Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited 30 June 2022
A single Simplified Disclosures standard to replace Reduced Disclosure Requirements
AASB 1053 Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards requires preparers to assess whether the
entity is publicly accountable to determine if it qualifies for the preparation of Tier 2 general purpose financial
statements under the differential reporting regime.
AASB 1060 General Purpose Financial Statements Simplified Disclosures for For-Profit and Not-for-Profit Tier 2
Entities, replaces the current suite of Reduced Disclosure Requirements (RDR) disclosures. AASB 1060 is a new
single general purpose financial statements (GPFS)-Tier 2 Simplified Disclosures (SD) standard. It is principally
based on the disclosures included in the IFRS for SMEs
®
Standard, with some adjustment for the Australian
context. It will apply to all entities (both for-profit and not-for-profit) preparing financial statements under Tier 2,
both those currently reporting under the existing RDR framework and those that will be required to stop preparing
special purpose financial statements (SPFS) and be required to prepare GPFS.
AASB 1060 works in conjunction with AASB 2020-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards Removal
of Special Purpose Financial Statements for Certain For-Profit Private Sector Entitiesthe Australian Accounting
Standard (AAS) that removed the ability of certain for-profit private sector entities to prepare SPFS.
Key features
Entities preparing GPFS-Tier 2 SD must comply with all recognition and measurement (R&M) requirements of
AAS, i.e. there is no impact on existing R&M requirements of AAS.
AASB 1060 is a single standard containing all the required disclosures for an entity preparing GPFS-Tier 2 SD.
Thi
s means that those AAS only dealing with presentation and disclosure (including AASB 7 Financial
Instruments: Disclosures, AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, AASB 101 Presentation of
Financial Statements, AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows and AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures) hav
e
been
incorporated into AASB 1060 but without all the additional guidance contained in those standards.
AASB 1060 instructs entities to refer to these presentation and disclosure standards for guidance w
hen
need
ed.
Entities that comply with AASB 1060 are exempt from the disclosure requirements in specified paragraphs in
other AAS.
There is an option where specific conditions are met for an entity not to present a statement of changes in
equ
ity, which if elected would result in a presentation difference to GPFS-Tier 1.
The Standard applies whether consolidated or separate financial statements are presented.
While AASB 1060 includes certain presentation requirements, these do not result in presentations or
classifications that are different to those required for Tier 1 entities. The only exceptions are:
the option not to include a separate statement of changes in equity in certain circumstances; and
no requirement to separate the share of other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures
accounted for by the equity method between items that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss,
and those that will.
Effective date and transition
AASB 1060, together with AASB 2020-2 apply for financial reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2021.Both
standards need to be applied at the same time. Comparative disclosures are required for all disclosures.

The table below sets out the available transitional relief for entities applying the standards for the first time in years
beginning on or after 1 July 2021.
The transition provisions are included in the amendments to AASB 1053 Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting
Standards. An entity need not apply the transitional relief in which case it will apply a fully retrospective transition in
accordance with AASB 108 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors.
Transitional relief explained
The transitional provisions explained below must be considered in the context of the table above. The flow
diagram below illustrates the transitional relief available depending on an entity’s circumstances.
C
orrection of errors
For entities moving from SPFS and applying GPFS-Tier 2 SD reporting requirements for the first time there is no
requirement to distinguish between the correction of errors and changes in accounting policies if the entity
becomes aware of errors made in its most recent previous SPFS.
This means that an entity that discovered an error in its previous SPFS does not need to separately address this in
its first GPFS-Tier 2 SD financial statements and is able to apply the transitional relief in AASB 1 First-time
Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards or elect to apply AASB 108 (i.e. fully retrospectively).

Application of AASB 1
When applying GPFS-Tier 2 SD reporting requirements for the first time (i.e. the entity prepared its most recent
previous financial statements in the form of SPFS):
OptionsNot all R&M
The entity applies either:
all relevant requirements of AASB 1 (i.e. provides some relief from full retrospective application), or
GPFS-Tier 2 SD reporting requirements directly using the requirements of AASB 108 (i.e. full retrospective
application).
All R&M
For entities preparing SPFS that are already complying with the R&M requirements in AAS, and consolidating
subsidiaries and equity accounting investments in associates and joint ventures (if applicable), the transition from
SPFS to GPFS-Tier 2 SD will be limited to the provision of additional disclosures.
Transition from GPFS-Tier 2 RDR to GPFS-Tier 2 SD
While applying GPFS-Tier 2 RDR all R&M requirements will have been complied with as such if an entity
transitions from GPFS-Tier 2 RDR to GPFS-Tier 2 SD, neither AASB 1 nor AASB 108 have to be applied as there
will not be any adjustments.
What will change are the disclosures in the first GPFS-Tier 2 SD financial statements they will need to align to
AASB 1060.

Framework, and the transition to GPFS-Tier 2 SD:

How to use Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited 30 June
2022
The purpose of Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited is to assist in the preparation of an entity’s
annual financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures, and that also
meet statutory requirements under the Corporations Act 2001 for financial years ending on or after 30 June
2022. Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited is a for-profit entity preparing consolidated financial
statements.
In addition, Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited is adopting AASB 1060 for the first time, applying
GPFS-Tier 2 SD, having previously applied GPFS-Tier 2 RDR. Appendix 2
provides illustrative disclosures for a for-
profit entity adopting GPFS-Tier 2 SD for the first time having prepared special purpose financial statements in its
most recent financial statements. Appendix
2 includes disclosures where neither consolidation nor equity
accounting was previously applied and the entity applies AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting
Standards on transition to GPFS-Tier 2 SD.
This publication illustrates one possible format for Tier 2 statutory general purpose financial statements, based on
a fictitious corporation involved in general business. Accordingly, a number of notes are not applicable to
Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited and have not been included in the main body of the financial
report. However, Appendix 3
includes illustrations of additional notes if they were to be prepared under Tier 2
requirements.
This publication should not be used as a boiler plate template. The preparation of financial statements requires
judgement, in terms of the choice of accounting policies, how the disclosures should be tailored to reflect the
entity’s specific circumstances, and the materiality of disclosures in the context of the entity.
This publication reflects Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures on issue as at 31 August 2021
that must be applied by an entity with an annual period beginning on 1 July 2021 (“currently effective”
requirements), including AASB 2020-2 and AASB 1060. All other Australian Accounting Standards that are
effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2022 (“forthcoming” requirements) have not been early
adopted.

6. Significant changes in the state of affairs
In August 2021, the Group sold its entire packaging line of business. The Group was committed to
a plan to sell this division due to a strategic decision to change the direction of the Group in late
2021.
On 30 September 2021, the Group acquired 75% of the shares and voting interests in Papyrus for
a total cash consideration of $2,935 thousand. As a result, the Group’s equity interest in Papyrus
increased from 25 to 100%, granting it control of Papyrus.
Taking control of Papyrus will enable the Group to modernise its production process through
access to Papyrus’s patented technology. The acquisition is also expected to provide the Group
with an increased share of the standard paper market through access to Papyrus’s customer base.
The Group also expects to reduce costs through economies of scale.
In 2022, a majority of the Company’s shares were acquired by Cameron Paper Co from Brown
Products Corporation. As a result, the new ultimate controlling party of the Group is AJ
Pennypacker. The previous ultimate controlling party was Sigma Australia Investment Holdings.

8. Events subsequent to reporting date
At the end of July 2022, the Group a
nnounced its intention to implement a cost-reduction
programme and to take further measures to reduce costs. Additionally, to enable the Group to
adapt its size to current market conditions, it intends to reduce the Group’s workforce by 400
positions worldwide by the end of 2022/23, by means of non-replacement whenever possible. The
Group expects the restructuring associated with the reduction in positions to cost between $600
thousand and $850 thousand in 2023 and 2024.
Subsequent to 30 June 2022, one of the Group’s major trade customers went into liquidation
following a natural disaster in August 2022 that damaged its operating plant. Of the $100 thousand
owed by the customer, the Group expects to recover less than $10 thousand. No additional
allowance for impair
ment has been made in these consolidated financial statements.
On 10 July 2022, one
of the premises of the Group’s material subsidiary, having a carrying amount
of $220 thousand, was seriously damaged by fire. Surveyors are in the process of assessing the
extent of the loss, following which t
he Group will file a claim for reimbursement with the insurance
company. The Group
is unable to estimate the incremental costs relating to refurbishment and
temporary shift of production to other locations (in excess of the reimbursement expected).
As reported in the condensed interim financial statements on 22 January 2022, the Group
announced its intention to acquire all of the shares of ABC Company for $6,500 thousand. On 4
July 2022, the Group’s shareholders approved the transaction and the Group is now awaiting
approval from regulatory authorities before proceeding with the acquisition. Management
anticipates that this approval will be received by October 2022.
Subsequent to 30 June 2022, the loan covenant maximum leverage ratio (calculated as debt to
quarterly revenue for continuing operations) related to a secured bank loan was revised from 2.5 to
3
.5 times.
O
ther than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of
the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and
unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the directors of the Group, to affect significantly the
operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group, in
future financial years.
9. Likely developments
T
he Group will continue to pursue its policy of increasing the profitability and market share of its
major business sectors during the next financial year. This will require further investment in areas
such as manufacturing and sale of paper, which have performed well over recent years and offer
sound opportunities for future development.
Further information about likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected
results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this report because
disclosure of the information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.
10. Directors’ interests and share options

company and there are no options on issue. Refer to sections 11 and 12 of the Directors’ Report in

agreement for indemnifying against a liability any person who is or has been an officer or auditor of
the Group.
Insurance premiums
During the financial year the Company has paid premiums in respect of directors’ and officers’
liability and legal expenses insurance contracts for the year ended 30 June 2022 and since the
financial year, the Company has paid premiums in respect of such insurance contracts for the year
ending 30 June 2022. Such insurance contracts insure against certain liability (subject to specific
exclusions) persons who are or have been directors or executive officers of the Group.
The directors have not included details of the nature of the liabilities covered or the amount of the
premiums paid in respect of the directors’ and officers’ liability and legal expenses insurance
contracts, as such disclosure is prohibited under the terms of the contract.

a.
An entity may also use other titles e.g. ‘balance sheet’ as long as the meaning is clear and the title not misleading. There is no
prescribed sequence or format in which items are to be presented in the statement of financial position. Additional line items may
be included when the size, nature or function of an item or aggregation of similar items is such that separate presentation is
relevant to an understanding of the entity’s financial position. The descriptions used and the sequencing of items or aggregation
of similar items may be amended according to the nature of the entity and its transactions, to provide information that is relevant
to an understanding of the entity’s financial position. The judgement of whether additional line items are presented separately is
based on the assessment of the amounts, nature and liquidity of assets and liabilities, and the function of assets within the entity.
AASB 1060.35, 44
b.
AASB 1060 sets out the minimum line items to be included in the statement of financial position. Further sub-classifications of the
line items presented, classified in a manner appropriate to the entity’s operations, may be disclosed either in the statement of
financial position or in the notes.
AASB 16.47(a)
c.
The Group has presented right-of-use assets within ‘property, plant and equipment’ i.e. the same line item in which it presents
underlying assets of the same nature that it owns. Alternatively, an entity may choose to present right-of-use assets separately in
the statement of financial position.
AASB 1060.44(f), 45
d.
Although it is not specifically required, the Group has presented in the statement of financial position line items related to
classification of equity into share capital, retained earnings and reserves.
The Group has presented in the statement of changes in equity and in the notes further information about each class of share
capital and each reserve within equity.

