INTRODUCTION
How to use this guide
The purpose of this publication is to help you in preparing annual financial reports in accordance
with Australian Accounting Standards, which are International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS
Standards) developed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB® Board) as adopted
by the AASB for for-profit entities.
It illustrates one possible format for financial statements for a fictitious multinational corporation
involved in general business (Example Public Company Limited).
This publication relates to both annual financial years ending 31 December 2020 and 30 June 2021 and
reflects standards and interpretations that have been issued by the AASB as at 31 August 2020 and that
are required to be applied by an entity with an annual period beginning on 1 January 2020 and 1 July 2020
(‘currently effective requirements’). The early adoption of standards or amendments to standards that are
Australian content
effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2020 (‘forthcoming requirements’) is not illustrated.
Although it is not exhaustive, this guide illustrates the disclosures required by IFRS Standards for one
hypothetical corporation, merely for illustrative purposes and, as such, largely without regard to materiality.
This guide should not be used as a boilerplate template. The preparation and presentation of financial
statements require the preparer to exercise judgement, in terms of the choice of accounting policies,
the ordering of notes to the financial statements, how the disclosures should be tailored to reflect the
entity’s specific circumstances, and the relevance of disclosures considering the needs of the users.
Primary statements
colleagues based on ‘pure’ IFRS Standards.
However to illustrate additional Australian specific disclosure and alternative presentation methods that
are commonly used in Australia, a separate section, has been included, just before the main financial
statements. A clear cross-reference to the Australian section is included on affected international pages.
Australian specific disclosure is shown in section one Australian content
Illustrative disclosure based on IFRS Standards is shown in section two Guide to annual financial
statements.
This hypothetical corporation (the ‘Group’) used in this publication has been applying the Standards
for some time – i.e. it is not a first-time adopter. If you are preparing your first set of annual financial
statements, that include an explicit and unreserved statement of compliance with IFRS Standards, you
are considered a first time adopter. For more information on first time adoption, see Chapter 6.1 in the
17th edition 2020/21 of our publication Insights into IFRS.
If you are recurring user of this guide:
We direct you to our What’s new page, which contains a summary of all new or revised accounting Notes
standards and regulatory changes that have been reflected in Example Public Company Limited since
the previous edition of this guide and references to other resources in the guide that you might find
useful to your financials statement preparation for the current period.
Materiality considerations
Materiality is relevant to the presentation and disclosure of the items in the financial statements.
Preparers need to consider whether the financial statements include all of the information that
is relevant to understanding an entity’s financial position at the reporting date and its financial
performance during the reporting period.
Preparers also need to take care not to reduce the understandability of an entity’s financial statements
by obscuring material information with immaterial information or by aggregating material information that
is different by nature or function. Individual disclosures that are not material to the financial statements
do not have to be presented – even if they are a minimum requirement of a standard. Preparers need
Appendices
to consider the appropriate level of disclosure based on materiality for the reporting period.
Specific guidance on materiality and its application to the financial statements is included in paragraphs
29–31 of AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements. In addition Making Materiality Judgements
(AASB Practice Statement 2) provides practical guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality in
the preparation of financial statements.

