Financial commentary
The Peet Group achieved an operating profit[2] and statutory profit after tax of $42.6 million for the year ended 30 June 2016, which represents an increase of 11% on FY15.
The result reflects the strong performance from the Group’s key east coast markets, in particular, Victoria and ACT/New South Wales.
The increase in profit was achieved despite lower revenues resulting from the completion of the Quayside apartment project in ACT and The Chimes residential land project in Western Australia in FY15, the weak market conditions across Western Australia and Northern Territory and despite the Group not having any direct exposure to the strong Sydney market. The increase in profit has been supported by an improved EBITDA[5] margin, which increased by 6% (from 26% in FY15 to 32%). Price growth backed by strong demand across the Victorian land portfolio, as well as the Group’s continued focus on operational efficiencies, were key contributing factors.
The performance has resulted in earnings per share of 8.7 cents for the year ended 30 June 2016, compared to 8.3 cents per share for FY15, representing an increase of 5%.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
During the year, the Group secured three new projects – Whole Green in Tarneit, Victoria; Redbank Plains, Queensland; and Tonsley, just 10 kilometres from the Adelaide CBD in South Australia. These projects comprise approximately 3,700 lots/dwellings with a gross development value of circa $930 million. The Tarneit and Redbank Plains projects are already in development and expected to contribute to FY17 earnings. Redbank Plains and Tonsley were secured under Peet’s Funds Management platform.
Peet also announced during the year that it had entered into a conditional agreement with the University of Canberra for the proposed development of approximately 3,300 dwellings with an expected gross development value of circa $1.7 billion.
In line with its strategy of managing its pipeline of projects with a focus on maximising return on capital, Peet sold its Arena, Greenvale (Victoria) project in August 2015, with the sales proceeds to be redeployed into lower cost base acquisitions; and completed the syndication of its latest retail land development syndicate.
The $25 million syndication of a parcel of land in Werribee, Victoria, via Peet Werribee Land Syndicate, was closed oversubscribed and, since 30 June 2016, the first sales of lots at Cornerstone, Werribee have been achieved.
The focus on maximising return on capital has seen the Group maintain its ROCE[9] above 13% (13.2% in FY16 and 13.8% in FY15).
In the second half of the year, the Group took the opportunity to issue $100 million in corporate bonds to diversify the Group’s debt structure and to support its growth objectives.
Operational commentary
The Group achieved 3,253 sales (with a gross value of $908.8 million) and 2,865 settlements (with a gross value of $757.1 million) for the full year, representing an increase of 1% and a decrease of 12% respectively compared with FY15.
The lower settlements reflected, in part, continuing challenging conditions in the Western Australian and Northern Territory property markets; the completion in 2015 of highly successful syndicated projects (Warner Lakes in Queensland and Kingsford in Victoria) and the Quayside apartment development project in ACT. These factors were partially offset by the continued strong performance of projects in the eastern states.
Approximately 55% of the Group’s settlements were achieved in the second half of FY16 and, as at 30 June 2016, there were a record 2,426[10] contracts on hand, with a gross value of $545.7 million, providing solid momentum into the 2017 financial year. This compares with 2,061[11] contracts on hand with a gross value of $440.9 million at 30 June in 2015. These increases are predominantly attributable to the strong sales performance in eastern states’ funds management projects.
Funds Management projects
The Group’s Funds Management business performed solidly in FY16, with the strong performance of projects in the Victorian market more than offsetting the performance of projects in the weaker WA market and the completion of highly successful syndicates in Victoria and Queensland in FY15.
-
1,978 lots sold for a gross value of $481.2 million, compared with 1,768 lots ($433.8 million) in FY15.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
Joint arrangements
The increased contribution from the Group’s Joint Venture business in FY16, and continuing on the theme reported in the 1H16, is predominantly due to the strong performances of the Googong (NSW) and Lightsview (SA) projects more than offsetting the reduced contributions from The Village at Wellard (WA) and The Heights (NT).
-
712 lots sold for a gross value of $172 million, compared with 883 lots ($215.1 million) in FY15.
-
940 lots settled for a gross value of $218.3 million, compared with 951 lots ($228.8 million) in FY15.
-
428 contracts on hand[13] as at 30 June 2016 with a total value of $114.6 million, compared with 666 contracts[13] ($165.3 million) as at 30 June 2015.
-
EBITDA[14] of $28.3 million compared with $21.4 million in FY15.
-
Net EBITDA[14] margin of 40%, compared with 20% in FY15.
Development projects
The reduced contribution from the Group’s Development business is a result of the completion of the Quayside apartment project in ACT and The Chimes residential land project in WA in FY15. These factors were offset by the continued strong performance of the Group’s Aston project and the sale of the Arena, Greenvale in Victoria.
-
563 lots sold for a gross value of $255.7 million, compared with 578 lots ($167.1 million) in FY15.
-
417 lots settled for a gross value of $162.1 million, compared with 597 lots ($195.1 million) in FY15.
-
488 contracts on hand[15] as at 30 June 2016 with a total value of $116.4 million, compared with 245 contracts[15] ($58.7 million) as at 30 June 2015.
-
EBITDA[14] of $40.3 million compared with $45.7 million in FY15.
-
Net EBITDA[14] margin of 26%, compared with 25% in FY15.

Capital management
In the second half of the financial year, Peet issued $100 million in new unsecured Peet Bonds, with a maturity date of June 2021, and announced the extension of its senior syndicated debt facility to October 2019.
The funds raised under the Peet Bonds were used to repay the Peet Convertible Notes issued in 2011 and to diversify Peet’s debt capital structure to further strengthen the Peet Group’s balance sheet and to further support its growth objectives.
The Peet Bonds also increased the weighted average maturity of the Group’s borrowings from 2.0 years as at 30 June 2015 to 3.7 years as at 30 June 2016.
The Group’s interest-bearing debt (including Peet Bonds) stood at $266.9 million at 30 June 2016, compared with $234.9 million at 30 June 2015. Approximately 84% of the Group’s interest-bearing debt was fixed/hedged as at 30 June 2016 (2015: 51%).

