15 August 2007
Lend Lease Corporation Limited ("Lend Lease") delivered a strong Statutory Profit of A\$497.5 million after tax for the year ended June 2007. This includes A\$32.2 million after tax in interest from the Australian Taxation Office ("ATO") as a result of the long running dispute which has now been resolved. Statutory Profit also includes net gains from property investment revaluations of A\$51.6 million after tax.
Excluding the ATO interest noted above, Net Operating Profit was A\$413.7 million after tax, up 17% on the result for the prior year. This exceeds market consensus and is well ahead of management's objective of achieving an average growth in earnings per share ("EPS") of 10% p.a. over a five-year period.
Reflecting its strong performance, Lend Lease declared a final dividend of 42 cents per share franked to 50%, bringing total dividends for the year ended June 2007 to 77 cents per share, 26% higher than the previous full year dividend. The full year dividend represents a payout ratio of 69% of after tax operating earnings, within the Board's current target payout range of 60-80%.

Lend Lease Managing Director and CEO, Greg Clarke, said the Company maintained strong momentum in earnings growth, while significantly expanding its pipeline of projects which will deliver long term earnings streams from its Development, Construction and Investment Management businesses.
"Net operating earnings exceeded market expectations despite the provision made in the UK construction operations during the first half and the tough residential market in Australia. This demonstrates the resilience of the Group's diversified operations. Actus Lend Lease in the US, the Investment Management business and Bovis Lend Lease in Asia Pacific all made stand-out contributions and our Retail & Communities business secured a number of major new projects," Mr Clarke said.
"The Company continued to recycle its capital, realising approximately A\$1.1 billion in proceeds while reinvesting around A\$1.3 billion in its pipeline to secure future earnings growth opportunities. Importantly, at June 2007 Lend Lease had increased its invested capital base to A\$4.4 billion from A\$4.1 billion at June 2006.
"Lend Lease enjoys very strong operating cash flows and is well placed to deliver continued earnings and dividend growth to drive shareholder value over the medium to long term," Mr Clarke said.
Group Chief Operating Officer, Ross Taylor, said Lend Lease maintained strong momentum in building its pipeline of development, construction and investment management opportunities.
"We had a successful year in terms of securing a number of high quality projects such as Stratford City Athletes Village, which will generate long term, integrated earnings from our development, construction, asset and investment management operations," Mr Taylor said.
"The Group also made good progress in extending its integrated operating strategy into the UK, US and Singapore.
"Lend Lease finished the year with a Retail & Communities development pipeline of approximately A\$45 billion, and a Construction Backlog Gross Profit Margin of A\$792.9 million, a record level.
"Bovis Lend Lease performed strongly in Asia Pacific, the Americas and Continental Europe, and we have stabilised the UK operation following the first half provision.
"We continue to identify and deliver investment opportunities for our clients in the Investment Management business in Asia Pacific such as Somerset Central in Singapore and 420 George Street in Sydney, and we are well placed to create new opportunities for investors around development assets in the UK over the next two to three years," Mr Taylor said.
Major development pipeline additions during the year ended June 2007 included:
- Rocky Springs a new community project with a potential 13,000 lots in Australia;
- The A\$730 million Somerset Central retail development in Singapore;
- Two new US military base privatised housing projects with an initial construction value of approximately US\$450 million; the first stage of a base hotel lodging redevelopment program valued at US\$400 million; and the Group's first two private sector residential community project sites in the US; and
- The £5.5 billion Stratford City redevelopment project.
Post the year end, Lend Lease continued to add to its pipeline in the UK with the recently announced £\$1.5 billion mixed-use, inner urban regeneration project at Elephant & Castle in London and a 50% interest in the £600 million retail and residential urban regeneration project at Preston.

The Investment Management business continued to contribute to the Group's integrated business model. Major initiatives included creation of the Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund with its seed asset being 75% of the Somerset Central development and the launch of the Lend Lease Communities Fund 1, which acquired interests in several Delfin Lend Lease land development projects. Funds Under Management, excluding joint venture interests, increased by 27%.
Group Financials
Lend Lease performed well against its key financial performance indicators.
Earnings per share continued to grow in line with operating earnings and return on equity exceeded management's targeted 15% p.a. for the first time since the Group was restructured in 2003. Interest coverage was 7.9 times, comfortably in excess of the targeted minimum 6 times, and 84% of the Group's debt is at fixed rates with long term maturity. Annuity style earnings from property assets and Funds Under Management represented 23% of total earnings, well above the target of 15-20%, which supports the Group's investment grade credit rating.
Group Finance Director, Steve McCann, said: "Lend Lease maintains a very robust financial position, with significant capacity to fund growth opportunities. Gross Debt to Total Tangible Assets stood at 15.6% at 30 June 2007.
"Our target gearing range is 30-40%, but the strong cash flows from recycling capital have meant we were able to expand the development pipeline and increase the Group's invested capital base during the year, without significantly increasing debt.
"However, the Group's current three year business plan envisages an increase in debt. We expect to reach the lower end of our target gearing range by the end of the plan period. This takes into account investment in our current development pipeline and continued capital recycling," Mr McCann said.
Outlook
Mr Clarke said while the Australian residential market remained patchy, the Group's US and UK Retail & Communities businesses maintained a good outlook and global construction markets were buoyant.
"We have an excellent platform in each of the businesses in each of our regional markets, and increasingly the three businesses are working together to secure longer term projects that will deliver multiple earnings streams for Lend Lease.
"Lend Lease is well placed to deliver ongoing growth in shareholder value," Mr Clarke said.

Business Review
Retail & Communities
The 9% growth in after tax profit for the Retail & Communities business was a pleasing result given the tough market conditions experienced by the Australian Communities business and the absence of a major retail asset sale this year.
The global Communities operation was up 36% compared to the prior year. Actus Lend Lease was a stand-out performer and the Group expects it to continue to deliver a strong result again this year. The Australian and UK Communities businesses benefited from higher commercial sales. Although residential units settled were down on FY2006, sales momentum going into FY2008 is stronger, setting the business up well for the year ahead. However, the Group is not expecting to achieve the same level of commercial sales this year.
The Communities pipeline in the UK significantly increased beyond the Crosby backlog with the announcement of Lend Lease as the preferred partner at the Stratford City project and the Elephant & Castle project.
Overall, the business achieved significant momentum in building its future earnings base, adding new retail, mixeduse community and US military housing opportunities to its development pipeline in Asia Pacific, the UK and the US.
Group COO, Ross Taylor, said: "Taking into account the A\$45 billion pipeline at June 2007 and recent project wins, Lend Lease now has a potential pipeline of opportunities totalling just over A\$60 billion in development value, spanning the retail, communities and privatisation sectors across the three regions in which we operate."
The Retail pipeline was A\$5.3 billion at June 2007 including the acquisition of the Somerset Central retail development site in Singapore. In addition, post balance date Lend Lease confirmed that it was in exclusive negotiations on the £600 million Preston retail opportunity and the £1.5 billion Elephant & Castle mixed-use regeneration project.
The Communities pipeline grew with the selection of Actus Lend Lease as preferred bidder for the US\$400 million PAL military lodgings program. This is the first project to be awarded under the US Army lodgings program. Actus reached preferred bidder status on an additional two projects and reached financial close on four projects which significantly increased Backlog GPM.
Lend Lease expanded its Communities platform in the US beyond the Actus operations with two projects in the Denver area – Horizon City and Lowry Range. Together, these mixed-use community projects offer a potential 15,900 residential dwellings and 1.3 million square metres non-residential development potential, with an estimated end sales value of A\$2.3 billion.
Project Management, Construction & PFI
Despite the provision announced earlier this year, the Project Management, Construction & PFI business completed the year ended June 2007 with an increased Backlog GPM of A\$792.9 million, up 16% on the closing Backlog GPM at June 2006. This excludes projects in preferred bidder status.
The Asia Pacific and Americas operations performed well in terms of New Work Secured, which was A\$505.8 million for the year globally (A\$511.6 million – June 2006).
Mark Menhinnitt, Global CEO for Bovis Lend Lease, said: "Continental Europe, Asia Pacific and the US operations all performed very well and have maintained a strong operating outlook.
"Bovis completed the year with a record Backlog Gross Profit Margin, despite taking the provision in the UK in the first half, which demonstrates the underlying strength of the business.
"Our focus is now on getting the right risk return profile for the business in each of the regions.
"We are now significantly advanced on de-risking the UK operation and most of the underperforming projects in that region will be complete by this December," Mr Menhinnitt said.
Investment Management
The Investment Management business performed strongly, with the launch of two new funds, and a significant increase in Funds Under Management.
Two new wholesale funds were launched during the year, with committed equity of over A\$650 million. These were the Lend Lease Communities Fund 1 and the Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund, which bought a 75% stake in the Somerset Central asset on Orchard Road, Singapore. The Group's co-investment in these funds is approximately A\$80 million.
Lend Lease continued to deliver strong performance for managed funds such as APPF (20%+ p.a. total return for the retail and commercial funds) and the new Core Plus Fund, which delivered a total return of 12% in its first year compared to the target return of 10% p.a.
Group Finance Director and Global CEO Investment Management, Steve McCann, said: "The business grew core Funds Under Management by around 27%, excluding joint venture interests which we have now exited.
"Lend Lease attracted significant new equity to APPF and launched the new Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund during the year. This reflects our continuing strong fund performance and the support we enjoy from our growing wholesale investor base.
"During the year, we expanded our Investment Management resources to ensure we can both fully leverage and support the Group's significant pipeline.
"We now have a very strong platform to grow Funds Under Management in Asia Pacific and the UK over the short to medium term. We will continue to be responsive to investor needs in identifying investment opportunities and leveraging our integrated business model for the benefit of both our clients and Lend Lease," Mr McCann said.

2 Represents the unrealised valuation increases on property investments that are consolidated or accounted for using the equity method in the financial statements.
Profit After Tax
The Group's statutory profit after tax increased by 20% to A\$497.5 million. The Group recognised revaluation uplifts on its retail investments through the income statement of A\$51.6 million after tax (June 2006: A\$61.0 million).
The Retail business continued to consolidate its position with the successful opening of the Golden Square Shopping Centre in Warrington, UK and the commencement of construction of the Somerset Central development in Singapore. The Retail business profit after tax declined as no retail developments were sold in the current year whereas the prior year included a profit from the sale of the Chapelfield retail centre.
The Communities business profit after tax increased with the higher contributions from Crosby Lend Lease (Crosby) and Actus Lend Lease (Actus). Actus reached financial close on four projects and was named preferred bidder on another three projects in the year. In addition, the US Communities business signed a binding development agreement on the Lowry Range project in Denver, Colorado.
Investment Management launched two new funds in the year. In Australia, the Lend Lease Communities Fund 1 (LLCF1) was launched in July 2006 and the Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund (ARIF) was launched in Singapore in December 2006, with final close for this fund completed in May 2007. In Europe, profit after tax increased due to the significant profit distributions received from the Group's investment in Lend Lease Global Properties, SICAF (Global Fund) and the sale of the Group's interest in Generali Lend Lease (GLL).
Project Management, Construction and PFIs' profit after tax decreased in the year as a result of the A\$118.8 million after tax provision reported at December 2006, which was taken against certain UK projects including the Manchester Joint Hospitals project. Bovis Lend Lease increased profit after tax in both Asia Pacific and the Americas.
Overview continued
Profit After Tax continued
PFIs' profit after tax reflects increased equity returns from investments and the recovery of bid costs. However, profit after tax decreased as the prior year included profit arising from the Lend Lease and Bank of Scotland PFI joint venture where the parties equalised their investment in 11 PFI projects.
Corporate costs before tax decreased, however corporate costs after tax increased due to the prior year including the reversal of a tax provision.
Group Treasury profit after tax increased due to the recognition of interest income following a favourable judgement in the Federal Court on a tax dispute with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Property investment revaluation gains of A\$51.6 million after tax were recognised through the income statement. In addition, revaluation gains of A\$44.9 million after tax are not included in statutory profit but are recognised in the Fair Value Revaluation Reserve in the financial statements. The value of Lend Lease's interest in Bluewater also increased, however as Bluewater is held as inventory, the asset is recorded at historical cost in the financial statements.

Dividends
A final 50% franked dividend of 42 cents per share will be paid on 12 September 2007 (June 2006: 31 cents per share fully franked). On a full year basis, this equates to a total dividend of 77 cents which is a payout ratio of 69.2% of operating profit after tax.

Operating cash flows of A\$357.2 million reflect the strong underlying cash flows from the Group's operating businesses net of continued investment in property developments. The decrease from the prior year is primarily attributable to June 2006 including the proceeds on the sale of the Chapelfield retail centre of A\$532.0 million.
Investing cash outflows of A\$382.7 million reflects the Group's recycling of capital including co-investments in new investment management funds launched in the year (LLCF1 and ARIF) offset by capital redemptions from the Global Fund. The prior year included the acquisition of Crosby of A\$619.3 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities of A\$57.1 million includes £300.0 million borrowings raised from the issue of the 6.125% annual coupon guaranteed notes in the UK public bond market in October 2006, offset by the net repayment of £185.0 million in respect of the £350.0 million syndicated bank facility in the UK and dividend payments of A\$237.2 million.

Retail
Overview of Business
Lend Lease focuses on shopping centres with expansion potential in growing catchment areas. This business strategy is to secure integrated positions, which play to the Group's core skills and involve all components of the property value chain (ownership, development, construction and management). The Retail business is focused on three markets: Australia, Singapore and the UK.
During the year the business continued to grow its operations through:
- − Acquiring an ownership interest in a further five retail centres together with their related development and property management rights. A direct ownership interest was acquired in Somerset Central, Singapore; Paradiz Centre, Singapore and Pakenham Place, Melbourne while an indirect ownership interest was obtained in Pakenham Place, Melbourne; Caroline Springs Square, Melbourne and 420 George Street, Sydney via the Group's investment in APPF Retail;
- − Securing the right to acquire a 50% interest in the Park Place retail development in Croydon, UK, subject to certain commercial conditions;
- − Increasing Gross Lettable Area (GLA) under management to 926,100 square metres (sqm) (June 2006: 763,100 sqm);
- − Increasing the development pipeline to A\$5.3 billion (June 2006: A\$4.2 billion).

These sales are expected to settle in future years. The gross sales value of pre-sales refers to the gross revenue from pre-sales, including revenue earned from joint venture projects.
4 The number of units settled and pre-sales number of units are not relevant measures for commercial.
Performance highlights for the year included:
- − Despite difficult trading conditions, profit after tax of A\$90.9 million is broadly in line with the prior year;
- − The total gross sales value of units settled increased by A\$47.6 million to A\$940.5 million primarily due to an increase in residential built-form revenue due to settlement of 133 units at Dock 5, the first residential apartment tower at Victoria Harbour and settlement of 40 residential built-form units at St Patricks, Sydney. Commercial revenue reduced by A\$138.8 million due to the prior year including revenue of A\$220.0 million from the sale of the Darling Park Stage III commercial development;
- − The total number of lots settled declined by 3% to 2,795 units. The decrease was driven by a decline in the number of residential land lots settled, partially offset by an increase in settlements from residential built-form, primarily Dock 5 at Victoria Harbour and St Patricks, Sydney;
- − The average sale price per residential land lot increased marginally from A\$148,900 to A\$149,700;
- − The number of residential land lots pre-sold at 30 June 2007 was 1,220 units, a 100% increase on June 2006;
- − The sale of three Communities projects (Woodlands, Ropes Crossing and Lakeside) to LLCF1. Lend Lease has a 20.8% coinvestment in the fund and will earn ongoing management fees from these projects;
- − The sale of the Group's interest in a development site in Surfers Paradise to a third party. Concurrent with this transaction, a joint venture agreement between Lend Lease and ORIX Australia Corporation Limited to develop the site and adjacent properties was concluded;
- − The sale of Caroline Springs Square in Melbourne to LLCPF and APPF Retail;
- − The sale of the deferred management fees on a retirement village to LLCPF. The Senior Living business will continue to operate the village and receive management fees from LLCPF;
- − The Yarrabilba project was included in the Urban Footprint in the Queensland Government's amended Regional Plan. This is a significant milestone towards rezoning;
- − A binding Heads of Agreement has been signed to create a new 1,594 hectare master planned community at Rocky Springs, a major growth corridor in Townsville, adding 13,000 units to unzoned backlog;
- − Executing a development agreement with Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) to develop, on behalf of ANZ, an 84,650 sqm commercial development at Victoria Harbour. Once completed the building will be the largest single tenancy commercial office development ever undertaken in a CBD area in Australia.

Crosby Lend Lease
Lend Lease acquired a 97% interest in The Crosby Group in July 2005. During the year, Lend Lease acquired the remaining 3% minority interest. Crosby is an urban regeneration specialist operating in major northern UK cities such as Manchester, Leeds and Birmingham. The majority of Crosby's earnings are derived from mid to high rise apartment developments on brownfield urban regeneration sites.
Crosby performance highlights for the year included:
- − A contribution to profit after tax of A\$55.3 million. The reported profit after tax has been reduced by A\$8.1 million after tax due to a fair value adjustment recognised on acquisition (June 2006: \$46.3 million after tax);
- − The gross sales value of units settled decreased by 5% primarily due to the timing of projects coming to market. The average sales price per residential unit also decreased from £178,500 to £175,100, driven mainly by changes in product mix across existing projects;
- − An increase in the contribution from commercial revenue following the sale of the casino, multi-storey car park and office space at Clarence Dock, Leeds, the sale of retail space at Navigation Street, Birmingham and the sale of office and commercial space in Manchester;
- − Increasing backlog by 1,030 units through the acquisition of Monkbridge, Leeds and additional phases on the Honduras Wharf and Potato Wharf developments. The closing backlog of 4,860 represents more than three years sales. Crosby is expected to replenish and build its backlog through a combination of site acquisitions and leveraging mixed-use development opportunities from within Lend Lease.

