1.4 KEY INVESTMENT RISKS
The business, assets and operations of the Company are subject to certain risk factors that have the potential to influence the operating and financial performance of the Company in the future. These risks can impact on the value of an investment in the Shares of our Company.
The Board aims to manage these risks by carefully planning its activities and implementing risk control measures. Some of the risks are, however, highly unpredictable and the extent to which they can effectively be managed is limited.
Before applying for Shares in Mustera, you should consider whether these Shares are a suitable investment for you. You should be aware that there are risks associated with an investment in Mustera’s Shares generally. In particular, these risks arise from the nature of Mustera’s Shares and the associated terms of the Issue as well as risks associated with Mustera’s business. These risks may affect the ability of Mustera to fulfil its obligations, and affect the value of Mustera shares.
PROSPECTUS ǀ MUSTERA PROPERTY GROUP LTD

INVESTMENT OVERVIEW
The risk factors can be broadly classified as including:
-
risks associated with an investment in Mustera;
-
risks specific to Mustera; and
-
risks associated with the general global economic environment. Some of the principle risks include:
Development risk
Part of Mustera’s business is to identify, analyse and invest in development projects which have a number of inherent risks in addition to those associated with real estate generally, including:
-
a risk that appropriate planning consents are not obtained or, if obtained, are not properly adhered to;
-
a risk that development costs escalate beyond those originally anticipated;
-
a risk of project delays due to factors beyond the control of Mustera;
-
a risk that any property development manager and/or subcontractor appointed to implement a development project does not perform their role to a satisfactory standard or acts or fails to act in breach of contract;
-
a risk that competing property development projects adversely affect the overall return achieved by a property development project undertaken by Mustera because they provide competitive alternatives for potential purchasers and potential lessees;
-
a risk that warranty claims arise subsequent to a development that the Company may be liable for;
-
a risk that the property does not sell; and
-
a risk that market conditions change during any development.
Although some of these risks can be mitigated, it is not possible to remove entirely the risks inherent in project development.
Property valuation and rental income risks
The value of, and returns from, properties owned by the Company may fluctuate depending on property market conditions. Demand for property may change as investor preferences for particular sectors and asset classes change over time and can be influenced by general economic factors such as interest rates and share market cycles. Property values may fall, and they may fall quickly, if the underlying assumptions on which the property valuations are based differ in the future.
Earnings made by Mustera from investment properties will be dependent upon the rents received from those properties, occupancy levels and the level of non-recoverable outgoings. Rental income may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including property market conditions, competition from other property owners, the financial circumstances of tenants.
Funding risks
Mustera will rely on external funding sources (debt and equity funding) for its property portfolio. Mustera's ability to raise capital from either debt or equity markets on favourable terms for future corporate activity cannot be guaranteed and is dependent on a number of factors, including the general economic climate, the state of debt and equity capital markets, and the performance, reputation and financial strength of Mustera.
In relation to debt funding of the development projects, Mustera will be required to achieve a minimum level of committed sales as one of the conditions of the funding. In the event such a condition is not satisfied, Mustera may not be able to source debt funding and the value in the development project may be impaired.
Please refer to Section 5 for further details of risk factors associated with an investment in the Company. These risks should not be taken as an exhaustive list of the risks of investing in Mustera.

INVESTMENT OVERVIEW
1.6 DIVIDEND POLICY
The focus of Mustera’s investment strategy is to deliver capital growth to Shareholders. Therefore, it is the current expectation of the Board that Mustera is unlikely to declare and pay any dividends in the short term. It is the Board’s current intention that any excess capital generated will be reinvested into future investment opportunities.
The payment and amount of any potential future dividends declared by Mustera are subject to the discretion of the Board and will depend upon, among other things, the Company’s earnings, financial position, tax position and capital requirements.
1.7 PURPOSE OF THE OFFER AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The Offer is being conducted to:
-
position Mustera to pursue property investment and development opportunities;
-
achieve a listing of the Company on the ASX to broaden the Company’s shareholder base and provide a liquid market for its Shares;
-
improve the Company’s future access to capital markets;
-
provide additional working capital to the Company; and
-
fund the costs associated with the Offer.
Refer to Sections 2.4 and 2.5 for further details.
1.8 FORECASTS
The Directors have considered the matters detailed in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.
The Directors consequently believe that, given these inherent uncertainties, it is not possible to include a reliable forecast in this Prospectus.
Refer to Section 3 for further information in respect to the Company’s proposed activities.
1.9 ENQUIRIES
All questions relating to this Prospectus should be directed to the Company by telephone on +61 (08) 9386 7069 between 8.30am and 5.00pm (WST) on business days.

