LETTER FROM THE CHAIR

==> picture [196 x 181] intentionally omitted <==

Dear Investor,

Skydive the Beach Group Limited is a distinctive investment opportunity.

It is Australia’s foremost accompanied or tandem skydiving company.

It combines entrepreneurial flair, proven specialist management, a record of growth, and a close understanding of the leisure and tourism trends that will support further expansion.

The business now operated by the Company was established in 1999 in Wollongong, an attractive beach area south of Sydney, to offer a scenic skydiving experience. This combination of scenery and adventure has widespread appeal in the leisure and tourism markets, and the STB Group now operates from 11 drop zones in 4 States, delivered more than 40,000 tandem jumps in FY2014.

This capital raising will enable the Company to expand further by funding an eastern Australian acquisition that will provide the STB Group with a total of 16 drop zones around the country, delivering more than an estimated annualised 112,000 tandem jumps in FY2016.

The acquisition described more fully in this prospectus is intended to improve earnings, provide wider market balance across differing weather conditions, and is expected to reduce seasonal earnings fluctuations through drop zone locations along the whole of the relevant east coast of Australia.

The STB Group is an attractive outlet for leisure and tourism expenditure for those pursuing adrenalin adventures. The leisure industry is growing, and it is attracting affluent global and domestic customers. Leisure tourism is driving strong growth in international visitor numbers; a key market indicator for the skydive industry. Market research suggests that skydiving has a wide demographic appeal. These factors indicate a positive economic environment for the Company’s future growth.

The business now operated by the STB Group has been built over 16 years through organic growth and acquisitions; a fundamental understanding of customer expectations; and the application of sensible business principles and systems. These hallmarks will continue when the Company is a listed company.

The IPO will involve the offer of 80 million ordinary shares in the Company at an offer price of A0.25 per share to raise up to $20 million, with the ability to raise an additional $5 million in oversubscriptions. The proceeds will fund the acquisition, provide additional working capital and permit some debt reduction. The STB Group is profitable and, if the forecast is met and $20 million is raised, the Board proposes an initial dividend payable in October 2015.

This Prospectus contains detailed information about the Offer; the business of the Company and its subsidiaries; historical and forecast financial performance; and the key risks associated with an investment in the Company. I encourage you to read this document carefully and in its entirety and to consider whether you need independent financial advice before making your investment decision.

On behalf of my fellow directors, I look forward to welcoming you as a shareholder in the Company.

Yours sincerely

Acquisition Risk The Offer is aimed at raising sufficient funds for the Section 10
Company to complete its acquisition of Australia
Skydive which adds a further 5 drop zones in eastern
Australia (being 3 in north Queensland and 2 in New
South Wales) to its existing 11 drop zones in Australia.
There can be no guarantee that the Company will
be able to achieve the revenue or profits from its
business, including the Australia Skydive business,
within the currently proposed timelines, or within the
proposed budget.
Liquidity Risk Investment is only being sought for a minority Section 11
stake in the Company as Existing Shareholders will
hold between 71 - 83% of the Shares (or 66% if the
maximum number of oversubscriptions is received
and accepted by the Board). Accordingly, there is a
significant liquidity risk, particularly as those 71 - 83%
of the Shares will be escrowed for 24 months.
Dilution Risk There is future dilution risk to minority Shareholders Section 11
should the Company seek to raise further equity funds
Reputation Risk The success of the Company is dependent on it Section 10
maintaining a positive reputation. Unforeseen
issues or events which place the reputation of the
Company at risk may impact on future earnings

Competition
It is possible that other entities in Australia and
around the world may be trying to compete with
the Company. The Company cannot guarantee that
a competitor will not reduce the Company’s market
share or margins through competitive businesses
or strategies.
Section 10 & 12
Development Risk
Whilst the Company was incorporated on 19
December 2013, the businesses it acquired on 1 July
2014 from the Aggregated Historical Group to form
the Skydive the Beach Group have significant trading
history over in excess of 10 years. The prospects of
the Company must be considered in light of the risks,
expenses and difficulties frequently encountered
by companies in development and expansion of an
existing business.
There are a number of risks facing the Company in the
execution of its business strategy. While the Directors
are of the view that there are plans in place to ensure
these risks are mitigated, these factors may still
impact upon investor returns.
Section 7, 8 & 10
Reliance on Board
Members and
Key Management
The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day
operations and the strategic management of the
Company depends substantially on its Board of
Directors, executive management and key personnel.
There can be no assurance given that there will be
no detrimental impact on the Company if one or
more of these personnel cease their employment or
engagement with the Company.
While every effort is made to retain key personnel,
and to recruit new personnel as the need arises, the
loss of one or more key personnel may adversely
affect the Company’s development plans, earnings or
growth prospects.
Section 9 & 10
Drop Zone Leases
The STB Group does not own any real estate and
leases all of its drop zone sites, with 3 of the STB
Group’s 11 existing drop zone sites being leased from
companies associated with Mr Anthony Boucaut,
an executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of
the Company.
There is a risk that the Company’s operations and
financial performance may be adversely affected in
the event that any drop zone leases were not renewed
in the future.
Section 12 and 13
Funding
The ability of the Company to effectively implement
and expand its business plan over time may depend,
in part, on its ability to raise additional funds as
required. The Directors give no assurances that
any equity or debt funding will be available to the
Company, or be available on acceptable terms.
Section 10
Weather
The ability of the Company to provide its skydiving
services is weather dependent in that jumps will not
proceed in winds in excess of 25 knots (43 kms/hour).
Sustained heavy rain will also affect timing and ability
to jump.
Whilst every effort is made to maximise the
number of jumps per day, safety of the customers
is of paramount importance and cancellation or
postponement of scheduled jumps may affect revenue
and profitability, notwithstanding that a certain level
of “adverse weather factor” is built into the budgets
and forecasts.

ongoing relationship management with its suppliers
is important to the ongoing success of the Company’s
business. Failure to maintain such relationships with
its suppliers in the future may lead to termination
of any of the supply contracts or lease agreements
and provide opportunities for competitors to gain a

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

A. SKYDIVING

Skydiving is a popular and growing sport, and an important element of military and some emergency services operations globally. The Australian Parachute Federation (APF), the regulating and governing body of skydiving in Australia, highlighted the growth in Australian skydiving in 2013 with first-time jumpers up 8.6 per cent on the previous year from 131,310 to 142,597 and licensed members up 4.3 per cent from 2,393 to 2,495.[1] All persons participating in tandem jumps and/or fun jumps (as described below) require registration with the APF and this includes all people undertaking the jump, instructors and even parachute packers. All are considered “members” of the APF, which maintains a register of all members.

Operators within the recreational skydiving industry generally offer two types of experiences for first time skydivers – tandem jumps and the accelerated freefall course, as well as recreational solo dives or “fun jumps”, for more experienced jumpers.

  • i. Tandem skydiving Introduced in the early 1980s[2] , tandem skydiving is the most common option for first time jumpers as it does not require any experience or extensive training. Tandem jumps offer an introduction to the sport, allowing beginners to take a skydive with an experienced tandem instructor.

A tandem jump requires a short period of ground preparation. The student and tandem instructor each wear a harness but only the tandem instructor wears the parachute, as well as a reserve parachute. The student’s harness is attached to the front of the instructor’s harness and they freefall together for up to 60 seconds or more, open together, and land together under the one parachute. Tandem jumping is designed for those who want to experience freefall before committing to a first-jump course or who just want to do a single skydive. The minimum age for a tandem jump is 12 with no limit on the maximum age, unless health restrictions apply. The oldest tandem student to date in Australia was 94.[3 ]

Tandem skydiving is the most popular type of first time skydive in Australia. In 2013, of 142,597 first time jumpers, 140,365 were conducted as tandem skydives.[4]

The popularity and growth of tandem skydiving is illustrated by the following graph using actual data produced by the APF for years 2010 to 2013 and the Company’s forecast for 2014.

  • ii. Accelerated freefall course The Accelerated Freefall (AFF) program is a nine stage program which began in 1983 as an “accelerated” learning process, as compared to the traditional static line way of training to skydive.

The ground training is extensive as parachute students will be doing a 40-50 second freefall on their very first jump, from 14,000 feet along with two AFF Instructors (jumpmasters) who are there to assist during freefall. The jumpmasters maintain grips on the student from the moment they all leave the aircraft together until the parachute opens, assisting as necessary to fall in a stable manner, perform practice ripcord pulls and monitor altitude. Students pull their own ripcord at about 4000 ft.

iii. Skydiving in Australia Recreational parachuting began in Australia in 1958 and is increasing in popularity every year, with over 325,000 jumps now made each year.[5] The industry is characterised by a large number of suppliers, operating at multiple sites across Australia, with currently 71 registered parachuting organisations around the country[6] offering skydiving services,. The body responsible for aircraft safety and aircraft maintenance is the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) The body responsible for parachuting operations is the APF. The APF operates under a deed of agreement with the CASA to administer and regulate parachuting activities in Australia and also works closely

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

with CASA to ensure parachutists operate in a safe environment.

The barriers to entry to the market for supply of recreational skydives and supply of tandem skydives are low, which is evidenced by the large number of suppliers. Essentially all that is required is an aircraft, a pilot, parachutes, an instructor, one person on the ground, an APF licence, somewhere to take off and land (landing permits) and the ability to comply with all relevant regulations. Sites are easy to find, can be greenfield (may need council approval in some cases), can use existing airfields (payment of landing fee), and sites can be leased or licensed.

The Gold Coast and the Great Barrier Reef are among the most popular destinations for adventure in Australia.[8] According to Tourism Australia, Australia was voted best destination for adventure (international) at the Lonely Planet Magazine India Awards 2014.[9]

Drop zones are usually located close to major cities, towns and tourist attractions such as beaches. There is no drop zone in Sydney as to have skydivers jumping directly over the city may create issues for air traffic control, considering the international and domestic terminals are nearby. The closest drop zones to Sydney are in Wollongong, Picton and the Central Coast.[7 ]

Customer characteristics for the recreational skydiving industry include people who are looking for an adrenaline based activity, with tandem jumpers more likely to be one off/ bucket list participants, while solo jumpers are more likely to be repeat jumpers. According to the APF, in 2013, there were slightly more domestic than overseas participants, with NSW and Queensland having the greatest proportion of new APF members. The majority of new APF members are between 20 and 45 years old.

iv. Safety of Skydiving in Australia Operating a skydiving business involves hazards and risks that could result in the Company incurring losses or liabilities. The STB Group’s operations at each of its drop zones are the subject of public liability insurance arranged by the APF (naming members of the STB Group). This insurance cover for STB Group members is funded through part of membership fees collected from jumpers which is passed on to the APF by the STB Group. The Company has, and intends to maintain, other insurance of its STB Group operations in accordance with industry practice. v. Adventure Tourism Australia Adventure tourism attracts people who want to feel an adrenalin rush and expect the unexpected to happen. In Australia, adventure tourism offers a wide variety of activities like rock-climbing, white water rafting, surfing and sail boarding, skiing and snowboarding, skydiving, scuba diving, parasailing, aerobatic flights, bungee jumping, snorkelling and exploring the outback.

to major capital cities and popular tourist destinations, as well as their scenic outlooks. They highlight typically Australian tourist attractions, from sandy beaches and amazing coastal views to sprawling cityscapes, outback vistas and lush green bushland as far as the eye can see. Please refer to the tables on pages 46 to 48 for further details.

New South Wales:

Sydney (Wollongong) Wollongong is a seaside city located in the Illawarra region. Wollongong lies on the narrow coastal strip between the Illawarra Escarpment and the Pacific Ocean, south of Sydney. Wollongong’s statistical district has a population of 292,190, making Wollongong the third largest city in New South Wales after Sydney and Newcastle, and the tenth largest city in Australia. At June 2013, just under twothirds of the state’s population (4.76 million people) resided in Greater Sydney. Population growth in Greater Sydney accounted for 78% of the state’s total growth in 2012-13.[16] Customer statistics gathered by the STB Group business from the 2013/14 financial year show that approximately 30% of first time skydivers at the Wollongong drop zone were international travellers, backpackers and students and, of the customers living in Australia, 89% were from Greater Sydney and the Illawarra region.

The drop zone headquarters at North Beach, Wollongong is located in an area surrounded by parks, bars, cafes, restaurants and hotels. North Beach is Wollongong’s central beach and is popular with locals and tourists alike.

The Company’s national call centre, accounts, marketing, management and administration staff are currently located at separate premises in Wollongong.

Hunter Valley (Branxton) Set in the heart of Australia’s famous Hunter Valley region, the STB Group’s drop zone is centrally located 20 minutes from Pokolbin and 50 minutes from Newcastle. This country setting provides spectacular views of the worldfamous wine region from 14,000 feet above earth. The business operates from the premises of a parachute club at Branxton, which has a rich history of training and participating in competitions. Customers can choose to tandem skydive or participate in the Accelerated Freefall Course at this location.

Customer statistics gathered by the Company show that in the 2013/14 financial year, 77% of customers at this drop zone were from Newcastle, the Hunter Valley and the Central Coast.

  • Newcastle

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Newcastle Pty Ltd operates from an airfield in Belmont, a suburb located 20 kilometres from Newcastle’s central business district. Belmont is situated on a sandy peninsula formed by the Tasman Sea on the east and Lake Macquarie to the West. The views above this unique drop zone are spectacular and the airfield is home to a number of aviation businesses, including Australia’s only Red Bull Air Race competitor.

The facilities include a terminal building which offers a foyer and customer lounge, office and staff rooms, a packing area and gear up/ video editing room as well as a kitchen and full bathroom. The aircraft depart from right outside the building, giving customers and spectators a perfect view of the runway and landing area from the grassed picnic area. Being self-contained, the Newcastle drop zone allows customers to arrive, complete paperwork and check in, be given a skydiving brief, take off in the aircraft and land the parachute at the one location.

  • Central Coast (Warnervale) Just over an hour from Sydney’s northern beaches and less than an hour from Newcastle the drop zone and office at Warnervale airfield is well positioned to attract locals and tourists looking to enjoy an adventure close to the city.