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
While the Group’s interest-bearing debt increased during the year as a result of the Whole Green, Tarneit acquisition, it has maintained its focus on prudent capital management, with gearing[16 ] of 28.8% as at 30 June 2016, compared to 30.6% at the half year.
Peet is well capitalised, however it considers it prudent in the current tightening lending environment to target gearing at the lower end of its target range of 20-30%. While gearing may rise above the target range to fund acquisition opportunities, the Group’s preference for acquisitions through its co-investment funds management model is expected to see gearing revert back to within the target range in the short to medium term.
The Group had net cash and debt headroom of $96.8 million at 30 June 2016 and produced net operating cash flows of $67 million (before land payments) during the year. Net operating cash flows were impacted during the year by the fall in settlements across the Western Australian and Northern Territory projects and the delay in approximately $15 million of settlements from the Whole Green, Tarneit project in Victoria into July 2016.
Dividends
Subsequent to year end, the Directors have declared a final dividend for FY16 of 2.75 cents per share, fully franked. This brings the total dividend for FY16 to 4.5 cents per share, fully franked, which is in line with the FY15 dividend (4.5 cents per share, fully franked), 50% payout ratio and the Group’s focus of targeting the lower end of its target gearing range. The dividend is to be paid on Friday, 14 October 2016, with a record date of Friday, 30 September 2016.
The Directors have resolved to keep the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan deactivated.
Group strategy
The Group will continue to target the delivery of shareholder value and quality residential communities around Australia by leveraging its land bank; working in partnership with wholesale, institutional and retail investors; and continuing to meet market demand for a mix of product in the growth corridors of major Australian cities, with a focus on affordable product.
Key elements of the Group’s strategy for the year ahead and beyond include:
-
continuing to deliver high-quality, masterplanned communities, adding value and facilitating additional investment in amenity and services wherever possible;
-
managing the Group’s land bank of more than 48,000 lots to achieve optimal shareholder returns;
-
continuing to assess opportunities to selectively acquire residential land holdings in a disciplined manner under our funds management platform;
-
an ongoing focus on maximising return on capital employed in all our key markets; and
-
maintaining a focus on cost and debt reduction.
FY17 will see the commencement of development of a further four projects in key markets across Australia.
Subsequent to year end, Peet announced the establishment of a new wholesale fund between Peet and Supalai Public Company, a real estate developer listed on the Thailand stock exchange, with each being 50% co-investors. Peet will act as the development manager for the fund which has acquired the residential estate in Redbank Plains, Queensland previously mentioned. The project is expected to be developed out over six years with expected completion in late 2022, and complements the recent launch of Peet’s Flagstone City project.
Risks
The Group’s operating and financial performance is influenced by a number of risks impacting the property sector. These include general economic conditions, government policy influencing a range of matters including population growth, household income and consumer confidence, the employment market, and land development conditions and requirements, particularly in relation to infrastructure and environmental management.
Global and domestic economic factors which may influence capital markets and the movement of interest rates are also risks faced by the Group.
The property market is cyclical and, while the Group is impacted by fluctuations in the market, it has also proved its capacity to manage through various cycles over a very significant period of time.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
At an individual project level, residential property developments also face a number of risks related to the price and availability of capital, the timeliness of approvals, delays in construction, and the level of competition in the market. The Group has a long history of managing these risks at an individual project and portfolio level.
The Group’s financial risk management policies are set out in note 16 to the Financial Report.
Outlook
The Peet Group’s portfolio of residential development landholdings is well positioned for sustainable long-term growth and value creation and the outlook is generally supported by market fundamentals with sustained low interest rates and modest economic growth.
Conditions across Victoria, ACT/ New South Wales and South Australia are expected to remain supportive, while Western Australia and Northern Territory are expected to remain subdued through the 2017 calendar year.
Activity in the Queensland residential market continues to improve due to its relative affordability, which has been a factor in the recovery in interstate migration.
The Group has moved into FY17 well-positioned to target earnings growth, subject to market conditions and the timing of settlements, with earnings expected to be weighted to the second half.

5. Significant changes in the state of affairs
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the year.

On 15 July 2016, the Group announced that it established a new wholesale fund with Peet and Supalai Public Company, a real estate developer listed on the Thailand stock exchange, each being 50% co-investors. Peet will act as the development manager for the fund. The wholesale fund has acquired a 1,100 lot residential project in Redbank Plains, Queensland for $37.5 million. The acquisition is unconditional, with settlement expected to occur in September 2016.
No other matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial year, which have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial years.
7. Dividends
In August 2015, the Directors declared a final fully franked dividend of 3.0 cents per share in respect of the year ended 30 June 2015. The dividend of $14.7 million was paid on Wednesday, 30 September 2015.

8. Environmental regulation
The Group is subject to environmental regulation by way of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 in respect of its land subdivision activities nationally, as well as other environmental regulations under both Commonwealth and State legislation.
The Group is not aware of any breaches of environmental regulations in respect of its activities. However, from time to time, statutory authorities make enquiries, issue notices requiring documents and/or material to be provided, and undertake investigations or audits to confirm compliance with relevant regulations.
Greenhouse gas and energy data reporting requirements
The Group may be subject to the reporting requirements of the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 . This requires the Group to report its annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy use if it has operational control of facilities (sites) that emit greenhouse gases, produce energy, or consume energy at or above the specified GHG emission and energy thresholds per financial year.
The Group is not required to register and report to the Clean Energy Regulator as the Group passes operational control for each of its projects to the relevant contractor undertaking the works, and the remainder of the Group’s activities fall below the reporting thresholds for the FY16 reporting period.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
12. Remuneration
Dear Shareholder,
Peet is pleased to present its Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2016. This report sets out remuneration information for Non-executive Directors, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (MD), and the Executive Team and focuses on the remuneration decisions made by the Board and the pay outcomes that resulted.
The 2016 financial year represented another year of growth as Peet achieved an operating net profit after tax of $42.6 million, up 11% on the $38.5 million achieved in the 2015 financial year. During the year, Peet secured several new projects, further diversified its debt capital strengthening its balance sheet and continued to deliver on its strategy for growth.
To ensure Peet delivers on its growth strategy it must have the right people to lead the Group over the long-term and a competitive remuneration framework that encourages our Executive Team and wider Leadership Team to continue to make decisions with a view to creating long-term value for shareholders and all stakeholders.
In considering remuneration outcomes, the Board’s Remuneration Committee (Committee):
-
(a) balances Peet’s financial performance with the development and implementation of strategies for the long-term benefit of the Group; and
-
(b) takes into account the underlying scale of Peet’s operations which are not fully identifiable from a pure focus on the Group’s statutory accounts.
While the statutory financial statements show total revenue of $268.1 million and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of $89.8 million, Peet management remains responsible for a greater scale of business.
In addition to its own land development projects, Peet is also responsible for the management of a significant portfolio of land development projects held within its Funds Management and Joint Venture businesses.
If these properties were combined with those of Peet, total Group revenues increase to $757.1 million and total EBITDA increases to $200 million.
Accordingly, the scale of business from which Peet derives its revenues and earnings, which drive its capacity to pay dividends to shareholders, is extensive.
Key remuneration outcomes of the Committee’s deliberations are as follows:
-
The MD’s base pay for the year ended 30 June 2016 was the same as for the previous year.
-
Only one of the other Executive Team members received an increase in base pay for the year ended 30 June 2016.
-
Short–term incentives will be paid to the Executive Team in respect of the year ended 30 June 2016. This follows a positive assessment of the Executive Team’s performance against a balanced scorecard, which includes consideration of Group financial, strategic and individual targets.
-
During the year, long-term incentive performance conditions were tested as at 30 June 2015 resulting in the partial vesting of performance rights and the subsequent issue of ordinary shares during the 2016 financial year to participants in Peet’s long-term incentive plan.
-
There was no increase in the base fee of Non-executive Directors during the year.
Peet also takes the opportunity to confirm that the MD’s base pay for the year ending 30 June 2017 will be the same as 2016, notwithstanding his contractual entitlement to an adjustment of at least CPI. Additionally, the 2017 base pays of all other Key Management Personnel (directors and executives) will remain the same as their 2016 base pays.
We encourage our shareholders to use the cash value of remuneration realised table on page 14 to assess the remuneration outcomes for Executives in the year ended 30 June 2016 and the alignment of these outcomes with the Group’s performance.
The key difference between the cash value of remuneration realised and the statutory remuneration is the value included in the statutory remuneration table for potential future outcomes under the long-term incentive. A value is required to be included in the statutory remuneration table to account for long-term incentives that may or may not vest in the future, while the value for long-term incentives included in the cash value of remuneration realised table represents the value of shares actually issued to Executives following the vesting of performance rights.
The Board is satisfied that these remuneration outcomes for the year ended 30 June 2016 are appropriately performance-based while at the same time recognising the strategic needs of the Group, and we commend this report to you.
Robert McKinnon Chairman, Remuneration Committee