4.2 DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES
Lot 803 Foundry Road, Midland WA
Railway Square Precinct
Lot 803 Foundry Road, Midland forms part of the Railway Square Precinct within the Midland redevelopment area. This land is under the planning and development control of the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (MRA), a Western Australian government agency specifically established to assist with the revitalisation of Midland. The MRA is the determining authority for development applications.
The Railway Square Precinct is situated south of the rail line and traditional town centre of Midland. It is bounded by Yelverton Drive to the north and the street named Main Gate to the east, the former Foundry south of Foundry Road, and Helena Street to the west with its historic Railway Institute building and new mixed use development.
Lot 803 and other development lots frame a major public open space known as Railway Square that was once a railway shunting yard. The former Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Office occupies Lot 802 on Yelverton Drive beside the Peace Memorial Gardens and a ceremonial railway line has been retained as part of Railway Square’s significant heritage elements.
The Railway Square Precinct is a high-density master planned community at the heart of the redevelopment. High density and high amenity new development is encouraged by the development guidelines to retain the character of the precincts industrial heritage.
New development will complete the square, with active ground floor uses that are suited to such a festival square location e.g. alfresco dining, restaurants, casual food outlets, entertainment related activities and small retail premises. On upper floors residential apartments overlooking the square are sought, to interact with activity in the square and to improve safety and security.
Lot 803 Foundry Road, A Development Asset
This 2,304m[2] site was acquired on 12 June 2014 and is located in the Railway Square Precinct. The development comprises approximately 70 residential units and 5 retail units over four levels with a common basement.
A development application was lodged with the MRA on 17 June 2014 and approval is anticipated to be received by the end of 2014.
Mustera has continued with design development and the preparation of marketing collateral during the development approval period.
Once a development approval is received for the project, Mustera will commence the marketing campaign in order to achieve a set level of committed sales. The development programme is expected to be approximately 20 months, subject to a number of applications and approvals being received from multiple authorities. In the event a development decision is taken for this asset, Mustera will need to consider an appropriate financing structure normally applicable to a development of this size and scale.
Land Size: 2,304m[2]
Net Saleable Area (NSA): 4,900m[2] (Circa)

82 Belmont Avenue, Rivervale, WA
82 Belmont Avenue was acquired on 3 August 2012. The property is located in Rivervale, approximately 8 kilometres east of the Perth CBD. The property comprises a 4,031m[2] parcel of land within the inner suburban locality of Belmont and the improvement comprises a 1970’s built older style office/workshop facility. The site was acquired with the intention of commercial and/or residential redevelopment with the lease in place and lease renewal providing income prior to the redevelopment of the site in the medium term.
Whilst addressed as Rivervale, the property is actually incorporated within the Belmont commercial precinct. Belmont is an inner suburban commercial and industrial location, which benefits close proximity to the Perth CBD and good transport infrastructure. The suburb comprises a mixture of developments containing offices, showrooms and warehouses, and in recent years has seen an increased number of redevelopment to office uses. Belmont and Rivervale both benefit from close proximity to both Perth domestic and international terminals, which are located a short distance east of the property.
Belmont and Rivervale industrial area is generally contained between Great Eastern Highway to the east, Alexander Road to the west, Belmont Avenue to the south and Abernethy Road/Belgravia Street to the north. The suburb contains residential land use which includes single residential or grouped housing developments, but more recently has begun to incorporate multi-level apartment developments.
To the south of the property the main residential area of the Rivervale locality is located, whilst to the north, east and west is industrial and commercial in land use.
Future development of the site includes the demolition of the existing dated structure and construction of multiple office/showroom strata units and/or development of multi-level residential dwellings.

RISK FACTORS
5.1 INTRODUCTION
Mustera’s business activities are subject to risks which are specific both to its investment in property and its operations, as well as of a general nature. Individually, or in combination, these risks may affect the future operating performance of Mustera and the value of an investment in the Company.
All investors should note that this Section identifies the Directors’ current views on the key risks of an investment in Mustera and is not intended to be exhaustive. Prospective investors should carefully consider the risk factors identified, in addition to the other information in this Prospectus, before deciding to invest in Shares. Prospective investors should ensure they have sufficient awareness of the risks and have regard to their own investment objectives, financial circumstances and taxation position before deciding to invest.
If you do not understand any part of this Prospectus, or are in doubt as to whether to invest in Shares or not, it is recommended that you seek professional guidance from your broker, solicitor, accountant or other qualified adviser before deciding whether to invest.
5.2 GENERAL MARKET RISKS
5.2.1 Share market conditions
There are risks associated with any investment in listed securities. The market price of listed securities such as the Shares in Mustera may fluctuate, resulting in the Shares trading at prices below or above the Offer Price. These fluctuations may be due to a number of factors including:
-
changes to general economic conditions in Australia and abroad including inflation, interest rates and exchange rates;
-
demand for securities in property companies both domestically and internationally;
-
changes in government policy, legislation and regulations;
-
changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;
-
the demand for, and supply of, capital; and
-
general and operational business risks.
Consequently, the Shares may not fully reflect Mustera’s underlying business and net asset value. The value of an investment in Mustera could decrease as well as increase and investors who decide to sell their Shares may receive less than the amount invested.
Further, Mustera has no trading history on public markets prior to the Offer. Consequently, following listing on ASX there is no guarantee that an active trading market will develop for the Shares. Liquidity of the Shares will be dependent on the number of relative buyers and sellers in the market at any given time. Additionally, large Shareholders choosing to trade out of their positions at discounts to prevailing market prices may also affect the market. Increased trading price volatility may occur as a result of any of these factors.
None of Mustera, its Directors or any other person guarantees the performance of the Shares.
5.2.2 Legislative, regulatory and policy changes
Legislative or regulatory changes, or the interpretation of such, may have legal, tax or accounting consequences that adversely affect Mustera. Any such changes may operate retrospectively.
5.2.3 Taxation risk
Changes in income tax, capital gains tax, GST or stamp duty legislation, case law, rulings and determinations issued by the Australian Commissioner of Taxation and other tax authorities, particularly in regard to investment in incomeproducing properties, may adversely affect Mustera’s profitability and cash flow, as well as the tax treatment of returns received by Shareholders.
5.2.4 General business risk
Mustera is exposed to general business risk. This includes, but is not limited to, counterparty performance risk, staff retention risk, occupational health and safety risk, taxation change risk, other regulatory change risk, dispute risk, environmental and contamination risk and insurance coverage risk.
PROSPECTUS ǀ MUSTERA PROPERTY GROUP LTD

