MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
2
The Directors of Monadelphous Group Limited are pleased to report the Company’s financial results for the year ended 30 June 2021.
Revenue
Monadelphous recorded revenue for the year of $1,953 million[1] , an 18.3 per cent increase on the prior period. Demand for the Company’s services increased as the industry recovered from the delays and disruptions experienced during the initial phases of COVID-19, with customers seeking to capitalise on strong commodity prices, especially in the iron ore sector.
The Engineering Construction division reported revenue of $979.0 million, a 59 per cent increase on last year, reflecting the significant progress made during the year on the Company’s large portfolio of major construction contracts.
The Maintenance and Industrial Services division reported revenue of $976.9 million, down 6.9 per cent on the prior corresponding period. Demand for maintenance services within the iron ore sector was particularly strong, with reduced levels of activity experienced in the oil and gas sector.
Statutory revenue, which excludes Monadelphous’ share of revenue from joint ventures, was $1,753.7 million.
Earnings
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) was $108.7 million[2] , an improvement of 18 per cent on the prior period, with the industry regaining momentum following the initial impact of COVID-19.
Industry activity levels were very high during the year, particularly in Western Australia (WA), significantly increasing the demand for labour. Measures taken by state governments across the country to control the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, including interstate border restrictions, impacted the industry’s ability to source the required levels of skilled labour, further exacerbating the already stretched labour market. The resultant shortfall of available skilled resources was unprecedented and resulted in labour cost and productivity pressures across the industry.
In 2019, the Company received Notices of Amended Assessments (NOAAs) from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) for research and development tax incentives claimed in previous years which were determined to be ineligible, and consequently included a one-off provision of $6.5 million in the 2019 financial year. The NOAAs were issued by the ATO to give effect to adverse findings made by Innovation and Science Australia, which determined that the activities undertaken were ineligible for such incentives. Monadelphous applied for an internal review of these findings and, prior to issuing the NOAAs, the ATO advised the Company in writing that if the finding was subsequently set aside then the Commissioner would make further amendments to accord with such findings.
In December 2020, the Company was notified that, upon review, the original findings had been set aside in full, and the research and development activities conducted by the Company were in fact eligible activities. As a consequence, and based on the earlier advice provided by the ATO, the Company reversed the provision made in the 2019 financial year in its half-year results for the period ended 31 December 2020, and commenced the process to obtain a refund of the amounts paid to the ATO.
Subsequent to 30 June 2021, the Company has been informed by the ATO that the amended assessments required to facilitate the refund will not be issued. Monadelphous has lodged Notices of Objection with the ATO in respect of this matter. The Company has reinstated the provision, which was reversed earlier in the reporting period, until the matter is finalised.
Net profit after tax for the period was $47.1 million, an increase of 29 per cent on the prior period, representing earnings per share of 49.7 cents.

MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S REPORT (continued)

Dividend
Monadelphous’ Board of Directors declared a final dividend of 21 cents per share, taking the full year dividend to 45 cents per share fully franked. This equates to a payout ratio of approximately 90 per cent of reported net profit after tax.
The Monadelphous Group Limited Dividend Reinvestment Plan will apply to the final dividend.
Strong balance sheet
Monadelphous ended the year with a strong cash balance of $175.7 million.
The Company has experienced vastly different cash flow conversion rates over the last two financial years as a result of the initial impact of COVID-19 and the subsequent recovery therefrom, and the effects these events have had on the Company’s activity and working capital levels. The average cash flow conversion rate for the two financial years ending 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2021 is a solid 87 per cent.
The materially reduced operating activity levels experienced in the months leading up to 30 June 2020, at the initial height of the COVID-19 pandemic, significantly reduced the working capital requirements of the business at that time, and delivered an unusually high cash flow conversion rate of 151 per cent for the financial year ended 30 June 2020.
The improvement in the operating environment post 30 June 2020, and the consequent increase in working capital as the Company’s requirements returned to more normal levels, meant the cash flow conversion rate for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 was 35 per cent.
The strength of Monadelphous’ balance sheet provides the Company with the financial capacity required to effectively deal with the unpredictable and volatile effects of the pandemic and take advantage of any potential investment opportunities that may arise.
Settlement of Claim
During August 2020, Monadelphous was notified that Rio Tinto had filed a Writ of Summons in the Supreme Court of Western Australia against one of Monadelphous’ wholly owned subsidiaries in respect of a fire incident which occurred at Rio Tinto’s iron ore processing facility at Cape Lambert, WA, in January 2019.
In April 2021, the Company announced a confidential out-of-court settlement had been reached in this matter, with the settlement being covered by the proceeds of insurance.
Strategic Progress
Monadelphous made good progress on its markets and growth strategy during the year, despite the impacts and uncertainty caused by COVID-19. The Company was awarded approximately $950 million in new contracts and contract extensions across the resources, energy and infrastructure markets since the beginning of the financial year, including approximately $200 million subsequent to year end.
A large proportion of the Company’s new work was secured in the iron ore sector, with Monadelphous being awarded a significant number of sustaining capital work projects under panel agreements with both BHP and Rio Tinto, and in addition, being awarded work at Rio Tinto’s Gudai-Darri iron ore project.
Monadelphous’ Heavy Lift business was awarded a five-year crane services contract with Fortescue Metals Group, valued at approximately $150 million in total. The contract is for the provision of crane services supporting general repairs, maintenance and shutdown activities to Fortescue’s Solomon and Eliwana operations in the Pilbara region of WA.
During the year, Monadelphous was awarded its first contracts under the BHP Olympic Dam Asset Projects Framework Agreement, including the supply and construction of acid storage tanks and smelter campaign maintenance works at BHP’s Olympic Dam copper mine in Roxby Downs, South Australia (SA). The
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S REPORT (continued)

Company was also awarded a two-year extension to its existing maintenance services contract at Olympic Dam to provide civil, structural, mechanical, building maintenance and electrical services, and underground rail maintenance services.
The Company’s Chile based maintenance and construction services business, Buildtek, continued to perform strongly securing approximately $100 million of new work, which included several new contracts with Codelco, as well as with Minera Escondida which is majority owned by BHP. Subsequent to year end, Buildtek also secured a contract with Codelco for construction work associated with the development of a new underground section of the El Teniente copper mine in Rancagua. Monadelphous, through Buildtek, remains committed to strengthening its position in South America and is currently reviewing further growth opportunities.
Mondium, the Company’s engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) joint venture with Lycopodium, made good progress on its strategically important $400 million contract with Rio Tinto for the Western Turner Syncline Phase 2 Project, located in the Pilbara. The project continues to progress in line with expectations and is due to be completed in 2021.
Monadelphous continued to grow its rail portfolio, particularly on the east coast of Australia. In addition to providing track resurfacing services in New South Wales (NSW), the Company is now providing general rail maintenance services to multiple customers on the east coast and in the Pilbara, as well as underground rail maintenance services at BHP’s Olympic Dam mine site, SA.
Health and Safety
The Company’s Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR) improved by 39 per cent over the year to 2.26 incidents per million hours worked, which was a very pleasing result given the extraordinarily high levels of recruitment activity.
Throughout the period, Monadelphous implemented a number of key health and safety initiatives, including the introduction of a new Fatal Risk Standard and Life Saving Rule relating to the use of mobile plant and equipment, the release of the Company’s revised and updated supervisor safety leadership program and further training in relation to the Delivering the Safe Way behaviour framework.
The Company continued to maintain focus on the mental health and wellbeing of employees, implementing and participating in a range of initiatives relating to resilience development and improving mental health awareness.
People
The Company’s direct employee numbers peaked at over 7,600 employees during the period, its largest employee base since May 2013, and ended the year with a total workforce, including subcontractors, of 7,791 representing an increase of 37 per cent from 12 months prior.
High levels of industry activity in an already tight labour market, combined with COVID-19 related travel restrictions and border closures, placed significant pressure on the Company’s ability to attract and retain labour. During the period, Monadelphous undertook a number of initiatives to bolster its employee engagement and attraction processes to ensure it continues to retain and attract highly competent employees who are culturally aligned to the Company’s core values.
The continued retention and development of key talent is critical to Monadelphous’ ongoing growth and success. The Company strengthened its employee development programs with a focus on performance management and succession planning processes to ensure the pipeline of key talent is provided with challenging and rewarding career opportunities. Some of its highest achieving future leaders were also invited to participate in the Company’s Emerging Leaders and Group Mentoring programs during the year. The Company also performed a review of its benefit and reward programs to ensure that remuneration and employee benefits remain competitive.
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S REPORT (continued)