Corporate governance statement | 7
Introduction
The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (Principles and Recommendations)
apply to all ASX listed entities, regardless of its legal form (i.e. company, managed investment
scheme or stapled entity), whether it was established in Australia or whether it is internally or
externally managed. Whilst the Principles and Recommendations are designed to achieve good
corporate governance outcomes and meet reasonable investor expectations, the ASX Corporate
Governance Council acknowledges that different entities may legitimately adopt a range of
corporate governance practices.
As such, the Principles and Recommendations are not mandatory for listed entities nor do they
prescribe practices that an entity must adopt. However, where the Board of a listed entity chooses
AUSTRALIAN CONTENT
not to follow a particular recommendation, it must explain why – the ‘if not, why not’ approach –
including the period for which a recommendation was not followed, explanation and any alternative
governance practices adopted in lieu. Where a particular recommendation has been followed for
only part of the year, the part of the year for which it has been followed must be disclosed. It is not
sufficient to state that there have been no changes to the practices previously reported.
Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (Fourth Edition)
A listed entity has flexibility to make its corporate governance disclosures on its website or in its
annual report. Where an entity chooses to provide its corporate governance statement on its website,
it must lodge a copy of the statement at the same time the annual report is lodged with the ASX,
thus ensuring the ASX has a permanent record at its effective date each year, regardless of an entity’s
website changes (Listing Rule 4.7.4). In addition, the annual report needs to include the website
address of where the corporate governance statement can be found.
The corporate governance statement must also specify the date at which it is current (which must be
the entity’s balance date or later) and state that it has been approved by the board.
Primary statements
The Principles and Recommendations reflect a ‘best practice’ view of appropriate corporate
governance standards that other entities may find useful when framing its own corporate governance
policies and practices.
The 4th edition of the Principles and Recommendations is mandatory for entities with financial
years ending on or after 31 December 2020. The key changes compared to the previous version
included in the update address emerging issues around culture, values and trust. Changes to
Principle 3 shift the focus from the individual obligation to act ethically, to broader accountability
for the organisation’s culture and the entity’s interface with the community. This is aligned with
the focus on culture of ASIC, APRA and the Hayne Royal Commission.
The 4th edition also adds a new corporate reporting recommendation which will require boards
to re-think their reporting strategies, portfolios and approach to ensuring the integrity of their
corporate reports. Recommendation 4.3 singles out integrated reporting principles as a basis for
producing a stand-alone report or the directors’ report, including the OFR, in the annual report.

Introduction
location of the disclosure in the Directors’ report. Alternatively, the directors’ report could include
components of the corporate governance statement by reference, provided the corporate governance
statement is included with the financial statements and it is permitted by ASIC Corporations
(Directors’ Report Relief) Instrument 2016/188 .
The corporate governance statement should not form part of the financial report upon which the
company’s auditor expresses an opinion, except to the extent that it includes an audited remuneration
report. This would only occur when the corporate governance statement is presented within the
Directors’ report, because the remuneration report required by S300A must be located in the
directors’ report.
As the facts and circumstances are specific to an entity as to how it has followed the Principles and
Recommendations, this publication does not include an illustrative corporate governance statement.
For those entities opting to provide their corporate governance statement on their website,
the example below illustrates how the corporate governance statement could be appropriately
referenced from the annual report to the entity’s website.
Primary statements
“Example Public Company Limited maintains the highest standards of corporate governance in
accordance with the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4th edition).
For the financial year 30 June 2021, Example Public Company Limited’s Corporate Governance
Statement together with the ASX Appendix 4G as applicable to the Corporate Governance
Statement is available at examplepubliccompanylimited.com.au/CorporateGovernance and a copy
of the statement has been lodged with the ASX.“

not act in capacity of director during the period.

5 Principal activities
S299(1)(C) The principal activities of the Group during the course of the financial year were the manufacture
IAS 1.138(b) and sale of paper and forestry (cultivation of pine trees and the sale of wood as well as related
services).
In November 2020, the Group sold its entire Packaging division, a separate reportable segment
(see Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements). 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 2020.
AUSTRALIAN CONTENT
There were no other significant changes in the nature of the activities of the Group during the year.
In order to meet these objectives the following targets have been set for the 2022 financial year
and beyond:
– grow market share for existing business and increase revenue and operating activities of at least
10 percent per annum
– reduce operating costs by five percent per annum over the next two years
– consider further strategic alliances through joint ventures to minimise the risks to the Group
– complete 90 percent of contracts within their target timeframe
– further develop the management team by establishing a leadership programme.

