*Supplementary comments
Effective 17 December 2013, Orora Limited (the Company) and its controlled entities (collectively referred to as the Orora Group) demerged from Amcor Limited. The Company was listed as a separate standalone entity on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) on 18 December 2013 and the demerger was implemented on 31 December 2013.
Prior to the demerger, the Company and Amcor Limited were required to undertake an internal corporate restructure (Corporate Restructure). As a result of the Corporate Restructure, during the financial year certain flexible packaging assets and businesses were sold and several entities ceased to be and several entities became subsidiaries of the Company. In addition, a number of operating assets and liabilities were legally transferred between the Orora Group and entities within the Amcor Limited Group. The Corporate Restructure took place as at 31 October 2013.
As required for statutory reporting purposes, the statutory financial information for the Orora Group has been presented for the financial period ended 31 December 2014 and for the comparative period ended 31 December 2013. However, as a result of the Corporate Restructure, the statutory financial information for the comparative period does not give a view of the performance of the Orora Group as it is currently structured.
To assist shareholders in their understanding of the Orora Group’s business as it is now structured, pro forma financial information for the period ended 31 December 2013 is included in the table above and in the Company’s Investor Results Release (attached) released to the ASX on 24 February 2015. This pro forma information is prepared on the basis that the business as it is now structured was in effect for the period 1 July 2013 to 31 December 2013. In the preparation of the pro forma financial information, adjustments have been made to the Orora Group’s results, as presented in the Group’s segment note (refer note 2 of the interim financial report), to present a view of performance as if the Corporate Restructure had been effective from 1 July 2013. Additional adjustments have also been made in the presentation of pro forma financial information to reflect changes in operating and corporate costs associated with Orora Limited becoming a standalone listed entity as if those costs had been incurred from 1 July 2013.
The pro forma adjustments referred to above have been made on a basis consistent with those contemplated on page 46 of the Amcor Ltd demerger Scheme Booklet. A reconciliation between the pro forma financial information and the Orora Group segment information is included within the aforementioned Investor Results Release (as attached).
The reconciliations and the pro forma financial information have not been audited.

The last date for receipt of election notices for the DRP is 13 March 2015. Shares allotted under the DRP rank equally with existing fully paid ordinary shares of Orora Limited.

INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT
31 DECEMBER 2014
24 February 2015
Effective 17 December 2013 Orora Limited (the Company) and its controlled entities (collectively referred to as the Orora Group) demerged from Amcor Ltd. The Company was listed as a separate standalone entity on the Australia Securities Exchange on 18 December 2013 and the demerger was implemented on 31 December 2013. Prior to the demerger, the Company and Amcor Ltd were required to undertake an internal corporate restructure. As a result, the comparative financial information contained within the following Interim Financial Report does not reflect the financial performance of the Orora Group as it currently structured. To assist shareholders in their understanding of the Orora Group’s business as it is now currently structured, pro forma financial information for the six months to 31 December 2013 is contained in Orora’s Statement to the Australian Stock Exchange and Investor Results Release dated 24 February 2015.

These interim financial statements were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on 24 February 2015.
The accounting policies applied by the Group in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its Annual Report as at and for the year ended 30 June 2014 and the corresponding interim reporting period.
(b) Critical accounting judgements and estimates
The preparation of these interim financial statements requires management to exercise judgement and make estimates and assumptions in applying the Group’s accounting policies which impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities income and expenses.
Estimates and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The actual results may differ from these accounting estimates. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 30 June 2014.
Measurement of fair values
A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.
The Orora Group Treasury team performs the financial instrument valuations required for financial reporting purposes, including Level 3 fair values, if any, and report directly to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the Audit and Compliance Committee. Discussions of valuation processes and results are held with the CFO and Orora Group Treasury at least once every six months, in line with the Group’s half-yearly reporting requirements. Significant valuation issues are reported to the Audit and Compliance Committee.
When measuring fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into three levels as prescribed under accounting standards, with each of these levels indicating the reliability of the inputs used in determining the fair value. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
-
Level 1: fair value identified from quoted price traded in an active market for an identical asset or liability at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for assets is the last bid price.
-
Level 2: fair value determined using valuation techniques that maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. All significant inputs used in the valuation method are observable.
-
Level 3: one or more of the significant inputs used in determining fair value for the asset or liability is not based on observable market data (unobservable input).
The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period when the change has occurred.