To support its commitment to attracting and retaining a diverse workforce and acknowledging the important role that workplace flexibility plays in improving employee wellbeing and job satisfaction, Monadelphous formalised its commitment to workplace flexibility with its Workplace Flexibility Policy, and implemented further improvements to its existing Parental Leave Policy.
The Company also progressed a number of strategic attraction initiatives during the period, including launching its updated employer branding programme, advancing the implementation of its new and improved recruitment, onboarding and talent management system, and reviewing its approach to alumni relations with the view to winning back departed talent. These initiatives focus on optimising the sourcing, selection and mobilisation of new talent across the business.
In the first half of the financial year, certain Monadelphous subsidiaries received wage subsidy support under the Australian Government’s JobKeeper scheme, totalling approximately $7 million. The JobKeeper scheme was implemented in the prior year to minimise the financial hardship to employees of businesses affected by the significant economic impact of COVID-19 and keep more Australians in jobs. The Company utilised the JobKeeper subsidy to pay employees placed on stand down, provide temporary uplifts for those eligible under the scheme, and to maintain, where possible, employment levels.
To show leadership support at the height of the pandemic, and in response to the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business and operations, the Board agreed to a 30 per cent salary and fee reduction for a six month period from May to October 2020, with the Executive and General Management teams agreeing to salary reductions of between 10 and 20 per cent for the same period.
Social Value
Monadelphous remains committed to making a positive contribution to the societies and communities in which it operates focusing its efforts in the key strategic areas of diversity, community support and education.
During the year, the Company continued to make significant progress on its reconciliation journey, underpinned by its Stretch Reconciliation Action Plan for 2017 – 2020. Monadelphous is proud to have once again reached Indigenous ‘Employment Parity’, achieving its goal of more than three per cent Indigenous employment.
In late 2018, Monadelphous became a signatory to the Employment Parity Initiative and committed to creating 200 new roles for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander jobseekers over a four-year period. Pleasingly, the Company has now employed more than 190 Indigenous jobseekers and has upskilled more than 50 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander members of its workforce.
Monadelphous was proud to launch a three-year Indigenous Employment Pathways Program, in partnership with Rio Tinto, showcasing our joint commitment to creating meaningful and sustainable employment for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Supported by dedicated coaching and mentoring, the Program aims to increase the number of skilled and tertiary qualified Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the resources industry. It will be open to prospective apprentices, trainees and tertiary cadets in a variety of fields including mechanical fitting, electrical, boiler making and welding, as well as traineeships in civil construction, crane operations, rigging, business administration and health, safety and environment.
Throughout the period the Company continued to provide cultural awareness training for its staff. The training aims to improve understanding and recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, histories, knowledge and rights, and demonstrating respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and their cultures.
During the year, the Company developed its fourth Reconciliation Action Plan 2021 – 2024, which will come into effect in the first half of the 2022 financial year. The plan, which was informed by consultation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees and the broader workforce, places a renewed emphasis on engagement with Indigenous businesses to increase opportunities for business spend, maintaining a minimum of three per cent Indigenous employment, and improving mentoring and support for existing and new
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S REPORT (continued)

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees. It demonstrates Monadelphous’ continued commitment to achieving reconciliation, and its genuine desire to make a positive contribution to Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community.
In keeping with its ongoing commitment to gender diversity and inclusion, the Company successfully retained more than 90 per cent of its key female talent and announced the appointment of its first female operational General Manager. To support sustainable and meaningful change, the Company rolled out a number of training initiatives across its workforce relating to unconscious bias and equal employment opportunities. In addition, Monadelphous employees presented at, and participated in, a number of events focused on positively challenging perceptions and promoting gender diversity, including the Women in Mining and Resources Leadership Summit and an in-house International Women’s Day panel discussion, viewed online by almost 1,000 Monadelphous employees.
During the year, the Company commenced the consultation process for its second Gender Diversity and Inclusion Plan 2021 – 2023, which will focus on ensuring a safe working environment for women, removing gender-based barriers, offering opportunities for women to enter trade roles, and extending targets for female candidates in the Company’s Vacation and Graduate programs. The Plan will be launched in the first half of the 2022 financial year.
Finally, the Company took part in almost 70 community events and initiatives during the course of the year. This included extending its partnership with the Graham (Polly) Farmer Foundation for another year, sponsoring the second Monadelphous CQUniversity Yallarm STEM Camp for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander high school students in Gladstone, Queensland, participating in the Welcome to Hedland community event in Port Hedland, WA, and supporting International Women’s Day across a number of its locations.
Productivity and Innovation
Monadelphous continues to focus on the implementation of proven technologies to improve productivity and deliver value for its customers. During the year, further progress was made on systems optimisation and the digitalisation of data capture and processing as an enabler of future initiatives focused on data analytics and automation.
In-field productivity remains a priority for Monadelphous, ensuring employees are equipped with the tools and technology to efficiently and safely execute their work. A number of technology trials were conducted during the period, including robotic process automation and asset tracking. Different hardware and software technologies were also evaluated to determine their compatibility with Monadelphous’ processes, and to assess suitability for widespread replication across the business. The use of drone technology increased for both videography and survey purposes, as well as equipment installation on customer sites.
Coupled with an internal focus on improving efficiency, Monadelphous recognises the benefits of open innovation activities that seek to drive innovation at an industry level. During the year, Monadelphous employees participated in several open innovation challenges hosted by customers. The initiatives provided the Company with greater insight into the operational challenges faced by customers and provided Monadelphous with an opportunity to build on its reputation as a collaborative partner with an innovative approach to problem solving.
Employee engagement with the Company’s internal collaboration platform, the Ideas Hub, increased during the period following the addition of new functionality.

OPERATIONAL ACTIVITY
Engineering Construction
The Engineering Construction division, which provides large-scale, multidisciplinary project management and construction services, reported revenue of $979.0 million[1] for the year, an increase of 59 per cent on the previous corresponding period. The result reflected the significant execution progress made during the year on the Company’s large portfolio of major construction contracts. Since the beginning of the financial year, Monadelphous secured new construction contracts within the resources, energy and infrastructure sectors totaling approximately $480 million.
A number of packages of work were secured under the BHP Western Australia Iron Ore (WAIO) Panel Agreement across various sites in the Pilbara including providing multidisciplinary brownfield modification works at Nelson Point and Finucane Island, structural, mechanical and electrical upgrades at the Newman Hub, and dewatering of surplus water and fabrication of the train loadout rectification works at Jimblebar mine site.
Monadelphous continued to provide construction services on its three packages of work at BHP’s South Flank Project. The structural, mechanical, piping and electrical and instrumentation work on the project’s inflow and outflow infrastructure is expected to be completed in the second half of 2021, with the Company having completed the installation and construction of the world’s largest rail mounted stockyard machines for thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions (Australia) during the period. The division also completed a number of other packages of work for BHP secured under the WAIO Panel Agreement.
Construction activities substantially progressed at Rio Tinto’s West Angelas Deposits C and D Project. The fully integrated project, which includes the supply and erection of fabricated products provided by SinoStruct, is expected to be completed in the second half of 2021. Work also continued on the structural, mechanical and piping package associated with the pyromet plant at MARBL Lithium Joint Venture’s Kemerton lithium hydroxide plant in the south-west region of WA.
Zenviron, the Company’s renewable energy joint venture, completed its works at the Dundonnell Wind Farm in regional Victoria for Vestas – Australian Wind Technology and significantly progressed works on the Crudine Ridge Wind Farm for CWP Renewables in regional NSW. During the period, Zenviron was awarded, and commenced, the balance of plant work on the Murra Warra Stage II Wind Farm for General Electric International in regional Victoria.
To better support its customers through the self-performance of selected fabrication and assembly work, SinoStruct established its own fabrication facility in Tianjin, China, during the period. It also secured several new contracts, delivering stand-alone packages of work for Origin Energy and Rio Tinto, in both Australia and Mongolia, as well as for major Monadelphous construction and maintenance projects, including for Newcrest Mining Limited in Papua New Guinea. The business also provided professional services in South America for the first time. Subsequent to year end, SinoStruct secured a new four-year agreement to supply wellsite equipment to Origin Energy. The packaged equipment is used to separate, meter and control coal seam gas for the Australia Pacific LNG plant located in Gladstone, Queensland. SinoStruct has been supplying packaged and modularised equipment to Origin Energy since 2015.
Mondium recommenced works at Talison Lithium’s Greenbushes mine in the south-west region of WA. Work on the tailings retreatment processing plant, which includes engineering, procurement and management of subcontractors, is expected to be completed by the end of 2021.
Monadelphous’ specialist Heavy Lift business entered into a strategic collaboration with global heavy lifting services company, Fagioli, during the period, with the objective of offering increased capacity and broadened capability within the Australian resources and energy markets. The joint venture has already been awarded its first contract, securing work with NMT International (Australia) to deliver lifting and haulage services at Fortescue’s Iron Bridge Magnetite Project in the Pilbara.