AASB 1060.25(b)
a.
The Group has elected to present comprehensive income using a ‘single-statement’ approach. For an illustration of the alternative
‘two-statement’ approach, see Example Public Company Limited: Guide to annual reports illustrative disclosures 2021-2022
[Appendix 2].
AASB 1060.50
b.
If an entity changes its presentation of total comprehensive income for the period from the single-statement approach to the two-
statement approach, or vice versa, it has to apply AASB 108 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors to a
change in accounting policy.
AASB 1060.26
c.
If the only changes to equity during the periods for which financial statements are presented arise from profit or loss, payment of
dividends, corrections of prior period errors, and changes in accounting policy, the entity may present a single statement of
income and retained earnings in place of the statement of comprehensive income and statement of changes in equity. For an
illustration of the single statement of income and retained earnings, see Appendix 1.
AASB 1060.58
d.
The Group has elected to analyse expenses recognised in profit or loss based on functions within the Group. Alternatively, an
entity may present the analysis based on nature if this presentation provides information that is reliable and more relevant. The
analysis may also be presented in the notes.
AASB 1060.52(g)(i)
e.
No items of OCI that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss have arisen in the current or prior periods. When they
arise, an entity presents each such item of OCI classified by nature and group them accordingly. This sub-heading may be omitted
where there are no such items.
AASB 1060.52(g)-(h)
f.
The share of OCI of associates and joint ventures accounted for under the equity method is not disclosed separately by items that
will not subsequently be reclassified to profit or loss and those that will,
AASB 1060.52(i)
g.
If an entity has no items of OCI, another term, such as profit or loss, may be used instead of total comprehensive income.

a.
If the only changes to equity during the periods for which financial statements are presented arise from profit or loss, payment of
dividends, corrections of prior period errors, and changes in accounting policy, the entity may present a single statement of
income and retained earnings in place of the statement of comprehensive income and statement of changes in equity. Refer to
Appendix 1 for the illustrative consolidated statement of income and retained earnings.

Amounts transferred to the profits reserve characterise profits available for distribution as dividends in future years and reflects
the amounts transferred by individuals in the Group and is therefore not necessarily equivalent to the consolidated Group profit for
the year.

AASB 1060.70
a.
The Group has elected to present cash flows from operating activities using the direct method. Alternatively, an entity may
present operating cash flows using the indirect method, whereby profit or loss is adjusted for the effects of non-cash transactions
(see Example Public Company Limited: Guide to annual reports illustrative disclosures 2021-2022 for example presentation).
AASB 1060.69(e),
AASB 16.50
b.
The Group has classified:
cash payments for the principal portion of lease payments as financing activities;
cash payments for the interest portion of lease liabilities as operating activities consistent with the presentation of interest
payments chosen by the Group (see footnote (c) below); and
short-term lease payments and payments for leases of low-value assets as operating activities.
AASB 1060.82-84,
Insights 2.3.50.10-20
c.
AASB 1060 requires cash flows from interest and dividends received and paid to be disclosed separately. In our view, such
disclosure is required in the statement of cash flows, rather than in the notes. In the absence of specific guidance in the
Standards, an entity chooses an accounting policy, to be applied consistently, for classifying interest and dividends paid as either
operating or financing activities, and interest and dividends received as either operating or investing activities. The Group has
elected to classify cash flows from interest paid as operating activities, cash flows from interest received and dividends received
as investing activities, and cash flows from dividends paid as financing activities.
Interest paid includes the interest portion of the lease liabilities. See footnote (b) above.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
a
1. Reporting entity
AASB 1060.31(a), 32(a)
Example Proprietary Limited (the Company) is domiciled in Australia. The Company’s registered office is at
[address].
AASB 1060.31(b), 104(a)
These consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the
‘Group’).
AASB 1060.11(b), 32(b)
The Group is a for-profit entity and is primarily involved in manufacturing paper and paper-related products.
2. Basis of preparation
AASB 1060.10, 11(a),
104(a),
Corporations Act 2001
Sect 296-297
These consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements for distribution to the members
and for the purpose of fulfilling the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. They have been prepared in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures made by the Australian Accounting
Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
AASB 1060.208
AASB 1053.E4
These consolidated financial statements are the first general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance
with Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures. In the prior year the consolidated financial
statements were general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards Reduced Disclosure Requirements. There was no impact on the recognition and measurement of
amounts recognised in the statements of financial position, profit and loss and other comprehensive income and
cash flows of the Group as a result of the change in the basis of preparation.
b,c
AASB 1060.186
These consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Company’s board of directors on [date].
AASB 91(a), 94
Details of the Group’s accounting policies are included in Note 35.
3. Functional and presentation currency and rounding
AASB 1060.31(d)-(e),
181,
ASIC Instrument
2016/191
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional
currency. The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports)
Instrument 2016/191 and in accordance with that instrument, amounts in the consolidated financial statements
and directors’ report have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated.
d
AASB 1060.9293
a.
Notes are presented, to the extent practicable, in a systematic order and are cross-referred to/from items in the primary
statements. In determining a systematic manner of presentation, an entity considers the effect on the understandability and
comparability of the financial statements. The Group has applied judgement in presenting related information together in a manner
that it considers to be most relevant to an understanding of its financial performance and financial position. The order presented is
only illustrative and entities need to tailor the organisation of the notes to fit their specific circumstances.
AASB 1060.26
b.
While AASB 1060 includes certain presentation requirements, these do not result in presentations or classifications that are
different to those required for Tier 1 entities. Entities are permitted to refer to other Standards for guidance on the requirements
in AASB 1060. The only exception is the option not to include a separate statement of changes in equity in certain circumstances,
as set out below.
If an entity elects to present a single statement of income and retained earnings in place of the statement of comprehensive
income and statement of changes in equity, this should be disclosed. The appropriate wording would be:
“The only changes to equity during the periods for which the financial statements are presented arise from [profit or loss,
payment of dividends, corrections of prior period errors, and changes in accounting policy] [delete those items that are not
applicable]. In accordance with the options available in the accounting standards, the Group has elected to present a single
statement of income and retained earnings in place of the statement of comprehensive income and statement of changes in
equity.”
c.
Where prior to AASB 1060 all recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards (including
consolidation and equity accounting) were not applied, refer to
Appendix 2 for disclosures.
ASIC Instrument
2016/191
d.
Where an entity applies the rounding relief available in ASIC Instrument 2016/191, certain amounts are required to be rounded to
a lower level. ASIC Instrument 2016/191 specifies those amounts with reference to particular disclosure paragraphs in AAS (e.g.
AASB 2.50, AASB 124.17). The ASIC Instrument has not been updated for the equivalent paragraphs in AASB 1060 where an
entity applies Tier 2 Simplified Disclosures. This guide applies the requirements in the legislative instrument as if it refers to the
corresponding disclosure requirements in AASB 1060.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements (continued)
4. Use of judgements and estimates
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that
affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income
and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised
prospectively.
AASB 1060.96
A. Judgements
Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the
amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes:
Note 17investments in associates: whether the Group has significant influence over an associate;
Note 27(A
) lease term: whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise extension options;
Note 35(D)
revenue recognition: whether revenue from made-to-order paper products is recognised over
time or at a point in time.
AASB 1060.97
B. Assumptions and estimation uncertainties
a
Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties at 30 June 2022 that have a significant risk of
resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year is
included in the following notes:
Note 10(F)recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which deductible
temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilised;
Note 12(B)
measurement of ECL allowances for trade receivables and contract assets: determining loss
rates;
Note 16(C)
impairment test of intangible assets and goodwill: key assumptions underlying recoverable
amounts; and
Notes 23 and 29
recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies: key assumptions about the
likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources.
5. Discontinued operation
b
See accounting policy in Note 35(C).
AASB 1060.91(c)
In August 2021, the Group sold its entire packaging line of business. Management committed to a plan to sell this
business in mid-2021, following a strategic decision to place greater focus on the Group’s key competencies i.e.
the manufacture of paper used in the printing industry and forestry.
The packaging business was not previously classified as held-for-sale or as a discontinued operation. The
comparative consolidated statement of profit or loss and OCI has been re-presented to show the discontinued
operation separately from continuing operations.
Subsequent to the disposal, the Group has continued to purchase packaging from the discontinued operation.
Although intra-group transactions have been fully eliminated in the consolidated financial results, management
has elected to attribute the elimination of transactions between the continuing operations and the discontinued
operation before the disposal in a way that reflects the continuance of these transactions subsequent to the
disposal, because management believes this is useful to the users of the financial statements.
To achieve this presentation, management has eliminated from the results of the discontinued operation the inter-
company sales (and costs thereof, less unrealised profits) made before its disposal. Because purchases from the
discontinued operation will continue after the disposal, inter-company purchases made by the continuing
operations before the disposal are retained in continuing operations.
AASB 1060.97
a.
An entity discloses information about the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of information
uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and
liabilities within the next financial year
b.
AASB 1060 only requires the impact of a discontinued operation on the financial performance of the entity to be disclosed. No
other specific disclosures are required. The Group has disclosed information relating to the discontinued operation to provide
users of the financial statements with an understanding of the transactions that occurred during the financial year.

6. Revenue
See accounting policy in Note 35(D).
The Group generates revenue primarily from sale of paper and provision of forestry services to its customers.
Other sources of revenue include immaterial amounts related to hedge accounting and hedging gains.

a.
The extent to which an entity’s revenue is disaggregated for the purposes of this disclosure depends on the facts and
circumstances of the entity’s contracts with customers.
In determining the appropriate categories, an entity considers how revenue is disaggregated in:
disclosures presented outside the financial statements;
information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker for evaluating the financial performance of operating segments;
and
other similar information that is used by the entity or users of the entity’s financial statements to evaluate performance or
make resource allocation decisions.
Examples of categories that might be appropriate in disclosing disaggregated revenue include, but are not limited to, the
following.
Type of category
Example
Type of good or service
Major product lines
Geographic region
Country or region
Market or type of customer
Government and non-government customers
Type of contract
Fixed-price and time-and-materials contracts
Contract duration
Short-term and long-term contracts
Timing of transfer of goods or services
Goods or services transferred to customers:
at a point in time
over time
Sales channels
Goods or services sold:
directly to consumers
through intermediaries

land, the construction of the factory and the development of a new process in one of the factories.
AASB 1060.BC81
a.
Entities applying AASB 1060 are still expected to disclose information that is not presented elsewhere but that is relevant to an
understanding of the financial statement in accordance with paragraph 91(c). This would include information about individually
material items of income and expense where information about these items is necessary to assess the entity’s financial
performance.
Insights 4.1.30.1040
b.
There is no guidance in the Standards on how specific expenses are allocated to functions. An entity establishes its own
definitions of functions. In our view, cost of sales includes only expenses directly or indirectly attributable to the production
process. Only expenses that cannot be allocated to a specific function are classified as ‘other expenses’.
AASB 1060.169-170,
Insights 3.10.410.20
c.
The Group has classified expenses by function and has therefore allocated the impairment loss to the appropriate function, where
possible. In our view, in the rare case that an impairment loss cannot be allocated to a function, it should be included in ‘other
expenses’ as a separate line item if it is significant (e.g. impairment of goodwill), with additional information given in a note.