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(c) New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2014 and have not been applied in preparing these interim financial statements. The following new or amended accounting standards and interpretations issued by the AASB have been identified as those which may have a material impact on the Group in current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments
AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial liabilities. With the recent amendments to the standard AASB 9 now also sets out new rules for hedge accounting. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2018 but is available for early adoption.
There will be no material impact on the Group’s accounting for financial assets or financial liabilities on adoption of the standard. The new hedging rules however will align hedge accounting more closely with the Group’s risk management practices and as a general rule, it will be easier to apply hedge accounting once the standard is adopted. The new standard also introduces expanded disclosure requirements and changes in presentation with regards to financial instruments.
The Group has not yet fully completed the analysis on how its own hedging arrangements would be affected by the new rules, and therefore has not yet decided whether to adopt any parts of AASB 9 early. In order to apply the new hedging rules, the Group would have to adopt AASB 9 and the consequential amendments to AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement in their entirety.
2. Segment Information
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group companies.
All operating segment results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker which has been identified as the Corporate Executive Team (CET). The CET consists of the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Group General Manager, Strategy. The CET provides the strategic direction and management oversight of the day to day activities of the Group in terms of monitoring results, providing approval for capital expenditure decisions and approving strategic planning for the Group.
(a) Description of reporting segments
The chief operating decision maker considers the business primarily from a geographic activity perspective and the reportable segments have therefore been identified as Australasia and North America. The following summary describes the operations of each reportable segment.
Orora Australasia
This segment focuses on the manufacture of fibre and beverage packaging products within Australia and New Zealand. The products manufactured by this segment includes glass bottles, beverage cans, wines closures, corrugated boxes, cartons and sacks and the manufacture of recycled paper.
Orora North America
This segment, predominantly located in North America, purchase, warehouses, sells and delivers a wide range of packaging and other related materials and services. The business also includes integrated corrugated sheet and box manufacturing equipment sales and capabilities.
Other
This segment includes the corporate function of the Group.

2. Segment Information (continued)
(b) Notes to and forming part of the segment information
The segment information is prepared in conformity with the accounting policies of the Group and the accounting standard AASB 8 Operating Segments .
Segment revenues, expenses and results include transfers between segments. Such transfers between segments are priced on an ‘arm’s length’ basis and are eliminated on consolidation. The revenue from external parties reported to the CET is measured in a manner consistent with that in the income statement.
The CET uses an adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) measure to assess the performance of the segments. This measure includes items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis, however the profit measure excludes the effects of individual significant non-recurring gains/losses.
Interest income and expenditure and other finance costs are not allocated to the segments, as this type of activity is driven by the central Orora Group Treasury function, which manages the funding position of the Group.
Comparative information has been presented in conformity with the identified reporting segments of the Group as at the reporting date in accordance with AASB 8.