Following the decision to discontinue the Company’s water operations in New Zealand and significantly consolidate its position in the Australian market, the division continued to focus on the safe delivery of contracted works. In NSW, work was completed on the Wyee Backlog Sewer Scheme under the Hunter Water Corporation Complex Capital Works Design and Construct Panel program, while activities are continuing to be closed out on Sydney Water’s Network and Facilities Renewal Program. In Queensland, commissioning activities approached completion on the Kawana Sewerage Treatment Plant on the Sunshine Coast. In New Zealand, work on the Selwyn Pines solar drying project and the Kurow Duntroon Irrigation Scheme project are expected to be completed by the end of 2021.
Maintenance and Industrial Services
The Maintenance and Industrial Services division provides planning, management and execution of multidisciplinary maintenance services, sustaining capital works and turnarounds. The division recorded revenue of $976.9 million for the financial year, down 6.9 per cent on last year.
The result reflects the significant amount of work undertaken in the iron ore sector, with customers seeking to optimise production levels and capitalise on the strong iron ore price, as well as manage a maintenance deficit created during the initial stages of COVID-19. The Company experienced lower levels of demand for maintenance and turnaround services within the oil and gas sector, albeit improving steadily following the early impact of the pandemic.
In the oil and gas sector Monadelphous continued to provide maintenance services under its existing major onshore and offshore contracts, executing significant turnarounds during the period for both Woodside and INPEX. Planning commenced for major turnarounds scheduled across Woodside, Shell and INPEX-operated facilities over coming years.
During the period, the Company invested in specialist plant and equipment to support the growth of its industrial services and civil teams, as well as to further enhance its specialist oil and gas fabric maintenance capability. These investments will provide opportunities for growth across existing major, long-term contracts, as well as with new customers in the mining and oil and gas sectors.
The division has been awarded approximately $470 million in new contracts and contract extensions since the beginning of the financial year.
Major contract awards within the iron ore sector included three three-year master services contracts with Rio Tinto for the delivery of sustaining capital projects across various mine sites and port operations, as well as a number of contracts with BHP under the division’s existing WAIO Site Engineering Panel Framework Agreement. The division successfully completed a number of packages of work under these contracts during the period, supplying and installing the Jimblebar Transfer Station for BHP and completed the Car Dumper 3 Mega Shut at Nelson Point for BHP. A number of other major shutdowns were also completed under these contracts with both BHP and Rio Tinto.
Outside of the iron ore sector, Monadelphous was awarded a 12-month extension to its existing mechanical and electrical maintenance, shutdown and project services contract across BHP’s WA nickel operations, as well as a three-year contract with Rio Tinto to provide mechanical, electrical and access maintenance services for fixed plant shutdowns at its Gove operations in the Northern Territory.
In the east, the Company was awarded a contract to undertake a major dragline shutdown for BHP Mitsubishi Alliance at its Saraji Mine in Queensland, as well as a multidisciplinary contract with AGL Macquarie for the Bayswater Fly Ash Plant Refurbishment and Slurry Lines Replacement project near Muswellbrook, NSW.
In Chile, Buildtek was awarded a number of new contracts with Minera Escondida for the construction of a communications tower and modularised pump stations at the Escondida copper mine in Coloso, as well as for an upgrade to the conveyer system feeding the Filter Plant Warehouse at Coloso Port. Buildtek was also awarded a three-year contract with Codelco for the operations and maintenance of water infrastructure at the
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S REPORT (continued)

Chuquicamata underground mine in Calama as well as a further two new contracts, also with Codelco, for maintenance activities associated with the concentrator plant at El Teniente mine in Rancagua.
Pleasingly, leveraging Monadelphous’ experience within the liquefied natural gas (LNG) sector, Buildtek managed to secure its most significant LNG contract to date with GNL Quintero for the removal and replacement of five LNG discharge arms, three of which have been replaced to date.
Subsequent to year end, the Company announced the award of a number of new contracts, including a new three-year contract with Queensland Alumina Limited to continue to provide general mechanical maintenance services at its operations in Gladstone, and a 10-month extension to its existing contract with BHP Mitsubishi Alliance for the provision of dragline shutdown and maintenance services to its operations in the Browse Basin, both in Queensland. The Company also secured a number of new contracts in the iron ore sector in the Pilbara region of WA with BHP and Rio Tinto.
Other significant contract activity undertaken during the year included:
-
Maintenance, shutdown and sustaining capital works services for BHP’s Pilbara-based iron ore operations, WA;
-
Fixed plant maintenance and sustaining capital works services for Rio Tinto’s Pilbara-based iron ore operations, WA;
-
Maintenance and shutdown services for BHP’s Olympic Dam copper-uranium operation at Roxby Downs, SA;
-
Engineering, procurement and construction services on Oil Search’s oil and gas production and support facilities in the Highlands region of Papua New Guinea, in joint operation with Worley;
-
Minor capital project services at Newcrest Mining Limited’s Lihir Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea;
-
Maintenance and projects for Queensland Alumina Limited in Gladstone, Queensland;
-
Mechanical shutdown and tank maintenance and refurbishments for Newmont at Boddington, WA;
-
Rail maintenance services for Rio Tinto on its privately-owned rail network in the Pilbara, WA;
-
Shutdown and mechanical services for South32’s Worsley Alumina Refinery, WA;
-
National Services Agreement to complete maintenance, shutdown and sustaining capital works across APA Group’s assets;
-
Operation and maintenance of the coal handling facility at the Muja Power Station for Synergy in Collie, WA;
-
General mechanical and maintenance services for Incitec Pivot Limited in Gibson Island, Queensland; and
-
Maintenance and turnaround services in the Hunter Valley, NSW, for Glencore.
Markets and Outlook
The buoyant economic conditions forecast for the resources, energy and infrastructure sectors in coming years are expected to provide Monadelphous with a strong pipeline of opportunities.
In the resources sector, the outlook for the Australian iron ore industry remains positive, with ongoing significant levels of capital and operating expenditures to sustain high levels of production driving strong demand. Maintenance activity is expected to grow steadily on the back of aging assets and customers deferring discretionary work in prior periods.
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S REPORT (continued)

Strong commodity prices are also contributing to a positive outlook for developments in lithium, gold, copper and nickel. These markets will continue to present opportunities for Monadelphous in Australia, as well as its international operations in South America, Mongolia and Papua New Guinea.
After unprecedented demand disruption during the height of the pandemic, conditions in the oil and gas sector are improving with construction opportunities from the development of new LNG projects expected to emerge in the next one or two years.
Australia’s transition towards clean energy continues to gain momentum, with the portfolio of new wind farms coming to market in the next few years expected to provide opportunities for Zenviron, particularly as electrical grid access improves in NSW and Victoria. Rapid development of the hydrogen sector will also provide opportunities in the coming years.
The 2020/21 year has seen an extraordinary surge in construction activity after the initial impact of COVID19. With several large construction projects all completing in the next six months, full year 2021/22 revenues are likely to be lower than the previous year due to the timing of award and commencement of new major projects. Construction activity is forecast to be stronger in the 2022/23 financial year. The performance of the business will be dependent on the unpredictable and uncertain nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s operations.
The shortage of skilled labour will continue to be the major challenge for the Company’s operations in Australia. High levels of industry activity and the prolonged effects of COVID-19 international border restrictions limiting skilled migration are contributing factors. As highlighted earlier, the impacts are particularly acute for fly-in fly-out construction work in the resources and energy sectors where restrictions in the mobility of personnel due to unpredictable interstate border restrictions are impeding labour mobilisation and impacting operational productivity.
In response, Monadelphous will strategically target new work opportunities that best utilise the skills of its workforce, working collaboratively with customers in this regard. The Company will also focus on bolstering its employee attraction and retention practices, including performing a review of its variable remuneration practices to support the retention of key talent.
The Company will continue to assess market opportunities to achieve ongoing service and customer market diversification and support long-term sustainable growth.
Monadelphous’ reputation as a leader in its markets and as an employer of choice, together with its longstanding commitment to the delivery of safe, reliable and cost competitive service solutions, places it in a strong position to capitalise on the opportunities and deal with the challenges ahead.
In conclusion, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank our loyal and talented team for their truly herculean efforts. Our team has worked incredibly hard to deal with extraordinary challenges and unprecedented constraints imposed throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. I also extend my appreciation to our shareholders, customers and other stakeholders for their ongoing support during these difficult and unusual times.

