Group Operations have been classified and reviewed by Divisions:

Business structure

The company has been organised into the following divisions

Paint Applications PT Ace Oldfields Indonesia Tangshan Hengfeng Painting Accessories Co Ltd Aluminium Scaffold

1

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 02 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES DIRECTORS' REPORT

Garden Sheds & Storage Solutions

Investments

Paint Application Products

The 91 Year old Division improved sales and profit contribution for the year. The company was able to secure and additional business moving into 2008.

Oldfields has become more competitive during the last five years and expects that its China based associate Joint Venture Company, Tangshan Hengfeng Painting Accessories Co Ltd's strategies, moving into the future, will assist in maintaining a prominent market position.

The Division acquired the Business of Robertson's Putty, a business established in 1933. It has strong links with the glazing industry. It is expected to provide additional benefit and a new product extension to our existing customer base in 2008.

The Division also acquired the business of Painteroo Products. The Company issued a total of 92,592 shares to its vendors. The company has become a leader in OH&S forcused Painter's Bucket technology with design and trademark registration pending.

PT Ace Oldfields Indonesia

Oldfields International Pty Ltd owns 49% share in this associate.

As previously announced in 2006, this Indonesian based associate is going through a shift in customer base focus. Its export sales declined as a result of a loss in US based business but increased in local trade. As a direct result, this Division's contribution declined as a result of the US business decline. Its customer base has become more evenly distributed moving forward.

The business is well operated and a focus on cost minimisation makes it one of the lowest cost producers of quality products in the world. The quality produced in this facility is not easily duplicated by any Asian competitors and it relies on the group's intellectual property to produce some of its Paint Application lines.

Tangshan Hengfeng Painting Accessories Co Ltd

Oldfields International Pty Ltd owns 37% share in this Associate China Company.

The company is pleased to report that production has now commenced and that initial export and local sales have commenced. The sales are steadily gearing up.

The group invested in a local China facility, including a large parcel of land and has constructed a modern manufacturing facility, which is world class and a real asset to the group moving forward. It expects that with China's strong economy, it will provide the company opportunities for growth in the coming years.

The Board believes that this facility will eventually assist its plans to position itself as a world leader in Paint Applications products.

This Joint Venture Company will provide our Australian shareholders a chance to share in th fast growing Chinese market within a disciplined and controlled environment.

Aluminium Scaffold business

This Division recorded double digit growth in revenue compared to last year. The division undertook to expand with the integration of its new network of branches in WA with Aluminium Scaffold Services, Scaffold Hirers (South Australia) and Direct Scaffolds (Newcastle). These new branches exceeded revenue budgeted forecasts for the year. The company has since, in July 2007, purchased a leading Australian Aluminium Scaffold business known as Advance Scaffolds. The integration was performed seamlessly and initiatives have begun to secure synergy gains as a result of the acquisition.

The company is now the leading force in Aluminium Scaffolding in Australia. Its "Scaffold The World" concept is now exporting to Europe, the Middle East, and Asia along with many countries including the USA.

The Oldfields team was also successful in winning prestigious scaffolding work during the year. The team is very much performance driven with a focus on OH&S related issues within its market and providing access solutions through design, innovation and engineering services to a variety of leading construction customers and hire clientele.

The Oldfields Access factory was relocated in 2006 to occupy the facility at 8 Farrow Rd, Campbelltown in January 2006 and the manufacturing efficiency has improved since the move. Certain synergies from the recent acquisition of Advances Scaffolds and procurement benefits from the company's Southern China factory should see improvements into 2008.

In September 2006, the business purchased a WA scaffold business known as Aluminium Scaffolding Services. This business is located south of Perth and is experiencing solid growth within management expectations. The integration of which happened during the course of 2007. It is set to provide the group additiional shareholder returns in 2008 as it proceeds towards a full year trading in 2008.

The company will seek further expansion of this nature by way of acquisitions or by way of exclusive distributor licence arrangements to take full advantage of emerging technology. The company is looking at cost effective options in this area.

The Division is expected to be a major contributor to the group's earnings in the next few years.

