Stapling arrangement
Shares in the Company and units in LLT are traded as one security under the name of Lend Lease Group on the Australian Securities Exchange ('ASX'). The Company is deemed to control LLT for accounting purposes and therefore LLT is consolidated into the Group's financial report. The issued units of LLT, however, are not owned by the Company and are therefore presented as non controlling interests in the consolidated entity statement of financial position within equity, notwithstanding that the unitholders of LLT are also the shareholders of the Company.
Distributions
| Amount per security |
Franked amount per security |
|
|---|---|---|
| Interim distribution – payable 21 March 2014 | 22.0 cents | 0.0 cents |
The interim distribution is comprised of an unfranked dividend of 17.500105 cents per share payable by the Company, sourced from the Conduit Foreign Income ('CFI') account, and a trust distribution of 4.499895 cents per unit payable by LLT.
The record date for determining entitlement to the interim distribution is 7 March 2014 ('Record Date') and the distribution is payable on 21 March 2014.
The Group's Distribution Reinvestment Plan ('DRP') was reactivated in February 2011. The last date for receipt of an election notice for participation in the DRP is 7 March 2014. Subject to the rules of the DRP, the issue price is the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of Lend Lease stapled securities traded on the Australian Securities Exchange for the period of five consecutive business days immediately following the Record Date. Stapled securities issued under the DRP rank equally with all other stapled securities on issue.

Overview
Introduction
Lend Lease's vision is to create the best places, which supports its strategic direction 'to be the leading international property and infrastructure group'. The Group operates a regional management structure focused on four major geographic regions: Australia, Asia, Europe and the Americas. The regional business units generate earnings from four lines of business:
- Development: involves the development of urban communities, inner-city mixed-use developments, apartments, retirement, retail, commercial and healthcare assets;
- Construction: involves project management, building, engineering and construction services;
- Investment Management: involves property and infrastructure investment management, property management and asset management and includes the Group's ownership interests in property and infrastructure investments; and
- Infrastructure Development: arranges, manages and invests in Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects.
The Group made further progress implementing its strategy during the period with the following key highlights.

- Infrastructure Development: the financial close of Darling Harbour Live in the period takes the Group's equity investment in the sector to A\$519.2 million, with the business well positioned to access new pipeline opportunities.

The prior period included earnings relating to the first two commercial towers at Barangaroo South and the divestment of Greenwich Peninsula Regeneration Limited;
- Profit after tax is down 16% and includes an increase in depreciation and amortisation associated with the Group's transformation program and a reduced recognition of tax deductions associated with the retirement living business;
- Effective tax rate is 14.9% (December 2012: 13.2%) mainly due to benefits from the recognition of tax deductions associated with the retirement living business and a higher earnings contribution from the Singapore business;
- Operating cash outflows of A\$211.0 million are largely due to net investment into Development projects in the period;
- Net debt and gearing % increase is a result of the investment in Development production and the APPF platform.

Overview
Cash Flow
The Group had a net cash outflow in the period of A\$543.0 million. The Group considers cash flows from operations to include the cash flow from business operations and any activity associated with these operations; this is aligned to the Group's definition of profit. In previous periods the Group has provided an indication of these cash flows through a reclassification of cash flow from investing to operating. However, with the application of the new AASB 11 Joint Arrangements standard the reclassification in the current period is immaterial.
Outlined in the table below are cash flows in accordance with accounting standards and as reported in the Group's financial statements for the period.
| December 2013 | December 2012 | |
|---|---|---|
| Cash flows from operating activities | A\$m (211.0) |
A\$m (47.5) |
| Cash flows from investing activities | (603.9) | 112.9 |
| Cash flows from financing activities | 242.4 | (23.4) |
| Effect of foreign exchange rate movements on cash and cash equivalents | 29.5 | (12.7) |
| Total cash flows | (543.0) | 29.3 |
The key components of the net cash outflow include:
- Operating cash outflows of A\$211.0 million are largely due to net investment of production capital into Development projects;
- Investing cash outflows of A\$603.9 million include investments in APPF Commercial and APPF Industrial and acquisition of and capital expenditure on retirement living investment properties. The prior period included the proceeds from the sale of the Group's interest in Greenwich Peninsula Regeneration Limited;
- Financing cash inflows of A\$242.4 million primarily relate to draw downs of the revolving AUD syndicated and GBP club credit facilities offset by the repayment of the Bluewater finance lease.

