Chairman’s Statement

In our twenty-fifth year as a listed public company, we have reported a profit after tax of $7,332,490, up 18.2% on the previous year, on revenue of $96,751,645 which was up 33.5%. Earnings per share, on the share capital adjusted for the June 2012 one for five share issue, was 12.4 cents.

Shareholders were paid an interim dividend of 3 cents per share, and will be paid a final dividend of 3.5 cents on the recently expanded capital. This translates to a 20% increase in dividend payment over the previous year. Shareholders are also entering the new financial year with a 20% increase in the number of shares held.

Aside from the acquisition of Action Couriers, the 2011-2012 financial year was a year of organic growth for the Company. The increased revenue was mainly minerals and energy related, servicing key Australian and overseas contractors to large projects including Gorgon in the North-West of Western Australia, and the momentum of that growth has carried forward into the new financial year. We plan to leverage off those same contractors in the long term, to provide logistical support services on other projects as they are developed throughout Western Australia. The new Hazelmere facility is targeted for Stage 1 completion by Christmas and occupation of the strategic site early next year will facilitate further growth.

Finally, and as always, on behalf of the board I would like to thank all members of management, staff and sub-contractors for their dedication, enthusiasm, commitment and efforts over the past year.

Notes to the Financial Statements

REPORTING ENTITY

CTI Logistics Limited (the “Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia. The address of the Company’s registered office is 1 Drummond Place, West Perth, Western Australia. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2012 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “group” and individually as “group entities”). The group primarily is involved in the provision of logistics and transport services, rental of property, manufacturing of plastic products and provision of security services.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial report are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial report is for the consolidated entity consisting of CTI Logistics Limited and its subsidiaries.

(a) BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL REPORT

This general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

Certain comparative amounts have been re-classified to conform with current year presentation.

Compliance with IFRS

The consolidated financial statements of the CTI Logistics Limited group also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the board of directors on 30 August 2012.

Historical cost convention

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for available-for-sale financial assets which are measured at fair value.

Functional and presentation currency

All group entities are based in Australia. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the group’s functional and presentation currency.

  • (b) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

  • (i) Subsidiaries

The financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all entities controlled by CTI Logistics Limited (“Company”) as at 30 June 2012 and the results of all subsidiaries for the period the Company controlled them during the year then ended. CTI Logistics Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the “group”.

Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose entities) over which the group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the group controls another entity.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group. They are de-consolidated from the date control ceases.

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the group (refer to note 1(h)).

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions within the group are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(c) SEGMENT REPORTING

Determination and presentation of operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the group’s other components. All operating segments’ operating results are reviewed regularly by the group’s executive chairman (“CEO”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

Segment results that are reported to the CEO include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly parent company and items that cannot be allocated to specific segments in respect of revenue, profit, assets and liabilities.

(d) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are restated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the year.

(e) REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances and duties and taxes paid. Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows:

(i) Logistics and transport

A sale is recorded when the goods or services have been delivered to or collected by a customer in accordance with the arrangements made with the group.

  • (ii) Security, manufacturing and other

A sale is recorded when goods have been despatched to a customer pursuant to a sales order and the associated risks of ownership have transferred to the customer. A sale is recorded for services when the service has been performed.

(iii) Interest income

Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest method.

(iv) Dividends

Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established.

  • (v) Other revenue

Revenue from outside the operating activities includes rent. This revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis in accordance with note 1(g).

(f) INCOME TAX

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the notional income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(f) INCOME TAX (continued)

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets 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.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Tax consolidation

CTI Logistics Limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation. As a consequence, these entities are taxed as a single entity and the deferred tax assets and liabilities of these entities are set off in the

Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the group.

Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly-owned tax consolidated entities.

(g) LEASES

Leases of property, plant and equipment where the group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s inception at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges are included in other long term payables. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit and loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term.

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

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

(h) BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations entities regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the group. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement and the fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets.

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the group’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

(i) IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS

Non-derivative financial assets

The group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered an indicator that the assets are impaired.

