2. Brief Explanation of the Result

Refresh has trimmed its operating cost and distribution, administration and occupancy expenses were all down, achieving a total savings of $116k or 8% compared to the same period last year. A lot more money was put into marketing resulting in an increase by $58k or 25%. This is necessary as it focus on growth.

Our operations in Western Australia are feeling the effect of the mining slowdown with declines in both revenue and profit.

New South Wales is doing well with increased revenue and profit.

The Victoria Manager has left. Additional staff cost was incurred because of the transition. Although revenue was maintained, profit is down substantially.

Appendix 4D Half-Year Financial Report

We managed to turn around our associate company in Queensland. The former General Manager was replaced and a new manager turned the loss into a profit. The share of profit helped to contribute to our bottom line.

REFRESH GROUP LIMITED – HALF YEAR REPORT

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Your directors submit their report for the half-year ended 31 December 2016.

DIRECTORS

The names of the directors of the Company in office at the date of this report or during the half-year are:

Henry Heng Chiau Thuan Teh (Appointed 24/8/16) Michael Pixley (Appointed 24/8/16) Peter Chai (Appointed 29/11/16) Nicholas Chan (Left 24/8/16) Eddie Soong (Left 29/11/16) Roy Ong (Left 29/11/16)

REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Refresh has trimmed its operating cost and the total of distribution, administration and occupancy expenses were all down, achieving a total savings of $116k or 8% compared to the same period last year. A lot more money was put into marketing resulting in an increase by $58k or 25%. This is necessary as it focus on growth.

In Western Australia, while sales to metropolitan Perth is consistent, it is badly affected by a sharp decline caused mainly by the completion of the Gorgon project on Barrow Island and decline in sales to Newman, Port Hedland and Karratha. The mining slowdown has stabilised and any improvement would help achieve increased revenue and profit.

Our New South Wales manager is doing a good job and we could see continued growth both in revenue and profit.

Victoria maintained its revenue. Profit was down substantially because of the transition when the manager left. A new team has been put in place and with the new Manager focussing on sales, we anticipate better performance in Victoria.

We replaced the former General Manager in Queensland and the new manager turned the loss into a profit. The share of profit helped to contribute to our bottom line. A new distiller has been acquired which would help reduce transport cost, thereby further increasing profit.

REFRESH GROUP LIMITED – HALF YEAR REPORT NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The financial report of Refresh Group Limited for the half-year ended 31 December 2016 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 22 February 2017. Refresh Group Limited is a company incorporated in Australia and limited by shares which are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange.

The Group offers complete drinking water solutions. Its principal activities are the production and/or distribution of bottled water, coolers and filtration systems. It is the largest producer of distilled water in Australia. Besides for drinking, it also supplies pure water for commercial and industrial use.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The half-year financial report does not include all of the notes of the type normally included within the annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the consolidated entity as the full financial report.

The half-year financial report should be read in conjunction with the annual Financial Report of Refresh Group Limited as at 30 June 2016.

It is also recommended that the half-year financial report be considered together with any public announcements made by Refresh Group Limited and its controlled entities during the half-year ended 31 December 2016 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations arising under the Corporations Act 2001.

(a) Basis of preparation

The half-year consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirement of the Corporations Act 2001, applicable Accounting Standards, including AASB134 Interim Financial Reporting and other mandatory professional reporting requirements. The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half-year financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the company’s 2016 annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2016, except for the impact of the Standards and Interpretations described below. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.

For the purpose of preparing the half-year financial report, the half-year has been treated as a discrete reporting period.

The comparative Profit & Loss and Comprehensive income has been restated to reflect the impact of the discontinued operation.

(b) Significant accounting policies

The half-year consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the last annual financial statements for the year to 30 June 2016.

The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the Group for the purposes of preparation of these halfyear consolidated financial statements.

(c) Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards and New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods

During the current year the Group adopted all of the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards applicable to its operations which became mandatory. The adoption of these standards did not impact significantly on the recognition, measurement and disclosure of certain transactions.

The AASB has also 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 the new and amended pronouncements. The Group’s assessment is that these amendments are not expected to significantly affect the Group.

8

REFRESH GROUP LIMITED – HALF YEAR REPORT NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016

(d) Basis of consolidation

The half-year consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Refresh Group Limited and its controlled subsidiaries (the Group).

(e) Going Concern

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

The Group has $1,592k of available cash as at 31 Dec 16. Therefore, going concern is not an issue.

3. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS

No significant event occurred during the period up to 31 December 2016.

4. OPERATING SEGMENTS

Segment Information

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.

In identifying its operating segments, management follows the geographical location of the Group’s operations. Corporate costs are included under “Other”.

Types of products and services by segment

All segments provide the same type of products and services being the manufacture and sale of bottled water and filtration systems.

Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments

(c) Segment assets

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing net profit/(loss) for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders (after deducting interest on the convertible redeemable preference shares) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year (adjusted for the effects of dilutive options and dilutive convertible non-cumulative redeemable preference shares).

The following reflects the loss and share data used in the total operations basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

There have been no other transactions involving ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares since the reporting date and before the completion of these financial statements.

6. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Group performs goodwill impairment testing every half year. Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s cash generating units (CGU).

In accordance with AASB 136, “Impairment of Assets”, the Group performed its goodwill impairment test by comparing the recoverable amount of each CGU with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The recoverable amount of a CGU was determined based on value-in-use calculations. Value-in-use is calculated based on the present value of cash flow projections over a five year period including a terminal value. The growth rate assumptions of 7%, reflecting achievement of at least a long-term estimate of inflation in the region in which each CGU operates. Management prepared the value-inuse calculations with reference to historical results and forecasts for each CGU.

The discount rate for each CGU was estimated based on the Company’s weighted average cost of capital adapted for the regions in which the CGUs operate. The discount rate used was 15%.

Based on the impairment tests, impairment of intangible assets was not necessary and none has been recognised at 31 December 2016.

8. 2014 REVENUE RESERVE

Paragraph 202-45(e) of the ITAA 1997 does not prevent a company from franking a dividend paid to its shareholders that is paid out of profits recognised in the company's accounts and available for distribution, and is paid in accordance with the company's constitution and without breaching section 254T or Part 2J.1 of the Corporations Act, merely because the company has unrecouped accounting losses accumulated in prior years or has lost part of its share capital.

The Board set aside $580k from profits for year ended 30 June 2014 in a separate 2014 Revenue Reserve account. This is to enable dividends to be paid franked regardless of whether the Group makes profit or losses in subsequent years, subject to solvency tests. Dividends of $112k were paid from this account in September 2015, leaving a balance of $356k.

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

There was no related party balance at the beginning of the period and no transaction during the period.

REFRESH GROUP LIMITED – HALF YEAR REPORT

DIRECTORS’ DECLARATION

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF REFRESH GROUP LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Refresh Group Limited and its controlled entities (“the consolidated entity”) which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, 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 half-year’s end or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the consolidated entity are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410: Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2016 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of the consolidated entity, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
