1 Aggregated revenue is defined as statutory revenue and other income plus share of revenue from associates less procurement services revenue at nil margin, interest income and net gain on revaluation of investments previously accounted for as equity accounted associates. The directors of the Company believe the disclosure of revenue attributable to associates provides additional information in relation to the financial performance of the Group.

The Group has acquired additional interest in an entity which had previously been accounted for as an equity accounted associate. This acquisition resulted in the change in the nature of the investment from equity accounted associate to subsidiary of the Company. As part of the accounting for the acquisition, the original investment held in this entity was remeasured to fair value and a fair value gain of $7.6 million was recognized in the statement of financial performance. During the year ended 30 June 2011, the Group acquired additional interests in a number of entities which had previously been accounted for as equity accounted associates. A net fair value gain of $65.7million was recognized in the statement of financial performance for that year.

The results excluding the net gains on revaluation of investments previously accounted for as equity accounted associates are as follows:

Ordinary shares entitle their holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at a meeting of the Company.

Exchangeable shares

(B) ASBESTOS

Certain subsidiaries acquired as part of the Parsons acquisition (Parsons E&C), have been, and continue to be, the subject of litigation relating to the handling of, or exposure to, asbestos. Due to the continuation and extension of the existing indemnity and asbestos claims administration arrangements between Parsons Corporation and Parsons E&C Corporation, the Group is not aware of any circumstance that is likely to lead to a residual contingent exposure for the Group in respect of asbestos liabilities.

(C) ACTUAL AND PENDING CLAIMS

The Company is subject to various actual and pending claims arising in the normal course of business. The Company has regular claims reviews, including updates from corporate and outside counsel, to assess the needs for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies.
