The Board has resolved to pay a 0.5 cent per share fully franked dividend representing a payout ratio of approximately 27% of NPAT. The Board expects continuing growth and the ability to increase future dividends as well as the payout ratio.

Dividend Reinvestment Plans

During the period from 1[st] July 2010 to 30[th] June 2011, LaserBond Limited had no Dividend Reinvestment plans in operation. However a Dividend Reinvestment plan will be offered with these dividends, and at the discretion of the Board, for future dividends.

Brief Explanation of Results:

The Board is pleased with the 27.4% increase to consolidated revenue and 159% increase to Net Profit Attributable to Members for the year.

  • The NSW division continues to achieve strong results with 38% increase in revenue, and a 78% increase in EBIT compared to FY 2010. The recent purchase of equipment from C&B Engineering and other planned investments for 2011-2012 will only strengthen the results of the business for the future. The Board expects continued growth from the NSW division for the 2012 and future financial years.

  • The Queensland division after delivering profits for the second half has achieved an EBIT of $81,657 in comparison to the EBIT loss of <$484,936> for FY 2010. The improved results for the second half of FY 2011 indicate the strong return of economic activity in the Central Queensland region. The growth provided from the installation of LaserBond’s core surface engineering technologies will improve these results further for the 2012 and future financial years.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

On behalf of the Board I am pleased to present the annual Financial Report for the year ended 30[th] June 2011.

The consolidated business has achieved excellent results for the current fiscal year. This is most evident with the continued strong performance in NSW resulting in a $2.1 million EBITDA and the turnaround of our Gladstone division from a loss last fiscal year of $<484,936> to $167,881 EBITDA. The consolidated divisions have produced revenue of $13.3 million and $2.3 million EBITDA for the year.

This fiscal year enabled LaserBond to revisit it’s acquisition strategy with the purchase of assets in an engineering business, C & B Engineering in Minto NSW. The additional workshop and equipment will be fully utilised in the current fiscal year. LaserBond will be relocating the Ingleburn and C&B facilities into a larger and purpose built facility to capitalise on the current growth and to ensure we have a solid foundation to continue to grow both organically and via additional acquisitions.

The outlook for LaserBond for the next fiscal year will be one of consolidating the recent acquisition, continuing to grow and develop the Queensland division to its full capacity and the investment in new facilities for NSW to provide a solid foundation to grow in business over the next 3 – 5 years. The Company continues to review and monitor various opportunities with the intent to acquire additional businesses that fit within our strategy.

The Board of LaserBond has resolved to implement a dividend policy that will include a dividend reinvestment plan. The maiden dividend of 0.5c per share fully franked is announced in this report. The Board will review the dividend policy each 6 months with the intent of issuing a dividend twice per year.

I would like to thank our employees for the hard work and dedication in the making LaserBond what it is today. Our special thanks to all of our shareholders who have provided support and commitment over the past few years allowing us develop LaserBond and to add value for all stakeholders.

Yours sincerely

Tim McCauley Chairman LaserBond Limited

Directors’ Report

The Directors present their report on the consolidated entity for the financial year ended 30[th] June 2011.

Principal Activities

Laserbond specialises in the manufacture and reclamation of industrial components and assemblies used in a broad range of capital intensive industries and environments, such as mining, minerals processing, and primary metals manufacturing. Usually the components are for critical applications that require optimised surface properties to increase the working life and reduce maintenance costs for LaserBond’s customers. The specialised and unique technologies used by LaserBond allow it to reclaim almost any industrial component, usually improving its inherent properties for longer service life. Alternatively, Laserbond manufactures new replacement components, incorporating surface enhancing technologies where longer service life is desired by its customers.

The Queensland division is focused on providing manufacturing and maintenance services to the Central Queensland region, providing a range of services including a large capacity CNC machine shop able to handle large and small quantity production. The Queensland division also includes a custom designed facility providing space and infrastructure to take on large scale assembly and disassembly work as well as fabrication. A complete portfolio of surfacing technologies is currently being added thereby replicating the capabilities that exist in NSW. These highly specialised technologies will support new and existing industrial customers in the Central Queensland region.