Company statistics for the 2013-14 financial year show that customers numbers at the Central Coast drop zone are made up of 10% international customers and of the customers living in Australia, 54% are from the Central Coast, 14% are from Newcastle, 22% are from Sydney.

Victoria:

  • Melbourne (St Kilda) The STB Group’s drop zone is the closest skydiving centre to the Melbourne central business district. The St Kilda skydiving office is located close to great shopping, dining and accommodation options. Customers are able to walk to the St Kilda Sea Baths, Luna Park and Acland St in minutes after skydiving.

  • Great Ocean Road (Barwon Heads)

The STB Group’s drop zone at Barwon Heads is an easy day trip from Melbourne. Only 1.5 hours from Melbourne central business district and 15 minutes from Torquay, this drop zone is located at Barwon Heads airfield. The facilities for customers here include an indoor lounge area with big screen TV, viewing area to watch packing of parachutes, toilets, outdoor picnic tables and grassed area perfect for viewing parachutes landing. This popular seaside community radiates coastal charm, from the shallow sandy shoreline of the Barwon River to the windswept surf beaches fronting the Bass Strait.

Customers can elect to do a tandem skydive or participate in the learn to skydive course (AFF) at this site. In addition, there are often events catering for experienced skydivers here.

  • Yarra Valley (Lilydale)

  • The STB Group operates a drop zone from the Lilydale airfield in the Yarra Valley. Customers are able to enjoy the exclusive use of a hangar at the airfield with lounge area, big screen TV, toilets, and outside picnic area. The area offers local produce and well known vineyards, plus cafés, restaurants, wineries, arts and crafts markets and music festivals.

One of Victoria’s favorite tourism destinations, the Yarra Valley is under an hour from Melbourne and popular with day trippers as well as short stay visitors. The STB Group offer free return transfers from the Melbourne central

business district for customers wishing to skydive Monday to Friday.

Western Australia:

  • York York is the oldest inland town in Western Australia (settled in 1831), situated 97 kilometres east of Perth. The town is slowly evolving from a traditional sheep and wheat agricultural community into a tourist town. It features music festivals, a motor museum, art galleries, recreational facilities including skydiving and paragliding, bed and breakfast services and the picturesque Avon River.

The York drop zone is a purpose built skydiving facility, with bunkroom accommodation and camping facilities, a pool and sauna, airconditioned hangar and parachute packing area, meeting/debriefing rooms, Australia’s largest swoop pond, a licensed bar and café, and 140 acres of landing area.

Perth City The Perth City drop zone is located right in the heart of the city in Langley Park, between the Perth central business district and the Swan River. Company data shows that intrastate visitors are the largest source market for Perth, especially Western Australians taking daytrips within the region. However, the economic value of tourism to Perth is driven by the spending of overnight visitors, particularly from international source markets. 22% of customers of the business in this drop zone were classed by the Company as international in 2013.

  • Rockingham Rockingham is a city and primary centre in Western Australia, around a 40 minute drive from Perth and south of Fremantle. It has a beachside location at Mangles Bay, the southern extremity of Cockburn Sound. Rockingham offers numerous coastal activities such as swimming, snorkelling, sailing and surfing at the beautiful beaches, as well as fishing and crabbing.

The City of Rockingham is a rapidly developing residential area, with substantial industrial and commercial areas and a naval area on Garden Island. The City encompasses a total land area of approximately 260 square kilometres, including significant areas of coastline and parkland. Tandem participants are met at Rockingham Naval Memorial Park and the aircraft takes off from Jandakot Airport, customers then skydive from up to 14,000ft above stunning Rockingham Beach.

Queensland:

  • Airlie Beach

  • In April 2014, the Company acquired the skydiving business operating at Airlie Beach. Based at the Whitsundays Aviation Village Estate it is 5km from Airlie Beach on the way to Shute Harbour. The Airlie Beach drop zone is in the heart of Queensland’s popular tourism spot the Whitsunday Islands, a world renowned holiday destination. Airlie Beach is a hub of the Whitsundays region, being the largest town on the Whitsunday Coast, and is highly focused on tourism.

Travellers are offered a variety of accommodation from backpacker hostels to 5 star luxury hotels and resorts with palm-fringed beaches, the carefree relaxed atmosphere, the friendly locals at the seaside markets it is no wonder Airlie Beach is one of the most popular tourism destinations in the world.

Just minutes from the beautiful centre of town, the STB Group offers free return transfers for customers who check-in, gear up and take off from the airport, and touch down right beside the Port of Airlie back in the centre of town.

Facilities & Accreditation

Each of the members of the STB Group which operate the Company’s drop zones are accredited with the APF. The APF promotes high standards of safety and performance and controls skydiving and parachuting at most civilian operations in Australia. With the approval of the CASA it sets operational and safety standards, conducts competitions, issues licences and instructor ratings, conducts exams and distributes publications to keep members up to date.

Aircraft Maintenance Centre Pty Ltd is one of the STB Group of companies now controlled by the Company. It operates a CASA approved aircraft maintenance and engineering facility located in Wollongong, New South Wales, which provides maintenance to the STB Group’s internal fleet. CASA is responsible for the safety regulation of civil air operations in Australia and the operation of Australian aircraft overseas.

This is in accordance with the Company vision and brand value of evolution: a process of continuous development in which the Company is forward thinking about its business and its offering.

6.8 SALES AND MARKETING

Sales Channels

With a variety of customers ranging from backpackers to bucket listers, a number of sales channels are used by STB Group to maximise return.

  • Online – the importance of a strong online presence has been highlighted by the growing trend in online interactions and sales. The business has seen significant growth in both website visitation (39% increase from the 2012/13 year to the 2013/14 year) and revenue from ecommerce (up by 245% in 2013/14 when compared to 2012/13). Ecommerce functionality offers customer convenience, has a potential worldwide reach and 24 hour access. The Company’s business is consistently in the top 3 organic Google rankings for each of its drop zone locations.

  • Gift vouchers – gift vouchers are offered via the online booking system or through direct sales (at drop zone locations or by phone). They generate cash flow, especially in peak sales periods such as Christmas and Father’s Day.

  • 3rd party sales – online and offline operators complement and assist the STB Group’s product distribution. These include large online channels such as adrenalin.com.au, and redballoon.com.au.

Public Relations

The STB Group utilises promotional events, targeted media appearances, local and national articles, and promotional prizes to compliment online and advertising activity. Although not a core sales driver, these activities engage customers, build reputation and create brand awareness. An August 2014 appearance on Channel 10’s show “The Bachelor” gave the business widespread exposure with 640,000 people watching the program. The Company’s website showed a 250% increase in unique visitors using the site while the episode was on air.

Advertising

A mix of innovative and proven advertising channels are used to generate sales leads and satisfy marketing goals. Campaigns are timed to maximise return on investment, and prime seasonal purchase periods such as Christmas and Fathers’ Day see increased marketing activity.

Online advertising delivers timely promotional messages to consumers and includes email, social media and display advertising. The Company also utilises print advertising with brochure distribution, select print advertisements in magazines and newspapers, and letterbox drops all used during the year.

Media advertising such as radio and television is used to promote specific campaigns and increase brand awareness. Large scale advertising such as billboards and sponsored vehicle signage and skydive displays further support marketing goals.

Business Initiatives

The STB Group has a number of business arrangements with tourism bodies, both at a regional and state level. These arrangements provide invaluable support for the business and offer opportunities such as:

  • Trade familiarisation programs

  • Publicity opportunities

  • Workshops

  • Visitor publications

  • Event partnerships and marketing opportunities

  • Product programs and industry assistance

6.10 SAFETY & INSURANCE

Safety

The STB Group has developed carefully considered operational procedures and systems and is proud of its safety record in relation to Injuries sustained with tandem skydiving throughout the STB Group. These are low and below the industry average.

The STB Group is the largest civilian purchaser of new parachuting equipment in the southern hemisphere. All tandem parachutes are fitted with a state of the art, automatic parachute activation device (AAD). In the unlikely event that the tandem instructor cannot open the parachute, the AAD is designed to perform this function with no human input.

All tandem jumpers who skydive near a water body are required to wear life jackets in the unlikely event of landing in water.

The APF audits the STB Group annually, with emphasis on equipment, safety systems, incident reporting and aircraft compliance.

There has never had a tandem skydive fatality within the STB Group and only one in the industry that occurred in 1985 when tandem jumping was first introduced to the public.

Insurance

The APF holds a master insurance policy for which each relevant STB Group company that operates a skydiving business is separately named as an insured. That policy indemnifies the insured against compensation it is legally liable to pay for third party personal injury and property damage whilst participating in parachuting activities conducted under the auspices of the APF.

All customers of STB Group become a member of the APF prior to their skydive and, as such, they fund the cost of such insurance which is included in the cost of their skydive.

In the event of an incident where injuries may be sustained, a full investigation is undertaken by the STB Group in conjunction with the APF and the appropriate state work cover authority (if required) to ensure the STB Group’s policies and procedures were adhered to and the APF then manages all aspects of any potential claim.

Other insurance held by the STB Group includes personal liability, passenger cover, aviation hull and liability cover, management liability, workers compensation, equipment and motor vehicle insurance.

6.11 PROPOSED ACQUISITION

On 10[th] December 2014, Skydive the Beach and Beyond Sydney Wollongong Pty Limited (a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company) entered into a share sale deed with the owners of the shares in Australia Skydive Pty Ltd (“Australia Skydive”), a complementary skydive business in Queensland and northern New South Wales (for further details of the Share Sale Deed and the acquisition refer to section 12.1).

The preconditions to completion of the transaction include, among other things:

  • (a) Detailed warranties given by the vendors of those shares not being false, misleading or incorrect at completion of the transaction;

  • (b) Approval of the transaction by the purchaser’s board;

  • (c) Any third party consents being obtained and encumbrances removed, including without limitation the obtaining of relevant consents from any government authorities to the transaction; and

  • (d) The removal of certain subsidiaries of Australia Skydive from that company’s group, but not certain of their key assets which are to be transferred to Australia Skydive.

The transaction is also subject to finance and stipulates that the acquisition must be complete by 31 March 2015 unless otherwise agreed.

The consideration for the acquisition of all of the shares in Australia Skydive is $11.7 million, payable by way of a non-refundable deposit in 2 instalments totalling $600,000 (already paid as at the date of this Prospectus), the payment of $7.8 million at completion of the transaction, and a further amount of $3.3 million payable over the following 3 years. The latter amount is the subject of a secured loan agreement between the purchaser and the vendors.

The purchaser will assume up to $3 million of the Australia Skydive debt held at completion which relates to certain aircraft, aircraft engines, and motor vehicles. Usual vendor (and related entity) warranties and restraints apply.

On 28 November 2014, following confidential discussions between the Company’s Directors and the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission ( “ACCC” ), the ACCC issued a letter confirming that based on the information provided by the Company to the ACCC in its submission to the ACCC dated 19 November 2014, the ACCC does not intend to conduct a public review of the Proposed Acquisition pursuant to section 50 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010.

As a result of the Proposed Acquisition, when it completes on or before 31 March 2015, the STB Group’s business will grow by the addition of a further 5 drop zones, taking the total number of drop zones operated by the Company and its then Subsidiaries to 16 drop zones.

The vendors of the shares in Australia Skydive have variously been operating skydiving businesses for 30 years. Australia Skydive was the first company to develop the tandem skydive in Australia. It operates tandem skydives only, under various trading names, in various locations in NSW and Queensland. It operates a fleet of 5 aircraft with varying passenger capacity. In 2012/13 financial year, the business of Australia Skydive completed 38,931 tandem jumps and completed 47,492 tandem jumps in the 2013/14 financial year.

The proposed merged entity comprising the STB Group and Australia Skydive accounted for approximately 54 per cent of the total annual tandem jumps nationally in FY2014.

6.12 STB GROUP INCLUDING THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF AUSTRALIA SKYDIVE

The following table sets out the Australia Skydive historical and budget jump numbers, up to and including the 2014/15 financial year. STB Group has assumed no growth in Australia Skydive jump numbers from the 2014/15 financial year to the 2015/16 financial year and will assess the growth prospects of each drop zone if and when the acquisition is complete.

Refer to Section 7.7, including the table on page 46

The rationale for the acquisition is:

  • (e) For STB Group to be able to offer customers a truly national experience, the ability to jump at multiple sites across Australia;

  • (f) The acquisition will allow faster growth than through establishment of greenfield start up sites;

  • (g) To target the Queensland in-bound market, which is well established in Queensland;

  • (h) To smooth out monthly revenue variance due to seasonality, with the North Queensland dry season offsetting the southern states winter season, and

  • (i) To take advantage of considerable economies of scale (none of which have been factored into the financial forecasts set out below and in Section 7).

This transaction will also allow the STB Group to better compete with competitors such as indoor skydiving operators who can offer “jumps” that are cheaper, all weather and use less equipment.

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY AND PROPOSED ACQUISITION

6.13 COMPETITITION

Other Skydive Operators

The industry is characterised by a large number of suppliers, operating at multiple sites across Australia. There are currently 71 registered parachute organisations across Australia according to APF, offering skydiving services, mostly based on east coast. Barriers to entry are low, hence the number of smaller operators. Technical, safety, training, aircraft and administration experts are available for free to start ups through the APF, while take off and jump landing sites/locations are relatively easy to find, using existing airfields (for a fee) or sites that can be leased or licensed.

scuba diving, reef trips, kayaking, kite surfing, surf schools and scenic cable cars, as well as adventure parks like Dreamworld, SeaWorld, Luna Park, Scenic World, etc.

Each of these pursuits is competing for the adventure dollar. STB Group expends approximately 9% of its revenue in marketing to ensure it optimises its share of this ever expanding market.

Planes can be hired, leased or purchased and parachutes can be hired or purchased new or second hand. Pilots and other staff can be casually employed.