9. Share-based payment arrangements
a
See accounting policy in Note 35(E)(ii).
AASB 1060.164(a)
At 30 June 2022, the Group had only one type of share-based payment arrangements
b,c
cash-settled share
appreciation rights (SARs).
On 1 July 2016 and 1 July 2021, the Group granted 100,000 and 300,000 SARs, respectively, to employees that
entitle them to a cash payment after three years of service. The SARs expire at the end of a five-year period after
grant date. The amount of the cash payment is determined based on the increase in the share price of the
Company between grant date and the time of exercise.
Details of the liabilities arising from the SARs were as follows.

a.
Where an entity applies the rounding relief available in ASIC Instrument 2016/191, certain amounts are required to be rounded to
a lower level. ASIC Instrument 2016/191 specifies those amounts with reference to particular disclosure paragraphs in AAS (e.g.
AASB 2.50, AASB 124.17). The ASIC Instrument has not been updated for the equivalent paragraphs in AASB 1060 where an
entity applies Tier 2 Simplified Disclosures. This guide applies the requirements in the legislative instrument as if it refers to the
corresponding disclosure requirements in AASB 1060.
AASB 1060.164(b)
b.
Where an entity has share options, it discloses the number and weighted average exercise prices for each of the following groups
of options:
outstanding at the beginning of the period;
granted during the period;
forfeited during the period;
exercised during the period;
expired during the period;
outstanding at the end of the period; and
exercisable at the end of the period.
AASB 1060.165
c.
Where an entity has equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, it discloses how it measured the fair value of goods or
services received or the value of equity instruments granted. If a valuation methodology was used, the entity discloses the
method and its reason for choosing it.
d.
The changes in tax laws and the tax rates disclosed or applied throughout this guide to calculate the tax impact amounts are for
illustrative purposes only and do not reflect actual changes in tax laws or corporate tax rates in the respective jurisdictions. In
practice, the applicable changes in tax laws need to be considered. All tax impacts are calculated using the tax rate of 33%.

a.
Rather than presenting either a numerical reconciliation between total tax expense and the product of accounting profit multiplied
by the applicable tax rates, or a numerical reconciliation between the average effective tax rate and the applicable tax rate, the
Group has elected to present both. Only one form is required to be presented.
b.
The Group’s reconciliation of the effective tax rate is based on its domestic tax rate, with a reconciling item in respect of tax rates
applied by Group companies in other jurisdictions. The reconciliation of the effective tax rate is based on an applicable tax rate that
pr
ovides the most meaningful information to users. In some cases, it might be more meaningful to aggregate separat
e
reconciliations prepared using the domestic tax rate in each individual jurisdiction.

year and included in ‘cost of sales’.
AASB 1060.123(d)
In 2021, the Group tested the related product line for impairment (see Note 16(C)(i)) and wrote down the related
inventories to their net realisable value, which resulted in a loss of $42 thousand. In 2022, following a change in
estimates, $10 thousand of the write-down was reversed.
In addition, inventories have been reduced by $345 thousand (2021: $125 thousand) as a result of the write-down
to net realisable value. This write-down was recognised as an expense during 2022.
The write-downs and reversals are included in ‘cost of sales’.
AASB 15.B21
a.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and other standards do not specify where assets for rights to recover products
from customers with regards to sales with a right of return should be presented. The Group has included the assets in
‘inventories’ and disclosed them separately in the note.

A. Transfer of trade receivables
AASB 1060.116(a)-(b),
117
The Group sold with recourse trade receivables to a bank for cash proceeds. These trade receivables have not
been derecognised from the statement of financial position, because the Group retains substantially all of the
risks and rewards primarily credit risk. The amount received on transfer has been recognised as a secured bank
loan (see
Note 20(A)). The arrangement with the bank is such that the customers remit cash directly to the Group
and the Group transfers the collected amounts to the bank.
The receivables are considered to be held within a held-to-collect business model consistent with the Group’s
continuing recognition of the receivables.
The following information shows the carrying amount of trade receivables at the reporting date that have been
transferred but have not been derecognised and the associated liabilities.

expected loss rates. The expected loss rates applied as at 30 June 2022 vary from 1% for receivables that are
more than 30 days past due to 44% for receivables that are more than 120 days past due (30 June 2021from

C. Change in estimates
AASB 1060.109
In 2022, the Group conducted an operational efficiency review at one of its plants, which resulted in changes in
the expected usage of certain dyeing equipment. The dyeing equipment, which management had previously
intended to sell after five years of use, is now expected to remain in production for 12 years from the date of
purchase. As a result, the expected useful life of the equipment increased and its estimated residual value
decreased. The effect of these changes on actual and expected depreciation expense, included in ‘cost of sales’,
was as follows.

i. Impairment loss and subsequent reversal in relation to a new product
In 2021, a regulatory inspection revealed that a new product did not meet certain environmental standards,
necessitating substantial changes to the manufacturing process. Before the inspection, the product was expected
to be available for sale in 2022; however, as a result of the regulatory restrictions, production and the expected
launch date were deferred.
Accordingly, management estimated the recoverable amount of the CGU (the product line) in 2021, assuming that
the production line would go live in April 2023.
In 2022, following certain changes to the recovery plan, the Group reassessed its estimates and reversed part of
the initially recognised impairment.
AASB 1060.97
The estimate of value in use was determined using a pre-tax discount rate of 10.5% (2021: 9.8%) and a terminal
value growth rate of 3% from 2026 (2021: 3% from 2025).
AASB 1060.169-170,
Insights 3.10.410.20
a.
The Group has classified expenses by function and has therefore allocated the impairment loss to the appropriate function. In our
view, in the rare case that an impairment loss cannot be allocated to a function, it should be included in ‘other expenses’ as a
separate line item if it is significant (e.g. impairment of goodwill), with additional information given in a note.

On 30 September 2021, the Group’s equity interest in its material associate, Papyrus (2021: $453 thousand),
increased from 25 to 100% and Papyrus became a subsidiary from that date (see Note 26). Papyrus is one of the
Group’s strategic suppliers and is principally engaged in the production of paper pulp.
The Group’s share of results of Papyrus for the period from 1 July 2021 to 30 September 2021 (the acquisition
date) comprised profit and OCI of $69 thousand and minus $102 thousand respectively (2021: $213 thousand and
minus $138 thousand respectively).
The Group also has interests in a number of individually immaterial associates. For one of these associates; the
Group owns 20% of the equity interests but has less than 20% of the voting rights; however, the Group has
determined that it has significant influence because it has meaningful representation on the board of the investee.

AASB 1060 requires an entity to disclose information that enables users of its financial statements to evaluate the significance of
financial instruments for its financial position and performance. For example, for long-term debt such information would normally
include the terms and conditions of the debt instrument (such as interest rate, maturity, repayment schedule, and restrictions that
the debt instrument imposes on the entity). AASB 1060 does not mandate a maturity analysis by time bands, except for lease
payments – see
Note 27(A); however, an entity may present such analysis if it determines it is an appropriate disclosure to satisfy
the requirements in paragraph 114.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements (continued)
20. Loans and borrowings (continued)
A. Terms and repayment schedule (continued)
As disclosed below, the Group has a secured bank loan that contains a loan covenant. A future breach of
covenant may require the Group to repay the loan earlier than indicated in the above table. In addition, convertible
notes will become repayable on demand in the Group’s net debt to adjusted equity ratio exceeds 1.95. Under the
agreement, the covenant is monitored on a regular basis and reported to management to ensure compliance with
the agreement.
B. Breach of loan covenant
AASB 1060.118
The Group has a secured bank loan with a carrying amount of $3,460 thousand at 30 June 2022 (2021: $3,460
thousand). This loan is repayable in tranches within five years. However, the loan contained a covenant stating
that at the end of each quarter the Group’s debt (defined in the covenant as the Group’s loans and borrowings
and trade and other payables) cannot exceed 2.5 times the Group’s quarterly revenue from continuing operations,
otherwise the loan will be repayable on demand.
The Group exceeded its maximum leverage threshold (loan covenant ratio, calculated as debt to quarterly revenue
for continuing operations) associated with a bank loan in the first quarter of 2022 and the threshold was still
exceeded as at 30 June 2022. However, management obtained a waiver from the bank in April 2022, which
extended for a period of 18 months until September 2023. Accordingly, the loan was not payable on demand at
30 June 2022.
a
Subsequent to 30 June 2022, the bank revised the loan covenant ratio from 2.5 to 3.5 times and the waiver was
lifted. On the basis of the new covenant and its forecasts, management believes that the risk of the new
covenant being breached is low.

In some circumstances, an entity may before the reporting date obtain from a lender an agreement to amend a lending
arrangement. Such amendments may defer the date as at which information is assessed for testing covenant compliance from a
date at or before the reporting date to a later date. We believe that in these situations whether the entity would have breached
the related covenant had the agreement not been amended does not affect the classification of the liability at the reporting date.

thousand and was conditional on the acquisition of factory premises in a specified region. The factory has been in
operation since late 2021 and the grant, recognised as deferred income, is being amortised over the useful life of
the building. In accordance with the terms of the grant, the Group is prohibited from selling the factory premises
for a period of 15 years from the date of the grant.
The second grant, received in 2022, was unconditional and amounted to $200 thousand. It was included in ‘other
income’ when it became receivable (see Note 7(A)).

The Group has elected to present government grants related to assets as deferred income. Alternatively, an entity may present
these grants as a deduction in arriving at the carrying amount of the related asset.
The deferred income is generally classified as a non-current liability when an entity presents a classified statement of financial
position.

23. Provisions (continued)
A. Warranties
AASB 1060.153(b)-(d)
The provision for warranties relates mainly to paper sold in 2021 and 2022. The provision has been estimated
based on historical warranty data associated with similar products and services. The Group expects to settle the
majority of the liability over the next year. An expected reimbursement of warranty expense incurred of $25
thousand has been included in ‘trade receivables due from other parties’ (see
Note 12) following a supplier
accepting responsibility for the defective products.
B. Restructuring (including termination benefits)
a
AASB 1060.153(b)-(c),
174
In 2022, a provision of $400 thousand was made to cover the costs associated with restructuring part of a
manufacturing facility that will be retained when the remainder of the facility is sold (see Note 14). Estimated
restructuring costs mainly include employee termination benefits of $325 thousand, which are fully provided for,
and are based on a detailed plan agreed between management and employee representatives. The restructuring
and the sale are expected to be completed by December 2022.
In 2021, the Group committed to a plan to restructure a product line in the paper manufacturing and distribution
division due to a decrease in demand as a result of a deterioration in economic conditions. Following the
announcement of the plan, the Group recognised a provision of $600 thousand for expected restructuring costs,
including contract termination costs of $128 thousand, consulting fees of $271 thousand and employee
termination benefits of $201 thousand. Estimated costs were based on the terms of the relevant contracts. The
restructuring was completed in 2022, and $500 thousand of the provision was used during the year (noting that
the full amount of employee termination benefits provided for was paid). The unused provision of $100 thousand
was reversed and has been included in ‘cost of sales’.
b
C. Site restoration
i. Australia
AASB 1060.153(b)
A provision of $740 thousand was made in 2021 and an unwind of the discount of $60 thousand was recognised
in 2022 in respect of the Group’s obligation to rectify environmental damage in Australia. The required work was
completed during 2022 at a cost of $800 thousand.
ii. New Zealand
AASB 1060.153(b)-(c)
Under New Zealand law, the Group’s subsidiary in New Zealand is required to restore contaminated land to its
original condition before the end of 2025. In 2022, the Group provided $660 thousand for this purpose.
Because of the long-term nature of the liability, the greatest uncertainty in estimating the provision is the costs
that will be incurred. In particular, the Group has assumed that the site will be restored using technology and
materials that are currently available. The Group has been provided with a range of reasonably possible outcomes
for the total cost, which range from $500 thousand to $700 thousand, reflecting different assumptions about
pricing of the individual components of the cost. The provision has been calculated using a discount rate of 5.9%.
The rehabilitation is expected to occur in the next two to three years.
iii. Acquisition of Papyrus
AASB 1060.153(b)
As part of the acquisition of Papyrus, the Group recognised environmental provisions of $150 thousand,
measured on a provisional basis (see Note 26).
D. Onerous contracts
AASB 1060.153(b)
As a result of a non-cancellable sales contract related to standard paper products and the expected increase in
costs to fulfil the contract arising from supply chain disruptions, the Group is no longer expected to cover the
consideration receivable and recognised an onerous contract provision of $160 thousand.
E. Legal
AASB 1060.154, 142(e)
As a result of the acquisition of Papyrus, the Group assumed a contingent liability of $20 thousand, measured on
a provisional basis (see Note 26).
AASB 1060.175
a.
When there is uncertainty about the number of employees who will accept an offer of termination benefits, an entity discloses
information about this contingent liability unless the possibility of an outflow in settlement is remote.
b.
This disclosure is not specifically required in AASB 1060 but is included to provide context for the termination benefits that were
previously provided for and actually paid.