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
B. PRINCIPLES USED TO DETERMINE THE NATURE AND AMOUNT OF REMUNERATION
The objective of the Company’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with achievement of strategic objectives for the long-term benefit of the Company and shareholders. The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:
-
competitiveness and reasonableness;
-
acceptability to shareholders;
-
performance linkage/alignment to executive compensation; and
-
capital management.
In consultation with external remuneration consultants in prior financial years, the Company has structured, and continues to evolve, an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to our reward strategy through the following features.
Alignment to shareholders’ interests
-
has a relevant measurement of financial performance as a core component of plan design;
-
rewards implementation of strategy focused on building Peet’s Funds Management business;
-
focuses the Executive on other key financial and non-financial drivers of long-term value; and
-
attracts and retains high-calibre executives.
In prior years, the Remuneration Committee of the Board had given consideration to the most appropriate financial measure to align the creation of shareholder value with incentive arrangements for senior management. Consideration was given to relative performance against comparable listed companies, measuring growth in Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA), relative performance in measures such as Return on Equity (ROE) and Return on Average Funds Employed (ROAFE) and absolute performance in measures such as ROE and ROAFE.
After due consideration the Remuneration Committee recommended to the Board, and it agreed, to assess financial performance for the purposes of FY15 long-term incentive awards against ROAFE, together with funds under management growth which has been applied for several years.
FY16 long-term incentive awards contain the performance condition of Return on Capital Employed (ROCE). The calculation of ROCE is no different to the calculation of ROAFE.
The Remuneration Committee and the Board will continue to assess the applicability of all short-term and long-term related key performance indicators as they are applied in assessing performance for remuneration purposes.
Alignment to program participants’ interests
-
rewards capability and experience;
-
provides a clear structure for earning rewards; and
-
provides recognition for contribution.
The framework provides a mix of fixed and variable pay, and a blend of short and long-term incentives. As employees are promoted to executive and senior management roles within the Company, the balance of this mix shifts to a higher proportion of ‘at risk’ rewards.
Non-executive Directors’ fees (including the Chairman’s fees)
Fees and payments to Non-executive Directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the Directors. Non-executive Directors’ fees and payments are reviewed periodically by the Remuneration Committee and the Board. The Remuneration Committee considers, as appropriate, the advice of independent remuneration consultants to ensure Non-executive Directors’ fees and payments are appropriate and in line with the market. Non-executive Directors do not receive share options or performance rights.
The Non-executive Directors’ remuneration is inclusive of committee fees and fees for their membership on any subsidiary Boards. From 1 July 2014, the fees payable to the Non-executive Directors was increased by 15% along with an increase in fees for Chairman of the Remuneration Committee and the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Management Committee by $10,000 each. Non-executive Directors may also be entitled to fees where they represent Peet on the Board of Syndicates.
Non-executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. Shareholders approved a resolution at the 2012 AGM to increase the aggregate Non-executive Directors’ fees pool to $900,000.
The Non-executive Directors do not receive any form of retirement allowance.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
Executive pay
The Company’s pay and reward framework for an Executive Director and other (non-director) key management personnel has the following components:
-
base pay and benefits;
-
short-term performance incentives; and
-
long-term incentives.
The combination of these comprises the total remuneration for the individual concerned.
Base pay and benefits
The base pay for Executives is structured as a total employment cost package, which may be delivered as a mix of cash and prescribed non-financial benefits and includes superannuation.
Executives are offered a competitive base pay that comprises the fixed component of pay and rewards. As and when considered appropriate, external remuneration consultants provide analysis and advice to ensure base pay is set to reflect the market for a comparable role. Base pay is reviewed annually to ensure it remains competitive with the market.
Short-term performance incentives (STI)
Executives have a target STI opportunity depending on the accountabilities of their specific role and impact on the Group’s performance. The maximum target bonus opportunity for the Executives for the years ended 30 June 2016 and 2015 ranged between 100% and 25% of the relevant executive’s base pay. However, the Board of Directors has the discretion to pay over and above these amounts.
Each year, the Remuneration Committee considers the appropriate targets and key performance indicators (KPIs) to link to the STI plan and the level of payout if targets are met for the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (MD). This may include setting any maximum payout under the STI plan and minimum levels of performance to trigger payment of STI. The MD will then set the STI key performance indicators (KPIs) to apply to his direct reports (being the non-director executive).
KPIs for each Executive are set by reference to the following criteria based on their specific role:
-
financial targets;
-
business growth targets;
-
stakeholder engagement;
-
people and process improvements; and
-
maintenance and enhancement of health, safety and environmental platforms within the Group.
For the year ended 30 June 2016, the MD and other Executives were assessed as follows against the KPIs:
| Weighting | Weighting | % Achieved | % Forfeited | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Category | MD | Executives | MD | Executives |
MD | Executives |
| Financial | 60.0% | 60.0% to 70.0% | 51.3% | 51.3% to 56.2% |
8.7% | 8.7% to 13.8% |
| Strategic | 17.5% | 7.5% to 35.0% | 10.0% | 2.0% to 28.0% |
7.5% | 5.5% to 7.5% |
| Stakeholder | 7.5% | 0.0% to 7.5% | 6.5% | 0.0% to 6.5% |
1.0% | 0.0% to 1.0% |
| People and processes improvements | 10.0% | 5.0% to 22.5% | 10.0% | 5.0% to 12.5% |
- | 0.0% to 10.0% |
| Health,safetyand environment | 5.0% | 0.0% to 5.0% | 5.0% | 5.0% |
- | - |
| 100.0% | 100.0% | 82.8% | 70.7% to 84.3% |
17.2% | 15.7% to 29.3% |
For the year ended 30 June 2015, the KPI’s linked to STI plan were based on similar criteria.
Long-term incentives (LTI)
Traditionally, the Company has provided its Executives with LTIs through participation in the Peet Limited Employee Share Option Plan (PESOP) and/or the Peet Limited Performance Rights Plan (PPRP).
Executives have a target LTI opportunity depending on the accountabilities of their specific role and impact on the Group’s performance. The maximum target opportunity for the Executives for the years ended 30 June 2016 and 2015 ranged between 100% and 50% of the relevant executive’s base pay.
Each year, the Remuneration Committee considers the appropriate targets and KPIs to link to the LTI plan and the level of payout if targets are met for the Executives. This may include setting any maximum payout under the LTI plan and minimum levels of performance to trigger payment of LTI. Further details of the Company’s LTI structures are included in the section titled ‘Share-based compensation’.