Performance highlights for the year included:
Asia Pacific
- − The Funds Management business has performed strongly with continued support from its wholesale investor base. Two new funds were launched in the year, LLCF1 in Australia in July 2006 and ARIF in Singapore in December 2006, with the final close for this fund completed in May 2007. Funds Management profit after tax increased to A\$14.4 million due to the strong underlying performance from the Australian business combined with transaction fees associated with the launch of ARIF in Singapore;
- − Profit after tax from investment income decreased by A\$0.7 million to A\$15.4 million primarily due to a decline in the carrying value of the Group's investment in the International Distressed Debt Fund (IDDF). The Group's investment in IDDF is a legacy position related to the former REI business which is currently being wound up.
Europe
- − The Group sold its interest in GLL to its joint venture partner following a strategic review of its position. This contributed profit after tax of A\$12.6 million;
- − Profit after tax from investment income increased to A\$197.8 million principally due to profit distributions, including foreign exchange gains, from the Group's investment in the Global Fund of A\$136.6 million after tax (June 2006: A\$11.8 million).

2 Joint venture FUM includes Lend Lease's proportional share of the FUM.
FUM (excluding joint ventures) increased by A\$1.9 billion during the year. Key reasons for the increase are property acquisitions by APPF and LLCPF in Australia of A\$0.7 billion and revaluation gains in existing managed assets of A\$0.7 billion. In addition, the Group launched LLCF1 in July 2006, adding A\$0.2 billion of FUM and ARIF in December 2006, adding A\$0.4 billion of FUM.
FUM from joint venture interests declined by A\$1.1 billion due to the sale of the Group's interest in GLL. In July 2007, the Group also sold its interest in the Resolution Capital joint venture.

1 Represents Lend Lease's share of income before tax from investments net of direct expenses and allocated overhead, excluding property investment revaluations.
2 Lend Lease's share of income for June 2007 includes profit distributions of A\$137.9 million in relation to the Group's investment in the Global Fund. June 2006 includes gains on the sale of investments of A\$27.0 million. There are no gains on the sale of investments included in investment income in the current financial year.
3 Market value is based on independent valuations and is net of project-specific debt.
Lend Lease held property investments, directly or indirectly, with a market value of A\$3.4 billion at 30 June 2007.
- − Lend Lease maintains a 30% direct interest in Bluewater. The independent market value at 30 June 2007 of 100% of Bluewater increased 6% to £2,158.0 million (A\$5,200.0 million). The value of the Group's 30% direct interest in Bluewater increased by A\$77.2 million to A\$1,560.0 million. However, the revaluation gains on Bluewater are not recognised in the financial statements as the asset is treated as inventory and therefore is reflected at cost, which at 30 June 2007 was A\$596.1 million;
- − During the year Lend Lease reached agreement with Lafarge (formerly Blue Circle Industries) to provide certainty on the profit sharing arrangement on Bluewater. Lafarge will receive £25.0 million when Lend Lease sells its 30% interest in Bluewater. The amount will be discounted if a sale occurs prior to 31 December 2011 and indexed if a sale occurs post 31 December 2011. Lafarge are able to conclude the agreement at any time by calling for a £15.0 million payment indexed from 1 January 2007. The cost base of Lend Lease's interest in Bluewater includes £15.3 million at 30 June 2007 to reflect this agreement;
- − The value of Lend Lease's 50% investment in King of Prussia increased by 9% to A\$483.8 million;

Investment Management continued
Investments (continued)
- − Other retail investments increased by A\$196.7 million primarily due to the acquisition of the Somerset Central retail development in Singapore (June 2007 market value: A\$53.4 million) and revaluation increases across the portfolio;
- − As at 30 June 2007, Lend Lease owned 25% of the Somerset Central retail development directly with the remaining 75% held by ARIF. The Group completed the second and final equity close for ARIF in May 2007 and following this, Lend Lease's interest in ARIF was reduced to 10.1%;
- − Other investments decreased by A\$60.0 million due to capital returns from the Global Fund which were partially offset by the investment in LLCF1 in the year (June 2007 market value: A\$23.5 million) and revaluation increases across the portfolio.

2 Lend Lease increased its interest in APIC II to 21.1% in April 2006. Prior to this date the investment was classified as Other Financial Assets – Available for Sale and any revaluation movements were recognised in the Fair Value Revaluation Reserve.
The statutory profit includes unrealised property investment revaluations of A\$82.7 million before tax (A\$51.6 million after tax) in the year. Further revaluation gains of A\$44.9 million after tax are not included in statutory profit but are recognised in the Fair Value Revaluation Reserve in the financial statements.

Project Management, Construction and PFIs profit after tax was A\$57.6 million. As reported at December 2006, the decrease from the prior year is primarily a result of the recognition of an A\$118.8 million after tax provision taken against certain UK projects including the Manchester Joint Hospitals project.
Profit after tax for the year was negatively impacted by foreign exchange movements of A\$4.2 million.
Total revenue increased by A\$2.6 billion due to higher volumes in Asia Pacific, Europe and the Americas along with an increase in the weighting of construction services relative to fee service contracts in the Americas and the UK.
Bovis Lend Lease
Asia Pacific
Profit after tax for the Asia Pacific business increased by A\$30.8 million. Key contributions to gross profit in Australia were multi-site projects for the Commonwealth, ANZ and National Australia banks, the Rouse Hill Town Centre retail project in Sydney, the Australian Taxation Office building in Canberra, the Queensland Government Preparatory Schools Rollout and the Correctional Facilities projects in Queensland. In Asia, Japan and Taiwan continued to perform strongly off the back of telecommunication and technology projects. The effective tax rate was positively impacted by an A\$12.1 million R&D tax credit received.
Americas
Profit after tax for the Americas business of A\$65.9 million is a A\$6.6 million increase over the prior year. Profit after tax was negatively impacted by foreign exchange movements of A\$5.3 million. Excluding currency movements, profit after tax increased by 20%. GPM was negatively impacted by foreign exchange movements of A\$15.3 million, resulting in a decrease of A\$1.2 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange movements, GPM increased by 7.4% due to higher volumes of work primarily in New York, Chicago and Washington. Contributions to GPM included the BP Retail Alliance, 340 E. Randolph in Chicago and One Rincon Hill in San Francisco.
Europe
Operating profit after tax for the European business decreased by A\$110.5 million due to the provision taken against certain UK projects including the Manchester Joint Hospitals project. The Manchester Joint Hospitals project is a highly complex project involving 13 new buildings, a number of building refurbishments and a complex demolition and decanting sequence. The provision of A\$118.8 million after tax takes into account both cost overruns and delays in the expected completion date.
Outside of the UK, the European business had a solid performance with continued growth in the Gulf States, Continental and Eastern Europe, generating increases in fee service GPM.
Profitability Ratio
The strong performances in the Asia Pacific and Americas regions resulted in improved profitability ratios (defined as EBITDA divided by realised GPM) of 44% and 47% respectively (June 2006: 35% and 46% respectively).

1 Although backlog GPM is run off over several years, the average rate for the current year has been applied to the closing backlog GPM balance in its entirety as the exchange rates for later years cannot be predicted accurately. In local currency, the Americas backlog GPM was US\$234.0 million (June 2006: US\$160.4 million) and the European backlog GPM was £119.8 million (June 2006: £120.0 million).
2 Backlog GPM disclosed includes only 10 years backlog from facilities management even though PFIs contracts run for longer periods of up to 35 years. Facilities management GPM is reported in PFIs.
3 Backlog GPM for projects in preferred bidder status in 2006 related to the Lancashire Schools and Lancashire Waste projects, which reached financial close in December 2006 and March 2007 respectively.
New work secured is the total project GPM to be earned from projects secured during the year, net of margin movements. Total new work secured was impacted by a negative movement in foreign exchange of A\$23.6 million. In Europe, new work secured was impacted by the provision on UK projects taken in the first half of the financial year.
Backlog GPM is the expected GPM to be realised in future financial years from contracts committed at the end of the year. Backlog GPM was negatively impacted by foreign exchange movements of A\$28.4 million. However, even after adjusting for the impact of foreign exchange movements and the margin deterioration on UK projects Backlog GPM has increased to A\$792.9 million.

As at 30 June 2007, 59% of Bovis Lend Lease backlog GPM is projected to be realised as profit in the year to June 2008. The proportion of Bovis Lend Lease secured backlog GPM to be realised beyond 12 months marginally decreased to 41% (June 2006: 44%).
Private Finance Initiatives (PFIs)
The PFIs result includes net bid costs, facilities management GPM and returns on equity and loan stock. The PFIs result does not include construction GPM, which is included in Bovis Lend Lease. The profit after tax from PFIs was A\$14.3 million as a result of increased equity returns across the portfolio and the recovery of bid costs principally on achieving financial close of the Lancashire Schools project. The June 2006 result included a A\$19.6 million after tax profit arising from the Lend Lease and Bank of Scotland PFI joint venture where the parties equalised their investment in 11 PFI projects.

Interest Revenue and Expenses
- − Interest revenue increased by A\$54.8 million before tax due to the recognition of interest from the ATO of A\$46.0 million. This interest has been recognised following a Federal Court judgement in favour of Lend Lease on an outstanding tax dispute;
- − The interest rate on invested cash averaged 5.3% per annum for the year (June 2006: 4.2% per annum);
- − Interest expense and borrowing costs increased by A\$14.5 million before tax largely due to an increase in Group borrowings in the UK following the issue of the £300.0 million 6.125% annual coupon guaranteed notes due 12 October 2021 in the UK public bond market in October 2006;
- − At 30 June 2007 the mix of borrowings, including the Bluewater lease, was 84% at fixed rates and 16% at floating rates.
Hedging and Foreign Exchange Exposure
- − Lend Lease hedges material foreign currency cash flows. Any foreign exchange gains or losses arising on the underlying cash flow or the hedging of business unit cash flows are allocated to the business unit's operating profit;
- − Lend Lease uses natural hedging, where possible, to minimise its exposure to foreign denominated net assets. The remaining net assets are hedged at the discretion of management. The impact of foreign exchange movements on the Group's net assets is accounted for in the Foreign Currency Translation Reserve (FCTR). In the year, the FCTR decreased by A\$55.3 million, primarily due to changes in UK and USA exchange rates.

1GLA represents the gross lettable area of the centres.
2The estimated additional GLA and gross development cost is dependent on future planning approvals and is subject to commercial feasibility and approvals from joint venture partners.
3The Lend Lease ownership interest shown may change prior to or during the development.
4Lend Lease holds an indirect interest through its investment in APPF.
5 As at 30 June 2007, Lend Lease owned 25% of the Somerset Central retail development directly with the remaining 75% held by the Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund (ARIF). The Group completed the second and final equity close for ARIF in May 2007 and following this, Lend Lease's interest in ARIF was reduced to 10.1%.
6During the year, Lend Lease secured the right to acquire a 50% interest in the Park Place retail development subject to certain commercial conditions.
7 The expansion of Overgate, Dundee, has been omitted from the development pipeline at June 2007 as the anchor tenant has not yet been secured. The extension will be added to the development pipeline once the tenant is secured and the resultant scheme viability is complete.

Lend Lease Corporation Portfolio Report 2007 12

Footnotes
- 1 Represents Lend Lease's share of income earned before tax from investments net of direct expenses and allocated overhead, excluding property investment revaluations. There are no gains on sale included in investment income in the current financial year. The June 2006 comparative includes gains from the sale of investments of A\$0.2 million in Asia Pacific, A\$13.2 million in Europe and A\$13.6 million in the Americas.
- 2Market value is based on independent valuations and is net of project-specific debt.
- 3 Lend Lease holds varying proportional interests in the APPF funds. On 11 July 2007, Lend Lease sold a proportion of its interest in APPF Retail for A\$263.8 million. As at 30 June 2007, a cumulative gain of A\$32.6 million before tax was recognised in the fair value revaluation reserve relating to this interest.
- 4 As at 30 June 2007, Lend Lease owned 25% of the Somerset Central retail development directly, with the remaining 75% held by ARIF. The Group completed the second and final equity close for ARIF in May 2007 and following this, Lend Lease's interest in ARIF was reduced to 10.1%.
- 5 The independent market value at June 2007 of 100% of Bluewater was £2,158.0 million (A\$5,200.0 million). Bluewater is treated as inventory in the financial statements and is therefore reflected at cost, which at June 2007 was A\$596.1 million.
- 6Fund life is periodically extended for four years, unless investors elect otherwise. If fully extended, the Lend Lease Retail Partnership has a 40-year life ending in 2039.
- 7 Fund life is periodically extended for four years, unless investors elect otherwise. If fully extended, the Lend Lease Overgate Partnership has a 40-year life ending in 2040. Lend Lease's co-investment is required to be at least a minimum of 10% of subscribed capital to the end of the fund's life.
- 8Lend Lease's 50% interest in Warrington Retail Limited Partnership is included in the financial statements at a book value of A\$112.4 million.
- 9 Lend Lease acquired a 75% interest in the Chelmsford Meadows Unit Trust in March 2006. The Trust is consolidated in the financial statements, with 100% of the underlying property asset being recognised as an investment property at a book value of A\$233.0 million.
- 10The market value of UK assets has been translated at A\$1 = £0.415 (June 2006: A\$1 = £0.41) and the Lend Lease share of income at A\$1 = £0.406 (June 2006: A\$1 = £0.400).
- 11The market value of USA assets has been translated at A\$1 = US\$0.82 (June 2006: A\$1 = US\$0.76) and the Lend Lease share of income at A\$1 = US\$0.789 (June 2006: A\$1 = US\$0.73).

e. Events Subsequent to Balance Date
No matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial year that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of Lend Lease, the results of those operations or state of affairs of Lend Lease in subsequent financial years other than the following:
Sale of Units in Australian Prime Property Fund (APPF)
On 11 July 2007, Lend Lease sold a proportion of its interest in APPF Retail for A\$263.8 million. As at 30 June 2007, a cumulative gain of A\$32.6 million before tax was recognised in the fair value revaluation reserve relating to this interest.
Withdrawal of Australian Tax Office (ATO) appeal to Federal Court on Westpac Warrants Issue
On 10 August 2007 the ATO withdrew its appeal relating to the Federal Court's decision in December 2006 regarding Lend Lease's sale of Westpac shares.
Following the withdrawal of its appeal, the ATO will be required to repay to Lend Lease the balance of the payment Lend Lease made under the amended assessment issued in 2002, plus interest. The repayment of the monies by the ATO has no impact on earnings.
f. Likely Developments
Details of likely developments in the operations of Lend Lease in subsequent financial years are contained in the reports from the Chairman and Managing Director in the Annual Report. In the opinion of the Directors, disclosure of any further information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.
g. Environmental Regulation
Lend Lease is subject to many environmental regulations associated with real estate development, project and construction management and asset management. These regulations typically relate to emissions to air and water, waste management and protection of biodiversity.
Lend Lease businesses report quarterly on environmental regulation compliance matters, including breaches and legal or potential legal action.
The Sustainability Committee receives reports on a quarterly basis regarding any significant environmental risks and non conformance with the Environment Policy of Lend Lease. The Directors are not aware of any material non compliance issues during the period covered by this Report.
Further details are contained in the Sustainability section of the Annual Report.
3. Remuneration Report
The information provided under headings 3a. to 3f. includes remuneration disclosures that are required under Accounting Standard AASB 124 'Related Party Disclosures'. These disclosures have been transferred from the Consolidated Financial Statements and have been audited. The term 'remuneration' has been used in the Remuneration Report. This term has the same meaning as the alternative term 'compensation', as defined in AASB 124.
a. Details of Key Management Personnel and Other Executives – Audited
Key Management Personnel
Key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company and the consolidated entity, including Directors of the Company and executives.

Remuneration Philosophy
The Remuneration Policy of Lend Lease is determined by the Board on the recommendation of the Personnel and Organisation Committee. The Board recognises that Lend Lease operates in an international marketplace and as such aims to recruit, motivate and retain highly skilled employees who can operate in this environment. The policy of Lend Lease is to reward senior executives with market competitive remuneration and benefits, taking account of both Company and individual performance. In assessing these benchmarks, Lend Lease takes account of expert advice and the relevant external comparators in the real estate and related sectors and of companies of similar size, complexity and international scope. The remuneration of the Non Executive Directors is not linked to the performance of the Group in order to maintain their independence and impartiality.

Remuneration Philosophy continued
Remuneration paid by Lend Lease is designed to be appropriate and competitive in each of its business locations, having regard to local practice on issues such as incentives, pensions, superannuation and other benefits. Lend Lease also recognises the need to take account of differing costs of living, especially in relation to expatriates and this is reflected in remuneration for expatriate executives.
In determining the remuneration structure outlined in this report, the remuneration philosophy of the Board is focused on ensuring:
- − The structure is the best fit with the needs of the organisation and its strategy;
- − Remuneration levels are commensurate with appropriate external comparators;
- − Alignment of remuneration incentives with the interests of shareholders, demonstrating a clear link between reward and performance;
- − Alignment of short and long term performance targets to ensure consistent behaviour;
- − A mix of cash and share based remuneration to align the interests of executives with those of shareholders.
The approach of Lend Lease is to provide a balance of fixed and performance based remuneration with an emphasis on increasing 'at risk' remuneration. This approach is reflected in the structure of the Short Term Incentive Plan in particular for the June 2007 financial year.
The Board sets salaries at competitive levels for the relevant role, targeted around the median against comparator companies in Australia and overseas, and takes into account market conditions and personal performance over the year under review.
Market data is used to benchmark salary levels on a global scale, adjusted for local conditions. The Personnel and Organisation Committee benchmarks information available in published job matched surveys of similar companies and, if appropriate, also commissions surveys to supplement the published information. To ensure proper process is followed for all senior executives, all proposed packages for direct reports of Executive Office members and other key managers require prior approval from the Chief Executive Officer. In addition, all internal appointments with a base salary in excess of A\$300,000 in Australia, US\$220,000 in the US and £120,000 in the UK, or for whom a base salary increase of 10% or above is proposed, require prior approval from the Chief Executive Officer.
Elements of Remuneration
The remuneration framework consists of three principal elements:
- − Fixed remuneration (base salary, superannuation and other benefits);
- − Short Term Incentive (annual cash and an equity related deferral) 'at risk';
- − Long Term Incentive (cash or share based performance rights) 'at risk'.
Fixed Remuneration
The salaries of the Chief Executive Officer, the Global Chief Operating Officer and the Chief Executive Officers of the core businesses and corporate functional heads are set by the Personnel and Organisation Committee subject to approval by the Board. Salary changes usually take effect from September of each year except in the case of a new appointment. In the case of the Executive Office members and their direct reports, the Committee is assisted in this review by the Chief Executive Officer.
The other elements of fixed remuneration include those typically enjoyed in the geography where the key person or executive is employed. These may include car, medical cover, employee share plan subscriptions, superannuation and pension contributions, life and/or disability cover and in the case of international assignees, housing, schooling and tax return preparation. The value of these other benefits provided to key personnel are set out in Section 3c. of this Report. Executives are not automatically entitled to all of these benefits.