statement of financial position, as well as the significant unobservable inputs used. Related valuation processes
are described in Note 4(B).
Type
Valuation technique
Significant unobservable inputs
Equity securities
Market comparison technique: The valuation
model is based on market multiples derived
from quoted prices of companies comparable
to the investee, adjusted for the effect of the
non-marketability of the equity securities, and
the revenue and EBITDA of the investee. The
estimate is adjusted for the net debt of the
investee.
Adjusted market multiple (2021: 47).
Corporate debt
securities
Market comparison/discounted cash flow:
The fair value is estimated considering
(i) current or recent quoted prices for identical
securities in markets that are not active and
(ii) a net present value calculated usi
ng
di
scount rates derived from quoted yields of
securities with similar maturity and credit
rating that are traded in active markets,
adjusted by an illiquidity factor.
Not applicable.
Forward exchange
contracts
Forward pricing: The fair value is determined
using quoted forward exchange rates at the
reporting date and present value calculations
based on high credit quality yield curves in the
respective currencies.
Not applicable.

C. Financial risk managementHedging
The Group uses derivatives to manage market risks, e.g. changes in foreign exchange rates. All such transactions
are carried out within the guidelines set by risk management committee. Generally, the Group seeks to apply
hedge accounting to manage volatility in profit or loss.
Currency risk
AASB 1060.120(c)
The Group is exposed to transactional foreign currency risk to the extent that there is a mismatch between the
currencies in which sales, purchases, receivables and borrowings are denominated and the respective functional
currencies of Group companies. The functional currencies of Group companies are primarily the Australian and
New Zealand dollars. The currencies in which these transactions are primarily denominated are Australian, New
Zealand and US dollars.
AASB 1060.120(a)-(b)
The Group’s risk management policy is to hedge 75 to 85% of its estimated foreign currency exposure in respect
of forecast sales and purchases over the following 12 months at any point in time. The Group uses forward
exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk, most with a maturity of less than one year from the reporting date.
These contracts are generally designated as cash flow hedges.
a,b,c
AASB 1060.120
The Group designates the full change in the fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge its currency
risk and applies a hedge ratio of 1:1. The Group’s policy is for the critical terms of the forward exchange contracts
to align with the hedged item.
The Group determines the existence of an economic relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged
item based on the currency, amount and timing of their respective cash flows. The Group assesses whether the
derivative designated in each hedging relationship is expected to be and has been effective in offsetting changes
in cash flows of the hedged item using the hypothetical derivative method.
In these hedging relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are:
the effect of the counterparties’ and the Group’s own credit risk on the fair value of the forward foreign
exchange contracts, which is not reflected in the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flows
attributable to the change in exchange rates; and
changes in the timing of the hedged transactions.
Net investment hedges
AASB 1060.120(c)
A foreign currency exposure arises from the Group’s net investment in its New Zealand subsidiary that has a New
Zealand dollar functional currency. The risk arises from the fluctuation in spot exchange rates between the New
Zealand dollar and the Australian dollar, which causes the amount of the net investment to vary.
The hedged risk in the net investment hedge is the risk of a weakening New Zealand dollar against the Australian
dollar that will result in a reduction in the carrying amount of the Group’s net investment in the New Zealand
subsidiary.
AASB 1060.120(a)-(b)
Part of the Group’s net investment in its New Zealand subsidiary is hedged by a New Zealand dollar-denominated
secured bank loan (carrying amount: $1,240 thousand (2021: $1,257 thousand)), which mitigates the foreign
currency risk arising from the subsidiary’s net assets. The loan is designated as a hedging instrument for the
changes in the value of the net investment that is attributable to changes in the AUD/NZD spot rate.
a.
The Group has not designated any fair value hedging relationships.
AASB 1060.122(b)
b.
The Group did not have any forecast transaction for which cash flow hedge accounting had been used in the previous period, but
which is no longer expected to occur. If it did, then it would be required to disclose a description of the forecast transaction as
well as the amount reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or loss.
AASB 1060.122(e)
c.
The amount of any cash flow hedge or net investment hedge ineffectiveness recognised in profit or loss for the period is also
separately disclosed where relevant. Other quantitative disclosures relating to hedging are disclosed in the Statement of profit or
loss and OCI.

26. Acquisition of subsidiary
See accounting policy in Note 35(A)(i)(iii).
AASB 1060.142(a)-(d)
On 30 September 2021, the Group acquired 75% of the shares and voting interests in Papyrus for a total cash
consideration of $2,935 thousand. As a result, the Group’s equity interest in Papyrus increased from 25 to 100%,
granting it control of Papyrus (see Note 17).
Taking control of Papyrus will enable the Group to modernise its production process through access to Papyrus’s
patented technology. The acquisition is also expected to provide the Group with an increased share of the
standard paper market through access to Papyrus’s customer base. The Group also expects to reduce costs
through economies of scale.

The remeasurement to fair value of the Group’s existing 25% interest in Papyrus resulted in a gain of $250
thousand ($650 thousand less the $420 thousand carrying amount of the investment in associate at the date of
acquisition plus $20 thousand of translation reserve reclassified to profit or loss). This amount has been included
in ‘finance income’ (see Note 8).
AASB 1060.142(g)
The goodwill is attributable mainly to the skills and technical talent of Papyrus’s work force and the synergies
expected to be achieved from integrating the company into the Group’s existing standard papers business.

27. Leases
See accounting policy in Note 35(R).
A. Leases as lessee
AASB 1060.144(c)
The Group leases warehouse and factory facilities. The leases typically run for a period of 10 years, with an option
to renew the lease after that date. Lease payments are renegotiated every five years to reflect market rentals.
Some leases provide for additional rent payments that are based on changes in local price indices. For certain
leases, the Group is restricted from entering into any sub-lease arrangements.
In 2022, one of the leased properties has been sub-let by the Group. The lease and sub-lease expire in 2023.
Information about leases for which the Group is a lessee is presented below.

provide operational flexibility. The extension options held are exercisable only by the Group and not by the
lessors. The Group assesses at lease commencement date whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the
extension options. The Group reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the options if there is a
significant event or significant changes in circumstances within its control.

in 2022 for $1,465 thousand (2021: nil) and $455 thousand (2021: nil) respectively.
The Group is committed to incurring other capital expenditure of $141 thousand (2021: $41 thousand). These
commitments are expected to be settled in 2023.
29. Contingencies
AASB 1060.97, 154
A subsidiary is defending an action brought by an environmental agency in Australia. Although liability is not
admitted, if the defence against the action is unsuccessful, then fines and legal costs could amount to $950
thousand, of which $250 thousand would be reimbursable under an insurance policy. Based on legal advice,
management believes that the defence against the action will be successful.
AASB 1060.142(e)
As part of the acquisition of Papyrus, the Group recognised a contingent liability of $20 thousand in respect of a
claim for contractual penalties made by one of Papyrus’s customers (see Note 26).

AASB 2.50, AASB 124.17). The ASIC Instrument has not been updated for the equivalent paragraphs in AASB 1060 where an
entity applies Tier 2 Simplified Disclosures. This guide applies the requirements in the legislative instrument as if it refers to the
corresponding disclosure requirements in AASB 1060.

The Company’s parent produces consolidated financial statements that are available for public use. If neither the Company’s
parent nor its ultimate controlling party produced consolidated financial statements available for public use, then the Company
would disclose the name of the next most senior parent that does so. If neither the ultimate controlling party nor any intermediate
controlling party produced consolidated financial statements that are available for public use, then this fact would be disclosed.

a,b
ASIC Instrument
2016/785
Pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Wholly owned Companies) Instrument 2016/785, the wholly-owned subsidiaries
listed below are relieved from the Corporations Act 2001 requirements for preparation, audit and lodgement of
financial reports, and Directors’ reports.
ASIC Instrument
2016/785
Condition 6(v)(i)-(ii)
It is a condition of the Instrument that the Company and each of the subsidiaries enter into a Deed of Cross
Guarantee. The effect of the Deed is that the Company guarantees to each creditor payment in full of any debt in
the event of winding up of any of the subsidiaries under certain provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. If a
winding up occurs under other provisions of the Act, the Company will only be liable in the event that after six
months any creditor has not been paid in full. The subsidiaries have also given similar guarantees in the event that
the Company is wound up.
ASIC Instrument
2016/785
Condition 6(v)(i)-(ii)
The subsidiaries subject to the Deed are:
Paper AU Pty Ltd
Paper Pulp Pty Ltd
ASIC Instrument
2016/785
Condition 6(v)(i), (iii)-(iv)
Paper AU Pty Ltd Limited became a party to the Deed on 1 January 2021, by virtue of a Deed of Assumption.
Tasman Trust was released from its obligations under the Deed by executing Revocation Deeds on 30 March
2022.
Paper Pulp Pty Ltd obtained relief pursuant to the Instrument for the year ended 30 June 2021; however, whilst
still a party to the Deed, is not eligible for relief in the current year as it has become a small proprietary company.

ASIC Instrument
2016/785
Condition 6(v)(i), (v)-(vi)
A consolidated statement of comprehensive income and consolidated statement of financial position, comprising
the Company and controlled entities which are a party to the Deed, after eliminating all transactions between

reporting date must be included in the consolidated financial statements of the Holding Entity:
the Closed Group
the group comprising the Holding Entity and all of its controlled entities that are parties to the Deed of Cross Guarantee (i.e.
including controlled entities not wholly owned)
parties to the Deed of Cross Guarantee which are not controlled entities (either individually or in aggregate).
In some circumstances, the disclosures required for each of the above will not differ as all the parties to the Deed of Cross
Guarantee will be members of the Closed Group. This is the case in Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited group.
These are only the financial report conditions for obtaining relief under the legislative instrument. The legislative instrument must
be referred to for full details and conditions.