Review of Operations and Results

The Board is proud to recognise that through the exceptional efforts of the staff and management of LaserBond in the application of its specialised technology and know-how to a broad range of industries, outstanding organic growth continues to be achieved. This growth is demonstrated in all key financial measures of the business:

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

Outlook

The continued growth in the Australian mining sector provides excellent opportunities for considerable growth of the business. Laserbond’s largest customers are associated with resource extraction and processing. These industries are continually looking for services that provide increased production, reduced down-time and lower costs. Laserbond has well advanced development projects with several customers in these industries that will organically increase revenue and returns.

To further capitalise on the expanding resource sector, the Board is considering options for expansion of the business to Western Australia. Such expansion may include a suitable acquisition or a greenfield expansion which will provide increasing returns to shareholders.

The implementation of carbon pricing will grow Laserbond’s market and increase the demand for its specialised services. Laserbond assists its customers to reduce their total carbon footprint through increased productivity and efficiency, reduced scrap, as well as lower maintenance costs. Close to 30GJ of energy is used to produce 1 tonne of steel, and depending on the amount of work required, a worn machine component made from this 1 tonne of steel may be reclaimed by Laserbond’s processes using 1GJ of energy. Through improvement of the surface properties using Laserbond’s specialised processes, the same component may last 4 or 5 times longer before needing repair or replacement next time. The “energy equation” is overwhelmingly in Laserbond’s favour.

The pending Carbon Tax will have a minimal effect on the costs of the business. In FY 2011, direct energy costs were less than 2% of Laserbond’s total costs. Mitigation of the increasing energy costs for the future has been achieved through the recent installation of a more efficient solid state laser, assisted by the Australian Federal Government under the Retooling for Climate Change program. Accordingly, the effect of the Carbon Tax on Laserbond’s costs will be minimal.

For the existing business, 2012 will be a year of cash flow funded investment and continuing organic growth. Investment commenced with the recent purchase of Plant & Equipment from C&B Engineering Pty Ltd to assist Laserbond to grow its business with existing and new customers. Over the last two years the Board has restricted investment to ensure working capital was available to manage the 2010 loss from the Queensland division. With the Queensland division returning to growth measured investment will resume to ensure continued revenue and profit growth.

In the Market Update released in May the Board indicated the move of the Sydney operations to larger premises was imminent. The recent opportunistic purchase of the equipment from C&B Engineering and the immediate growth from this investment has resulted in the need for even larger premises to ensure the division’s growth over the next 2 to 5 years is not further restricted due to insufficient space. Negotiations are currently under way for lease of new premises providing a minimum of 3,000m² initially with up to 5,000m² available for use within the first 2 to 4 years. Construction is due to be completed in June 2012 and until then the NSW division will remain at two nearby sites; the existing Ingleburn premises of approximately 1100m[2] and C&B Engineering’s original 1400m[2] premises in Minto.

The Queensland division delivered the group a result of $81,657 EBIT in FY2011 which is a significant improvement to the FY2010 EBIT loss of <$484,936>. The turn around occurred in the second half of the financial year and can be directly attributed to:

  1. strengthening relationships and increased spending by customers, 2. the installation of LaserBond[®] cladding technology,

  2. a much stronger team of employees managing this division, and

  3. efficiency and cost cutting measures put in place by the board.

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

The revenue and profit growth for the second half of the financial year for the Queensland division was significant, and continued growth throughout 2012 and the future is expected. It will be further enhanced by the installation of Laserbond’s thermal spraying capabilities.

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

Corporate Governance Statement

Unless disclosed below, all the best practice recommendations of the ASX Corporate Governance Council have been applied for the entire financial year ended 30[th] June 2011.

Principle 1: Lay Solid Foundations for Management & Oversight.

1.1 – Companies should establish the functions reserved to the board and those delegated to senior executives and disclose those functions.