Short Term Incentives (STIs)
The STI plan is an annual bonus plan which complements the overall Remuneration Policy of Lend Lease by:
- − Rewarding individuals on meeting or exceeding preset key performance criteria;
- − Establishing key performance criteria to contribute to overall shareholder value.
Under the STI arrangement, executives receive benefits dependent on the achievement of both Lend Lease financial targets and individual personal targets. The total value of the potential benefit (target opportunity) varies by executive, but is generally linked to salary and/or related benefits.
Arrangements for the June 2007 Financial Year
The following table sets out the criteria required to be achieved for the current year STI.
| Financial Element (75%) | Personal Performance Element (25%) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| − | Represents 75% of target opportunity. | − | Represents 25% of target opportunity. |
| − | Measured against the current financial year operating profit after tax, excluding certain non recurring items (A\$413.7 million). This is measured either entirely at corporation level or a mix of corporation (40%) and business unit (60%) level depending on the role. |
− | Measured against targets specific to each executive's business unit and function. |
| − | Upside opportunity can be increased to +25% of target opportunity for +10% of target performance achievement. |
Depending on the level of performance achieved, the benefit is delivered to executives as follows:
STI Cash Element
- − Proportion of STI received as cash is determined specifically for each executive (see table below);
- − Cash payment in September following year end.
STI Deferred Element
- − Lend Lease shares or equivalent share value in cash based on share price at the date of determination of the bonuses;
- − The shares (or share value if shares are not practicable) are then held in trust on behalf of the executive for the deferral period;
- − For executives to receive the full deferral they must be employed by the Group at the date of vesting of the deferral element. The usual deferral period will be one year from the date of the grant.1
1 This period may be shortened if an executive is a 'good leaver', that is, an executive who leaves employment by reason of death, total and permanent disability, redundancy or other reason as outlined by the Personnel and Organisation Committee.
The split of the cash and the deferred elements for Executive Directors and executives for the June 2007 financial year is as follows:
| June 2007 STI Cash Element – Maximum Opportunity |
June 2007 STI Deferred Element – Maximum Opportunity |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| % | % | Calculated Based On | |
| G Clarke | 119 | 59 | Base salary |
| R Taylor | 83 | 59 | Total package value |
| Other key personnel and executives | 30 – 107 | 18 – 36 | Australia: Total package value |
| UK and USA: Base salary |
Total package value equates to base salary and other benefits plus superannuation.

Future Arrangements
For the forthcoming year, the Personnel and Organisation Committee has further aligned the criteria for the STI to the performance of the executive. The changes to the 2007 STI arrangements are:
- − Financial element for business unit heads, the financial element is split between the operating profit after tax (adjusted for significant one off, non recurring items) of the executive's business unit (twothirds of financial element) and other value drivers for each executive's business unit (onethird of financial element);
- − Qualitative bonus qualifiers for any part of the bonus to be paid, each executive must demonstrate achievement of either the corporate or business unit specific annual plan relating to both Incident and Injury Free and Sustainability.
Long Term Incentives (LTIs)
The current LTIs of Lend Lease were introduced and approved by the Board in 1999 and updated and extended for awards from 2001 onwards. The objectives of the LTIs are essentially twofold:
- − Aligning executives with the long term interests of Lend Lease and its shareholders;
- − Attracting and retaining executives of high calibre by providing competitive rewards that relate to the performance of both the individual executive and the Lend Lease share price.
LTI grants are normally made in July each year and are based on competitive remuneration practice. LTIs are settled in cash or Lend Lease shares, with settlement occurring upon vesting if performance hurdles are met. Grants depend on personal contribution and potential and are designed to retain and motivate high performing key executives. The LTIs are in the form of an Australian dollar figure 'grant', which is notionally 'invested' in performance shares (PS) over time to deliver value depending on:
- − Whether the executive remains with the Group if the executive resigns before vesting, the grant will lapse;
- − The performance of the Group.
The Personnel and Organisation Committee approved one change to the rules of the LTIs for the 2005 awards onwards. The rules now allow that, in the event of a change in control of Lend Lease, all awards will vest upon change in control, to the extent that performance conditions have been met. Senior executives would then be entitled to a pro rata settlement, with the Board having discretion to allow the entitlement to exceed this pro rata amount.
Arrangements for LTIs granted in the Financial Years 2005 and 2006
For awards granted on 1 July 2004 and 1 July 2005, the performance hurdles are based on the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) against a basket of international comparator companies. Under these awards, the performance hurdle required TSR to achieve at least median against several comparator companies of Lend Lease. The comparator companies for these awards were: Amec, Atkins WS, Balfour Beatty, British Land, Centex, Hochtief, Jacobs Engineering, Jarvis, Jones Lang LaSalle, Land Securities, Lennar, Leighton Holdings, Liberty International, Mowlem, Skanska, Taylor Woodrow, United Group and Westfield Group.
A full list of the specific criteria that apply to LTIs granted is detailed in Section 3d. of this Report.
There is no retesting permitted under the LTI.
Arrangements for the June 2007 Financial Year – Additional Performance Hurdle
For the June 2007 financial year awards, the Personnel and Organisation Committee set new performance hurdles to align interests between the participant and shareholders and for consistency with the new STI structure.
For awards granted in 2006 onwards, the performance hurdle is based on two equal measures: long term profitability as measured by Earnings Per Share (EPS) and external TSR compared to the TSR of the individual ASX100 listed companies as at the commencement of the performance period. The change in the TSR comparator group better reflects those companies against which Lend Lease competes for capital.

Long Term Incentives (LTIs) continued
The performance measures are:
- − TSR measured against the ASX100 companies (with 50% vesting at median performance, rising proportionately to 100% on reaching top quartile performance);
- − EPS on operating profit after tax reported in the financial statements adjusted for treasury shares (with 100% vesting if a minimum compound annual growth rate of 10% is achieved over the three year performance period).
Each of the two performance hurdles is measured and can vest independently. The executive must ordinarily remain with the Company until the vesting date for the award to vest.
For the 2006 award, it is intended that these awards will vest in Company shares rather than cash, other than for executives specifically identified or in circumstances where share settlement is not practicable.
There continues to be no retesting under the LTI.
Details of the terms of the awards on issue during the 2007 financial year are summarised below.
| Plan | LTI – June 2004 | LTI – June 2005 | LTI – June 2006 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grant date | 18 August 2004 | 17 August 2005 | 16 August 2006 |
| Service period1 | 1 July 2004 – 30 June 2007 (3 years) |
1 July 2005 – 30 June 2008 (3 years) |
1 July 2006 – 30 June 2009 (3 years) |
| Performance condition(s): |
1. TSR of Lend Lease against the TSR of several comparator companies of Lend Lease. Performance measured over the three year performance period. |

| Each of the two performance conditions may vest independently. |
|||
| Method of award settlement |
Cash | Cash or shares | Shares, except for pre specified executives |

Hedging in Relation to LTI Awards
The Company prohibits executives from entering into pre vesting hedging arrangements in relation to LTI awards. For awards made in the June 2007 financial year onwards, it is an explicit condition for awards to vest that executives declare that they have not entered into any such arrangement.
Retention Awards
When the Board believes an employee is an outstanding performer and the Company and its shareholders will gain from further incentivising him or her to remain with Lend Lease, a retention award may be made. As an incentive to remain with the Company requires a degree of certainty of value delivered to the individual at the end of the retention period, performance conditions are not generally applied to the ultimate payment of such an award. Details of the current awards for each specified executive are included in LTIs as part of the remuneration details disclosed in this Report.
Superannuation/Pension Plans
Pension plan arrangements are in place in most international locations. In the past, executives (and other employees) joined either a defined benefit or a defined contribution plan. Entry into all defined benefit plans has now ceased across the Group. All new Executive Directors and executives have the opportunity to join defined contribution plans.
Relationship of Remuneration to Company Performance
In considering the Group's performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Personnel and Organisation Committee, when setting the criteria for STI and LTI awards, has regard to the financial performance of the Group. The performance in respect of these measures for the current financial year and previous four financial years is summarised in the following table:
| AIFRS | Previous GAAP | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2007 | 2006 | 2005 | 2004 | 2003 | |||
| Statutory profit/(loss) after tax1 | A\$m | 497.5 | 415.2 | 210.7 | 333.5 | (714.8) | |
| Operating profit after tax1 | A\$m | 413.7 | 354.2 | 310.42 | 255.93 | 230.24 | |
| Earnings per share5 | cents | 120.5 | 96.1 | n/a | n/a | n/a | |
| Dividends paid and declared | A\$m | 308.5 | 243.7 | 227.2 | 177.4 | 129.4 | |
| Increase/(decrease) in closing share price6 | A\$ | 4.55 | 1.03 | 2.68 | 1.93 | (2.19) |
1 Statutory profit/(loss) after tax represents profit attributable to the equity holders of the parent. Operating profit after tax excludes unrealised property investment revaluations of A\$51.6 million after tax for the June 2007 financial year (A\$61.0 million after tax for the June 2006 financial year) and excludes certain non recurring items (June 2007: ATO interest of A\$32.2 million after tax).
2 June 2005 is based on operating results excluding gains on exiting the REI businesses (A\$11.6 million after tax), cost savings implementation expenses (A\$47.7 million after tax), Lend Lease/GPT merger and net separation costs (A\$19.4 million after tax) and write off of GPT and Homemaker management agreements (A\$44.2 million after tax).
- 3 Consistent with June 2005, June 2004 operating results have been restated to also exclude the impact of Group restructuring and merger costs (A\$18.5 million after tax). June 2004 was based on operating results excluding the profit from the sale of IBMGSA (A\$79.7 million after tax), impact of exiting the REI businesses (A\$2.3 million loss after tax) and capital loss tax benefits arising from Australian tax consolidations (A\$18.7 million after tax) and including capital loss tax benefits (A\$13.0 million recouped against the capital gain on sale of IBMGSA).
- 4 June 2003 excludes the write down of REI businesses of A\$945.0 million after tax.
- 5 For 2006 LTI awards, one vesting condition is EPS, as defined in this financial report (excluding treasury shares) adjusted for unrealised property investment revaluations (unless assets have been sold).
- 6 For LTI awards, the starting and ending share prices are based on the average daily closing price over the award period (five consecutive trading days for the 2004 LTI and three months for the 2005 and 2006 LTIs). The table above represents the movement in the closing share price on 30 June of each financial year.
Operating profit after tax is considered in setting the STI targets while dividends, changes in share price and return of capital are included in the TSR calculation, which is one of the performance hurdles assessed for the LTI.
The Personnel and Organisation Committee considers that the aforementioned external performancelinked remuneration structure is appropriate because it:
- − Represents shareholders' 'bottom line' and provides an objective measure of value created for shareholders;
- − Is independent of accounting policies and accepted by institutional investors;
- − Is simple to benchmark externally.

Non Executive Directors
Directors' fees have been set at A\$140,000 per annum with a fee of A\$15,000 for service on each Board Committee other than the Nomination Committee. Fee levels are in line with international benchmarks for a company the size of Lend Lease. Current Chairman's fees are A\$500,000, the Chairman of the Risk Management and Audit Committee receives an additional A\$35,000 per annum and the Chairmen of each the Nomination, Personnel and Organisation and Sustainability Committees receive an additional A\$25,000.
In addition, Non Executive Directors are compensated for time spent travelling to overseas Board and Board Committee meetings. This additional time is compensated as follows:
- − Travel less than four hours Nil;
- − Travel between four and 12 hours A\$2,000 each way;
- − Travel over 12 hours A\$5,000 each way.
To allow Directors to receive some of their annual remuneration in shares rather than cash, and thus align their interests with those of shareholders, a Non Executive Directors' Share Ownership Plan was approved at the 2000 Annual General Meeting and subsequently renewed at the 2003 Annual General Meeting. This plan allows Directors to acquire Lend Lease shares by forgoing an amount of Directors' fees equivalent to the value of the shares acquired. Subscriptions are made at the same price, at the same time and otherwise on the same terms as the Share Purchase Plan available to Australian and New Zealand registered shareholders and only while the Share Purchase Plan is operative. A Director is restricted from dealing with these shares until retirement. However, a Director may deal with shares at an earlier time to the extent necessary to meet an earlier tax liability in respect of the shares. This Plan has not been operative during the suspension of the Share Purchase Plan (since September 2003).
Retirement Plan
The Retirement Plan is designed to provide retirement benefits for Directors based on fees for Board service. Benefits are accrued in Lend Lease shares and will fluctuate in line with the value of Lend Lease shares. Under the plan, the Company will issue to, or acquire for, or for the benefit of, each Non Executive Director a number of Lend Lease shares equal in value to 0.2 times the Director's fees (being fees for attending and chairing Board and Board Committee meetings), but not additional fees.
Allocations are made in arrears on 1 January each year. For this purpose, the value of the shares on acquisition will be the weighted average price of Lend Lease shares traded on the Australian Securities Exchange during the five business days prior to 1 January each year. The shares will be accessible only on retirement. Directors will be exposed to share price risk until this time. However, shares may be sold at an earlier time to the extent necessary to meet an earlier tax liability in respect of the shares.
Retirement Plan Changeover Arrangements
A defined benefit Retirement Benefit Plan ('previous plan') was approved by shareholders at the 1990 Annual General Meeting. Changeover arrangements which were approved by shareholders at the 2000 Annual General Meeting have been effected to transition from the previous plan to the current plan for Directors who were on the Board on 31 December 2000. Under these arrangements, retiring Non Executive Directors will receive a multiple applied to the average of their annual emoluments (i.e. Directors' fees and amounts for additional services) over the previous three years. The multiple is 0.6 for each of the first five years of service as a Non Executive Director and 0.2 for each year over five years to 15 years. This multiple for each Director was frozen at the multiple that would have applied if the Director had retired on 31 December 2000.
The following table sets out the accrued retirement benefits under the previous plan as at 30 June 2007 (based on the multiple being frozen on 31 December 2000). The Board has resolved to cap the entitlements under the previous plan at the lower of the accrued retirement benefit as at 30 June 2003 (with interest payable at the 60day bank bill rate) and the retirement benefit calculated at the actual date of retirement.
| Non Executive Directors | Years of Service at 31 December 2000 |
Accrued Retirement Benefit at 30 June 2007 A\$ |
Accrued Retirement Benefit at 30 June 2006 A\$ |
|---|---|---|---|
| G Edington | 1 | 111,249 | 92,467 |
| P Goldmark | 1 | 123,452 | 104,832 |
Non Executive Directors appointed since 1 January 2001 are not eligible to participate in the previous plan.

d. Long Term Incentives and Retentions – Audited
The following criteria apply to all parts of Section 3d. of this Report.
Criteria 1: The ability to achieve the LTI is dependent upon the executive remaining with Lend Lease. If the executive resigns before vesting, the grant will lapse.
Criteria 2: The award is dependent upon service to vesting date, however, an early redemption date due to cessation of service may result in a pro rata payout.
Criteria 3: Progressive percentage monthly vesting of award over the respective award service life. (Refer to Section 3e. of this Report for details of Mr Clarke's retention).
Criteria 4: Forfeiture on resignation. Pro rata on other service cessation.
Criteria 5: The TSR of Lend Lease is greater than the median TSR of 18 comparator companies (with 25% vesting at median performance rising to 100% on reaching top quartile performance).
Criteria 6: The TSR of Lend Lease measured against the ASX100 companies (with 50% vesting at median performance, rising to 100% on reaching top quartile performance).
Criteria 7: The EPS of Lend Lease as reported in the financial statements adjusted for treasury shares and unrealised gains or loses (with 100% vesting if a minimum compound annual growth rate of 10% over the three year performance period).

3 Current award expensed represents the 2007 year accrued value of the LTI or retentions determined by actuarial analysis. The aggregate for each key person's grant is shown in Section 3c. of this Report under 'LTIs Cash Settled' or 'Equity Settled'.
4The % forfeited during the year represents a reduction in the number of performance shares available to vest due to the highest level performance criteria not being achieved.
5The minimum value of grants yet to vest is A\$nil as the performance and service criteria may not be met and consequently the grant may not vest.
6The maximum value of grants yet to vest is not determinable as it is dependent on the market price of shares of the Company on the Australian Securities Exchange at the date the grant vests.