RISK FACTORS
5.3 RISKS SPECIFIC TO MUSTERA
In addition to the general risks set out in Section 5.2 the Directors believe that there are a number of factors specific to Mustera and the industry in which it operates that should be taken into account before investors make their investment decision. Some of the risks specific to Mustera include, but are not limited to, the following:
5.3.1 Property Valuations
Valuations ascribed to property will be influenced by a number of ongoing factors including:
-
changes in market rental rates;
-
fluctuating occupancy levels;
-
a downturn in the property market in general;
-
pricing of any competing properties;
-
tenants defaulting;
-
increased competition from new or existing properties;
-
increases in supply or falls in demand for property; and
-
general economic conditions, such as interest rates and capitalisation rates.
The value of, and returns from, properties owned by the Company may fluctuate depending on property market conditions. Demand for property may change as investor preferences for particular sectors and asset classes change over time and can be influenced by general economic factors such as interest rates and share market cycles.
Property values may fall, and they may fall quickly, if the underlying assumptions on which the property valuations are based differ in the future. As changes in valuations of the properties are recorded in the Company’s income statement, any decreases in value will have a negative impact on the income statement.
The property valuation contained in Section 8 of this Prospectus reflects the valuer’s assessment of the value of the property as at the date of valuation. The valuation is subject to a number of assumptions which may not be accurate. Valuations may differ depending on the valuer appointed. A valuation may not reflect the actual price that would be realised if a property were to be sold.
5.3.2 Rental income
Earnings made by Mustera will be dependent upon the rents received from its property portfolio, occupancy levels and the level of non-recoverable outgoings. Rental income may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including:
-
overall macroeconomic conditions which may give rise to fluctuations in property market conditions;
-
local real estate conditions;
-
competition from other property owners;
-
the financial condition of tenants;
-
rental arrears and vacancy periods;
-
incentives offered to attract prospective tenants;
-
expenses associated with re-leasing tenancies; and
-
external factors including significant security incidents, acts of God or a major world event.
All of the above factors may affect the earnings of the Company and the market price of the Company’s Shares.
5.3.3 Development risk
Part of Mustera’s business is to identify, analyse and invest in development projects which have a number of inherent risks in addition to those associated with real estate generally, including:
-
a risk that appropriate planning consents are not obtained or, if obtained, are not properly adhered to;
-
a risk that development costs escalate beyond those originally anticipated;
-
a risk of project delays due to factors beyond the control of Mustera;
-
a risk that any property development manager and/or subcontractor appointed to implement a development project does not perform their role to a satisfactory standard or acts or fails to act in breach of contract;
-
a risk that competing property development projects adversely affect the overall return achieved by a property development project undertaken by Mustera because they provide competitive alternatives for potential purchasers and potential lessees;
-
a risk that warranty claims arise subsequent to a development that the Company may be liable for;
-
a risk that the property does not sell; and
-
a risk that market conditions change during any development.
Although some of these risks can be mitigated, it is not possible to remove entirely the risks inherent in project development. All of the above factors may affect the earnings of the Company and the market price of the Company’s Shares.
PROSPECTUS ǀ MUSTERA PROPERTY GROUP LTD
20
RISK FACTORS
5.3.4 Re-leasing and vacancy
There is a risk that Mustera may not be able to negotiate suitable lease extensions with existing tenants or replace outgoing tenants with new tenants on the same terms (if at all).
Mustera's rental income may also be negatively impacted by any increases in amounts not recoverable from tenants that might be incurred by Mustera.
5.3.5 Funding for Mustera
Mustera will rely on external funding sources (debt and equity funding) for its property portfolio. See Section 5.3.16 for details relating to risk of dilution by future equity capital raisings.
Mustera's ability to raise capital from either debt or equity markets on favourable terms for future activities cannot be guaranteed and is dependent on a number of factors, including:
-
the general economic climate;
-
the state of debt and equity capital markets; and
-
the performance, reputation and financial strength of Mustera.
In relation to debt funding of the development projects, Mustera will be required to achieve a minimum level of committed sales as one of the conditions of the funding. In the event such a condition is not satisfied, Mustera may not be able to source debt funding and the value in the development project may be impaired.
A lack of or increased cost of capital could impact the funding costs of Mustera and therefore impact the Company’s earnings.
5.3.6 Inability to complete disposals or acquisitions
There is a risk that Mustera will be unable to dispose of and/or acquire properties on appropriate terms, thereby potentially limiting the growth potential of Mustera. Mustera's failure to deliver or effectively execute its stated strategy including its acquisition and/or disposal of properties or its failure to redefine its strategy to meet changing conditions could result in a decline in the price of Shares. Mustera will endeavour to do all reasonable and necessary due diligence on properties it is intending to acquire, however there is a risk that potential issues are uncovered subsequent to due diligence and that these risks cannot be fully mitigated by the warranties and indemnities in the sale and purchase agreements for those acquisitions. If an unforeseen liability arises in respect of which the purchaser is not able to be indemnified, this may adversely impact Mustera. There can be no assurance that any future acquisitions and/or disposals will enhance the investment returns of Shareholders.
5.3.7 Property liquidity
Mustera will invest in assets that are not listed on a stock exchange or for which there are only a limited number of potential investors. As a consequence, the realisable value of an asset may be less than its expected value and divestment of the asset at such a time may adversely affect Shareholder returns.
5.3.8 Limited history
The Company was incorporated on 3 March 2010 as Mutual Street Property Group Pty Ltd. It changed its name to Mustera Property Group Pty Ltd on 25 February 2014 and converted to a public company on 27 June 2014. The Company has limited historical financial performance and has not completed any property developments to date. Investors will be subject to the risk that implementation of its property development objectives may be unsuccessful. Further, the Board and senior management team does not comprise any person with more than a one year involvement in Mustera’s business other than Mr Benjamin Young.