Some of the STB Group drop zone leases and licences are subject to annual renewals, and are the subject of a tender process and such leases are non-exclusive, but it is worth noting that STB Group has never had a licence renewal for an existing drop zone site refused to date. The majority of sites are the subject of long term leases with options to extend. See sections 12 and 13 for details of STB Group leases.

Nonetheless, scale has the advantage of reduced cost per tandem by using highly fuel efficient turbo prop aircraft, together with economies of scale in marketing & sales and back office operations and administration.

STB Group’s market share in the 2013/14 financial year was approximately 27%, with 41,241 tandem jumps out of an estimated total of 160,000 Australia wide. It is anticipated that this will rise to circa 54% of the total tandem jumps nationally and is forecast to exceed 100,000 jumps on an annualised basis for the financial year 2015/16.

Indoor Skydiving

Indoor skydiving in Australia is relatively new, but internationally there are over 40 “wind tunnels” operating in USA and Europe, each of which provides a simulation of freefall skydiving, without the need to ascend to 14,000 feet in an aircraft.

Experienced skydivers or “fun jumpers” use wind tunnels for training and honing their skills, so competition from indoor skydiving could have an effect on the number of jumps taken by experienced skydivers, but is unlikely to affect tandem jumps and is considered complimentary to the tandem operations of the STB Group. Fun jumpers make up less than 5% of STB Group’s revenue, while tandem jumpers provide 95% of revenue.

STB Group has a cross promotional marketing arrangement with ISA Group Limited, operator of IFLY Downunder windtunnel at Penrith, New South Wales, to encourage indoor flyers to try tandem jumping and vice versa.

Other “Adrenalin” or Adventure Pursuits

Other competitors include other “adrenalin” or adventure activities, such as bungee jumping, V8 supercar, prestige and rally car drives, white water rafting, jet boat rides, quad biking, joy flights, diving with sharks, abseiling, bridge climb,

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

  • 7.1 BACKGROUND TO THE SKYDIVE THE BEACH GROUP AGGREGATED GROUP

Skydive the Beach Group Limited was incorporated on 19 December 2013 to become the parent company to the Skydive The Beach Group of companies that were substantially owned by interests associated with the founder, Anthony Boucaut, for the purpose of raising new capital and listing on the ASX.

The Skydive the Beach Group Aggregated Historical Group ( “Aggregated Historical Group” ) was comprised of multiple entities with various shareholders and directors and the respective entities are listed below:

  • Skydive the Beach Group Limited

  • Skydive the Beach Hybrid Trust

  • Bill & Ben Investments Pty Limited

  • Aircraft Maintenance Centre Pty Limited

  • Skydive Holdings Pty Limited

  • Skydive the Beach Melbourne Discretionary Trust

  • Skydive the Beach Central Coast Discretionary Trust

  • Skydive the Hunter Valley Pty Limited

  • Skydive Perth Discretionary Trust

  • Melbourne Skydive Centre Discretionary Trust

  • B & B No. 2 Pty Limited

  • Skydive the Beach Great Ocean Road Discretionary Trust

  • Skydive the Beach Arlie Beach Pty Limited

The Aggregated Historical Group was audited for the year ended 30 June 2014 and the statutory historical financial information which appears in this Section 7 has been extracted from an Aggregated Special Purpose Financial Report that was prepared to reflect the position that would have been in place, had all of the entities forming part of the newly established STB Group Limited been subsidiaries for the year ended 30 June 2014.

The unaudited results for the year ended 30 June 2013 were extracted from the Aggregated Special Purpose Financial Report for the year ended 30 June 2014. The figures reflected for 30 June 2013 as comparatives were compiled from the accounting records of the individual entities comprising the Aggregated Historical Group, and adjusted for changes to the Accounting Policies identified in the year ended 30 June 2014 having an impact on the year ended 30 June 2013 and preceding financial years. Any inter group balances and transactions that were identified were eliminated, and all known errors relating to the year ended 30 June 2013 and preceding financial years were adjusted.

As at 1 July 2014, the STB Group was the subject of the reorganisation ( “STB Reorganisation” ) such that all the businesses and companies in the Aggregated Historical Group that owned and operated the 11 drop zones, together with the companies that owned all of the operating assets, such as aircraft, parachutes, vehicles as well as operating leases, licences, web domains and

business names, etc, transferred those businesses and assets to certain of the companies below, in return for shares in the Company, such that each of the comopanies below became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

After the STB Reorganisation was completed, a single parent entity, being the Company, owned 100% of the following new Subsidiary companies:

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Sydney Wollongong Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Central Coast Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Hunter Valley Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Melbourne Pty Ltd

7.2 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the financial information of the Aggregated Historical Group and the STB Group.

7.2.1 Preparation of the Unaudited Aggregated Historical Group Historical Financial Information

The unaudited Aggregated Historical Group historical financial information has been extracted from the unaudited comparative financial information presented in the audited financial statements of the Aggregated Historical Group for the year ended 30 June 2014.

Investors should be aware that the directors have presented the unaudited Aggregated Historical Group historical financial information for illustrative and comparative purposes only and that it has not been audited nor has it been reviewed by the investigating accountant. For further information, investors should read the qualified audit opinion rendered in relation to the Aggregated Historical Group statutory historical financial information presented in section 7.2.2.

7.2.2 Preparation of the Aggregated Historical Group Statutory Historical Financial Information

The Aggregated Historical Group statutory historical financial information has been extracted from the audited financial statements of the Aggregated Historical Group for the year ended 30 June 2014.

The Aggregated Historical Group statutory historical income and Aggregated Historical Group statutory historical cash flow statements have been audited by RSM Bird Cameron Partners ( “RSMBCP” ).

RSMBCP issued a qualified opinion in respect of the Aggregated Historical Group financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2014. The basis of the qualification was as follows:

Also summarised in this Section 7 are:

  • The basis of preparation and presentation of the financial information ; and

  • Sources and uses of funds raised;

  • Proposed dividend policy;

  • Commentary on capital expenditure;

“We were appointed as auditors of the aggregated group on 4 July 2014. We were unable to satisfy ourselves by alternative means concerning the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year ended 30 June 2013, disclosed as corresponding figures. As a result, we have been unable to determine whether adjustments to these amounts might have been necessary.”

  • Commentary on future acquisitions; and

  • Commentary on debt.

All amounts disclosed in the tables in this Section are presented in Australian dollars and, unless otherwise noted, are rounded to the nearest thousand.

In the opinion of RSMBCP, except for the possible effects on the corresponding figures of the matter described in the basis of qualification, the financial information has been prepared and presented in accordance with the key accounting policies set out later in this Section. The key accounting policies have been consistently applied throughout the periods presented, and are expected to be the key accounting policies of the STB Group.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Aggregated Historical Group statutory historical financial information is presented in an abbreviated form insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act.

7.2.3 Preparation of the STB Group Statutory Historical Financial Information

The STB Group statutory historical financial information has been extracted from the reviewed financial statements of the STB Group for the six months ended 31 December 2014.

The STB Group Statutory Historical Financial Information has been reviewed by RSMBCP.

A review is not an audit and the level is assurance provided is less than an audit opinion. RSMBCP issued an unqualified review opinion in respect of the STB Group financial statements for the six months ended 31 December 2014.

The STB Group financial information has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles of the Australian Accounting Standards issued by the AASB, the Corporations Act and the accounting policies adopted by the Company.

The STB Group statutory historical financial information is presented in an abbreviated form insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act.

7.2.4 Preparation of Pro Forma Historical Financial Information

The pro forma historical financial information has been prepared using the STB Group statutory historical balance sheet and certain pro forma adjustments in relation to the proposed IPO which is the subject of this Prospectus. In particular, the directors pro forma adjustments are intended to made to reflect the impact of, inter alia, the Australia Skydive acquisition (and related costs) and the proposed IPO (and related costs), as though they had occurred as at 31 December 2014.

The directors pro forma adjustments are set out in more detail in section 7.4 below.

The pro forma historical financial information has been prepared, to the extent noted in Section 7.4, in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles of the Australian Accounting Standards issued by the AASB, the Corporations Act and the accounting policies adopted by the Company.

The pro forma historical financial information is presented in an abbreviated form insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act.

7.2.5 Preparation of Pro Forma Forecast Financial Information

The forecast financial information is presented on pro forma basis.

The pro forma financial information has been prepared by the STB Group directors based on an assessment of current economic and operating conditions and on a number of best estimate assumptions regarding future events and actions as set out in Section 7.7. This information is intended to assist investors in assessing the reasonableness and likelihood of the assumptions occurring, and is not intended to be a representation that the assumptions will occur.

The pro forma forecast information has been prepared on a basis consistent with the historical information in that it has been prepared in a manner consistent with the recognition and measurement principles of Australian Accounting Standards.

Pro forma adjustments have been made to reflect the forecast financial information of the STB Group assuming, inter alia, the Australia Skydive acquisition completes as at 1 April 2015 together with the new capital and ownership structure that is expected to be in place on or before that date.

For clarification the pro forma financial information includes the impact of the Australia Skydive acquisition for the full year FY2016 only.

The directors of the STB Group consider the best estimate assumptions, when taken as a whole, to be reasonable at the time of preparing this Prospectus. However, by its nature, prospective information is not fact, and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the pro forma forecast financial information.

Investors should be aware that the timing of actual events and the magnitude of their impact might differ from that assumed in preparing the pro forma forecast financial information, and that this may have a material positive or material negative effect on the STB Group’s actual financial performance or financial position. In addition, the assumptions upon which the pro forma forecast financial information is based are by their very nature subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which will be outside the control of the STB Group, the Directors and management, and are not reliably predictable.

Further, assumptions made in relation to the operations of Australia Skydive have been based upon unaudited financial and other operating information provided by Australia Skydive during the course of pre-acquisition discussions between the parties, and due diligence undertaken by STB Group management and advisors. Australia Skydive has represented to the STB Group that the information is materially accurate and the directors of the STB Group consider this information to have been provided in good faith, however, note that they have not operated the Australia Skydive business and therefore are not able to warrant the accuracy of the information provided and upon which these forecasts are based.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Accordingly, none of STB Group, the directors, nor any other person can give investors any assurance that the outcomes discussed in the pro forma forecast financial information will occur.

The pro forma forecast financial information should be read in conjunction with the assumptions as set out in Section 7.7, the sensitivity analysis as set out in Section 7.7.2, the risk factors as set out in Section 10 and other information in this Prospectus.

STB Group has no intention to update or revise the pro forma forecast financial information or other forward looking statements regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this Prospectus, except where required by law.

The financial information presented in this Section should be read in conjunction with the risk factors set out in Section 10 and other information contained in this Prospectus.

The directors pro forma adjustments made are:

  1. The pro forma adjustments include consideration of $11.7 million for the acquisition of the Australia Skydive equity (discussed at section 6.12) which is assumed to be funded in accordance with the SPA.
CONSIDERATION $
Cash deposit paid in December 2014 400,000
Cash deposit paid in February 2015 200,000
Initial consideration paid payable in March 2015 7,800,000
Vendor finance 3,300,000
Consideration for the Australia Skydive equity 11,700,000
  1. Australia Skydive is a private company and is not required to, and does not, produce audited or reviewed financial statements. Further, a condition precedent to the acquisition is a reorganisation of the existing Australia Skydive group under which certain subsidiaries will be removed from the group and any related party balances eliminated.

To assist investors in their assessment of the pro forma financial position of the STB Group as at 31 December 2014 (assuming the acquisition of Australia Skydive completed as at that date), the directors of STB Group have prepared the unaudited pro forma Australia Skydive balance sheet as at 31 December 2014 presented above. The unaudited pro forma Australia Skydive balance sheet has been prepared based on the unaudited consolidated management balance sheet of Australia Skydive as at 31 December 2014 adjusted for issues identified in the directors due diligence on the Australia Skydive financial position as at 31 December 2014, and includes:

  • ∘ Pro forma working capital balances (current assets and current liabilities) extracted from the unaudited Australia Skydive consolidated management accounts as at 31 December 2014;

  • ∘ The STB Directors pro forma estimate of the fair value of the aircraft owned by Australia Skydive;

  • ∘ Pro forma intangible assets (representing Trademarks, Goodwill and Licences) extracted from the unaudited consolidated Australia Skydive management accounts as 31 December 2014;

  • ∘ Pro forma borrowings of $3.0 million being the maximum level of debt which, pursuant to the SPA, will be assumed by the STB Group upon acquisition; and

  • ∘ Where the STB directors have restated the carrying value of assets or liabilities in preparing the unaudited pro forma Australia Skydive consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2014, such restatements have also been reflected in the revaluation reserve or retained earnings as appropriate.

The directors of STB Group do not represent that the unaudited pro forma Australia Skydive balance sheet as at 31 December 2014 has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.

  1. The excess of consideration over the STB directors unaudited pro forma Australia Skydive net assets acquired is $6,373,344.

  2. The vendor finance amount of $3.3 million is payable three years from settlement and has been classified as a pro forma non-current liability in the pro forma balance sheet. The amount payable bears interest at 6% and has not been discounted to present value.

  3. The Share Sale Deed allows for STB to assume debt of up to $3.0 million. In line with the terms of certain existing STB Group borrowings, the terms of the assumed debt are estimated to be a five year loan with 50% of the initial balance amortising and 50% of the initial balance a residual payment. Accordingly, one fifth of the 50% amortising portion of the assumed debt has been classified as pro forma current ($300,000) with the remaining portion together with the residual amount ($2.7 million), classified as pro forma non-current.

  4. The pro forma balance sheet reflects costs, not yet incurred, relating to the acquisition of Australia Skydive of $164,774 which will be expensed in accordance with their likely treatment under AASB 3 – Business Combinations.

  5. The pro forma balance sheet reflects costs of the Offer, not yet incurred, of $58,100 which are recognised as pro-forma expenses (shown in retained earnings) as at 31 December 2014 as they are, in the directors’ view, expected to be incurred for matters other than the raising of new issued capital.

  6. The pro forma balance sheet includes a reversal of costs of the Offer of $216, 231 recorded in Trade & other receivables as at 31 December 2014. These costs have been set off against new issued capital.