4The % forfeited during the year represents a reduction in the number of performance shares available to vest due to the highest level performance criteria not being achieved.
5The minimum value of grants yet to vest is A\$nil as the performance and service criteria may not be met and consequently the grant may not vest.
6The maximum value of grants yet to vest is not determinable as it is dependent on the market price of shares of the Company on the Australian Securities Exchange at the date the grant vests.

f. Additional Information – Audited
Additional information in relation to key management personnel's equity holdings and transactions, loans and other transactions is contained in Note 35 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.
4. Other
a. Share Options
No share options were issued during the year by the Company or any of its controlled entities, and there are no such options on issue.
b. Indemnification and Insurance of Directors and Officers
The Company's Constitution provides for indemnification in favour of each of the Directors named on pages 1 to 3 of this Report, the Company Secretaries, Mr W Hara and Ms S J Sharpe, and officers of the Company or of wholly owned subsidiaries or related entities of the Company ('Officers') to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.
For related entities, the indemnification is provided unless the Directors determine otherwise. For unrelated entities in which Lend Lease has an interest, deeds of indemnity may be entered into between Lend Lease Corporation Limited and the Director or Officer. Since the date of the last report, the Company has not entered into any separate deeds of indemnity.
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, the Constitution also permits the Company to purchase and maintain insurance or pay or agree to pay a premium for insurance for Officers against any liability incurred as an officer of the Company or of a related body corporate. This may include a liability for reasonable costs and expenses incurred in defending proceedings, whether civil or criminal, and whatever their outcome. During the year, Lend Lease paid insurance premiums of A\$564,323 in respect of its Directors' and Officers' liability policies. Due to confidentiality obligations and undertakings of the policy, no further details in respect of the premium or policy can be disclosed.
4. Other continued
c. Non Audit Services
During the year KPMG, the Company's auditor, performed certain other services in addition to its statutory duties.
The Board has considered the non audit services provided during the year by the auditor and, in accordance with written advice provided by resolution of the Risk Management and Audit Committee, is satisfied that the provision of those non audit services during the year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
- − All non audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the Risk Management and Audit Committee to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor;
- − The non audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 'Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants', as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards.
A copy of the Lead Auditor's Independence Declaration as required under Section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is included at the end of this Report.
Details of the amounts paid to the auditor of the Company, KPMG, and its related practices for audit and non audit services provided during the year are set out below.

1. Significant Accounting Policies
Lend Lease Corporation Limited (the 'Company') is domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2007 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the 'consolidated entity' or the 'Group') and the consolidated entity's interest in associates and jointly controlled entities.
The financial report was authorised for issue by the Directors on 15 August 2007.
a. Statement of Compliance
The consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial report of the Group also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and Interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board.
b. Basis of Preparation
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and is prepared under the historical cost basis except for the following assets and liabilities which are stated at their fair value: derivative financial instruments, investments held for trading, investments available for sale, investment property and liabilities for cash settled share based compensation plans. Recognised assets and liabilities that are hedged are stated at fair value in respect of the risk that is hedged.
The preparation of a financial report that complies with Australian Accounting Standards requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.
These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Information about critical accounting judgements in applying the Group's accounting policies is set out in Accounting Policy Note 1ad.
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all financial years presented in the consolidated financial statements and by all entities in the consolidated entity. The Group has elected to early adopt revised AASB 101 'Presentation of Financial Statements' (October 2006).
Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.
Basis of Consolidation
The Group consolidation comprises all entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or convertible are taken into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
Intragroup balances and transactions, and any unrealised gains or losses arising from intragroup transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Investments in subsidiaries are carried at their cost of acquisition in the Company's financial statements. The Company sponsors a number of employee benefit vehicles, including employee share plans. Under AASBs, these vehicles, while not legally controlled, are required to be consolidated for accounting purposes.
c. New Accounting Standards
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the financial year ended 30 June 2007 but are available for early adoption. The Group has not applied the following standards in preparing this financial report. The Group's assessment of these new standards and interpretations is set out below:
- − AASB 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures' and AASB 200510 'Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards'. AASB7 and AASB 200510 are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2007. Application of these standards will not affect any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements, but will impact the type of information disclosed particularly in relation to the Group's financial instruments.
- − AASB 8 'Operating Segments' and AASB 20073 'Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 8'. AASB 8 and AASB 20073 are applicable to annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2009. These standards replace the presentation requirements of segment reporting in AASB 114 'Segment Reporting'. The standards are only concerned with disclosure information and application will not affect the financial results of the Group.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
c. New Accounting Standards continued
− AASB 20074 'Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards Arising From ED151 and Other Amendments'. AASB 20074 is applicable to annual reporting periods on or after 1 July 2007 and must therefore be applied to the Group's June 2008 financial report. This standard allows all options available under IFRS to be available under Australian Accounting Standards. This standard makes amendments to a number of Australian Accounting Standards to introduce various accounting policy options, delete various disclosures presently required and to make a number of editorial amendments.
While a large number of Australian Accounting Standards are amended by AASB 20074, the key accounting policy options it introduces relate to the accounting for jointly controlled entities using the proportionate consolidation method and the presentation of the cash flow statement.
At the date of preparation of this financial report, the Directors of the Company have not decided on which optional accounting treatments will be adopted on the initial application of AASB 20074. Accordingly, the potential financial impact of AASB 20074 on the financial statements is yet to be evaluated. It is expected that in the Group's June 2008 financial report, certain information may no longer be disclosed, or may be disclosed in an alternative manner.
- − AASB Interpretation 10 'Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment'. Interpretation 10 will be mandatory for the Group's June 2008 financial report. The interpretation prohibits the reversal of an impairment loss recognised in a previous interim period in respect of goodwill, an investment in an equity instrument or a financial asset carried at cost. The interpretation is not expected to impact the Group or Company's financial statements.
- − AASB Interpretation 11 'AASB 2 Share based Payment Group and Treasury Share Transactions' and AASB 20071 'Amendments to Australian Standards arising from AASB Interpretation 11' (AASB 2). AASB Interpretation 11 and AASB 20071 are mandatory for the Group's June 2008 financial report. They address the classification of a share based payment transaction (as equity or cash settled), in the financial statements of the entity receiving the services. The interpretation is not expected to impact the Group or Company's financial statements.
- − AASB Interpretation 12 'Service Concession Arrangements' and AASB 20072 'Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB Interpretation 12'. AASB Interpretation 12 and AASB 20072 are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008. They address the accounting for service concession operators, but not grantors, for public to private service concession arrangements. The potential effect of Interpretation 12 and AASB 20072 on the Group's financial statements is yet to be determined.
d. Revenue, Other Income and Profits
Revenue and Profits from the Sale of Development Properties
Revenue and profits from the sale of development properties is recognised in the income statement when:
- − The significant risks and rewards have been transferred to the buyer;
- − The Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the development properties sold;
- − The revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that the Group will receive the consideration due; and
- − The Group can measure reliably the costs incurred or to be incurred.
Revenue from the Provision of Services
Revenue for the provision of services is recognised in the income statement in proportion to the stage of completion of the transactions at the balance sheet date:
- − For property construction: the value of work performed using the percentage complete method, which is measured by reference to actual costs to date as a percentage of total forecast costs for each contract;
- − For property and funds management: property development and management fee entitlements for services rendered; and
- − For management of retirement villages: deferred management fees are recognised on an accruals basis based on a present value (or discounted) assessment of revenue earned from the management agreements on retirement villages at current sales values.
Dividends
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established, usually on declaration of the dividend.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
d. Revenue, Other Income and Profits continued
Rental Income
Rental income is recognised in the income statement on a straightline basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is more appropriate. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental income.
Net Gains or Losses on Sale of Investments
Net gains or losses on sale of investments are recognised when an unconditional contract is in place.
Interest Income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest method. When a receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loans is recognised either as cash is collected or on a cost recovery basis as conditions warrant.
e. Income Taxes
Income tax on the profit or loss for the financial year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly to equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the financial year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous financial years.
Deferred tax is measured using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: the initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. Measurement of deferred tax is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
The Company is the head entity in the Australian Tax Consolidated Group comprising all the Australian wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company entered the Australian Tax Consolidation Regime effective 1 July 2002.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the Company also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from the Australian wholly owned subsidiaries of the Australian Tax Consolidated Group (after elimination of intragroup transactions).
The Australian Tax Consolidated Group has entered into a tax funding arrangement that requires wholly owned Australian subsidiaries to make contributions to the Company for tax liabilities and deferred tax balances arising from external transactions occurring after the implementation of tax consolidation. The contributions are broadly calculated as if each entity paid tax on a stand alone basis.
The assets and liabilities arising under the Australian tax funding arrangement are recognised as intercompany assets and liabilities (at call) with a consequential adjustment to income tax expense/revenue.
f. Impairment
The carrying amounts of the Group's assets, investment properties (see Accounting Policy Note 1h.), inventories (see Accounting Policy Note 1n.) and deferred tax assets (see Accounting Policy Note 1e.) are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement unless an asset has been previously revalued through reserves.
Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash generating unit (or group of units) and then to reduce the carrying amount of other assets in the unit (or group of units) on a pro rata basis.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
f. Impairment continued
Calculation of Recoverable Amount
The recoverable amount of the Group's investments in held to maturity securities and receivables is calculated as the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate inherent in the asset. Cashflows relating to short term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial (see Accounting Policy Note 1l.).
The recoverable amount of other assets is the greater of their fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the assets. For assets that do not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit to which each asset belongs.
Reversals of Impairment
An impairment loss in respect of a held to maturity security or receivable is reversed if a subsequent increase in the recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, an impairment loss is reversed when there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there has been a change in estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.
An impairment loss is reversed (other than goodwill) only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
g. Investments
The Group classifies its investments in debt and equity securities in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity investments, and available for sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired.
Financial Assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss
This category has two subcategories: financial assets held for trading, and those designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term or if so designated by management. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realised within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
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 arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of trading the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date.
Held to Maturity Investments
Held to maturity investments are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Group's management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity.
Available for Sale Financial Assets
Available for sale financial assets are non derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any other category. They are included in non current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
Recognition and Measurement Criteria
Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on trade date – the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Investments are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. Available for sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables and held to maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' category are included in the income statement in the financial year in which they arise. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of non monetary securities classified as available for sale are recognised in equity. When securities classified as available for sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments are included in the income statement as gains or losses from investment securities.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
g. Investments continued
Recognition and Measurement Criteria continued
The fair values of quoted investments are based on current bid prices. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Group establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm's length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, and discounted cash flow analysis.
At each balance sheet date the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the securities are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available for sale financial assets, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement.
h. Investment Properties
Investment properties are stated at fair value based on periodic, but at least triennial valuations by external independent valuers. It is the policy of the Group to review the carrying value of each property every six months. Fair value is based on current prices in an active market for similar properties in the same location and condition. If this information is not available, the Group uses alternative calculation methods such as discounted cash flow projections or recent prices on less active markets. Any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value is recognised in the income statement. Rental income from investment properties is accounted for as described in Accounting Policy Note 1d.
When an item of owner occupied property, plant and equipment (see Accounting Policy Note 1o.) becomes an investment property following a change in its use, any difference arising at the date of transfer between the carrying amount of the item and its fair value is recognised directly in equity if it is a gain. Upon disposal of the item, the gain is transferred to retained earnings. Any loss is recognised in the income statement immediately.
When an item of self constructed property, plant and equipment becomes an investment property following a change in its use, any difference between the fair value of the property at that date and its previous carrying amount is recognised in the income statement.
Expenses capitalised to properties may include the cost of acquisition, additions, refurbishments, redevelopments, borrowing costs and fees incurred.
i. Associates
Associates (including partnerships) are entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over financial and operating policies. The consolidated financial statements include the Group's share of the total recognised gains and losses of associates on an equity accounted basis, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. Investments in associates are carried at the lower of the equity accounted carrying amount and the recoverable amount. When the Group's share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the associate, the carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred obligations in respect of the associate.
Dividends from associates represent a return on the Group's investment and as such are applied as a reduction to the carrying value of the investment.
Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates are eliminated against the investment in the associate to the extent of the Group's interest in the entity. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
j. Joint Venture Entities
A joint venture entity is an entity which has a contractual arrangement whereby two or more parties undertake an economic activity which is subject to joint control.
Investments in joint venture entities are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in joint venture entities are carried at the lower of the equity accounted carrying amount and recoverable amount.
Lend Lease's share of joint venture entities' profit or loss after tax is recognised in the income statement from the date joint control commences until the date joint control ceases. Other movements in joint venture entities' reserves are recognised directly in consolidated reserves.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
j. Joint Venture Entities continued
Unrealised gains arising from transactions with joint venture entities are eliminated against the investment in the joint venture to the extent of the Group's interest in the entity. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
k. Joint Venture Operations
A joint venture operation is a joint venture that is not in the form of an entity. The Group's interest in an unincorporated joint venture is brought to account by including its interest in the following amounts in the appropriate categories in the balance sheet and income statement:
- − Each of the individual assets employed in the joint venture;
- − Liabilities incurred by the consolidated entity in relation to the joint venture and the liabilities for which it is jointly and/or severally liable;
- − Expenses incurred in relation to the joint venture;
- − Revenue earned in relation to the joint venture.
l. Trade and Other Receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Cash flows relating to short term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial.
A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and fair value, which is estimated as the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the provision is recognised in the income statement.
m. Pre Contract and Project Bidding Costs
The Group expenses all pre contract and project bidding costs, unless there is a high degree of certainty that a contract will be entered into (at least preferred bidder status) and that the costs will be fully recoverable from contract revenues. Costs previously expensed are not subsequently reinstated when a contract award is achieved.
n. Inventories
Property Held for Sale
Property acquired for development and sale in the ordinary course of business is carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. The cost of property held for sale is based on the weighted average principle and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and condition, including borrowing costs incurred. Property expected to be sold within 12 months of the end of the financial year is classified as current inventory.
The net realisable value of each holding is assessed at each financial year and a provision for diminution in value is raised by the Directors where cost (including costs to complete) exceeds net realisable value. In determining net realisable value, the Directors have regard to independent valuations obtained in accordance with Accounting Policy Note 1h.
Construction and Development Work in Progress
The gross amount of construction and development work in progress consists of costs attributable to work performed together with emerging profit and after providing for any foreseeable losses.
o. Property, Plant and Equipment
Owned Assets
Items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost or deemed cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Accounting Policy Note 1f.). The cost of selfconstructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of production overheads.
Property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property is classified as property, plant and equipment and stated at cost until construction or development is complete, at which time it is reclassified as investment property.
Where an item of property, plant and equipment comprises components having different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment.
The residual value, useful life and depreciation method applied to an asset are reassessed at least annually.
Lend Lease Corporation Annual Consolidated Financial Report 2007 11
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
o. Property, Plant and Equipment continued
Leased Assets
Leases in which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Plant and equipment acquired by way of finance lease is stated at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Accounting Policy Note 1f.).
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases.
Subsequent Expenditure
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial year in which they are incurred.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straightline basis over the estimated useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment, and major components that are accounted for separately. Amortisation is provided on leasehold improvements over the remaining term of the lease. Most plant is depreciated over a period not exceeding 10 years, furniture and fittings over 15 years, motor vehicles over eight years and computer equipment over three years. Land is not depreciated.
p. IT Software Systems
Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives (three to five years).
Costs associated with developing or maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs directly associated with producing of identifiable and unique software products consolidated by the Group, and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets. Direct costs include software development, employee costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.
Computer software development costs recognised as assets are amortised over their estimated useful lives (not exceeding three years).
q. Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group's share of the net identifiable assets and contingent liabilities of the acquired subsidiary/associate at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets as goodwill. Goodwill on acquisitions of associates is included in the carrying value of investments in associates. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortised. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.
For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to cash generating units (or groups of cash generating units) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combinations, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units or groups of units.
Management Agreements and Other Intangible Assets
Management agreements and other intangible assets acquired by the Group are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses (see Accounting Policy Note 1f.). Amortisation is charged to the income statement on a straightline basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets, which is ten years for management rights.
r. Employee Benefits
Superannuation/Pension Obligations
Group companies operate various superannuation and pension schemes. The schemes are generally funded through payments to insurance companies or trusteeadministered funds, determined by periodic actuarial calculations. The Group has both defined benefit and defined contribution plans. A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that defines the amount of pension benefit an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service and compensation. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
r. Employee Benefits continued
Superannuation/Pension Obligations continued
The asset and liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised actuarial gains or losses and past service costs. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of high quality corporate or government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability.
All actuarial gains and losses as at 1 July 2004, the date of transition to Australian International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS), were recognised. In respect of actuarial gains and losses that arise subsequent to 1 July 2004 in calculating the consolidated entity's obligation in respect of a plan, to the extent that any cumulative unrecognised actuarial gain or loss exceeds 10% of the greater of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets, that portion is recognised in the income statement over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plan. Otherwise, the actuarial gain or loss is not recognised in the income statement, it is recognised in the balance sheet against the defined benefit plan asset or liability.
Past service costs are recognised immediately in the income statement, unless the changes to the pension plan are conditional on the employees remaining in service for a specified period of time (the vesting period). In this case, past service costs are amortised on a straightline basis over the vesting period.
For defined contribution plans, the Group pays contributions to publicly or privately administered superannuation/pension insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as an employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
Current Employee Entitlements
The provisions for employee entitlements to wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave represent present obligations resulting from employees' services provided up to the balance date, calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group expects to pay at each balance date, including related oncosts. Non accumulating non monetary benefits, such as medical care, housing, cars and free or subsidised goods and services, are expensed based on the net marginal cost to the consolidated entity as the benefits are taken by the employees.
Non Current Employee Entitlements
The provision for employee entitlements to long service leave represents the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made resulting from employees' services provided up to balance date. Consideration is given to expected future increases in wage and salary rates including related oncosts and expected settlement dates based on turnover history.
Share Based Compensation
The Group operates cash settled and equity settled share based compensation plans that are referable to Lend Lease's share price. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant is recognised as an expense and a corresponding liability (if cash settled) or a corresponding increase in equity (if equity settled). The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the services granted. At each balance sheet date, the entity revises its estimates of the entitlement due. It recognises the impact of revision of original estimates, if any, in the income statement, and a corresponding adjustment to a liability (in the case of cash settled) or equity (in the case of equity settled) over the remaining vesting period. Changes in entitlement for equity settled plans are not recognised if they fail to vest due to market conditions not being met.
Termination Benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminating the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after balance date are discounted to present value.
Profit Sharing and Bonus Plans
The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit sharing, based on a formula that takes into consideration the profit attributable to the Company's shareholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognises a provision when contractually obliged or when there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
s. Trade and Other Payables
Trade Creditors
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Group. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 60 days. Trade and other payables are stated at amortised cost or cost when the impact of discounting would be immaterial.
Insurance Claims
A liability for outstanding claims is recognised in respect of Lend Lease's wholly owned special purpose captive insurance subsidiary. The liability covers claims incurred but not yet paid, claims incurred but not reported and the anticipated direct and indirect costs of settling those claims. The liability for outstanding claims is measured at the present value of the expected future payments, reflecting the fact that all the claims do not have to be paid out in the immediate future. The discount rates used are risk free rates.
Financial Guarantee Contracts
Financial guarantee contracts, including the Company guarantees of Group entities' borrowings, are recognised when issued as a financial liability. The liability is measured initially at fair value and subsequently at the higher of the best estimate to settle the obligation (see Accounting Policy Note 1w.) and the initial fair value less accumulated amortisation. Fair value is determined using a probability weighted discounted cash flow approach.
Change in Accounting Policy
The policy of recognising financial guarantee contracts as financial liabilities was adopted in the current financial year. Previously, such contracts were only recognised as a liability if settlement was considered probable.
The change in accounting policy was necessary following the change to AASB 139 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement' made by AASB 20059 'Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards'. The new policy has been applied retrospectively and comparative information has been restated.
The change in accounting policy increased the Company's related party receivables by A\$80.9 million (2006: A\$37.9 million), other financial liabilities by A\$80.9 million (2006: A\$35.9 million) and retained earnings by A\$2.0 million.
The Company's current year profit decreased by A\$2.0 million (2006: A\$2.0 million income), reflecting the amortisation of the financial guarantees and changes in the value of the receivable.
The change has no impact on the Group's net profit or earnings per share.
t. Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost and any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Preference shares, which are mandatorily redeemable on a specific date, are classified as liabilities. The dividends on preference shares are recognised in the income statement as interest expense.
The fair value of the liability portion of a convertible bond is determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non convertible bond. The amount is recognised as a liability on an amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or maturity of the bond. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option. This is recognised in equity, net of income tax.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance date.
u. Foreign Currency Translation
Functional and Presentation Currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ('the functional currency'). The consolidated financial report is presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company's functional and presentation currency.
Transactions and Balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains or losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement, except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges in foreign operations.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
u. Foreign Currency Translation continued
Transactions and Balances continued
Translation differences on non monetary items, such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss, are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non monetary items, such as equities classified as available for sale financial assets, are included in the fair value reserve in equity.
Group Companies
The results and balance sheet of all Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency (A\$) are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
- − Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;
- − Income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions);
- − All resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings and other currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to the Foreign Currency Translation Reserve. When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are recognised in the income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.
The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operating, financing and investing activities. In accordance with its Treasury policy, the Group does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and subsequently remeasured at their fair value. Recognition of any resultant gain or loss depends on the nature of the item being hedged.
The fair value of interest rate swaps is the estimated amount the Group would receive or pay to terminate the swap at the balance sheet date, taking into account current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the swap counterparties. The fair value of forward exchange contracts is their value at the current quoted forward price at the balance sheet date.
v. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
Hedging Derivatives
Fair Value Hedge
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognised in the income statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.
Cash Flow Hedge
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recognised in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement.
Amounts accumulated in equity are recycled to the income statement in the years when the hedged item will affect profit or loss (for instance, when the forecast sale that is hedged takes place). However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non financial asset (for example, inventory) or a liability, the gains or losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the asset or liability.
When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the income statement. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the income statement.
Net Investment Hedge
Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for similarly to cash flow hedges. Any gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in equity; the gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement.
Gains or losses accumulated in equity are included in the income statement on disposal of the foreign operation.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
v. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities continued
Hedging Derivatives continued
Held for Trading Derivatives
Certain derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting or hedge accounting treatment is not sought. These instruments are classed as held for trading and changes in their fair value are recognised immediately in the income statement.
w. Provisions
A provision is recognised on the balance sheet when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
A provision for restructuring is recognised when the Group has approved a detailed and formal restructuring plan, and the restructuring has either commenced or has been announced publicly. Future operating costs are not provided for.
A provision for onerous contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract.
x. Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with arrangement of borrowings and foreign exchange differences net of hedged amounts on borrowings.
Ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings are capitalised and amortised over the life of the borrowings.
Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred unless they relate to qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets that take more than six months to prepare for their intended use or sale. In these circumstances, borrowing costs are capitalised to the costs of the assets. When funds are borrowed specifically for the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs capitalised are those incurred in relation to that borrowing. To the extent that funds are borrowed generally, the amount of borrowing costs capitalised is calculated by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on that asset.
y. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is determined by dividing profit after income tax attributable to members of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares (adjusted for treasury shares) outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year.
Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit after tax attributable to members of the Company and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
z. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, bank overdrafts and 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.
Bank overdrafts (if applicable) are shown as a current liability on the balance sheet and are shown as a reduction to the cash balance in the statement of cash flows.
aa. Share Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Preference share capital is classified as equity if it is non redeemable and any dividends are discretionary, or is redeemable but only at the Company's option. Dividends on preference share capital classified as equity are recognised as distributions within equity.
Preference share capital is classified as a liability if it is redeemable on a specific date or at the option of the shareholders or if dividend payments are not discretionary. Dividends thereon are recognised in the income statement as interest expense.
When share capital recognised as equity is repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, including directly attributable costs, is recognised as a change in equity.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
aa. Share Capital continued
Dividends on redeemable preference shares are recognised as a liability on an accrual basis. Other dividends are recognised as a liability in the financial year in which they are declared.
ab.Goods and Services Tax
Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is included as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.
ac. Service Concession Arrangements (Private Financing Initiatives and Public Private Partnerships)
Contract obligations and related rights are recognised and measured in accordance with AASB 111 'Construction Contracts' and AASB 118 'Revenue'. Obligations are recognised when consideration is received in advance of performance. Consideration receivable in respect of construction or other services is accounted for in accordance with AASB 139 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement' as a 'loan or receivable' and is measured at amortised cost. Borrowing costs are capitalised in accordance with Accounting Policy Note 1x. Pre contract and project bidding costs are capitalised in accordance with Accounting Policy Note 1m.
ad.Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The estimates and judgements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
Note 14a. 'Goodwill' contains information about the assumptions and their risk factors relating to goodwill impairment. Note 28a. 'Foreign Currency' provides detailed analysis of the foreign exchange exposure of the consolidated entity and risks in relation to foreign exchange movements.
Impairment of Goodwill
The Group assesses whether goodwill is impaired at least annually in accordance with Accounting Policy Note 1f. These calculations involve an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash generating units to which the goodwill is allocated.
Valuation of Assets and Recoverable Amounts
The Group assesses the fair value of certain assets by use of estimation techniques where there is no available market price. The Group assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of certain assets using estimations of their recoverable amount.
Defined Benefit Superannuation Fund Obligations
Various actuarial assumptions are utilised in determining the Group's defined benefit superannuation/pension fund obligations. These assumptions are discussed in Notes 15g. and 22g. 'Principal Actuarial Assumptions'.
Critical Accounting Judgements in Applying the Group's Accounting Policies
In the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, the Group makes various judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that can significantly affect the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements. These include:
- − When substantially all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of development properties are transferred to the purchaser;
- − The percentage completion on construction work performed;
- − Whether the substance of the relationship between the Group and a special purpose entity indicates that the special purpose entity is consolidated by the Group.