C. DETAILS OF REMUNERATION
Details of the statutory and cash value of remuneration of each Director and Executive of the Group are set out in the tables following.
The table below sets out the total cash value of remuneration realised for the Directors and Executives and provides shareholders with details of the “take-home” pay received during the year. These earnings include cash salary and fees, superannuation, non-cash benefits received during the year and the value of shares issued to Executives following the vesting of Performance Rights (PRs) during the financial year. The table does not include the accounting value of share-based payments consisting of PRs granted in the current and prior years required for statutory purposes. This is because those sharebased payments are dependent on the achievement of performance hurdles and so may or may not be realised.

D. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Options over shares in Peet Limited are granted under the PESOP, which was approved by the Board and shareholders during the 2004 financial year. Performance rights over shares in Peet Limited are granted under the PPRP, which was approved by shareholders at the 2008 AGM. Changes have been made since to allow for changes in taxation of PRs. Employees of any Group Company (including an Executive Director) will be eligible to participate in the PESOP and/or PPRP at the discretion of the Board.
The PESOP and PPRP are designed to provide long-term incentives for Executives to deliver long-term shareholder returns. Under the plans, participants are granted options and/or PRs, which only vest if the employees are still employed by the Group at the end of the vesting period, subject to the Board’s discretion, and any set performance hurdles have been met.
Invitations to apply for options and/or performance rights
Eligible employees, at the discretion of the Board, may be invited to apply for options and/or PRs on terms and conditions to be determined by the Board including as to:
-
the method of calculation of the exercise price of each option;
-
the number of options and/or PRs being offered and the maximum number of shares over which each option and/or PR is granted;
-
the period or periods during which any of the options and/or PRs may be exercised;
-
the dates and times when the options and/or PRs lapse;
-
the date and time by which the application for options and/or PRs must be received by Peet; and
-
any applicable conditions which must be satisfied or circumstances which must exist before the options and/or PRs may be exercised.
Eligible employees may apply for part of the options and/or PRs offered to them, but only in specified multiples.
Consideration
Unless the Board determines otherwise, no payment will be required for a grant of options and/or PRs under the PESOP and/or PPRP.
Exercise conditions
Generally, as a pre-condition to exercise, any exercise conditions in respect of an option and/or PR must be satisfied. However, the Board has the discretion to enable an option and/or PR holder to exercise options and/or PRs where the exercise conditions
16
Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
have not been met, including, for example, where a court orders a meeting to be held in relation to a proposed compromise or arrangement in respect of the Company, or a resolution is passed, or an order is made, for winding up the Company.
Options granted under the PESOP and PRs granted under the PPRP carry no dividend or voting rights.
Lapse of options and/or PRs
Unexercised options and/or PRs will lapse upon the earlier to occur of a variety of events specified in the rules of the PESOP and PPRP including, on the date or in circumstances specified by the Board in the invitation, failure to meet the options’ or PRs’ exercise conditions in the prescribed period or on a specified anniversary date of grant of the options or PRs, as determined by the Board.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
NOTE 1
The issue of a share-based payment award to a Director requires shareholder approval and the value at grant date is taken as the date at which that approval is granted. Accordingly, the value of these PRs is based on 28 November 2012, 26 November 2013, 26 November 2014 and 25 November 2015, being the dates of Peet Limited’s, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 AGMs, respectively.
NOTE 2
These options are convertible to ordinary shares on a 1:1 basis at the exercise price after the fourth anniversary of the grant date.
The exercise condition in respect of these options is that Mr Gore remains employed as Managing Director for a period of four years. Although the service period requirement has been met, the options have not been exercised.
NOTE 3
These PRs are convertible to ordinary shares on a 1:1 basis, with 40% subject to the Funds Under Management (FUM) growth vesting condition.
FUM growth is measured as the total of the following during the performance period :
-
the purchase price (ex GST) of land acquired by a Peet syndicate or Joint Venture; or
-
the market value (ex GST) of land for which Peet has been appointed development manager at the time of its appointment; or
-
the selling price (ex GST) of land sold by Peet, Syndicate, Joint Venture or Peet-managed project to a third party and Peet is appointed the development manager (and where applicable, to manage the leasing) of a commercial, industrial, retail or residential built-form project on that property; or
-
in all other property funds management-related transactions, as determined by the Board of Directors
The aggregate of the FUM growth during the performance period is then compared to the FUM growth target set by the Board.
Of the PRs subject to FUM growth, the proportion to vest will be as follows:
| Performance level | Aggregate FUM growth |
target | Proportion of performance rights |
|---|---|---|---|
| during performance period | that may be eligible to vest | ||
| Less than the target | Less than $60 million | 0% | |
| Target | $60 million | 50% | |
| Target – medium | $60 million to $100 million | Pro-rata between 50% and 70% | |
| Medium – maximum | $100 million to $150 million | Pro-rata between 70% and 100% | |
| Maximum | Greater than $150 million | 100% |
The Group achieved FUM growth of $88.9 million for the three-year performance period ended 30 June 2015. Accordingly, the performance condition was partially met and on 12 August 2015 the Directors resolved that 64% of the FY13 PRs thereto vested.
The Group achieved the FUM growth of $143.0 million for the three-year performance period ended 30 June 2016. Accordingly, the performance condition was partially met and on 23 August 2016 the Directors resolved that 96% of the FY14 PRs thereto vested.
The PRs for the performance period ending 30 June 2017 remain unvested.
NOTE 4
These PRs are convertible to ordinary shares on a 1:1 basis, with 60% subject to the EBITDA growth vesting condition, measured over a three-year period from 1 July 2012 to 30 June 2015 (FY13 Performance Period).
EBITDA growth is measured as the aggregate EBITDA achieved over the FY13 Performance Period, compared to the Board’s internal EBITDA target for the FY13 Performance Period. The calculation of EBITDA is based on “underlying” EBITDA. That is, it does not include either write-downs of inventories and/or development costs or increases in the carrying value of inventories.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
Of the performance rights subject to EBITDA growth, the proportion to vest will be as follows:
| Of the performance rights subject to EBITDA growth, the | proportion to vest will be as follows: |
|---|---|
| Performance level | Proportion of performance rights that may be eligible |