  7. A pro forma adjustment has been made to reallocate certain costs ($35,000) which were expensed (and in retained earnings) as at 31 December 2014 which are pro forma costs of raising new issued capital.

7.6 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE STATUTORY HISTORICAL

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

7.6.1 General Factors Affecting the Operating Results

Below is a discussion of the general factors which affected Aggregated Historical Group and the STB Group’s operations and relative financial performance in FY2013 and FY2014 and the six months to 31 December 2014 which the Directors expect may continue to affect it in the future.

The discussion of those general factors is intended to provide a brief summary only and does not detail all factors that affected Aggregated Historical Group ant the STB Group’s historical operating and financial performance, nor everything which may affect operations and financial performance in the future.

Revenue

Key revenue items include:

  • Jump revenue – The majority of jump revenue is derived from tandem skydives. Student first jump training and experienced skydiver jumps complement the revenue base.

Factors affecting jump revenue are booking numbers, per flight aircraft lift capacity, booked to jumped processing rates and jump retail prices. Increases in jump revenue during FY2013 and FY2014 have been experienced which the directors consider has resulted from a combination of going concern acquisitions, development of greenfield sites, diversification of product and organic growth at existing drop zones/sites.

  • Audiovisual product revenue – Revenue is raised from the sale of audio visual products produced from the filming of customer jumps. The percentage of customers who purchase these products, the retail price to the consumer and the ability of staff to make sales are key variables. The STB Group has diversified the range of audio-visual products available and increased the percentage of customers who purchase these products.

Operating Expenses

Key expense items include:

  • Tandem instructor costs – Tandem instructors, who are all sub-contractors to the business, are remunerated on a per jump and per video capture basis. Tandem instructor costs account for approximately 19% of the revenue dollar from a tandem jump. The cost is fixed to a contracted amount percentage of ultimate sale. Due to the nature of “piece pay” remuneration, instructors capturing the video images of the jump are also part of the sales process.

  • Fuel costs – Fuel is a significant expense in aviation businesses and represents approximately 9% of the revenue dollar. Factors affecting fuel costs are cost per litre, aircraft loading efficiencies, maximum lift capacity of an aircraft, performance of the aircraft and engine fuel burn characteristics. The STB Group has secured volume discounts on the per litre price of fuel. The directors consider that expansion in the business may allow negotiation of additional discounts.

The purchase of modern fuel efficient and large load carrying turbine aircraft has lowered fuel cost per head. STB Group’s investment in operational management training, booking and site management systems has increased aircraft load efficiency and lowered fuel cost per head.

  • Operating expenses – Operating expenses include staff wages, purchase and maintenance of skydiving equipment, vehicles, insurances, technology and IT and represent approximately 9% of the revenue dollar. The STB Group manages its costs through selection and training of operations managers, the aggregating of positions and focus on customer processing rates.

equipment are negotiated. The purchase and development of booking, site and aircraft management software have assisted managing operational costs. The directors consider the STB Group has a sound reporting structure with key personnel accountable to operational performance and key performance indicators.

Commentary on Each Drop Zone Forecast – STB Group

Over the four years from FY2011 to FY2014, the number of jumps undertaken at the Wollongong drop zone has grown by an average 4.9% per annum (FY2011 - 16,265 tandem skydives, FY2014 - 18,781 tandem skydives)

Wollongong

In preparing the forecasts, the Directors have assumed growth rates below the historical average. This is due, in part, to the Directors recognising that the Wollongong drop zone is relatively mature, having been in operation for in excess of 15 years using the current aircraft configuration.

Accordingly, the number of tandem jumps is forecast to be 19,310 (year on year (‘YOY’) growth 2.2%) in FY2015 and 19,500 (YOY growth 1.0%) in FY2016.

The Central Coast drop zone has been operating for three full financial years. Over the period from FY2012 to FY2014, the Central Coast drop zone has grown at an average 18.8% per annum (FY2012 - 798 tandem skydives, FY2014 - 1,126 tandem skydives)

Central Coast

In FY2015, the Directors have assumed a growth rate of 6.6%, which is lower than the historical average YOY growth rate due to the potential capacity constraints associated with the type of aircraft used at the Central Coast drop zone.

For FY2016, the Directors have assumed no growth in tandem jump numbers due to the yet to be assessed potential impact of the new Newcastle drop zone, which is expected to be fully operational during FY2016.

Accordingly, tandem jump numbers are forecast to be 1,200 (YOY growth 6.6%) in FY2015 and 1,200 (YOY growth 0.0%) in FY2016.

FINANCIAL
INFORMATION
Hunter Valley
The Hunter Valley drop zone has been operating for three full financial years. Over the period from
FY2012 to FY2014, the Hunter Valley drop zone averaged 17.4% growth per annum (FY2012 - 1,140 tandem
skydives, FY2014 - 1,573 tandem skydives)
In FY2015, the Directors have assumed a growth rate of 14.4%. During FY2014 the number of bookings
continued to grow, however customers were not able to be processed (to complete the tandem skydive)
due to capacity constraints of aircraft being used at the drop zone. The Directors have made operational
changes which have resulted in a larger capacity aircraft being moved to the Hunter Valley drop zone for
operation on weekends. The Directors consider these operational changes will increase processing rates
and have adopted the forecast of 1,800 tandem skydives for FY2015.
For FY2016, the Directors have assumed no growth due to the yet to be assessed potential impact of the
new Newcastle drop zone which is expected to be fully operational during FY2016.
Accordingly, tandem jumps are forecast to be 1,800 (YOY growth 14.4%) in FY2015 and 1,800 (YOY
growth 0.0%) in FY2016.
Newcastle
The Newcastle drop zone was established in November 2014 after taking a number of years to establish
(acquiring access to the airfield, council permits, etc).
Newcastle has been targeted as a drop zone site due to its similarity to the Wollongong drop zone, being
proximate to a major city (Sydney), a major regional city (Newcastle) and with a beach landing zone
(Belmont). The Directors believe that, over the longer term, this drop zone has the potential to achieve
similar tandem skydive numbers as those achieved at the Wollongong drop zone.
The target of 1,200 tandem skydives for the eight months of FY2015 since the drop zone was established
is lower than that achieved in Wollongong in its first full year of operation (1,478 in 1999). FY2016 will be
the first full financial year of operation and no growth has been forecast.
Targeted tandem skydives for FY2015 are 1,200 for the 8 months and FY2016 is forecast at
annualised 1,800.
St Kilda
The St Kilda drop zone was established in FY2011. Over the period from FY2012 to FY2014, the St
Kilda drop zone has averaged 49.5% growth per annum (FY2012 - 2,221 tandem skydives, 2014 - 4,948
tandem skydives).
To address the growth in the drop zone, the Directors have added additional carrying capacity through
the acquisition of a Cessna 208 aircraft, a 17 seat aircraft which allows up to eight tandem skydives per
flight, which operates 7 days per week.
Accordingly, tandem jumps are forecast to be 5,400 (YOY growth 9.1%) in FY2015 and 6,000 (YOY
growth 11.1%) in FY2016.
Lilydale
The Lilydale drop zone was acquired in June 2012. Over the two years to FY2014, the Lilydale drop zone
averaged in excess of 4,500 tandem skydive bookings, of which 4,053 tandem skydives were processed
in FY2013 and 3,450 were processed in FY2014. The Directors note the lower than average conversion
rate resulting in the decrease was due, in part, to a combination of poor weather at the drop zone, the
limited carrying capacity of the aircraft being used at the drop zone and a reduction in operational days
for parts of the year (from 7 days to 5 days over the winter period).
The Directors have forecast of 4,000 tandem skydives for FY2015 as bookings remain over 4,500 per
annum, drop zone operational days have returned to 7 days a week as additional staff have since been
engaged and a larger aircraft has been placed at the drop zone to increase the carrying capacity.
Accordingly, tandem jumps are forecast to be 4,000 (YOY growth 15.9%) in FY2015 and 4,400 (YOY
growth 10%) in FY2016.
Great Ocean Road
The Great Ocean Road (Barwon Heads) drop zone commenced operation in June 2012.
In FY2013, 1,857 tandem skydives were completed and 4,824 were completed in FY2014, an increase of
approximately 160%.
Tandem jumps are forecast to be 6,000 (growth 24.4%) in FY2015 and 6,600 (growth 10.0%) in FY2016.
York
The York drop zone was acquired by STB in August 2012. The previous owners of the drop zone
conducted 1,794 tandem skydives in FY2012.
In FY2013, 4,125 tandem skydives were completed and 4,568 were completed in FY2014. The York drop
zone now operates 7 days a week and utilises a large turbo prop aircraft (Cessna 208) with capacity of up
to eight tandem skydivers in one flight.
Accordingly, tandem jumps are forecast to be 5,200 (growth 13.8%) in FY2015 and 5,700 (growth 9.6%)
in FY2016.
Perth City
The Perth City drop zone commenced in FY2014 and initially operated on weekends only using a small
Cessna 182 aircraft (2 tandem skydivers per flight). In its first (partial) year of operation, 641 tandem
jumps were completed.
Based on STB’s experience in commencing operations in major cities, the Directors have forecast 1,500
tandem skydives in FY2015 and 2,000 in FY2016. As the jump bookings increase to require additional
capacity, the Directors will consider a larger aircraft for the drop zone and additional operating days will
be added.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Rockingham drop zone commenced in FY2014 and initially operated on weekends only using a small Cessna 182 aircraft (2 tandem skydivers per flight). In its first (partial) year of operation, 497 tandem jumps were completed. The drop zone is a 40 minute drive from Perth CBD (46km) and caters to customers who prefer a beach Rockingham landing tandem skydive. Based on STB’s experience in commencing operations, the Directors have forecast 1,500 tandem skydives in FY2015 and 2,000 in FY2016. As the jump bookings increase to require additional capacity, the Directors will consider a larger aircraft for the drop zone and additional operating days will be added. The Airlie Beach drop zone was acquired in April 2014 and over the two months in the FY2014 year, 833 tandem skydives were completed. The Directors are intending to replace the current aircraft at the drop zone (3 tandem skydivers per Airlie Beach flight) with a larger aircraft (up to 8 tandem skydivers per flight) and, to increase the visibility of the business amongst tourists, utilise one of the approved landing areas near the centre of town. Targeted tandem skydives for FY2015 are 5,000 and FY2016 are 6,000.

Commentary on Each Drop Zone Forecast – Australia Skydive

The Directors have reviewed and adopted the forecasts for the tandem skydive numbers and DVD sales as set out in the FY2015 budget of Australia Skydive for the purposes of preparing the FY2015 forecasts. As the Company has not yet taken control of the Australia Skydive business and has not identified all the potential synergy or other benefits from the acquisition, the Directors have assumed no growth in these metrics for FY2016 from any of the acquired drop zones.

In FY2013, Australia Skydive’s Cairns drop zone completed 9,053 tandem skydives with 10,407 completed in FY2014 (up 15.0%). Cairns The Australia Skydive FY2015 forecast of 10,595 represents forecast YOY growth of 1.8%, of which around 2,511 are forecast to occur in FY2015 for the 3 months post acquisition. In FY2013, Australia Skydive’s Mission Beach drop zone completed 10,936 tandem skydives with 12,547 completed in FY2014 (up 14.7%). Mission Beach The Australia Skydive FY2015 forecast of 12,912 represents forecast growth of 2.9%, of which around 2,731 are forecast to occur in FY2015 for the 3 months post acquisition. In FY2013, Australia Skydive’s Redcliffe drop zone completed 4,702 tandem skydives with 3,815 completed in FY2014 (down 19.9%). The reduction in tandem skydives in FY2014 was, in part due to reduced operating days at the drop zone. Redcliffe, Brisbane In FY2015, Australia Skydive has increased the operating days to the level of FY2013. The Australia Skydive FY2015 forecast of 4,045 represents forecast growth of 6.2%, of which around 827 are forecast to occur in FY2015 for the 3 months post acquisition. In FY2013, Australia Skydive’s Byron Bay drop zone completed 11,096 tandem skydives with 15,395 completed in FY2014 (up 38.7%). Byron Bay The Australia Skydive FY2015 forecast of 15,631, represents forecast growth of 1.5%, of which around 4,465 are forecast to occur in FY2015 for the 3 months post acquisition. Australia Skydive ran a drop zone at Penrith during FY2013 which did 3144 jumps, which was closed in favour of the Central Coast. The Central Coast drop zone commenced operations in late November 2013 and in FY2014 completed 5,328 tandem skydives (annualised approximately 7,932 per annum). Central Coast The Australia Skydive FY2015 forecast of 8,644 represents forecast growth of 8.9% on the annualised number, of which around 1,877 are forecast to occur in FY2015 for the 3 months post acquisition.

Commentary on Balina Forecast

*Ballina includes a forecast of an additional 4,000 tandems from a proposed, but not yet undertaken, purchase of an existing drop zone operated by Skydive the Beach Byron Bay Unit Trust. Interests associated with Anthony Boucaut currently own 1/3rd of that business and it was accounted for as “an equity accounted investment in an associated entity” in the 2014 Aggregated Historical Financial Report. An in-principle arrangement exists where , subject to formal agreement with the 2/3 owners, an acquisition of 100% of the business is likely to take place no later than 1 July 2015. In FY2014 the drop zone completed 4,124 tandems and a 1/3 share of associated entity’s results after income tax was included in the 2014 Aggregated Historical Financial Report.

Average Jump prices

The average price paid by customers for a tandem jump varies by state and location but averages circa $416 per jump, including the sale of DVD and merchandise. The average price in each location has been used in FY2015 with a 4% increase in price assumed in FY2016.

For the purposes of preparing the pro forma forecast, STB Group has used a processing rate of 80%.

Seasonality

Assumptions have been made around the seasonality of the business based on historical revenue patterns.

DVD Sales Conversions

The average price paid by customers for the jumps includes the sale of DVDs of the customer’s experience. Since 2010, the business conducted by STB Group has averaged conversions of DVD sales to the number of tandem skydives performed of 70.11%.