(a) The parent entity is defending an action brought by an environmental agency in Australia. Although liability is
not admitted, if the defence against the action is unsuccessful, then fines and legal costs could amount to
$950 t
housand, of which $250 thousand would be reimbursable under an insurance policy. Based on legal
advice, the directors do not expect the outcome of the action to have a material effect on the parent entity’s
financial position. In the director’s opinion, disclosure of any further information would be prejudicial to t

(b) The Group has guaranteed, to an unrelated party, the performance of a subsidiary in relation to a contract for
the supply of paper. In the event of default, the terms of the contract contain a minimum compensation

Where an entity applies the rounding relief available in ASIC Instrument 2016/191, certain amounts are required to be rounded to
a lower level. ASIC Instrument 2016/191 specifies those amounts with reference to particular disclosure paragraphs in AAS (e.g.
AASB 2.50, AASB 124.17). The ASIC Instrument has not been updated for the equivalent paragraphs in AASB 1060 where an
entity applies Tier 2 Simplified Disclosures. This guide applies the requirements in the legislative instrument as if it refers to the
corresponding disclosure requirements in AASB 1060.
b.
This illustrative disclosure excludes auditors’ remuneration for associates. An entity may want to separately disclose auditors’
remuneration for associates, in which case we recommend additional line items be included within each section for transparency.
c.
Although it is not required, this categorisation of fees to auditors is encouraged by ASIC to aid in the consistent and transparent
reporting of audit and non-audit fee information.
d.
Disclosures are required regardless of whether the entity or a related entity make the payments. Where fees are paid on behalf of
the entity by a related party outside the consolidated entity, disclosure as a related party transaction is required.
e.
ASIC encourages fees paid to the Group auditor to be split out separately for those relating to auditing the statutory financial
report of the parent covering the consolidated group; and those relating to auditing the statutory financial reports of any controlled
entities. This disclosure is provided for illustrative purposes only.
f.
Although it is not required, ASIC encourages entities to split fees for assurance services from fees for non-assurance services.
They also encourage assurance services to be further split between “regulatory assurance services” and “other assurance
services”. This disclosure is provided for illustrative purposes only.
AASB 1060.99
An entity is required to describe the nature of all services provided that do not related to the audit or review of the financial
statements. There is no requirement to provide an amount for each non-audit services.
g.
Regulatory assurance services are those that are required under legislation and are performed by the auditor, for example, Form
FS 71 and AFS licensee, workers compensation, APRA reports, US Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 Section 404, franchising code of
conduct and retirements villages.
h.
Other assurance services are fees for other assurance services other than those included under regulatory assurance, such as
those required under contractual agreements. Examples include assurance on revenue information relevant to a royalty
agreement, sustainability assurance reporting and capital raisings.
i.
Other services are services that do not fall within regulatory or other assurance services, e.g. tax advice, tax compliance,
consulting.

34. Subsequent events
A. Restructuring
AASB 1060.187-188
At the end of July 2022, the Group announced its intention to implement a cost-reduction programme and to take
further measures to reduce costs. Additionally, to enable the Group to adapt its size to current market conditions,
it intends to reduce the Group’s workforce by 400 positions worldwide by the end of 2022/23, by means of non-
replacement whenever possible. The Group expects the restructuring associated with the reduction in positions
to cost between $600 thousand and $850 thousand in 2023 and 2024.
B. Others
Subsequent to 30 June 2022, one of the Group’s major trade customers went into liquidation following a natural
disaster in August 2022 that damaged its operating plant. Of the $100 thousand owed by the customer, the
Group expects to recover less than $10 thousand. No additional allowance for impairment has been made in
these consolidated financial statements.
On 10 July 2022, one of the premises of the Group’s material subsidiary, having a carrying amount of $220
thousand, was seriously damaged by fire. Surveyors are in the process of assessing the extent of the loss,
following which the Group will file a claim for reimbursement with the insurance company. The Group is unable to
estimate the incremental costs relating to refurbishment and temporary shift of production to other locations (in
excess of the reimbursement expected).
As explained in Note 20(B), the Group breached a financial loan covenant associated with a bank loan in the first
quarter of 2022. The Group obtained a waiver for the breach of covenant in April 2022 for a period of 18 months.
Subsequent to 30 June 2022, the bank revised the loan covenant ratio and the waiver was lifted.
On 22 January 2022, the Group announced its intention to acquire all of the shares of ABC Company for $6,500
thousand. On 4 July 2022, the Group’s shareholders approved the transaction and the Group is now awaiting
approval from regulatory authorities before proceeding with the acquisition. Management anticipates that this
approval will be received by October 2022.

A number of other new standards are also effective from 1 July 2021 but they do not have a material effect on
the Group’s financial statements.
Significant accounting policies
Apart from the above, the Group has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all periods

by describing only the specific policies that are relevant to an understanding of the Group’s consolidated financial statements. For
example, the accounting policy for preference shares (
Note 35(N)(ii)) is not intended to be a complete description of the
classification of such shares in general. These example accounting policies should not be relied on for a complete understanding
of Australian Accounting Standards and should not be used as a substitute for referring to the standards and interpretations
themselves. To help you identify the underlying requirements in Australian Accounting Standards, references to the recognition
and measurement requirements in Australian Accounting Standards that are relevant for a particular accounting policy have been
included and indicated by square brackets e.g. [AASB 3.19].
AASB 1060.107

35. Significant accounting policies (continued)
A. Basis of consolidation
i. Business combinations
[AASB 3.3–4, 32, 34, 53,
B5B12]
The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when the acquired set of activities
and assets meets the definition of a business and control is transferred to the Group (see (A)(ii)). In determining
whether a particular set of activities and assets is a business, the Group assesses whether the set of assets and
activities includes, at a minimum, an input and substantive process and whether the acquired set has the ability to
produce outputs.
The Group has an option to apply a ‘concentration test’ that permits a simplified reassessment of whether an
acquired set of activities and assets is not a business. The optional concentration test is met if substantially all of
the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar
identifiable assets.
The consideration transferred in the acquisition is generally measured at fair value, as are the identifiable net
assets acquired. Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment (see (P)(ii)). Any gain on a bargain
purchase is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred, except if related
to the issue of debt or equity securities (see (N)).
[AASB 3.40, 58]
Any contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. If an obligation to pay contingent
consideration that meets the definition of a financial instrument is classified as equity, then it is not remeasured
and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, other contingent consideration is remeasured at fair
value at each reporting date and subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are
recognised in profit or loss.
ii. Subsidiaries
[AASB 10.6, 20]
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group ‘controls’ an entity when it is exposed to, or has
rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through
its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial
statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.
iii. Loss of control
[AASB 10.25, B97–B99]
When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary and
other components of equity. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in the
former subsidiary is measured at fair value when control is lost.
AASB 1060.125(a)
iv. Investments in associates
a
[AASB 128.3]
Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the
financial and operating policies.
[AASB 128.10, 16, 22]
Interests in associates are accounted for using the equity method. They are initially recognised at cost, which
includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated financial statements include the
Group’s share of the profit or loss and OCI of associates, until the date on which significant influence ceases.
v. Transactions eliminated on consolidation
[AASB 10.B86(c),
AASB 128.2829]
Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group
transactions, are eliminated. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates are eliminated against the
investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same
way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
Insights 3.5.430.30
a.
In the absence of specific guidance in the Standards, the Group has elected to eliminate unrealised gains and losses resulting
from transactions with associates against the investment in associates. Alternatively, the elimination may be presented as a
reduction in the underlying asset e.g. inventory.

B. Foreign currency
i. Foreign currency transactions
[AASB 121.21]
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies of Group companies at
the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
[AASB 121.23, 28, 30,
32]
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the
exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined.
Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the
exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences are generally recognised in profit or
loss and presented within finance costs.
[AASB 9.B5.7.3]
However, foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the following items are recognised in OCI:
a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation to the extent that the
hedge is effective (see (M)(v)); and
qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective.
ii. Foreign operations
[AASB 121.39]
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition,
are translated into dollars at the exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign
operations are translated into dollars at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
[AASB 121.41]
Foreign currency differences are recognised in OCI and accumulated in the translation reserve.
[AASB 121.4849]
When a foreign operation is disposed of in its entirety or partially such that control or significant influence is lost,
the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as
part of the gain or loss on disposal. If the Group disposes of part of its interest in a subsidiary but retains control,
then the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to NCI. When the Group disposes of only
part of an associate while retaining significant influence, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is
reclassified to profit or loss.
C. Discontinued operation
[AASB 5.32]
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business, the operations and cash flows of which can be
clearly distinguished from the rest of the Group and which:
represents a separate major line of business or geographic area of operations;
is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographic area of
operations; or
is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
Classification as a discontinued operation occurs at the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria
to be classified as held-for-sale.
AASB 5.34
When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of profit or loss and OCI
is re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative year.

D. Revenue from contracts with customers
AASB 1060.157(a), 158
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Group recognises
revenue when it transfers control over a good or service to a customer.
The following table provides information about the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance
obligations in contracts with customers, including significant payment terms, and the related revenue recognition
policies. For the accounting policy for onerous contracts, see Note 35(Q).
Type of product/service
Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance
obligations, including significant payment terms
Methods used to recognise revenue for
performance obligations satisfied over time
b
Standard paper
products
Customers obtain control of standard paper
products when the goods are delivered to and
have been accepted at their premises.
Invoices are generated at that point in time.
Invoices are usually payable within 30 days.
No discounts are provided for standard paper
products.
Some contracts permit the customer to return
an item. Returned goods are exchanged only
for new goods i.e. no cash refunds are
offered.
Made-to-order paper
products
The Group has determined that for made-to-
order paper products, the customer controls
all of the work in progress as the products are
being manufactured. This is because under
those contracts paper products are made to a
customer’s specification and if a contract is
terminated by the customer, then the Group
is entitled to reimbursement of the costs
incurred to date, including a reasonable
margin.
Revenue and associated costs are
recognised over time i.e. before the
goods are delivered to the customers’
premises. Progress is determined based
on the cost-to-cost method.
Invoices are issued according to contractual
terms and are usually payable within 30 days.
Uninvoiced amounts are presented as
contract assets.
Managing forest
resources services
and related services
Invoices for forestry services are issued on a
monthly basis and are usually payable within
30 days.
Revenue is recognised over time as the
services are provided. The stage of
completion for determining the amount of
revenue to recognise is assessed based
on surveys of work performed.
If the services under a single arrangement
are rendered in different reporting
periods, then the consideration is
allocated based on their relative stand-
alone selling prices. The stand-alone
selling price is determined based on the
list prices at which the Group sells the
services in separate transactions.
AASB 1060.158, BC68
a.
An entity is required to disclose the methods used to recognise revenue only for performance obligations satisfied over time and
not for performance obligations satisfied at a point in time.

E. Employee benefits
i. Short-term employee benefits
[AASB 119.11]
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the
amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a
result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
ii. Share-based payment arrangements
[AASB 2.30, 32]
The fair value of the amount payable to employees in respect of share appreciation rights (SARs), which are
settled in cash, is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the period during
which the employees become unconditionally entitled to payment. The liability is remeasured at each reporting
date and at settlement date based on the fair value of the SARs. Any changes in the liability are recognised in
profit or loss.
iii. Defined contribution plans
[AASB 119.51]
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed as the related service is provided. Prepaid
contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is
available.
iv. Other long-term employee benefits
[AASB 119.155156]
The Group’s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that
employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to
determine its present value. Remeasurements are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
v. Termination benefits
[AASB 119.165]
Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those
benefits and when the Group recognises costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settled
wholly within 12 months of the reporting date, then they are discounted.
AASB 1060.160(d)
F. Government grants
[AASB 120.7, 2426]
The Group initially recognises government grants related to assets as deferred income at fair value if there is
reasonable assurance that they will be received and the Group will comply with the conditions associated with
the grant; they are then recognised in profit or loss as other income on a systematic basis over the useful life of
the asset.
[AASB 120.12, 20, 29]
Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss as other income on a
systematic basis in the periods in which the expenses are recognised, unless the conditions for receiving the
grant are met after the related expenses have been recognised. In this case, the grant is recognised when it
becomes receivable.