| Less than 85% of the target | 0% |
| 85% of the target | 30% |
| 85% to 90% of the target | Pro-rata between 30% and 50% |
| 90% to 100% of the target | Pro-rata between 50% and 70% |
| 100% to 120% of the target | Pro-rata between 70% and 100% |
| Greater than 120% of the target | 100% |
The Group achieved underlying EBITDA of $219.2 million against the target of $156.8 million for the three-year performance period ended 30 June 2015. Accordingly, the EBITDA growth performance condition attached to the FY13 PRs was met and on 12 August 2015 the Directors resolved that 100% of the FY13 PRs relating thereto vested.
NOTE 5
These PRs are convertible to ordinary shares on a 1:1 basis, with 60% subject to ROAFE vesting condition, measured over a three-year period from 1 July 2013 to 30 June 2016 (FY14 Performance Period) and 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2017 (FY15 Performance Period) respectively. ROAFE is measured as the average of the earnings before interest, tax and write-downs of inventories and/or development costs or increases in the carrying value of inventories (EBIT) divided by the average of the sum of net debt, convertible notes, contributed equity, non-controlling interests and retained earnings.
The ROAFE is compared to the Board’s internal target ROAFE for the FY14 and FY15 Performance Period respectively.
Of the PRs subject to ROAFE, the proportion to vest will be as follows:
| respectively. Of the PRs subject to ROAFE, the proportion to vest will |
be as follows: |
|---|---|
| Performance level | Proportion of performance rights that may be eligible |
| to vest | |
| Less than 75% of the target | 0% |
| 75% of the target | 30% |
| 75% to 85% of the target | Pro-rata between 30% and 50% |
| 85% to 100% of the target | Pro-rata between 50% and 70% |
| 100% to 110% of the target | Pro-rata between 70% and 100% |
| Greater than 110% of the target | 100% |
The Group achieved underlying ROAFE of 11.58% against the target of 10.5% for the three-year performance period ended 30 June 2016. Accordingly, the ROAFE performance condition attached to the FY14 PRs was met and on 23 August 2016 the Directors resolved that 100% of the FY14 PRs relating thereto vested.
The PRs for the performance period ending 30 June 2017 remain unvested.
NOTE 6
These PRs are convertible to ordinary shares on a 1:1 basis, with 60% subject to ROCE vesting condition, measured over a three-year period from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2018 (FY16 Performance Period).
ROCE is measured the same way as ROAFE used in respect of prior years’ grants.
Of the PRs subject to ROCE, the proportion to vest will be as follows:
| Performance level | Proportion of performance rights that may be eligible |
|---|---|
| to vest | |
| Less than 75% of the target | 0% |
| 75% of the target | 30% |
| 75% to 85% of the target | Pro-rata between 30% and 50% |
| 85% to 100% of the target | Pro-rata between 50% and 70% |
| 100% to 110% of the target | Pro-rata between 70% and 100% |
| Greater than 110% of the target | 100% |
The PRs for the performance period ending 30 June 2018 remain unvested..

Details of remuneration: cash bonuses, options and PRs
For each cash bonus, grant of options and/or PRs included in the tables within the remuneration report, the percentage of the available bonus or grant that was paid, or that vested and the percentage that was forfeited because the person did not meet the service and performance criteria, is set out below. Generally, no part of the bonuses forfeited is payable in future years. Subject to the rules of the PESOP and PPRP no options or PRs will vest if the conditions are not satisfied, subject to the discretion of the Board, hence the minimum value of the option and PRs yet to vest is nil. The maximum value of the options and PRs yet to vest has been determined as the amount of the grant date fair value of the options and PRs that is yet to be expensed.

Directors’ Report Year ended 30 June 2016
14. Indemnity of officers and auditors
During the financial year, the Company paid a premium in respect of a Directors’ and Officers’ insurance policy that insures Directors and Officers of the Company. The liabilities insured are costs and expenses that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may be brought against the Directors and Officers in their capacity as such. The Directors have not included more specific details of the nature of the liabilities covered or the amount of the premium paid in respect of Directors’ and Officers’ liability, as such disclosure is prohibited under the terms of the contract.
To the extent permitted by law, the Company has agreed to indemnify its auditors, Ernst & Young Australia, as part of the terms of its audit engagement agreement against claims by third parties arising from the audit (for an unspecified amount). The indemnity does not apply to any loss in respect of any matters which are finally determined to have resulted from the auditors’ negligent, wrongful or willful acts or omissions. No payment has been made to indemnify the auditors during or since the financial year.
15. Non-audit services
The Company may decide to employ the auditor on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where the auditor’s expertise and experience with the Company and/or the Group are considered important.
The Board of Directors has considered the position and, in accordance with the advice received from the Audit and Risk Management Committee, is satisfied that the provision of the non-audit services is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the auditor did not compromise the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
-
all non-audit services have been reviewed by the Audit and Risk Management Committee to ensure they do not impact the impartiality and objectivity of the auditor; and
-
none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants.
The fees that were paid or payable for services provided by the auditors of the Group, its related practices and non-related audit firms is set out in note 21 of the Financial Report.
16. Auditor’s independence declaration
A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration, as required under section 307C of the Corporation Act 2001, is set out on page 26.
17. Rounding of amounts
The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to the “rounding off” of amounts in the Director’s Report. Amounts in the Director’s Report have been rounded off in accordance with that legislative instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.
Signed for and on behalf of the Board in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements Year ended 30 June 2016
Basis of reporting
This section of the financial report sets out the basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Where an accounting policy is specific to one note, the policy is described in the note to which it relates.
1. Reporting entity
This financial report covers the consolidated financial statements for the Consolidated Entity consisting of Peet Limited and its subsidiaries (Group). The Financial Report is presented in the Australian currency. Peet Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office and principal place of business is; Level 7, 200 St Georges Terrace, Perth WA 6000. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report. Peet Limited is a for-profit entity.
2. Basis of preparation
The Financial Report is a general purpose financial report which:
-
has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 ;
-
complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB);
-
has been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for derivative instruments which have been measured at fair value;
-
provides comparative information in respect of the previous period; and
-
is rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars or in certain cases to the nearest dollar in accordance with ASIC Corporations Instrument 2016/191.
a. Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during the year ended 30 June 2016. The Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
-
power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);
-
exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
-
the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
b. Associates
Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. In the case of syndicates, significant influence can exist with a lower shareholding by virtue of the Group’s position as project manager. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost.
The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. Dividends receivable from associates are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
c. Investments in joint arrangements
Joint arrangements are arrangements of which two or more parties have joint control. Joint control is the contractual agreed sharing of control of the arrangement which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Joint arrangements are classified as either a joint operation or joint venture , based on the rights and obligations arising from the contractual obligations between the parties to the arrangement.
34
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements Year ended 30 June 2016
To the extent the joint arrangement provides the Group with rights to the individual assets and obligations arising from the joint arrangement, the arrangement is classified as a joint operation and as such, the Group recognises its:
-
assets, including its share of any assets held jointly;
-
liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly;
-
share of revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and
-
expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.
To the extent the joint arrangement provides the Group with rights to the net assets of the arrangement, the investment is classified as a joint venture and accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the cost of the investment is adjusted by the post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of the net assets of the venture.
d. Changes in ownership interests
The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a gain or loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to noncontrolling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity attributable to owners of Peet Limited.
e. Changes in accounting policies
The Group has adopted all new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations effective from 1 July 2015. New and amended Standards and Interpretations did not result in any significant changes to the Group’s accounting policies. The Group has not elected to early adopt any other new or amended Standards or Interpretations that are issued but not yet effective (refer note 26 viii).
3. How to read the annual report
The notes to the financial statements are set out into four specific sections:
-
Performance for the year;
-
Operating assets and liabilities;
-
Capital management; and
-
Other notes.
Where an accounting policy is specific to one note, the policy is described in the note to which it relates.
Key estimates are described in the following notes:
-
Note 5 - sales fall over rates on project management and selling fees;
-
Note 8 - deferred tax assets; and
-
Note 9 - net realisable value.
Financial instrument risk management is carried out by the finance department under policies approved by the Board of Directors and the Audit and Risk Management Committee. The department identifies, evaluates and mitigates financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The Board and Audit and Risk Management Committee provide written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as mitigating interest rate and credit risks, use of derivative financial instruments and investing excess liquidity.
Financial risks and its management are detailed in the respective notes it pertains to. The Group’s activities expose it to financial risks including:
-
credit risk (note 11);
-
liquidity risk (note 16); and
-
interest rate risk (note 16).
Related party transactions are disclosed within the notes they relate to. Transactions which occur between the Group and significant controlled entities are classified as related parties. Significant controlled entities are interests held in associates and joint ventures, which are set out in note 10. Details relating to the key management personnel, including remuneration paid, are set out in note 6.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements Performance for the year Year ended 30 June 2016
Performance for the year
This section focuses on the results and performance of the Group.
4. Segment information
Operating segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the executive management group.
The executive management group assesses the performance of the operating segments based on multiple measures including earnings before interest (including interest and finance charges amortised through cost of sales), tax, depreciation and amortisation (“EBITDA”), earnings before interest (including interest and finance charges amortised through cost of sales) and tax (“EBIT”) and profit after tax.
The share of profits from associates and joint ventures is included as segment revenue as it is treated as revenue for internal reporting purposes.
The Group operates only in Australia.
The executive management group considers the business to have the following reportable business segments:
Funds management
Peet enters into asset and funds management agreements with external capital providers. Peet and/or the external capital provider commit equity funds towards the acquisition of land and this is generally supplemented with debt funds either at the time of acquisition or during the development phase of a project.
The Group derive fees from underwriting, capital raising and asset identification services. Ongoing project related fees (mainly project management and selling fees as well as performance fees) are then derived by the Group for the duration of a particular project.
Company-owned projects
The Group acquires parcels of land in Australia, primarily for residential development purposes. Certain land holdings will also produce non-residential blocks of land.
Joint arrangements
Joint arrangements are entered into with government, statutory authorities and private landowners. The form of these arrangements can vary from project to project but generally involves Peet undertaking the development of land on behalf of the landowner or in conjunction with the coowner. The Group is typically entitled to ongoing fees for management of the development project and also a share of the profits.
Inter-segment transfers and other unallocated
Segment revenue, expenses and results include transfers between segments. Such transfers are based on an arm’s length basis and are eliminated on consolidation.
The adoption of AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements from 1 July 2013, resulted in certain property syndicates being consolidated. These entities however, continue to be managed and reported to the executive management group as part of the funds management business segment. Adjustments are included in "Inter‑segment transfers and other unallocated" to reconcile reportable business segment information to the Group's consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Recognition and measurement
Revenue is recognised at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. The main streams of revenue are recognised if it meets the criteria outlined below.
Sale of land
Revenue from the sale of blocks from completed stages of land subdivision are recognised on settlement of the sale. This represents the point when risks and rewards have passed to the buyer.
Project management and selling fees
Project management and selling fees are recognised where there is a signed sales contract with a buyer as this is the point at which revenue has been earned by the project manager, adjusted for estimates of sales fall over rates.
Performance fees
Performance fee revenue is based on a profitability measurement in accordance with the relevant development management agreement.
Sales fall over rates on project management and selling fees
An analysis of sales fallen over is performed on a monthly basis for all business segments by location. This analysis is used to determine an appropriate provision for sales fall overs to be recognised against project management and selling fees.

