Principal Activities and Significant Changes in Nature of Activities
The principal activities of the consolidated group during the financial year were:
-
manufacturing and marketing of paint brushes, paint rollers, painters tools and spray guns;
-
manufacturing, marketing and exporting of Treco garden sheds, outdoor storage systems, aviaries and pet homes;
-
manufacturing and marketing of scaffolding and related equipment; and
-
hiring of scaffolding and related products to the building and construction industry.
Manufacturing and marketing of cleaning and personal care products ceased during the period as a result of the orderly wind-down of H & O Products Pty Ltd at 31 October 2010.
Operating Results and Review of Operations for the year
Operating Results
The consolidated group revenue for the financial year ended 30 June 2011 was $30,588,286 and was down 4.5% from the prior year (2010: $32,014,001). The consolidated net result after tax attributable to members of the parent entity was a loss of $2,834,583 which was a 63% improvement on the prior year (2010: loss of $7,701,347). This was largely due to the significant amount of one-off non-recurring costs incurred in 2010 which were predominately associated with the impairment of the consumer products division, H&O Products Pty Ltd, and property devaluations. Further discussion of the Group's operations during the year now follows:
Review of Operations
(i) Paint Applications Division
Trading conditions were generally difficult for the Paint Applications division in 2011, particularly in the latter half of the year with a wide range of retail customers reporting low sales for the period. The introduction of new participants in the home improvement sector is expected to provide benefits in 2012. Trading terms have been renewed with a range of customer groups to provide future growth and stability within this division.
(ii) Treco Garden Sheds Division
The Treco Garden Sheds division was restructured during the year. The distribution network was expanded and the Group's retail alliances were closed. The division's focus for 2012 will be continued growth of its distribution network, improvement in manufacturing processes and new product innovation. The high Australian dollar continues to impact on export sales, particularly in the UK.
(iii) Scaffold Division
The Scaffold division management changes over the last two years have brought a renewed focus on quality and customer service. The division experienced a downturn in the building and construction industry in the latter half of the year. Overall division performance for the year was an improvement on the prior year result. The division has a strong export base and is focused on developing new relationships in the international market. Performance of the division's manufacturing operation in China has improved with an emphasis on quality, cost and efficiencies following the appointment of a new general manager in February 2011.
(iv) PT Ace Oldfields Indonesia
Export sales growth was slower than anticipated, associated with the volatility in the US economy. New opportunities have been identified to develop new customers and products which are expected to provide benefits to this business in 2012. Local sales continue to increase with new domestic projects expected to provide additional growth for this business.
(v) Property
A contract for the sale of land and buildings at Archerfield in Queensland was exchanged on 19 April 2011 and was settled on 15 July 2011. A contract for the sale of land and buildings at St Marys, New South Wales was also exchanged on 7 September 2011 with settlement expected by 30 September 2011. Consideration from the disposal of these two properties will be used to reduce the overall debt of the Group.
(vi) H & O Consumer Products Division
This discontinued division delivered a negative result for the period. The wind down of this division was completed in October 2010. All finished goods and assets were sold and all outstanding commitments honoured.
Financial Position
The net assets of the consolidated group have decreased by $469,138 from 30 June 2010 to $2,694,537 at 30 June 2011 . This decrease is largely due to the following factors:
-
inventory impairments of $289,814 relating to the Scaffold division;
-
property devaluations of $393,354 relating to the property at St Marys, New South Wales;
-
asset and liability reductions associated with the orderly wind-down of H&O Products Pty Ltd and Backyard Installations Pty Ltd;
The directors believe that the group is in a stable financial position and will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable.

Changes in controlled entities and divisions:
(i) The consumer products division ceased trading during the year as a result of the orderly wind-down of H&O Products Pty Ltd in October 2010.
(ii) The Group disposed of its interest in Tangshan Hengfeng Paint Accessories Co in December 2010, resulting in a net loss of $751,358 during the year.
(iii) Retail alliances in the Treco Sheds division were wound down during the year, contributing a net loss of $839,806 during the year.
Dividends Paid or Recommended
Since the start of the financial year, no dividends have been paid or declared.
Events after the Reporting Period
On 15 July 2011, the contract for sale of the property at Archerfield QLD was settled. Consideration received in relation to this sale was used to reduce the overall debt of the Group.
On 28 August 2011, the company signed an agreement with its bankers for a finance facility for a further 11 month period.
On 7 September 2011, an unconditional contract for the sale of the property at St Marys NSW was exchanged and is expected to be settled by 30 September 2011. Consideration of $2.2 million will be used to reduce the overall debt of the Group.
There were no other significant events occurring after balance date.
Future Developments, Prospects and Business Strategies
To further improve the consolidated group’s profit and maximise shareholder wealth, the following developments are intended to be implemented in the near future:
(i) Focus on reduction in overall debt for the Group through the sale of the investment property at St Marys, New South Wales.
(ii) Renewed focus on the Group's core business and customer service to drive marketing and sales.