Introduction
For the year ended 30 June 2021
S299(1)(d)
IAS 10.21 (a), (b)
8 Events subsequent to reporting datea
At the end of July 2021 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 today’s market conditions, and the effects of the global recession, it is intended
to reduce the Group’s workforce by 400 positions worldwide by 30 June 2022, by means of
non-replacement wherever possible. The Group expects the restructuring associated with the
reduction in positions to cost $600,000 to $850,000 in the year ending 30 June 2022.

Subsequent to 30 June 2021 one of the Group’s major trade customers went into liquidation
following a natural disaster in August 2020 that damaged its operating plant. Of the $100,000
owed by the debtor, the Group expects to recover less than $10,000. No allowance for
impairment has been made in the consolidated financial statements.
On 10 July 2021, one of the premises of Oy Kossu AG, having a carrying amount of $220,000, 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 reported in the condensed interim financial statements on 22 January 2021 the Group announced
its intention to acquire all of the shares of ABC Company for $6,500,000. On 4 July 2021 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 2021.
Subsequent to 30 June 2021, 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.
On 23 September 2021, an increase in the Netherlands corporate tax rate from 25 to 30 percent
was substantively enacted, effective from 1 January 2022. This increase does not affect the
amounts of current or deferred income taxes recognised at 30 June 2021. However, this change
will increase the Group’s future current tax charge accordingly. If the new tax rate was applied to
calculate taxable temporary differences and tax losses recognised as at 30 June 2021, the effect
would be that net deferred tax assets would increase by $27,000.
Other 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 Company, 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. Notes

– all non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the
Group and have been reviewed by the audit committee to ensure they do not impact the
integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and
– the non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor
independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did

S300(11B) a. ‘Non-audit services’ is not a defined term in the Corporations Act 2001. For the purposes of clear and transparent reporting
any services provided by the auditor which are not the audit or review of financial statements should be included.
ASIC encourages certain categorisation of fees to auditors to aid in the consistent and transparent reporting of audit
and non-audit fee information. See footnotes to Note 48 for further information.
S300(2A), An entity that has not included details of non-audit services in the directors’ report but specifies that this information
S300(11B)(a), may be found in this note to the financial statements, discloses the amount for each non-audit service in that note in
S300(11C)(b) order to comply with the Corporations Act 2001 requirements.
S300(11B)(a) b. Comparative information is not required.
c. Although it is not required, we encourage entities to split fees from assurance services from fees for non-assurance
services. We also encourage assurance services to be further split between “regulatory assurance services” and
“other assurance services”.This disclosure is provided for illustrative purposes only.
d. Regulatory assurance services are those that are required under legislation and are performed by the auditor, for
example, Form FS 71 for an AFS licensee, workers compensation, APRA reports, US Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
Section 404, franchising code of conduct and retirement villages.
Appendices
e. Other assurance services are fees for other assurance and agreed-upon-procedures services such as those required
under contractual arrangements. Examples include, assurance on revenue information relevant to a royalty agreement,
sustainability assurance reporting and capital raisings.
f. KPMG has defined other services as services that do not fall within regulatory or other assurance services e.g. tax
advice, tax compliance, consulting.
g. The amount paid for audit services and the total amount paid to auditors are not required to be disclosed in the directors’
report. It is included to allow an assessment of the level of audit to non-audit fees paid to the auditor during the year.

a. KPMG considers separate presentation for the lead auditor’s independence declaration to be preferable due to the
difficulty in determining the placement of the declaration in the directors’ report to ensure it is clear that the audit
partner is only providing sign off in relation to the declaration rather than the entire directors’ report, to enable it to be
on KPMG letterhead and therefore to facilitate improved reporting of the information to the users.