The Company’s Board is responsible for corporate governance of the Company. The Board develops strategies for the Company’s business, reviews strategic objectives and monitors performance against those objectives. The goals of the corporate governance processes are to:

a) Maintain and increase Shareholder value;

  • b) Ensure a prudential and ethical basis for the Company’s conduct and activities; and

c) To ensure compliance with the Company’s legal and statutory objectives.

Consistent with these goals, the Board assumes the following responsibilities:

a) Developing initiatives for profit and asset growth;

  • b) Reviewing the corporate, commercial and financial performance for the Company on a regular basis;

c) Acting on behalf of, and being accountable to, the Shareholders; and

d) Identifying business risks and implementing actions to manage those risks and corporate systems to assure quality.

The company in general meetings is responsible for the appointment of the external auditors of the company, and the board from time to time will review the scope, performance and fees of those external auditors

Roles and responsibilities of Senior Executives are agreed to by the Board and are based on Strategic plans, Financial Budgets, and the available skills and experience Senior Executives.

1.2 – Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of senior executives

The Board expects all senior executives to meet all targets as required by strategic plans, financial budgets, key performance indicators and formal job descriptions. Performance is evaluated annually at Performance Reviews.

Principle 2: Structure the Board to Add Value

The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of each Director who is in the office at the date of this annual report and their term of office are detailed in the Director’s report.

The Directors monitor the business affairs of the company on behalf of Shareholders and focus their attention on accountability, risk management and ethical conduct.

Election of Board members is substantially the province of the Shareholders in general meeting. However, subject thereto, the company is committed to the following principles:

a) The board is to comprise Directors with a blend of skills, experience and attributes appropriate for the company and its business; and

b) The principal criterion for the appointment of new Directors is their ability to add value to the company and its business.

In accordance with its Corporate Governance policies, the board meets at least bi-monthly. It met on nine (9) occasions during financial year ended 30 June 2011.

2.1 – A majority of the board should be independent Directors.

The Board comprises a minority of independent Directors (which is not in accordance with the best practice recommendations). The Board is of the view that the overall number of Directors is appropriate for the size and complexity of the business. Importantly, the composition provides two representatives on the Board who have specialised experience and knowledge of the business.

2.2 – The Chair should be an independent Director

The chairperson, Mr. Tim McCauley, is an independent, non-executive, Director.


Page 12 of 45

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

2.3 – The roles of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer should not be exercised by the same individual

The chairperson, Mr. Tim McCauley, does not hold the position of Chief Executive Officer.

2.4 – The Board should establish a Nomination Committee

No formal nomination committee or procedures have been adopted for the identification, appointment and review of the board membership. An informal assessment process, facilitated by the Chairman in consultation with the company’s professional advisors, has been committed to by the board.

2.5 – Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of the board, its committees and individual Directors.

An annual performance evaluation of the board and all board members is undertaken on the anniversary of the first listing of the company. The next evaluation will occur December 2011.

Principle 3: Promote Ethical and Responsible Decision-Making

3.1 – Companies should establish a code of conduct and disclose the code or a summary of the code as to:

a) the practices necessary to maintain confidence in the company’s integrity

b) the practices necessary to take into account their legal obligations and the reasonable expectations of their stakeholders; and c) the responsibility and accountability of individuals for reporting and investigating reports of unethical practices

It is the Board’s responsibility to ensure an effective internal control framework exists. This includes internal controls to deal with the effectiveness and efficiency of significant business processes, the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records, and the reliability of financial information as well as non-financial considerations such as the benchmarking of operational key performance indicators.

The Board assumes the responsibility for the establishment and maintenance of a framework of internal control and ethical standards for the management of the consolidated entity.

The Board seeks independent professional advice prior to making any business decisions that may affect the performance of the company or its securities. Also, subject to the Chairman’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld), the Directors, at the company’s expense, may obtain independent professional advice on issues arising in the course of their duties.