3. 31 December 2013 Demerger
Effective 17 December 2013 Orora Limited (the ‘Company’) and its controlled entities (collectively referred to as the ‘Group’) demerged from Amcor Ltd. The Company was listed as a separate standalone entity on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) on 18 December 2013 and the demerger was implemented on 31 December 2013 with the Group repaying amounts owed to Amcor Ltd totalling $765.8 million pursuant to the Demerger Agreement.
Prior to the demerger, the Company and Amcor Ltd were required to undertake an internal corporate restructure. As part of the corporate internal restructure undertaken certain assets, liabilities and legal entities have been acquired and divested by the Orora Group during the comparative period.
Disposed businesses
The businesses disposed of under the corporate internal restructure are presented as a discontinued operation within the comparative period of this interim financial report. The flexible packaging assets transferred to Amcor under the internal restructure resulted in the recognition of a gain on sale of $29.8 million which was settled through intercompany loans between Orora and the Amcor Group upon demerger. This gain is presented within discontinued operations.
Acquired businesses
Under the internal corporate restructure, the acquisition of the North America business and certain closure and fibre packaging activities in the Australia and New Zealand region, was funded through a share issue. As the acquisition was undertaken at the direction and while under the common control of Amcor Ltd the transaction has been accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control and recognised within equity. As a consequence no acquisition accounting in the form of a purchase price allocation was undertaken and therefore the assets and liabilities have not been measured at fair value nor has any goodwill arisen.
All assets and liabilities acquired by the Orora Group have been recognised at values consistent with the carrying value of those assets and liabilities in Amcor Ltd’s accounts immediately prior to the restructure. As a result the movements in equity include the acquisition of the reserves and retained earnings of the acquired operations as at the date of the corporate restructure and the recognition of a demerger reserve of $132.9 million. The demerger reserve represents the difference between the deemed consideration established under the internal corporate restructure and the carrying value of the assets and liabilities acquired, under the common control transaction.
Impairment of assets
On demerger it was necessary to undertake an assessment of the carrying value of the Orora business and its Cash Generating Units (CGUs), as the fair value of the Orora business and its CGUs at the time of the demerger were influenced by the new listed entity, Orora Limited’s, cost of capital.
In performing the impairment assessment management identified a potential impairment in the Orora Fibre CGU, which forms part of the Australasia segment. Having identified the potential impairment management undertook a detailed assessment of the assets within this CGU to identify the specific assets impaired. As a result of this review an impairment of $209.8 million was recognised in the comparative period, refer note 4. The impairment losses have been recognised within ‘general and administrative’ expense in the income statement.
Refer to note 2 of the 30 June 2014 Annual Report for further information in respect of the Demerger transaction.

4. Significant items
Significant items are large, non-recurring gains or losses that are excluded from management’s assessment of profit because by their nature they could distort the Group’s underlying quality of earnings. They are typically gains or losses arising from events that are not considered part of the core operations of the business. These items are excluded to reflect performance in a consistent manner and are in line with how the business is managed and measured on a dayto-day basis.
Significant income items are included in ‘other income’, whilst significant expenditure items are included within ‘general and administration’ expense in the income statement. No significant items have been recognised in the current period.

The Group holds shares in itself as a result of shares purchased by the Orora Employee Share Trust (the ‘Trust’). The Trust was established on 20 February 2014 to manage and administer the Company’s responsibilities under the Group’s Employee Share Plans through acquiring, holding and transferring of shares, in the Company to participating employees. In respect of these transactions, at any point in time the Trust may hold ‘allocated’ and ‘unallocated’ shares.
Allocated shares represent those shares that have been purchased and awarded to employees under the CEO Grant. These shares are restricted in that the employee is unable to dispose of the shares for a period of up to five years (or otherwise determined by the Board). The Trust holds these shares on behalf of the employee until the restriction period is lifted at which time the Trust releases the shares to the employee.
Unallocated shares represent those shares that have been purchased by the Trust on-market to satisfy the potential future vesting of awards granted under the Groups Employee Share Plans, other than the CEO Grant. As the shares are unallocated they are identified and accounted for as treasury shares.