G. Finance income and finance costs
a
The Group’s finance income and finance costs include:
interest income;
interest expense;
dividend income;
dividend expense on preference shares issued classified as financial liabilities;
the net gain or loss on financial assets at FVTPL;
the foreign currency gain or loss on financial assets and financial liabilities;
impairment losses (and reversals) on investments in debt securities carried at amortised cost;
the gain on the remeasurement to fair value of any pre-existing interest in an acquiree in a business
combination;
the fair value loss on contingent consideration classified as a financial liability;
hedge ineffectiveness recognised in profit or loss; and
the reclassification of net gains and losses previously recognised in OCI on cash flow hedges of foreign
currency risk for borrowings).
Interest income or expense is recognised using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised in
profit or loss on the date on which the Group’s right to receive payment is established.
[AASB 9.5.4.15.4.2, A]
The ‘effective interest rate’ is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through
the expected life of the financial instrument to:
the gross carrying amount of the financial asset; or
the amortised cost of the financial liability.
In calculating interest income and expense, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of
the asset (when the asset is not credit-impaired) or to the amortised cost of the liability. However, for financial
assets that have become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income is calculated by
applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset. If the asset is no longer credit-
impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis.
H. Income tax
[AASB 112.58]
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that
it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in OCI.
The Group has determined that interest and penalties related to income taxes, including uncertain tax treatments,
do not meet the definition of income taxes, and therefore accounted for them under AASB 137 Provisions,
Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
i. Current tax
[AASB 112.2, 12, 46,
INT 23.11]
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any
adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payable or
receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related
to income taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Current tax also includes any tax arising from dividends.
[AASB 112.71]
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.
Insights 7.10.70.20
a.
There is no guidance in the Standards on what is included in finance income and finance costs and the Group has disclosed as
part of its accounting policy which items constitute finance income and finance costs.

35. Significant accounting policies (continued)
H. Income tax (continued)
ii. Deferred tax
[AASB 112.15, 24, 39,
44]
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not
recognised for:
temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business
combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss;
temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries and associates to the extent that the Group is
able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not
reverse in the foreseeable future; and
taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.
[AASB 112.56]
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary
differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be
used. Future taxable profits are determined based on the reversal of relevant taxable temporary differences. If the
amount of taxable temporary differences is insufficient to recognise a deferred tax asset in full, then future
taxable profits, adjusted for reversals of existing temporary differences, are considered, based on the business
plans for individual subsidiaries in the Group. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised; such reductions are
reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.
[AASB 112.37]
Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and recognised to the extent that it has
become probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used.
[AASB 112.47,
INT 23.11]
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they
reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and reflects uncertainty related to
income taxes, if any.
[AASB 112.51]
The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the
Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
[AASB 112.74]
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.
AASB 1060.123(a)
I. Inventories
[AASB 102.9, 25]
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on the
first-in, first-out principle. In the case of manufactured inventories, cost includes an appropriate share of
production overheads based on normal operating capacity.
J. Property, plant and equipment
AASB 1060.134(a)
i. Recognition and measurement
[AASB 1.D5,
AASB 116.30]
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalised borrowing costs, less
accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of certain items of property, plant
and equipment at 1 January 2005, the Group’s date of transition to the Standards, was determined with reference
to its fair value at that date.
[AASB 116.45]
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted
for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
[AASB 116.41, 71]
Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit or loss.

J. Property, plant and equipment (continued)
ii. Subsequent expenditure
[AASB 116.13]
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the
expenditure will flow to the Group.
AASB 1060.134(b)-(c)
iii. Depreciation
[AASB 116.53, 58, 60]
Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated
residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognised in
profit or loss. Land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment for current and comparative periods are as follows:
buildings:
40 years
plant and equipment:
3–12 years
fixtures and fittings:
5–10 years.
[AASB 116.51]
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if
appropriate.
K. Intangible assets
i. Recognition and measurement
[AASB 138.107108]
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries is measured at cost less accumulated
impairment losses.
[AASB 138.5455]
development
Expenditure on research activities is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
[AASB 138.57, 71, 74]
Development expenditure is capitalised only if the expenditure can be measured reliably,
the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits
are probable and the Group intends to and has sufficient resources to complete
development and to use or sell the asset. Otherwise, it is recognised in profit or loss as
incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, development expenditure is measured at cost
less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
[AASB 138.74]
assets
Other intangible assets, including customer relationships, patents and trademarks, that
are acquired by the Group and have finite useful lives are measured at cost less
accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
ii. Subsequent expenditure
[AASB 138.18]
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the
specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and
brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
AASB 1060.137(a)-(b)
iii. Amortisation
[AASB 138.97]
Amortisation is calculated to write off the cost of intangible assets less their estimated residual values using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognised in profit or loss. Goodwill is not
amortised.
The estimated useful lives for current and comparative periods are as follows:
patents and trademarks:
3–20 years
development costs:
2–5 years
customer relationships:
4–5 years.
[IAASB 138.104]
Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if
appropriate.

L. Assets held for sale
[AASB 5.6]
Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, are classified as held-for-sale if it is highly
probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use.
[AASB 5.1515A, 1823]
Such assets, or disposal groups, are generally measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less
costs to sell. Any impairment loss on a disposal group is allocated first to goodwill, and then to the remaining
assets and liabilities on a pro rata basis, except that no loss is allocated to inventories, financial assets or deferred
tax assets, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Group’s other accounting policies. Impairment
losses on initial classification as held-for-sale or held-for-distribution and subsequent gains and losses on
remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss.
[AASB 5.25,
AASB 128.20]
Once classified as held-for-sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no longer amortised or
depreciated, and any interest in associate is no longer equity accounted.
AASB 1060.112
M. Financial instruments
i. Recognition and initial measurement
[AASB 9.3.1.1]
Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial
assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument.
[AASB 9.5.1.1, 5.1.3]
A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or financial liability is
initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its
acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the
transaction price.
ii. Classification and subsequent measurement
Financial assets
[AASB 9.4.1.1]
On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL.
[AASB 9.4.4.1, 5.6.1]
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business
model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of
the first reporting period following the change in the business model.
[AASB 9.4.1.2]
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated
as at FVTPL:
it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding.
[AASB 9.4.1.5]
Financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost as described above are measured at FVTPL (see
Note 24(A)). On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the
requirements to be measured at amortised cost as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an
accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets Business model assessment
[AASB 9.B4.1.2]
The Group makes an assessment of the objective of the business model in which a financial asset is held at a
portfolio level
a
because this best reflects the way the business is managed and information is provided to
management. The information considered includes:
[AASB 9.B4.1.2BC,
B4.1.4A, B4.1.5]
the stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice. These
include whether management’s strategy focuses on earning contractual interest income, maintaining a
particular interest rate profile, matching the duration of the financial assets to the duration of any relat
ed
lia
bilities or expected cash outflows or realising cash flows through the sale of the assets;
how the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Group’s management;
the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business
model) and how those risks are managed;
how managers of the business are compensated e.g. whether compensation is based on the fair value of
the assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected; and
the frequency, volume and timing of sales of financial assets in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and
expectations about future sales activity.
Transfers of financial assets to third parties in transactions that do not qualify for derecognition are not considered
sales for this purpose, consistent with the Group’s continuing recognition of the assets.
b
[AASB 9.B4.1.6]
Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis
are measured at FVTPL.
Financial assets Assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal
and interest
[AASB 9.4.1.3,
B4.1.7AB, B4.1.9AE]
For the purposes of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial
recognition. ‘Interest’ is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated
with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs
(e.g. liquidity risk and administrative costs), as well as a profit margin.
In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Group
considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a
contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet
this condition. In making this assessment, the Group considers:
contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash flows;
terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate, including variable-rate features;
prepayment and extension features; and
terms that limit the Group’s claim to cash flows from specified assets (e.g. non-recourse features).
[AASB 9.B4.1.11(b),
B4.1.12]
A prepayment feature is consistent with the solely payments of principal and interest criterion if the prepayment
amount substantially represents unpaid amounts of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding,
which may include reasonable compensation for early termination of the contract. Additionally, for a financial
asset acquired at a discount or premium to its contractual par amount, a feature that permits or requires
prepayment at an amount that substantially represents the contractual par amount plus accrued (but unpaid)
contractual interest (which may also include reasonable compensation for early termination) is treated as
consistent with this criterion if the fair value of the prepayment feature is insignificant at initial recognition.
AASB 9.B4.1.1B4.1.2,
Insights 7.4.70.30
a.
The objective of the entity’s business model is not based on management’s intentions with respect to an individual instrument,
but rather is determined at a higher level of aggregation. The assessment needs to reflect the way that an entity manages its
business or businesses. A single reporting entity may have more than one business model for managing its financial instruments.
Insights 7.4.110.50
b.
AASB 9 does not provide specific guidance for business model assessment related to portfolios of financial assets for which the
entity’s objectives include transfers of financial assets to third parties in transactions that do not qualify for derecognition. In our
view, whether such a portfolio is considered consistent with a held-to-collect business model depends on the circumstances.

Financial assets Subsequent measurement and gains and losses
[AASB 9.5.7.1]
FVTPL
These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any
interest or dividend income, are recognised in profit or loss. However, see Note 35(M)(v)
for derivatives designated as hedging instruments.
[AASB 9.5.7.2]
amortised cost
These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign
exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or
loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities Classification, subsequent measurement and gains and losses
[AASB 9.5.7.1]
Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at
FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains
and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign
exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in
profit or loss.
See Note 35(M)(v) for financial liabilities designated as hedging instruments.
iii. Derecognition
Financial assets
[AASB 9.3.2.36]
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset
expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of
the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers
nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial
asset.
[AASB 9.3.2.6(b)]
The Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised in its statement of financial position,
but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets. In these cases, the
transferred assets are not derecognised.
Financial liabilities
[AASB 9.3.3.12]
The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.
The Group also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified
liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised
at fair value.
[AASB 9.3.3.3]
On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the
consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.
iv. Offsetting
[AASB 132.42]
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial
position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it
intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
[AASB 9.4.3.3]
The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency risk exposures. Embedded
derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the host contract is not a financial
asset and certain criteria are met.
[AASB 9.5.1.1, 5.2.1(c)]
Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair
value, and changes therein are generally recognised in profit or loss.
The Group designates certain derivatives as hedging instruments to hedge the variability in cash flows associated
with highly probable forecast transactions arising from changes in foreign exchange rates and certain derivatives
and non-derivative financial liabilities as hedges of foreign exchange risk on a net investment in a foreign
operation.
[AASB 9.6.4.1]
At inception of designated hedging relationships, the Group documents the risk management objective and
strategy for undertaking the hedge. The Group also documents the economic relationship between the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, including whether the changes in cash flows of the hedged item and hedging
instrument are expected to offset each other.
Cash flow hedges
[AASB 9.6.5.11, 6.5.16]
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair
value of the derivative is recognised in OCI and accumulated in the hedging reserve. The effective portion of
changes in the fair value of the derivative that is recognised in OCI is limited to the cumulative change in fair value
of the hedged item, determined on a present value basis, from inception of the hedge. Any ineffective portion of
changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
The Group designates the full change in fair value of the forward exchange contracts (including forward points) as
the hedging instrument in cash flow hedging relationships, and recognises the gains or losses relating to the
effective portion of the change in fair value of the entire forward contract in the cash flow hedge reserve within
equity.
When the hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial item such as
inventory, the amount accumulated in the hedging reserve is included directly in the initial cost of the non-
financial item when it is recognised.
For all other hedged forecast transactions, the amount accumulated in the hedging reserve is reclassified to profit
or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged expected future cash flows affect profit or loss.
[AASB 9.6.5.67, 6.5.12]
If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or the hedging instrument is sold, expires, is
terminated or is exercised, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. When hedge accounting for cash
flow hedges is discontinued, the amount that has been accumulated in the hedging reserve remains in equity
until, for a hedge of a transaction resulting in the recognition of a non-financial item, it is included in the non-
financial item’s cost on its initial recognition or, for other cash flow hedges, it is reclassified to profit or loss in the
same period or periods as the hedged expected future cash flows affect profit or loss.
If the hedged future cash flows are no longer expected to occur, then the amounts that have been accumulated
in the hedging reserve are immediately reclassified to profit or loss.
Net investment hedges
[AASB 9.6.5.1314]
When a derivative instrument or a non-derivative financial liability is designated as the hedging instrument in a
hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective portion of, for a derivative, changes in the fair value
of the hedging instrument or, for a non-derivative, foreign exchange gains and losses is recognised in OCI and
presented in the translation reserve within equity. Any ineffective portion of the changes in the fair value of the
derivative or foreign exchange gains and losses on the non-derivative is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
The amount recognised in OCI is reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment on disposal of the
foreign operation.