3.2 – Companies should establish a policy concerning trading in company securities by Directors, senior executives and employees, and disclose the policy or a summary of that policy

The company’s policy regarding Directors and employees trading in securities is set by the board. The policy restricts Directors and employees from acting on material information until it has been released to the market and adequate time has been allowed for this to be reflected in the Company’s security prices

Principle 4: Safeguard Integrity in Financial Reporting

4.1 – The board should establish an audit committee

The role of the Audit Committee has been assumed by the full Board. Whilst not in accordance with the best practice recommendation, the Company is of the view that such an approach is appropriate given the size of the existing board. Further, the Board does not consider that the Company is of sufficient size to justify the appointment of additional Directors, and to do so for the sole purpose of satisfying this requirement would be cost prohibitive.

4.2 – The audit committee should be structured so that it: - a) consists of only non executive Directors; b) consists of a majority of independent Directors; c) is chaired by an independent chair, who is not chair of the board; and d) has at lease three members

The role of the Audit Committee has been assumed by the full Board, with reasoning for this detailed under Section 4.1 above.


Page 13 of 45

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

4.3 – The audit committee should have a formal charter

No formal charter currently exists.

Principle 5: Make Timely and Balance Disclosure

5.1 – Companies should establish written policies designed to ensure compliance with ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements and to ensure accountability at senior executive level for that compliance and disclose those policies or a summary of those policies.

Both the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible in ensuring that all disclosure requirements and full compliance is met.

Principle 6: Respect the Rights of Shareholders

6.1 – Companies should design a communications policy for promoting effective communication with shareholders and encouraging their participation at general meetings and disclose their policy or a summary of that policy

The Board aims to ensure that the shareholders are informed of all major developments affecting the Company’s state of affairs by issuing announcements to ASX, thereby complying with its continuous disclosure obligations.

The Board recommends and requests the participation of all shareholders at general meetings by formal, written notice of meetings.

Principle 7: Recognise and Manage Risk

7.1 – Companies should establish policies for the oversight and management of material business risks and disclose a summary of those policies

The Board determines the Company’s “risk profile” and is responsible for overseeing and approving risk management strategy and policies, internal compliance and internal control.

The Board’s collective experience will enable accurate identification of the principal risks that may affect the company’s business. Key operational risks and their management are recurring items for consideration at Board meetings 7.2 – The Board should require management to design and implement the risk management and internal control system to manage the company’s material business risks and report to it on whether those risks are being managed effectively. The board should disclose that management has reported to it as to the effectiveness of the company’s management of its material business risks.

The Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent) and the Chief Financial Officer (or equivalent) are directly responsible for managing the company’s material risk and implementing internal controls. Both parties are required to report at Board level on risks, results and recommendations.

7.3 – The Board should disclose whether it has received assurance from the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent) and the Chief Financial Officer (or equivalent) that the declaration provided in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that the system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks.

The Board will consider whether it is appropriate to require the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent) and the Chief Financial Officer (or equivalent) to provide such a statement at the relevant time.

Principle 8: Remunerate Fairly and Responsibly

The Board is responsible for determining the remuneration of Directors and Senior Management. When establishing and reviewing the remuneration of Directors and Senior Management the Company will apply the broad principles of a fair and equitable standard of remuneration commensurate with the qualifications and experience each member brings to the Company. Directors that have a direct or vested interest in the establishment and review of remuneration will not be included in the process.

8.1 – The board should establish a remuneration committee.

The Company has not established a remuneration committee due to its size and structure.


Page 14 of 45

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

8.2 – Companies should clearly distinguish the structure of non-executive Director’s remuneration from that of executive Directors and senior executives.

Non-executive Directors will not receive performance based bonuses and will not participate in equity schemes of the Company, nor will they be entitled to retirement allowances.

The Company’s constitution provides that the remuneration of non-executive Directors will be no more than the aggregate fixed sum determined by a general meeting.

The current limit, which may only be varied by Shareholders in general meeting, is an aggregate amount of $150,000 per annum.

Remuneration of Senior Executives is determined by the Board, based on the person’s skills and experience, and current market rates for the roles and responsibilities.