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES DIRECTORS' REPORT
REMUNERATION REPORT
Remuneration policy
The remuneration policy of Oldfields Holdings Limited has been designed to align key management personnel 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 key management personnel 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 key management personnel of the consolidated group is as follows:
• The remuneration policy is required to be developed by the remuneration committee and approved by the Board after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants.
• All key management personnel 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 key management personnel packages annually by reference to the consolidated group’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors.
The performance of key management personnel is measured against criteria agreed bi-annually 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 results leading to long-term growth in shareholder wealth.
Key management personnel 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 key management personnel is valued at the cost to the company and expensed.
The Board's 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.
Key management personnel are also entitled and encouraged to participate in the employee share and option arrangements to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests.
Options granted under the arrangement do not carry dividend or voting rights. Each option is entitled to be converted into one ordinary share once the interim or final financial report has been disclosed to the public and is valued using the Black-Scholes methodology.
Key management personnel subject to the arrangement are subject to a policy governing the use of external hedging arrangements. Such personnel are prohibited from entering into hedge arrangements, i.e. put options on unvested shares and options which form part of their remuneration package. Terms of employment signed by such personnel contain details of such restrictions.
Performance-based Remuneration
The key performance indicators (KPIs) are set annually, with a certain level of consultation with key management personnel. The measures are specifically tailored to the area each individual 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 Group’s goals and shareholder wealth, before the KPI’s 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.
No performance-based remuneration has been paid during or since the end of the financial year.
Employment Details of Members of Key Management Personnel and Other Executives
The following table provides employment details of persons who were, during the financial year, members of key management personnel of the consolidated group, and to the extent different, among the five Group executives or company executives receiving the highest remuneration.

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011
These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Oldfields Holdings Limited and Controlled Entities (the “consolidated group” or “Group”). The separate financial statements of the parent entity, Oldfields Holdings Limited, have been presented within this financial report in note 2.
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Accounting Interpretations), other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
The financial report was authorised for issue on 20 September 2011 by the directors of the Group.
Going Concern
The Group made a loss for the year ended 30 June 2011 of $3,021,043 (2010: $8,650,248) and had a net cash outflow from operating activities of $1,166,033 (2010: $984,376). The Group has also reported a net current asset deficiency of $9,177,965 (2010: $13,652,041) which is due to the classification of bank loans as current in accordance with the requirements of AASB101 Presentation of Financial Statements (refer note 24). These conditions give rise to material uncertainty which may cast doubt over the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
Notwithstanding the above, the directors' believe that the Group will continue to operate as a going concern for the following reasons:
� Negotiations to renew the finance facility commenced in June 2011 and hence the debts under the previous facility, which expired on 31 July 2011, became current at the end of the financial year. A new facility agreement was re-negotiated with the Group's bankers on 28 August 2011 for a period until 31 July 2012;
- Treco Garden Sheds division has been restructured to reduce fixed costs and overheads, providing ongoing savings;
� The sale of the property held at Archerfield, Queensland was settled on 15 July 2011 and a contract for the sale of the property held at St Marys, New South Wales was exchanged on 7 September 2011 with settlement expected by 30 September 2011. The consideration from the sale of these properties will be used to reduce Group debt and ongoing finance costs;
-
The Paint Applications division has secured a major new customer and is expected to benefit from changes in the hardware market in Australia in the
-
coming twelve months;
� Redundancy and restructuring costs incurred during the financial year are not expected to recur;
-
The Group's debts are being paid as and when they fall due; and
-
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the financial year increased by $2,592,075 compared to the prior year.
Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount of liabilities that might result should the company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.
(a) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Oldfields Holdings Limited at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Oldfields Holdings Limited has the ability and right to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity’s activities.
Where controlled entities have entered or left the Group during the year, the financial performance of those entities is included only for the period of the year that they were controlled. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 19 to the financial statements.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the Consolidated Group have been eliminated in full on consolidation.
Non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are reported separately within the Equity section of the consolidated statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income. The non-controlling interests in the net assets comprise their interests at the date of the original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date.
Business Combinations
Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.
A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is attained whereby the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions).
When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.
All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the statement of comprehensive income.
The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.

OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED ABN: 92 000 307 988 AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(a) Principals of Consolidation (continued) Goodwill
Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum of:
(i) the consideration transferred;
(ii) any non-controlling interest; and
(iii) the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest;
over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial statements.
Fair value uplifts in the value of pre-existing equity holdings are taken to the statement of comprehensive income. Where changes in the value of such equity holdings had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income, such amounts are recycled to profit or loss. Included in the measurement of consideration transferred is any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or a liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value through the statement of comprehensive income unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.
All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the statement of comprehensive income.
The amount of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the Group holds less than a 100% interest will depend on the method adopted in measuring the non-controlling interest. The Group can elect in most circumstances to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value (full goodwill method) or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets (proportionate interest method). In such circumstances, the Group determines which method to adopt for each acquisition and this is stated in the respective notes to these financial statements disclosing the business combination.
Under the full goodwill method, the fair value of the non-controlling interest is determined using valuation techniques which make the maximum use of market information where available. Under this method, goodwill attributable to the non-controlling interests is recognised in the consolidated financial statements.
Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in investments in associates.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group's cash generating units or groups of cash generating units, representing the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored not larger than an operating segment. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill related to the entity disposed of. Changes in the ownership interests in a subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions and do not affect the carrying values of goodwill.
Discontinued Operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the consolidated entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately on the face of the statement of comprehensive income.
(b) Revenue and Other Income
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. When the inflow of consideration is deferred it is treated as the provision of financing and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
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 recognition relating to the provision of services is determined with reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period where the outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably. Stage of completion is determined with reference to the services performed to date as a percentage of total anticipated services to be performed. Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that related expenditure is recoverable.
Investment property revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
(c) 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 the income statement in the period in which they are incurred.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(d) Income Tax
The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income).
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are recognised outside profit or loss. Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled and their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.
Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where: (a) a legally enforceable right of set-off exists; and (b) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
Tax Consolidation
Oldfields Holdings Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. Each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such taxes are measured using the 'stand-alone taxpayer' approach to allocation. Current tax liabilities (assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in the subsidiaries are immediately transferred to the head entity.
The Group notified the Australian Taxation Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July 2003. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax funding arrangement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable by the group in proportion to their contribution to the Group's taxable income. Differences between the amounts of net tax assets and liabilities derecognised and the net amounts recognised pursuant to the funding arrangement are recognised as either a contribution by, or distribution to the head entity.
(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are reported within short-term borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position.
(f) 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.
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment.
(g) 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.
(h) Non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale Non-current assets and assets of disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. For noncurrent assets or assets of disposal groups to be classified as held for sale, they must be available for immediate sale in their present condition and their sale must be highly probable.
An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write down of the non-current assets and assets of disposal groups to fair value less costs to sell. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of a non-current assets and assets of disposal groups, but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised.
Non-current assets are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of assets held for sale continue to be recognised.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of disposal groups classified as held for sale are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position, in current assets. The liabilities of disposal groups classified as held for sale are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position, in current liabilities.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(i) Investments in Associates
Associates are companies in which the Group has significant influence through holding, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the voting power of the Group. Investments in associates are accounted for in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting, whereby the investment is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate company. In addition, the Group’s share of the profit or loss of the associate company is included in the Group’s profit or loss.
The carrying amount of the investment includes goodwill relating to the associate. Any discount on acquisition whereby the Group’s share of the net fair value of the associate exceeds the cost of investment is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.
Profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate.
When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. When the associate subsequently makes profits, the Group will resume recognising its share of those profits once its share of the profits equals the share of the losses not recognised.
Details of the Group’s investment in associates are shown at Note 18.
(j) Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Property
Freehold land and buildings are recorded at their fair value (being the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm's length transaction), based on periodic, but at least triennial, valuations by external independent valuers, less accumulated depreciation for buildings.
Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to a revaluation surplus 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 statement of comprehensive income. Each year the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset charged to the statement of comprehensive income and depreciation based on the asset’s original cost is transferred from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings.
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 and therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment. In the event the carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses are recognised either in profit or loss or as a revaluation decrease if the impairment losses relate to a revalued asset. A formal assessment of the recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present (refer to Note 1(q) for details of impairment).
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 asset's 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 statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straightline basis over the asset's useful life 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 | 2% |
| Leasehold improvements | 4 - 5% |
| Plant and equipment | 5 - 50% |
| Motor vehicles | 18 - 20% |
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
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 statement of comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.
(k) Investment Property
Investment properties are held to generate long-term rental yields. All tenant leases are on an arm's length basis. Investment properties are carried at fair value, determined annually. Changes to fair value are recorded in the income statement as other income.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(l) Other Intangibles
Patents and Trademarks
Patents and trademarks are recognised at cost of acquisition. Patents and trademarks have a finite life and are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Patents and trademarks are amortised over their useful life ranging from 5 to 10 years.
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 is expected to deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.
Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis based on the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.
(m) 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.
Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.
(n) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end of the reporting period. 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.
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. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wage increases and the probability that the employee may satisfy vesting requirements. Those cashflows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cashflows.
(o) 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, the loans or borrowings are classified as non-current.
(p) 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 is 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 lease term.
\ (q) Financial Instruments
Recognition and Initial Measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs except where the instrument is classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss’ in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement
Finance instruments are subsequently measured at either of fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or cost.
Amortised cost is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method.
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 arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in profit or loss.
The Group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are classified at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ when they are either held for trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a Group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in the profit or loss.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(p) Financial Instruments (continued) (ii) 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 subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Loans and receivables are included in current assets, where they are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
(iii) Held-to-maturity Investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the Group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets where they are expected to mature more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other investments are classified as current assets.
Available-for-sale financial assets
(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.
They are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in such fair value (i.e. gains or losses) recognised in other comprehensive income (except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses). When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss pertaining to that asset previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified into profit or loss.
Available-for-sale financial assets are included in non-current assets where they are expected to be sold more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other financial assets are classified as current assets.
(v) Financial Liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Derivative Instruments
The Group designates certain derivatives as either:
(i) hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or a firm commitment (fair value hedge); or (ii) hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges). At the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the group's risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions is documented.
Assessments, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items are also documented.
- (i) Fair value hedge
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income, together with any changes in the fair value of hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable to the hedged risk.
(ii) Cash flow hedge The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is deferred to a hedge reserve in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income.
Amounts accumulated in the hedge reserve in equity are transferred to the income statement in the periods when the hedged item will affect profit or loss.
Impairment
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses 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 profit or loss. Also, any cumulative decline in fair value previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss at this point.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in the profit or loss.
(q) Impairment of Assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another Standard (e.g. in accordance with the revaluation model in AASB 116). Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard.
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.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(r) 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 year-end 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 profit or loss, 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 other comprehensive income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the profit or loss.
-
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 exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period;
-
— 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.
Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with functional currencies other than Australian dollars are recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.
(s) 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 Taxation Office (ATO).
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers.
(t) Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
Where the Group has retrospectively applied an accounting policy, made a retrospective restatement of items in the financial statements or reclassified items in its financial statements, an additional statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed. Refer to Note 37
(u) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
Management evaluates estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best reasonably 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 and Judgements
(i) Impairment
The Group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events specific to the Group that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions.
(ii) Provision for Impairment of Receivables
The provision for impairment of receivables assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the ageing of receivables, historical collection rates and specific knowledge of the individual debtors financial position.
(iii) Provision for impairment of inventories
The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of the provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that affect inventory obsolescence.
(iv) Estimation of useful lives of assets
The consolidated entity determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and definite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down.
(v) New, Revised or Amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations Adopted
The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
Any significant impact on the accounting policies of the consolidated entity from the adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations are disclosed in the relevant accounting policy.

Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(v) New, Revised or Amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations Adopted (continued)
The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any impact on the financial performance or position of the consolidated entity. The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the consolidated entity:
AASB 2 Share-based Payment Transactions - amendments for Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions
The consolidated entity has applied the amendments to AASB 2 from 1 July 2010. The amendments clarified the scope of AASB 2 by requiring an entity that receives goods or services in a share-based payment arrangement to account for those goods or services no matter which entity in the consolidated entity settles the transaction, and no matter whether the transaction is settled in shares or cash.
Interpretation 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments
The consolidated entity has applied Interpretation 19 from 1 July 2010. The interpretation clarified that equity instruments issued to a creditor to extinguish a financial liability qualifies as consideration paid. The equity instruments issued are measured at their fair value, or if not reliably measured, at the fair value of the liability extinguished, with any gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.
AASB 2009-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project
The consolidated entity has applied AASB 2009-5 amendments from 1 July 2010. The amendments result in some accounting changes for presentation, recognition or measurement purposes, while some amendments that relate to terminology and editorial changes had no or minimal effect on accounting. The main changes were:
AASB 101 'Presentation of Financial Statements' - classification is not affected by the terms of a liability that could be settled by the issuance of equity instruments at the option of the counterparty;
AASB 107 'Statement of Cash Flows' - only expenditure that results in a recognised asset can be classified as a cash flow from investing activities; AASB 117 'Leases' - removal of specific guidance on classifying land as a lease;
AASB 118 'Revenue' - provides additional guidance to determine whether an entity is acting as a principal or agent; and
AASB 136 'Impairment of Assets' - clarifies that the largest unit permitted for allocating goodwill, acquired in a business combination, is the operating segment as defined in AASB 8 'Operating Segments' before aggregation for reporting purposes.
AASB 2009-10 Amendments to AASB 132 - Classification of Rights Issues
The consolidated entity has applied AASB 2009-10 from 1 July 2010. The amendments clarified that rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of an entity's own equity instruments for a fixed amount in any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro-rata to all existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. The amendment therefore provides relief to entities that issue rights in a currency other than their functional currency from treating the rights as derivatives with fair value changes recorded in profit or loss.
AASB 2010-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project
The consolidated entity has applied AASB 2010-3 amendments from 1 July 2010. The amendments result in some accounting changes for presentation, recognition or measurement purposes, while some amendments that relate to terminology and editorial changes had no or minimal effect on accounting. The main changes were:
AASB 127 'Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements' and AASB 3 'Business Combinations' - clarifies that contingent consideration from a business combination that occurred before the effective date of revised AASB 3 is not restated; the scope of the measurement choices of noncontrolling interest is limited to when the rights acquired include entitlement to a proportionate share of net assets in the event of liquidation; requires an entity in a business combination to account for the replacement of acquiree's share-based payment transactions, unreplaced and voluntarily replaced, by splitting between consideration and post combination expenses.
- (w) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods
The AASB has issued new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods and which the Group has decided not to early adopt. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Group is as follows:
AASB 9: Financial Instruments [December 2010] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).
This Standard is applicable retrospectively and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, as well as recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments . The Group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements.
The key changes made to accounting requirements include:
-
─ simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;
-
─ simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives;
-
─ removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets;
-
─ removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised cost; ─ allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument;
-
─ requiring financial assets to be reclassified where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based on: (a) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and (b) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows;
-
─ requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in the other comprehensive income, except when that would create an accounting mismatch. If such a mismatch would be created or enlarged, the entity is required present all changes in fair value (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.
-
AASB 2010-6: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures on Transfers of Financial Assets [AASB 1 & AASB 7] (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011).
This Standard adds and amends disclosure requirements about transfers of financial assets, especially those in respect of the nature of the financial assets involved and the risks associated with them. Accordingly, this standard makes amendments to AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards; and AASB 7: Financial Instruments: Disclosures; establishing additional disclosure requirements in relation to transfers of financial assets.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(w) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods (continued)
- AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011).
This Standard removes the requirement for government-related entities to disclose details of all transactions with the government and other government-related entities and clarifies the definition of a ‘related party’ to remove inconsistencies and simplify the structure of the Standard. No changes are expected to materially affect the Group.
This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.
-
AASB 1053 Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards and AASB 2010-2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Reduced Disclosure Requirements [AASB 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 101, 102, 107, 108, 110, 111, 112, 116, 117, 119, 121, 123, 124, 127, 128, 131, 133, 134, 136, 137, 138, 140, 141, 1050 & 1052 and Interpretations 2, 4, 5, 15, 17, 127, 129 & 1052] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 July 2013) AASB 1053 establishes a revised differential financial reporting framework consisting of two tiers of financial reporting requirements for those entities preparing general purpose financial statements:
-
Tier 1: Australian Accounting Standards; and
-
Tier 2: Australian Accounting Standards - Reduced Disclosure Requirements.
Tier 2 of the framework comprises the recognition, measurement and presentation requirements of Tier 1, but contains significantly fewer disclosure requirements.
The following entities are required to apply Tier 1 reporting requirements (i.e. full IFRS):
-
for-profit private sector entities that have public accountability; and
-
the Australian Government and state, territory and local governments.
Since the Group is a for-profit private sector entity that has public accountability, it does not qualify for the reduced disclosure requirements for Tier 2 entities.
AASB 2010-2 makes amendments to Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations to give effect to the reduced disclosure requirements for Tier 2 entities. It achieves this by specifying the disclosure paragraphs that a Tier 2 entity need not comply with as well as adding specific ‘RDR’ disclosures.
- AASB 2009–12: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASBs 5, 8, 108, 110, 112, 119, 133, 137, 139, 1023 & 1031 and Interpretations 2, 4, 16, 1039 & 1052] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011).
This Standard makes a number of editorial amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of IFRSs by the IASB. The Standard also amends AASB 8 to require entities to exercise judgment in assessing whether a government and entities known to be under the control of that government are considered a single customer for the purposes of certain operating segment disclosures. The amendments are not expected to impact the Group.
-
AASB 2010-5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 101, 107, 112, 118, 119, 121, 132, 133, 134, 137, 139, 140, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 112, 115, 127, 132 & 1042] (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011). This Standard makes numerous editorial amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of IFRSs by the IASB. However, these editorial amendments have no major impact on the requirements of the respective amended pronouncements.
-
AASB 2010-4: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 1, AASB 7, AASB 101 & AASB 134 and Interpretation 13] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011)
This standard details numerous non-urgent but necessary changes to accounting standards arising from the IASB’s annual improvements project. Key changes include:
-
clarifying the application of AASB 108 prior to an entity’s first Australian Accounting Standard financial statements;
-
adding an explicit statement to AASB 7 that qualitative disclosures should be made in the context of the quantitative disclosures to better enable users to evaluate an entity’s exposure to risks arising from financial instruments;
-
amending AASB 101 to the effect that disaggregation of changes in each component of equity arising from transactions recognised in other comprehensive income is required to be presented, but is permitted to be presented in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes;
-
adding a number of examples to the list of events or transactions that require disclosure under AASB 134; and
-
making sundry editorial amendments to various Standards and Interpretations.
This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.
-
AASB 2010-7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010) [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 101, 102, 108, 112, 118, 120, 121, 127, 128, 131, 132, 136, 137, 139, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 2, 5, 10, 12, 19 & 127] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).
-
This standard makes amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations as a consequence of the issuance of AASB 9: Financial Instruments in December 2010. Accordingly, these amendments will only apply when the entity adopts AASB 9.
This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.
- AASB 2010-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets [AASB 112] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012).
This Standard makes amendments to AASB 112: Income Taxes.
The amendments brought in by this Standard introduce a more practical approach for measuring deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets when investment property is measured using the fair value model under AASB 140: Investment Property.
Under the current AASB 112, the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets depends on whether an entity expects to recover an asset by using it or by selling it. The amendments introduce a presumption that an investment property is recovered entirely through sale. This presumption is rebutted if the investment property is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale.
The amendments brought in by this Standard also incorporate Interpretation 121 into AASB 112. The amendments are not expected to impact the Group.