Cost of goods sold

Key cost of goods sold items include:

Tandem instructor costs

Tandem Instructors are typically subcontractors and are paid on a per tandem basis. On average they receive $76 per tandem including commission on DVD sales.

Aircraft costs

“DVD Sales”, for the purposes of this forecast and graph, include the sale of both photo and DVD packages, and typically these range from $109 to $199 per package. A 4% increase in price has been assumed in FY2016.

Booking Conversion Rate

Jump revenue is also dependent on the number of bookings made for each particular day at each drop zone. Typically the numbers of bookings are larger than the number of actual tandem jumps ultimately performed, and this rate/conversion is otherwise known as the “processing rate”. Since 2010 STB Group has averaged a processing rate of 82.10%, meaning that during this period there were of bookings that were not jumped due to inter alia weather constraints or aircraft availability.

Aircraft costs are determined by the type of aircraft that is being used at the particular location.

7.7.2 Sensitivity Analysis

The STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts presented above are based on a number of estimates and assumptions described in this section. These estimates and assumptions are subject to business, economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the STB Group, its Directors and management. These estimates are also based on assumptions in relation to future business developments which may be subject to change and should be read in association with the Investment Risks set out at Section 10.

The changes to key assumptions set out in the sensitivity analysis are intended to provide a guide only and are not intended to be indicative of the complete range of variations which may be experienced. Variations in actual performance could exceed the ranges shown.

For the purposes of this analysis, each sensitivity is presented in terms of the impact on FY2015 EBITDA and FY 2016 EBITDA, and is set out below.

ASSUMPTION SENSITIVITY 2015 2016
Base EBITDA - 6,209 10,942
Number of tandem +5% 6,542 11,774
jumps completed -5% 5,875 10,109

advertising, repairs

-5% 6,463 11,567
other overhead costs

Care should be taken in interpreting these sensitivities. The estimated impact in changes in each of the variables has been calculated in isolation from changes in other variables in order to illustrate the likely impact on the pro forma forecast FY 2015 and FY 2016 EBITDA. In practice, changes in variables may offset each other or be additive, and it is likely that STB Group management would respond to any adverse change in one item to seek to minimise the net effect on the STB Group’s EBITDA and cash flow.

7.7.3 Dividends

The directors of the Company propose to declare a dividend with respect to the Financial Year ended 30 June 2015 of $0.01 per share, expected to be payable to shareholders in October 2015, provided the maximum subscription is raised and pro forma forecast results are achieved.

7.7.4 Financial Ratios

Based on the historical financial information and the pro forma forecast financial information provided above, the key financial ratios for Aggregated Historical Group and the STB Group, assuming receipt of proceeds of the Offer under the maximum scenario and the ASG acquisition is completed on 1 April 2015 are:

that would have been in place had all of the entities forming part of the newly established Skydive the Beach Group Limited been subsidiaries for the year ended 30 June 2014.

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the Aggregated Historical Group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on aggregation.

The Aggregated Historical Group was reorganised as at 1 July 2014 which resulted in a single parent entity being the Company.

After the STB Reorganisation was completed, a single parent entity, being the Company, owned 100% of the following new Subsidiary companies either directly or indirectly (the STB Group):

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Sydney Wollongong Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Central Coast Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Hunter Valley Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Melbourne Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Yarra Valley Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Great Ocean Road Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Perth Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Airlie Beach Pty Ltd

  • Skydive the Beach and Beyond Newcastle Pty Ltd

  • Skydive.com.au Pty Ltd

  • STBAUS Pty Ltd

  • Bill & Ben Investments Pty Ltd

  • B&B No. 2 Pty Ltd

  • Aircraft Maintenance Centre Pty Ltd

  • Skydive Holdings Pty Ltd

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the STB Group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation.

Consistent accounting policies are employed by each entity in the Aggregated Historical Group and in the STB Group in the presentation and preparation of their consolidated financial information.

(a) Group reorganisations of entities under common control

Where the combining entities are ultimately controlled by the same part both before and after the combination, the transaction is a “common control” transaction, outside the scope of AASB 3 Business Combinations. Such a transaction is accounted for using the “pooling of interests” method whereby:

  • ∘ The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts;

  • ∘ No “new” goodwill is recognised as a result of the combination; and

  • ∘ The income statement reflects the results of the combining entities for the full period, irrespective of when the combination took place.

Financial information in the financial statements for the periods prior to the combination under common control is not restated to reflect the results of the group prior to that date.

  • (b) Business combinations

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value which is calculated as the sum of the acquisitiondate fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity instruments issued in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisitionrelated costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.

Where the consideration transferred in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisitiondate fair value. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.

Where a business combination is achieved in stages, previously held interests in the acquired entity are re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date (i.e. the date control was obtained) and the resulting gain or loss, is recognised in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss, where such

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

treatment would be appropriate if that interest were disposed of.

If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting year in which the combination occurs, provisional amounts are reported for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement year, or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date.

The measurement year is the year from the date of acquisition to the date complete information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date – and is subject to a maximum of one year.

  • (c) Goodwill

Goodwill arising in a business combination is recognised as an asset and carried at cost as established at the date that control is acquired (the acquisition date) less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually.

  • (d) Income tax

Income tax expense or benefit represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting year. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the expected manner, at the end of the reporting year, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Tax consolidated group

Skydive the Beach Group Limited (the ‘head entity’) and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The head entity and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has applied the ‘group allocation’ approach in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year for each stand alone entity. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting year.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting year and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group.

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 tax consolidated group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that the intercompany charge equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither a contribution by the head entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by the subsidiaries to the head entity.

  • (e) Fair value of assets and liabilities

Some of its assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis, depending on the requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard.

Fair value is the price an third party would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly (i.e. unforced) transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing market participants at the measurement date.

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to determine fair value.

SKYDIVE THE BEACH AND BEYOND | REPLACEMENT PROSPECTUS | 2015

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT DOCUMENT 52

7

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Adjustments to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability. The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or liability (i.e. the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs).

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s ability to use the asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

(f) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling prices of inventories less all estimated costs to make the sale.

(g) Property, plant and equipment (PP&E) PP&E is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

In the event the carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated recoverable amount. A formal assessment of recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present (refer to i.) for details of impairment).

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 entity and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets, including building and capitalised lease assets but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life to the entity 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
Plant and equipment 25%
Aircraft and engines 6.7%
Parachute rigs 10%
Office equipment 25%
Motor vehicles 10%
Leasehold improvements 2.5%

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 or losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

(h) Leases

Leases of fixed assets, where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset (but not the legal ownership) are transferred to the Group, are classified as finance leases.

Finance leases are capitalised by recognising 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 straightline basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the Group will obtain ownership of the asset, or over the term of the lease.

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, re recognised as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term.

  • (i) Impairment of assets

  • At the end of each reporting period, an assessment is made as to whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include considering external sources of information and internal sources of information. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another Standard (e.g. in accordance with the revaluation model in AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment). Any impairment loss of a revalued

SKYDIVE THE BEACH AND BEYOND | REPLACEMENT PROSPECTUS | 2015

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other dard. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

  • (j) Intangibles other than goodwill

Trademarks and licences are capitalised only when it is clear that they will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably. Capitalised trademarks and licences are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over their useful life.

  • (k) Employee benefits

  • (l) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the company 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. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

  • (m) 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 borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

  • (n) Revenue and other income

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised once the service has been provided.

Short-term employee benefits

Provision is made for the STB Group’s obligation for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled.

The STB Group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as a part of current trade and other payables in the statement of financial position.

Other long-term employee benefits

Provision is made for employees’ long service leave and annual leave entitlements not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. Other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. Expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, durations of service and employee departures and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have maturity dates that approximate the terms of the obligations. Upon the re-measurement of obligations for other long-term employee benefits, the net change in the obligation is recognised in profit or loss as a part of employee benefits expense.

The STB Group’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as noncurrent provisions in its statement of financial position, except where the STB Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period, in which case the obligations are presented as current provisions.

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method, which, for floating rate financial assets is the rate inherent in the instrument.

  • (o) Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Refer to Note 1(h) for further discussion on the determination of impairment losses.”

  • (p) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables represent the liabilities for goods and services received by the entity that remain unpaid at the end of the reporting period. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amounts normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

  • (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 recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.”

(r) Goods and services tax (GST)

  • Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. 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 ATO are presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers.

  • (s) Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements 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 and Judgements

Inventories

Inventory compromises mainly aircraft spare parts, workshop accessories, loose tools and other general equipment. The STB Group did not previously have perpetual inventory records, and consequently a full inventory count was conducted during the year ended 30 June 2014. The Group employed the services of an industry expert to assist with the identification of the inventory and the estimated cost of such inventory. Management used their judgement to estimate the years in which the inventory was acquired, and the inventory was accounted for on this basis.

The Group’s directors has assessed that the value of inventories are not depreciable assets and instead form part of the entities inventories.

Property, Plant and Equipment Subsequent Costs

The Group has historically expensed its scheduled maintenance costs for the airplanes it operates, as opposed to recognising the cost of the scheduled maintenance as an asset, and depreciating that cost over the service period. The directors have considered the potential impact of this practice on the financial statements and determined that the effect of such historical practice is not material.

7.9 SOURCES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

In conjunction with the Offer, the Company will issue new equity of $10 million under the minimum subscription scenario, $20 million under the maximum subscription scenario, and $25 million in the event that oversubscriptions to the full amount of $5 million are received and accepted.

INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

Aggregated Historical Group financial information

The historical financial information for the Aggregated Historical Group has been extracted from the financial report of the Aggregated Historical Group for the year ended 30 June 2014, which was audited by RSM Bird Cameron Partners.

RSM Bird Cameron Partners issued a qualified audit opinion on the Aggregated Historical Group’s financial report for the year ended 30 June 2014 noting to they did not audit the comparative financial information for the year ended 30 June 2013, as follows:

“Basis for Qualified Opinion

“We were appointed auditors of the aggregated group on 4 July 2014. We were unable to satisfy ourselves by alternative means concerning the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year ended 30 June 2013, disclosed in the corresponding figures. As a result, we have been unable to determine whether adjustments to these amounts might have been necessary.”

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion, except for the possible effects on the corresponding figures of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified opinion paragraph (above), the financial report presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Skydive the Beach Group as of 30 June 2014 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting policies described in Note 1 to the financial accounts”

The Aggregated Historical Group’s Historical Financial Information is presented in the Replacement Prospectus in an abbreviated form, insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Auditing Standards applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 .

STB Group historical financial information

The historical financial information for the STB Group has been extracted from the financial report of the STB Group for the six months ended 31 December 2014, which was reviewed by RSM Bird Cameron Partners in accordance with the Auditing Standard on Review Engagements, ASRE 2410 Review of an Interim Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity .

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 the reviewer to obtain assurance that they would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, a review opinion is not an audit opinion.

RSM Bird Cameron Partners issued an unqualified review opinion on the financial statements of the STB Group for the six months ended 31 December 2014.

The STB Group’s Historical Financial Information is presented in the Replacement Prospectus in an abbreviated form, insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Auditing Standards applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 .

INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

Pro forma historical financial information

You have requested RSM Bird Cameron Corporate Pty Ltd to review the STB Group’s pro forma historical Statement of Financial Position as at 31 December 2014 (the STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information).

The STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information has been derived from:

  • the STB Group Statement of Financial Position as at 31 December 2014, extracted from the reviewed financial statements of the STB Group for the six months ended 31 December 2014 (the Historical Statement of Financial Position); and

  • the directors pro forma adjustments applied to the Historical Statement of Financial Position to illustrate the effect of events and transactions related to the IPO and the Australia Skydive acquisition as described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus.

The stated basis of preparation of the STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information is the recognition and measurement principles contained in Australian Auditing Standards applied to the historical Statement of Financial Position as at 31 December 2014 and, to the extent stated in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus, the events or transactions to which the pro forma adjustments as described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus, as if those events or transactions had occurred as at 31 December 2014.

Due to its nature, the STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information does not represent the company’s actual or prospective financial position.

The STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information is presented in the Replacement Prospectus in an abbreviated form, insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Auditing Standards applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 .

Pro forma forecast financial information

You have asked us to review the pro forma forecast Statements of Financial Performance of the STB Group for the years ending 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2016 as set out in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus (the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts).

The STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts have been derived from:

  • the STB Group’s Statement of Financial Performance for the six months ended 31 December 2014, extracted from the reviewed financial statements of the STB Group for the six months ended 31 December 2014;

  • the directors’ best estimate forecasts for the financial performance of the STB Group for the six months ending 30 June 2015;

  • the pro forma adjustments, in particular, the IPO and the acquisition of Australia Skydive which is assumed to occur on 1 April 2015, as described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus (the pro forma adjustments); and

  • The directors’ best estimate forecasts for financial performance for the year ending 30 June 2016 assuming the acquisition of Australia Skydive occurs as at 1 April 2015.

The directors’ best-estimate assumptions underlying the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts are described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus

The stated basis of preparation used in the preparation of the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts is the recognition and measurement principles contained in Australian Auditing Standards applied to the forecast and, to the extent described in Section 7, the events and transactions to which the pro forma adjustments relate as if those events and transactions had occurred on the stated dates. Accordingly, and due to its nature and basis of preparation, the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts do not represent the Company’s actual prospective financial performance for the years ending 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2016.

INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

The STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts are presented in the Replacement Prospectus in an abbreviated form, insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Auditing Standards applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 .

Directors’ responsibility

The directors of the STB Group are responsible for:

  • the preparation and presentation of the Historical Financial Information;

  • the preparation and presentation of the STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information, including the selection and determination of pro forma adjustments made to the historical financial information and included in the pro forma historical financial information; and

  • the preparation of the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts, including the best estimate assumptions underlying the forecast and the selection and determination of pro forma adjustments made to the forecast and included in the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts.