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 02 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES DIRECTORS' REPORT

Garden sheds and storage solutions divisions

This division recorded double digit growth during the last twelve months. It underwent a management change early in the year, and the team is now better focused on productivity gains and on procurement management. As a result, the division was a strong contributor to the year's result.

Whilst this division is an Australian manufacture, located at No 8 Farrow Road, Campbelltown, NSW, 2560, it will seek to take advantage of our China presence and seek to improve procurement into 2008 in its storage solutions category. The Outdoor Storage Solutions Category was introduced during the 2006/2007 period. It has been in successful in providing storage solutions to the hardware industry. It anticipates that a broader customer base will be achived as a result of the decision.

The division is expected to grow into the near future.

Investments

The company's 100% owned Australian investment subsidiary, Sheds Holdings Pty Ltd, completed a number of property transactions during the year. The purpose of which was to secure tenure at our busiest Sydney Scaffold location, along with the manufacturing location for our recently acquired Putty Business. The company also owns real estate in Penrith, which is utilised by a subsidiary company and shares in associated businesses.

Revaluations of the investment property portfolio were conducted under the current accounting standards. This changed the nature of the portfolio and resulted in a net pretax gain to our consolidated EBITDA of $595,034 in this year's account. The company is considering its growth options regarding its portfolio. It anticipates further gains into 2008.

Oldfields International Pty Ltd is a 100% owned subsidiary that invests in off-shore business ventures. Currently, its investment in its China operations also includes a share in its holdings at Tangshan, China. It is expected to yield gains in real estate value into 2008.

The Company's focus with this part of the business is to invest in Real Estate opportunities that are linked to and compliment our existing business plans.

The nature of these investments has changed the core asset backing and debt structure in the company and has provided solid additional tangible asset backing and security to our financiers. The company risk profile is anticipated to continue significantly as a result.

Future outlook

Our team will concentrate on extracting synergies from its recent acquisitions, enhancing the shareholder value by improving their operations. The company anticipates that its operations in the next few months are expected to perform to expectations, with a focus on further cost reduction and efficiency gains. The company is budgeting for increases revenue and profits for the next twelve months. The first few months trading of the new 2008 financial year is showing strong steady improvements.

The Directors believe that given the continual improvement in trading performance, shareholder value will also continue to improve. Currently the company has committed funds to the Joint Venture in China. The company anticipates a return on these funds from 2008/2009. This is anticipated to enhance shareholder earnings.

Despite our good performance, Directors feel that the net earnings would improve sigificantly if the company were able to merge or acquire another suitable small publicly listed company or other suitable entities. Effectively marginalising the effect of its head office and administration costs associated with a listed public company on its business units.

The Board, as per previous disclosures, continues to seek appropriate mergers and/or acquisitions with the possibility of achieving synergies with other companies involved in complimentary business activities. These may involve activities that are diversified to the current operations resulting in certain synergy gain. The company recognises it has strong synergy possibilities with other key groups and will continue to encourage discussion with interested parties in light of its sustained proven strong earnings and dividend history.

In achieving this goal, the Board also recognises the potential to improve share liquidity issues associated with the currently held share register. For example, it has recently issued shares in two recent acquisitions to their vendors. It is anticipates this will continue to improve liquidity.

The Directors are keen to maintain good Corporate Governance. Recent updates have been posted to our corporate website www.oldfields.com.au and the Board undertakes to keep market regularly informed of company progress. It is our goal to continue to improve shareholder value over the next 12 months and beyond.

After Balance Date Events

The company, through its recently incorporated 100% owned subsidiary Advance Scaffold Solutions Pty Ltd, has been successful in acquiring the Advance Scaffold business which includes Forshan Advcorp Scaffolds Limited in China. The settlement of this acquisition occurred on the 2 July 2007. Although the terms of the settlement remain confidiential, the vendors were issued a total of 453,592 shares as part consideration in the settlement. The Company's total Assets have grown materially as a result of this acquisition. The first month's trading on writing this report is within management expectations. This acquisition is expected to be earnings per share positive and is likely to effect the next reporting period. 3

REMUNERATION REPORT

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Oldfields Holdings Limited, and for the executives receiving the highest remuneration.