  • (i) Assets carried at amortised cost

For loans and receivables, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement. If a loan or heldto-maturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the reversal of the previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement.

Impairment testing of trade receivables is described in note 1(k).

  • (ii) Assets classified as available-for-sale

  • Impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets are recognised by reclassifying the losses accumulated in the fair value reserve in equity, to profit or loss. The cumulative loss that is reclassified from equity to profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal repayment and amortisation, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in profit or loss. Changes in impairment provisions attributable to application of the effective interest method are reflected as a component of interest income. Any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired available-forsale equity security is recognised in other comprehensive income.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(i) IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS (continued)

Non-financial assets

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

Value-in-use calculations are described in note 16.

(j) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

(k) TRADE RECEIVABLES

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. They are presented as current assets unless collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the reporting date.

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 (more than 60 days overdue) 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 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 profit or loss.

(l) INVENTORIES

Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriated proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on the basis of weighted average costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(m) INVESTMENTS AND OTHER FINANCIAL ASSETS

Classification

The group classifies its investments in the following categories: loans and receivables, and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at each reporting date.

(i) Loans and receivables

  • Loans and receivables are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date

  • (ii) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Recognition and derecognition

Purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date – the date on which the group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit and loss as gains and losses from investment securities.

Measurement

At initial recognition, the group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.

Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are presented in profit or loss within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss as part of revenue from continuing operations when the group’s right to receive payments is established. Interest income from these financial assets is included in the net gains/(losses).

Changes in the fair value of monetary securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Impairment

Impairment testing of financial assets is described in note 1(i).

page 18

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(n) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment other than freehold land is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

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 charged to profit and loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Buildings 25-40 years Plant and equipment 5-15 years Motor vehicles 5-10 years Furniture and fittings 3- 8 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

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 (note 1(i)).

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts. These are included in profit or loss under other income and other expenses.

(o) INVESTMENT PROPERTY

Investment property, principally comprising freehold land and buildings, is held for long-term rental yields and is not occupied by the group. Investment property other than freehold land is held at historical cost less depreciation. Investment property includes properties that are under construction for future use as investment property and is carried at historical cost. Investment buildings are depreciated using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives of 10 to 40 years.

(p) INTANGIBLE ASSETS

  • (i) Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the group’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is 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.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cashgenerating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose, identified according to operating segments (note 4).

(ii) Security Lines

Security lines have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

(iii) Software

Costs incurred in acquiring software and licences that will contribute to future period financial benefits through revenue generation and/or cost reduction are capitalised to software.

(iv) Trade names

Trade names have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

(v) Customer relationships

Customer relationships acquired as part of a business combination are recognised separately from goodwill. The customer relationships are carried at their fair value at the date of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

page 19

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(p) INTANGIBLE ASSETS (continued)

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Amortisation

Amortisation is calculated over the cost of the asset less its residual value.

Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

Security lines 5-7 years
Software 2.5-4 years
Trade names 8 years
Customer relationships 5 years

Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.

  • (q) TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the group prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are paid based on the terms of trade which are usually 30 to 60 days from the date of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months from the reporting date. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

(r) BORROWINGS

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

The group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

(s) BORROWING COSTS

Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed.

(t) PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when the group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(u) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

  • (i) Short-term obligations

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liability for annual leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits. All other short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables.

  • (ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations

The liability for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service 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. 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 the defined contribution fund are recognised as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.

  • (iv) Bonus

The group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses where contractually obliged or when past events have created a constructive obligation.

  • (v) Share-based payment transactions

An Employee Share Plan (“ESP”) allows certain group employees to acquire shares of the Company. The grant date fair value of the shares granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the shares. The fair value of the shares granted is measured using a Black-Scholes pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the shares were granted. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of shares that vest. Employees have been granted a limited recourse 10 year interest-free loan in which to acquire the shares. The loan has not been recognised as the Company only has recourse to the value of the shares.

(v) CONTRIBUTED EQUITY

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

(w) DIVIDENDS

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, determined or publicly recommended by the directors on or before the end of the year but not distributed at balance date.

