Refresh Waters

Refresh Waters sales increased by 10% for the first half year. NSW registered a very strong growth of 36% because of a long COVID-19 lockdown in the previous period. Our custom labelled bottled water division continues to grow very strongly. QLD is also doing well with one of the key growth areas coming from increasing sales to Woolworths. NT did well partly contributed by Exercise Pitch Black, a joint military training exercise that resumed after a four-year hiatus because of COVID19. WA has good growth and is expected to continue to do well in the coming months because of a very hot summer. The only CGU that saw a decline in sales was VIC due to changes in its customer base.

The increasing costs of business has affected the bottom-line nationwide. We are increasing prices to offset these increases to improve profitability but this will need to be done in a structured and progressive way and may not show an immediate effect.

Refresh Plastics

Refresh Plastics sales declined. We are the new Australia and New Zealand distributor of Dolium one-way PET kegs with the first shipment delivered in January 2023. It is anticipated this will increase revenue.

The Group has not adopted any new or revised accounting standards that are not yet mandatory. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2022 and any public announcements made by the company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

3. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS

There were no significant events and transactions during the half-year ended 31 December 2022.

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, and the nature of operations. Corporate costs are included under “Other”.

Types of products and services by segment

The Group has two operating segments being: the manufacture and sale of bottled water and filtration systems; and the production and sale of plastic products.

Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments

(a) Accounting policies adopted

Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief decision maker with respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group.

(b) Intersegment transactions

There is no intersegment sale and corporate costs are not allocated. Corporate costs are classified under “Other” in the segment performance analysis.

(c) Segment assets

Segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.

(d) Segment liabilities

Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables and certain direct borrowings.

(e) Unallocated items

The following items of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they not considered part of the core operations of any segment:

  • income tax expense

  • corporate costs

  • deferred tax assets and liabilities

7. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

There are no contingent liabilities as at 31 December 2022.

8. DIVIDENDS

The directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend in respect of the half-year ended 31 December 2022

9. EVENT AFTER REPORTING DATE

A fire was discovered in the early morning of 8 February 2023 at our Melbourne factory on Olive Grove, Keysborough, Victoria. Fortunately no personnel were on site when the incident occurred and no one was injured. The cause of the fire is currently unknown and the incident is being investigated.

The premise comprises 3 buildings – Buildings 1 and 2 are used by Refresh Plastics while Building 3 is used by Refresh Waters.

The impact of the fire was contained to Building 1 which houses our Melbourne office and most of Refresh Plastics’ manufacturing.

Building 2 houses our PET blowmoulding facility and is also used as our warehouse. This was not affected by the fire and is currently in use after temporary power was installed. Building 3 houses our bottled water operations. Full operation has commenced on this building and the office moved here.

Refresh Plastics contributed 18% to our revenue in last financial year. The fire will reduce the consolidated revenue of the Group. Refresh Plastics has been operating at a loss in recent years so the consolidated bottom-line will improve.

At this stage it is unclear how we will proceed with future operations with respect to our plastics division but we are working that out with our insurers.

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

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Eneco Refresh Limited (the Company) and its controlled entities (collectively, “the Group”) , which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2022, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, condensed notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying half-year financial report of Eneco Refresh Limited does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2022 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 has been given to the directors of the Company on 28 February 2023.

Responsibility of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of Eneco Refresh Limited are responsible for the preparation of the half-year 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 half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether 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 Company’s financial position as at 31 December 2022 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 .

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.