In Australia, profit after tax decreased by A\$80.8 million to A\$223.5 million.
- Development profit after tax decreased by A\$52.3 million to A\$112.5 million. The business experienced improved residential activity as the market strengthened; however, this was offset by lower revenue from the commercial sector compared to the prior period which included initial earnings relating to the first two commercial towers at Barangaroo South;
- Construction profit after tax decreased by A\$42.1 million to A\$51.9 million. The result for the period has been impacted by restructure costs (A\$17.9 million after tax) associated with the transition to the new business structure, which took effect in August 2013 and bid costs incurred in pursuing major projects;
- Investment Management profit after tax increased by A\$27.6 million to A\$40.8 million mainly due to additional investment income from increased investments in APPF Commercial and APPF Industrial during the period;
- Infrastructure Development profit after tax decreased by A\$14.0 million to A\$18.3 million. The current period is comprised principally of fees received following the financial close on the redevelopment of the Sydney Convention Centre at Darling Harbour Live and an increase in asset and facilities management fees. The prior period included profit from fees received following the financial close of two projects: Sunshine Coast University Hospital and Eastern Goldfields Regional Prison.
The Australia business secured a number of significant projects during the period:
- Development Agreement for Batman's Hill, a Melbourne redevelopment adjacent to Victoria Harbour, with a development end value of approximately A\$1.5 billion;
- Financial close with Infrastructure NSW and the Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority to deliver the A\$1.0 billion PPP component of the NSW Government's Darling Harbour Live project to revitalise 20 hectares of Darling Harbour. The Construction business will perform the design and construction and the Infrastructure Development business is acting as PPP development manager and financial adviser to the consortium. The Group will invest 50% of the equity in the project vehicle.
In addition, the Group achieved a number of key milestones on the Barangaroo South development during the period:
- Negotiations with tenants continued, with signed pre-commitments now secured for 77% of the commercial floor space in the first two commercial towers following the signing of an Agreement For Lease with Gilbert + Tobin;
- Negotiations continued with Crown for the development of an international hotel and casino;
- In July 2013, planning approval was received for the first two residential buildings, Anadara and Alexander, totalling 159 apartments. These residential buildings were launched on 31 August 2013 with 100% pre sales achieved on launch. Early enquiry from potential customers for future stage residential towers is strong.

1 Includes 100% of joint venture projects and therefore will not necessarily correlate with the Group's profit after tax.
2 Pre sales do not form part of profit after tax in the current period and are expected to be recognised in future years. Pre sales land lots represent contracts entered into prior to 31 December 2013 that have not met the revenue recognition criteria. Pre sales built-form represents contracts entered into prior to 31 December 2013 for buildings that have not achieved completion. Joint venture sales are shown at 100% of sales value.
3 The number of units settled and pre sales number of units are not relevant measures for the commercial segment. 4 December 2012 Commercial pre sales have been restated to include the full benefit of the Barangaroo contracts.
5 Backlog – residential includes the total number of units in both Group-owned and joint venture projects. The actual number of units for any particular project can vary as planning applications are approved.
Key trading events in the Residential and Commercial sector during the period include:
Residential land lots:
- Settlements increased by 43%, reflecting improved trading in NSW from Jordan Springs, Ropes Crossing and Rouse Hill; in WA from Alkimos; and from South-East Queensland projects, including Yarrabilba and Springfield Lakes;
- Pre sales increased by 28% from the prior period to 1,874 units demonstrating momentum leading into the second half of the 2014 financial year.
Residential built-form units:
- Settlements increased due to completions at Victoria Harbour and Richmond;
- Average price per unit settled of A\$1.2 million mainly relates to high rise, premium apartments at Victoria Harbour;
- Pre sales increased by 60% to 802, attributable to pre sales of the Anadara and Alexander at Barangaroo South (100% pre sold); additional sales at 'The Green' at RNA, Brisbane (78% pre sold) and the launch of Concavo (87% pre sold);
- Average price of pre sales increased primarily due to the launch of premium units at the Anadara and Alexander.
Commercial:
- During the period construction commenced on 'K1', the first commercial tower at RNA;
- Gross sales value of A\$60.7 million primarily relates to revenue from Barangaroo South and divestment of Merchant Street retail and a commercial building at Victoria Harbour. The prior period primarily related to initial earnings from the first two commercial towers at Barangaroo South.
Backlog:
- The reduction in the number of projects is due to the completion of Coolbellup, WA; Varsity Lakes, Qld; and Mawson Lakes, SA, offset by the inclusion of North Lakes, WA and Batman's Hill, Vic;
- The Group executed a Development Agreement for the Batman's Hill, Vic redevelopment with an end development value of approximately A\$1.5 billion. This contributed 605 units to residential built-form backlog and 120,000 square metres to commercial backlog;
- The Group signed a Deed of Amendment for Springfield Lakes, an existing project, which contributed an additional 2,345 residential land lots to backlog.