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial report of LaserBond Limited for the year ended 30 June 2011 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 26[th] August 2011 as required by the Corporations Act 2001.

This financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and notes of LaserBond Limited and controlled entities.

LaserBond Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

Australian Accounting Standards include Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial statements and notes comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The financial report has also been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical cost, except interest paid and received.

The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

a) Comparative Information

Where necessary, comparative amounts have been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year accounting policy and disclosures. Further details on the nature and reason for the amounts that have been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year accounting policy and disclosures, where considered material, are referred to separately in the financial statements or notes thereto.

b) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial report is prepared by combining the financial statements of all the entities that comprise the consolidated entity, being LaserBond Limited (the parent entity) and it’s subsidiaries as defined in Accounting Standard AASB 127 – Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. Consistent accounting policies are employed in the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements. On acquisition, the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary are measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognised as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired.

The consolidated financial report includes the information and results of each subsidiary from the date on which the company obtains control and until such time as the company ceases to control such entity.

In preparing the consolidated financial report, all intercompany balances and transactions, and unrealised profits arising within the consolidated entity are eliminated in full.

c) Foreign Currency Translation

The functional and presentation currency of the Company is Australian dollars.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settling foreign currency transactions, as well as from restating foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, are recognised in the income statement, except for differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.

d) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised in the following manner:


Page 24 of 45

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Sale of Goods and Services

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.

Interest

Revenue from interest is recognised on the date the interest is received as shown on bank statements.

Other Income

Revenue from other income streams are recognised either at the date of receipt of the income, or the date of the issued tax invoice for the income, as appropriate.

e) Goodwill

Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

The amount of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the Group holds a less than 100% interest will depend on the method adopted in measuring the non-controlling interest. The Group can elect in most circumstances to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value (“full goodwill method”) or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the subsidiary’s identifiable net assets (“proportionate interest method”). In such circumstances, the Group determines which method to adopt for each acquisition and this is stated in the respective notes to these financial statements disclosing the business combination.

Under the full goodwill method, the fair value of the non-controlling interest is determined using valuation techniques which make the maximum use of market information where available. Under this method, goodwill attributable to the non-controlling interest is recognised in the consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group’s cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units, which represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored but where such level is not larger than an operating segment. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill related to the entity sold.

Changes in the ownership interests in a subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions and do not affect the carrying values of goodwill.

f) Income Tax

The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction does not affect either accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences, between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases, at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. Exceptions are made for certain temporary differences arising on initial recognition of an asset or a liability if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit.

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

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

Current and deferred tax balances relating to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

g) Inventories

Raw materials and work in progress are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of work in progress comprises direct materials, direct labour and any external sub-contract costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

h) Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Plant and equipment

Plant and Equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment losses.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Depreciation

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on a reducing balance basis using the following rates:

  • Plant and equipment 4.5% - 50%

  • Motor Vehicles 18.75% - 25%

  • Research & Development Equipment 20% - 50%

If an asset’s value is adjusted to meet any deemed recoverable amount, the difference is accounted for in the Asset Revaluation Reserve account on the Balance Sheet. All other gains and losses are included in the Income Statement

i) Impairment of Assets

Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. Intangible assets with indefinite life are assessed for impairment annually.

j) Leases

Leases of plant and equipment, where the Company as lessee has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, are classified as hire purchase liabilities. Hire purchase assets are capitalised at their inception at the fair value of the leased equipment or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the income statement over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The equipment acquired under hire purchase agreements is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term.

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

k) Financial Instruments

Classification

The Company classifies its investments in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and loans and receivables. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition

(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are classified as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets.

(ii) Loans and receivables

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

Recognition and initial measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (ie trade date accounting is adopted).

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified “at fair value through profit or loss”, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.

Derecognition

Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expire or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

Subsequent Measurement

Loans and receivables are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method or cost.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' category are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise.