5.3.9 Liquidity risk
The Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus will comprise less than 13% of the Company’s issued share capital (at minimum subscription) and less than 22% if maximum oversubscriptions are accepted.
There can be no guarantee that an active market in the Company’s Shares will develop or that the price of the Shares will increase. There is no guarantee that there will be an ongoing liquid market for the Company’s Shares. Accordingly, there is a risk that, should the market for the Company’s Shares become illiquid, Shareholders will be unable to realise their investment in the Company.
5.3.10 Loss of key management personnel
Mustera’s business strategy will be implemented by the Board and the management team led by Nicholas Zborowski as the Company’s Executive Director. Mustera’s success will depend in a large part on the judgment and performance of the Board and executives. The loss of services of any key personnel could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s ability to successfully implement Mustera’s business strategy. Nicholas Zborowski’s employment terms provide him with the ability to give 3 months’ notice of resignation.
5.3.11 Capital expenditure requirements
While Mustera intends to undertake reasonable due diligence investigations prior to acquiring properties, there can be no assurance that any properties acquired will not have defects or deficiencies, or that unforeseen capital expenditure or other costs will not arise.
PROSPECTUS ǀ MUSTERA PROPERTY GROUP LTD
21
RISK FACTORS
An increase in capital expenditure may require additional funding, or sales of existing properties or assets, which may impact future performance. Refer to Section 5.3.16 for further information relation to the risk of dilution by future equity capital raising.
5.3.12 Financial and interest rate risk
Mustera may use leverage to maintain an optimal capital structure for its property investments. The use of leverage may enhance returns and enable a broader range of investments to be made. However, it will increase the exposure of Mustera to financial and interest rate risk. These risks may result in the negative performance of investments and a reduction in the underlying value of Mustera and its Shares. As such, the achievement of the Company’s investment objectives cannot be guaranteed.
Mustera is also exposed to risks relating to the re-financing of existing debt facilities, or any future debt facilities it may undertake. The terms on which debt facilities are re-financed may also be less favourable than those previously negotiated. Mustera has a covenant in relation to its debt facility. Factors such as falls in asset values and the inability to achieve timely asset sales at prices acceptable to Mustera could lead to a breach in debt covenants and in such an event Mustera’s lenders may require their loans to be repaid immediately or may take enforcement action over property securing the facilities.
5.3.13 Insurance
Mustera maintains insurance which it believes to be consistent with industry practice and adequate having regard to its business strategy. However, no assurance can be given that Mustera will be able to obtain such insurance coverage in the future at reasonable rates or that any coverage it arranges will be adequate. Insurance in relation to Mustera’s assets may not cover all events or all claims made. Further, appropriate cover for terrorism and other uninsurable risks may not be available, or the cover that is available may not be adequate or commercially viable.
5.3.14 Litigation risk
Mustera may be the subject of complaints from or litigation by Shareholders, tenants, government agencies or other third parties. While Mustera has in place professional indemnity insurance, certain events may not be covered by professional indemnity insurance, or the claims incurred may be in excess of the insured amount.
In addition, if Mustera breaches the law, this may result in a fine or penalty. Such matters may have a material adverse effect on Mustera's reputation, divert its financial and management resources from more beneficial uses, and/or have a material adverse effect on Mustera's future financial performance or position. Mustera is not aware of any uninsured claims or legal proceedings of a material nature against Mustera.
5.3.15 Occupational Health and Safety
There is a risk that liability arising from occupational health and safety matters at a property owned by the Company may be attributable to Mustera as the landlord instead of, or as well as, the tenant. To the extent that any liabilities may be borne by Mustera, this may impact the financial position and performance of Mustera (to the extent not covered by insurance). In addition, penalties may be imposed upon Mustera, which may have an adverse impact on Mustera.
5.3.16 Dilution
Investors may be diluted by future capital raisings by Mustera. Shares may be issued to finance future acquisitions, supplement working capital or pay down debt which may, under certain circumstances, dilute the value of Shareholders' interests. Where possible, Mustera will endeavour to ensure when raising equity that the benefit to investors of acquiring the relevant assets or reducing gearing is greater than the impact caused by the dilution associated with a capital raising.
5.3.17 Environmental issues and contaminations
As with any property, there is a risk that a property may be contaminated now or in the future. Government environmental authorities may require such contamination to be remediated. There is always a residual risk that Mustera may be required to undertake any such remediation at its own cost. Such an event would adversely impact Mustera's financial performance.
In addition, environmental laws impose penalties for environmental damage and contamination, which can be material in size. Exposure to hazardous substance at a property could result in personal injury claims. Such a claim could prove greater than the value of the contaminated property.
Due to the time period in which the Company’s existing investment properties were originally constructed, there is the chance that hazardous materials such as asbestos may be contained within certain areas. There is a risk that these materials will need to be removed in the future as opposed to being monitored and contained. This may increase the capital expenditure requirements of Mustera and potentially adversely affect the Company’s financial performance. An environmental issue may also result in interruptions to the operations of any property owned by the Company, including loss as a result of closure. Any consequential loss of rental income may not be recoverable.
Mustera and the operations of tenants in the Company’s properties are subject to government environmental legislation. While environmental issues are continually monitored, there is no assurance that Mustera's operations or those of a tenant will not be affected by an environmental incident or subject to environmental liabilities.

