  1. Underlying EBIT (Earnings before interest and tax) is a financial measure which is not prescribed by Australian Accounting Standards ('AAS') and represents the profit or loss under AAS adjusted for the add back of income tax, finance costs and certain non-cash income and expense items that are deemed to not have an ongoing affect to the underlying performance of the business. The Company believes that presenting Underlying EBIT provides a better understanding of its financial performance by facilitating a more representative comparison of financial performance between financial periods.
