CHAIRMAN’S AND MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED TO 30 JUNE 2025
FY2025 has been another busy year and sales revenue growth remained strong (up $46m). Because inflation and GDP growth were both significantly lower than over the previous two years, the rate at which we grew revenue in FY2025 was also lower at around 15%.
Full year sales revenue was $349m and profit after tax (“PAT”) was $40m, giving a slightly improved PAT margin of 11.4%.
At the start of last financial year, we were working to ensure our network could efficiently support full year revenues up to $400m, yet by mid FY2025 our attention had shifted to bigger targets. Preparing for the future while managing growth is challenging, and we have great respect for the ability of our teams to keep on delivering through periods of significant change. We congratulate staff on yet another year of business building and excellent results.
Review of Operations
While our focus always and everywhere is firmly on improving customer service, the measure of our success lies in sales outcomes.
There is always some regional variability in growth rates, driven by differences in local competition, our own local performance, and the timing of various investments in our network. Notwithstanding this, we are pleased to report that sales growth remained broadly consistent across the Group.
Our growth comes from all major customer segments but remains skewed towards truck fleets and truck repairers. Increasingly, we are directing new services towards larger customers, who make up the primary target segment for truck manufacturers and their service network. As capacity pressures on these service networks grow, Multispares is uniquely positioned to deliver an alternative and trusted supply capability.
In April 2025, we commenced trading at our new Wangara, WA branch, located in the industrial precinct servicing the north Perth growth corridor. It is early days, but we have a capable new team and an excellent facility, and we are sure this new branch has a long growth runway ahead. Further to the north in Karratha, wherein recent years we have been building our service for customers in the Pilbara, we opened a small, locally focused parts outlet that commenced trading in late June 2025.
In early July 2025, we also commenced distribution from our building extension at Truganina, Victoria. This was developed to enable us to relocate the distribution of selected products away from Pemulwuy, NSW which has been operating at above its design capacity throughout FY2025. We have already redirected incoming shipments of these products to Truganina, but the transition of all selected stock will happen progressively over the next 4-5 months. This critical piece of infrastructure has increased our distribution capacity to support the next $100m of revenue growth.
Our Network
Our branch network must also be prepared for growth, and with this intent we have signed agreements to increase branch capacity in Brisbane and Toowoomba, QLD and in Perth, WA and we continue to investigate options in Sydney, NSW.
For New Zealand, we have recently leased a new facility at Rosedale, north of the Auckland Bridge, and expect to take possession in early November 2025. Trading should commence in February 2026. This Rosedale branch will significantly improve our service for customers in north Auckland and further up the coast, and will relieve pressure on our current Auckland branch, based in Mt Wellington, enabling it to improve service for customers in central and south Auckland.

SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED
CHAIRMAN’S AND MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED TO 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
Safety
We are pleased to report another record low Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (“LTIFR”) in FY2025. Behind the steady improvement in LTIFR over recent years are many targeted programs in areas of greatest risk. So, while safety performance continues to improve, our focus remains on identifying the next steps and we have set new safety priorities for FY2026.
Employee safety is a complex and enduring challenge that is best addressed through a strong safety culture, something we have strived to attain over many years. We are fortunate to have had tireless guidance from our Group Safety Manager and excellent support from the entire management team. While there is always more to be done, there is no question that we are a better, safer organisation because of the efforts of this leadership group.
Capital Management
Directors continue to favour a low net debt financial structure while the Group undergoes rapid growth and builds market share. This helps us avoid unwanted distractions and provides management with financial flexibility to seamlessly fund investments in our business foundations, including stock, delivery systems, IT capabilities and enduring customer relationships.
Our capped price Dividend Reinvestment Plan has served this objective well, allowing us to pay over 70% of PAT to shareholders in fully franked dividends while providing our shareholders with the opportunity to reinvest in a growth business and a compelling long-term development strategy.
The Future
For FY2026, we have targeted similar revenue growth of around $50m. This will be challenging, especially in a year when we will be transitioning to a new version of our Enterprise Resource Planning software and an entirely new sales interface. Noting the demands of this migration, staff have planned well, and we are confident we can avoid any disruption to our high service standards.
Over the course of FY2025, we added substantial depth to our business development capability in preparation for the organic growth opportunities ahead. These opportunities remain substantial, and we intend to approach them with the same successful business building strategies we have adopted over many years, adjusting as appropriate for our greater size and the evolving market dynamics.
On behalf of all Directors, we extend our thanks to management and staff for their dedication and effort. We look forward to working with them on another year of opportunity and growth.