Remuneration Philosophy
The performance of the Company depends predominantly and primarily upon the quality of its employees. To prosper, the Company must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled employees, which includes the directors and executives of the Company.
To this end, the Company embodies the principles of providing competitive rewards to attract and retain high calibre executives, and the linking of executive rewards to the creation of shareholder value.
Remuneration Committee
The Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for reviewing and recommending compensation arrangements for the directors and the executive management team.
The Remuneration Committee utilises remuneration survey data compiled by a recognised remuneration research organisation across a range of industries and geographic regions. The remuneration survey data is updated every 6 months and is used to assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of directors and the executive management team. This assessment is made with reference to relevant employment market conditions, with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team.
In recommending the remuneration levels of directors and executives, the Remuneration Committee takes into consideration the performance of the Group, divisions and business units as well as that of the individual.
Remuneration Structure
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and executive remuneration is separate and distinct.
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued)
19
REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued)
Executive remuneration
Objective
The Company aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Company so as to:
-
Reward executives for Group, divisional, business unit, and individual performance;
-
Align the interests of executives with those of shareholders; and
-
Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
All executives have non-fixed term employment contracts. The Company or executive may terminate the employment contract by providing 3 months written notice. The Company may terminate the contract at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred.
Structure
In determining the level and make-up of executive remuneration, the Remuneration Committee receives external survey data from a recognised remuneration research organisation and considers market levels for comparable executive roles when making its recommendations to the Board.
Executive remuneration consists of a fixed remuneration element and a variable remuneration element. The variable remuneration element can be provided under the Combined Reward Plan and/or the Employee Option Plan. From time to time, the Company reviews the structure and composition of variable remuneration to ensure it remains relevant and market competitive.

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued)
The proportion of fixed remuneration and variable remuneration is established for each member of the executive management team by the Remuneration Committee. Tables 1 and 2 on pages 25 and 26 of this report detail the proportion of fixed and variable remuneration for each of the executive directors and the senior executives of the Company.
Fixed remuneration
Objective
Monadelphous has a structured approach aimed at delivering fixed remuneration which is market competitive and rewards performance. The Company participates in a number of respected remuneration surveys from which it receives quarterly or six-monthly market and forecast data, and its remuneration system is designed to analyse detailed market and sector information at various levels.
The level of fixed remuneration is set to provide a base level of remuneration which is both appropriate to the position and competitive in the market, taking into account the individual’s skills, experience and qualifications.
Fixed remuneration levels are considered annually by the Remuneration Committee having reviewed an individual’s performance, alignment with the Company’s values and comparative remuneration levels in the market.
Structure
Executive team members are given the opportunity to receive their fixed remuneration in a variety of forms including base salary, superannuation and other benefits. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Company.
The fixed remuneration component of the executives of the Company is detailed in Tables 1 and 2 on pages 25 and 26 of this report.
Variable remuneration – Combined Reward Plan
Objective
The objective of the Combined Reward Plan (the CR Plan) is to recognise and reward the senior leaders of the business who positively contribute to the Company’s success, to align these rewards to the creation of shareholder wealth over time and to ensure the long term retention of the Company’s key talent.
The CR Plan combines short and long term incentive elements and rewards performance of both the Company and the employee. The equity component of the award is subject to service vesting conditions and disposal restrictions, encouraging employee retention and linking rewards to the creation of shareholder value through long term share ownership, with employee and shareholder alike benefitting from the long term growth in the share price.
Structure
Under the CR Plan, the Board has the discretion to make awards on an annual basis subject to Company and individual performance. Awards may be delivered in the form of a combination of cash and/or Performance Rights.
For the years ended 30 June 2020 and 2021, the Board determined that no award would be made under the CR Plan.
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued)
21
REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued)
Unvested performance rights remain subject to Monadelphous’ clawback policy. The Board has the discretion as to the circumstances that would result in a clawback of unvested performance rights. Factors resulting in material financial misstatement or underperformance, gross negligence, material lack of compliance, significant personal underperformance or behaviour that is likely to damage the Company’s reputation, would likely result in a clawback of unvested Performance Rights.
Performance Requirements
At the beginning of each financial year, the Board sets quantified, challenging, performance targets for the key performance areas of the business, taking into account the prevailing economic conditions for the year ahead, the Company’s strategic objectives and the key risk factors facing the business at that time. The targets are designed to focus the activities of the business on the key areas of performance that deliver long term sustainable growth for shareholders.
For the year ended 30 June 2021, the Managing Director had a target opportunity of 40% of fixed remuneration, and a maximum opportunity of 60%. Executives had a target opportunity of 30% of fixed remuneration, and a maximum opportunity of 45%. The target opportunity is awarded for achieving the objectives set by the Board at the beginning of each financial year. In order for the maximum opportunity to be awarded, performance must be a clear margin above the planned targets that were set.
At the end of each financial year, the Board assesses the Group’s net profit before tax performance against the budgeted target prior to any awards being considered under the CR Plan.
Once the Board has approved that an award can be made under the CR Plan, executive performance is assessed against the relevant targets set at the beginning of the financial year at a Group, division, business unit and individual level. This assessment is taken into account when determining the amount, if any, of the award to be made to each individual under the CR Plan, with annual awards being subject to approval by the Remuneration Committee and Board. The following key performance areas (KPAs) are considered in the assessment process, covering a number of financial and non-financial, Group and divisional measures of performance. The table below provides an overview of these KPAs and the weighting applied when assessing performance.

The Company regards the performance targets and the actual result as confidential and commercially sensitive in nature and if disclosed, would provide an unfair advantage to competitors.
The Board has reviewed the financial performance for the year ended 30 June 2021 and determined that no award would be made under the CR Plan.
Tables 1 and 2 on pages 25 and 26 of this report detail the proportion of fixed and variable remuneration for each of the executive directors and the senior executives of the Company for the financial years ended 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020.
The deferred performance right component of the awards relating to the years ended 30 June 2018 and 2019 are being amortised over three and four years respectively.

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued)
On 1 July 2020, 161,250 performance rights representing the first tranche of the award under the terms of the CR Plan for the year ended 30 June 2019 and the second tranche of the award under the terms of the CR Plan for the year ended 30 June 2018 vested and were exercised into Monadelphous Group Limited ordinary shares.
On 1 July 2021, 155,556 performance rights representing the second tranche of the award under the terms of the CR Plan for the year ended 30 June 2019 and the third tranche of the award under the terms of the CR Plan for the year ended 30 June 2018 vested and were exercised into Monadelphous Group Limited ordinary shares.
Variable remuneration – Employee Option Plan
Objective
The objective of the Employee Option Plan is to retain and reward key employees in a manner which aligns this element of remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth.
Structure
Monadelphous Group Limited Employee Option Plan
Equity-based grants to executives are at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee and Board, and may be delivered in the form of options. Should any issue of options be considered, the individual performance rating of each executive and the annual cost to the Company, on an individual basis, is taken into account when determining the amount, if any, of options granted.
On 24 November 2020, following shareholder approval at the Company’s Annual General Meeting, 300,000 options were issued to the Managing Director under the terms of the 2019 award of the Monadelphous Group Limited Employee Option Plan and subject to the Monadelphous Group Limited Employee Option Plan Rules.
On 4 December 2020, a further 560,000 options were issued to Key Management Personnel under the terms of the 2020 award of the Monadelphous Group Limited Employee Option Plan and subject to the Monadelphous Group Limited Employee Option Plan Rules.
In accordance with the terms of the offer and the rules of the Monadelphous Group Limited Employee Option Plan, the options can only be exercised in specified window periods (or at the discretion of the Board in particular circumstances) and are subject to the financial performance of the Company during the option vesting period (measurement period).
Earnings Per Share (EPS) growth is the means for measuring the performance of the Company over the measurement period. In respect of the 2019 award of options, in order for 100 per cent of the options to be exercisable EPS growth of 10 per cent per annum (compounded over the measurement period) is required. If EPS growth of 5 per cent per annum (compounded) is achieved, 50 per cent of the options will be exercisable and if EPS growth of between 5 per cent and 10 per cent per annum (compounded) is achieved, a pro-rata number of options will be exercisable.
In respect of the 2020 award of options, in order for 100 per cent of the options to be exercisable EPS growth of 8 per cent per annum (compounded over the measurement period) is required. If EPS growth of 4 per cent per annum (compounded) is achieved, 50 per cent of the options will be exercisable and if EPS growth of between 4 per cent and 8 per cent per annum (compounded) is achieved, a pro-rata number of options will be exercisable.
MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued)
23
REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued)
In subsequent window periods, performance will be re-tested and any options that were incapable of exercise in earlier window periods will become available for exercise to the extent that EPS performance has ‘caught up’ and the EPS growth hurdle is met over the longer measurement period. At the end of the final window period, any options remaining that are not capable of exercise, as a result of the performance hurdle not being achieved, will be forfeited. No options will be exercisable if an EPS growth rate is achieved that is less than 5 per cent per annum (compounded) for the 2019 award of options and 4 per cent per annum (compounded) for the 2020 award of options.
Subject to the satisfaction of the EPS performance hurdle, the 2020 award of options may be exercised in the following window periods:
-
Up to a maximum of 25% during the window period commencing 1 September 2022;
-
Up to a maximum of 25%, plus any options rolled over from the previous window period, during the window period commencing 1 September 2023; and
-
Up to a maximum of 50%, plus any options rolled over from the previous window period, during the window commencing 1 September 2024.
Subject to the satisfaction of the EPS performance hurdle, the 2019 award of options may be exercised in the following window periods:
-
Up to a maximum of 25% during the window period commencing 1 September 2021;
-
Up to a maximum of 25%, plus any options rolled over from the previous window period, during the window period commencing 1 September 2022; and
-
Up to a maximum of 50%, plus any options rolled over from the previous window period, during the window commencing 1 September 2023.
Hedging of equity awards
The Company prohibits executives from entering into arrangements to protect the value of unvested equitybased awards. The prohibition includes entering into contracts to hedge their exposure to options awarded as part of their remuneration package.
Non-executive director remuneration
Objective
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders.

