed Gearing ratio |

(a) | 28/11/08 | 29/11/11 | $1 in total | 200,000 | - | 200,000 | - |
(a) On 28 November 2008, at the Company’s Annual General Meeting, 200,000 performance shares were granted to executive directors to take up ordinary shares at an exercise price of $1 in total. The fair value of these performance shares at the date of grant was $49,000. The fair value has been calculated using a Hull-White trinomial option pricing model using the following inputs:
| Weighted average exercise price | nil |
|---|---|
| Maximum life of option | 3 years |
| Underlying share price | $0.33 |
| Expected share price volatility | 36% |
| Risk free interest rate | 6.5% |
| Dividend yield | 10% |
The issue of these performance shares in one tranche is contingent upon the Company’s share price exceeding certain levels for specified periods between 30 November 2010 and 29 November 2011, as follows:
No. of shares Conditions which must be satisfied
to be issued
200,000 The highest quoted (buy) price of CPT Global shares reaching or exceeding $1.40 for 5 consecutive business days during the period 30 November 2010 to 29 November 2011 (both dates inclusive)
As at reporting date, the share price criteria for the issuance of these performance shares expired due to the share price never reaching or exceeding $1.40 during the specified periods. For the year ended 30 June 2012, nil (2011: $20,230) has been expensed in relation to these share options.
Historic volatility has been used as a basis for determining expected share price volatility as it is assumed that this is indicative of future trends.

The reportable segments disclosed are based on a geographical basis.
Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics and are also similar with respect to the following:
-
services provided by the segment;
-
the type of customer for the services provided; and
-
external regulatory requirements
Types of Services by Segment
Below outlines the major lines of services provided to customers for each reportable segment:

30. OPERATING SEGMENTS (Continued)
Inter-segment transactions
Segment revenues, expenses and results exclude transfers between segments. The prices charged on intersegment transactions are the same as those charged for similar services to parties outside of the Group on an arm’s length basis. These transfers are eliminated on consolidation.
Segment Assets
Segment assets reported are based on the internal reports reviewed by the Board of Directors. These include trade debtors and unbilled revenue balances.
Unallocated items
The Board of Directors review segment performance to only the gross profit level. All other items of revenue and expenses are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of the core operations of any segment. Liabilities are not reported by segment for internal reporting purposes for the Board of Directors and therefore have been treated as unallocated items.

31. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial Risk Management
The group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, short-term investments, accounts receivable and payable.
The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for group operations.
Derivatives may be used by the Group for hedging purposes. Such instruments include forward exchange and currency option contracts. The Group does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments.
The board of directors is responsible for monitoring and managing financial risk exposures of the Group. The board reviews the effectiveness of internal controls relating to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. The overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Group in meeting its financial targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance in regards to financial and currency rate risk.
(i) Financial Risks
The main risks the group is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
Interest rate risk
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value and cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial assets and financial liabilities, is as follows:

6,937 4,968 |
Interest rate risk arises on cash and cash equivalents and bank overdrafts. Interest rate risk is managed by monitoring and reviewing cash flow forecasts and the trade receivables balance of the Group.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for cash and cash equivalents as this is the only financial instrument materially exposed to floating interest rates. The analysis is based on actual monthly overdraft balances throughout the year, as reported to management, with the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period. A 120 basis point increase or decrease has been used and represents management’s assessment of the possible changes in interest rates. At the reporting date, if interest rates had been 120 basis points higher or lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s profit before income tax would increase by $3,000 and decrease by $3,000 (2011: increase by $10,000 and decrease by $10,000).
Foreign currency risk
The group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies arising from the sale and purchase of goods and services in currencies other than the group’s functional currency, and the translation of foreign subsidiary results on consolidation. The group may from time to time enter into forward exchange contracts to buy and sell specified amounts of foreign currencies in the future at stipulated exchange rates within approved policy parameters. The objective in entering the forward exchange contracts is to protect the economic entity against unfavourable exchange rate movements for both the contracted and anticipated future sales and purchases undertaken in foreign currencies.
The carrying amount of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the reporting period is as follows:

The amounts disclosed above in relation to Australian dollars relate to intercompany payables in the US subsidiary whose functional currency is not Australian dollars.
Foreign currency sensitivity analysis
The Group is mainly exposed to US dollars, Euros and Sterling.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 10% increase and decrease in the Australian dollar against the relevant foreign currencies. 10% is the sensitivity rate used as it represents management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. The sensitivity analysis includes external assets and liabilities as well as loans, receivables and payables balances with foreign subsidiaries where the denomination of the balance is in a currency other than the functional currency of the lender or borrower. A positive number indicates an increase in profit or loss and other equity where the Australian dollar strengthens against the respective currency. For a weakening of the Australian dollar against the respective currency there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit and other equity, and the balances below would be negative.
| Economic Entity |
USD | Impact | Sterling | Impact | Euro | Impact | CAD | Impact |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2012 | 2011 | 2012 | 2011 | 2012 | 2011 | 2012 | 2011 | |

| Other equity | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - |
The above impacts are mainly attributable to the exposure of intercompany payables, receivables and loan balances at the end of the reporting period.
Forward foreign exchange contracts
Forward exchange contracts are used to hedge cash flow risk associated with future transactions. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of forward contracts are recognised directly in the statement of comprehensive income. Outstanding forward contracts at 30 June 2012 were nil (2011: nil), gains and losses pertaining to these forward contracts have been recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk the group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
The group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate unutilised borrowing facilities are maintained. Included in Note 16 is a listing of additional undrawn facilities that the Group has at its disposal to further reduce liquidity risk. The bank overdraft and unused finance lease facilities may be drawn at any time and may be terminated by the bank without notice. All facilities are subject to annual review.
The table below analyses the Group’s financial liabilities. All such liabilities are classified as current and therefore have contractual maturity within 12 months from the reporting date.
| Lease liability Trade payables Sundry payables and accrued expenses |
2012 2011 $’000 $’000 16 51 4,792 3,426 1,657 1,173 |
|---|---|
| 6,465 4,650 |
For details of expenditure commitments and maturity profile of the lease liability, refer to Note 22. The trade and sundry payables listed above are due for payment within 3 months.
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group and essentially arises from holdings of cash and deposits, trade receivables and loans receivable as well as from the parent’s potential obligations under the indemnity guarantee provided to banks. The risk is largely managed through a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties. Periodic assessments of debtor balances are undertaken and provisions for impairment are recognised where appropriate.
The maximum credit risk exposure is the carrying value of cash and deposits, trade receivables and loan receivables as disclosed in notes 7 and 8.

Recognised financial instruments
Cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payables & short-term borrowings: The carrying amount approximates fair value because of their short-term to maturity/ realisation.
Non-current investments/securities: For financial instruments traded in organised financial markets, fair value is the current quoted market bid price for an asset or offer price for a liability, adjusted for transaction costs necessary to realise the asset or settle the liability. For investments where there is no quoted market price, a reasonable estimate of the fair value is determined by reference to the current market value of another instrument which is substantially the same or is calculated based on the expected cash flows or the underlying net asset base of the investment/security. The net fair value of the unlisted options is determined to be the difference between the market price and the exercise price of the underlying shares.
Forward exchange contracts: The fair values of forward exchange contracts is determined as the recognised gain or loss at reporting date calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF CPT GLOBAL LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES
Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of CPT Global Limited which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2012, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the period then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements , that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards .
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .

Opinion
In our opinion:
-
a) the financial report of CPT Global Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
i) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2012 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 ; and
-
b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.
Significant Uncertainty Regarding Accounting Estimate
Without qualification to the opinion expressed above, we draw your attention to Note 14 in the financial report. The impairment analysis performed on the goodwill is based on cash flow projections that use a range of assumptions and accounting estimates whose outcome depends on future events. Given the current uncertainty in achieving the cash flows, it is extremely difficult to confirm forecast future cash flows with the degree of confidence required to be able to state that goodwill is fully recoverable at the amount disclosed in the financial report. The recoverable amount of the goodwill is sensitive to reasonable possible changes in these key assumptions.
Notwithstanding the directors’ belief that the goodwill is fully recoverable, this matter indicates the existence of a material uncertainty should key assumptions change which may cast doubt on the carrying value of the goodwill and whether it is impaired.
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 17 to 20 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2012. The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 . Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
Auditor’s Opinion
In our opinion the remuneration report of CPT Global Limited for the year ended 30 June 2012 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 .
