Notes to the Financial Statements
Basis of Preparation
The half year consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report, which:
-
Has been prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting , and the Corporations Act 2001 ;
-
Complies with the recognition and measurement requirements of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and Interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board;
-
Should be read in conjunction with the 30 June 2019 annual financial report and any public announcements by the Trust during the half year in accordance with continuous disclosure obligations arising under the Corporations Act 2001 . The half year consolidated financial report does not contain all the information required for a full financial report;
-
Is presented in Australian dollars, with all values rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars unless otherwise indicated, in accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191; and
-
Is prepared under the historical cost basis except for the following assets, which are stated at their fair value: fair value through profit or loss investments.
The preparation of an interim report that complies with AASB 134 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions.

-
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised prospectively.
-
The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Trust and are consistent with those applied in the 30 June 2019 annual financial statements other than as stated below.

Section A: Performance
Profit After Tax (PAT) is the key measure used to assess the Trust’s performance. This section of the Financial Report focuses on disclosure that enhances a user’s understanding of PAT. The key line items of the Statement of Comprehensive Income along with their components provide detail behind the reported balances. The Trust’s performance will also impact the earnings per unit and distribution payout, therefore disclosure on these items has been included in this section. Further information and analysis on performance can be found in the Review and Results of Operations, which forms part of the Directors’ Report.

9. Issued Capital continued
a. Issuance of Securities
As at 31 December 2019, Lendlease Trust had 564,478,476 units on issue, equivalent to the number of Lendlease Corporation shares on issue. The issued units of the Trust and shares on issue by Lendlease Corporation Limited are stapled securities.
b. Security Accumulation Plans
The Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP) was reactivated in February 2011. The last date for receipt of an election notice for participation in the DRP is 2 March 2020. The issue price is the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of Lendlease Group 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.
c. Terms and Conditions
A stapled security represents one share in the Company stapled to one unit in the Trust.
Stapled securityholders have the right to receive declared dividends from the Company and distributions from the Trust and are entitled to one vote per stapled security at securityholders’ meetings. Ordinary stapled securityholders rank after all creditors in repayment of capital.
Section D: Other Notes
10. Fair Value Measurement
- a. Basis of Determining Fair Value
The fair value of unlisted equity investments, including investments in property funds, is determined based on an assessment of the underlying net assets which may include periodic independent and Directors’ valuations, future maintainable earnings, and any special circumstances pertaining to the particular investment.
b. Fair Value Measurements
The different levels of valuation method 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.
During the period there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value hierarchies.
11. Contingent Liabilities
The Consolidated Entity has identified the following contingent liabilities, being liabilities in respect of which there is the potential for a cash outflow in excess of any provision where the likelihood of payment is not considered probable or cannot be measured reliably at this time:
- In certain circumstances, the Trust, as part of the Group, 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. 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.

Auditor’s responsibility for the review of the Half-year Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Half-year Financial Report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the Half-year Financial Report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Trust’s financial position as at 31 December 2019 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As auditor of Lendlease Trust, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a Half-year Financial Report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