The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. The most recent determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 19 November 2019 when shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of $850,000 in the ‘not to exceed sum’ paid to non-executive directors.
The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers the fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process.

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued)
Non-executive director fees consist of base fees and committee chair fees. The Deputy Chair/Lead Independent Non-executive Director also receives an additional fee. The payment of committee chair fees recognises the additional time commitment required by non-executive directors to chair the Board committees. Committee members do not receive a separate fee for sitting on a committee.
In March 2020, the Directors agreed to a 30 per cent salary and fee reduction for a six month period to support the cost reduction measures implemented by the Company in response to COVID-19.
The table below summarises Board and Committee fees payable to non-executive directors for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (inclusive of superannuation):

Non-executive directors have long been encouraged by the Board to hold shares in the Company (purchased by the director on-market). It is considered good governance for directors to have a stake in the Company.
Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. The non-executive directors do not receive retirement benefits, nor do they participate in any incentive programs.
The remuneration of non-executive directors for the year ending 30 June 2021 is detailed in Table 1 on page 25 of this report.
Employment contracts
All executives have non-fixed term employment contracts. The Company or executive may terminate the employment contract by providing 3 months written notice. The Company may terminate the contract at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred.

MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: GENERAL INFORMATION FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021
46
GENERAL INFORMATION
The consolidated financial report of Monadelphous Group Limited (the Group) and its subsidiaries for the year ended 30 June 2021 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of directors on 23 August 2021.
Monadelphous Group Limited is a for profit company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Group’s registered office is 59 Albany Highway, Victoria Park, Western Australia.
The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report.
Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which:
-
has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 , Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board as applicable to a for-profit entity.
-
has also been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial assets that have been measured at fair value.
-
is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000) unless otherwise stated under the option available to the Company under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 . The Company is an entity to which the legislative instrument applies.
-
adopts all new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the operations of the Group and effective for reporting periods beginning on or before 1 July 2020 (Refer to note 33).
-
does not early adopt any Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have been issued or amended but are not yet effective.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2021. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control.
A list of controlled entities (subsidiaries) at year end is contained in note 22. Consolidation of the subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control over the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a debit balance.

GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)
Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination shall be measured at fair value, which shall be calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of the assets transferred by the acquirer, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the equity issued by the acquirer. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency. Both the functional and presentation currencies of Monadelphous Group Limited, its Australian subsidiaries and its Papua New Guinea subsidiary (Monadelphous PNG Ltd) are Australian dollars (A$).
The functional currency is United States dollars (US$) for the Hong Kong subsidiary (Moway International Limited), the Singapore subsidiary (Monadelphous Singapore Pte Ltd) and the US subsidiaries (Monadelphous Inc. and Monadelphous Marcellus LLC). The functional currency of the Chinese subsidiary (Moway AustAsia Steel Structures Trading (Beijing) Company Limited) is Chinese Renminbi (RMB). The functional currency of the New Zealand subsidiary (Monadelphous Engineering NZ Pty Ltd) is New Zealand dollars (NZD). The functional currency of the Mongolian subsidiary (Monadelphous Mongolia LLC) is Mongolian Tugrik (MNT). The functional currency of the Chilean subsidiaries (Monadelphous Chile SpA, Buildtek SpA and MAQ Rent SpA) is Chilean Pesos (CLP).
Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rate ruling at the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction.
Translation of Group companies’ functional currency to presentation currency
As at the reporting date the assets and liabilities of the foreign operations are translated into the presentation currency of Monadelphous Group Limited at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date and the income statements are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the year. Exchange variations arising from the translation are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity.
Other accounting policies
Significant and other accounting policies that summarise the measurement basis used and are relevant to an understanding of the financial statements are provided throughout the notes to the financial statements or at note 33.

GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)
Key judgements and estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and may materially affect financial results or the financial position reported in future periods.
Management have identified the following critical accounting policies for which significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are made:
Accounting for contracts with customers
The Group accounts for construction contracts in accordance with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Accounting for construction contracts involves the continuous use of estimates based on a number of detailed assumptions. Construction contracts can span accounting periods, requiring estimates and assumptions to be updated on a regular basis.
Accounting estimates resulting from judgements in relation to individual projects may be materially different to actual results due to the size, scale and complexity of projects.
Revenue
Where performance obligations are satisfied over time, revenue is recognised in the consolidated income statement by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of each performance obligation.
For construction contracts, revenue is recognised using an output method based on work certified to date which the Group believes depicts the transfer of goods and services as it is based on completed work as agreed by our customers.
Fundamental to this calculation is a reliable estimate of the transaction price (total contract revenue). In determining the transaction price, variable consideration including claims and certain contract variations are only included to the extent it is highly probable that a significant reversal in revenue will not occur in the future. Where a variation in scope has been agreed with the customer but the corresponding change in the transaction price has not been agreed the variation is accounted for as variable consideration. The estimate of variable consideration is determined using the expected value approach taking into account the facts and circumstances of each individual contract and the historical experience of the Group and is reassessed throughout the life of the contract.
There are a number of factors considered in assessing variable consideration including status of negotiations with the customer, outcomes of previous negotiations and legal evidence that provides a basis for entitlement.
Forecast Costs
Forecast costs to complete construction contracts are regularly updated and are based on costs expected to be incurred when the related activity is undertaken. Key assumptions regarding costs to complete contracts include estimation of labour costs, technical costs, impact of delays and productivity.
Construction contracts may incur additional costs in excess of original cost estimates. Liability for such costs may rest with the customer if considered to be a change to the original scope of works. Any additional contractual obligations, including liquidated damages, are also assessed to the extent these are due and payable under the contract.

GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)
Key judgements and estimates (continued)
Forecast Costs (continued)
When it is considered probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the contract is considered onerous and the present obligation under the contract is recognised immediately as a provision.
Contract claims and disputes
Claims arising out of construction contracts may be made by or against the Group in the ordinary course of business, some of which may involve litigation or arbitration.
Estimates and assumptions regarding the likely outcome of these claims are made and recognised in the carrying value of contract assets and liabilities. In making these estimates and assumptions, legal opinions are obtained as appropriate.
The Directors do not consider the outcome of these claims to have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Group, however uncertainty remains until the final outcome is determined.
Taxation
Judgement is required in assessing whether deferred tax assets and certain deferred tax liabilities are recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unrecouped tax losses, capital losses and temporary differences, are recognised only where it is considered more likely than not that they will be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of sufficient future taxable profits.
Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. Judgements are also required about the application of income tax legislation. These judgements and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty, hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter expectations, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognised in the statement of financial position and the amount of other tax losses and temporary differences not yet recognised. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying amounts of recognised deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustments, resulting in a corresponding credit or charge to the income statement.

