Mader Group Limited results are reported under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The Company discloses certain non-IFRS measures that are not prepared in accordance with IFRS and therefore are considered non-IFRS financial measures. The non-IFRS measures should only be considered in addition to and not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

  1. Public company costs include the directors’ estimate of incremental annual costs that the Mader Group will incur as a public listed company:

  2. These incremental costs include share registry fees, Executive Director, Non Executive Director remuneration, Directors’ and Officers’ insurance premiums, additional audit and legal fees, listing fees, investor relations costs as well as annual general meeting and annual report costs;

  3. For FY2019, no Public Company costs were incurred. Therefore, as a normalisation adjustment to make FY2019 comparable with FY2020, $0.23 million ($0.16 million tax effected) has been included as an adjustment;

  4. For FY2020, the net profit already includes Public Company Costs, therefore no adjustment is required.

  5. One-off Offer costs incurred by Mader Group of $0.86 million ($0.60 million tax effected).

  6. Income tax effect - An adjustment has been made to reflect the tax impact of the adjustments based on the Australian statutory corporate tax rate of 30%.