Note 12 Trade and Other Receivables (continued)
(a) Provision For Impairment of Receivables
Current trade and term receivables are non-interest bearing loans and generally on 30-day terms. A provision for impairment is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual trade or term receivable is impaired. These amounts have been included in the distribution expenses item in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Movement in the provision for impairment of receivables is as follows:

Credit risk
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counter party or group of counter parties. The class of assets described as trade and other receivables is considered to be the main source of credit risk related to the Group.
The following table details the Group’s trade and other receivables exposed to credit risk (prior to collateral and other credit enhancements) with ageing analysis and impairment provided for thereon. Amounts are considered as ‘past due’ when the debt has not been settled with the terms and conditions agreed between the Group and the customer or counter party to the transaction. Receivables that are past due are assessed for impairment by ascertaining solvency of the debtors and are provided for where there are specific circumstances indicating that the debt may not be fully repaid to the Group.
The balances of receivables that remain within initial trade terms (as detailed in the table) are considered to be of high credit quality.

(b) Impairment Losses
The total impairment loss recognised in the statement of comprehensive income during the prior period amounted to $975,756 which predominately related to H&O Products Pty Ltd and has been included in loss from discontinued operations in the statement of comprehensive income.
The impairment losses reversed in the current year relate to assets previously held by H&O Products Pty Ltd and were impaired in the prior year based on the assumption that they could not be used or sold. However, during the year these assets were transferred to other divisions within the Group and the impairment reversed.
The recoverable amount of the cash generating unit has been determined to be its fair value less costs to sell. The fair value was determined with reference to an active market, where the market price of similar equipment and of a similar age was used as the benchmark. Costs for selling the equipment were estimated based on the company's prior history of selling similar equipment.

(c) On 26 August 2011, the Group renewed the agreement with its bankers for a further 11 month period.

(b) Options
(i) There have been no options issued or exercised during the year.
- (ii) For information relating to share options issued to key management personnel during the financial year refer to Note 7.
(c) Capital Management
Management control the capital of the Group in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the shareholders with adequate returns and ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern.
The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.
The group is subject to financing covenants as detailed in Note 24(b)
Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group's financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues.
There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior year. This strategy is to identify opportunities to reduce the Group’s gearing ratio. The gearing ratios for the year ended 30 June 2011 and 30 June 2010 are as follows:
| Note 23, 24 11 Total capital Net debt Total borrowings Total equity Less cash and cash equivalents Gearing ratio |

Note 30 Operating Segments
Segment Information
Identification of reportable segments
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.
The Group is managed primarily on the basis of product category and service offerings since the diversification of the Group's operations inherently have notably different risk profiles and performance assessment criteria. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.
Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics and are also similar with respect to the following:
-
the products sold and/or services provided by the segment;
-
the manufacturing process;
-
the type or class of customer for the products or service;
-
the distribution method; and
-
any external regulatory requirements.
Types of products and services by segment
-
(i) Wholesale/retail The wholesale/retail segment manufactures and markets paint brushes, paint rollers, painters tools, spray guns, Treco garden sheds, outdoor storage systems, aviaries and pet homes.
-
(ii) Scaffolding
The scaffolding segment manufactures and markets scaffolding and related equipment. In addition, this segment is engaged in hiring scaffolding and related products to the building and construction industry.
- (iii) Consumer products
The consumer products segment manufactures and distributes cleaning and personal care products. This segment ceased operation during the year with the orderly wind down of H&O Products Pty Ltd in October 2010.
- (iv) Property
The property segment manages investment properties held by the Group.