1. REVENUE AND OTHER INCOME (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Revenue from contracts with customers
The Group is in the business of providing construction and maintenance services. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group is expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Group has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements because it typically controls the goods and services before transferring them to the customer.
Construction services
Construction contracts are assessed to identify the performance obligations contained in the contract. The total transaction price is allocated to each individual performance obligation. Typically, the Group’s construction contracts contain a single performance obligation.
Work is performed on assets that are controlled by the customer or on assets that have no alternative use to the Group, with the Group having right to payment for performance to date. As performance obligations are satisfied over time, revenue is recognised over time using an output method based on work certified to date.
Customers are typically invoiced on a monthly basis and invoices are paid on normal commercial terms.
Services contracts
Contracts for performance of maintenance activities cover servicing of assets and involve various activities. These activities tend to be substantially the same with the same pattern of consumption by the customer. Where this is the case, which is the majority of the services contracts, these services are taken to be one performance obligation and the total transaction price is allocated to the performance obligation identified.
Performance obligations are fulfilled over time as the Group largely performs maintenance over the assets which the customer controls. Customers are typically invoiced monthly for an amount that is calculated on either a schedule of rates or a cost plus basis. For these contracts, the transaction price is determined as an estimate of this variable consideration.
Variable consideration
If the consideration in the contract includes a variable amount, the Group estimates the amount of the consideration to which it is entitled in exchange for transferring the goods and services to the customer. The Group includes some or all of this variable consideration in the transaction price only to the extent it is highly probable that a significant reversal of the cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
Certain contracts are subject to claims which are enforceable under the contract. If the claim does not result in any additional goods or services, the transaction price is updated and the claim accounted for as variable consideration.
Significant financing component
Using the practical expedient in AASB 15, the Group does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it expects, at contract inception, that the period between the transfer or the promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less.
Interest income
Revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method.

3. INCOME TAX (continued)
Research and Development tax incentives refund
In 2019, the Company received Notices of Amended Assessments (NOAAs) from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) for research and development tax incentives claimed in previous years which were determined to be ineligible, and consequently included a one-off provision of $6.5 million in the 2019 financial year. The NOAAs were issued by the ATO to give effect to adverse findings made by Innovation and Science Australia, which determined that the activities undertaken were ineligible for such incentives. Monadelphous applied for an internal review of these findings and, prior to issuing the NOAAs, the ATO advised the Company in writing that if the finding was subsequently set aside then the Commissioner would make further amendments to accord with such findings.
In December 2020, the Company was notified that, upon review, the original findings had been set aside in full, and the research and development activities conducted by the Company were in fact eligible activities. As a consequence, and based on the earlier advice provided by the ATO, the Company reversed the provision made in the 2019 financial year in its half-year results for the period ended 31 December 2020, and commenced the process to obtain a refund of the amounts paid to the ATO.
Subsequent to 30 June 2021, the Company has been informed by the ATO that the amended assessments required to facilitate the refund will not be issued. Monadelphous has lodged Notices of Objection with the ATO in respect of this matter. The Company has reinstated the provision, which was reversed earlier in the reporting period, until the matter is finalised.
Tax consolidation
Monadelphous Group Limited and its 100% owned Australian resident subsidiaries formed a tax consolidated group with effect from 1 July 2003. Members of the tax consolidated group have entered into a tax funding agreement. The head entity, Monadelphous Group Limited and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The Group has applied the Group allocation approach in determining the appropriate amount of current taxes and deferred taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Monadelphous Group Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group.
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group.
Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly-owned tax consolidated entities.

3. INCOME TAX (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Current taxes
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the current period’s taxable income. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred taxes
Deferred income tax is provided for using the full liability balance sheet approach.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists and they relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Calculation of earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends), divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:
-
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);
-
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
-
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares;
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

Recognition and measurement
Contract assets
A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Group transfers goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration. If the Group’s right to an amount of consideration is unconditional (other than the passage of time), the contract asset is classified as a receivable.
Refer to accounting policies of revenue from contracts with customers in note 1.
Project fulfilment costs
If project fulfilment costs are within the scope of AASB 15, the Group recognises these costs as an asset only if the costs relate directly to a contract, the costs generate or enhance resources and the costs are expected to be recovered.
These costs are amortised on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer of goods and services under the contract. If not capitalised, project fulfilment costs are expensed as incurred.

9. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Property, plant and equipment
All classes of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in the income statement as incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis on all classes of property, plant and equipment other than freehold land. The estimated useful life of buildings is 40 years; plant and equipment is between 3 and 20 years.
The assets’ residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.
An item of property, plant and equipment is de-recognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Right of use assets
The Group recognises lease assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Lease assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of lease assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill
We have performed an impairment assessment based on the policy below. No material impairment was noted.
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.
Where an indicator of impairment exists or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes a formal estimate of the recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value.
An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the income statement.

Impairment testing of the Group’s intangible assets and goodwill
Goodwill acquired through business combinations has been allocated to cash generating units (“CGU”) for impairment testing purposes. The CGUs are the entity Monadelphous Electrical & Instrumentation Pty Ltd, the Hunter Valley business unit, the entity Monadelphous Energy Services Pty Ltd, the entity Arc West Group Pty Ltd, the entity R.I.G. Installations (Newcastle) Pty Ltd and the entity Buildtek SpA. None of these CGUs are material to the Group. The recoverable amount of each CGU has been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five year period and applying a pre-tax discount rate to the cash flow projections in the range of 12% to 15%. No reasonably possible changes in key assumptions would result in the carrying amount of the individual CGUs exceeding their recoverable amount.
Recognition and measurement
Goodwill
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost being the excess of the consideration over the fair value of the Group’s identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination, is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the Group are assigned to those units or groups of units.
Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the CGU (group of CGUs) to which the goodwill relates. If the recoverable amount of the CGU (group of CGUs) is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are not subsequently reversed.

10. INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL (continued)
Recognition and measurement (continued)
Intangible assets
The cost of an intangible asset acquired in a business combination is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be finite. The intangible assets are amortised over their useful life. Intangible assets are tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for the intangible assets is reviewed at least each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the assets are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, which is a change in accounting estimate. The amortisation expense on intangible assets is recognised in the income statement in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset.

The Group’s share of insurance bond guarantees issued by Joint Ventures at 30 June 2021 was $52,716,995 (2020: $92,033,477).
Joint ventures had no capital commitments at 30 June 2021 (2020: $nil).
Recognition and measurement
A joint venture is a type of arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have the rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary to determine control over subsidiaries.
The Group’s investments in its joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognised at cost. The carrying value of the investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the joint venture since the acquisition date. The income statement reflects the Group’s share of the results of the joint venture.

Recognition and measurement
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost and are not discounted due to their short term nature. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured, non-interest bearing and are usually paid within 30 to 45 days of recognition.
Sundry creditors and accruals are non-interest bearing and have terms of 7 to 30 days.
Contract liability
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract.

Interest bearing loans and borrowings are initially recognised at fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has a right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
Gains or losses are recognised in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognised.

Terms and conditions
Hire purchase agreements have an average term of three years. The average discount rate implicit in the hire purchase liability is 2.9% (2020: 3.1%).
Other lease liabilities have an average term of 1.3 years. The average discount rate implicit in the other lease liability is 3.8% (2020: 3.9%).
The maturity analysis of lease liabilities is set out in note 24.
Recognition and measurement
The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Group as a lessee
The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and lease assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Unless the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognised lease assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
-
Property 1 to 8 years
-
- Plant and equipment 1 to 10 years
If ownership of leases assets transfers to the Group at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.
Lease assets are subject to impairment.

15. LEASE LIABILITIES (continued)
Recognition and measurement (continued)
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including insubstance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption for those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option. It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of plant and equipment that are considered of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straightline basis over the lease term.
Significant judgement in determining the lease term of contracts with renewal options
The Group determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.
The Group has the option, under some of its leases to lease the assets for additional terms of one to five years. The Group applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the option to renew and considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise the renewal. After the commencement date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise (or not to exercise) the option to renew.

Recognition and measurement
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure to settle the present obligation at the reporting date using a discounted cash flow methodology. The risks specific to the provision are factored into the cash flows and as such a risk-free government bond rate relevant to the expected life of the provision is used as a discount rate. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
Employee benefits
Employee benefits includes liabilities for wages and salaries, rostered days off, vesting sick leave, project incentives and project redundancies. It is customary within the engineering and construction industry for incentive payments and redundancies to be paid to employees at the completion of a project. The provision has been created to cover the expected costs associated with these statutory and project employee benefits.