Although backlog is realised over several years, the average foreign exchange rate for the current year has been applied to the closing backlog balance in its entirety as the average rates for later years cannot be predicted. In local currency, the backlog revenue is US\$372.3 million (June 2013: US\$378.7 million).
Key trading events in the Infrastructure Development business during the period include:
- The majority of military housing projects continue to reach stabilisation of operations as the initial development periods come to completion. However, opportunities remain for further development over the remaining term of the ground leases;
- Backlog revenue remains strong in the current period.
Corporate
Group Services
Group Services loss after tax decreased by A\$27.9 million to A\$51.6 million. The prior period included one-off costs associated with the write-off of the Group's investment in Better Place, the Group's transformation program and the Abigroup investigation.
Group Treasury
Group Treasury manages the Group's liquidity, foreign exchange exposures, interest rate risk and debt.

| Total Group Treasury | (65.3) | (46.5) | (45.7) | (32.6) |
Key trading elements of the Group Treasury contribution during the period include:
- Reduced interest revenue of A\$5.2 million is due to lower average cash balances and interest rates compared to the prior period. The interest rate on invested cash averaged 2.9% per annum for the period (December 2012: 3.2%);
- Increased interest expense of A\$12.6 million is primarily due to increased debt facility drawdowns in the period. The Group's weighted average cost of debt at 31 December 2013 is 5.25% (December 2012: 6.0%);
- Net hedge cost increase is primarily driven by an increase in cash flow hedges relating to new projects;
- The Group announced the completion of a A\$3.25 billion syndicated multi-option banking facility. The facility refinances existing facilities and is comprised of a A\$1.5 billion revolving loan facility and a A\$1.75 billion bank guarantee facility.

1 New work secured revenue is the total revenue to be earned from projects secured during the period.
2 Current period backlog revenue is the total revenue to be earned from projects in future financial years, based on projects secured as at 31 December 2013. Although backlog revenue is realised over several years, the average foreign exchange rate for the current period has been applied to the closing backlog revenue balance in its entirety, as the average rates for later years cannot be predicted.