Remuneration policy

The remuneration policy of Oldfields Holdings Limited has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the consolidated group’s financial results. The board of Oldfields Holdings Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the consolidated group, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.

The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the consolidated group is as follows:

• The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, was developed by the remuneration committee and approved by the board after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants.

4

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 02 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES DIRECTORS' REPORT

  • All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, fringe benefits, options and performance incentives.

  • The remuneration committee reviews executive packages annually by reference to the consolidated group’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors.

The performance of executives is measured against criteria agreed biannually with each executive and is based predominantly on the forecast growth of the consolidated group’s profits and shareholders’ value. All bonuses and incentives must be linked to predetermined performance criteria. The board may, however, exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options, and can recommend changes to the committee’s recommendations. Any changes must be justified by reference to measurable performance criteria. The policy is designed to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth.

Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements.

The executive directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently 9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals, however, have chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation.

All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Shares given to directors and executives are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the director or executive. No such shares were issued in the current year. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology.

The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The remuneration committee determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the consolidated group. However, to align directors interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company and are able to participate in the employee option plan.

Performance based remuneration

As part of each executive director and executives remuneration package there is a performance-based component, consisting of key performance indicators (KPIs). The intention of this program is to facilitate goal congruence between directors/executives with that of the business and shareholders. The KPIs are set annually, with a certain level of consultation with directors/executives to ensure buy-in. The measures are specifically tailored to the areas each director/executive is involved in and has a level of control over. The KPIs target areas the board believes hold greater potential for group expansion and profit, covering financial and non-financial as well as short- and long-term goals. The level set for each KPI is based on budgeted figures for the group and respective industry standards.

Performance in relation to the KPIs is assessed annually, with bonuses being awarded depending on the number and deemed difficulty of the KPIs achieved. Following the assessment, the KPIs are reviewed by the remuneration committee in light of the desired and actual outcomes, and their efficiency is assessed in relation to the groups goals and shareholder wealth, before the KPIs are set for the following year.

In determining whether or not a KPI has been achieved, Oldfields Holdings Limited bases the assessment on audited figures, however, where the KPI involves comparison of the group or a division within the group to the market, independent reports are obtained from organisations such as Standard & Poors.

Company performance, shareholder wealth and director and executive remuneration

The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, directors and executives. There have been two methods applied in achieving this aim, the first being a performance based bonus based on key performance indicators, and the second being the issue of options to the majority of directors and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The company believes this policy to have been effective in increasing shareholder wealth over the past four years.

The following table shows the gross revenue, profits and dividends for the last five years for the listed entity, as well as the share price at the end of the respective financial years. Analysis of the actual figures shows an increase in profits each year as well as an increase or maintenance of dividends paid to shareholders. The improvement in the company’s performance over the last five years has been reflected in the company’s share price with an increase each year, with the exception of [insert year], when the share price fell slightly. The board is of the opinion that these results can be attributed in part to the previously described remuneration policy and is satisfied that this continued improvement has lead to increased shareholder wealth over the past four years.

Performance income as a proportion of total remuneration

Executive directors and executives are paid performance based bonuses based on set monetary figures, rather than proportions of their salary. This has led to the proportions of remuneration related to performance varying between individuals. The remuneration committee has set these bonuses to encourage achievement of specific goals that have been given a high level of importance in relation to the future growth and profitability of the consolidated group.

The remuneration committee will review the performance bonuses to gauge their effectiveness against achievement of the set goals, and adjust future years incentives as they see fit, to ensure use of the most cost effective and efficient methods.

Employment contracts of directors and senior executives

The employment conditions of the Managing Director and specified executives are formalised in contracts of employment. Other than the Managing Director, all executives are permanent employees of the Oldfirelds Group.