16. PROVISIONS (continued)
Recognition and measurement (continued)
Employee benefits (continued)
Liabilities for short term benefits expected to be wholly settled within twelve months of the reporting date are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Expenses for non-vesting sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable.
The liability for long term benefits is recognised and measured as the present value of the expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on high quality corporate bonds, which have terms to maturity approximating the estimated future cash outflows.
Workers’ compensation
It is customary for all entities within the engineering and construction industry to be covered by workers’ compensation insurance. Payments under these policies are calculated differently depending on which state of Australia the entity is operating in. Premiums are generally calculated based on actual wages paid and claims experience. Wages are estimated at the beginning of each reporting period. Final payments are made when each policy is closed out based on the difference between actual wages and the original estimated amount. The amount of each payment varies depending on the number of incidents recorded during each period and the severity thereof. The policies are closed out within a five year period through negotiation with the relevant insurance company. The provision has been created to cover the expected costs associated with closing out each insurance policy and is adjusted accordingly based on the actual payroll incurred and the severity of incidents that have occurred during each period.
17. OTHER FINANCIAL LIABILITY
In November 2019, Monadelphous Group Limited acquired 75% of Chile-based construction and maintenance services contractor, Buildtek SpA (“Buildtek”) and plant and equipment hire company, MAQ Rent SpA (“MAQ Rent”).
At the date of acquisition, the Group obtained an option to acquire the remaining 25% of the shares on issue of Buildtek and MAQ Rent in three years’ time. Similarly, the existing holders of the remaining 25% have the option to require the Group to purchase the remaining shares on the same terms and conditions as the option held by the Group.
In relation to the option held by the minority shareholders, the Group has made an accounting policy choice to reclassify the non-controlling interest in these controlled entities as a liability at each reporting date until such time as the option is exercised or expires. The financial liability, representing the minority put and call option, has been recognised on the balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to equity. Subsequent to initial recognition, changes to the carrying amount of the financial liability are also recognised directly in equity.
The financial liability was initially measured at fair value, being the present value of the estimated amount payable in three years’ time. The amount payable will be determined based on a multiple of the average annual earnings for the three years ending 31 December 2022.
At 30 June 2021, the financial liability associated with the option held by the minority shareholders was $10,150,590 (2020: $4,480,811).

18. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Capital is managed by the Group’s Chief Financial Officer in conjunction with the Group’s Finance and Accounting department. Management continually monitor the Group’s net cash/debt position and the gearing levels to ensure efficiency and compliance with the Group’s banking facility covenants, including the gearing ratio, operating leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio. At 30 June 2021, the Group is in a net cash position of $135,781,000 (2020: $162,443,000 ) and has a debt to equity ratio of 10.1% (2020: 11.9%) which is within the Group’s net cash and debt to equity target levels.
During the year ended 30 June 2021, management paid dividends of $35,027,000. The policy is to payout dividends of 80% to 100% of annual net profit after tax, subject to the working capital requirements of the business, potential investment opportunities and business and economic conditions generally.
The capital of the Company is considered to be contributed equity.

Impairment
There were no assets employed in the joint operations during the year ended 30 June 2021 (2020: $nil).
Recognition and measurement
Joint arrangements are arrangements of which two or more parties have joint control. Joint control is the contractual agreed sharing of control of the arrangement which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Joint arrangements are classified as either a joint operation or joint venture, based on the rights and obligations arising from the contractual obligations between the parties to the arrangement.
To the extent the joint arrangement provides the Group with rights to the individual assets and obligations arising from the joint arrangement, the arrangement is classified as a joint operation and as such, the Group recognises its:
-
Assets, including its share of any assets held jointly;
-
Liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly;
-
Revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; and
-
Expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.
To the extent the joint arrangement provides the Group with rights to the net assets of the arrangement, the investment is classified as a joint venture and accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the cost of the investment is adjusted by the post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of the net assets of the venture.

24. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, loans, leases and hire purchase contracts, cash and short-term deposits.
The Group is exposed to financial risks which arise directly from its operations. The Group has policies and measures in place to manage financial risks encountered by the business.
Primary responsibility for the identification of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board determines policies for the management of financial risks. It is the responsibility of the Chief Financial Officer and senior management to implement the policies set by the Board and for the constant day to day management of the Group’s financial risks. The Board reviews these policies on a regular basis to ensure that they continue to address the risks faced by the Group.
The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s policy to minimise risk from fluctuations in interest rates is to utilise fixed interest rates in its loans, leases and hire purchase contracts. Cash and short term deposits are exposed to floating interest rate risks. The Group manages its foreign currency risk arising from significant supplier contracts in foreign currencies by holding foreign currency or taking out forward exchange contracts. Analysis is performed on a customer’s credit rating prior to signing contracts and analysis is performed regularly of credit exposures and aged debt to manage credit and liquidity risk.
The policies in place for managing the financial risks encountered by the Group are summarised below.
Risk exposures and responses
Interest rate risk
The Group’s exposure to variable interest rates is as follows:
| The Group’s exposure to variable interest rates is as follows: | |
|---|---|
| Notes Financial assets/liabilities Cash and cash equivalents 5 Loan – secured Net exposure |
2021 $’000 2020 $’000 175,708 208,292 (900) (2,100) |
| 174,808 206,192 |
The Group utilises a number of financial institutions to obtain the best interest rate possible and to manage its risk. The Group does not enter into interest rate hedges.
At 30 June 2021, reasonably possible movements in variable interest rates, based on a review of historical movements and forward rate curves for forward rates would not have had a material impact on the Group.
Foreign currency risk
As a result of operations in the USA, Papua New Guinea, China, Mongolia, New Zealand and Chile the Group’s statement of financial position can be affected by movements in the US$/A$, PGK/A$, RMB/A$, MNT/A$, NZ$/A$ and CLP/A$ exchange rates.
The Group also has transactional currency exposures. Such exposure arises from sales or purchases by an operating entity in currencies other than the functional currency. Where possible, Monadelphous does not take on foreign exchange risk. At 30 June 2021, the Group had no forward contracts.

The Group also mitigates its exposure to foreign currency risk by minimising excess foreign currency balances in overseas jurisdictions not required for working capital.
At 30 June 2021, the Group had the following exposure to foreign currency:
| Year ended 30 June 2021 Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Net Exposure Year ended 30 June 2020 Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Net Exposure |

At 30 June 2021, reasonably possible movements in PGK foreign exchange rates, based on a review of historical movements, would not have had a material impact on the Group.
At 30 June 2021, if the USD foreign exchange rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post tax profit and equity would have been affected as follows:

24. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
Risk exposures and responses (continued)
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is its cash, trade and other receivables and contract assets representing $554,041,000 at 30 June 2021 (2020: $498,232,000).
Following the adoption of AASB 9, the Group considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of a financial asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout the reporting period.
Except for trade receivables, contract assets and other short-term receivables (see below), expected credit losses (ECL’s) are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12 months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).
To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. In making this assessment, the Group considers information that is reasonable and supportable, including historical experience and forward-looking information. Forward-looking information considered includes consideration of external sources of economic information. In particular, the Group takes into account the counterparties external credit rating (as far as available), actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty and macroeconomic indicators when assessing significant movements in credit risk.
In the prior period, impairment losses were recognised when there was objective evidence of impairment.
Trade receivables and contract assets
The Group trades with recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. Publicly available credit information from recognised providers is utilised for this purpose where available.
In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant.
The Group minimises concentrations of credit risk in relation to accounts receivable and contract assets by undertaking transactions with a number of customers within the resources, energy and infrastructure industry sector. There are multiple contracts with our significant customers, across a number of their subsidiaries, divisions within those subsidiaries and locations.
For transactions that are not denominated in the functional currency of the relevant operating unit, the Group does not offer credit terms without the specific approval of the Chairman, Managing Director or Chief Financial Officer.
Since the Group trades with recognised third parties, there is no requirement for collateral.

24. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
Risk exposures and responses (continued)
Credit risk (continued)
The Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs for trade receivables and contract assets. Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on days past due ageing for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns. The calculation reflects the probabilityweighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
A receivable is considered to be credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows have occurred. Evidence that a receivable is credit-impaired includes observable data about significant financial difficulty of the debtor or a breach of contract, such as a default or past due event.
Set out below is the information about the credit risk exposure on the Group’s trade receivables and contract assets, for which lifetime expected credit losses are recognised, using a provision matrix:

With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Group, which comprises cash and cash equivalents, the Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The Group minimises its exposure to credit risk for cash and cash equivalents, by investing funds with counter parties rated A+ or higher by Standard & Poor’s where possible. Term deposits typically have an original maturity of three months or less and other bank deposits are on call. These financial assets are considered to have low credit risk.
Write off policy
The Group writes off a financial asset when there is information indicating that the counterparty is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, e.g. when the counterparty has been placed under liquidation or entered into bankruptcy proceedings. Financial assets written off may still be subject to enforcement activities under the Group’s recovery procedures, taking into account legal advice where appropriate. Any recoveries made are recognised in profit or loss.

Risk exposures and responses (continued)
Liquidity risk (continued)
Interest bearing liabilities with fixed interest rates: The fair value includes the value of contracted cash flows, discounted at market rates.
Cash and cash equivalent: The carrying amount approximates fair value because of their short-term maturity.
Receivables and payables: The carrying amount approximates fair value due to short term maturity.
Listed equity investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The carrying amount is equal to the fair value calculated using quoted prices in active markets (level 1 – see below).
The Group uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise:
Level 1: The fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets. Level 2: The fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). Level 3: The fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
There were no material financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value at 30 June 2021 or 30 June 2020.