1. Significant Accounting Policies
Lend Lease Corporation Limited ('the Company') is incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial report of the Company for the half year ended 31 December 2013 comprises the Company and its controlled entities including Lend Lease Trust ('LLT') (together referred to as the 'consolidated entity' or the 'Group'). The Group is a for-profit entity and is an international property and infrastructure group. Further information about the Group's primary activities is included in Note 17 'Segment Reporting'.
Shares in the Company and units in LLT are traded as one security under the name of Lend Lease Group on the Australian Securities Exchange ('ASX'). The Company is deemed to control LLT for accounting purposes and therefore LLT is consolidated into the Group's financial report. The issued units of LLT, however, are not owned by the Company and are therefore presented separately in the consolidated entity Statement of Financial Position within equity, notwithstanding that the unitholders of LLT are also the shareholders of the Company.
In accordance with Class Order 13/1050, the Group has prepared a consolidated financial report for the stapled group.
The half year consolidated financial report was authorised for issue by the Directors on 26 February 2014.
1.1 Statement of Compliance
The half year consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001. The half year consolidated financial report of the Group also complies with the recognition and measurement requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') and Interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The half year consolidated financial report should be read in conjunction with the 30 June 2013 annual consolidated financial report and any public announcements by the Group during the half year in accordance with continuous disclosure obligations arising under the Corporations Act 2001. The half year consolidated financial report does not include all of the information required for a full financial report.
1.2 Basis of Preparation
The half year consolidated 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, fair value through profit or loss investments, available for sale investments, investment properties, resident liabilities and liabilities for cash settled share based compensation plans.
The preparation of an interim financial report that complies with AASB 134 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, 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 judgements about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In accordance with Class Order 98/100, amounts in the financial report are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars unless otherwise indicated.
The accounting policies have been consistently applied by all entities in the Group and are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the 30 June 2013 annual consolidated financial report, other than as stated in Note 1.3 'Impact of New/Revised Accounting Standards'.
Under Australian Accounting Standards, resident liabilities are required to be classified as current liabilities as residents may depart the accommodation at any time, notwithstanding that history has shown that residents stay for an average period of 11 years in Independent Living Units ('ILU') and seven years in Serviced Apartments ('SA').
Basis of Consolidation
The Group consolidation comprises all entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power to direct the relevant activities, has exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of returns. 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.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies with adjustments made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.
The Group invests in structured entities ('SEs') for trading and investment purposes. The SEs are consolidated if the substance of the relationship with the Group is such that the Group controls the SE and has the power to direct the relevant activities, has exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the SE and has the ability to use its power over the SE to affect the amount of returns.
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 less impairments in the Company's financial statements. The Company sponsors a number of employee benefit vehicles, including employee security plans. These vehicles, while not legally controlled, are required to be consolidated for accounting purposes.
External non controlling interests are allocated their share of total comprehensive income and are presented within equity in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position, separately from the equity of securityholders.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
1.3 Impact of New/Revised Accounting Standards
New and Revised Accounting Standards
From 1 July 2013 the Group has adopted the following new and revised accounting standards, together with the consequential amendments:
- AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and consequential amendments introduce a new definition of control in determining whether an entity should be included within the consolidated financial statements of the parent company. AASB 10 replaces parts of AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and UIG-112 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. As a result of adopting the new standard, there has been no significant impact on the Group's financial position and performance. The Group has revised its significant accounting policies to reflect this change. Refer to 'Basis of Consolidation'.
- AASB 11 Joint Arrangements and consequential amendments establish principles for financial reporting by parties to a joint arrangement. AASB 11 replaces AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures and UIG-113 Jointly Controlled Entities – Non-monetary Contributions by Venturers. Refer to Note 1.4 'Equity Accounted Investments (Associates and Joint Ventures)' and Note 1.5 'Joint Operations' for revised accounting policies.
The Group has reclassified some previously reported jointly controlled entities to joint operations under the new standard. As the new standard must be adopted retrospectively, adjustments have been recognised at 1 July 2012 and the financial statements were restated for the comparative period being 31 December 2012 for the Income Statement, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows and 30 June 2013 for the Statement of Financial Position. There has been no net impact to the Group's equity or profit and loss, however, there has been a restatement to the classification of some recognised assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The adjustments were as follows:
- − Income Statement: revenues increased by A\$503.6 million, cost of sales increased by A\$419.8 million, and other expenses (depreciation) increased by A\$0.1 million. The share of profit from equity accounted investments decreased by A\$83.7 million. There was no impact on profit after tax, EPS and EPSS.
- − Statement of Comprehensive Income: no impact.
- − Statement of Financial Position: no impact to net assets and total equity. Current assets increased by A\$194.8 million (including inventories A\$43.1 million), non current assets decreased by A\$56.4 million (including inventories that increased by A\$9.6 million, investment properties that increased by A\$28.5 million and equity accounted investments that decreased by A\$98.7 million) and current liabilities increased by A\$138.4 million.
-
− Statement of Changes in Equity: no impact.
-
− Statement of Cash Flows: net total cash flows increased by A\$1.5 million as operating activities increased by A\$32.1 million, investing activities decreased by A\$19.0 million, financing activities decreased by A\$11.6 million and cash and cash equivalents increased by A\$94.5 million.
- − AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities relates to disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. As a result of adopting the new standard, new disclosures have been introduced about the judgements made to determine whether control exists and summarised financial information about certain material joint arrangements and associates. Refer to Note 10 'Equity Accounted Investments' and Note 16 'Consolidated Entities'.
- − AASB 13 Fair Value Measurements and consequential amendments introduce new guidance on fair value measurement and disclosure requirements when fair value is permitted by accounting standards. As a result of adopting the new standard, there has been no significant impact on the Group's financial position and performance. There have been no significant changes to the Group's accounting policies where fair value is used as a measurement basis or disclosures on fair value are required. Disclosures required under the new standard in relation to the fair value hierarchy have been included in Note 18 'Fair Value Measurement'.
- − The revised AASB 119 Employee Benefits (June 2011) and consequential amendments introduce changes to the accounting for and presentation of pensions and other employment benefits. The revised standard eliminates the corridor approach, which defers the recognition of actuarial gains and losses attributable to the Group's defined benefit plans in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The revised standard also requires the net interest expense on fund obligations and interest income on assets to be determined by applying the discount rate used to measure the fund obligations. Previously, the Group determined interest income on fund assets based on the expected long term return for each asset class. The actuarial gains and losses and return on plan assets are referred to as remeasurements under the revised standard. Refer to Note 1.6 'Employee Benefits' for revised accounting policies.
The revised standard does not mandate where to present remeasurements in equity. The Group has chosen to recognise remeasurements directly in retained earnings. As the revised standard must be adopted retrospectively, adjustments have been recognised at 1 July 2012 and the financial statements were restated for the comparative period being 31 December 2012 for the Income Statement, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows and 30 June 2013 for the Statement of Financial Position.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