Dividend Franking
The final dividend of 42 cents per share declared since 30 June 2007 will be 50% franked. The interim dividend paid on 27 March 2007 (35 cents per share) was 50% franked.
The dividend franking account balance at 30 June 2007 is A\$56.2 million based on a 30% tax rate (30 June 2006: A\$94.6 million). This is calculated after adjusting for franking credits which will arise from the payment of income tax provided in the accounts, tax losses utilised in the current financial year and expected franking debits arising from refunds of tax in dispute. It excludes the A\$36.1 million (June 2006: A\$53.1 million) franking debit impact of the proposed dividend of A\$168.5 million (June 2006: A\$123.9 million) and the franking credits which arose from the payment of tax in dispute in relation to the sale of Westpac shares in 1996 (refer to Note 16. 'Other Assets').

2 An impairment reversal of A\$5.7 million relating to Pyrmont Trust (Jacksons Landing) has been recognised during the period (June 2006: impairment loss A\$6.0 million). This reflects the achievement of several milestones for the project during the period, which contributed to the derisking of the project and resulting in a lower discount rate applied in an external valuation.
3 Under the Joint Venture Agreement all operating decisions are made jointly. Lend Lease therefore does not have control.

1 Relates to retirement villages held under leasehold arrangements that do not satisfy the revenue recognition criteria under AASB 118. There is an offsetting non financial liability in Note 21. 'Other Non Financial Liabilities' and therefore no profit and loss impact.
Valuation Basis
The basis of the valuation of investment properties is the amounts for which the properties could be exchanged between willing parties in an arm's length transaction, based on current prices in an active market for similar properties in the same location and condition. If this information is not available, Lend Lease uses alternative calculation methods such as discounted cash flow projections or recent prices on less active markets.
The 2007 valuations for the Senior Living properties are supported by actuarial assessments performed by Lend Lease based on its detailed knowledge and recent experience in the location and category of the property being valued. The Chelmsford Meadows Shopping Centre's valuation is based on an independent valuation performed by an industry specialist in valuing these types of investment properties. Pakenham Place Shopping Centre's carrying value reflects market value based on Lend Lease's recent acquisition of the centre.

Key Assumptions Used for Value in Use Calculations
The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use post tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five year period. Cash flows beyond the five year period are extrapolated using conservative growth rates. The growth rate does not exceed the long term average growth rate for the business in which the CGU operates.
The Group's weighted average cost of capital is used as a start point for determining the discount rate with appropriate adjustments for the risk profile relating to the relevant segments and the countries in which they operate. The discount rates used are post tax.
The recoverable amount of CGUs exceeds their carrying value as at June 2007. Management believes that any reasonable possible change in the key assumptions on which the estimates are based would not cause the aggregate carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount of these CGUs.

2 If a surplus exists in the Fund at any particular point in time, Lend Lease may be able to take advantage of it in the form of a reduction in the required contribution rate, depending on the advice of the Fund's actuary. Lend Lease may at any time by notice to the Trustee terminate its contributions. Lend Lease has a liability to pay the contributions due prior to the effective date of the notice, but there is no requirement for Lend Lease to pay any further contributions, irrespective of the financial condition of the Fund.

h. Employer Contributions
The current contribution recommendations, as set out in the report of the most recent actuarial valuation of the Lend Lease Superannuation Fund as at 1 January 2006, are 14.4% of base pay (or ordinary time earnings if applicable) for Defined Benefit Plan members. Lend Lease is currently contributing at these rates.
The method used to determine the employer contribution recommendations at the last actuarial review was the Attained Age Normal method. The method adopted affects the timing of the cost to Lend Lease. Under the Attained Age Normal method, a 'normal' cost is calculated which is the estimated employer contribution rate required to provide benefits in respect of future service after the review date. The 'normal' cost is then adjusted to take into account any surplus (or deficiency) of assets over the value of liabilities in respect of service prior to the review date. Any surplus or deficiency can be used to reduce or increase the 'normal' employer contribution rate over a suitable period of time.
For the financial year ending 30 June 2008, total employer contributions to the plan are expected to be A\$6.0 million.
The long term economic assumptions adopted for the last actuarial review of the Fund were:
| As at 1 January 2006 % |
|
|---|---|
| Expected rate of return on assets (discount rate) after investment expense and tax | 7.0 |
| Expected salary increase rate | 5.0 |

1 The fair value of plan assets includes Lend Lease shares to the value of A\$0.4 million (June 2006: A\$0.3 million).
2 The expected return on assets assumption is determined by weighting the expected long term return for each asset class by the target allocation of assets to each asset class. In addition, correlations of the investment returns between asset classes are allowed. The returns used for each asset class are net of investment tax and investment fees. An allowance for administration expenses has been deducted from the expected return.
3 Lend Lease has taken the exemption provided under AASB 1 'Firsttime Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Reporting Standards' paragraph 20A. and only disclosed June 2005 and June 2006 comparative information, rather than the previous four annual reporting periods as required under AASB 119 'Employee Benefits' paragraph 120A.(p).

1 'Other' totalling A\$112.0 million includes A\$109.5 million in relation to an amended assessment issued by the ATO in November 2002. The amended assessment related to the forward sale of 100 million Westpac shares with County NatWest Securities Australia Limited. Lend Lease disputed the assessment and had an appeal before the Federal Court. During September 2006, the ATO refunded A\$25.5 million along with interest. In December 2006 the Federal Court found in favour of Lend Lease, with the ATO being required to repay the balance in dispute plus interest. The ATO appealed the ruling, however on 10 August 2007 the appeal was withdrawn.
2 Unearned premium and insurance claim reserves relate to Lend Lease's wholly owned special purpose captive insurance subsidiary.

2 If a surplus exists in the Fund at any particular point in time, Lend Lease may be able to take advantage of it in the form of a reduction in the required contribution rate, depending on the advice of the Fund's actuary and agreement from the Trustee. Regulations in place in the UK effective 23 September 2005 have increased the regulator's powers over the sponsoring company in relation to the financing of any deficit. The sponsor company (Bovis Lend Lease Holdings Limited) is obliged to finance the deficit, the funding of which is through a commitment to a rolling deficit reduction plan. During the year the Company made additional contributions of A\$14.8 million (£6.0 million) to the Fund. The review date for the current deficit recovery plan is March 2008.

h. Employer Contributions
The current contribution recommendations, as set out in the report of the most recent actuarial valuation of the Bovis UK Pension Scheme as at 31 March 2005, are 20% of pensionable salary for the final salary section and 16% of pensionable salary for the indexlinked section. Lend Lease is currently contributing at these rates. In addition, Lend Lease contributes top up contributions from time to time of which A\$14.8 million (£6.0 million) was contributed during the year (June 2006: A\$21.4 million (£9.0 million)).
The method used to determine the employer contribution recommendations at the last actuarial review was the Projected Unit Credit method. This method sees each period of service as giving rise to an additional unit of benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation.
For the financial year ending 30 June 2008, total employer contributions to the plan are expected to be A\$53.0 million (£22.0 million). Further employer contributions may be paid if there are any redundancies or augmentations during the year.
The long term economic assumptions adopted for the last actuarial review of the Fund were:

1 The expected return on assets assumption is determined by weighting the expected longterm return for each asset class by the target allocation of assets to each asset class and allowing for the correlations of the investment returns between asset classes. The returns used for each asset class are net of the Pension Protection Fund levy payable for the 2008 financial year. An allowance for administration expenses has been deducted from the expected return.
2 Lend Lease has taken the exemption provided under AASB 1 paragraph 20A. and only disclosed June 2005 and June 2006 comparative information, rather than the previous four annual reporting years as required under AASB 119 paragraph 120A.(p).

Nature and Purpose of Reserves
a. Fair Value Revaluation Reserve
Unrealised gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value and foreign exchange rate differences on translation of non monetary securities classified as available for sale are recognised in the fair value revaluation reserve. Amounts are recognised in the income statement when the associated securities are sold or impaired.
1 The shares issued under the SEP represent dividends forgone by SEP participants and reinvested in shares. These shares are issued directly from share capital with the number of shares issued based on the share price at the date the dividend payments are forgone.
2 Primarily relates to shares issued as part of the consideration for the purchase of the minority interest shareholdings in Crosby Lend Lease Group Limited.
3 Represents unallocated Lend Lease shares which are held by employee benefit vehicles, including employee share plans, which Lend Lease sponsors. The value reflects the original historical cost to the Lend Lease Group. The value of the treasury shares for the Company is different to the Lend Lease Group due to the elimination of the profit impact of transactions between consolidated employee benefit vehicles.
24. Reserves continued
Nature and Purpose of Reserves continued
b. Hedging Reserve
The hedging reserve comprises the effective portion of the cumulative net change in the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments relating to hedged transactions that have not occurred.
c. Foreign Currency Translation Reserve
The foreign currency translation reserve records the foreign currency differences net of income tax arising from the translation of foreign operations, the translation of transactions that hedge the Company's net investment in a foreign operation or the translation of foreign currency monetary items forming part of the net investment in a foreign operation.
d. Equity Compensation Reserve
The fair value of equity settled share based compensation is recognised in the income statement and equity compensation reserve over the vesting period of the underlying grant. Additionally, unallocated Lend Lease shares held by consolidated employee benefit vehicles which are used to meet equity related employee arrangements are recognised in the equity compensation reserve at their original historic cost to the Group.
e. Other Compensation Reserve
Unallocated Lend Lease shares held by consolidated employee benefit vehicles that are used to cash settle certain share based payment arrangements are recognised in the other compensation reserve at their original historic cost to the Group. On allocation, the shares are revalued to their current market value against the income statement. Following the distribution of the proceeds to the beneficiary, the difference between the original cost of the shares and the market value is recognised in retained earnings as a 'gain/(loss) on utilisation of treasury shares'.
f. Capital Reserve
The capital reserve comprises realised capital profits on the disposal of assets which did not attract capital gains tax.
g. Minority Interest Acquisition Reserve
The minority interest acquisition reserve arises from additional acquisition of minority interests, subsequent to obtaining control of the entity. The reserve represents the premium on the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group's share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired entity.