The employment contracts stipulate a range of one to three months resignation periods. The company may terminate an employment contract without cause by providing 12 months written notice or making payment in lieu of notice based on the individual's annual salary component, together with a redundancy payment of between 5% and 10% of the individual's fixed salary component. Termination payments are generally not payable on resignation or dismissal for serious misconduct. In the instance of serious misconduct, the company can terminate employment at any time. Any options not exercised before that date will lapse.

Meetings of Directors

During the financial year, 12 meetings of directors (including committees of directors) were held. Attendances by each director during the year were as follows:

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the parent entity.

Where controlled entities have entered or left the consolidated group during the year, their operating results have been included/excluded from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased.

Minority equity interests in the equity and results of the entities that are controlled are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial report.

(b) Income Tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the balance date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the consolidated group will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.

Oldfields Holdings Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. Each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax liabilities, except for any deferred tax assets resulting from unused tax losses and tax credits which are immediately assumed by the parent entity. The current tax liability of each group entity is then subsequently assumed by the parent entity. The group notified the Australian Taxation Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from [insert date]. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated group.

(c) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Overheads are applied on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs or standard costs.

Construction profits are recognised on the stage of completion basis and measured using the proportion of costs incurred to date as compared to expected actual costs. Where losses are anticipated they are provided for in full.

Construction revenue has been recognised on the basis of the terms of the contract adjusted for any variations or claims allowable under the contract.

(d) Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Property

1

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 02 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2007

Freehold land and buildings are shown at their fair value (being the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arms length transaction), based on periodic, but at least triennial, valuations by external independent valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings.

Any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to a revaluation reserve in equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against fair value reserves directly in equity; all other decreases are charged to the income statement. Each year the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset charged to the income statement and depreciation based on the assets original cost is transferred from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including building and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate
Buildings 1%
Leasehold improvements 4 - 5%
Plant and equipment 5 - 50%
Leased plant and equipment 18 - 20%

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

(e) Investment Property

Investment property, comprising freehold office complexes, is held to generate long-term rental yields. All tenant leases are on an arm's length basis. Investment property is carried at fair value, determined annually by independent valuers. Changes to fair value are recorded in the income statement as other income.

(f) Leases

Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership that are transferred to entities in the consolidated group are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term.

(g) Financial Instruments

Recognition

Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss

A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term or if so designated by management and within the requirements of AASB 139: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of these assets are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Held-to-maturity investments

These investments have fixed maturities, and it is the group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. Any held-to-maturity investments held by the group are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Available-for-sale financial assets

2

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 02 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2007

Available-for-sale financial assets include any financial assets not included in the above categories. Available-for-sale financial assets are reflected at fair value. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are taken directly to equity.

Financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation.

Fair value

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arms length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.

Impairment

At each reporting date, the group assess whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.

(h) Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the assets carrying value. Any excess of the assets carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

(i) Investments in Associates

Investments in associate companies are recognised in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting. The equity method of accounting recognised group’s share of post acquisition reserves of its associates.

(j) Interests in Joint Ventures

The consolidated group’s share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of joint venture operations are included in the appropriate items of the consolidated financial statements. Details of the consolidated group's interests are shown in Note 16.

The consolidated group’s interests in joint venture entities are brought to account using the equity method of accounting in the consolidated financial statements. The parent entity’s interests in joint venture entities are brought to account using the cost method.

(k) Intangibles

Goodwill

Goodwill and goodwill on consolidation are initially recorded at the amount by which the purchase price for a business or for an ownership interest in a controlled entity exceeds the fair value attributed to its net assets at date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in investments in associates. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

Research and development

Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.

Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

(l) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentation currency.

Transaction and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the yearend exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the income statement.

Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group’s presentation currency are translated as follows:

  • assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;

  • income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and

  • retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.3

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 02 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2007

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the groups foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed.

(m) Employee Benefits

Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs.

Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.

Equity-settled compensation

The group operates a number of share-based compensation plans. These include both a share option arrangement and an employee share scheme. The bonus element over the exercise price of the employee services rendered in exchange for the grant of shares and options is recognised as an expense in the income statement. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the shares of the options granted.

(n) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

(o) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

(p) Revenue Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers. Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.