Franking Account
There are insufficient franking credits available for distribution from the franking account. Accordingly, the interim dividend for 2015 is unfranked (2014: interim and final dividend unfranked)
Conduit Foreign Income Account
For non-resident shareholders for Australian tax purposes, dividends will not be subject to Australian withholding tax to the extent that they are franked or sourced from the parent entity’s Conduit Foreign Income Account. For the interim dividend payable on 9 April 2015, 100% of the dividend to non-residents is sourced from the parent entity’s Conduit Foreign Income Account (2014: interim and final dividend nil). As a result, 100% of the interim dividend paid to a non-resident will not be subject to Australian withholding tax.
7. Share-based Payments
The Company did not have any share-based compensation schemes in place prior to the Group’s separation from Amcor Ltd on 31 December 2013.
During the six months to 31 December 2014 the Group established a new employee long term incentive plan, refer below for details of the new plan. Information pertaining to other Incentive Plans established by the Group subsequent to its separation from Amcor Ltd can be found in the Group’s 2014 Annual Report.
Long Term Incentive Rights Plan
During the six months to 31 December 2014 the Group established the Orora Limited Long Term Incentive Rights Plan (LTIRP). Under the LTIRP performance rights over shares in the Company may be issued to senior employees. The exact terms and conditions of each award are determined by the Directors of the Company at the time of grant. During the period 985,000 rights were issued under the plan.
The performance rights granted under the LTIRP give the employee the right to receive a share at a future point in time upon meeting specified vesting conditions that are both time-and-performance-based with no exercise price payable. The performance rights are granted at no consideration and carry no dividend entitlement or voting rights until they vest and are exercised into ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. Fifty per cent of the number of performance rights that ultimately vest are subject to a relative Total Shareholder Return test, the remaining fifty per cent is subject to meeting an EPS hurdle and the satisfaction of a Return on Average Fund Employed gateway.
Performance rights that have vested following the time and performance conditions will automatically be exercised and converted into ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. Unvested awards are forfeited if the employee voluntarily ceases employment or is dismissed for poor performance.

(1) For all borrowings, the fair values are not materially different to their carrying amounts since the interest payable on those borrowings is either close to current market rates or the borrowings are of a short-term nature. The carrying value of trade and other payables is considered a reasonable approximation of fair value.

8. Financial Instruments (continued)
Carrying amounts versus fair values (continued)
Derivative financial instruments are recognised and measured at fair value in the financial statements. The specific valuation techniques used to value the derivative financial instruments include:
-
Fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves;
-
The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date; and
-
The fair value of the commodity forward contracts is determined using the commodity price at the balance sheet date.
The fair value of available-for-sale financial instruments, which represents investments in companies listed on stock exchanges, was determined by reference to quoted share prices in an active market (classified as Level 1).
There were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2 for recurring fair value measurements during the year. The Group does not hold any Level 3 financial instruments (30 June 2014: nil).
9. Liquidity Management
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s financing policy is to fund itself for the long term by using debt instruments with a range of maturities and to ensure access to appropriate short term facilities. Orora Group Treasury aims to maintain flexibility within the funding structure through the use of bank overdrafts and bank loans.
Management monitors liquidity risk through maintaining minimum undrawn committed liquidity of at least A$175.0 million that can be drawn upon at short notice and regularly monitoring rolling forecasts of cash inflows and outflows in relation to the Group’s activities. This monitoring includes financial ratios to assess possible future credit ratings and headroom and takes into account the accessibility of cash and cash equivalents.
Financing arrangements
The committed and uncommitted standby arrangements and unused facilities of the Group are set out below:
| $ million | Committed Uncommitted Total Committed Uncommitted Total 31 December 2014 30 June 2014 |
|---|---|
| Financing facilities available: Bank overdrafts Loan facilities and term debt |

During the period the Group reduced the revolving multicurrency facility by A$100.0 million. As at 31 December 2014 the Group has a revolving multicurrency facility available consisting of two tranches of A$500.0 million each. A$360.0 million has been drawn under the first tranche of the facility which has a maturity of December 2016, while A$304.8 million has been drawn under the second tranche with a maturity of December 2018. The facility, which is unsecured, can be extended.

A contingent liability is a liability that is not sufficiently certain to qualify for recognition as a provision where uncertainty may exist regarding the outcome of future events.
Various entities in the Group are party to legal actions which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The actions are being defended and the Directors are of the opinion that provisions are not required as no material losses are expected to arise.

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Orora Limited (the Company), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flow statement for the half-year ended on that date, selected explanatory notes and the directors' declaration for Orora Limited (the consolidated entity). The consolidated entity comprises the company and the entities it controlled during that half-year.
Directors' responsibility for the half-year financial report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Australian Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2014 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of Orora Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