27. Contingent Liabilities
Lend Lease has the following contingent liabilities:
There are a number of legal claims and exposures which arise from the normal course of business. There is significant uncertainty as to whether a future liability will arise in respect of these items. The amount of liability, if any, which may arise cannot be measured reliably at this time. The Directors are of the opinion that all known liabilities have been brought to account and that adequate provision has been made for any anticipated losses.
In certain circumstances, Lend Lease guarantees the performance of particular Group entities in respect of their obligations. This includes bonding and bank guarantee facilities used primarily by the Project Construction Management businesses. These guarantees are provided in respect of activities that occur in the ordinary course of business and any known losses in respect of the relevant contracts have been brought to account.
Certain contingent liabilities exist in relation to the Lend Lease Retirement Benefit Fund. This is disclosed in detail in Note 34a. Lend Lease Employee Share Plans.
In September 2004, a class action was filed against a number of parties who responded to the World Trade Center emergency and debris removal following the events of 9/11. The action was brought against more than 50 defendants including the City of New York and Bovis Lend Lease LMB Inc ('Bovis Lend Lease') (a subsidiary of Lend Lease). Judge Alvin K Hellerstein of the United States Federal Court for the Southern District of New York refused to certify the class action and as such the litigation proceeds as a consolidated action by individual claimants.
In June 2006, Bovis Lend Lease and the other defendants brought an immunity motion in relation to the claims. The motion was brought on the basis that the defendants responded to a civic emergency and in that context should be immune from liability under applicable US laws. Judge Hellerstein handed down his judgment on 17 October 2006 and held that the "Defendants are benefited by limited immunity, limited according to time and activity". However, the Court denied the defendants' motion, concluding that such issues are "factintensive" questions which are "unsuitable for resolution by motion". Judge Hellerstein stated that the Court would need to assess further evidence before it could determine the extent to which the immunity laws are applicable to the claims.
Although the defendants were pleased that the 17 October 2006 decision recognised that the state and federal laws that provide immunity do protect the defendants against suit (to a presently undetermined extent) and while Judge Hellerstein's decision made no finding of liability in relation to Bovis Lend Lease or any of the defendants, the defendants have appealed against the motion on the basis that the Court should have granted the motion as presented. The appeal is scheduled to be heard by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit the week of 1 October 2007, but this date could change. The litigation is still in the preliminary stages. Should the litigation proceed beyond this stage, Bovis Lend Lease is one of the beneficiaries of the approximately US\$1.0 billion captive insurance policy established by the US Congress to protect the City of New York and its contractors against liabilities that may arise from the clean up. Bovis Lend Lease also has other project specific insurance.
In addition, to establish any liability on the part of Bovis Lend Lease, the claimants must prove that Bovis Lend Lease owed them a duty of care, breached that duty and that their injuries were caused by the conduct of Bovis Lend Lease. The litigation will therefore need to proceed through a number of stages before any liability can attach to Bovis Lend Lease. As with all litigation, to the extent that the claimants are able to establish liability against Bovis Lend Lease, it is not possible at this stage to quantify what that liability may or may not be or whether or not that liability will be entirely covered by insurance.
28. International Currency Management and Financial Instruments
a. Foreign Currency
Foreign Currency Risk
Lend Lease policy is to manage currency risk so as to minimise any adverse impact of this risk and associated costs on the Lend Lease Group's consolidated result. A Financial Markets Risk Committee oversees the management of the Group's foreign currency exposures within the parameters of the Board approved currency risk management policy. Speculative trading is not undertaken.
Lend Lease uses both physical and derivative (mainly forward foreign exchange contracts) financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency exposures.
The majority of forward exchange contracts hedge specific foreign currency exposures including receivables, payables, revenues, expenses and intercompany transactions and loans. The contracts are converted using forward rates at balance date with unrealised gains and losses recorded in the income statement or the hedge reserve when the derivative is used in a hedging relationship that satisfies AASB 139 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement' criteria. Exchange gains and losses on these contracts are accounted for in accordance with Lend Lease's accounting policy for foreign currency (refer to Accounting Policy Note 1v.).
28. International Currency Management and Financial Instruments continued
a. Foreign Currency continued
Foreign Currency Risk continued
Certain derivative transactions qualified as cash flow or fair value hedges, in meeting the appropriate strict hedge accounting criteria outlined in Accounting Policy Note 1v.
It is estimated that an increase of one cent/pence in the average rate in the value of AUD against foreign currencies in which Lend Lease derives its foreign income would have decreased the consolidated entity's profit before tax at 30 June 2007 by approximately A\$4.4 million (2006: A\$6.0 million). No forward exchange contracts have been included in this calculation.
Fair Value Hedges
Lend Lease's fair value hedges consist of foreign exchange forward contracts used to protect against changes in the fair value of particular foreign denominated available for sale financial assets due to movements in market foreign exchange rates. As at 30 June 2007 the fair value of the outstanding derivatives held by Lend Lease and designated as fair value hedges are recognised as Other Financial Liabilities of A\$0.1 million.
Cash Flow Hedges
Lend Lease's cash flow hedges protect against foreign exchange rate fluctuations on highly probable forecast transactions using foreign exchange forward contracts. As at June 2007 the fair value of these outstanding designated derivatives is recognised in equity as an out of the money position of A\$0.4 million. It is expected that the current hedged forecast transactions will occur during the financial year ending June 2008.

b. Credit Risk Exposures
Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties failed to perform as contracted. The Lend Lease Risk Management and Audit Committee maintains a Groupwide framework for risk management and reviews issues of material risk exposure, including credit risk.
On Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
The credit risk on financial assets recognised in the balance sheet (excluding investments of Lend Lease) equals the carrying amount, net of any impairment.
Lend Lease has no significant concentrations of credit risk and has policies in place to ensure that sales of products and services are made to customers with an appropriate credit history.
28. International Currency Management and Financial Instruments continued
b. Credit Risk Exposures continued
On Balance Sheet Financial Instruments continued
Credit risk on financial instruments is managed through a Board approved credit policy for determining acceptable counterparties. The counterparties are recognised financial intermediaries with acceptable credit ratings determined by a recognised rating agency. The policy sets out credit limits for each counterparty. The use of any counterparty outside the policy specifications requires Board approval.
Off Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
Credit risk for off balance sheet derivative contracts such as interest rate swaps and forward exchange contracts is minimised as dealing is principally undertaken with counterparties that are recognised financial intermediaries with acceptable credit ratings determined by a recognised rating agency.
Foreign exchange contracts are subject to credit risk in relation to the counterparty failing to deliver the contracted amount of currency at settlement date. The full amount of the exposure is disclosed in Note 28a. 'Foreign Currency'.
c. Interest Rate Risk
Lend Lease's policy is to manage interest rate risk that impacts directly on the Group's assets and liabilities. A Financial Markets Risk Committee oversees the management of the Group's interest rate exposures within the parameters of the Board approved policy.
Lend Lease uses physical and derivative (mainly interest rate swaps) financial instruments to assist in managing its interest rate exposure. Speculative trading is not undertaken.
At 30 June 2007 it is estimated that an increase of one percentage point in interest rates would have increased the consolidated entity's profit before tax by approximately A\$3.5 million (2006: A\$5.0 million decrease). Interest rate swaps have been included in this calculation.

d. Liquidity Risk
The Group's objective is to maintain efficient use of cash and debt facilities in order to minimise the cost of borrowing to the Group. A Financial Markets Risk Committee oversees the management of the Group's liquidity risk within the parameters of the Board approved policy.
e. Net Fair Values of Financial Assets and Liabilities
On Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
Equity investments traded on organised markets have been valued by reference to market prices prevailing at balance date. For nontraded equity investments, the net fair value is an assessment by the Directors based on the underlying net assets, future maintainable earnings and any special circumstances pertaining to a particular investment (refer to Note 10. 'Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Method' and Note 12. 'Other Financial Assets').
All assets and liabilities recognised in the balance sheet, whether they are carried at cost or at fair value, are recognised at amounts that represent a reasonable approximation of fair value.
Off Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
The gross liabilities relating to forward foreign exchange contracts are not recognised on the balance sheets at 30 June 2007. The balances relating to these contracts are included in Other Financial Assets and Other Financial Liabilities (refer to Note 12. 'Other Financial Assets' and Note 20. 'Other Financial Liabilities') and are held at fair value. They represent the net unrealised gain or loss resulting from converting the forward foreign exchange contracts to forward rates at balance date.
The net fair value of financial assets or financial liabilities arising from interest rate swap agreements has been determined as the marked to market value.
Lend Lease Corporation and some of its consolidated entities have potential financial liabilities, which may arise from certain contingencies disclosed in Note 27. 'Contingent Liabilities'.

30. Consolidated Entities continued
b. Acquisitions continued
Goodwill on acquisition at 30 June 2006 represents the final goodwill recognised from the acquisition of the Crosby Group following the finalisation of the Crosby Group completion accounts as at the date of acquisition. The goodwill recognised on the acquisition was attributable to the skills and experience of the management team and the track record of the business. No other intangibles that had a value were identified on acquisition.
1 The Crosby Group plc is a UKbased urban regeneration specialist. The acquisition was 100% debt funded and represented 97% of the voting shares, with management coinvesting so as to own the remaining 3%. The revenue and profit of the Crosby Group since the beginning of the June 2006 financial year is not materially different to that since 8 July 2005, the date of acquisition. Subsequently, Lend Lease has acquired the remaining 3% interest in the Crosby Group plc.
2 First Base Adelaide Wharf Limited is involved in the development of Adelaide Wharf in Hackney, East London. Lend Lease is deemed to have control based on its share of the risk and rewards of the project.
3 Chelmsford Meadows Limited Partnership owns the Meadows Centre in Chelmsford, Essex.

34. Employee Benefits
a. Lend Lease Employee Share Plans
Lend Lease has as a core value the concept of the 'partnering' of capital and labour. This concept has, over decades, been advanced in many practical ways at Lend Lease through philosophies such as employee ownership and profit sharing.
Currently employees own approximately 9.5% of the issued capital of Lend Lease.
In October 1988, shareholders approved an annual allotment of 0.5% of the issued capital of Lend Lease Corporation at 50 cents per share to be used for the benefit of Lend Lease Group employees. This programme was suspended by the Board in May 2003.
Australia: Employee Share Acquisition Plan (ESAP)
- − In accordance with the 1988 shareholder approval, ESAP was established in December 1988 for the purpose of employees acquiring shares in Lend Lease Corporation. This plan replaced previous employee ownership facilities in place over the previous decades.
- − ESAP is funded by Lend Lease subscriptions. Those subscriptions have been used to acquire shares in Lend Lease Corporation at market value on behalf of employees, who may be nominated as members of ESAP.
- − Employees may also be allocated shares by way of bonus arrangements on the basis of individual and departmental performance.
- − At balance date, approximately 1,934 employees (June 2006: 2,072) were eligible to participate in the plan.
US: Employee Share Plan
− The US Internal Revenue Service approved share plan arrangements previously in place were closed during the June 2005 financial year due to the change to Lend Lease making all profit share payments in cash.
UK/Europe/Asia: Employee Share Plan
- − Two employee share plans (the 'Plans') were established in 1998, being the UKbased Inland Revenue Approved Plan (the 'Approved Plan') and the European (Guernseybased) Restricted Share Plan (the 'Restricted Share Plan'). The Plans jointly are similar in operation to the Australiabased ESAP; however, the 1998 Approved Plan (closed in March 2002) was only available to UK employees.
- − In 2002 two new UKbased Inland Revenue approved Share Incentive Plans (SIP) were established for the acceptance of employee profit share contributions used to acquire Lend Lease Corporation shares for UKbased Lend Lease Group employees. These plans are currently not accepting new contributions due to the change to Lend Lease making all profit share payments in cash.
- − At balance date approximately 2,261 employees (June 2006: 2,220) were eligible to participate in the SIP, should it recommence accepting contributions.
34. Employee Benefits continued
a. Lend Lease Employee Share Plans continued
UK/Europe/Asia: Employee Share Plan continued
- − Shares in the Restricted Share Plan may be allocated to employees in the UK, Europe and Singapore based on individual and departmental performance. The Restricted Share Plan can acquire Lend Lease Corporation shares at market value on behalf of employees. The value of allocations to employees is ultimately based on a combination of the Lend Lease Corporation share price and the respective currencies and Australian dollar exchange rates.
- − At balance date, approximately 3,995 UK and European employees (June 2006: 3,664) were eligible to participate in the plan.
Eligibility
The rules for eligibility for particular plans are determined by reference to the regulatory, legal and tax rules of each country in which the Group operates.
Dividends and/or Voting Rights
Generally, employees in the various operating share plans are entitled to dividends and voting rights for allocated shares. The plans reflect this intention subject to regulatory, legal and tax constraints. Voting and dividend rights on any unallocated shares reside with the trustees of the relevant share plan trusts. The trustee may exercise these rights in accordance with any fiduciary or governance rules pertaining to the deed or trust laws in the legal/tax jurisdiction the trust operates within.
b. Lend Lease Employee Benefit Vehicles
In addition to the plans discussed in Note 34a., Lend Lease has over the years established a range of employee share ownership vehicles. The Lend Lease Retirement Benefit Fund (RBF) was established in 1984 with shareholder approval for the benefit of employees through the allotment at par value of 5.0 million Lend Lease Corporation shares. The balance of the assets of RBF at 30 June 2007 was 14.1 million Lend Lease shares (June 2006: 14.1 million Lend Lease shares). The fund was originally intended to provide excess superannuation benefits but this purpose has now become defunct due to changes in the law. For some years, earnings have been used to fund the programs of the Lend Lease Foundation. The Lend Lease shares in RBF are not available for allocation to employees other than in the event of a change of control of Lend Lease Corporation and, in accordance with the Trust Deed, the capital of the Trust is not available to Lend Lease Corporation. The RBF Trustees are independent of Lend Lease Corporation. In the event of a change of control, the RBF Trustees may distribute RBF funds to employees who cease to be employees during the 12 months after a change of control. The RBF Trustees have discretion as to how RBF funds are distributed following a change of control. Under AIFRS, RBF, while not legally controlled, is now required to be consolidated for accounting purposes and payments from it on a change of control are therefore now relevant to the Company's financial statements. Any payments that the RBF Trustees may make as a result of a change of control of Lend Lease Corporation are an obligation of RBF and not the Company. Any payments made will need to be funded by the Trust and therefore cannot exceed the value of the assets of RBF which was A\$284.6 million at 30 June 2007. However, as RBF is consolidated by the Company, this potential obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability. Further, given the timing and basis on which the Trust purchased its Lend Lease shares, it should be noted that any capital gains tax payable on the Lend Lease shares sold by the Trust as a result of a change of control (or otherwise) may be recorded from an accounting viewpoint as a tax expense of the consolidated entity.
In October 1985, the Lend Lease Employee Investment Trust (EIT) was established to enable employees to invest in the company. At that time, shareholders approved a one for ten renounceable rights issue and the allotment at the same price of an equivalent number of shares to EIT. EIT acquired these shares with debt funds raised through an external financier. Over the years, strong growth in Lend Lease dividend flows enabled EIT to pay down its external debt. In the following years, EIT acquired shares through onmarket purchases, participation in bonus issues and dividend reinvestment. Between 1984 and 1988 it also accumulated shares through the prior shareholders' resolution to allot 0.5% of issued capital to employee benefit vehicles. At 30 June 2007, there were 11.7 million (June 2006: 11.7 million) Lend Lease Corporation shares held by EIT of which 11.3 million shares were available for allocation to employees. For some time the Trustee of EIT has directed surplus dividends to help fund the Lend Lease Foundation's programs. In accordance with the Trust Deed, the capital of the Trust is not available to Lend Lease Corporation. As with RBF, AIFRS now requires consolidation of EIT for accounting purposes, regardless of the control of EIT by independent trustees. Payments from EIT have therefore become relevant to the Company's financial statements. On a change of control, the EIT Trustees may (but are not required to) terminate the trust and distribute allocated proceeds to employees and unallocated proceeds to the Lend Lease Superannuation Fund or to RBF. Any payments are an obligation of EIT and not the Company, and cannot exceed the assets of the trust (A\$225.3 million as at 30 June 2007). No contingency is recorded in these financial statements as the potential for such payments is remote, with any termination of EIT in such circumstances, and any subsequent distribution to other funds, entirely at the discretion of the EIT Trustees. Given the timing and basis on which the Trust purchased its Lend Lease shares, it should be noted that any capital gains tax payable on the Lend Lease shares sold by EIT as a result of a change of control (or otherwise) may be recognised from an accounting viewpoint as a tax expense of the consolidated entity.
34. Employee Benefits continued
b. Lend Lease Employee Benefit Vehicles continued
The consolidation of EIT and RBF under AIFRS creates certain anomalies for the Group's reported profit or loss where distributions from those trusts are used to fund employee programs under the Lend Lease Foundation (as they have been doing for some time). In particular, the consolidation requires dividends on Lend Lease shares which are distributed by the trusts to the Foundation be eliminated from the income of the Group. On 30 June 1992, Lend Lease agreed that if it were to receive distributions from EIT or RBF, it would apply an equal amount for Foundation programs (see below). The effect is that the Group immediately accrues for this obligation, but is now no longer entitled to recognise the matching income that creates the obligation. This results in a net expense to the income statement, which does not reflect the cash position. In the year to 30 June 2007, the net impact was an after tax expense of A\$10.1 million. In future years, it would be anticipated that there would be similar impacts on reported profits.
In 1988, Lend Lease established ESAP as an employee reward scheme. ESAP was established to prospectively replace EIT as the principal employee share plan of the Group in Australia. Other similar plans have subsequently been established (refer to earlier share plan comments). The details of the employee share plans, including ESAP, are set out in Note 34a.
Access to the Lend Lease Foundation is another important employee benefit, providing learning, personal development, community and other activities. Established in 1983, the Foundation's programs are administered by employee representatives.
c. Share Based Payments
Long Term Incentives (LTIs)
The current LTIs of Lend Lease were introduced and approved by the Board in 1999 and updated and extended for awards from 2001 onwards. The objectives of the LTIs are essentially twofold:
- − Align executives with the long term interests of Lend Lease and its shareholders;
- − Attract and retain high calibre executives by providing competitive rewards that relate to the performance of both the individual executive and the Lend Lease share price.
LTI grants are normally made in July each year and are based on competitive remuneration practice. LTIs are settled in cash or Lend Lease shares, with settlement occurring upon vesting if performance hurdles are met. Grants depend on personal contribution and potential, and are designed to retain and motivate high performing and key executives. The LTIs are in the form of an Australian dollar figure 'grant', which is notionally 'invested' in performance shares (PS) over time to deliver value depending on:
- − Whether the executive remains with the Group if the executive resigns before vesting, the grant will lapse;
- − The performance of the Group.
The Personnel and Organisation Committee approved one change to the rules of the LTI for the 2005 awards onwards. The rules now allow that in the event of a change in control of Lend Lease, all awards will vest upon change in control, to the extent that performance conditions have been met. Senior executives would then be entitled to a pro rata settlement, with the Board having discretion to allow the entitlement to exceed this pro rata amount.
Arrangements for LTIs granted in the Financial Years 2005 and 2006
For awards granted on 1 July 2004 and 1 July 2005, the performance hurdles are based on the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) of Lend Lease against a basket of international comparator companies. Under these awards, the performance hurdle required TSR to achieve at least median against several comparator companies of Lend Lease.
Arrangements for the June 2007 Financial Year – Additional Performance Hurdles
For the June 2007 financial year awards, the Personnel and Organisation Committee set new performance hurdles to align interests between the participant and shareholders and for consistency with a new Short Term Incentive structure.
For awards granted in 2006 onwards the performance hurdle is based on two equal measures: long term profitability as measured by Earnings Per Share (EPS) and external TSR compared to the TSR of the individual ASX100 listed companies as at the commencement of the performance period. The change in the TSR comparator group better reflects those companies against which Lend Lease competes for capital. The performance measures are:
- − TSR measured against the ASX100 companies (with 50% vesting at median performance, rising proportionately to 100% on reaching top quartile performance);
- − EPS on operating profit after tax reported in the financial statements adjusted for treasury shares (with 100% vesting if a minimum compound annual growth rate of 10% is achieved over the three year performance period).
Each of the two performance hurdles is measured and can vest independently. The executive must remain with the Company until vesting date for the award to vest.
For the 2006 award, the Personnel and Organisation Committee intends that these awards will vest in Company shares rather than cash, other than for executives specifically identified by the Personnel and Organisation Committee or in circumstances where share settlement is not practicable.