1.3 Impact of New/Revised Accounting Standards continued
New and Revised Accounting Standards continued
The adjustments were as follows:
- − Income Statement: the net defined benefit expense increased by A\$1.7 million, income tax expense decreased by A\$0.3 million and profit after tax decreased by A\$1.4 million, having a 0.2 cents per share impact on EPS and EPSS.
- − Statement of Comprehensive Income: increase by A\$4.3 million due to decrease in profit after tax of A\$1.4 million, after tax gains of A\$3.4 million on defined benefit plans remeasurements and A\$2.3 million in foreign currency translation.
- − Statement of Financial Position: net assets and total equity decreased by A\$62.5 million after tax due to the remeasurements on the defined benefit plans and associated deferred taxes being recognised A\$62.2 million and A\$0.3 million in foreign currency translation.
- − Statement of Changes in Equity: the foreign currency translation reserve had gains of A\$2.3 million after tax. Retained earnings decreased due to the retrospective application on the opening balance of A\$81.5 million, the loss impact on profit after tax of A\$1.4 million and the remeasurement gains of A\$3.4 million recognised in the period. Total retained earnings decreased by A\$79.5 million after tax. Total equity decreased by A\$77.2 million for the period.
- − Statement of Cash Flows: no impact.
The revised standard has also changed the accounting for the Group's current employee entitlements, as entitlements that are not expected to be settled within 12 months of balance sheet date are required to be discounted using a government bond rate akin to the expected settlement of the entitlement. However, the impact of this change was immaterial since the majority of leave is still expected to be taken within the short term after the end of the reporting period.
The standards above became mandatory effective 1 July 2013. With the exception of AASB 13, which applies prospectively, the standards have been applied retrospectively.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the half year ended 31 December 2013 but are available for early adoption and have not been applied in preparing this report.
The potential effect of these is outlined below:
- − AASB 9 Financial Instruments and consequential amendments address the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities and hedging. The potential effect of this standard is yet to be determined.
- − AASB 2013-3 Amendments to AASB 136 Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets introduces additional disclosures about the recoverable amount of impaired assets if that amount is based on fair value less
costs of disposal. The potential effect of this standard is yet to be determined.
- − AASB 2013-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting permits the continuation of hedge accounting in circumstances where a derivative that has been designated as a hedging instrument, is novated from one counterparty to a central counterparty as a consequence of laws or regulations. The potential effect of this standard is yet to be determined.
- − AASB 2013-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Investment Entities provides an exemption from consolidation of subsidiaries under AASB 10 for entities that meet the definition of an 'investment entity', such as certain investment funds. Instead, such entities would measure their investment in particular subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss. The potential effect of this standard is yet to be determined.
1.4 Equity Accounted Investments (Associates and Joint Ventures)
Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Associates (including partnerships) are entities in which the Group, as a result of its voting rights, has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies.
A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
The consolidated financial statements include the Group's share of the total recognised gains or losses of associates and joint ventures on an equity accounted basis. For associates, this is from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases, and for joint ventures, this is from the date joint control commences until the date joint control ceases.
Other movements in associates' and joint ventures' reserves are recognised directly in the Group's consolidated reserves. Investments in associates and joint ventures 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 equity accounted investment (including assets that form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture entity), the carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has recourse to obligations in respect of the associate or joint venture. Dividends from associates and joint ventures 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 equity accounted investments are eliminated against the investment in the associate or joint venture to the extent of the Group's interest in the associate or joint venture. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
1.4 Equity Accounted Investments (Associates and Joint Ventures) continued
Venture Capital Exemption
Investments held by a subsidiary of the Group that is deemed to be a venture capital organisation are carried at fair value even though the Group may have significant influence or joint control over those entities.
This accounting is permitted by AASB 128 Investments in Associates and AASB 11Joint Arrangements which require investments held by venture capital organisations to be excluded from their scope when those investments are designated as at 'fair value through profit or loss' from inception.
The investments made by the venture capital organisation are considered to be venture capital in nature due to management of the investments on a portfolio basis and are unrelated to the Group's key business activities.
The application of this exemption is assessed on each investment made by the venture capital organisation.
1.5 Joint Operations
A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement.
Investments in joint operations are accounted for by recognising amounts on a line by line basis in accordance with the Standards applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in relation to the Group's interest in the joint operation.
1.6 Employee Benefits
Superannuation/Pension Obligations
Group companies operate various superannuation and pension schemes. The schemes are generally funded through payments to insurance companies or trustee-administered 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.
The asset or liability recognised in the Statement of Financial Position 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. The defined benefit obligation is calculated at least 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 the terms of the related pension liability.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes to actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Statement of Financial Position.
Past service costs are recognised immediately in the Income Statement.
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.
Short-Term 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 amounts based on remuneration, wage and salary rates including related on-costs. Current entitlements are those that the Group expects to settle within 12 months from balance sheet date. Non current entitlements are those that the Group expects to settle in greater than 12 months and are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows. 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.
Long-Term 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 sheet date. Consideration is given to expected future increases in wage and salary rates, including related on-costs 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 security 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.
1. Significant Accounting Policies continued
1.6 Employee Benefits continued
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 sheet date are discounted to present value.
Profit Sharing and Bonus Plans
The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit sharing. These amounts are calculated using undiscounted values and are based on a formula that takes into consideration the profit attributable to the Group's securityholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognises a provision when contractually obliged or when there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.
1.7 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 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 from the end of the financial year is classified as current inventory.
The recoverable amount of each holding is assessed at each balance date and a provision for diminution in value is raised where cost (including costs to complete) exceeds net realisable value. In determining the recoverable amount, regard is given to the market conditions affecting each property and the underlying strategy for selling the property.
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.
Work in progress is presented as part of inventories for all contracts in which costs incurred plus recognised profits exceed progress billings. If progress billings and recognised losses exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits, then the difference is presented in trade and other payables
1.8 Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
Valuation of Assets and Recoverable Amounts
The Group assesses the fair value of certain assets and liabilities by using estimation techniques where there is no available market or exit price. The Group assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of assets held at cost or amortised cost using estimations of their recoverable amount. Refer to Note 1.7 'Inventories' and Note 11 'Investment Properties'. Refer to Note 18 'Fair Value Measurement' for a summary of the basis of valuation of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations have been classified.
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 all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of development properties are substantially transferred to the purchaser;
- The percentage of completion on construction work performed; and
- Whether the substance of the relationship between the Group and a structured or sponsored entity indicates that the entity should be consolidated by the Group.