interest – this is recognised when earned, which is determined using the effective interest rate method.
-
dividends – this is recognised when the Group's right to receive payment is established.
-
other trading activities – this is recognised as the service required under the contract is performed.

Land and development costs
Land and development costs represent the portion of the land and development costs associated with the lots sold during the year.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they are incurred. The capitalisation rate used to determine the amount of finance costs to be capitalised is the weighted average interest rate applicable to the Group's outstanding borrowings during the year (refer note 16).

Recognition and measurement
Deferred taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply, when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction by the end of the reporting period. The relevant tax rates are applied to the amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arise in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
Key estimates
Deferred tax assets
Current taxes
The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate, adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
The Group has recognised deferred tax assets relating to carried forward tax losses to the extent there are sufficient taxable temporary differences (deferred tax liabilities) relating to the same taxation authority against which the unused tax losses can be utilised. However, utilisation of the tax losses also depends on the ability of the entity, to satisfy certain tests at the time the losses are recouped.

Recognition and measurement
Land held for development and resale is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of acquisition, development and borrowing costs during development. When development is completed, borrowing costs and other holding charges are expensed as incurred.
Land is initially classified as non-current. It is subsequently reclassified to current if the development/subdivided lots are expected to be sold within the next 12 months.
Key estimates
Net realisable value
The Group is required to carry inventory at lower of cost and net realisable value. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Estimates of net realisable value are based on the most reliable evidence available at the time the estimates are made, of the amount the inventories are expected to realise and the estimate of costs to complete. The key assumptions require the use of management judgement and are reviewed annually.

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and generally have 30-60 day terms. There were no impaired trade receivables at the end of the year for the Group (2015: $Nil).
-
These amounts represent project management and performance fees from associates and other managed entities.
-
The Group has provided certain associates and JVs of the Group with working capital loan facilities on commercial terms. The loans provided to associates and JVs are unsecured with interest rates based on Bank Bill Swap Bid Rate (BBSY) plus a margin up to 4%.
-
Includes deferred facilities fee - Those that purchase homes in the Lattitude Lakelands retirement village enter into an agreement to pay deferred facilities fees on departure, which is based on 3% of the market value of the unit for each year of occupation (up to 24%). The deferred facilities fee is based on independent valuations.

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance date which are classified as non-current assets.
Trade receivables generally mentioned in (1) are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less allowance for impairment. Other receivables are recognised on an accrual basis as the services to which they relate are performed.
Refer note 20 for fair value disclosures.
Credit risk
The credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The maximum exposure to credit risk as at 30 June 2016 is the carrying amount of the financial assets in the consolidated financial statements.
The credit risk arising on trade and other receivables is monitored on an ongoing basis which results in the exposure to bad debts for the Group not being significant. There are no significant financial assets that have had renegotiated terms that would otherwise have been past due or impaired.
Based on the credit history of these classes, it is expected that these amounts will be received. The Group does not hold any collateral in relation to these receivables. There is no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to receivables as the Group has a large number of balances with related parties and the remaining with other parties that have a good credit history with the Group.
The Group manages this risk by:
-
transacting with credit worthy counterparties that have an appropriate credit history;
-
providing loans as an investment into joint ventures and associates where it is comfortable with the underlying property exposure within that entity;
-
performing ongoing checks to ensure that settlement terms detailed in individual contracts are adhered to;
-
regularly monitoring the performance of its associates, joint ventures and third parties; and
-
obtaining collateral as security (where appropriate).

Recognition and measurement
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. These amounts are unsecured and usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months from the reporting date. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
In some joint arrangement contracts, costs are reimbursed as incurred during development. As revenue is only recognised on settlements, reimbursements received are recognised as unearned revenue until settlement. Although unearned revenue is classified as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet, on settlement it will be recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and not be repaid in cash.
Refer note 20 for fair value disclosures.

Recognition and measurement
Where the Group enters into unconditional contracts with land vendors to purchase properties for future development that contain deferred payment terms, these borrowings are disclosed at their present value. The unwinding of the discount applied to the acquisition price is included in finance costs. Generally, the land vendor holds the title over the property until settlement has occurred.