Retention Awards
When the Board believes an employee is an outstanding performer and Lend Lease and its shareholders will gain from incentivising him or her to remain with Lend Lease, a retention award may be made. As an incentive to remain with the Company requires a degree of certainty of value delivered to the individual at the end of the retention period, performance conditions are not generally applied to the ultimate payment of such an award. Refer to the table below for details of the vesting conditions of retention awards.

Summary of the LTIs and Retention Awards continued
Amounts Recognised in the Financial Statements
LTIs are valued using a MonteCarlo simulation methodology where the share price can be projected based on the assumptions underlying the BlackScholes formula. Retention awards are valued by discounting the share price by the expected dividends assumed to be paid from the valuation date until the vesting date (if applicable). The model inputs include the Lend Lease share price, a risk free interest rate, expected volatility and dividend yield.
Details of the amounts recognised in the financial statements and the fair values relating to LTIs and retention awards for the years ended 30 June 2007 and 2006 are set out below.

e. Events Subsequent to Balance Date
No matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial year that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of Lend Lease, the results of those operations or state of affairs of Lend Lease in subsequent financial years other than the following:
Sale of Units in Australian Prime Property Fund (APPF)
On 11 July 2007, Lend Lease sold a proportion of its interest in APPF Retail for A\$263.8 million. As at 30 June 2007, a cumulative gain of A\$32.6 million before tax was recognised in the fair value revaluation reserve relating to this interest.
Withdrawal of Australian Tax Office (ATO) appeal to Federal Court on Westpac Warrants Issue
On 10 August 2007 the ATO withdrew its appeal relating to the Federal Court's decision in December 2006 regarding Lend Lease's sale of Westpac shares.
Following the withdrawal of its appeal, the ATO will be required to repay to Lend Lease the balance of the payment Lend Lease made under the amended assessment issued in 2002, plus interest. The repayment of the monies by the ATO has no impact on earnings.
f. Likely Developments
Details of likely developments in the operations of Lend Lease in subsequent financial years are contained in the reports from the Chairman and Managing Director in the Annual Report. In the opinion of the Directors, disclosure of any further information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.
g. Environmental Regulation
Lend Lease is subject to many environmental regulations associated with real estate development, project and construction management and asset management. These regulations typically relate to emissions to air and water, waste management and protection of biodiversity.
Lend Lease businesses report quarterly on environmental regulation compliance matters, including breaches and legal or potential legal action.
The Sustainability Committee receives reports on a quarterly basis regarding any significant environmental risks and non conformance with the Environment Policy of Lend Lease. The Directors are not aware of any material non compliance issues during the period covered by this Report.
Further details are contained in the Sustainability section of the Annual Report.

b. Remuneration Policy – Audited
Directors and Executives
Remuneration Philosophy
The Remuneration Policy of Lend Lease is determined by the Board on the recommendation of the Personnel and Organisation Committee. The Board recognises that Lend Lease operates in an international marketplace and as such aims to recruit, motivate and retain highly skilled employees who can operate in this environment. The policy of Lend Lease is to reward senior executives with market competitive remuneration and benefits, taking account of both Company and individual performance. In assessing these benchmarks, Lend Lease takes account of expert advice and the relevant external comparators in the real estate and related sectors and of companies of similar size, complexity and international scope. The remuneration of the Non Executive Directors is not linked to the performance of the Group in order to maintain their independence and impartiality.

b. Remuneration Policy – Audited continued
Directors and Executives continued
Remuneration Philosophy continued
Remuneration paid by Lend Lease is designed to be appropriate and competitive in each of its business locations, having regard to local practice on issues such as incentives, pensions, superannuation and other benefits. Lend Lease also recognises the need to take account of differing costs of living, especially in relation to expatriates and this is reflected in remuneration for expatriate executives.
In determining the remuneration structure outlined in this report, the remuneration philosophy of the Board is focused on ensuring:
- − The structure is the best fit with the needs of the organisation and its strategy;
- − Remuneration levels are commensurate with appropriate external comparators;
- − Alignment of remuneration incentives with the interests of shareholders, demonstrating a clear link between reward and performance;
- − Alignment of short and long term performance targets to ensure consistent behaviour;
- − A mix of cash and share based remuneration to align the interests of executives with those of shareholders.
The approach of Lend Lease is to provide a balance of fixed and performance based remuneration with an emphasis on increasing 'at risk' remuneration. This approach is reflected in the structure of the Short Term Incentive Plan in particular for the June 2007 financial year.
The Board sets salaries at competitive levels for the relevant role, targeted around the median against comparator companies in Australia and overseas, and takes into account market conditions and personal performance over the year under review.
Market data is used to benchmark salary levels on a global scale, adjusted for local conditions. The Personnel and Organisation Committee benchmarks information available in published job matched surveys of similar companies and, if appropriate, also commissions surveys to supplement the published information. To ensure proper process is followed for all senior executives, all proposed packages for direct reports of Executive Office members and other key managers require prior approval from the Chief Executive Officer. In addition, all internal appointments with a base salary in excess of A\$300,000 in Australia, US\$220,000 in the US and £120,000 in the UK, or for whom a base salary increase of 10% or above is proposed, require prior approval from the Chief Executive Officer.
Elements of Remuneration
The remuneration framework consists of three principal elements:
- − Fixed remuneration (base salary, superannuation and other benefits);
- − Short Term Incentive (annual cash and an equity related deferral) 'at risk';
- − Long Term Incentive (cash or share based performance rights) 'at risk'.
Fixed Remuneration
The salaries of the Chief Executive Officer, the Global Chief Operating Officer and the Chief Executive Officers of the core businesses and corporate functional heads are set by the Personnel and Organisation Committee subject to approval by the Board. Salary changes usually take effect from September of each year except in the case of a new appointment. In the case of the Executive Office members and their direct reports, the Committee is assisted in this review by the Chief Executive Officer.
The other elements of fixed remuneration include those typically enjoyed in the geography where the key person or executive is employed. These may include car, medical cover, employee share plan subscriptions, superannuation and pension contributions, life and/or disability cover and in the case of international assignees, housing, schooling and tax return preparation. The value of these other benefits provided to key personnel are set out in Section 3c. of this Report. Executives are not automatically entitled to all of these benefits.

Short Term Incentives (STIs)
- The STI plan is an annual bonus plan which complements the overall Remuneration Policy of Lend Lease by:
- − Rewarding individuals on meeting or exceeding preset key performance criteria;
- − Establishing key performance criteria to contribute to overall shareholder value.
Under the STI arrangement, executives receive benefits dependent on the achievement of both Lend Lease financial targets and individual personal targets. The total value of the potential benefit (target opportunity) varies by executive, but is generally linked to salary and/or related benefits.
Arrangements for the June 2007 Financial Year
The following table sets out the criteria required to be achieved for the current year STI.
| Financial Element (75%) | Personal Performance Element (25%) | ||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| − | Represents 75% of target opportunity. | − | Represents 25% of target opportunity. | ||||||||
| − | Measured against the current financial year operating profit after tax, excluding certain non recurring items (A\$413.7 million). This is measured either entirely at corporation level or a mix of corporation (40%) and business unit (60%) level depending on the role. |
− | Measured against targets specific to each executive's business unit and function. |
||||||||
| − | Upside opportunity can be increased to +25% of target opportunity for +10% of target performance achievement. |
||||||||||
| Depending on the level of performance achieved, the benefit is delivered to executives as follows: |
STI Cash Element
- − Proportion of STI received as cash is determined specifically for each executive (see table below);
- − Cash payment in September following year end.
STI Deferred Element
- − Lend Lease shares or equivalent share value in cash based on share price at the date of determination of the bonuses;
- − The shares (or share value if shares are not practicable) are then held in trust on behalf of the executive for the deferral period;
- − For executives to receive the full deferral they must be employed by the Group at the date of vesting of the deferral element. The usual deferral period will be one year from the date of the grant.1
1 This period may be shortened if an executive is a 'good leaver', that is, an executive who leaves employment by reason of death, total and permanent disability, redundancy or other reason as outlined by the Personnel and Organisation Committee.
The split of the cash and the deferred elements for Executive Directors and executives for the June 2007 financial year is as follows:
| June 2007 STI Cash Element – Maximum Opportunity |
June 2007 STI Deferred Element – Maximum Opportunity |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| % | % | Calculated Based On | |
| G Clarke | 119 | 59 | Base salary |
| R Taylor | 83 | 59 | Total package value |
| Other key personnel and executives | 30 – 107 | 18 – 36 | Australia: Total package value |
| UK and USA: Base salary |
Total package value equates to base salary and other benefits plus superannuation.

Future Arrangements
For the forthcoming year, the Personnel and Organisation Committee has further aligned the criteria for the STI to the performance of the executive. The changes to the 2007 STI arrangements are:
- − Financial element for business unit heads, the financial element is split between the operating profit after tax (adjusted for significant one off, non recurring items) of the executive's business unit (twothirds of financial element) and other value drivers for each executive's business unit (onethird of financial element);
- − Qualitative bonus qualifiers for any part of the bonus to be paid, each executive must demonstrate achievement of either the corporate or business unit specific annual plan relating to both Incident and Injury Free and Sustainability.
Long Term Incentives (LTIs)
The current LTIs of Lend Lease were introduced and approved by the Board in 1999 and updated and extended for awards from 2001 onwards. The objectives of the LTIs are essentially twofold:
- − Aligning executives with the long term interests of Lend Lease and its shareholders;
- − Attracting and retaining executives of high calibre by providing competitive rewards that relate to the performance of both the individual executive and the Lend Lease share price.
LTI grants are normally made in July each year and are based on competitive remuneration practice. LTIs are settled in cash or Lend Lease shares, with settlement occurring upon vesting if performance hurdles are met. Grants depend on personal contribution and potential and are designed to retain and motivate high performing key executives. The LTIs are in the form of an Australian dollar figure 'grant', which is notionally 'invested' in performance shares (PS) over time to deliver value depending on:
- − Whether the executive remains with the Group if the executive resigns before vesting, the grant will lapse;
- − The performance of the Group.
The Personnel and Organisation Committee approved one change to the rules of the LTIs for the 2005 awards onwards. The rules now allow that, in the event of a change in control of Lend Lease, all awards will vest upon change in control, to the extent that performance conditions have been met. Senior executives would then be entitled to a pro rata settlement, with the Board having discretion to allow the entitlement to exceed this pro rata amount.
Arrangements for LTIs granted in the Financial Years 2005 and 2006
For awards granted on 1 July 2004 and 1 July 2005, the performance hurdles are based on the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) against a basket of international comparator companies. Under these awards, the performance hurdle required TSR to achieve at least median against several comparator companies of Lend Lease. The comparator companies for these awards were: Amec, Atkins WS, Balfour Beatty, British Land, Centex, Hochtief, Jacobs Engineering, Jarvis, Jones Lang LaSalle, Land Securities, Lennar, Leighton Holdings, Liberty International, Mowlem, Skanska, Taylor Woodrow, United Group and Westfield Group.
A full list of the specific criteria that apply to LTIs granted is detailed in Section 3d. of this Report.
There is no retesting permitted under the LTI.
Arrangements for the June 2007 Financial Year – Additional Performance Hurdle
For the June 2007 financial year awards, the Personnel and Organisation Committee set new performance hurdles to align interests between the participant and shareholders and for consistency with the new STI structure.
For awards granted in 2006 onwards, the performance hurdle is based on two equal measures: long term profitability as measured by Earnings Per Share (EPS) and external TSR compared to the TSR of the individual ASX100 listed companies as at the commencement of the performance period. The change in the TSR comparator group better reflects those companies against which Lend Lease competes for capital.

b. Remuneration Policy – Audited continued

Elements of Remuneration continued
Long Term Incentives (LTIs) continued
The performance measures are:
- − TSR measured against the ASX100 companies (with 50% vesting at median performance, rising proportionately to 100% on reaching top quartile performance);
- − EPS on operating profit after tax reported in the financial statements adjusted for treasury shares (with 100% vesting if a minimum compound annual growth rate of 10% is achieved over the three year performance period).
Each of the two performance hurdles is measured and can vest independently. The executive must ordinarily remain with the Company until the vesting date for the award to vest.
For the 2006 award, it is intended that these awards will vest in Company shares rather than cash, other than for executives specifically identified or in circumstances where share settlement is not practicable.
There continues to be no retesting under the LTI.
Details of the terms of the awards on issue during the 2007 financial year are summarised below.

Elements of Remuneration continued
Long Term Incentives (LTIs) continued
Hedging in Relation to LTI Awards
The Company prohibits executives from entering into pre vesting hedging arrangements in relation to LTI awards. For awards made in the June 2007 financial year onwards, it is an explicit condition for awards to vest that executives declare that they have not entered into any such arrangement.
Retention Awards
When the Board believes an employee is an outstanding performer and the Company and its shareholders will gain from further incentivising him or her to remain with Lend Lease, a retention award may be made. As an incentive to remain with the Company requires a degree of certainty of value delivered to the individual at the end of the retention period, performance conditions are not generally applied to the ultimate payment of such an award. Details of the current awards for each specified executive are included in LTIs as part of the remuneration details disclosed in this Report.
Superannuation/Pension Plans
Pension plan arrangements are in place in most international locations. In the past, executives (and other employees) joined either a defined benefit or a defined contribution plan. Entry into all defined benefit plans has now ceased across the Group. All new Executive Directors and executives have the opportunity to join defined contribution plans.
Relationship of Remuneration to Company Performance
In considering the Group's performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Personnel and Organisation Committee, when setting the criteria for STI and LTI awards, has regard to the financial performance of the Group. The performance in respect of these measures for the current financial year and previous four financial years is summarised in the following table:
| AIFRS | Previous GAAP | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2007 | 2006 | 2005 | 2004 | 2003 | |||||
| Statutory profit/(loss) after tax1 | A\$m | 497.5 | 415.2 | 210.7 | 333.5 | (714.8) | |||
| Operating profit after tax1 | A\$m | 413.7 | 354.2 | 310.42 | 255.93 | 230.24 | |||
| Earnings per share5 | cents | 120.5 | 96.1 | n/a | n/a | n/a | |||
| Dividends paid and declared | A\$m | 308.5 | 243.7 | 227.2 | 177.4 | 129.4 | |||
| Increase/(decrease) in closing share price6 | A\$ | 4.55 | 1.03 | 2.68 | 1.93 | (2.19) |
1 Statutory profit/(loss) after tax represents profit attributable to the equity holders of the parent. Operating profit after tax excludes unrealised property investment revaluations of A\$51.6 million after tax for the June 2007 financial year (A\$61.0 million after tax for the June 2006 financial year) and excludes certain non recurring items (June 2007: ATO interest of A\$32.2 million after tax).
2 June 2005 is based on operating results excluding gains on exiting the REI businesses (A\$11.6 million after tax), cost savings implementation expenses (A\$47.7 million after tax), Lend Lease/GPT merger and net separation costs (A\$19.4 million after tax) and write off of GPT and Homemaker management agreements (A\$44.2 million after tax).
3 Consistent with June 2005, June 2004 operating results have been restated to also exclude the impact of Group restructuring and merger costs (A\$18.5 million after tax). June 2004 was based on operating results excluding the profit from the sale of IBMGSA (A\$79.7 million after tax), impact of exiting the REI businesses (A\$2.3 million loss after tax) and capital loss tax benefits arising from Australian tax consolidations (A\$18.7 million after tax) and including capital loss tax benefits (A\$13.0 million recouped against the capital gain on sale of IBMGSA).
4 June 2003 excludes the write down of REI businesses of A\$945.0 million after tax.
5 For 2006 LTI awards, one vesting condition is EPS, as defined in this financial report (excluding treasury shares) adjusted for unrealised property investment revaluations (unless assets have been sold).
6 For LTI awards, the starting and ending share prices are based on the average daily closing price over the award period (five consecutive trading days for the 2004 LTI and three months for the 2005 and 2006 LTIs). The table above represents the movement in the closing share price on 30 June of each financial year.
Operating profit after tax is considered in setting the STI targets while dividends, changes in share price and return of capital are included in the TSR calculation, which is one of the performance hurdles assessed for the LTI.
The Personnel and Organisation Committee considers that the aforementioned external performancelinked remuneration structure is appropriate because it:
- − Represents shareholders' 'bottom line' and provides an objective measure of value created for shareholders;
- − Is independent of accounting policies and accepted by institutional investors;
- − Is simple to benchmark externally.