Options
In November 2020, 300,000 options, which had been offered to the Company’s Managing Director in October 2019, were approved to be granted at the Company’s Annual General Meeting at an exercise price of $14.84. The exercise price of the options granted under the Employee Option Plan was calculated as the average closing market price of the shares for the five trading days prior to the invitation date to apply for the options of 14 October 2019. The fair value of each option issued during the year was estimated on the date of grant using a Binomial option-pricing model.
In November 2020, a total of 2,950,000 options were granted by Monadelphous Group Limited under the Employee Option Plan at an exercise price of $9.30. A further 300,000 options have been offered to the Company’s Managing Director, with the issue of these options being subject to shareholder approval. The exercise price of the options granted under the Employee Option Plan was calculated as the average closing market price of the shares for the five trading days prior to the invitation date to apply for the options of 5 November 2020. The fair value of each option issued during the year was estimated on the date of grant using a Binomial option-pricing model.
The following weighted average assumptions were used for grants during the year:
| Dividend | yield | 3.66% |
|---|---|---|
| Volatility | 40.0% | |
| Risk-free | interest rate | 0.09% - 0.16% |
| Expected | life of option | 25% - 2 years 25% - 3 years |
| 50% - 4 years |
The dividend yield reflects an analysis of past dividends and future dividend expectations. The expected life of the options is based on historical data and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which also may not necessarily be the actual outcome. No other features of options granted were incorporated into the measurement of fair value.

Recognition and measurement
The Group provides benefits to employees (including Key Management Personnel) of the Group in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions). These benefits are provided through the Monadelphous Group Limited Combined Reward Plan and the Monadelphous Group Limited Employee Option Plan.
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date on which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer. In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Monadelphous Group Limited (market conditions), if applicable. The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period), ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting date).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the Group, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The income statement charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.

28. SHARE BASED PAYMENT EXPENSE (continued)
Recognition and measurement (continued)
Until an award has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent and will be adjusted if more or fewer awards vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any award subject to market condition is considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are satisfied.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

31. OPERATING SEGMENTS
Revenue is derived by the consolidated entity from the provision of engineering services to the resources, energy and infrastructure industry sector. For the year ended 30 June 2021, the Engineering Construction division contributed revenue of $979.0 million (2020: $615.9 million) and the Maintenance and Industrial Services division contributed revenue of $976.9 million (2020: $1,049.8 million). Included in these amounts is $2.8 million (2020: $14.9 million) of inter-entity revenue and $199.4 million (2020: $163.4 million) of revenue of joint ventures, which is eliminated on consolidation. The operating divisions are exposed to similar risks and rewards from operations, and are only segmented to facilitate appropriate management structures.
The directors believe that the aggregation of the operating divisions is appropriate for segment reporting purposes as they:
-
have similar economic characteristics in that they have similar gross margins;
-
perform similar services for the same industry sector;
-
have similar operational business processes;
-
provide a diversified range of similar engineering services to a large number of common clients;
-
utilise a centralised pool of engineering assets and shared services in their service delivery models, and the services provided to customers allow for the effective migration of employees between divisions; and
-
operate predominately in one geographical area, namely Australia.
Accordingly, all services divisions have been aggregated to form one segment.
The Group has a number of customers to which it provides services. The largest customer represented 36% (2020: 28%) of the Group’s revenue. One other customer individually contributed 11% of the Group’s revenue. There are multiple contracts with these customers, across a number of their subsidiaries, divisions within those subsidiaries and locations.

MONADELPHOUS GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: OTHER FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

33. OTHER ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Other accounting policies
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through OCI, and fair value through profit or loss.
With the exception of trade receivables, that do not have a significant financing component, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at the transaction price determined under AASB 15.
Financial assets at amortised cost
The Group measures financial assets at amortised cost where the objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.
Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.
The Group’s financial assets at amortised cost includes trade receivables.
Financial assets at fair value
For financial assets at fair value, gains and losses will either be reported in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity instruments at fair value through OCI.
Gains and losses on financial assets designated at fair value through OCI are not recycled to profit or loss. Dividends are recognised as other income in the statement of profit or loss when the right of payment has been established. Equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI are not subject to impairment assessment.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognises an allowance for ECLs for trade receivables, contract assets and other debt financial assets not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contracted cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate.
For trade receivables and contract assets, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating expected credit losses and recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime expected credit losses at each reporting date. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

33. OTHER ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (continued)
Other accounting policies (continued)
Definition of default
The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due or when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full.
Write off policy
A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.
Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
-
when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
-
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
New and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations
Monadelphous Group Limited and its subsidiaries (‘the Group’) has adopted all new and amended Australian Standards and Interpretations mandatory for reporting periods beginning on or before 1 July 2020.

| AASB 2020-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Interest Rate Benchmark |
The objective of the amendments is to minimise financial reporting consequences of a change in benchmark interest rates that Australian Accounting Standards may otherwise require, such as the derecognition or remeasurement of financial instruments, and the discontinuation of hedge accounting. Provided that the interest rate will be substantially similar before and after the replacement, the amendments: ► Require changes to future cash flows that are directly required by the IBOR reform to be treated as if they were changes to a floating interest rate. Applying this expedient would not affect the carrying amount of the financial instrument. It also relieves entities of the need to assess whether modification or derecognition accounting applies under AASB 9 and AASB 139. ► Require changes to lease payments that are directly required by the IBOR reform to be accounted for as a remeasurement of lease liability using the original discount rate with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset. This expedient exempts entities from remeasuring the lease liability using a new discount rate under AASB 16. |

| AASB 2020-3 Amendments to AASB 3 – Reference to the Conceptual Framework |
The IASB’s assessment of applying the revised definitions of assets and liabilities in the Conceptual Framework to business combinations showed that the problem of day 2 gains or losses would be significant only for liabilities that an acquirer accounts for after the acquisition date by applying IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets or IFRIC 21 Levies. The Board updated IFRS 3 in May 2020 for the revised definitions of an asset and a liability and excluded the application of the Conceptual Framework to liabilities and contingent liabilities within the scope of IAS 37 or IFRIC 21. |
1 January 2022 | 1 July 2022 |
| AASB 2020-3 Amendments to AASB 137 – Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract |
AASB 137 defines an onerous contract as a contract in which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it. Unavoidable cost is the lower of the cost of fulfilling the contract and any compensation or penalties arising from failure to fulfil it. AASB 137 does not specify which costs to include in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract. Consequently, AASB 137 was amended to clarify that when assessing whether a contract is onerous, the cost of fulfilling the contract comprises all costs that relate directly to the contract, which includes both the: ► Incremental costs of fulfilling that contract (e.g., materials and labour); and ► An allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts (e.g., depreciation of property, plant and equipment) An entity shall apply these amendments to contracts for which it has not yet fulfilled all its obligations at the beginning of the annual reporting period in which it first applies the amendments (the date of initial application). Comparative information is not restated. Instead, the cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments is recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings or other component of equity, as appropriate, at the date of initial application. |

| AASB 2020-3 Amendments to AASB 116 – Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use |
Under AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment, net proceeds from selling items produced while constructing an item of property, plant and equipment are deducted from the cost of the asset. The IASB’s research indicated practical diversity in interpreting this requirement. As a result, AASB 116 was amended to prohibit an entity from deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment, the proceeds from selling items produced before that asset is available for use. An entity is also required to measure production costs of the sold items by applying AASB 112 Inventories. Proceeds from selling any such items, and the cost of those items, are recognised in profit or loss in accordance with applicable standards. These amendments are applied retrospectively, but only to items of property, plant and equipment that are ‘ready to use’ on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the amendments — ‘ready to use’ meaning the asset is in the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. |

| AASB 2014-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture |
The amendments clarify that a full gain or loss is recognised when a transfer to an associate or joint venture involves a business as defined in AASB 3 Business Combinations. Any gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of assets that does not constitute a business, however, is recognised only to the extent of unrelated investors’ interests in the associate or joint venture |

| AASB 2020-1 Amendments to AASs – Classification of Liabilities as current or non-current |
A liability is classified as current if the entity has no right at the end of the reporting period to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period. The AASB recently issued amendments to AASB 101 to clarify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non- current. Specifically: ► The amendments specify that the conditions which exist at the end of the reporting period are those which will be used to determine if a right to defer settlement of a liability exists. ► Management intention or expectation does not affect classification of liabilities. ► In cases where an instrument with a conversion option is classified as a liability, the transfer of equity instruments would constitute settlement of the liability for the purpose of classifying it as current or non-current. |