Notes to the historical financial information
6.3.1 Assumptions used in compiling the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Financial Position
The pro forma consolidated statement of financial position shown in Figure 6.2 is based on the audited statutory consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2014 adjusted for pro forma adjustments as if they were completed on 30 June 2014. These included:
-
the raising of additional seed capital in July and August 2014 which provided $1,156,666 in cash after costs and resulted in the issue of 10,044,403 Shares, and
-
the impact of the Offer of 10,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.20 each to raise $2,000,000 before estimated costs of $275,000, which is the minimum subscription level for the Offer. Oversubscriptions of up to a further 10,000,000 Shares to raise up to a further $2,000,000 before estimated additional costs of 110,000 may be accepted. The Offer is expected to be completed on or about 20 November 2014.
Details of the pro forma adjustments made to the audited statutory consolidated historical statement of financial position for Mustera as at 30 June 2014 are set out in notes 6.3.3 and 6.3.4 below.
The pro forma consolidated historical statement of financial position is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not represented as being necessarily indicative of Mustera’s view on its future financial position.
6.3.2 Statement of Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the historical financial information included in this section are set out below.
(a) Basis of preparation of historical financial information
The historical financial information has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement, but not all the disclosure requirements, of the Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities.
The financial information has also been prepared on an historical cost basis, except for, where applicable, the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, investment properties, certain classes of property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments.
(b) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the consolidated entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
Rent
Rent revenue from investment properties is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives granted are recognised as part of the rental revenue. Contingent rentals are recognised as income in the period when earned.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
(c) Income tax
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:
-
(i) except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
-
(ii) in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:
-
(i) except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
-
(ii) in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
PROSPECTUS ǀ MUSTERA PROPERTY GROUP LTD
25
6. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
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.
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.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
The Group has unused tax losses. However, no deferred tax balances have been recognised, as it is considered that asset recognition criteria have not been met at this time.
(d) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(e) Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is raised when there is objective evidence that the consolidated entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation and default or delinquency in payments (more than 60 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable may be impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(f) Inventories
Property development
Development properties held for resale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is assigned by specific identification and includes the cost of acquisition and development and borrowing costs during development. Net realisable value is determined on the basis of sales in the ordinary course of business. Expenses of marketing, selling and distribution to customers are estimated and deducted to establish net realisable value. Where the net realisable value of inventory is less than cost, an impairment expense is recognised in the consolidated income statement. Reversals of previously recognised impairment charges are recognised in the consolidated income statement such that the inventory is always carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. When development is completed, borrowing costs and other holding charges are expensed as incurred.
(g) Investment properties
Investment property is property which is held either to earn income or for capital appreciation or both. Investment property also includes properties that are under construction for future use as investment properties. Initially, investment property is measured at cost including transaction costs. The investment property is subsequently measured at fair value, with any change therein recognised in profit or loss. As part of the process of determining fair value, an external, independent valuer, having an appropriate recognised professional qualification and experience in the location and category of property being valued, values individual properties periodically as considered appropriate and as determined by management.
In addition, the Group may utilise internal valuation processes for determining fair value at balance date. These valuation processes are taken into consideration when determining the fair value of the investment properties. The fair value is based on market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgably, prudently and without compulsion. The valuations are prepared by considering the capitalisation of net income and the discounting of future cash flows to their present value. These methods incorporate assumptions of future rental income and costs, appropriate capitalisation and discount rates and also consider market evidence of transaction prices for similar investment properties.
Valuations reflect, where appropriate:
-
the type of tenants actually in occupation or responsible for meeting lease commitments or likely to be in occupation after letting of vacant accommodation and the market’s general perception of their creditworthiness;
-
the allocation of maintenance and other operating cost responsibilities between lessor and lessee; and
-
the remaining economic life of the property.
PROSPECTUS ǀ MUSTERA PROPERTY GROUP LTD
26
- FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(h) Property, plant and equipment
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows:
• Furniture & fittings 5-10 years
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to the item disposed of is transferred directly to retained profits.
(i) Trade and other payables
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Group. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 30 days. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
(j) Borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, borrowings are classified as non-current.
(k) Issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
(l) Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except where 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.
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 Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(m) Accounting estimates and judgements
In the process of applying the accounting policies, management has made certain judgements or estimations which have an effect on the amounts recognised in the financial information.
The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:
Valuation of investment properties held at fair value
The Group makes judgements in respect of the fair value of investment properties (Note (g) above). The fair value of these properties are reviewed regularly by management with reference to external independent property valuations and market conditions existing at reporting date, using generally accepted market practices. The assumptions underlying estimated fair values are those relating to the receipt of contractual rents, expected future market rentals, maintenance requirements, capitalisation rates and discount rates that reflect current market conditions and current or recent property investment prices. If there is any material change in these assumptions or regional, national or international economic conditions, the fair value of investment properties may differ and may need to be reestimated.
Inventories
The net realisable value of inventories is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs to sell which approximates fair value less costs to sell. The key assumptions require the use of management judgement and are reviewed annually. These key assumptions are the variables affecting the estimated costs to develop and sell and the expected selling price. Any reassessment of cost to develop and sell or selling price in a particular year will affect the cost of goods sold.