Notes
S300A(2)
a. The directors’ report of a listed disclosing entity that is a company must include a remuneration report.
S308(3C) b. The entire remuneration report must be audited for compliance with S300A. Using the word ‘audited’ within each
section header of the remuneration report is one example of how the audited information might be distinguished from
the unaudited disclosures contained in the directors’ report. Another method could be to label each audited page as
audited, so long as the end of the audited material is obvious to the reader.
S250R(2),(3) c. The remuneration report of a listed company is subject to a non-binding vote of adoption by shareholders at the
S300A(1)(g) AGM. Where 25 percent or more of the votes cast at the most recent AGM were against adoption of that report, the
subsequent remuneration report must include an explanation of the board’s action in response, or if the board does
not propose any action, the board’s reasons for inaction.
Appendices
RG 230 d. Some companies disclose alternative remuneration amounts that are measured and/or allocated to annual periods on a
basis that is not entirely consistent with the Corporations Act requirement to use accounting standards when disclosing
remuneration amounts. For example, alternative equity compensation presented might be amounts determined in
the year of vesting based on the value at vesting date, rather than the grant date fair value being spread over the
vesting period. These disclosures are in addition to the statutory disclosures that are measured in accordance with the
accounting standards. Such companies should consider the requirements of RG 230 so that the additional, alternative
disclosures are not misleading to users.

Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth
S300A(1AA),(1AB) [An entity provides a discussion of the relationship between the remuneration policy and the company’s
performance, specifically dealing with the matters illustrated below.a]
In considering the Group’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the remuneration
committee have regard to the following indices in respect of the current financial year and the previous
four financial years.b
ASIC RG230.20(f)(ii) Profit is one of the financial performance targets considered in setting the Short Term Incentive
(STI). Profit amounts have been calculated in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.
Operating income is operating profit as reported in the statement of profit or loss.
S300A(1)(ba) a. When an element of remuneration includes a performance condition that involves comparing the company against one
(iv)(B) or more other companies, a company discloses that list of other companies. Some companies use a published index
of companies or a subset of such an index in setting their performance conditions, such as the ASX 50 or the ASX 100
excluding specified industries. Other companies use a specific basket of worldwide competitor companies. Disclosure of
the comparator companies does not always need to name the actual companies, but should be specific enough to enable a
user to arrive at the actual list of companies. This may involve disclosing the name of the published index of companies (e.g.
‘ASX 100 companies’), naming the index and the specific exclusions (e.g. ‘ASX 100 companies excluding those in the financial
Appendices
services and extractive industries’), or listing the individual companies in the comparator group. Cross referencing to a list that
is not contained in the remuneration report will not achieve compliance with the Corporations Act 2001 requirements.
S300A(1AB)(c) b. In determining the consequences of the company’s performance on shareholder wealth in a financial year,the company
must also have regard to any return of capital by the company to its shareholders during the year that involves:
• the cancellation of shares in the company, and
• a payment to holders of those shares that exceeds the price at which shares in that class are being traded at the
time when the shares are cancelled.

C. The fair value of performance rights with the relative TSR condition is calculated at the date of grant using the Monte-Carlo simulation model, taking
into account the impact of the TSR condition and the lack of dividends during the vesting period. The fair value of performance rights with the
operating income growth condition is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into account the lack of dividends during
the vesting period. The value disclosed is the portion of the fair value of the rights recognised as an expense in each reporting period.
D. In accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits, annual leave is classified as an other long term employee benefit.
Reg d. In a remuneration report, comparative information is only required for amounts of remuneration required by Items 6, 7, 8, 9 and 11 of
2M.3.03(2) Corporations Regulation 2M.3.03(1). Comparative information for other remuneration report disclosures (e.g. narratives and other qualitative
information) is not required.
e. There is no explicit requirement to disclose total KMP remuneration, however this is a common disclosure and may be useful to a
shareholder.
Appendices
Reg f. The Corporations Act 2001 requires the relevant individuals to be disclosed, regardless of whether they retired during the year. Hence, if
2M.3.03(3) an executive meets the definition of a KMP for only part of the current year, this executive would be included in the KMP disclosures, for
the period the executive met the KMP definition. This would be the case regardless of whether the executive is still KMP at year-end. For
example, a manager of a subsidiary is promoted during the year. On promotion, the manager meets the definition of a KMP. Before year
end, the parent entity sells this subsidiary. The consolidated financial statements would include disclosures about this manager for the
period the manager met the definition of KMP – from promotion until sale of subsidiary. However, in the following year, disclosures for
this individual could be deleted from the Remuneration report.