14. Provisions (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the balance date. The discount rate used to determine the present value reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Rebates
The Group may be required under the terms of certain sale contracts to provide rebates for expenditures undertaken by land holders in respect of developments. These expenditures relate to landscaping and fencing and are generally payable where the land purchaser completes the construction of their dwelling within a specified period of time. This period is generally 12 to 18 months from the date of settlement. A liability is recorded at settlement and a related adjustment to profit or loss is recorded upon the expiration of the time limit if the rebate has not been paid.

Employee entitlements
The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of the employee, departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Capital management
This section outlines how the Group manages its capital and related financing costs.
For the purpose of the Group’s capital management, capital includes:
Recognition and measurement
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
-
issued capital;
-
debt facilities; and
-
other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent.
The Group's objectives when managing capital are to:
-
safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern;
-
continue to provide returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders;
-
maintain an efficient capital structure to reduce the cost of capital; and
-
ensure all covenants are complied with.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as total interest-bearing liabilities (including deferred payment obligations) less cash, divided by total assets adjusted for market value, net of cash and cash equivalents less intangible assets. The market value is based on the latest independent mortgage valuations, adjusted for settlements, development costs and titled stock between the date of valuation and 30 June 2016. At 30 June 2016, the bank covenant gearing ratio was 28.8% (2015: 23.8%).

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other shortterm, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.
For 2015, the fair value of the liability portion of a convertible bond was determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond. Subsequent to initial recognition the liability was carried on an amortised cost basis until maturity. The remainder, representing the equity component of the convertible bonds was recognised and included in reserves, net of income tax effects.
Refer note 20 for fair value disclosures.

a. Bank loans
The bank facilities are secured by a first registered fixed and floating charge over the assets and undertakings of the Group with a carrying amount of $798 million (2015: $691 million). Under these facilities the Group is required to meet bank covenants relating to interest cover, gearing ratio, real property ratio and minimum shareholders’ equity. All bank covenants have been met during the reporting period and as at 30 June 2016.
The Group’s main bank facility of $200 million was extended to 1 October 2019. The table below analyses the maturity of the Group’s bank loans based on the remaining period at reporting date to the contractual maturity date:

b. Peet bonds and convertible notes
Peet Limited issued 1,000,000 Peet bonds with a face value of $100 per bond on 7 June 2016. The bonds are unsecured and interest-bearing at a fixed rate of interest of 7.5%, payable semi-annually in arrears and have a maturity date of 7 June 2021.
Of the proceeds raised from the issuance of the Peet bonds, $50 million was used to repay the Peet convertible notes on 16 June 2016 with the remaining balance used to further strengthen the Peet Group’s balance sheet and support its growth objectives.
The bonds (2015: convertible notes) are presented in the balance sheet as follows:

Interest rate swap contracts - cash flow hedges
Recognition and measurement
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting period. The accounting for subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group designates certain derivatives as hedges of the cash flows of recognised assets and liabilities and highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).
The Group documents at the inception of the hedging transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, 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.
The gain or loss from remeasuring the hedging instruments at fair value is recognised in other comprehensive income and deferred in equity in the hedge reserve, to the extent that the hedge is effective. It is reclassified into profit or loss when the hedged interest expense is recognised. The ineffective portion is recognised in the statement of profit or loss immediately. There was no ineffectiveness in the current or prior year.
When a hedging instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the statement of profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately reclassified to the statement of profit or loss.
Bank loans of the Group currently bear a weighted average variable interest rate before hedges of 1.88% (2015: 2.53%). It is the Group’s policy to protect part of the loans from exposure to increasing interest rates. Accordingly, the Group has entered into interest rate swap contracts under which it is obliged to receive interest at variable rates and to pay interest at fixed rates.
The notional principal amounts and periods of expiry of the interest rate swap contracts were as follows:
| 2016 2015 $’000 $’000 |
|
|---|---|
| 0 – 1 years 1 – 2 years 2 – 5 years >5 years |
- 75,000 - - 25,000 50,000 100,000 100,000 |
| 125,000 225,000 |
The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months, otherwise current.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk includes the risk that the Group, as a result of their operations:
-
will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction on due date;
-
will be forced to sell financial assets at a value which is less than what they are worth; or
-
may be unable to settle or recover a financial asset at all.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due, and the ability to close-out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying business, the Group aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping committed credit lines available, and regularly updating and reviewing its cash flow forecasts to assist in managing its liquidity. The maturity analysis of the Group’s derivative and non-derivative financial instruments can be located in their respective notes.
The Group has unused borrowing facilities which can further reduce liquidity risk.
Credit risk
The cash component of financial assets is considered to have low credit risk as the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.
Swaps currently cover approximately 74% (2015: 40%) of the variable bank loan principal outstanding and are timed to expire as each loan repayment falls due. The fixed interest rate swaps range between 2.83% and 3.11% (2015: 5.05% and 5.08%) and the variable rates are between 1.85% and 2.02% (2015: 2.08% and 2.72%).
The contracts require settlement of net interest receivable or payable monthly. The settlement dates coincide with the dates on which interest is payable on the underlying debt.
50
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements Capital management Year ended 30 June 2016
Interest rate risk
The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from cash and long-term borrowings.
Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk.
The Group manages its cash flow interest rate risk by using floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps. Such interest rate swaps have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates. Generally, the Group raises long-term borrowings at floating rates and swaps them into fixed rates that are lower than those available if the Group borrowed at fixed rates directly.
Under the interest rate swaps, the Group agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals (mainly monthly), the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional principal amounts.
The Group’s fixed rate borrowings and receivables are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in AASB 7, Financial Investments: Disclosures.
Interest rate sensitivity
The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates in existence at balance date, and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period. A 50 basis point increase or decrease used in the interest rate sensitivity analysis was determined based on the level of debt that was renewed and forecasters’ economic expectations and represents management’s assessment of the possible change in interest rates.
At 30 June 2016, the Group had the following mix of financial assets and liabilities exposed to variable interest rates:
| 2016 2015 $’000 $’000 |

20. Fair value measurement
Key Estimation
Valuation of financial instruments
For financial assets and liabilities, the Group uses the following fair value measurement hierarchy:
-
Level 1: the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
-
Level 2: the fair value is determined using inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).
-
Level 3: the fair value is based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
Financial instruments measured at fair value
The Group’s derivative financial instruments were valued using market observable inputs (Level 2) at the carrying value of $8.2 million (2015: $3.4 million).
There have been no transfers between levels during the year.
Other financial instruments – fair value disclosures
The carrying value of receivables, payables and borrowings is considered to approximate their fair values.
The fair value of Peet bonds is the quoted market value (on ASX) of a bond which at 30 June 2016 was $102.03 per bond (Level 1).
Fair value estimation
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives and trading and available for sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the balance date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price; the appropriate quoted market price for financial liabilities is the current ask price.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, unlisted securities) is determined using valuation techniques. The Group uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance date.
-
Interest rate swaps are valued using valuation techniques, which employs the use of market observable inputs such as forward pricing and swap models.
-
Receivables/borrowings are evaluated by the Group based on parameters such as interest rates and individual creditworthiness of the counter party. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected losses of these receivables
-
- Fair value of the Peet bonds is based on price quotations at the reporting date.
The carrying amount of trade receivables and payables less impairment provision of trade receivables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments.

