Notes

(#) Constant currency removes the impact of exchange rate movements to facilitate comparability of operational performance for the Group. This is done in three parts: a) by converting the current year net profit of entities in the group that have reporting currencies other than US Dollars, at the rates that were applicable to the prior comparable period (translation currency effect); b) by restating material transactions booked by the group that are impacted by exchange rate movements at the rate that would have applied to the transaction if it had occurred in the prior comparable period (transaction currency effect); and c) by adjusting for current year foreign currency gains and losses. The sum of translation currency effect, transaction currency effect and foreign currency gains and losses is the amount by which reported net profit is adjusted to calculate the operational result.

Summary NPAT

Reported net profit after tax $1,248.0m Translation currency effect (a) $ 3.0m Transaction currency effect (b) $ 22.4m Foreign Currency (gains) & losses (c) $ 18.1m Constant currency net profit after tax * $ 1,291.5m

a) Translation Currency Effect $3.0m

Average Exchange rates used for calculation in major currencies (six months to Dec 19/Dec 18) were as follows: USD/EUR (0.90/0.86); USD/CHF (0.99/0.99).

b) Transaction Currency Effect $22.4m

Transaction currency effect is calculated by reference to the applicable prior year exchange rates. The calculation takes into account the timing of sales both internally within the CSL Group (ie from a manufacturer to a distributor) and externally (ie to the final customer) and the relevant exchange rates applicable to each transaction.

c) Foreign Currency Loss $18.1m

Foreign currency gains recorded during the period.

Summary Sales Reported sales $4,709.4m Currency effect $ 67.8m Constant currency sales* $ 4,777.2m

  • Constant currency net profit after tax and constant currency sales have not been audited or reviewed in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