Directors’ report | 31
Introduction
For the year ended 30 June 2021
A number of these entities transacted with the Group during the year. The terms and conditions of the transactions
with KMP and their related parties were no more favourable than those available, or which might reasonably be
AUSTRALIAN CONTENT
expected to be available, on similar transactions to non-key management personnel related entities on an arm’s
length basis.
Reg 2M.3.03(3B) From time to time, directors of the Group, or their related entities, may purchase goods from the Group. These
purchases are on the same terms and conditions as those entered into by other Group employees or customers, and
are trivial or domestic in nature.
* Other changes represent shares that were purchased or sold during the year

Dated at …...................……… (City) this ……… day of …………………… 2021.
Notes
Reg 2M.3.03(1) a. Details of each type of transaction between the disclosing entity and a KMP, or any KMP related party, are disclosed.
Items 22-24 However, disclosure is not required for transactions that meet the following criteria:
Reg 2M.3.03(3B)
a. t he transaction occurs within a normal employee, customer or supplier relationship on terms and conditions no more
favourable than those that it is reasonable to expect the entity would have adopted if dealing at arms-length with an
unrelated person; and
b. information about the transaction does not have the potential to affect adversely decisions about the allocation
of scarce resources made by users of the financial statements, or the discharge of accountability by the key
management person; and
c. the transaction is trivial or domestic in nature.
This disclosure exemption is only available for other transactions covered by Reg 2M.3.03(1) Items 22-24.
Reg 2M.3.03(1) b. The disclosures related to the movements in equity instruments should be done in relation to each type of equity
Items 18 instrument.
Reg 2M.3.03(1) c. When an individual ceased to be a KMP before the end of the reporting period, entities should clearly disclose the basis

Items 18 for the end of period number of shares disclosed. It may be appropriate to indicate ‘n/a’ at period end, explaining that the
individual was not a KMP at that date.
Similar consideration should be given in relation to the beginning balance for individuals who became KMP during the
reporting period.
Reg 2M.3.03(1) d. Separate disclosure of the number of equity instruments held nominally at the end of the reporting period is made.

IAS 1.10 a. An entity may also use other titles – e.g. ‘balance sheet’ – as long as the meaning is clear and the title not misleading.
Insights 2.8.50.110 b. When comparatives are restated, in our view, although it is not specifically required by IFRS, labelling the
comparatives as restated is necessary to highlight that the comparatives are not the same as the financial
statements published previously.
Similarly, when new standards are applied but comparative information has not been restated (e.g. when recognising
the cumulative effect of applying new standards in the opening balance of equity), it may be useful to highlight that fact.
IAS 1.10(f), 40A c. The Group has presented a third statement of financial position as at the beginning of the preceding period, because
the correction of errors (see Note 44) has a material effect on the information in the statement.
IFRS 16.47(a) d. The Group has presented right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property within ‘property,
Appendices
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.
Right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment property are presented within ‘investment property’.
Insights 7.10.40.50 e. In our view, derivative assets and liabilities should be presented as separate line items in the statement of financial
position if they are significant.