Impairment

The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. Impairment loss recognised as profit or loss.

l) Intangibles

Patents and trademarks

Patents and trademarks have a finite life and are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Patents and trademarks are amortised over their useful life. The amortisation rate used is 7.5% per annum. The amortisation expense is included within administration expenses.

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

m) Cash and Cash Equivalents

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

n) Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the year end and which are unpaid. These amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 to 60 days of recognition.

o) Borrowings

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

Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in other income or other expenses.

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

Borrowing costs are recognised as expenses as they are incurred.

p) Issued Capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Mandatorily redeemable preference shares (if any) are classified as liabilities.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a business are not included in the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.

q) Goods and Services Tax

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

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

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

r) Employee benefits

(i) Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

(ii) Long Service Leave

The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

s) Dividends

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the financial year but not distributed at balance date.

t) Government Grants

Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all grant conditions will be met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant to the costs they are compensating. Governments grants relating to assets are initially taken to deferred income and then offset against the carrying amount of the asset when construction of the asset has been completed.

u) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

Estimates and judgements are continually estimated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The entity makes estimates, assumptions and judgements concerning the future. The Directors are of the belief that these do not have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. No critical estimates have been made in the preparation of the financial statements.

v) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods

The AASB has issued new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods and which the Group has decided not to early adopt. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Group is as follows:

  • (i) AASB 9: Financial Instruments (December 2010) (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).

This Standard is applicable retrospectively and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, as well as recognition and de-recognition requirements for financial instruments. The Group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements. The key changes made to accounting requirements include:

  • simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;

  • simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives;

  • removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets;

  • removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised cost;

  • allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument;

  • requiring financial assets to be reclassified where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based on: (a) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and (b) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows; and

  • requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income, except when that would create an accounting mismatch. If such a mismatch would be created or enlarged, the entity is required to present all changes in fair value (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.

(ii) AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011).

This Standard removes the requirement for government-related entities to disclose details of all transactions with the government and other government-related entities and clarifies the definition of a “related party” to remove inconsistencies and simplify the structure of the Standard. No changes are expected to materially affect the Group.

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(iii) AASB 1053: Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards and AASB 2010–2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Reduced Disclosure Requirements [AASB 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 101, 102, 107, 108, 110, 111, 112, 116, 117, 119, 121, 123, 124, 127, 128, 131, 133, 134, 136, 137, 138, 140, 141, 1050 & 1052 and Interpretations 2, 4, 5, 15, 17, 127, 129 & 1052] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 July 2013).

AASB 1053 establishes a revised differential financial reporting framework consisting of two tiers of financial reporting requirements for those entities preparing general purpose financial statements:

  • Tier 1: Australian Accounting Standards; and

  • Tier 2: Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements.

Tier 2 of the framework comprises the recognition, measurement and presentation requirements of Tier 1, but contains significantly fewer disclosure requirements. The following entities are required to apply Tier 1 reporting requirements (ie full IFRS):

  • for-profit private sector entities that have public accountability; and

  • the Australian Government and state, territory and local governments.

Subject to AASB 1049, general government sectors of the Australian Government and state and territory governments would also apply Tier 1 reporting requirements. The following entities can elect to apply Tier 2 of the framework when preparing general purpose financial statements:

  • for-profit private sector entities that do not have public accountability;

  • not-for-profit private sector entities; and

  • public sector entities, whether for-profit or not-for-profit, other than the Australian Government and state, territory and local governments.

AASB 2010–2 makes amendments to Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations to give effect to the reduced disclosure requirements for Tier 2 entities. It achieves this by specifying the disclosure paragraphs that a Tier 2 entity need not comply with as well as adding specific “RDR” disclosures.

(iv) AASB 2009–12: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASB 5, 8, 108, 110, 112, 119, 133, 137, 139, 1023 & 1031 and Interpretations 2, 4, 16, 1039 & 1052] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011).

This Standard makes a number of editorial amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of IFRS’ by the IASB. The Standard also amends AASB 8 to require entities to exercise judgment in assessing whether a government and entities known to be under the control of that government are considered a single customer for the purposes of certain operating segment disclosures. The amendments are not expected to impact the Group.