1 June 2013 has been adjusted to reflect the impact of the first time adoption of the new AASB 11 Joint Arrangements standard (refer to Note 1.3 'Impact of New/Revised Accounting Standards').
The gross fair value of retirement living properties was A\$4,399.2 million at 31 December 2013 (30 June 2013: A\$3,819.6 million). The net value of retirement living properties was A\$1,249.3 million (30 June 2013: A\$1,063.7 million), representing the gross investment property fair value, less resident liabilities and related deferred revenue.
Valuations
The key assumptions used in the fair value assessments, including those classified as assets under construction, have been derived from market evidence and are summarised below.
Retirement Living Properties
Properties are valued on a net basis. The key long term assumptions adopted in the basis of valuation at the reporting date included:
- Weighted average discount rate of 13.3% (June 2013: 13.2%);
- Weighted average future growth rate of 3.8% (June 2013: 3.9%); and
- Average length of stay: 11 years for independent living units (June 2013: 11 years) and seven years for serviced apartments (June 2013: six years).
For retirement living properties included in assets under construction, the assumptions adopted in determining the fair values at 31 December 2013 included discount rates between 14% and 17% (June 2013: 14% and 17%) based on the stage of development and the assessed project risk, and a weighted average growth rate of 3.4% (June 2013: 3.6%).