(x) EARNINGS PER SHARE

  • (i) Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing profit for the year by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

  • (ii) Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

page 21

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

  • (y) GOODS AND SERVICES TAX (GST)

  • Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amounts of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the balance sheet.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flow.

(z) PARENT ENTITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The financial information for the parent entity, CTI Logistics Limited, disclosed in note 33 has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below.

  • (i) Investments in subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the financial statements of CTI Logistics Limited.

(ii) Tax consolidation legislation

CTI Logistics Limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation.

The head entity, CTI Logistics Limited, and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a stand alone taxpayer in its own right.

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, CTI Logistics Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group.

The entities have also entered into tax sharing and funding agreements. Under the terms of these agreements, the controlled entities will reimburse the Company for any current tax payable by the Company arising in respect of their activities and the Company will reimburse the controlled entities for any tax refund due to the Company arising in respect of their activities. The reimbursements are payable by the Company and will limit the joint and several liability of the controlled entities in the case of default by the Company.

Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the group.

Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly-owned tax consolidated entities.

  • (iii) Financial guarantees

Where the parent entity has provided financial guarantees in relation to loans and payables of subsidiaries for no compensation, the fair values of these guarantees is not recognised as contributions or as part of the cost of the investment.

(aa) NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS

A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2011, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements None of these is expected to have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements of the group, except AASB 9 Financial Instruments , which becomes mandatory for the group’s 2014 consolidated financial statements and could change the classification and measurement of financial assets. The group does not plan to adopt this standard early and the extent of the impact has not been determined.

page 22

Notes to the Financial Statements

2. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates, assumptions and judgements may be used to assess the measurement of certain items of income and expense, and assets and liabilities. Such estimates, assumptions and judgements are regularly evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Where estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future, the resulting accounting estimates may not equal the related actual outcome. The estimates and assumptions which give rise to a risk of causing an adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

Estimated impairment of goodwill

The group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1(i). The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations as described in note 16.

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Overview

The group has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:

  • (i) Credit risk

  • (ii) Liquidity risk

(iii) Market risk

This note presents information about the group’s exposure to each of the above risks, the group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the group’s management of capital.

Risk management framework

The board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. Risk management is carried out by the director responsible for finance under the guidance of the board of directors. The board of directors considers principles for overall risk management, as well as determining policies covering specific areas, such as mitigating interest rate and credit risks and investing excess liquidity.

The group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the group. These policies are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the group’s activities.

(a) Market risk

  • (i) Foreign exchange risk

The group operates wholly in Australia and is not exposed to material foreign exchange risk arising from currency exposure.

  • (ii) Price risk

The group is exposed to equity securities price risk. This arises from investments held by the group and classified on the balance sheet as available-for-sale.

The price risk for listed and unlisted securities is immaterial in terms of the possible impact on profit or loss or total equity. It has therefore not been included in a sensitivity analysis.

The group is not exposed to commodity price risk.

(iii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

The group’s interest rate risk arises from borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the group to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the group to fair value interest rate risk. At the year end, 0.01% (2011 – 0.4%) of borrowings were at fixed rates.

An analysis by maturities is provided in (c) below.

The group manages interest rate risk by assessing the appropriateness of fixed or floating rate debt when funding is required.

Group sensitivity

The group’s main interest rate risk arises from loans and cash and cash equivalents. At 30 June 2012, if the interest rates had changed by -/+ 100 basis points from the year-end rates with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year would have been higher/lower by $ 158,200 (2011 – change of 100bps: $122,567 higher/lower) for loans and higher/lower by $9,852 (2011 – change of 100bps: $4,858 higher/lower) for cash and cash equivalents, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense from borrowings and higher/lower interest income from cash and cash equivalents.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk is managed on a group basis. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to wholesale and retail customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions.

The group has policies in place to ensure that sales of products and services are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. The group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. Cash transactions are limited to high credit quality financial institutions. The group has policies that limit the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution.

There is no independent rating of individual customers. Financial institutions have credit ratings of AA* and higher at 30 June 2012. Risk control assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Customers that are graded as “high risk” are placed on a restricted customer list and monitored on a weekly basis. Receivables balances are monitored on an ongoing basis.