b. Remuneration Policy – Audited continued
Non Executive Directors
Directors' fees have been set at A\$140,000 per annum with a fee of A\$15,000 for service on each Board Committee other than the Nomination Committee. Fee levels are in line with international benchmarks for a company the size of Lend Lease. Current Chairman's fees are A\$500,000, the Chairman of the Risk Management and Audit Committee receives an additional A\$35,000 per annum and the Chairmen of each the Nomination, Personnel and Organisation and Sustainability Committees receive an additional A\$25,000.
In addition, Non Executive Directors are compensated for time spent travelling to overseas Board and Board Committee meetings. This additional time is compensated as follows:
- − Travel less than four hours Nil;
- − Travel between four and 12 hours A\$2,000 each way;
- − Travel over 12 hours A\$5,000 each way.
To allow Directors to receive some of their annual remuneration in shares rather than cash, and thus align their interests with those of shareholders, a Non Executive Directors' Share Ownership Plan was approved at the 2000 Annual General Meeting and subsequently renewed at the 2003 Annual General Meeting. This plan allows Directors to acquire Lend Lease shares by forgoing an amount of Directors' fees equivalent to the value of the shares acquired. Subscriptions are made at the same price, at the same time and otherwise on the same terms as the Share Purchase Plan available to Australian and New Zealand registered shareholders and only while the Share Purchase Plan is operative. A Director is restricted from dealing with these shares until retirement. However, a Director may deal with shares at an earlier time to the extent necessary to meet an earlier tax liability in respect of the shares. This Plan has not been operative during the suspension of the Share Purchase Plan (since September 2003).
Retirement Plan
The Retirement Plan is designed to provide retirement benefits for Directors based on fees for Board service. Benefits are accrued in Lend Lease shares and will fluctuate in line with the value of Lend Lease shares. Under the plan, the Company will issue to, or acquire for, or for the benefit of, each Non Executive Director a number of Lend Lease shares equal in value to 0.2 times the Director's fees (being fees for attending and chairing Board and Board Committee meetings), but not additional fees.
Allocations are made in arrears on 1 January each year. For this purpose, the value of the shares on acquisition will be the weighted average price of Lend Lease shares traded on the Australian Securities Exchange during the five business days prior to 1 January each year. The shares will be accessible only on retirement. Directors will be exposed to share price risk until this time. However, shares may be sold at an earlier time to the extent necessary to meet an earlier tax liability in respect of the shares.
Retirement Plan Changeover Arrangements
A defined benefit Retirement Benefit Plan ('previous plan') was approved by shareholders at the 1990 Annual General Meeting. Changeover arrangements which were approved by shareholders at the 2000 Annual General Meeting have been effected to transition from the previous plan to the current plan for Directors who were on the Board on 31 December 2000. Under these arrangements, retiring Non Executive Directors will receive a multiple applied to the average of their annual emoluments (i.e. Directors' fees and amounts for additional services) over the previous three years. The multiple is 0.6 for each of the first five years of service as a Non Executive Director and 0.2 for each year over five years to 15 years. This multiple for each Director was frozen at the multiple that would have applied if the Director had retired on 31 December 2000.
The following table sets out the accrued retirement benefits under the previous plan as at 30 June 2007 (based on the multiple being frozen on 31 December 2000). The Board has resolved to cap the entitlements under the previous plan at the lower of the accrued retirement benefit as at 30 June 2003 (with interest payable at the 60day bank bill rate) and the retirement benefit calculated at the actual date of retirement.
| Non Executive Directors | Years of Service at 31 December 2000 |
Accrued Retirement Benefit at 30 June 2007 A\$ |
Accrued Retirement Benefit at 30 June 2006 A\$ |
|---|---|---|---|
| G Edington | 1 | 111,249 | 92,467 |
| P Goldmark | 1 | 123,452 | 104,832 |
Non Executive Directors appointed since 1 January 2001 are not eligible to participate in the previous plan.

1The cash element of all STI bonuses has been accrued and paid in cash and is based on the performance criteria as outlined in Section 3b. of this Report.
2 'Other Bonuses' represents additional payments payable to employees who participated in the 2003 LTI grant and were employed on 30 June 2006 (the original vesting date of the grant). The 2003 LTI award did not vest and lapsed in accordance with the rules of the LTI program. The Lend Lease Corporation Board has awarded the additional payment in recognition of the performance achieved. Refer to Section 3b. of this Report.
3'Non Monetary' includes relocation benefits (such as housing, home leave travel, tax equalisation and tax return advice) and motor vehicle costs.
4Accrued value of LTI benefit for the year as determined by actuarial analysis. The 2004 and 2005 LTIs are expected to be settled in cash.
5'Hybrids' represents retention incentives that can be settled in cash or shares at the option of the executive.
6'Other Long Term' primarily represents cash retentions. Amounts due are expensed over the period of the retention.
7Mr McCann commenced as Chief Executive Officer Investment Management on 5 September 2005.
8Mr Bellaman commenced as Chief Executive Officer Lend Lease Communities and Retail Americas on 1 October 2005.
9Mr Hugill commenced as Chief Executive Officer Lend Lease Communities Europe, Middle East and Africa on 15 August 2005.
10Mr Koziol transferred from the role of Chief Executive Officer Lend Lease Communities on 1 October 2005.

The following criteria apply to all parts of Section 3d. of this Report.
- Criteria 1: The ability to achieve the LTI is dependent upon the executive remaining with Lend Lease. If the executive resigns before vesting, the grant will lapse.
- Criteria 2: The award is dependent upon service to vesting date, however, an early redemption date due to cessation of service may result in a pro rata payout.
- Criteria 3: Progressive percentage monthly vesting of award over the respective award service life. (Refer to Section 3e. of this Report for details of Mr Clarke's retention).
- Criteria 4: Forfeiture on resignation. Pro rata on other service cessation.
- Criteria 5: The TSR of Lend Lease is greater than the median TSR of 18 comparator companies (with 25% vesting at median performance rising to 100% on reaching top quartile performance).
- Criteria 6: The TSR of Lend Lease measured against the ASX100 companies (with 50% vesting at median performance, rising to 100% on reaching top quartile performance).
- Criteria 7: The EPS of Lend Lease as reported in the financial statements adjusted for treasury shares and unrealised gains or loses (with 100% vesting if a minimum compound annual growth rate of 10% over the three year performance period).

4. Other
a. Share Options
No share options were issued during the year by the Company or any of its controlled entities, and there are no such options on issue.
b. Indemnification and Insurance of Directors and Officers
The Company's Constitution provides for indemnification in favour of each of the Directors named on pages 1 to 3 of this Report, the Company Secretaries, Mr W Hara and Ms S J Sharpe, and officers of the Company or of wholly owned subsidiaries or related entities of the Company ('Officers') to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.
For related entities, the indemnification is provided unless the Directors determine otherwise. For unrelated entities in which Lend Lease has an interest, deeds of indemnity may be entered into between Lend Lease Corporation Limited and the Director or Officer. Since the date of the last report, the Company has not entered into any separate deeds of indemnity.
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, the Constitution also permits the Company to purchase and maintain insurance or pay or agree to pay a premium for insurance for Officers against any liability incurred as an officer of the Company or of a related body corporate. This may include a liability for reasonable costs and expenses incurred in defending proceedings, whether civil or criminal, and whatever their outcome. During the year, Lend Lease paid insurance premiums of A\$564,323 in respect of its Directors' and Officers' liability policies. Due to confidentiality obligations and undertakings of the policy, no further details in respect of the premium or policy can be disclosed.
4. Other continued
c. Non Audit Services
During the year KPMG, the Company's auditor, performed certain other services in addition to its statutory duties.
The Board has considered the non audit services provided during the year by the auditor and, in accordance with written advice provided by resolution of the Risk Management and Audit Committee, is satisfied that the provision of those non audit services during the year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
- − All non audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the Risk Management and Audit Committee to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor;
- − The non audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 'Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants', as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards.
A copy of the Lead Auditor's Independence Declaration as required under Section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is included at the end of this Report.
Details of the amounts paid to the auditor of the Company, KPMG, and its related practices for audit and non audit services provided during the year are set out below.

1 Profit after tax is after deducting the amount attributable to minority interests of A\$2.7 million (June 2006: A\$7.4 million).
2 Represents the unrealised valuation increases on property investments that are consolidated or accounted for using the equity method in the financial statements.
Profit After Tax
The Group's total profit after tax increased by 20% to A\$497.5 million. The Group recognised revaluation uplifts on its retail investments through the income statement of A\$51.6 million after tax (June 2006: A\$61.0 million).
The Retail business continued to consolidate its position with the successful opening of the Golden Square Shopping Centre in Warrington, UK and the commencement of construction of the Somerset Central development in Singapore. The Retail business profit after tax declined as no retail developments were sold in the current year whereas the prior year included a profit from the sale of the Chapelfield retail centre.
The Communities business profit after tax increased with the higher contributions from Crosby Lend Lease (Crosby) and Actus Lend Lease (Actus). Actus reached financial close on four projects and was named preferred bidder on another three projects in the year. In addition, the US Communities business signed a binding development agreement on the Lowry Range project in Denver, Colorado.
Investment Management launched two new funds in the year. In Australia, the Lend Lease Communities Fund 1 (LLCF1) was launched in July 2006 and the Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund (ARIF) was launched in Singapore in December 2006, with final close for this fund completed in May 2007. In Europe, profit after tax increased due to the significant profit distributions received from the Group's investment in Lend Lease Global Properties, SICAF (Global Fund) and the sale of the Group's interest in Generali Lend Lease (GLL).
Project Management, Construction and PFIs' profit after tax decreased in the year as a result of the A\$118.8 million after tax provision reported at December 2006, which was taken against certain UK projects including the Manchester Joint Hospitals project. Bovis Lend Lease increased profit after tax in both Asia Pacific and the Americas.
PFIs' profit after tax reflects increased equity returns from investments and the recovery of bid costs. However, profit after tax decreased as the prior year included profit arising from the Lend Lease and Bank of Scotland PFI joint venture where the parties equalised their investment in 11 PFI projects.
Overview continued
Profit After Tax continued
Corporate costs before tax decreased, however corporate costs after tax increased due to the prior year including the reversal of a tax provision.
Group Treasury profit after tax increased due to the recognition of interest income following a favourable judgement in the Federal Court on a tax dispute with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Property investment revaluation gains of A\$51.6 million after tax were recognised through the income statement. In addition, revaluation gains of A\$44.9 million after tax are not included in statutory profit but are recognised in the Fair Value Revaluation Reserve in the financial statements. The value of Lend Lease's interest in Bluewater also increased, however as Bluewater is held as inventory, the asset is recorded at historical cost in the financial statements.
Shareholder Returns
| June 2007 | June 2006 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Earnings per share (EPS) on operating profit1 | cents | 111.4 | 88.7 |
| EPS on total profit1 | cents | 124.3 | 104.0 |
| Return on equity (ROE) on total profit2 | % | 15.7 | 14.7 |
1 EPS is calculated using the weighted average shares on issue including treasury shares. Under the Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS), shares held in employee benefit vehicles including employee share plans, which Lend Lease sponsors, are treated as treasury stock and are excluded from the calculation. This would have the effect of increasing the EPS calculations above if applied.
2 ROE is calculated based on total profit after tax (excluding minority interests) and average equity.
Dividends
A final 50% franked dividend of 42 cents per share will be paid on 12 September 2007 (June 2006: 31 cents per share fully franked). On a full year basis, this equates to a total dividend of 77 cents which is a payout ratio of 69.2% of operating profit after tax.
Credit Strength
| June 2007 | June 2006 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Net debt1 | A\$m | 526.1 | 286.5 |
| Net debt to total tangible assets | % | 6.2 | 3.9 |
| Net debt to shareholders' equity plus net debt | % | 14.0 | 8.7 |
| Interest coverage2 | times | 7.9 | 7.8 |
| Credit rating (Standard & Poor's/Moody's) | rating | BBB/Baa3 | BBB/Baa3 |
1 Net debt is borrowings less cash.
2 Calculated as operating EBITDA plus interest revenue divided by gross borrowing costs, including capitalised borrowing costs.
The Group's gearing remained low throughout the year and interest coverage at 7.9 times is above the Group's internal targets. The Group continues to maintain an investmentgrade credit rating.
Cash Flow
| June 2007 A\$m |
June 2006 A\$m |
|
|---|---|---|
| Net cash provided by operating activities | 357.2 | 660.3 |
| Net cash used in investing activities | (382.7) | (910.1) |
| Net cash provided by financing activities | 57.1 | 233.8 |
| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents | (41.0) | 5.9 |
| Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents | (9.4) | (10.1) |
Operating cash flows of A\$357.2 million reflect the strong underlying cash flows from the Group's operating businesses net of continued investment in property developments. The decrease from the prior year is primarily attributable to June 2006 including the proceeds on the sale of the Chapelfield retail centre of A\$532.0 million.
Investing cash outflows of A\$382.7 million reflects the Group's recycling of capital including coinvestments in new investment management funds launched in the year (LLCF1 and ARIF) offset by capital redemptions from the Global Fund. The prior year included the acquisition of Crosby of A\$619.3 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities of A\$57.1 million includes £300.0 million borrowings raised from the issue of the 6.125% annual coupon guaranteed notes in the UK public bond market in October 2006, offset by the net repayment of £185.0 million in respect of the £350.0 million syndicated bank facility in the UK and dividend payments of A\$237.2 million.

Notes to the Concise Financial Statements
1. Basis of Preparation of Concise Financial Report
The concise financial report has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Accounting Standard AASB 1039 'Concise Financial Reports'. The financial statements and specific disclosures have been derived from the consolidated entity's (the 'Group') full financial report for the financial year. Other information included in the concise financial report is consistent with the consolidated entity's full financial report. The concise financial report does not, and cannot be expected to, provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the consolidated entity as the full financial report. It has been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the following assets and liabilities which are stated at their fair value: derivative financial instruments, investments held for trading, investments available for sale and investment property. Recognised assets and liabilities that are hedged are stated at fair value in respect of the risk that is hedged.
A full description of the accounting policies adopted by the consolidated entity may be found in the consolidated entity's full financial report.
These accounting policies have been consistently applied by all entities in the consolidated entity.
The presentation currency is Australian dollars.
Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The estimates and judgements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
The consolidated entity's full financial report contains information about the assumptions and their risk factors relating to goodwill impairment, as well as detailed analysis of the foreign exchange exposure of the consolidated entity and risks in relation to foreign exchange movements.
Impairment of Goodwill
The Group assesses whether goodwill is impaired at least annually. These calculations involve an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash generating units to which the goodwill is allocated.
Valuation of Assets and Recoverable Amounts
The Group assesses the fair value of certain assets by use of estimation techniques where there is no available market price. The Group assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of certain assets using estimations of their recoverable amount.
Defined Benefit Superannuation Fund Obligations
Various actuarial assumptions are utilised in determining the Group's defined benefit superannuation/pension fund obligations.
Critical Accounting Judgements in Applying the Group's Accounting Policies
In the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, the Group makes various judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that can significantly affect the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements. These include:
- − When substantially all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of development properties are transferred to the purchaser;
- − The percentage completion on construction work performed;
- − Whether the substance of the relationship between the Group and a special purpose entity indicates that the special purpose entity is consolidated by the Group.

Dividend Franking
The final dividend of 42 cents per share declared since 30 June 2007 will be 50% franked. The interim dividend paid on 27 March 2007 (35 cents per share) was 50% franked.
The dividend franking account balance at 30 June 2007 is A\$56.2 million based on a 30% tax rate (30 June 2006: A\$94.6 million). This is calculated after adjusting for franking credits which will arise from the payment of income tax provided in the accounts, tax losses utilised in the current financial year and expected franking debits arising from refunds of tax in dispute. It excludes the A\$36.1 million (June 2006: A\$53.1 million) franking debit impact of the proposed dividend of A\$168.5 million (June 2006: A\$123.9 million) and the franking credits which arose from the payment of tax in dispute in relation to the sale of Westpac shares in 1996.

8. Events Subsequent to Balance Date
Sale of Units in Australian Prime Property Fund (APPF)
On 11 July 2007, Lend Lease sold a proportion of its interest in APPF Retail for A\$263.8 million. As at 30 June 2007, a cumulative gain of A\$32.6 million before tax was recognised in the fair value revaluation reserve relating to this interest.
Withdrawal of Australian Tax Office (ATO) appeal to Federal Court on Westpac Warrants Issue
On 10 August 2007 the ATO withdrew its appeal relating to the Federal Court's decision in December 2006 regarding Lend Lease's sale of Westpac shares.
Following the withdrawal of its appeal, the ATO will be required to repay to Lend Lease the balance of the payment Lend Lease made under the amended assessment issued in 2002, plus interest. The repayment of the monies by the ATO has no impact on earnings.