N. Share capital
i. Ordinary shares
[AASB 132.3535A]
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity.
Income tax relating to transaction costs of an equity transaction is accounted for in accordance with AASB 112
(see Note 35(H)).
ii. Preference shares
[AASB 132.AG25AG26]
The Group’s redeemable preference shares are classified as financial liabilities, because they bear non-
discretionary dividends and are redeemable in cash by the holders. Non-discretionary dividends thereon are
recognised as interest expense in profit or loss as accrued.
Non-redeemable preference shares are classified as equity, because they bear discretionary dividends, do not
contain any obligations to deliver cash or other financial assets and do not require settlement in a variable number
of the Group’s equity instruments. Discretionary dividends thereon are recognised as equity distributions on
approval by the Company’s shareholders.
O. Compound financial instruments
[AASB 132.2832]
Compound financial instruments issued by the Group comprise convertible notes denominated in dollars that can
be converted to ordinary shares at the option of the holder, when the number of shares to be issued is fixed and
does not vary with changes in fair value.
[AASB 9.5.1.1,
AASB 132.38, AG31]
The liability component of compound financial instruments is initially recognised at the fair value of a similar
liability that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is initially recognised at the
difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the
liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components
in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.
[AASB 9.5.3.1]
Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is
not remeasured.
[AASB 132.AG32]
Interest related to the financial liability is recognised in profit or loss. On conversion at maturity, the financial
liability is reclassified to equity and no gain or loss is recognised.
P. Impairment
i. Financial assets
Financial instruments and contract assets
[AASB 9.5.5.1]
The Group recognises loss allowances for ECLs on financial assets measured at amortised cost and contract
assets.
The Group also recognises loss allowances for ECLs on lease receivables, which are disclosed as part of trade
and other receivables.
[AASB 9.5.5.3, 5.5.5,
5.5.11, 5.5.1516]
The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, except for the following, which are
measured at 12-month ECLs:
debt securities that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date; and
other debt securities and bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the
expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.
Loss allowances for trade receivables (including lease receivables) and contract assets are always measured at an
amount equal to lifetime ECLs.
a
AASB 9.5.5.15
a.
For lease receivables, contract assets and trade receivables with a significant financing component, an entity can choose as an
accounting policy either to apply the general model for measuring the loss allowance or always to measure the loss allowance at
an amount equal to the lifetime ECLs. The Group has chosen the latter policy.

35. Significant accounting policies (continued)
P. Impairment (continued)
i. Financial assets (continued)
Financial instruments and contract assets (continued)
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition
and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and
available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis,
based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment, that includes forward-looking
information.
The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30 days
past due.
[AASB 9.5.5.19, B5.5.38]
The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group
is exposed to credit risk.
[AASB 9.5.5.17, A,
B5.5.2830, B5.5.33]
Measurement of ECLs
ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all
cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and
the cash flows that the Group expects to receive).
ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
[AASB 9.5.5.15.5.2]
Presentation of allowance for ECL in the statement of financial position
Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of
the assets.
ii. Non-financial assets
[AASB 136.910, 59]
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than inventories,
contract assets and deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such
indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment.
[AASB 136.22, 80]
For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows
from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs. Goodwill arising
from a business combination is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the
synergies of the combination.
[AASB 136.6, 30]
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.
Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, 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 or CGU.
[AASB 136.59]
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.
[AASB 136.104]
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro
rata basis.
[AASB 136.117, 122,
124]
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to
the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Q. Provisions
[AASB 137.14, 45, 47,
INT 1.8]
Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the
discount is recognised as finance cost.
[AASB 137.39]
A provision for warranties is recognised when the underlying products or services are
sold, based on historical warranty data and a weighting of possible outcomes against their
associated probabilities.
[AASB 137.72]
A provision for restructuring is recognised when the Group has approved a detailed and
formal restructuring plan, and the restructuring either has commenced or has been
announced publicly. Future operating losses are not provided for.
[AASB 137.21]
In accordance with the Group’s published environmental policy and applicable legal
requirements, a provision for site restoration in respect of contaminated land, and the
related expense, is recognised when the land is contaminated.
[AASB 137.66, 68]
A provision for onerous contracts is measured at the present value of the lower of the
expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with
the contract. Before a provision is established, the Group recognises any impairment loss
on the assets associated with that contract (see (P)(ii)).
R. Leases
[AASB 16.9]
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or
contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in
exchange for consideration.
i. As a lessee
[AASB 16.13-15, 45]
At commencement or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the
consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of its relative stand-alone prices. However, for
the leases of property the Group has elected not to separate non-lease components and account for the lease and
non-lease components as a single lease component.
[AASB 16.2224]
The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use
asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease
payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of
costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is
located, less any lease incentives received.
[AASB 16.2933]
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date
to the end of the lease term, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the
end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option.
In that case the right-of-use asset will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset, which is
determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is
periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.
[AASB 16.26]
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the
commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily
determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as
the discount rate.
AASB 1060.91(c)
The Group determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing
sources and makes certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and type of the asset leased.
[AASB 16.27]
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:
fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the
c
ommencement date;
amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and
the exercise price under a purchase option that the Group is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in
a
n optional renewal period if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for
early termination of a lease unless the Group is reasonably certain not to terminate early.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements (continued)
35. Significant accounting policies (continued)
R. Leases (continued)
i. As a lessee (continued)
[AASB 16.36, 40, 42]
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there
is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Group’s
estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Group changes its
assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised in-
substance fixed lease payment.
[AASB 16.39]
When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of
the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been
reduced to zero.
[AASB 16.4748]
The Group presents right-of-use assets in ‘property, plant and equipment’ and lease liabilities in ‘loans and
borrowings’ in the statement of financial position.
ii. As a lessor
[AASB 16.17]
At inception or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the
consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices.
[AASB 16.6162]
When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease or an
operating lease.
[AASB 16.63]
To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers substantially all of
the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, then the lease is a
finance lease; if not, then it is an operating lease. As part of this assessment, the Group considers certain
indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset.
[AASB 16.B58]
When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease
separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from
the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the
Group applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.
[AASB 16.17]
If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, then the Group applies AASB 15 Revenue from
Contracts with Customers to allocate the consideration in the contract.
[AASB 16.77]
The Group applies the derecognition and impairment requirements in AASB 9 Financial Instruments to the net
investment in the lease (see Note 35(P)(i)). The Group further regularly reviews estimated unguaranteed residual
values used in calculating the gross investment in the lease.
S. Fair value measurement
[AASB 13.9, 24, 42]
‘Fair value’ is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the most advantageous
market to which the Group has access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk.
A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both
financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.
[AASB 13.77, 79, A]
When one is available, the Group measures the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active
market for that instrument. A market is regarded as ‘active’ if transactions for the asset or liability take place with
sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
[AASB 13.6162]
If there is no quoted price in an active market, then the Group uses valuation techniques that maximise the use of
relevant observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique
incorporates all of the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction.
[AASB 13.7071]
If an asset or a liability measured at fair value has a bid price and an ask price, then the Group measures assets
and long positions at a bid price and liabilities and short positions at an ask price.

The basis of preparation (Note 2) for the financial statements of Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited is
prepared on the basis that all recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards
(including consolidation and equity accounting) have been applied during the preparation of the prior year special
purpose financial statements.
This Appendix provides illustrative disclosures for an entity adopting GPFS-Tier 2 SD for the first time having prepared
special purpose financial statements for its most recent financial statements. Specifically, it assumes a fact pattern
where in the prior year Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited prepared parent only separate financial
statements. In the prior year financial statements, it complied with all recognition and measurement requirements of
Australian Accounting Standards except for consolidation and equity accounting. What is the impact of this? refer to
discussion below on first time preparation of consolidated financial statements.
Where you have not complied with other recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting
Standards, for example say lease accounting or deferred tax accounting, then you may wish to consult with your
KPMG advisor.
First time preparation of consolidated financial statements
Where in the prior year’s only parent separate financial statements have been prepared, but for the current reporting
period group consolidated financial statements are required Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited will
be required to apply AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards on transition to GPFS-Tier 2 SD.
In brief, AASB 1 must be applied as for the group reporting entity it is the first group set of Australian Accounting
Standards financial statements.
So, the disclosure prepared on the following pages in Appendix 2 are on the basis that:
this is the first ever group financial statements

in prior years Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited and each of its subsidiaries have complied wit
h
a

nd
an investment in an associate
Example Simplified Disclosures Proprietary Limited has not elected to apply any pf the voluntary optional
exemptions

contained with AASB 1.
AASB 1060 requirements
AASB 1060.208 requires an entity to explain how the transition from its previous financial reporting framework to
Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures affected its reported financial position, financial performance
and cash flows. The scenario described above does not require this explanation as the consolidated entity has not
previously prepared consolidated financial statements. This is the first time that the consolidated entity has
prepared financial statements. Therefore, no previous financial reporting framework was applied by the consolidated
entity.
For the same reason, the requirements of AASB 1060.210(b)-(c) do not apply. AASB 1060.210(b)-(c) require an
entity’s first financial statements prepared using Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures to include:
b) reconciliations of its equity determined in accordance with its previous financial reporting framework to its equity
determined in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures for both of the following
da
tes:
i. the date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures; a
nd
ii. t

These consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements for distribution to the
members and for the purposes of fulfilling the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. They have been
prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures made by the Australian
Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
These consolidated financial statements are the first general purpose financial statements prepared in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures and AASB 1 First time adoption of
Australian Accounting Standards
a
has been applied. An explanation of how the transition to Australian
Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures has affected the reported financial position, financial performance
and cash flows of the Group is provided in Note Y.
These consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Company’s board of directors on
[date].
Details of the Group’s accounting policies are included in Note 35.