*Standard and Poor credit rating

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying amount of the financial assets as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents

(b) Credit risk (continued)

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and terms of trade are 30 days from month end. At 30 June 2012, 5.74 % (2011 – 4.21%) of trade receivables of the group exceed 30 days but are not considered impaired.

Other receivables are non-interest bearing and have repayment terms exceeding 30 days but are not considered impaired.

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

(c) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. The group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of current financial assets and liabilities. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the board of directors aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping committed credit lines available with a variety of counterparties. Surplus funds are generally only invested in instruments that are tradeable in highly liquid markets.

Financing arrangements

The group had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the reporting date:

Floating rate
– Expiring within one year (bill facility)
– Expiring beyond one year (bill facility)

The bank overdraft facilities may be drawn at any time and are subject to annual review. The bill acceptance facilities have defined maturity dates. Subject to the continuance of satisfactory credit ratings, the bank loan facilities may be drawn at any time.

(d) Fair value estimation

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.

The following tables present the group’s assets measured and recognised at fair value at 30 June 2012.

Capital risk management

The group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

Consistently with others in the industry, the group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including ‘borrowings’ and ‘trade and other payables’ as shown in the balance sheet) less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the balance sheet plus net debt.

During 2012, the group’s gearing ratio increased due to an acquisition and commencement of a building project . The gearing ratios at 30 June 2012 and 30 June 2011 were as follows:

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

  • (a) Description of segments

Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the CEO.

The group’s CEO considers the business from a product and services perspective and has identified two reportable segments: logistics and transport and property segments.

The reportable segments operate solely in Australia and are involved in the following operations:

  • �� ������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������ and distribution and document storage services.

  • �� ������������������������������������������������������������

“Other” segments include the manufacturing of plastic products and provision of security services. Neither of these segments meets any of the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments.

The group does not have a single external customer which represents greater than 10% of the entity’s revenue.

The group’s CEO assesses the performance of the operating segments based on segment profit before income tax, as included in internal management reports. Segment profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries.

  • (b) Accounting policies

Segment information is prepared in conformity with the accounting policies of the entity as disclosed in note 1(c) and accounting standard AASB 8 Operating Segments.

Inter-segment transfers

Segment revenues, expenses and results include transfers between segments. Such transfers are priced on an arm’s length basis and are eliminated on consolidation.

Segment assets and liabilities

Segment assets are allocated based on the operations of the segment and the physical location of the asset. Segment liabilities are allocated based on the operations of the segment.

Unallocated amounts

Unallocated amounts are made up of the parent company and amounts that cannot be allocated to specific segments in respect of revenue, profit, assets and liabilities.

(a) Valuations

Freehold land and buildings were valued by the directors at 30 June 2012 at $53,088,219 (2011 – directors’ valuation $49,737,297). The basis of valuation of land and buildings is fair value being the amounts for which the properties could be exchanged between willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, based on current prices in an active market for similar properties in the same location and condition.

(b) Non-current assets pledged as security Refer to note 19(b) for information on non-current assets pledged as security.

Impairment tests for goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the group’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill is allocated to the group’s cash-generating units (CGUs) identified according to business segment.

The segment-level summary of goodwill allocation is presented below.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculations which are based on budgets. These calculations use cash flow projections based on current sustainable earnings and financial budgets approved by management. Cash flows indicate that the carrying amounts are substantially recoverable and that there is no impairment.

Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations

Growth rate of 3.5% (2011-3.5%) based on the inflation rate is used to extrapolate cash flows beyond budget periods and post tax discount rate of 10.5% (2011-10.5%), (equivalent pre-tax rate 15% (2011 – 15%)), is used to discount the forecast future attributable post-tax cash flows when performing the value-in-use calculations. The same post-tax and pre-tax discount rates were applied in 2011 and 2012.

Corporate Governance Statement

The Australian Securities Exchange Corporate Governance Council has published a number of principles and best practice recommendations relating to the direction and management of companies. These guidelines form a corporate governance framework intended to provide a practical guide for listed companies and their investors.