Peet has a direct interest of more than 20% and has decision making authority in its capacity as manager and earns remuneration for development and management activities. Peet has also provided a loan to this syndicate. The combination of the investment, together with its remuneration and exposure to credit risk, creates exposure to variability of returns from the activities of the fund that is of such a magnitude that it indicates that Peet is deemed to be acting principal.

24. Share-based payments
Peet Employee Share Option Plan (PESOP) and Peet Performance Rights Plan (PPRP)
The establishment of the PESOP was approved by the Board and shareholders during the 2004 financial year and the Peet Limited PPRP was approved by shareholders at the 2008 AGM. Employees of any Group Company (including Executive Directors) will be eligible to participate in the PESOP and/or PPRP at the discretion of the Board.
Invitations to apply for options and/or performance
rights
Eligible employees, at the discretion of the Board, may be invited to apply for options and/or performance rights on terms and conditions to be determined by the Board including as to:
-
the method of calculation of the exercise price of each option;
-
the number of options and/or performance rights being offered and the maximum number of shares over which each option and/or performance rights is granted;
-
the period or periods during which any of the options and/or performance rights may be exercised;
-
the dates and times when the options and/or performance rights lapse;
-
the date and time by which the application for options and/or performance rights must be received by Peet;
-
any applicable conditions which must be satisfied or circumstances which must exist before the options and/or performance rights may be exercised.
Eligible employees may apply for part of the options and/or performance rights offered to them, but only in specified multiples.
Consideration
Unless the Board determines otherwise, no payment will be required for a grant of options and/or performance rights under the PESOP and/or PPRP.
Vesting and exercise conditions
Under the plans, options and/or PRs only vest if the employees are still employed by the Group at the end of the vesting period, subject to the Board’s discretion, and any set performance hurdles have been met.
Generally, as a pre-condition to exercise, any exercise conditions in respect of an option and/or performance right must be satisfied. However, the Board has the discretion to enable an option and/or performance right holder to exercise options and/or performance rights where the exercise conditions have not been met, including, for example, where a court orders a meeting to be held in relation to a proposed compromise or arrangement in respect of the Company, or a resolution is passed or an order is made for winding up the Company. Options granted under the PESOP and performance rights under the PPRP carry no dividend or voting rights.
Lapse of options and performance rights
Unexercised options and/or performance rights will lapse upon the earlier to occur of a variety of events specified in the rules of the PESOP and PPRP including, on the date or in circumstances specified by the Board in the invitation, failure to meet the options’ or performance rights’ exercise conditions in the prescribed period or on the expiry date of options and/ or performance rights, as determined by the Board.
Fair value of options and performance rights granted
The fair value of an option and PRs at grant date is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and the value of a performance right at grant date is determined using a Binomial pricing model. The models take into account the exercise price, the term of the option and/or performance right, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the non-tradeable nature of the option or performance right, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option and/or performance right.
The inputs for assessing the fair value of the performance rights issued during the year under the PPRP were:
| Expected price | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Share price at | volatility of | Risk free | Assessed fair | |||
| Grant Date | Exercise Price | Expiry date | grant date | shares | interest rate | value |
| 21 Nov 15 | $0.00 | 21 Nov 30 | $1.07 | 30% | 2.11% | $0.974 |
| 21 Dec 15 | $0.00 | 21 Dec 30 | $1.05 | 30% | 2.05% | $0.957 |
The expected price volatility is based on the historic volatility (based on the remaining life of the options and/or performance rights), adjusted for any expected changes to future volatility due to publicly available information.
Total expenses arising from share-based payment transactions recognised during the year as part of employee benefits expense is $2,280,000 (2015: $2,377,000).

25. Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year
On 15 July 2016, Peet Limited (“Peet”) announced the establishment of a new wholesale fund with Supalai Public Company, a real estate developer listed on the Thailand stock exchange, each being 50% co-investors. Peet will act as the development manager for the fund. The wholesale fund has acquired a residential estate in Redbank Plains, Queensland for a total acquisition price of $37.5 million. The contract is unconditional, with settlement expected to occur in September 2016. The project is expected to be developed out over six years with expected completion in late 2022.
The Directors have declared a final franked dividend of 2.75 cents per share in respect to the year ended 30 June 2016. The dividend is to be paid on Friday, 14 October 2016, with a record date of Friday, 30 September 2016. No provision has been made for this dividend in the financial report as the dividend was not declared or determined by the directors on or before the end of the financial year.
26. Other accounting policies
i. Investments and other financial assets
Recognition and derecognition
Regular purchases and sales of investments are recognised on trade-date - the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the statement of profit or loss. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
When securities classified as available for sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to the statement of profit or loss as gains and losses from investment securities.
Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Available for sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets at fair value through profit or loss category are presented in the statement of profit or loss
within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as part of revenue from continuing operations when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Fair value
Details on how the fair value of financial instruments is determined are disclosed in note 20.
Impairment
The Group assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of a security below its cost is considered in determining whether the security is impaired. If any such evidence exists for available for sale financial assets, the cumulative loss - measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss - is removed from equity and recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in the statement of profit or loss on equity instruments classified as available for sale are not reversed through the statement of profit or loss.
ii. Intangible assets
Intangible assets primarily consist of management rights. The management rights acquired by the Company are initially carried at cost. Amortisation is calculated based on the timing of projected cash flows of the management rights over their estimated useful lives.
- Management rights – 10 to 25 years
iii. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are shown at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
-
Fixtures and fittings – 3 to 10 years
-
Leasehold improvements – 10 years
-
Property – 40 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of profit or loss.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements Other notes Year ended 30 June 2016
iv. Termination benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminating the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal or providing termination benefits because of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after balance date are discounted to present value.
v. Retirement benefit obligations
Contributions to defined contribution funds are recognised as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
vi. Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
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 taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the balance sheet.
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 taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.
Parent entity financial information
Tax consolidation legislation
Peet Limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation as of 1 July 2003. Peet Limited is the head entity of the tax consolidated group. Members of the group are taxed as a single entity and the deferred tax assets and liabilities of the entities are set-off in the consolidated financial statements.
The entities in the tax consolidated group entered into a tax sharing agreement which limits the joint and several liability of the wholly-owned entities in the case of a default by the head entity, Peet Limited. At the balance sheet date the possibilities of default were remote.
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group.
Any difference between the amount assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) the wholly-owned entity.
Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the individual financial statements of Peet Limited. Such investments include both investments in shares issued by the subsidiary and other parent entity interests that in substance form part of the parent entity’s investment in the subsidiary. These include investments in the form of interest-free loans which have no fixed repayment terms and which have been provided to subsidiaries as an additional source of long-term capital.
vii. Leases
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Group as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

viii. New accounting standards and interpretations
Except as disclosed below, accounting policies have been consistently applied over all periods presented. The Group has adopted all new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and AASB Interpretations as of 1 July 2015, including:

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Peet Limited
Report on the financial report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Peet Limited, which comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at 30 June 2016, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other 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 and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration of the consolidated entity comprising 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 controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 2, 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 judgment, 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 controls 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 controls. 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 . We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor’s Independence Declaration, a copy of which is included in the directors’ report.