6.3.8 Forecasts
The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.
As a consequence, the Directors believe the Company is not in a position to disclose a reliable forecast in this Prospectus other than its pro forma statement of financial position as set out above.

This includes responsibility for such internal controls as the Directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of Historical Financial Information and the Pro Forma Statement of Financial Position are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
4. Our responsibility
Financial Information
The Investigating Accountant’s responsibility is to express a limited assurance conclusion on the Financial Information based on the procedures performed and the evidence we have obtained. We have conducted our engagement in accordance with the Standard on Assurance Engagement ASAE 3450 Assurance Engagements involving Corporate Fundraisings and/or Prospective Financial Information .
We have reviewed the Financial Information in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, anything has come to our attention that would cause us to believe that the Financial Information is not prepared, in all material aspects, by the Directors on the basis of the stated basis of preparation.
Our review of the Financial Information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain reasonable assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Our review of the Financial Information did not involve updating or re-issuing any previously issued audit or review report on any financial information used as a source of the Historical Financial Information and Pro forma Statement of Financial Position.
5. Conclusion
Conclusion on the Financial Information
Based on our review, which was not an audit, nothing has come to our attention which would cause us to believe the Financial Information does not present fairly, in all material aspects:
2
==> picture [78 x 31] intentionally omitted <==
-
the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income for FY12, FY13 and FY14;

-
the Pro Forma Statement of Financial Position as at 30 June 2014,
in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements (but not all the presentation and disclosure requirements) of Australian Accounting Standards and the accounting policies adopted by Mustera.
6. Consent
BDO Corporate Finance has consented to the inclusion of this Report in the Prospectus in the form and context in which it is included. At the date of this Report, this consent has not been withdrawn.
7. Disclosures
BDO Corporate Finance is the corporate advisory arm of BDO in Perth.

As a result, the Financial Information may not be suitable for use for another purpose.
Neither BDO Corporate Finance nor BDO, nor any director or executive or employee thereof, has any financial interest in the outcome of the proposed transaction except for the normal professional fee due for the preparation of this Report.

Where possible, within the scope of our retainer and limited to our expertise as valuers, we have reviewed this information including by analysis against industry standards. Based upon that review, we have no reason to believe that the information is not fair and reasonable or that material facts have been withheld. However, our enquiries are necessarily limited by the nature of our role and we do not warrant that we have identified or verified all of the matters which a full audit, extensive examination or �due diligence� investigation might disclose.
Our valuation is conditional on the following:
-
Our valuation is conditional that there is no potential conflict of interest / related party entities in relation to the current owner of the subject property (Mustera Property Group Limited) and the current tenant (Origin Oz Pty Limited).
-
Under the terms of the existing lease, the ownership of the gantry cranes (currently 2 x 6.3 tonne cranes) within the warehouse passes to the Landlord at lease expiry. Our valuation herein ascribes no value to the potential realisable value of such fixtures at expiry, nor does it incorporate a cost to remove the cranes from the warehouse.
-
In accordance with the Limited Hazardous Materials & Targeted Environmental Assessment report provided, we recommend that the owner commission a Hazardous Materials / Asbestos Register and/or Management Plan at the property to confirm the level of hazardous materials present on site. Should such a report indicate material capital expenditure (or preclude continued industrial usage of the property), the matter should be referred to the valuer for comment and consideration as to the potential effect on value.
-
Gross Lettable Area of 5,283.5m² subject to the building plans provided (as prepared by RealServe dated February 2013).
-
Our valuation is conditional upon the sound structural condition of the building, fully operational building services and compliance with building, health and fire safety regulations. Any known or discovered structural deficiencies should be referred to the Valuer for review if warranted.
-
Our valuation is conditional upon the building being fully contained within the boundaries of the site. Our valuation is conditional on the site not being contaminated and should subsequent investigations show the site is contaminated, our valuation will require revision.
-
Our valuation is conditional upon there being no encumbrances or interests other than those on title which materially affect the value, marketability and continued utility of the property.
-
While all reasonable endeavours have been made to clarify the accuracy of the information provided, it is assumed that the information provided by our client and / or their representatives consists of a full and frank disclosure of all information that is relevant.
We have disregarded the presence of any mortgage or other financial liens pertaining to the property.
We also note that the valuation is current as at the date of valuation only we can give no guarantee that the properties or valuations have not altered since the date of valuation.