The Company’s directors are fully cognisant of the Corporate Governance Principles and Best Practice Recommendations published by the ASX Corporate Governance Council (“CGC”) and have adopted those recommendations where they are appropriate to the Company’s circumstances.

Under the Australian Securities Exchange Listing Rules companies are required to provide a statement disclosing the extent to which they have followed all the recommendations and identify the recommendations that have not been followed and give reasons for not following them.

Role of the Board

As mentioned in the Directors’ Report, due to the size and structure of the group and the nature of its operations, the three executive directors have a close involvement with the management of the businesses. Consequently, a Board Charter has not been formally adopted. The formal adoption of a Board Charter will be considered again in the current year.

The board’s primary objective is to oversee the group’s business activities and management for the benefit of all stakeholders by:

  • setting objectives, goals and strategic direction with management with a view to maximising shareholder value;

  • overseeing the financial position and monitoring the business and financial affairs of the Company;

  • establishing corporate governance, ethical, environmental and health and safety standards;

  • ensuring significant business risks are identified and appropriately managed;

  • monitoring management’s performance and implementation of strategy;

  • ensuring appropriate resources are available; and

  • ensuring the composition of the board is appropriate, selecting directors for appointment to the board and reviewing the performance of the board and the contribution of individual directors.

The board has delegated responsibilities and authorities to management to enable management to conduct the Company’s day to day businesses. Matters which are not within these delegations, such as expenditure and activity approvals which exceed certain parameters, require separate board approval.

For the reasons set out below, the board is mainly composed of management personnel who have been employed by the Company for many years. Formal directors’ letters of appointment were not issued on commencement and are not considered necessary at this time.

Board Composition

The board comprises five directors including three executive directors. Due to the small size of the Company and its operations, and to avoid additional layers of management, the executive directors are necessarily involved in the day to day operations of the group businesses.

The board has, and will continue to consider the appointment of additional non-executive directors. A nomination committee is not considered necessary due to the small number of directors on the board and the relative infrequency of board changes.

Non-executive director Peter Leonhardt is an independent director.

Due to the executive directors’ individual separate operational functions, the board is able to effectively review the performance of management and exercise independent judgement.

The directors have a broad range of qualifications, experience and expertise. Details of individual directors are set out in the Directors’ Report. The role of chairman and chief executive officer is filled by the founder of the business, who is also a substantial shareholder.

page 56

Corporate Governance Statement

His knowledge, experience and understanding of the small businesses comprising the group are considered essential to perform these roles. The board considers that no value could be added by separating the roles.

Due to the difficulty in finding appropriate independent directors, the provision of a specific term for independent directors is not considered appropriate.

The board has adopted a formal policy on access to independent professional advice which provides that directors are entitled to seek such advice for the purposes of the proper performance of their duties. The advice is at the Company’s expense and is made available to all directors.

Ethical and Responsible Decision Making

The Company has clarified the ethical behaviour expected of directors and staff, as well as its attitude towards trading in the Company’s securities.

The Company’s business conduct and ethics policy, along with the policy on trading in company securities, is published on the Company’s website, www.ctilogistics.com .

Diversity

The Company recognises the importance of diversity at all levels within the Company. Diversity means those attributes which may differ from employee to employee, including gender, age, ethnicity and cultural background.

Currently the gender split of the group’s employees is 71% male:29% female. At management levels the split is 85% male:15% female. There are no female board members.

The Company’s diversity policy is still under development. Details are available on the Company’s website, www.ctilogistics.com .

Integrity in Financial Reporting

The Company has formed an audit committee consisting of independent director Peter Leonhardt (chair), non-executive director Matthew Watson and executive director Bruce Saxild. Meetings are also attended by David Mellor (chief financial officer) and the chief group accountant. The audit committee has a formal charter which has been approved by the board of directors. The charter is published on the Company’s website, www.ctilogistics.com . The size and composition of the audit committee is considered to be appropriate for the size and complexity of the Company.

The audit committee reports directly to the board of directors and has unlimited access to the Company’s external auditors and company employees. The audit committee meets regularly with the external auditors and reviews all comments and findings from them.