This directors are responsible for such internal controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the Historical Financial Information, the Pro Forma Historical Financial Information and the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a limited assurance conclusion on the Historical Financial Information, the STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information and the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts (together, the STB Group financial information) based on the procedures performed and the evidence we have obtained. We have conducted our engagement in accordance with the Standard on Assurance Engagements ASAE 3450 Assurance Engagements involving Corporate Fundraisings and / or Prospective Financial Information .

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

Our engagement did not involve updating or re-issuing any previously issued audit or review report on any financial information used as a source of the financial information.

Conclusions

Historical Financial Information

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Historical Financial Information, as described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus, and comprising:  the Statement of Financial Performance of the Aggregated Historical Group for the year ended 30 June 2014; and  the Statement of Financial Performance of the STB Group for the six months ended 31 December 2014. are not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with the stated basis of preparation, as described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus.

INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the STB Group Pro Forma Historical Financial Information, being the pro forma statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014 is not presented fairly in all material respects, in accordance with the stated basis of preparation as described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus.

STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that:

  • the directors’ best-estimate assumptions used in the preparation of the STB Group’s Pro Forma Forecasts for the years ending 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2016 do not provide reasonable grounds for the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts; and

  • in all material respects, the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts:

  • are not prepared on the basis of the directors’ best-estimate assumptions, as described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus; and

  • are not presented fairly in accordance with the stated basis of preparation, being the recognition and measurement principles contained in Australian Auditing Standards and the company’s adopted accounting policies, applied to the forecast and the pro forma adjustments as if those adjustments had occurred as at the date of the forecast; and

  • the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts are unreasonable.

Important information in relation to the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts

The STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts have been prepared by management and adopted by the directors of the STB Group in order to provide prospective investors with a guide to the potential financial performance of the STB Group for the periods ending 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2016.

There is a considerable degree of subjective judgement involved in preparing forecasts since they relate to events and transactions that have not yet occurred and may not occur. Actual results are likely to be different from the STB Pro Forma Forecasts since anticipated events or transactions frequently do not occur as expected and the variation may be material.

The directors’ best-estimate assumptions on which the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts are based relate to future events and/or transactions which management expect to occur and actions that management expect to take and are also subject to uncertainties and contingencies, which are often outside the control of the STB Group.

Evidence may be available to support the directors’ best-estimate assumptions on which the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts are based however such evidence is generally future-oriented and therefore speculative in nature. We are therefore not in a position to express a reasonable assurance conclusion on those best-estimate assumptions, and accordingly, provide a lesser level of assurance on the reasonableness of the directors’ best-estimate assumptions. The limited assurance conclusion expressed in this report has been formed on the above basis.

Prospective investors should be aware of the material risks and uncertainties in relation to an investment in the STB Group, which are detailed at section 10 of the Replacement Prospectus, and the inherent uncertainty relating to the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts. Accordingly, prospective investors should have regard to the investment risks and sensitivities as described in the Replacement Prospectus. The sensitivity analysis described in section 7 of the Replacement Prospectus demonstrates the impact on the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts of changes in certain best-estimate assumptions.

We express no opinion as to whether the STB Group Pro Forma Forecasts will be achieved.

ANTHONY BOUCAUT Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer

Anthony has over 20 years’ experience in the skydiving industry and over 25 years’ experience in the aviation industry. The “Skydive the Beach” concept and vision was the result of Anthony’s passion for skydiving and love of sharing extreme adventures with others. During his final year of university, Anthony formed a business known as “Adrenalin Sports Skydiving”, which became “Skydive the Beach”. The first tandem skydives over North Wollongong beach were conducted in July 1999.

During Anthony’s six years in the military, he completed an aviation trade and went on to perform aviation electronic engineering duties. This aviation experience played a critical part in the establishment of the “Skydive the Beach” business. A qualified pilot, Anthony not only oversees and guides the business generally, but also oversees the aircraft and aircraft maintenance departments of the business.

Since Anthony started the “Skydive the Beach” business in 1999, jump numbers, income and profit have shown strong growth every year. Anthony has a proven track record in the delivery of targets and cost efficiencies, and has now built a key team around him, which allows him to drive the vision of the business on a broader scale. Anthony has experience in acquisitions and has been the driver of the business in making its key acquisitions. Anthony has been actively involved in purchasing a number of airfields through his controlled entities, which he supplies under contract to STB Group for its operations (refer to Section 13).

TIMOTHY RADFORD Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer

Timothy (Tim) has 22 years of skydiving experience. His passion for parachuting and aviation began after completing his first parachute descent at the age of 19 in the Australian Regular Army. Eight years’ service in the infantry corps saw Tim exposed to all facets of military parachuting and a love for civilian skydiving developed. Tim obtained his instructor and tandem skydiving licenses early in his career, which allowed him to transition into the commercial skydiving industry. He has worked as a skydiving instructor, both in Australia and overseas.

Tim has been involved with the Skydive the Beach business for over 10 years. He was initially engaged as a tandem instructor, and rapidly moved up the management chain, drawing on his previous small business, military and industry experience, to become Operations Manager and then General Manager, a title he has held for the past six years. He is now the Company’s Chief Operating Officer.

During his tenure as General Manager, the business grew from one to 11 skydiving locations in four Australian States. Tim has exceptional relationship building skills and a customer focus, and is a key element in meeting the needs of the business’ stakeholders.

Tim’s leadership and teamwork skills, as well as his expertise in the operational areas of a commercial skydiving business, have enabled him to become an integral member of the senior executive team for acquisition and expansion plans, past and future. Tim is a shareholder in the Company through his associated entities, a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors, and the Australian Parachute Federation.

  • Bill Beerworth, Independent Non-Executive Director and Chair

  • Anthony Boucaut, Executive Director

9.5 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

This Section explains how the Board oversees the management of the Company’s business.

The Board is responsible for the overall corporate governance of the Company, including establishing and monitoring key performance goals. The Board monitors the operational and financial position and performance of the Company and oversees its business strategy including approving the strategic goals of the Company and considering and approving an annual business plan, including a budget. The Board is committed to maximising performance, generating appropriate levels of Shareholder value and financial return, and sustaining the growth and success of the Company. In conducting the Company’s business with these objectives, the Board seeks to ensure that the Company is properly managed to protect and enhance Shareholder interests, and that the Company, its Directors, officers and personnel operate in an appropriate environment of corporate governance. Accordingly, the Board has created a framework for managing the Company, including adopting relevant internal controls, risk management processes and corporate governance policies and practices which it believes are appropriate for the Company’s business and which are designed to promote the responsible management and conduct of the Company.

The Company is seeking a listing on the ASX. The ASX Corporate Governance Council has developed and released its Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (ASX Recommendations) for Australian listed entities in order to promote investor confidence and to assist companies in meeting stakeholder expectations. The ASX Recommendations are not prescriptions, but guidelines. However, under the ASX Listing Rules, the Company will be required to provide a statement in its annual report or on its website disclosing the extent to which it

Each non-executive and independent director has confirmed to the Company that they anticipate being available to perform their duties as a non-executive director without constraint from other commitments.

The Board considers an independent director to be a non-executive director who is not a member of the Company’s management and who is free of any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with or reasonably be perceived to interfere with the independent exercise of their judgement. The Board will consider the materiality of any given relationship on a case by case basis and has adopted guidelines to assist in this regard. The Board reviews the independence of each director in light of interests disclosed to the Board from time to time.

The Board Charter has adopted a definition of independence that is based on that set out in the ASX Recommendations. The Board also considers qualitative principles of materiality for the purpose of determining “independence” on a case by case basis. The Board will consider whether there are any factors or considerations which may mean that the director’s interest, business or relationship could, or could be reasonably perceived to, materially interfere with, the director’s ability to act in the best interests of the Company.

The Board considers that Bill Beerworth is free from any business or any other relationship that could materially interfere with, or reasonably be perceived to interfere with, the independent exercise of his judgement and he is able to fulfil the role of independent non-executive director and chairman and non-executive director for the purpose of the ASX Recommendations.

The Board considers that Dr. Nigel Finch is free from any business or any other relationship that

SKYDIVE THE BEACH AND BEYOND | REPLACEMENT PROSPECTUS | 2015

BOARD AND GOVERNANCE

could materially interfere with, or reasonably be perceived to interfere with, the independent exercise of his judgement and he is able to fulfil the role of independent non-executive director for the purpose of the ASX Recommendations.

John Diddams is currently considered by the Board not to be independent as he has a contract with the Company for the provision of certain corporate advisory services to the Company (refer to section 13.2).

Anthony Boucaut is currently considered by the Board not to be independent since he holds or controls a substantial shareholding in the Company. He also has an Executive Employment Contract with the Company (refer to section 13) and is a director and/or shareholder of several entities (refer to section 11 & 13) which also have contracts with the Company or with its Subsidiaries.

Anthony Ritter is currently considered by the Board not to be independent since he has an Executive Employment Contract with the Company (refer to section 13) and is a director of Subsidiaries of the Company.

Timothy Radford is currently considered by the Board not to be independent since he has an Executive Employment Contract with the Company (refer to section 13) and is a director of Subsidiaries of the Company.

Accordingly as at Listing, the Board will consist of 50% non-executive Directors, of which 66% are independent directors for the purposes of the ASX Recommendations.

9.5.2 Board Charter

The Board Charter adopted by the Board sets out the responsibilities of the Board in greater detail. It envisages that the Board should comprise directors with a range of skills, expertise, experience and diversity which are relevant to the Company’s business and the Board’s responsibilities. The Board Charter allows the Board to delegate powers and responsibilities to committees established by the Board. The Board retains ultimate accountability to Shareholders in discharging its duties.

management’s implementation of such strategy and achievement of such targets;

  • (e) monitoring the Company’s compliance with applicable laws, the Board Charter, and generally accepted standards of corporate conduct and governance prevailing from time to time;

  • (f) reviewing and overseeing the operation of systems of risk management and internal compliance and control, codes of ethics and conduct;

  • (g) adopting the annual budget and monitoring the financial performance of the Company;

  • (j) ensuring there is timely and effective reporting to shareholders; and

  • (k) monitoring industry developments relevant to the Company’s business.

These formal responsibilities will be reviewed regularly to determine whether changes are necessary or desirable. The Board reserves the right to expand the scope of its role beyond those matters listed above if the Board considers it necessary in the interests of the Company.

9.5.4 Role of management

Beyond those matters listed above, the Board has delegated responsibility and authority for the management, operation and administration of the Company and for the performance of the strategic plan, to the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer and Chief Financial Officer. This includes the power to delegate responsibilities and authority to senior management.

9.6 BOARD COMMITTEES

The Board Committee compositions given below are current at the time of this Prospectus. Membership is reviewed annually by the Board.

9.6.1 Audit and Risk Committee

9.5.3 Role of the Board

The Board has reserved the following matters, in addition to those required by law, for its decision:

  • (a) composition of the Board itself, including the appointment and retirement of Directors;

  • (b) appointment and removal of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer and the Chief Financial Officer and ratifying the appointment or removal of Senior Executives (being those persons who report directly to the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer and the Chief Financial Officer) and of the Company Secretary;

  • (c) determining the conditions of service of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and senior management and the performance monitoring procedures to apply to them;

  • (d) in consultation with management, determining the Company’s business strategy and key performance targets and then monitoring

The role of the Audit and Risk Committee is to assist the Board to meet its oversight responsibilities in relation to the Company’s financial reporting systems, the systems of internal control and risk management and internal and external audit functions. In fulfilling these roles, the Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for maintaining free and open communication between the Board, itself, management and auditors.

The Audit and Risk Committee provides advice to the Board and reports on the status and management of the risks to the Company. The purpose of the committee’s risk management process is to assist the Board in relation to risk management policies, procedures and systems and ensure that risks are identified, assessed and appropriately managed.

The Board has adopted a policy regarding the services that the Company may obtain from its auditor; It is the policy of the Company that its external auditor:

BOARD AND GOVERNANCE

  1. Must lack any current or past connection or association with the Company or with any member of senior management which could in any way impair, or be seen to carry with it any risk of impairing, the independent external review the external auditor is required to take in relation to the Company;

  2. Benefit from a general reputation for independence and probity and profession standing within the business community; and

  3. Possess knowledge of the industry within which the Company operates.

The Audit and Risk Committee Charter provides that the committee will comprise at least three members each of whom, if appropriate, are nonexecutive directors and a majority of whom, if appropriate, are independent. The chair of the committee shall be an independent non-executive director who does not chair the Board.

The Audit and Risk Committee will meet as often as is required by the Audit and Risk Committee Charter or other policy approved by the Board to govern the operations of the Audit and Risk Committee. The Audit and Risk Committee may seek advice from external advisers and invite the external auditor, any internal auditor, any other non-executive director, executive or employee of the Company and any other person to be present at the meetings of the Audit and Risk Committee. The Audit and Risk Committee will regularly report to the Board about committee activities, issues and related recommendations.

The Committee currently comprises Dr. Nigel Finch (Chair), John Diddams and Bill Beerworth. The Board acknowledges ASX Recommendation 4.2 that a majority of the members of an audit committee should be independent directors. Whilst there are three non-executive directors on the Audit and Risk Committee, only two of those directors are classified as “independent” directors. The Board believes that the current members of the committee are the most appropriate to achieve its objectives (having regard to their experience and skills) and that each member will bring independent judgement to the Audit and Risk Committee’s deliberations.

9.6.2 Remuneration and Nomination Committee

The role of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee is to review and make recommendations to the Board on remuneration packages and policies related to the Directors and senior executives and to ensure that the remuneration policies and practices are consistent with the Company’s strategic goals and human resources objectives. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is also responsible for reviewing and making recommendations in relation to the composition and performance of the Board and its committees and ensuring that adequate succession plans are in place (including for the recruitment and appointment of Directors and senior management). Independent advice will be sought where appropriate.