Remuneration Report
The report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for Directors and Senior Executives of the Group.
The information provided in this Remuneration Report has been audited as required by section 308 (3C) of the Corporations Act 2001 .
Remuneration Committee
The Remuneration Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board on remuneration policies and packages applicable to the directors and senior executives of the Group.
The broad remuneration policy is to ensure that the remuneration package of directors and senior executives properly reflects the person's duties and responsibilities and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people.
The Remuneration Committee assesses the appropriateness of the amount of remuneration of directors and senior executives on an annual basis by reference to relevant employment market data.
Non-executive Director Compensation
The Board seeks to set Non-executive Director compensation at a level which enables the Company to attract and retain suitably qualified directors at a cost which is acceptable to shareholders.
Non-executive directors receive an annual fee for being a director of the Company with no provision for retirement benefits. These fees are determined by reference to industry standards taking into account the Company's relative size. No additional payments are made for serving on Board Committees and no performance related compensation or equity incentives are offered.
The present maximum aggregate sum for Non-executive Directors is $600,000. This amount was approved by shareholders at the 2024 Annual General Meeting.
The compensation of Non-executive Directors for the period ended 30 June 2025 is detailed in Table 1 on page 11.

SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED TO 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
Executive Director and Senior Executives Compensation
The Group aims to reward its Executive Director and senior managers (“executives”) with a level of compensation commensurate with the position and responsibilities within the Group, to link reward with performance of the Group and to ensure that total compensation is competitive by market standards.
Compensation consists of the following three elements:
-
fixed compensation;
-
variable compensation – short-term incentive; and
-
equity-based compensation – long-term incentive.
Fixed Compensation
The level of fixed compensation is set to provide compensation that is both appropriate to the position and competitive in the market place. The fixed compensation of the executives is reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee using relevant employment market data as a guide.
Executives are given the scope to tailor their fixed compensation package in a variety of forms including salary, non-monetary benefits and superannuation.
Variable Compensation – Short-term Incentive
The objective of the short-term incentive is to link the Group’s performance and operational targets with the compensation of the relevant executives. The short-term incentive is cash based and provides executives with the opportunity to earn incentives based on a percentage of fixed annual compensation.
The short-term incentive payable to executives is determined by the Board having regard to the performance of the Group and the relevant executives for the relevant year based on qualitative and/or quantitative factors including total shareholder return, return on average equity, return on investment and other business objectives. These factors were chosen as they focused on business performance, shareholder wealth and sustainable growth.
The cost of these incentives is deducted from the financial results before determining the performance rewards.
On an annual basis, after completion of the audit of the Group’s financial statements, the short-term incentives payable are approved by the Board.
Equity-based Compensation – Long-term Incentive
Employee incentive plan shares have been issued under the Supply Network Limited Employee Incentive Plan (“EIP”) which was reapproved at the 2023 AGM.
An EIP share is a right to receive one ordinary share in the Company at a point in the future subject to meeting specified service and performance and/or other conditions (collectively called “vesting conditions”). If the applicable vesting conditions are met, the EIP shares will vest and may be exercised by the holder of the EIP share in return for an ordinary share in the Company. EIP shares do not vest unless the vesting conditions are met.
The Remuneration Committee has set service and performance vesting conditions as part of the remuneration packages in accordance with the terms of the EIP. The conditions have been set in advance, taking into account expected profit growth.
EIP Shares
EIP shares, approved by shareholders and issued to executives, are valued using the volume weighted average market price of the ordinary shares of the Company on the ASX for the five-trading day period ending at market close at grant date.

SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1. Corporate information
The consolidated financial statements of Supply Network Limited (the Company) for the year ended 30 June 2025 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 25 August 2025.
Supply Network Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia, and whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange.
The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Company are described in the Directors’ Report.
2. Summary of material accounting policies
(a) Basis of accounting
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards. These financial statements have also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for selected financial assets and liabilities, which have been measured at fair value. The Company is a for profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000) unless otherwise stated, under the option available to the Company under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 . The Company is an entity to which the instrument applies.
(b) Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements of Supply Network Limited also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
(c) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Supply Network Limited and the subsidiaries it controlled at the end of or during the financial year (the “Group”).
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-company balances and transactions, income and expenses and profits and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Subsidiaries are also carried at amortised cost in the parent company’s financials.
(d)
Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
(i) Significant accounting judgements
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has not made any significant judgements, apart from those involving estimates.

SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
(d) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued)
(ii) Significant accounting estimates and assumptions
The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:
Obsolete inventory provision
Provision is made for anticipated obsolete and redundant inventories. This requires an estimation to be made based on expected sales volumes and current inventory levels.
(e) Foreign currency transactions
Both the functional and presentation currency of Supply Network Limited and its Australian subsidiaries are Australian dollars ($). Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. These differences are included in other comprehensive income.
Foreign subsidiary company
The functional currency of the foreign operation, Multispares N.Z. Limited, is New Zealand dollars (“NZ $”).
As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary are translated into the presentation currency of Supply Network Limited at the exchange rate ruling at the reporting date and its profit or loss is translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the year.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date of the initial transaction.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.
The exchange differences arising on the translation are taken directly to a separate component of equity.
On disposal of a foreign entity, the deferred cumulative amount recognised in equity relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in profit or loss.
(f) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the Statement of Financial Position comprises cash at bank, on deposit and in hand with a maturity of three months or less.
For the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts and bank trade facilities.

2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
(g) Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables, which generally have 30-day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less any allowance for expected credit losses.
The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade and other receivables have been grouped based on days overdue.
(h) Inventories
Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition is accounted for as follows:
Finished Goods – weighted average cost into store.
(i) Property, plant and equipment
Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:
Plant and equipment
3 – 15 years
(j) Derivative financial instruments
The Group occasionally uses derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency contracts to hedge its risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are stated at market value. None of the forward exchange contracts qualify for hedge accounting and all gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are charged directly in profit or loss.
The fair value of forward exchange contracts is calculated by reference to current exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.
(k)
Employee leave benefits
-
(i) Wages, salaries and annual leave Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
-
(ii) Long service leave 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 employee departures, and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on Australian corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
(l) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from
20
SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
(l) Impairment of non-financial assets (continued)
other assets or groups of assets and the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value.
When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).
An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal, the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
(m) Revenue recognition
The Group recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services
(i) Sale of goods
Revenue from the sales of goods is recognised at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the goods, which is generally at the time of delivery.
(ii) Interest income
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
(iii) Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
(n) Income tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
21
SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
(n) Income tax (continued)
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences except:
-
when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
-
when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary
-
difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
-
when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
-
when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year in which the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted at the reporting date.
Income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
The tax consolidated current tax expense and other deferred tax assets are required to be allocated to the members of the tax consolidated group. The Group uses a group allocation method for this purpose where the allocated current tax payable, current tax loss, deferred tax assets and other tax credits for each member of the tax consolidated group is determined as if the Company is a standalone taxpayer but modified as necessary to recognise membership of a tax consolidated group. Recognition of amounts allocated to members of the tax consolidated group has regard to the tax consolidated group’s future tax profits.
22
SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
(o) Other taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
-
when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
-
receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority, is classified as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(p)
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:
-
cost of servicing equity (other than dividends);
-
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
-
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares;
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
(q)
Non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale
Non-current assets and assets of disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continued use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs of disposal. For non-current assets or assets of disposal groups to be classified as held for sale, they must be available for immediate sale in their present condition and their sale must be highly probable.
An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write down of the non-current assets and assets of disposal groups to fair value less costs of disposal. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs of disposal of a non-current assets and assets of disposal groups, but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised.
Non-current assets are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of assets held for sale continue to be recognised.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of disposal groups classified as held for sale are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position, in current assets.