Note 30 Operating Segments (continued)
Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
(a) Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group.
(b) Inter-segment transactions
All inter-segment transactions are eliminated on consolidation for the Group's financial statements.
Corporate charges are allocated to reporting segments based on the segment's overall proportion of revenue generation within the Group. The Board of Directors believes this is representative of likely consumption of head office expenditure that should be used in assessing segment performance and cost recoveries.
(c) Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to that segment that receives the majority of economic value from that asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
(d) Segment liabilities Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables and certain direct borrowings.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management
The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk consisting of interest rate risk and foreign currency risk.
-
(a) Credit risk
-
Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group.
Credit risk is managed through the maintenance of procedures (such procedures include the utilisation of systems for the approval, granting and renewal of credit limits, regular monitoring of exposures against such limits and monitoring of the financial stability of significant customers and counterparties), ensuring to the extent possible, that customers and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness. Such monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment. Depending on the division within the Group, credit terms are generally 30 to 45 days from the end of month.
Credit Risk Exposures
The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at the end of the reporting period, excluding the value of any collateral or other security held is equivalent to the carrying value and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the statement of financial position. Credit risk also arises through the provision of financial guarantees, as approved at Board level, given to parties securing the liabilities of certain subsidiaries.
Collateral held by the Group securing receivables is detailed in Note 12.
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties. Details with respect to credit risk of Trade and Other Receivables is provided in Note 12.
Trade and other receivables that are neither past due or impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. Aggregates of such amounts are as detailed at Note 12.
| Note Cash and cash equivalents 11 |
2011 $ 2010 $ 757,753 316,776 Consolidated Group |
|---|---|
| 757,753 316,776 |
- (b) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group manages this risk through the following mechanisms:
-
preparing forward looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities;
-
monitoring undrawn credit facilities;
-
maintaining a reputable credit profile; and
-
managing credit risk related to financial assets.
The tables below reflect an undiscounted contractual maturity analysis for financial liabilities. The bank does however maintain the right to review the facilities annually. The next annual review date is 31 July 2012. Financial guarantee liabilities are treated as payable on demand since the Group has no control over the timing of any potential settlement of the liabilities.
Cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may therefore differ from that disclosed. The timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflect the earliest contractual settlement dates and do not reflect management’s expectations that banking facilities will be rolled forward.

Certain financial assets have been pledged as security for debt and their realisation into cash may be restricted subject to terms and conditions attached to the relevant debt contracts. Refer to Note 24 for further details.
(c) Market Risk
(i) Interest rate risk
Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments.
Interest rate risk is managed using a mix of fixed and floating rate debt.
(ii) Foreign exchange risk
The board and senior management regularly monitor foreign currency movements and has undertaken to use hedging contracts where appropriate to the value of up to 100% of it's US dollar requirements over a maximum 90-day period. The board reviews this regularly after consultation with market advisors and it's bank.
Sensitivity Analysis
The following table illustrates sensitivities to the Group’s exposures to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and commodity and equity prices. The table indicates the impact on how profit and equity values reported at balance date would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variable that management considers to be reasonably possible. These sensitivities assume that the movement in a particular variable is independent of other variables.

Note 35 Financial Risk Management (continued)
Net Fair Values
Fair value estimation
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the following table and can be compared to their carrying values as presented in the statement of financial position. Fair values are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction.
Fair values derived may be based on information that is estimated or subject to judgment, where changes in assumptions may have a material impact on the amounts estimated. Areas of judgment and the assumptions have been detailed below. Where possible, valuation information used to calculate fair value is extracted from the market, with more reliable information available from markets that are actively traded. In this regard, fair values for listed securities are obtained from quoted market bid prices. Where securities are unlisted and no market quotes are available, fair value is obtained using discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants.
Differences between fair values and carrying values of financial instruments with fixed interest rates are due to the change in discount rates being applied by the market since their initial recognition by the Group. Most of these instruments which are carried at amortised cost (i.e. term receivables, held-to-maturity assets, loan liabilities) are to be held until maturity and therefore the net fair value figures calculated bear little relevance to the Group.

Restatement of prior year comparatives
(a) Reclassification of amounts relating to discontinued operations
The prior year comparatives have been restated to reclassify amounts relating to operations which were discontinued during the year. In addition, revenue previously disclosed as other income relating to scaffold hire has been reclassified as revenue due to the fact that it is earned in the normal course of business.
The net effect of this adjustment on each of the line items affected is as follows:
| Consolidated statement of financial performance at the end of the earliest comparative period Revenue Cost of sales Gross profit Other income Distribution expenses Marketing expenses Occupancy expenses Administrative expenses Impairment expenses Loss on remeasurement of equity investment due to business combination Loss on revaluation of investment property Finance costs Share of net profits of associates Loss before income tax Income tax benefit (expense) Loss from continuing operations Loss for the year from discontinued operations after tax Loss for the year |

(b) Correction of error in classification of borrowings
Non-current bank borrowings have been reclassified as current in the prior year due to a timing issue in relation to the renewal of the Group's finance facilities and to ensure compliance with Australian Accounting Standards. Under AASB101 Presentation of Financial Statements , unless there is an "unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period", all borrowings must be disclosed as current in the statement of financial position. As at 30 June 2010, the Group was in the process of renegotiating the terms of its finance facility and a formal offer had not yet been received from the bank. As a result, this did not satisfy the requirements under AASB101 and the borrowings should have been classified as current in the 30 June 2010 financial report.
The net effect of this adjustment on each of the line items affected is as follows:
| 2010 | 2010 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | $ | |
| Reported | Adjustment | Restated | |
| Consolidated statement of financial position at the end of the earliest comparative period | |||
| Current borrowings | 3,188,506 | 16,078,323 | 19,266,829 |
| Non-current borrowings | 18,303,166 | (16,078,323) | 2,224,843 |
There was no impact on balances for the financial year ended 30 June 2009 and therefore a third balance sheet is not considered necessary.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED
Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Oldfields Holdings Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2011, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies, other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity comprises the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements , that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards .
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .

The financial report does not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the consolidated entity not continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
The Board of Directors of Oldfields Holdings Limited is committed to high standards of corporate governance and adopts wherever possible the principles outlined in the Corporate Governance Principles and Best Practice Recommendations with 2010 amendments, published by the ASX Corporate Governance Council.
The recommendations are written in a principles based fashion and individual boards are able to choose whether to follow the recommended practices or to adopt other practices that are better suited to the individual circumstances of the Group.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Principle 2. STRUCTURE THE BOARD TO ADD VALUE
The Board currently has four directors, comprising two non-executive directors, including the chairperson, and two executive directors.
The Board has adopted the following principles:
-
The same individual should not exercise the roles of chairperson and chief executive officer;
-
The Board should not comprise a majority of executive directors; and
-
The Board should comprise persons with a broad range of skills and experience appropriate to the needs of the Group.
Recommendation 2.1 – Majority of the Board should be independent directors.
Independent directors are those who are independent of management and free of any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with, or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with, the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgment.
In assessing the independence of directors, an independent director is a non-executive director and:
-
Is not a substantial shareholder, as defined in section 9 of the Corporations Act, of the Group or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the Group;
-
Has not within the last three years been employed in an executive capacity by the Group or another group member, and there has not been a period of at least three years between ceasing such employment and serving on the Board;
-
Has not within the last three years been a principal of a material professional advisor or a material consultant to the Group or another group member, or an employee materially associated with the service provided; and
-
Is not a material supplier or customer of the Group or other group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer;
At the date of this report only the Chairperson is an independent director.
The following directors do not meet the independence criteria listed above:
-
William Lewis Timms: appointed 18[th] December 2009, currently a non-executive director and substantial shareholder;
-
Christopher Charles Hext: appointed 29[th] June 2001, resigned 8[th] July 2011, formerly a non-executive director and substantial shareholder;
-
Christopher Giles: appointed 24[th] September 2010, currently an executive director; and
-
Ray Titman: appointed 23[rd] July 2010, currently an executive director.
The board manages the risk of having a majority of non-independent directors through the provision of a well-qualified independent Chairperson, restrictions on trading in shares, restrictions on related party transactions, a close relationship with the principal provider of debt funding and a strong independent audit with a focus on controls.
Recommendation 2.2 – The Chair should be an Independent Director.
The current Chair, Julie Garland McLellan is an independent director.
Recommendation 2.3 – The Chair and the CEO should not be the same person.
The duties and responsibilities of the Chair and Chief Executive Officer are separate and each position is held by a different individual.
Recommendation 2.4 – The Board should establish a Nomination Committee.
Given the size and requirements of the Group, the Board has decided that a nomination committee is not required at this point in time. At present all members of the Board consider the composition of the Board and appointment of new directors.
Recommendation 2.5 – Disclose the process for evaluation of the performance of the Board, its committees and individual directors.
The Board has undergone a significant change in composition during the reporting period and has not completed a formal evaluation process within that period. A formal evaluation will be undertaken as a matter of course in 2012. The Chairperson performs an informal evaluation of individual directors and also of each board meeting. During the course of the year the following meetings were held and attended:

Recommendation 3.5 - Provide information recommended in the Guide on Principal 3.
A copy of the Code of Conduct can be obtained from the Corporate Governance section of the Group’s website.
Principle 4. THE BOARD SAFEGUARDS THE INTEGRITY OF FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer state, in writing, to the Board that the Group’s financial reports present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the Group’s financial position and operational results and are in accordance with relevant accounting standards.
Recommendation 4.1 – the Board should establish an Audit Committee.
The Board has an Audit Committee, which:
-
Has two members who are non-executive directors;
-
Has a written charter which can be obtained from the Corporate Governance section of the Group’s website; and
-
Includes members who are all financially literate.
Details of the members are disclosed in the Director’s Report.
The Board recognises that an independent audit committee is an important feature of good corporate governance.
Recommendation 4.2 – The audit committee should be structured so that it consists only of non-executive directors, consists of a majority of independent directors, is chaired by an independent chair, who is not chair of the board, and has at least three members.
The Audit Committee:
-
Consists only of non-executive directors, however all directors are entitled to receive the papers of the committee and to attend meetings of the committee and to meet with the auditors;
-
Is chaired by an independent chairperson. It is recommended that the Chairperson of the Audit Committee is not the Chairperson of the Board. In the case of Oldfields Holdings Limited, there are only two non-executive directors on the Board. One is Chairperson of the Board and resides in Sydney and the other is a substantial shareholder and resides in Perth. The Board has determined that given the need for the Chairperson of the Audit Committee to work closely with the auditors, it is more appropriate for the most independent and locally residing director to take this role. The Board reviews committee composition as changes to the Board occur and will review this arrangement at such times in the future.
-
Has two members. Given the size and structure of the Board, as discussed in Recommendation 2.1, the Board feels that two members both of whom are financially literate, is sufficient at this time.
The risk with a small committee is that the members will lack the diversity to raise and recognise issues. The risk with having the Chairperson of the Board being Chairperson of the audit committee is that there is a lack of independent oversight due to the concentration of power and information in one person. This risk is managed through specific working arrangements with the auditors having access to the full board at any time upon their request and through ensuring that the Chairperson of the Board and audit committee is a well-qualified independent director. It is intended to review this arrangement and adopt the recommended practice if and when the board composition changes.