(v) AASB 2009–14: Amendments to Australian Interpretation – Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement [AASB Interpretation 14] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011).

This Standard amends Interpretation 14 to address unintended consequences that can arise from the previous accounting requirements when an entity prepays future contributions into a defined benefit pension plan. This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

(vi) AASB 2010–4: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 1, AASB 7, AASB 101 & AASB 134 and Interpretation 13] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011).

This Standard details numerous non-urgent but necessary changes to Accounting Standards arising from the IASB’s annual improvements project. Key changes include:

  • clarifying the application of AASB 108 prior to an entity’s first Australian-Accounting-Standards financial statements;

Page 30 of 45

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

  • adding an explicit statement to AASB 7 that qualitative disclosures should be made in the context of the quantitative disclosures to better enable users to evaluate an entity’s exposure to risks arising from financial instruments;

  • amending AASB 101 to the effect that disaggregation of changes in each component of equity arising from transactions recognised in other comprehensive income is required to be presented, but is permitted to be presented in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes;

  • adding a number of examples to the list of events or transactions that require disclosure under AASB 134; and

  • making sundry editorial amendments to various Standards and Interpretations.

This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

(vii) AASB 2010–5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 101, 107, 112, 118, 119, 121, 132, 133, 134, 137, 139, 140, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 112, 115, 127, 132 & 1042] (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011).

This Standard makes numerous editorial amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of IFRSs by the IASB. However, these editorial amendments have no major impact on the requirements of the respective amended pronouncements.

(viii) AASB 2010–6: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures on Transfers of Financial Assets [AASB 1 & AASB 7] (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011).

This Standard adds and amends disclosure requirements about transfers of financial assets, especially those in respect of the nature of the financial assets involved and the risks associated with them. Accordingly, this Standard makes amendments to AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards, and AASB 7: Financial Instruments: Disclosures, establishing additional disclosure requirements in relation to transfers of financial assets. This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

(ix) AASB 2010–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010) [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 101, 102, 108, 112, 118, 120, 121, 127, 128, 131, 132, 136, 137, 139, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 2, 5, 10, 12, 19 & 127] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

This Standard makes amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations as a consequence of the issuance of AASB 9: Financial Instruments in December 2010. Accordingly, these amendments will only apply when the entity adopts AASB 9. As noted above, the Group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements from adopting AASB 9.

(x) AASB 2010–8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets [AASB 112] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012).

This Standard makes amendments to AASB 112: Income Taxes.The amendments brought in by this Standard introduce a more practical approach for measuring deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets when investment property is measured using the fair value model under AASB 140: Investment Property.

Under the current AASB 112, the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets depends on whether an entity expects to recover an asset by using it or by selling it. The amendments introduce a presumption that an investment property is recovered entirely through sale. This presumption is rebutted if the investment property is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. The amendments brought in by this Standard also incorporate Interpretation 121 into AASB 112. The amendments are not expected to impact the Group.

(xi) AASB 2010–9: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Severe Hyperinflation and Removal of Fixed Dates for First-time Adopters [AASB 1] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011).

This Standard makes amendments to AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards. The amendments brought in by this Standard provide relief for first-time adopters of Australian Accounting Standards from having to reconstruct transactions that occurred before their date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards.

Furthermore, the amendments brought in by this Standard also provide guidance for entities emerging from severe hyperinflation either to resume presenting Australian-Accounting-Standards financial statements or to present AustralianAccounting-Standards financial statements for the first time. This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

(xii) AASB 2010–10: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Removal of Fixed Dates for First-time Adopters [AASB 2009–11 & AASB 2010–7] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

This Standard makes amendments to AASB 2009–11: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9, and AASB 2010–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010). The amendments brought in by this Standard ultimately affect AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards and provide relief for first-time adopters from having to reconstruct transactions that occurred before their transition date. [The amendments to AASB 2009–11 will only affect early adopters of AASB 2009–11 (and AASB 9: Financial Instruments that was issued in December 2009) as it has been superseded by AASB 2010–7.] This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

In April 2010 unsecured convertible notes were issued with a face value of $350,000 to provide additional working capital for the group. The repayment date of the notes is 30 June 2012 convertible into ordinary fully paid shares at an issue price determined as the lesser of either 15 cents per share or the price that is 85% of the average market price of the company’s ordinary fully paid shares over the last 5 days on which sales were recorded before the date of conversion and issue.