Revenue from investment properties is recognised on an accruals basis or straight line basis in accordance with leases agreements. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. Dividends received from associates and joint venture entities are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting.

Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

(q) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in income in the period in which they are incurred.

(r) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.

Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST.

Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(s) Comparative Figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the group

Key Estimates — Impairment

The group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the group that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Value-in-use calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates.

No impairment has been recognised in respect of goodwill for the year ended 30 June 2007. Should the cash flow anticipated from these goodwill be different from those figures incorporated in value-in-use calculations, an impairment loss would be recognised up to the maximum carrying value of goodwill at 30 June 2007 amounting to $1,480,969.

The property lease is a non-cancellable lease with a five-year term, with rent payable monthly in advance. Contingent rental provisions within the lease agreement require the minimum lease payments shall be increased by the lower of CPI or 5.0% per annum. An option exists to renew the lease at the end of the five-year term for an additional term of five years. The lease allows for subletting of all lease areas.

Accounting Policies

Segment revenues and expenses are those directly attributable to the segments and include any joint revenue and expenses where a reasonable basis of allocation exists. Segment assets include all assets used by a segment and consist principally of cash, receivables, inventories, intangibles and property, plant and equipment, net of allowances and accumulated depreciation and amortisation. While most such assets can be directly attributed to individual segments, the carrying amount of certain assets used jointly by two or more segments is allocated to the segments on a reasonable basis. Segment liabilities consist principally of payables, employee benefits, accrued expenses, provisions and borrowings. Segment assets and liabilities do not include deferred income taxes.

Intersegment Transfers

Segment revenues, expenses and results include transfers between segments. The prices charged on intersegment transactions are the same as those charged for similar goods to parties outside of the consolidated group at an arm's length. These transfers are eliminated on consolidation.

Business and Geographical Segments

Business segments g p g

Note 37 Financial Instruments

  • (a) Financial Risk Management

The group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, local money market instruments, short-term investments, accounts receivable and payable, loans to and from subsidiaries, bills, leases, preference shares, and derivatives.

The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for group operations. Derivatives are used by the group for hedging purposes. Such instruments include forward exchange and currency option contracts and interest rate swap agreements. The group does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments.

(ii) Financial Risks

The main risks the group is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, liquidity risk, credit risk and price risk.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is reviewed by executives on a regular basis to determine whether the company has a material exposure. Under the current economic conditions, the executives view that there is no immediate need to establish a mixture of fixed and floating debt rate. The executives are committed to minimising any interest rate risk through continual assessment of market volatility.

Liquidity risk

The group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate unutilised borrowing facilities are maintained.

Credit risk

The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements.

Credit risk for derivative financial instruments arises from the potential failure by counterparties to the contract to meet their obligations. The credit risk exposure to forward exchange contracts and interest rate swaps is the net fair value of these contracts as disclosed in Note 37.

The consolidated group does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the consolidated group.

(ii) Interest Rate Risk

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 02 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2007

(iii) Net Fair Values The net fair values of:

  • Term receivables and government and fixed interest securities and bonds are determined by discounting the cash flows, at the market interest rates of similar securities, to their present value.

  • Listed investments have been valued at the quoted market bid price at balance date adjusted for transaction costs expected to be incurred. For unlisted investments where there is no organised financial market the net fair value has been based on a reasonable estimation of the underlying net assets or discounted cash flows of the investment

  • Debentures, bills of exchange and promissory notes which are traded on organised financial markets, are based on the quoted market offer price at balance date adjusted for transaction costs expected to be incurred.

  • Other loans and amounts due are determined by discounting the cash flows, at market interest rates of similar borrowings to their present value.

  • Forward exchange contracts are the recognised unrealised gain or loss at balance date determined from the current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturities.

  • Interest rate swaps are the present value of the future net interest cash flows.

  • Other assets and other liabilities approximate their carrying value.

No financial assets and financial liabilities are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form other than listed investments, forward exchange contracts and interest rate swaps.

Financial assets where the carrying amount exceeds net fair values have not been written down as the consolidated group intends to hold these assets to maturity.