The Remuneration and Nomination Committee will meet as often as is required by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee Charter or other policy approved by the Board to govern the operation of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee. At each meeting, the Remuneration and Nomination

Committee will consider whether any significant matters should be brought to the attention of the Board and the Remuneration and Nomination Committee will endeavour to raise these matters

in a form and timeframe that assists the Board to discharge their duties effectively.

The committee currently comprises of Bill Beerworth (Chair), Dr. Nigel Finch and John Diddams. The Board acknowledges ASX Recommendation 2.4 that a majority of the members of Remuneration and Nomination committee should be independent directors.

Whilst there are three non-executive directors on the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, only two of those directors are classified as “independent” directors. The Board believes that the current members of the committee are the most appropriate to achieve its objectives (having regard to their experience and skills) and that each member will bring independent judgement to the Remuneration and Nomination Committee’s deliberations.

INVESTMENT RISKS

10.1 INTRODUCTION

Due to the nature of the Company’s products or services, the Directors believe that an investment in the Shares remains speculative at this stage. You should carefully consider the risks involved in acquiring the Shares, including those risks described below and all of the other information set out in this Prospectus before deciding to invest in the Shares. If any of the events or developments described below occurs, the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected. In that case, the market price of the Shares could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. You should note that on quotation of the Shares on the Official List, the market price may differ significantly to the Offer Price paid for the Shares. As with any equity investment, substantial fluctuations in the value of that investment may and often do occur.

This Section 10, which is not exhaustive of risks, identifies the risks that the Directors regard as the major risks associated with the Company’s business and the industry in which it operates and the risks associated with an investment in the Shares. You should read the entire Prospectus (with particular emphasis on this Section) before any decision is made to subscribe for the Shares.

The Directors are of the opinion that the funds being sought will enable the Company to capitalise on the next phase of activity however if you are considering an investment in the Company, you are also strongly advised to consider whether the Shares are a suitable investment having regard to your personal investment objectives and financial circumstances (and the risk factors set out in this Section 10). If you are in any doubt about the suitability of an investment in the Company, you should consult with your financial adviser, stockbroker, solicitor, accountant or other professional adviser before deciding whether to apply for the Shares.

10.2 COMPANY SPECIFIC RISKS

Risks specific to the Company’s business and the industry in which it operates:

Company-Specific Risks

TYPE OF RISK DESCRIPTION OF RISK
Acquisition risk The Offer is aimed at raising sufficient funds for the Company to complete its
acquisition of Australia Skydive (refer to Sections 6 & 12) so that it may expand
its business by adding a further 5 drop zones to its existing 11 drop zones
around Australia. There can be no guarantee that the conditions precedent
to the completion of that transaction will be met or waived. There can be no
guarantee that the Company will be able to achieve the revenue or profits
from its business, including the Australia Skydive business, within the currently
proposed timelines, or within the proposed budget.
Liquidity risk Investment is only being sought for a minority stake in the Company as
Existing Shareholders will hold between 71 - 83% of the Shares. Accordingly,
there is a significant liquidity risk, particularly as those 71 - 83% of the Shares
will be escrowed for 24 months.
Dilution risk There is future dilution risk to minority Shareholders should the Company seek
to raise further equity funds.
Reputation risk The success of the Company is dependent on it maintaining a positive
reputation. Unforeseen issues or events which place the reputation of the
Company at risk may impact on future earnings and growth prospect.
Investors should be aware that the activities undertaken by the STB Group are
inherently risky and any adverse event may impact the Company’s reputation.
Development risk Whilst the Company was incorporated on 19 December 2013, the businesses it
acquired on 1 July 2014 from entities in the Aggregated Historical Group (refer
to Sections 7 and 8) have significant operating history. The prospects of the
Company must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties
frequently encountered by companies in development and expansion of an
existing business.
There are a number of risks facing the Company in the execution of its
business strategy. While the Directors are of the view that there are plans in
place to ensure these risks are mitigated, these factors may still impact upon
investor returns.
Competition and It is possible that other entities in Australia and around the world may be
sensitivity trying to compete with the Company. The Company cannot guarantee that a
competitor will not reduce the Company’s market share or margins through
competitive businesses or strategies.
As set out in Section 7.7.2, the Company’s financial performance is sensitive to
a number of variables, which variables (both positive and negative) may arise
as a result of competition or otherwise.

10
INVESTMENT
RISKS
TYPE OF RISK
DESCRIPTION OF RISK
Funding
The ability of the Company to effectively implement and expand its business
plan over time may depend, in part, on its ability to raise additional funds
as required. The Company and the Directors give no assurances that any
equity or debt funding will be available to the Company, or be available on
acceptable terms.
Weather
The ability of the Company to provide its skydiving services is weather
dependent in that jumps will not proceed in winds in excess of 25 knots (43
kms/hour). Sustained heavy rain will also affect timing and ability to jump.
Whilst every effort is made to maximise the number of jumps per day, safety
of the customers is of paramount importance and cancellation or
postponement of scheduled jumps may affect revenue and profitability,
notwithstanding that a certain level of “adverse weather factor” is built into
the budgets and forecasts.
Reliance on Board
Members and Key
Management
The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic
management of the Company depends substantially on its Board of Directors,
senior management and key personnel. There can be no assurance given that
there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these
personnel cease their employment or engagement with the Company.
While every effort is made to retain key personnel, and to recruit new
personnel as the need arises, the loss of one or more key personnel
may adversely affect the Company’s development plans, earnings or
growth prospects.
Drop zone leases
The STB Group does not own any real estate and leases all of its drop zone
sites, with 3 of the STB Group’s 11 existing drop zone sites being leased from
companies associated with Mr Anthony Boucaut, an executive Director and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
There is a risk that the Company’s operations and financial performance may
be adversely affected in the event that any drop zone leases were not renewed
in the future.
Equipment
The Company business has significant reliance on its aircraft, parachutes
and associated parachute equipment, vehicles and systems necessary for
tandem skydiving and from time to time may incur significant expenditure
on equipment and systems upgrades and maintenance. The Company’s
equipment and systems are an essential part of the successful running of its
day to day business and as such any interruptions to one or more of these
equipment or systems could impair the ability of the Company to service
its clients.
Maintenance, repair, backup and restoration procedures are in place, however
a natural disaster or other unforeseen event that results in a loss of use of, or
access to, the Company’s equipment or systems, the loss or corruption of data
or the inability of the Company to service its clients could have a negative
impact on the Company’s performance.
Relationship with
suppliers and lessors
The Company contracts with third parties to provide certain goods
and services including hangars, runways and some aircraft and including
leases of all of its existing 11 drop zone sites (3 of those leases being from
companies associated with Mr Anthony Boucaut, an executive Director
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company). The ongoing relationship
management with its suppliers is important to the ongoing success of the
Company’s business. Failure to maintain such relationships with its suppliers
and certifiers in the future may lead to termination of any of the supply
contracts or lease agreements and provide opportunities for competitors to
gain a competitive advantage, and may have other adverse effects such as
lessening the ability of the Company to service its customers which may have
an adverse effect on the Company’s earnings and growth prospects.
Government and
legal risk
Changes in government, fiscal, monetary environmental, taxation, regulatory
policies and other laws may also affect the business of the Company. The
market in which the Company provides products and services is anticipated to
become subject to increasing regulation. Changes to the regulatory framework
could impact on the industry generally and have an adverse impact on the
financial position, performance, assets and operations of the Company.

INVESTMENT
RISKS
TYPE OF RISK
DESCRIPTION OF RISK
Aviation permits
The Company’s operations rely upon the availability of aircraft it either owns
or sources from Subsidiaries or external suppliers from time to time. Some of
the Company’s Subsidiaries are appointed the registered operator by CASA
for aircraft it owns. The Company and Related Parties endeavour to meet
all CASA operational requirements and flight standard approvals, There is
no guarantee that each of the aircraft will continue to meet the appropriate
CASA flight approvals and standards at all times. CASA may issue changes
to the flight approvals and standards from time to time and the resultant
changes may require the installation of additional equipment, modifications,
additional costs and time to resolve or comply, Flight approval changes may
result in particular locations not being able to be operated whilst complying
with any regulation change. If this circumstance arises this could impact on the
Company’s proposed future sales of skydiving and related products and would
negatively impact future revenue generation.
Growth Management
The Company’s success is dependent upon the successful management
and execution of its growth strategy. To manage this growth effectively,
the Company will need to maintain efficient control and supervision of its
operations and financial systems and continue to expand, train and manage its
employees and secure new appropriate skilled employees. Further to this, the
Company will need to keep abreast of new and developing technology. There
is a risk that the Company may not be able to execute its growth strategies.
In particular, the Company’s growth strategy depends upon its ability to
continue to maintain and grow generic earnings as well as identify and make
suitable acquisitions that are revenue and profit accretive.
Taxation
Changes in tax law, or changes in the way taxation laws are interpreted
may impact the tax liabilities of the Company or the tax treatment of
a Shareholder’s investment. In particular, both the level and basis of
taxation may change. In addition, an investment in the Shares involves tax
considerations which may differ for each Shareholder. Each prospective
Shareholder is encouraged to seek professional tax advice in connection with
any investment in the Company.
Regulatory risk
The Company is subject to a range of regulatory controls imposed by
government and regulatory authorities (for example, ASX, ASIC and CASA).
The relevant regulatory regimes are complex and are subject to change over
time depending on changes in the laws and the policies of the governments
and regulatory authorities. The Company is exposed to the risk of changes
to the applicable laws and/or the interpretation of existing laws which may
have a negative effect on the Company, its investments and/or returns to
Shareholders or the risks associated with non-compliance with these laws
(including reporting or other legal obligations). Non-compliance may result in
financial penalties being levied against the Company.
Dividend risk
The Company has not to date paid any dividend. There is no certainty that the
Company will pay dividends in the future.
Insurance
The operation of a skydiving business involves hazards and risks that could
result in the Company incurring losses or liabilities that could arise from
its operations. The STB Group’s parachuting operations at each of its drop
zones are covered by public liability insurance provided to all members of
the APF as part of membership fees paid by the STB Group to the APF. The
public liability insurance provided with membership of the APF responds in
relation to negligent damage caused to third party person or property whilst
participating in parachuting activity under the auspices of APF.
If the Company incurs losses or liabilities which are not covered by the
insurance policies provided by the APF, the funds available for working capital
and/or revenue growth opportunities may be reduced.
The Company has, and intends to maintain, insurance of its assets and
operations in accordance with industry practice through its own insurance
policies. However, the occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully
covered by these insurance policies could have a material adverse effect on
the business, financial condition and results of the Company.
Loss of goodwill
There is an inherent risk of loss of business goodwill in the event of an
accident occuring involving the STB Group or any of its operations.

shareholders retain a capital of the Company if the Minimum Subscription is reached, 71% of the
significant stake issued capital of the Company if the Maximum Subscription is reached
and 66% if the full amount of $5 million in oversubscriptions is received
and accepted (excluding shares that Existing Shareholders may hold upon
exercise of Options – refer to Sections 12 & 14), 193,369,700 of the existing
Shares, representing 100% of the issued capital of the Company pre listing,
will be subject to escrow restrictions for a period of 24 months following the
Company’s Listing on ASX. Following the lifting of escrow restrictions there
is no restriction on the sale of any of the Shares released and shareholders
are able to sell those Shares as they deem appropriate. These Shareholders
may not be long term holders of the Shares and a significant sale of Shares by
some or all of the Existing Shareholders, or the perception that such sales have
occurred or might occur, could adversely affect the price of Shares.
Alternatively, the absence of any sale of Shares by the Existing Shareholders
may cause or contribute to a diminution in the liquidity of the market for
the Shares.
Liquidity and There is no guarantee that the Shares will trade at a particular price or
IPO Risk a particular volume after the Company’s Listing on the ASX. There is no
guarantee that there will be an ongoing liquid market for Shares. Accordingly
there is a risk that, should the market for shares become illiquid, Shareholders
will be unable to realise their investment in the Company.
Dilution The Company may need to raise additional funds through a further capital
raising or debt facility at some time in the future after the conclusion of capital
raising being undertaken under this Prospectus. Any such further capital
raising is likely to have the effect of diluting the interests of Shareholders.
Litigation In the ordinary course of its business, the Company may be subject to
the risk of litigation and other disputes with its employees, consultants,
lessors, regulators and other third parties. Proceedings may result in high
legal costs, adverse monetary judgments and/or damage to the Company’s
reputation, which ultimately is likely to have an adverse effect on the financial
performance of the Company.
Offer not fully The Directors give no assurances that the objectives of the Company outlined
subscribed in this Prospectus will be met. The Offer described in this Prospectus is
intended to raise sufficient funds to fund the acquisition and working capital
needs of the Company (refer to Sections 2 and 11). In the event the Offer as
described in the Prospectus is not fully subscribed, the Company may scale
back its objectives and operations, including marketing and other expenditure.
Financial The operating results are difficult to predict and are subject to a number
performance factors as detailed above. There can be no guarantee that the Company
will achieve its stated objectives or that any forward-looking statements
will eventuate.
General economic The performance of the Company, in common with other companies, is
risks subject to general economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation
rates, prevailing global commodity prices and currency exchange rates that
may have an adverse effect on the Company’s activities, as well as its ability to
fund those activities.
Further, share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s
quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share
market conditions can be affected by many market factors such as:

General economic outlook;

Interest rates and inflation rates;

Currency fluctuations; and

Changes in investor sentiment.

On 10 December 2014, Skydive the Beach and Beyond Sydney Wollongong Pty Ltd (being a fully held subsidiary of the Company) entered into a Share Sale Deed as the “Purchaser”, under which the Purchaser has agreed to buy (or cause its nominee to buy) 4,000,000 ordinary shares each fully paid (being all of the issued share capital) in Australia Skydive Pty Ltd ABN 14 134 382 004 (“ Australia Skydive ”) from the existing shareholders of Australia Skydive (“Vendor”), subject to certain preconditions being satisfied or waived.