Y. Changes in significant accounting policies and explanation of
transition to consolidated general purpose financial statements
As stated in Note 2, these are the Group’s first consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with
Australian Accounting Standards Simplified Disclosures. Previously the parent, Example Simplified Disclosure
Pty Ltd, prepared separate special purpose financial statements.
The Group has adopted AASB 1060 General Purpose Financial Statements – Simplified Disclosures for For-Profit
and Not-for-Profit Tier 2 Entities on 1 July 2021. On adoption of AASB 1060, the Group has applied AASB 1 First
Time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards with a date of initial application of 1 July 2020 (the Group’s
date of transition).The accounting policies set out in Note 35 have been applied in preparing the financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2022, the comparative information presented in these financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2021 and in the preparation of the opening balances for the statement of
financial position as at 1 July 2020.
In applying the requirements of AASB 1, the Group has made the adjustments set out below.
Consolidation of subsidiary
The Group’s investment in its subsidiary is consolidated from 1 July 2020, the date of transition. The Group has
applied the option in AASB 1 to recognise goodwill on consolidation as the difference between the net assets of
the subsidiary at the date of transition and the cost of the investment. Subsequent to transition, the Group
accounts for its investment in subsidiary in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 35(A).
The following table details the impact of applying this option.

Equity accounting investment in associate
a
The Group has a 35% share in an associate. The investment in the associate is equity accounted from 1 July
2020, the date of transition. At the date of transition, the Group has included in the carrying amount of the
investment in the equity-accounted associate the difference between the Group’s share of net assets of
associate and the cost of the investment. Subsequent to transition, the Group accounts for its investments in
associate in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 35(A)(iv)
.

a. The Group has previously accounted for its investment in its associate at cost. Where a Group previously accounted for its
investment in associates at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), any amounts previously recognised in OCI will
need to be adjusted accordingly on application of equity accounting on transition.
b. This reconciliation is not required as the consolidated entity has not previously prepared consolidated financial statements. This is
the first time that the consolidated entity has prepared financial statements. Therefore, no previous financial reporting framework
was applied by the consolidated entity. The explanation between equity reported in the separate special purpose financial
statements of the parent and the consolidated general purpose financial statements is provided to assist users in understanding the
impact of transitioning to Australian Accounting StandardsSimplified Disclosures and is for illustrative purposes only.

The following table shows the valuation techniques used in measuring fair values, as well as the significant
assumptions applied.
Type
Valuation technique
Significant assumptions
Standing timber
Standing timber

25 years (the age
at which it

Discounted cash flows: The valuation model
considers the present value of the net cash
flows expected to be generated by the
plantation. The cash flow projections include
specific estimates for [X] years. The expected
net cash flows are discounted using a risk-
adjusted discount rate.
Estimated future timber market prices per
tonne (2022: $12.817.9, weighted
a
verage $16.25; 2021: $11.616.3,

Cost approach and discounted cash flows:
The Group considers both approaches, and
reconciles and weighs the estimates under
each approach based on its assessment of
the judgement that market participants would
apply. The cost approach considers the costs
of creating a comparable plantation, taking
into account the costs of infrastructure,
cultivation and preparation, buying and
planting young trees with an estimate of the
profit that would apply to this activity.
Discounted cash flows consider the present
value of the net cash flows expected to be
generated by the plantation at maturity, the
expected additional biological transformation
and the risks associated with the asset; the
expected net cash flows are discounted using
risk-adjusted discount rates.
Estimated costs of infrastructure per
hectare (2022: $0.81.1, weighted
average $0.95; 2021: $0.81.2, weight
ed
a
verage $0.97).
Estimated costs of cultivation and
p
reparation per hectare (2022: $0.20.4,
weighted average $0.3; 2021: $0.30.4,
weighted average $0.35).
Estimated costs of buying and planti
ng
young trees (2019: $1.01.3, weighted
a
verage $1.25; 2018: $1.11.3, weight

weighted average $16.6).
Estimated yields per hectare (2022: 611,
weighted average 8.6; 2021: 711,
weighted average 8.9).
Risk-adjusted discount rate (2022: 8.9

here an entity measures its biological assets using the cost model, it discloses:
a description of each class of its biological assets;
an explanation of why fair value cannot be measured reliably;
the depreciation method used;
the useful lives or the depreciation rates used; and
the gross carrying amount and the accumulated depreciation (aggregated with accumulated impairment losses) at the beginning and end of
the period. (ref. AASB 1060.205)

Biological assets
[AASB 141.12-13]
Biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell, with any change therein recognised in profit or loss.
Inventories
[AASB 102.20]
The cost of standing timber transferred from biological assets is its fair value less costs to sell at the date of
harvest.

B. Measurement of fair values
AASB 1060.132(b)
The fair value of investment property was determined by external, independent property valuers, having
appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location and category of the
property being valued. The independent valuers provide the fair value of the Group’s investment property portfolio
every six months.
AASB 1060.132(a)
The following table shows the valuation technique used in measuring the fair value of investment property, as
well as the significant assumptions applied.
Valuation technique
Significant assumptions
Discounted cash flows: The valuation model
considers the present value of net cash flows to be
generated from the property, taking into account the
expected rental growth rate, void periods, occupancy
rate, lease incentive costs such as rent-free periods
and other costs not paid by tenants. The expected net
cash flows are discounted using risk-adjusted
discount rates. Among other factors, the discount rate
estimation considers the quality of a building and its
location (prime vs secondary), tenant credit quality
and lease terms.
Expected market rental growth (2022: 23%,
weighted average 2.6%; 2021: 23%, weighted
a
verage 2.5%).
Void periods (2022 and 2021: average 6 months after
the end of each lease).
Occupancy rate (2022: 9095%, weighted average
92.5%; 2021: 9195%, weighted average 92.8%).
Rent-free periods (2022 and 2021: 1-year period

Where an entity measures its property, plant and equipment at cost and investment property at fair value, it discloses the nature and purpose of a
revaluation reserve.
AASB 1060.45(b)
B. Nature and purpose of reserves

The carrying amount of investment property measured at fair value is presumed to be recovered through sale,
and the Group has not rebutted this presumption.
Property, plant and equipment
Reclassification to investment property
[AASB 140.61]
When the use of a property changes from owner-occupied to investment property, the property is remeasured to
fair value and reclassified accordingly. Any gain arising on this remeasurement is recognised in profit or loss to the
extent that it reverses a previous impairment loss on the specific property, with any remaining gain recognised in
OCI and presented in the revaluation reserve. Any loss is recognised in profit or loss. However, to the extent that
an amount is included in the revaluation surplus for that property, the loss is recognised in other comprehensive
income and reduces the revaluation surplus within equity.
Investment property
[AASB 140.20, 33, 35]
Investment property is initially measured at cost and subsequently at fair value with any change therein
recognised in profit or loss.
[AASB 140.62(b)(ii), 69]
Any gain or loss on disposal of investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from
disposal and the carrying amount of the item) is recognised in profit or loss. When investment property that was
previously classified as property, plant and equipment is sold, any related amount included in the revaluation
reserve is transferred to retained earnings.
[AASB 16.81]
Rental income from investment property is recognised as other revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of
the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental income, over the term of
the lease.

On 1 July 2017 and 1 July 2019, the Group established share option programmes that entitle key management
personnel to purchase shares in the Company. On 1 July 2021, a further grant on similar terms was offered to key
management personnel and senior employees. Under these programmes, holders of vested options are entitled
to purchase shares at the market price of the shares at grant date. Currently, these programmes are limited to
key management personnel and other senior employees.
The key terms and conditions related to the grants under these programmes are as follows; all options are to be

The fair value of the employee share options has been measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Service and
non-market performance conditions attached to the arrangements were not taken into account in measuring fair
value.
Expected volatility has been based on an evaluation of the historical volatility of the Company’s share price,
particularly over the historical period commensurate with the expected term. The expected term of the
instruments has been based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour.

Share-based payment arrangements
[AASB 2.1415, 1921A]
The grant-date fair value of equity-settled share-based payment arrangements granted to employees is generally
recognised as an expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period of the awards. The
amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and
non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised is based
on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting
date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant-date fair value of the share-based
payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and
actual outcomes.

Tax consolidation AI
1052 disclosures
This appendix provides extracts of example disclosures that would apply under AI 1052 Tax Consolidation Accounting when a tax funding
arrangement is in place with a head entity. The disclosures are based on the following assumptions:
the Company implemented tax consolidation as at 1 July 2003
under the tax funding arrangement the intercompany charge recognised equals the current tax liability of the subsidiary, resulting in neither a
contribution by the head entity to the subsidiary nor a distribution by the subsidiary to the head entity; and
deferred taxes are calculated by reference to the carrying amounts of the assets within the separate financial statements of each entity (i.e.
subsidiary carrying amounts less tax consolidation tax base).
E
ach entity will need to perform its own assessment of the impact AI 1052 has on its financial statements and provide disclosures accordingly.

amounts. The tax funding arrangements require payments to/from the head entity equal to the current tax liability
(asset) assumed by the head entity and any tax-loss deferred tax asset assumed by the head entity, resulting in the

n accordance with AI 1052, the Company recognises in each reporting period current tax amounts. Subsequently, in
accordance with the tax consolidation legislation, the head entity has assumed the current tax liability (asset) initially
recognised by the Company. Hence, the Company’s current tax liability (asset) has been derecognised immediately
after its initial recognition.
U
nder the tax funding arrangement the Company and the head entity recognise an inter-entity payable (receivable)
equal in amount to the current tax liability (asset) assumed. The Company continues to recognise tax expense
(income) even though it has derecognised its current tax liability or asset.

Ex
planatory notes on tax consolidation
1. [AASB 112.12] A current tax liability or asset is recognised for income tax payable or recoverable in respect of all periods to date. Under
AI 1052, this balance is assumed by the head entity of the tax-consolidated group.
2. [AI 1052.11(a), (b), (c)] Specific tax consolidation adjustments shall be accounted for by a subsidiary in a tax-consolidated group as
follows:
a) current tax liabilities (or assets) recognised for the period by the subsidiary shall be accounted for as immediately assumed by t
he
head entity
b) deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused relevant tax credits recognised for the period by the subsidiary shall
be accounted for as immediately assumed by the head entity
c) assets and liabilities (if any) arising for the subsidiary under a tax funding arrangement shall be recognised as amounts receivabl
e
f
rom or payable to other entities in the group; and
d) any differences between the net tax amount derecognised under paragraphs (a) and (b) and the net amount recognised under
paragraph (c) shall be recognised as a contribution by (or distribution to) equity participants between the subsidiary and the head
entity
[A
I 1052.42] The derecognition of a subsidiary’s current tax liability (or asset) is treated under AI 1052 as a contribution by (or distribution to) the
head entity, in conjunction with any tax funding arrangement amounts, on the basis that the transaction is with the parent in its capacity as the
parent. The definition of “income” (or “expenses”) in the Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements cannot be
satisfied, as the decrease in the subsidiary’s current tax liability (or asset) results from a contribution by or distribution to equity participants. AI
1052 does not prescribe which equity accounts are to be adjusted by subsidiaries for tax-consolidation contributions or distributions.
[AI 1052.44] The subsidiary recognises the assumption of its current tax liability or asset as a contribution by or distribution to the head entity, in
conjunction with any tax funding arrangement amounts. Thus, the subsidiary continues to recognise tax expense (income) even though it
derecognises its current tax liability or asset. The subsidiary may choose to classify a tax-consolidation equity contribution from the head entity as
contributed equity other than paid-in capital. A transaction that would result in an equity reduction for the subsidiary may be subject to legal
restrictions concerning capital distributions.