The external auditors meet with the board of directors at least twice a year to review their audit procedures and findings. It is the policy of the external auditors to rotate the audit partner at 5 yearly intervals. The board is satisfied with the external auditor’s competence and independence.

In accordance with the Australian Securities Exchange Corporate Governance Council best practices guidelines, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer have written to the board giving assurances as the accuracy and integrity of the Company’s

page 57

Corporate Governance Statement

Timely and Balanced Disclosure

The board is committed to ensuring that all matters which should be disclosed to the market are disclosed in a timely and balanced manner. All matters for disclosure are vetted and authorised by the board prior to disclosure.

The Company does not have written policies for compliance with Australian Securities Exchange Listing Rules disclosure requirements, but as the three executive directors are necessarily involved in the day to day operations of the group businesses, all matters arising at board meetings, audit committee meetings and the executive directors’ meetings (a sub-committee of the board of directors) are considered and any matters that may require disclosure are vetted and authorised by the board prior to disclosure.

Rights of Shareholders

The board of directors encourages direct communication with shareholders.

Shareholders are encouraged to attend general meetings where formal and informal discussions can take place with board members, senior employees and the external auditors.

The Company’s external auditors are always invited to attend the Company’s Annual General Meeting and are available to answer shareholders’ queries at that time.

Shareholders may also communicate freely with board members at any time.

The Company’s website will continue to be developed as a medium to facilitate communication with shareholders.

Risk Recognition and Management

The board has established policies and procedures to recognise, minimise and manage all aspects of risk affecting the Company. Although in a number of cases these policies are not formally documented, they are considered appropriate for a company of this size.

The board has overseen with the management of each business unit the drawing up of a risk management plan. Management has submitted reports to the board on the areas of risk, the impacts and risk categorisation affecting the business units.

A robust system for identifying, monitoring and mitigating material risk throughout the group has been established and each business unit can access the system on-line. It is reviewed annually and updated immediately a change is identified.

The audit committee has the ability to review internal financial control procedures.

A risk and disaster management plan covering the Company’s electronic data facilities is in place and is reviewed periodically.

Whilst there is no formal internal audit function, the Company’s chief financial officer performs and delegates certain internal audit procedures on a rotational basis throughout the year.

The chairman and chief executive officer as well as the chief financial officer sign a letter of representation to the external auditors in relation to the matters contained in the annual accounts.

The Australian Securities Exchange Corporate Governance Council best practices guidelines recommend that the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer write to the board giving assurances regarding risk recognition and management, so that the board is assured of considering all relevant factors. This was not considered necessary as the chief executive officer is also the chairman of the Company’s board of directors and the chief financial officer is also a member of the Company’s board of directors.

page 58

Corporate Governance Statement

Enhanced Performance

The board evaluates the performance of key executives against a range of performance criteria.

The current composition of the board obviates a measurable review of the board’s performance and the size of the Company does not warrant an independent assessment.

Board members have access to continuing education within their spheres of operation and the board encourages directors and staff to embark on continuing professional development.

Directors have access to all information required to efficiently discharge responsibility and may request additional information from management at any time. Board meetings are rotated around the Company’s various locations and operational management are invited to attend board meetings on a regular basis to facilitate directors’ understanding of operational matters.

Remuneration

The Company has established a remuneration committee comprising Peter Leonhardt (chair) and David Watson. This committee reviews and makes recommendations on remuneration policies for the Company including, in particular, those governing the directors. Remuneration of directors is periodically benchmarked against similar small listed companies. Directors’ emoluments are set out in the remuneration report on pages 6 to 7 of this annual report.

Although the Company has an Employee Share and Option Plan the Company does not currently reward employees via equity based remuneration.

Interests of Stakeholders

The board acknowledges the legitimate interests of all stakeholders and its legal and other obligations to employees, clients and the community as a whole.

Being a relatively small company, there is not a published code of conduct but the board has recognised these obligations through its policies on such matters as ethical standards and occupational health and safety.

The board encourages all employees to conduct business in a fair and ethical manner and to report any instances where standards may be at risk.