The Group's Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP) was reactivated in February 2011. The last date for receipt of an election notice for participation in the DRP is 7 March 2014. The issue price is the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of Lend Lease stapled securities traded on the Australian Securities Exchange for the period of five consecutive business days immediately following the record date for determining entitlements to distribution. If that price is less than 50 cents, the issue price will be 50 cents. Stapled securities issued under the DRP rank equally with all other stapled securities on issue.
Terms and Conditions
Issued capital for Lend Lease Corporation Limited comprises ordinary shares fully paid.
A stapled security represents one share in the Company stapled to one unit in LLT.
Stapled securityholders have the right to receive declared dividends from the Company and distributions from LLT and are entitled to one vote per stapled security at securityholders' meetings. Ordinary stapled securityholders rank after all creditors in repayment of capital.
The Group does not have authorised capital or par value in respect of its issued stapled securities.
Treasury Securities
Represents unallocated Lend Lease stapled securities held by employee benefit vehicles, including employee security plans, that Lend Lease sponsors. The value reflects the original historical cost to the Group. The consolidated balance represents the stapled securities that are disclosed in the Statement of Financial Position as treasury securities as a reduction of equity.

15. Contingent Liabilities
The Group has the following contingent liabilities:
There are a number of legal claims and exposures that 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, that 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, the Company guarantees the performance of particular Group entities in respect of their obligations. This includes bonding and bank guarantee facilities used primarily by the Construction business as well as performance guarantees for certain Development business commercial built-form developments. 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.
The Group has, over the years, established a range of employee share ownership vehicles which include the Lend Lease Retirement Benefit Fund ('RBF') and the Lend Lease Employee Investment Trust ('EIT'). In the event of a change of control, the RBF and EIT Trustees may distribute the funds of these Trusts to employees who cease to be employees during the 12 months after a change of control. Any payments made need to be funded by these Trusts and cannot exceed the value of the assets of the Trusts. As RBF and EIT are consolidated by the Company, this potential obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability. Full details are disclosed in the 30 June 2013 annual consolidated financial report.
In September 2004, a class action was filed against a number of parties who responded to the World Trade Center ('WTC') 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 Lend Lease (US) Construction LMB Inc. formerly known as Bovis Lend Lease LMB, Inc. ('LL LMB') (a subsidiary of Lend Lease). As of 31 December 2013, there were only two cases remaining against another party and none against LL LMB. One case against LL LMB previously dismissed by the Court is currently on appeal. LL LMB will need to defend any new claims that may be filed by plaintiffs who bring claims against LL LMB. Any future litigation would need to proceed through a number of stages before any liability could attach to LL LMB. It is not possible to quantify the potential for any future claims or any potential liability thereof at this stage. It is also not possible at this time to ascertain how the limitation of liability in the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 ('Zadroga Act') will apply to any particular claim against LL LMB going forward; but, as to contractors such as LL LMB, the Zadroga Act limits liability to those amounts remaining in the WTC Captive Insurance Company (an entity which administers the captive insurance policy established by the US Congress to protect the City of New York and its contractors from claims that may arise from the clean-up that followed the WTC emergency),
plus any insurance coverage that was available and applicable on 11 September 2001 for the particular contractor. More detailed notes on the history of this issue are disclosed in the 30 June 2013 annual consolidated financial report.
In 2009, LL LMB received subpoenas from both the New York County District Attorney's Office ('DA's Office') and the US Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York ('EDNY'). The subpoenas related primarily to investigations being conducted by the EDNY and the DA's Office around allegations of past payroll and billing practices on construction projects. In early 2011, LL LMB was advised the investigation by the EDNY was expanded to include LL LMB's use of minority-owned business enterprises. On 23 April 2012, LL LMB agreed to a resolution with the EDNY and the DA's Office to conclude the criminal investigations and enter into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement ('Agreement'), for a two year term. Payments to be made in connection with the agreement were fully provided for as at 31 December 2013.
On 17 July 2012, the Company's attorneys were contacted by the New York State Attorney General's ('NYSAG') Office, seeking further information with respect to New York State projects concerning the same investigations by the EDNY referred to above. The Company has been cooperating with the inquiry by the NYSAG's Office, but at this stage the discussions remain preliminary, and it is not possible to quantify what the financial consequences associated with this matter will be.