Market Commentary
Further yield compression is being recorded in the investment market with strong levels of capital inflow looking for exposure to the sector. Average prime yields range between 7.75% and 8.50% (based on a five year WALE), however modern assets with long lease durations would trade well below this range. After tracking at the bottom of the cycle for around three years, the value of medium and large sized land parcels have started appreciating. Driving the growth is competition for a limited amount of developable land parcels for sale, with demand stemming from both owner occupiers and developers looking to restock depleted inventory levels.
Industrial tenant demand has been relatively modest over the past 12 months and as a result rents have remained largely unchanged. The exception has been the South, where prime rents increased 3.5% in the year to April 2014. However, led by the lift in housing construction and retail spending, the macro drivers for the NSW industrial market are starting to provide the basis for an improvement in tenant demand, although this is yet to materialise in leasing deal activity.
In the year to April, gross take up (excl. D&C�s) for lease deals in excess of 5,000m² amounted to 479,599m². Although this represents a 12% decline compared to the previous corresponding period, there has been a notable increase in the uptake of prime stock. Since mid-2013 gross take-up of prime grade stock has measured 174,692m² compared to 84,331m² for secondary. Coupled with pre-lease activity, which is not included in these absorption figures, prime demand is substantially outpacing that for secondary. This had not been the case in the preceding 12 months, when a number of tenants behaved cautiously and utilised cheaper secondary options with shorter lease terms.
Gross supply of industrial projects (in excess of 5,000m²) is forecast to measure 412,015m² in 2014. Although relatively in line with last year, this amount of supply is 29% below the 10 year average and continues a period of relatively low development levels. The majority of new supply is located in the Outer West region, which accounts for 61.2% of the 2014 forecast total and includes the six largest projects. A significant proportion of these 2014 projects stem from the logistics sector with pre-lease facilities to tenants such as Toll (53,305m²), DHL (31,745m²) and Kuehne + Nagel (20,500m²).
Valuation Analysis & Assumptions
The following schedule summarises relevant comparable industrial investment sales which have been considered in the preparation of our valuation.

The adopted value of $6,200,000 (exclusive of GST) on the property subject to existing lease reflects the following investment and value parameters:
| Core market yield | : | 9.24% |
|---|---|---|
| Passing initial yield | : | 9.04% |
| Rate per m² of GLA | : | $1,173/m² |
| Rate per m² of Site Area Improved | : | $308/m² |
The adopted value of $5,500,000 (exclusive of GST) on the property subject to vacant possession reflects the following investment and value parameters:

|---|---|---|
| Passing initial yield | : | N/A |
| Rate per m² of GLA | : | $1,041/m² |

Yield Definitions
*Core Market Yield = the percentage return/yield analysed when the assessed fully leased net market income is divided by the adopted value/price plus adjustments to account for property specific issues (i.e. rental reversions, rental downtime for imminent expiries, capital expenditure, current vacancies, incentives, etc). In essence, this yield is risk adjusted.