At the time of entry into the Share Sale Deed, Australia Skydive was the parent company having a number of Related Bodies Corporate operating its Business (as defined in the Share Sale Deed) (Australia Skydive and its Related Bodies Corporates being the “Skydive Australia Group” as defined in the Share Sale Deed). The Share Sale Deed requires, as one of the conditions precedent to Completion, that the Skydive Australia Group undergo a “Restructure” (as defined in the Share Sale Deed) such that the various Related Bodies Corporates of Australia Skydive must transfer all of the relevant assets of the Skydive Australia Group and its business to Australia Skydive, and Australian Skydive must thereafter transfer to third parties all of the shares it holds in those Related Bodies Corporate, with the result that Australia Skydive shall own all of the relevant assets of the Skydive Australia Group and its business and have no subsidiary or Related Bodies Corporate in which it holds shares following the “Restructure”. Subject to the other preconditions being satisfied or waived, provided the “Restructure” is completed prior to Completion as set out in the Share Sale Deed, the Purchaser shall acquire Australia Skydive and the business formerly conducted by the “Skydive Australia Group” and all relevant assets owned and utilised in that business.

The purchase price for the Proposed Acquisition is $11,700,000, payable as follows:

  • (a) Non-refundable Initial Deposit (already paid upon execution of the Share Sale Deed: $400,000

  • (b) Non-refundable Final Deposit (already paid as at the date of this Prospectus) in accordance with the Share Sale Deed: $200,000

  • (c) Initial Consideration: $7,800,000 The Initial Consideration is payable to the Vendor upon Completion as follows:

  • i. $7,400,000 to the Vendor; and

  • ii. $400,000 into an Escrow Account to be dealt with in accordance with the terms of the Share Sale Deed. The $400,000

paid upon Completion into the Escrow Account is payable to the Vendor postCompletion upon the terms of an Escrow Deed dated 10 December 2014 entered into by the Purchaser and the Vendor parties. The release to the Vendor of the sum of $400,000 paid on Completion into the Escrow Account is subject to certain adjustments based on Completion Accounts to be prepared in accordance with the terms of the Share Sale Deed post-Completion.

(d) Vendor Finance Amount: $3,300,000

The Share Sale Deed provides for certain adjustments to be made to the Vendor Finance Amount which could increase or decrease the sum of the Vendor Finance Amount.

The Vendor Finance Amount is the subject of a Loan Agreement to be entered into on Completion between the Vendor parties and the Purchaser under which the Vendor parties will agree to provide a Facility Amount of a total of $3,300,000 to the Purchaser (subject to adjustment pursuant to the Share Sale Deed). Interest is payable at 6% per annum on the Facility Amount outstanding from time to time, and interest is payable in arrears monthly on each Advance. The Facility Amount of $3,300,000 together with accrued interest is repayable in full to the Vendor no later than the date that is 3 years from the date of the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement and the Facility Amount will be secured by:

  • i. A second ranking security interest over all the assets and undertaking of Australian Skydive (as governed by the terms and conditions of a General Security Deed to be entered into by Australia Skydive as the grantor and the Vendor as the grantee and effective upon completion of the Loan Agreement) (provided however that such security shall be first ranking in relation to Aircraft VH-DVS). Financial assistance consents may be required pursuant to the Corporations Act; and

  • ii. A second ranking security over all of the ordinary shares in Australia Skydive acquired by the Purchaser (as governed by the terms and conditions of a Specific Security Deed to be entered into by the Purchaser as the grantor and the Vendor as the grantee and effective upon completion of the Loan Agreement).

The obligation of the Vendor to provide the Vendor Finance Amount of $3,300,000 to the Purchaser is subject to conditions precedent as set out in the Loan Agreement, including but not limited to the condition precedent that Completion occurs with respect to the Share Sale Deed.

In addition, at Completion, the Purchaser will assume up to $3,000,000 of debt (or such lower figure as is actually outstanding at Completion of the Share Sale Deed) owed by Australian Skydive to the ANZ Bank in relation to four aircraft, one aircraft engine, and a motor vehicle.

Completion of the Share Sale Deed, including the obligation to pay the Initial Consideration and the Vendor Finance Amount components of the purchase price for the Proposed Acquisition, are subject to prior satisfaction or waiver of Conditions Precedent including but not limited

MATERIAL CONTRACTS

to the Purchaser securing the finance required to undertake the transaction the subject of the Share Sale Deed.

Either party may terminate the Share Sale Deed prior to Completion if Conditions Precedent stated in the Share Sale Deed to be to their respective benefit are not met. Accordingly, if (for example), the Purchaser is unable to secure the finance required to pay the Initial Consideration no later than 31 March 2015 (or such later date as agreed), the Share Sale Deed may be terminated by the Purchaser and the Proposed Acquisition may not proceed. As at the date of this Prospectus, the right of the Vendor to terminate the Share Sale Deed for failure of Conditions Precedent in its favour are limited to a breach of the Purchaser’s limited warranties regarding such matters as its corporate status to enter into the Share Sale Deed and ancillary agreements, or in the event the Purchaser breaches the Share Sale Deed.

Each party has rights to terminate the Share Sale Deed prior to Completion upon the occurrence of certain events set out in the Share Sale Deed. Upon termination, each party is released from its continuing obligations under the Share Sale Deed and the ancillary agreements to the Share Sale Deed will also terminate.

The Share Sale Deed contains indemnities by the Vendor in favour of the Purchaser and warranties in relation to the affairs of Australia Skydive and its Related Bodies Corporate and Related Entities. The Purchaser shall have 3 years after the Completion Date (or in the case of any Tax Claim, 5 years after the Completion Date), to make a claim against the Vendor for breach of any representation, warranty or obligation under the Share Sale Deed, however no claim is payable in relation to claims which, when aggregated with all other claims under the Share Sale Deed and the ancillary agreements to the Share Sale Deed results in a total of all claims exceeding $14,700,000 (other than in the case of fraud or dishonesty by the Vendor).

The obligations of the Vendor under the Share Sale Deed and the ancillary agreements to the Share Sale Deed are personally guaranteed by each Vendor party or their controllers. The liability of the Guarantors shall not exceed the Vendor’s liability in respect of any particular obligation.

Any amounts paid to the Purchaser pursuant to any claim the subject of a Warranty (as defined in the Share Sale Deed) shall be effective as a corresponding deduction in the purchase price.

The Share Sale Deed contains provisions restraining the Vendor (and the Guarantors) from competing in Australia with the Business (as defined in the Share Sale Deed) being acquired by the Purchaser.

On 28 November 2014, following confidential discussions between the Company’s Directors and the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (“ACCC”), the ACCC issued a letter confirming that based on the information provided by the Company to the ACCC in its submission to the ACCC dated 19 November 2014, the ACCC does not intend to conduct a public review of the Proposed Acquisition pursuant to section 50 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010.

12.5 RULES OF THE SHARE OPTION PLAN

The Board has adopted the “STB Share Option Plan” (“ Plan ”). The Plan is designed to:

  • Attract, reward, retain and incentivise eligible participants;

  • Establish a method by which eligible participants can participate in the future growth and profitability of the Company; and

  • Recognise the ongoing ability of eligible participants and their expected efforts and

  • contribution to the performance and success of the Company.

The Plan relates to the grant of:

  • (a) Options to subscribe for Shares in the Company, subject to satisfaction of any vesting conditions and payment of the exercise price; and

  • (b) Performance Rights entitling the holder to Shares in the Company, subject to satisfaction of any vesting conditions.

The Board may from time to time, in its absolute discretion, offer to grant Performance Rights and/ or Options to eligible participants under the Plan and upon such additional terms, including vesting conditions (if any) as the Board determines.

Each Option may be issued for no consideration and will carry the right in favour of the Option holder to subscribe for one Share. Unless the Board otherwise determines, Performance Rights will be granted for no consideration in relation to the grant or vesting of a Performance Right.

Any Shares issued under the Plan upon vesting of a Performance Right or exercise of an Option will rank equally in all respects with other Shares for the time being on issue. If the Company is listed on the ASX, the Company will apply for quotation of Shares issued under the Plan within the period required by ASX.

Eligible Participants

Employees and Directors of the Company, or any other person determined by the Board from time to time, are entitled to participate in the Plan but, after the Company is listed, any grant to a NonExecutive Director must first be approved by the shareholders. The Board may grant Performance Rights and/or Options (as applicable) in the name of the eligible participant (or his/her nominee company) and unless the Board determines otherwise, they may not be registered in any name other than the eligible participant (or his/ her nominee).

Restriction on Grants under the Plan

The maximum number of Performance Rights and Options that may be granted under the Plan will be determined by the Board from time to time, so long that the number determined by the Board does not exceed any limit specified, imposed or calculated by any relevant policy or guideline of ASIC.

Terms

The terms of Performance Rights and Options issued under the Plan will be set out in the invitation to participate sent to the eligible participant.

Lapse

Options and Performance Rights shall lapse on the earlier of:

  • The expiry date specified at time of grant;

  • The period of ten years from and including the date of issue of the Option or grant of the Performance Right;

SKYDIVE THE BEACH AND BEYOND | REPLACEMENT PROSPECTUS | 2015

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT DOCUMENT 92

12

MATERIAL CONTRACTS

  • 60 days after a participant ceases to be an employee for any reason, unless the Board determines within that 60 day period that any Performance Rights and/or Options vest in circumstances of total and permanent disability or death or other circumstances as the Board may determine; and

  • A determination by the Directors that the participant has acted fraudulently, dishonestly or in breach of their obligations to the Company.

Takeover and Scheme of Arrangement

In the event of a takeover bid, any Performance Rights or Options granted will vest automatically if the vesting conditions have been satisfied pro rata.

Adjustments

Prior to the issue of Shares under the Plan, the Board may make adjustments as it considers appropriate to minimise or eliminate any material advantage or disadvantage to a participant resulting from corporate action such as a capital raising or capital reconstruction. For example, if the Company undertakes a pro rata bonus or rights issue, or any reorganisation of the Company’s issued capital, the number of Performance Rights or Options, or the number of Shares to which a participant is entitled upon vesting (and exercise in the case of Options), will be adjusted in the manner determined by the Board, having regard to the Listing Rules.

Management of the Plan

The Plan is administered by the Board which may determine appropriate procedures for administration of the Plan consistent with the Plan Rules and delegate to any one or more persons for such period and on such conditions as it may determine the exercise of any of its powers or discretions under the Plan.

The rights attaching to Shares are detailed in the Company’s Constitution which may be inspected during normal business hours at the Company’s registered office. The following is a summary of the material provisions of the Constitution and the privileges and restrictions attaching to Shares. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders.

  • Voting

  • Subject to any restriction on voting imposed by the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy, attorney or representative at a meeting of Shareholders has one vote on a show of hands and, on a poll, one vote for every Share held. A poll may be demanded by the chairperson of the meeting, any five Shareholders present (or their proxy, attorney or representative) entitled to vote on the resolution or a Shareholder or Shareholders present who together hold at least 5% of the votes that may be cast on the resolution on a poll.

  • General Meetings Each Shareholder is entitled to receive the amount of notice required by the Corporations Act for general meetings of the Company.

  • Dividends

  • Dividends are payable out of the Company’s profits and may be declared by the Directors without confirmation at a general meeting.

  • Transfer of Shares A Shareholder may transfer Shares by a proper transfer effected in accordance with any computerised or electronic system established or recognised by ASX or the Corporations Act for the purpose of facilitating transfers in Shares or by an instrument in writing in any usual form or any other form approved by the Directors. The Directors may refused to register a transfer of Shares where the refusal to register the transfer is permitted under the ASX Listing Rules.

Any further Shares issued by Directors may have preferred, deferred or other special rights or special restrictions in relation to dividends, voting, return of capital or otherwise as the Directors deem fit.

  • Winding Up

Subject to any special or preferential rights attaching to any class or classes of Shares, on a winding up of the Company a liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Shareholders, divide among the Shareholders the whole or any part of the Company’s assets and, for that purpose, determine how he or she will carry out the division between the different classes of Shareholders, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any Shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability. The liquidator may with, the sanction of a special resolution of the Shareholders, vest the whole or any part of the assets in trust for the benefit of contributories as the liquidator thinks fit.

The quorum for a meeting of Directors is three Directors.

At every annual general meeting one third of the Directors must retire from office. A director must retire from office at the conclusion of the third annual general meeting after which the Director was elected or re-elected.

  • Shareholder Liability

  • Fully paid Shares are not subject to any call for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture. However, partly paid Shares are subject to calls on the holders by Directors for any money unpaid on them. Subject to the ASX Listing Rules, the Company has a lien on every partly paid Share and dividends payable in respect of such Shares. Partly paid Shares may be forfeited for failure to pay the unpaid amount.

  • Alteration to the Constitution In accordance with the Corporations Act, the Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of the Shareholders present and voting at a general meeting. The Company must give at least 28 days written notice of its intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution.

  • ASX Listing Rules On admission to the Official List, not withstanding anything in the Constitution, if the ASX Listing Rules prohibit an act being done, the act must not be done. If the ASX Listing Rules require an act to be done or not to be done, and if a provision is required in the Constitution by the ASX Listing Rules the Constitution will be treated as containing that provision. If any provision of the Constitution becomes inconsistent with the ASX Listing Rules, the Constitution will be treated as not containing that provision to the extent of the inconsistency.

  • Directors

  • The number of Directors of the Company is to be not less than three but no more than ten. Subject to the Corporations Act, the Company may by resolution passed at general meeting increase the minimum number of Directors or increase or decrease the maximum number of Directors.

The Directors are entitled to be remunerated for their services as Directors and the total amount or value of the remuneration must not exceed, for non-executive Directors, an aggregate maximum of $500,000 per annum or such other amount determined by the Company at general meeting from time to time. This amount does not include the remuneration payable to any Executive Director.

The Directors may appoint one or more of the Board to be the Managing Director for such period and on such terms as they see fit.

  • Directors’ Indemnity

  • To the extent permitted by law, each Director and officer of the Company is entitled to be indemnified out of the Company’s property for any liability incurred by the person in that capacity and reasonable legal costs incurred in connection with proceedings in which the person becomes involved because of that capacity.