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer are required to state in writing to the board that the Group’s risk management and internal compliance and control system is operating effectively and efficiently in all material aspects.
In March 2011 the Board changed its formal reporting requirement such that each line of business and the corporate head office are required to disclose to the board at each regular meeting a statement regarding the level and nature of the key risks facing the business.
Recommendation 7.3 – The Board should disclose whether it has received assurance from the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent) and the Chief Financial Officer (or equivalent) that the declaration provided in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that the system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks.

RISK MANAGEMENT STATEMENT
1. Introduction
This statement provides an overview of the Group's risk management policies and internal compliance and control systems in accordance with Principle 7 of the ASX Principles of Good Corporate Governance.
2. Responsibility
The Board of Directors are responsible for oversight on a regular basis of the Group's procedures and risk management policies. The responsibility of the Board is codified under the Board Charter, which is available on the Group’s website. The Group also has an Audit Committee, the responsibilities of which are documented in the Audit Committee Charter which is also available on the Group’s website.
3. Risk Management Monitoring
The Board has implemented a combination of internal policies and procedures and use of external audits to monitor risk management and its effectiveness.
3.1. Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's)
The Board has implemented risk management policies covering areas of business risk such as:
-
Occupational Health and Safety;
-
Finance and Treasury;
-
Human Resources;
-
Asset Protection (insurance); and
-
Codes of Conduct.
The Policies referred to are regularly reviewed and an internal mechanism exists whereby the Board and committee members have access to these reports on an internal intranet site. The Board manages these risks appropriately with reference to identification, implementation and review of these risks and procedures.
3.2. External Audits
The external audit of the Group is conducted annually. There is also a formal review at least once every year. Both the audit and review are conducted by an external auditor.
The Group has an Occupational Health and Safety Committee which has received training and certification by external OH&S providers.
The Group engages with qualified external advisors annually in relation to asset protection. Where possible the Board adopts the most practical and affordable insurance policies suitable to protect major assets of the Group.
In general an external qualified auditor and or valuers are engaged by the Board in determining large asset values on acquisition of assets. An external valuation is obtained to determine and verify carrying values of investment property by an external independent registered property valuer at least every three years.
3.3. Risk Management Statements
The integrity of the Group's financial reports relies on sound business and risk control systems.
Annually, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Group Financial Controller are required to sign a Risk Management Statement that is provided to the Audit Committee in writing.
The CEO and CFO sign a statement regarding the adequacy of financial controls in accordance with section 295a of the Corporations Act 2001.
The Board requires management to report on the key business risks for each area of the business at each Board meeting.
3.4 Internal Audit
Given the Group's size, an internal auditor is not practical. In addition the presence of executive directors on the Board allows for detailed oversight of risks within each business by managers who are familiar with the risk environment but not directly involved in the management of that particular business.
57
OLDFIELDS HOLDINGS LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 02 000 307 988
RISK MANAGEMENT STATEMENT
3.5 External Covenants
The Group has voluntarily associated itself with the following self-regulated authorities:
-
EOWA (Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Act): The Group reports annually on targets and policy to an external agency in regards to Equal Opportunity Guidelines and Policy within the work force. The Board receives and reviews this annually; and
-
Australian Packaging Covenant: The Group sets targets to reduce packaging waste and environmental impact of packaging waste. Targets are set and guidelines adopted and where possible administered by management. The Board reviews these targets annually.
The Group has also entered into an agreement with its principal lender (Westpac Banking Corporation) which provides external overview of financial risks by a representative of the Bank.
4. Formal Risk Management Practices
The Group operates a formal process for risk management which includes:
-
Risk Identification;
-
Risk Analysis;
-
Risk Evaluation;
-
Risk Mitigation;
-
Risk Monitoring and Reporting; and
-
• Risk Communication.
The risk management process meets appropriate professional standards and is reviewed annually by the Board of Directors. The process meets, but is not limited to the requirements of Principle 7 of the ASX Principles for Good Corporate Governance.
5. Risk Reporting and Communication
Risks are reported and their monitoring and management are communicated in accordance with the diagram below:
| Material Risks | General Reporting | Accountabilities |
|---|---|---|
| Board of Directors | ||
| Direct risk response or accept material risk |
Review and approve risk mitigation strategies or accept risk |
Oversight of framework and sufficiency of reporting |
| Chief Executive Officer (CEO) | ||
| Implement risk response or escalate to board of directors |
Review and approve risk reporting and mitigation strategies |
Oversight of corporate risks and adequacy of framework |
| Chief Financial Officer (CFO) | ||
| Recommend material risk escalation to CEO or Board of Directors |
Consolidate risk assessments and prepare summary reporting |
Implement and monitor ERM framework and ERM system |
| Finance Department | ||
| Identify and report material risks as they arise |
Prepare risk assessments in accordance with ERM framework |
Operationally manage risks and escalate issues |
Communication
Effective risk management is reliant on the timely and open communication of actual or potential risk events across the organisation. Free and frank communication is at the heart of the Group's risk management approach, and where the processes and accountabilities described in these standards may not support a suitably rapid response to any risk, then communication should be undertaken using whatever means achieve the best outcome for the Group.
For the avoidance of doubt, Oldfields Holdings Limited has a policy of ‘not shooting the messenger’ and encourages all staff to report risks of which they are aware.