BOARD, MANAGEMENT AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
9.3 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
This Section 9.3 explains how the Board will oversee the management of the Company’s business. The Board is responsible for the overall corporate governance of the Company. The Board monitors the operational and financial position and performance of the Company and oversees its business strategy including approving the strategic goals of the Company. The Board is committed to maximising performance, generating financial returns and greater value for Shareholders, and achieving growth and success of the Company. In conducting the Company’s business with these objectives, the Board seeks to ensure that the Company is properly managed to protect and enhance Shareholder interests, and that the Company, and its Directors, officers and personnel operate in an appropriate environment of corporate governance. Accordingly, the Board has created a framework for managing the Company including adopting corporate governance policies and practices which it believes are appropriate for the Company’s business and which are designed to promote the responsible management and conduct of the Company.
The main policies and practices adopted by the Company, which will take effect from the Company’s listing on ASX, are summarised below. In addition, many governance elements are contained in the Constitution. The Company’s code of conduct outlines how the Company expects Directors and other personnel to behave and conduct business in a range of circumstances. In particular, the code specifies standards of honesty, integrity, ethical and law-abiding behaviour expected of Directors, management and employees and requires awareness of, and compliance with, laws and regulations relevant to the Company’s operations as well as other policies that Directors and employees are required to comply with, including occupational health and safety, privacy and fair dealing and conflict of interest. Details of the Company’s key policies and practices and the charters for the Board and each of its committees will be available at www.mustera.com.au.
The Company is seeking a listing on the ASX. The ASX Corporate Governance Council has developed and released its Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations for Australian listed entities (“ ASX Recommendations ”) in order to promote investor confidence and to assist companies in meeting stakeholder expectations. The ASX Recommendations are not prescriptive, but guidelines. However, under ASX Listing Rules, the Company is required to provide a statement disclosing the extent to which it will follow, as at the date of its admission to the Official List, the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council. Where the Company does not intend to follow a recommendation, it must separately identify the recommendation that will not be followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation, and what (if any) alternative governance practices it intends to adopt in lieu of the recommendation. The Company’s departures from the ASX Recommendations are identified in Section 9.3.9.
9.3.1 Board of Directors
The Board of Directors comprises one Executive Director and three Non-Executive Directors. The Company presently does not have a chairman.
Biographies of the Board members are provided in Section 9.1.
The Board considers an Independent Director to be a Non-Executive Director who is not a member of the Company’s Management and who is free of any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with, or reasonably be perceived to interfere with, the independent exercise of their judgement. The Board reviews the independence of each Director in light of interests disclosed to the Board from time to time.
The Board charter sets out guidelines and thresholds of materiality for the purpose of determining the independence of Directors in accordance with the ASX Recommendations and has adopted a definition of independence that is based on that set out in the ASX Recommendations.
The Board considers that each of Anthony Ho, Benjamin Young and Jack Spencer-Cotton is an Independent Director for the purpose of the ASX Recommendations as each is free from any interest, position, association or relationship that could materially interfere with, or reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with, the independent exercise of their judgement. Nicholas Zborowski is an Executive Director of the Company and therefore, not independent.
Accordingly, the Board will consist of 75% Independent Directors and no Chairman has been appointed. Regardless, the Board considers that each of the Non-Executive Directors brings objective and independent judgement to the Board’s deliberations and that each of the Non-Executive Directors makes a valuable contribution to the Company through the skills they bring to the Board and their understanding of the Company’s business.

9.3.7 Code of conduct
The Board recognises the need to observe the highest standards of corporate practice and business conduct. Accordingly, the Board has adopted a formal code of conduct to be followed by all employees and officers.
The key aspects of this code are that employees and directors are to:

-
act in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations, policies and procedures;
-
have responsibility and accountability for reporting and investigating reports of unethical practices; and
-
use the Company’s resources and property properly.
The code of conduct sets out or refers to separate documents outlining the Company’s policies on various matters including ethical conduct, fair dealing, compliance, privacy, confidentiality, integrity and conflicts of interest.
9.3.8 Shareholder Communications Policy
The Board’s aim is to ensure that Shareholders are provided with sufficient information to assess the performance of the Company and to inform Shareholders of major developments affecting the state of affairs of the Company in accordance with all applicable laws. Information will be communicated to Shareholders through the lodgement of all relevant financial and other information with the ASX and publishing information on the Company’s website, www.mustera.com.au.
In particular, the Company’s website will contain information about it, including media releases, key policies and the terms of reference of its Board committees. All relevant announcements made to the market and any other relevant information will be posted on the Company’s website after release to the ASX (subject to applicable securities laws).

Under ASX Listing Rules, the Company is required to provide a statement disclosing the extent to which it will follow, as at the date of its admission to the Official List, the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council. Where the Company does not intend to follow a recommendation, it must separately identify the recommendation that will not be followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation, and what (if any) alternative governance practices it intends to adopt in lieu of the recommendation.
Except as set out below, the Board does not anticipate that it will depart from the ASX Recommendations. However, it may do so in the future if it considers that such departure would be reasonable.
| RECOMMENDATION | COMMENT ON DEPARTURE | |

| 1.5 | A listed entity should: (a) have a diversity policy which includes requirements for the board or a relevant committee of the board to set measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity and to assess annually both the objectives and the entity’s progress in achieving them; (b) disclose that policy or a summary of it; and (c) disclose as at the end of each reporting period the measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity set by the board or a relevant committee of the board in accordance with the entity’s diversity policy and its progress towards achieving them, and either: (1) the respective proportions of men and women on the board, in senior executive positions and across the whole organisation (including how the entity has defined “senior executive” for these purposes); or (2) if the entity is a “relevant employer” under the Workplace Gender Equality Act, the entity’s most recent “Gender Equality Indicators”, as defined in and published under that Act |
The Company has not established a diversity policy. The Board considers that at this time no efficiencies or other benefits would be gained by introducing a formal diversity policy. In the future, as the Company grows and increases in size and activity, the Board will consider the adoption of a formal diversity policy. As a consequence of not having a diversity policy, and until such time as a diversity policy is adopted, the Company will not disclose at the end of each reporting period the measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity and progress towards achieving them. |