17. Segment Reporting
The segment results are discussed and analysed in the Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) included with this report.
The Group operates a regional management structure focused on four major geographic regions: Australia, Asia, Europe and the Americas, to better support the Group's integrated model and provide a platform to develop regional investment opportunities. The Group has identified these operating segments based on internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director (the chief operating decision maker) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.
The regional business units generate earnings from four lines of business, as follows:
Development
The Development business involves the development of urban communities, inner-city mixed-use developments, apartments, retirement, retail, commercial and healthcare assets.
Construction
The Construction business involves project management, building, engineering and construction services.
Investment Management
The Investment Management business involves property and infrastructure investment management, property management and asset management and includes the Group's ownership interests in property and infrastructure investments.
Infrastructure Development
The Infrastructure Development business arranges, manages and invests in Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects.
Segment performance is based on operating profit after tax. Operating profit after tax is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain reportable segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. The Group does not consider corporate activities to be an operating segment. Financial information regarding the performance of each reportable segment and a reconciliation of these reportable segments to the financial statements is included below.

18. Fair Value Measurement
All financial instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position, including those instruments carried at amortised cost, are recognised at amounts that represent a reasonable approximation of fair value, with the exception of the following borrowings.

| Commercial notes | 13 | 1,377.7 | 1,448.3 | 1,295.0 | 1,354.8 |
The fair value of commercial notes has been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows by the appropriate government bond rates and credit margin applicable to the relevant term of the commercial note.
18. Fair Value Measurement continued
Basis of Determining Fair Value
The determination of fair values of financial and non financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at cost or amortised cost in the half year financial report are summarised as follows:
- The fair value of unlisted equity investments is determined based on an assessment of the underlying net assets, future maintainable earnings and any special circumstances pertaining to the particular investment;
- The fair value of unlisted investments in property funds has been determined by reference to the fair value of the underlying properties, which are valued by independent appraisers;
- The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance with generally accepted valuation techniques; these include the use of recent arm's length transactions, reference to other assets that are substantially the same, and discounted cash flow analysis;
- The fair value of derivative instruments comprises forward foreign exchange contracts, which are valued using forward rates at balance date, and interest rate swap contracts, which are measured at the present value of future cash flows estimated and discounted based on applicable yield curves derived from quoted interest rates and include counterparty risk adjustments; and
- The fair value of investment properties and resident loans is determined based on factors outlined in Note 11 'Investment Properties'.
Fair Value Measurements
The table below analyses financial and non financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:
- Level 1: The fair value is determined using the unadjusted quoted price for an identical asset or liability in an active market for identical assets or liabilities;
- Level 2: The fair value is calculated using predominantly observable market data other than unadjusted quoted prices for an identical asset or liability; and
- Level 3: The fair value is calculated using inputs that are not based on observable market data.