(r) New, revised or amending Accounting standards and interpretations adopted
The Group has applied all new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. There has been no material impact on adoption of these standards.
(s) New Accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted
AASB 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
AASB 18 was issued in June 2024 and replaces AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements . The new standard introduces new requirements for the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, including:
-
new categories for the classification of income and expenses into operating, investing and financing categories, and
-
presentation of subtotals for “operating profit and “profit before financing and income taxes”.
Additional disclosure requirements are introduced for management-defined performance measures and new principles for aggregation and disaggregation of information in the notes and the primary financial statement and the presentation of interest and dividends in the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for annual years beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and will apply to the Company for the financial year ending 30 June 2028.
This new standard is not expected to have an impact on the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities income and expenses, however there will likely be changes in how the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and statement of financial position line items are presented as well as some additional disclosures in the notes to the financial statements. Management is in the process of assessing the impact of the new standard.
Certain amendments to accounting standards have been published that are not mandatory for the 30 June 2025 reporting year and have not been early adopted by the Company. These amendments are not expected to have material impact on the Company in the current or future reporting years and on foreseeable future transactions.
There are no other new accounting standards and interpretations that have been issued, but not yet effective that are material to the financial statements or have been early adopted for the 30 June 2025 reporting period.

(d) Tax consolidation
Supply Network Limited and its wholly owned Australian entities elected to form a tax consolidated group from 1 July 2003. The accounting policy in relation to this legislation is set out in Note 2(n).
The members of the tax consolidated group have entered into a tax sharing agreement which, in the opinion of the directors, would limit the joint and several liabilities of the wholly owned entities for future income taxes of the tax consolidated group in the case of a default by the head entity, Supply Network Limited. At reporting date, the possibility of default is considered remote.
For the current year the entities have decided to enter into a tax funding agreement under which the funding amounts are based on the amounts of current tax expense allocated to the subsidiary and recognised by it in accordance with the accounting policy. The funding amounts are recognised as an increase/decrease in the subsidiaries' inter-company accounts with the tax consolidated group head company. The amounts receivable/payable under the tax funding agreement are due upon receipt of the funding advice from the head entity, which is issued as soon as practicable after the end of each financial year. The head entity may also require payment of interim funding amounts to assist with its obligations to pay tax instalments. The funding amounts are recognised in the current inter-company receivables or payables.

20. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing net profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
The following reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

28. Key economic risks
Financial risk management
The Group’s principal financial instruments, other than derivatives, comprise cash, bank loans and bank overdrafts. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to finance the Group’s operations.
The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. Occasionally the Group also enters into derivative transactions, principally forward currency contracts, the purpose of which is to manage the currency risk arising from the Group’s operations. It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the Group’s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken. The main risks arising from the Group’s operations are interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group also has to manage its capital. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.
(a) Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk through financial assets and liabilities. The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings (refer Note 13).
The following table summarises interest rate risk for the Group together with effective interest rates as at reporting date.
| Financial instruments - Contractual maturities Floating interest rate (i) $000 |

(i) The floating interest rate is the most recently determined rate applicable to the instrument at reporting date. Floating rate liabilities and non-interest bearing liabilities have contractual maturities of between 1-5 years.
The Group may use a mix of fixed and variable rate debt.
Fixed interest rate debts are used for long-term funding. Amounts and maturity dates of long-term funding for interest rate repricing vary depending on the interest rates offered at date of maturity. At reporting date, maturity dates range from 1-3 years.
Variable rate facilities such as bank overdrafts and trade facility are used for short-term funding and are subject to annual renewal and market fluctuations in interest rates.
Surplus funds are invested with banks in short-term call accounts and are subject to market fluctuations in interest rates.
Management has assessed the impact of any changes of effective interest rates and has determined there would be minimal effect on the Group’s profit after income tax.

SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
28. Key economic risks (continued)
(b) Foreign exchange risk
The Group is exposed to the risk of adverse movements in the Australian dollar relative to certain foreign currencies.
Management has assessed the impact of a material movement in the Australian dollar exchange rate on trade payables and has determined that there would be minimal effect on the Group’s profit after income tax.
The Group has an investment in a foreign subsidiary operation whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency translation risk. Currency exposure arising from this foreign operation is managed primarily through borrowings in that subsidiary’s foreign currency.
(c) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises primarily from the financial assets of the Group, which comprises cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables.
The Group’s maximum exposures to credit risk at reporting date in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is the carrying amount of those assets as indicated in the Statement of Financial Position.
The Group minimises concentrations of credit risk in relation to trade receivables by undertaking transactions with a large number of customers from across the range of business segments in which the Group operates.
Credit risk in trade receivables is managed in the following ways:
-
(a) payment terms are cash or 30 days;
-
(b) a risk assessment process is used for customers trading outside agreed terms; and
-
(c) all new accounts are reviewed for past credit performance.
An allowance for impairment loss is recognised when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect a trade receivable.
(d) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. Liquidity is managed to ensure, as far as possible, that sufficient funds are available to meet liabilities when they fall due without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate banking facilities and borrowing facilities by regularly monitoring forecasts and actual cash flows and matching maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. See Note 24(b) for undrawn facilities the Group has available to further reduce liquidity risk.
41
SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 (continued)
28. Key economic risks (continued)
(e) Capital risk management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.
The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which comprises borrowings (refer Note 13), cash and cash equivalents (refer Note 5) and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital (refer Note 17), reserves (refer Note 18) and retained earnings.
The Board reviews the capital structure on a regular basis. As part of this review the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital is considered. The Group balances its overall capital structure through the payment of dividends, the operation of dividend reinvestment plan, new share issues, share buy-backs and additional borrowings as appropriate.
29. Related party transactions
-
(a) Transactions between related parties are on normal commercial terms and conditions no more favourable than those available to other parties unless otherwise stated. Other than Note 22 (key management personal payments), there are no related party transactions for the 2025 and 2024 financial years.
-
(b) The names of each person holding the position of Director of Supply Network Limited during the last two financial years were: R D Fraser (from 12 April 2024), G D H Stewart, G J Forsyth, P W Gill and P W McKenzie.
(c) Investments in controlled entities
| Country of Incorporation | |
|---|---|
| Supply Network Services Limited | Australia |

The controlled entities were 100% owned for the years ended 30 June 2025 and 30 June 2024.
30. Contingencies, commitments, and guarantees
As at the reporting date, the Group and parent company have no material contingent liabilities or contingent assets requiring disclosure.
The Group and parent company also have no material capital or other commitments contracted for at the reporting date but not recognised in the financial statements.
Furthermore, there are no guarantees or other off-balance sheet financial arrangements that require disclosure under applicable Australian Accounting Standards.

SUPPLY NETWORK LIMITED CONSOLIDATED ENTITY DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AS AT 30 JUNE 2025
Basis of preparation

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Supply Network Limited
REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL REPORT
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Supply Network Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (collectively “the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, 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, and notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2025 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
-
(b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

inventory counted and inventories shown in the Group’s inventory records.
-
(d) We reviewed records of physical movement of inventories before and after the year end to ensure that these items had been included in the correct accounting period.
-
In relation to Valuation we:
-
(a) Tested the recorded cost of a sample of items on hand at interim date to purchase invoices, including invoices for freight and other costs associated with bringing the items to their present location. We then performed analytical review of interim date valuations against 30 June stock report.
-
(b) Evaluated management’s process for identifying slow-moving inventories and tested the accuracy of reports used by management in making their estimates of net realisable value.
-
(c) Considered the assumptions made by management and compared them with historical experience of the sale of inventories by the Group.
We reviewed the accounting policies used by the Group for inventories, and the disclosures in the financial report.
Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2025, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of:
46
==> picture [595 x 100] intentionally omitted <==
-
(a) the financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001; and
-
(b) the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , and
for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of:
-
(a) the financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
-
(b) the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
47
==> picture [596 x 100] intentionally omitted <==
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
REPORT ON THE REMUNERATION REPORT
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 8 to 11 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2025.
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Supply Network Limited for the year ended 30 June 2025 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 .