Shares issued upon conversion of any note will carry standard rights applicable to quoted ordinary shares in the company and will, from the date of issue, rank equally with fully paid ordinary shares currently on issue.

Interest is payable quarterly in arrears at 9.5% per annum. The notes shall not provide for any voting rights at shareholder meetings of the company.

NOTE 26: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial Risk Management Policies

The Board of Directors monitors and manages financial risk exposures of the Group. The Board reviews the effectiveness of internal controls relating to counterparty credit risk, currency risk, financing risk and interest rate risk.

The overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the consolidated group in meeting its financial targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance, including the review of credit risk policies and future cash flow requirements.

Activities undertaken by the company may expose the company to price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk. The company’s risk management policies and objectives are therefore reviewed to minimise the potential impacts of these risks on the results of the company.

b) Credit Risk Exposure

The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognize financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for doubtful debts, as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements.

c) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the company may encounter difficulties raising funds to meet commitments. The company manages this risk by monetary forecast cash flows.

d) Net fair value of financial assets and liabilities


Page 42 of 45

LaserBond Limited ABN 24 057 636 692 Financial Report to 30[th] June 2011

The carrying amount of cash, cash equivalents and non-interest bearing monetary financial assets and liabilities (e.g. accounts receivable and payable) are at approximate net fair value.

e) Price Risk

The company is not exposed to any material price risk.

f) Sensitivity Analysis

The company has performed a sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. This sensitivity analysis demonstrates the effect on the current year results and equity which could result from a change in these risks.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis

The company as 30[th] June 2011 held a quantity of cash on hand in an Interest Bearing bank account. At 30[th] June 2011, the effect on profit and equity as a result of changes in the interest rate on Cash on Hand, with all other variables remaining constant would be as follows:

2011 2010
$ $
Change in profit
- Increase in interest rate by 7% 1,207 4,931
- Decrease in interest rate by 7% (1,207) (4,931)
Change in equity
- Increase in interest rate by 7% 1,207 4,931
- Decrease in interest rate by 7% (1,207) (4,931)

Foreign Currency Risk Sensitivity Analysis

The company purchases certain raw material from overseas due to non-availability in Australia or savings due to bulk buying power overseas. At 30[th] June 2011, the effect on profit and equity as a result of changes in the Australian Dollar to other International currencies, with all other variables remaining constant would be as follows:

2011 2010
$ $

NOTE 28: MATTERS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR

a) In July 2011 LaserBond completed the purchase of the assets of C&B Engineering (CBE) which became available due to the planned retirement of the proprietor. This was an opportunistic purchase as the assets are items that LaserBond requires to meet existing growth targets. CBE’s assets include large machining equipment and both general and CNC engineering equipment that allowed them to build a successful business, predominantly servicing the mining equipment sector. Some of the customers of CBE, particularly in the mining sector, are already customers of LaserBond. This will allow LaserBond to further strengthen its business with these existing customers while at the same time introduce the LaserBond technology to a new client base.

b) LaserBond’s Workers’ Compensation insurer has recently provided the estimated premium payable for the 2011 – 2012 period of insurance. Due to a musculature injury of one employee and the experience adjustment factor added to the premium by our insurer, the 2012 premiums have increased. Upon investigation by LaserBond’s advisors it has been deemed that the insurers premium calculation may be excessive. An appeal in regards to the premium calculations has been lodged with WorkCover (NSW) dated 25 August 2011.

Identification of reportable segments