IAS 1.60–61 f. The Group has made a current/non-current distinction in the statement of financial position. An entity may present its assets and
liabilities broadly in order of liquidity if such a presentation provides information that is reliable and more relevant. Our publication Notes
Guide to annual financial statements – Illustrative disclosures for banks provides an example presentation of assets and liabilities in
order of liquidity.
IFRS 15.B21, BC367 g. IFRS 15 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 notes
(see Note 17).
IAS 1.54–55, h. Although it is not specifically required, the Group has presented in the statement of financial position line items related to contract
IFRS 15.105, 109, assets and contract liabilities. An entity also applies the requirements in IAS 1 in classifying contract assets and contract liabilities as
A, BC320-BC321, current or non-current. For further guidance, see Insights 4.2.510.
Insights 4.2.510 Although this guide uses the terms ‘contract assets’ and ‘contract liabilities’, an entity may also use other terms.
IAS 1.66, i. The Group has classified prepayments as current because they relate to the purchase of inventories and are expected to be realised
Insights 3.1.30 within 12 months of the reporting date. An entity should apply the requirements in IAS 1 in determining whether to classify prepayments
as current or non-current.
IFRS 16.47(b) j. The Group has presented lease liabilities within ‘loans and borrowings’. Alternatively, an entity (a lessee) may choose to present lease
liabilities separately from other liabilities in the statement of financial position.
IFRS 15.55 k. The Group has presented its refund liabilities under IFRS 15 as ‘trade and other payables’. The Group’s returns policy offers only an
Appendices
exchange for another good – i.e. the Group does not offer a cash refund. Therefore, refund liabilities do not meet the definition of a
financial liability in IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation. If a refund liability or a liability related to a repurchase agreement meets the
definition of a financial liability in IAS 32, then it is subject to the disclosure requirements in IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures.
Insights 3.1.10.30, l. The Group has presented amounts owed for the purchase of goods or services but subject to reverse factoring within ‘trade and other
7.10.35.70–100 payables’ because it considers that the nature or function of the financial liability is not sufficiently different from a trade payable and
does not warrant a separate presentation on the face of the statement of financial position. In our view, regardless of whether the
original trade payable is derecognised, an entity should consider the appropriate presentation of amounts related to reverse factoring
arrangements in the statement of financial position. The Group has disclosed those amounts separately in the notes. See Note 29.

information has also been re‑presented due to a discontinued operation and a change in classification.
See Notes 7 and 21(H) respectively.
The notes on pages 68 to 227 are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.
IAS 1.10A a. The Group has elected to present comprehensive income using a ‘one-statement’ approach. For an illustration of the alternative ‘two-
statement’ approach, see Appendix II.
IAS 1.82 b. IAS 1 requires the separate presentation of specific line items in the statement of profit or loss. The Group has not presented certain line
items because during the reporting period it did not have events or transactions to be reflected in those line items. See footnotes (c) and
(e) below for specific considerations related to separate presentation of line items in the statement of profit or loss.
IFRS 15.113, c. It appears that an entity is not required to present revenue from contracts with customers as a separate line item in the statement of
IAS 1.29–30, 85, profit or loss and may aggregate it with other types of revenue considering the requirements in IAS 1. However, in providing a separate
disclosure of revenue from contracts with customers – either in the notes or in the statement of profit or loss – we believe that an entity
Insights 4.2.560.25 should not include amounts that do not fall in the scope of IFRS 15 (see Note 8).
IAS 1.82(a), d. The Group has presented interest income on financial assets that are subsequently measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as part of ‘finance
Insights 7.10.60.30 income’ because it does not consider it as part of its revenue-generating activities. If the interest income, calculated using the effective
interest method, constituted revenue, then the entity would be required to separately present that income as interest revenue in the
statement of profit or loss and OCI. It appears that an entity may present interest income from other financial assets in another revenue line
item if it arises in the course of the entity’s ordinary activities.
IAS 1.99–100 e. 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.
IAS 1.82(ba), 85, f. An entity that presents the analysis of expenses by function or by nature in the statement of profit or loss and OCI may face challenges in
31, 97, 99, determining how this presentation interacts with the specific requirements to present the effect of some events or circumstances as a single Notes
amount in the statement of profit or loss and OCI – e.g. impairment losses determined under Section 5.5 of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.
Insights 4.1.20.40 The Group has applied judgement in determining an appropriate presentation and disaggregated the impairment loss amount into:
– impairment related to trade and other receivables, including contract assets, which is presented separately in the statement of profit or
loss and OCI; and
– impairment related to investments in debt securities, which is not presented separately but included under ‘finance costs’ due to
materiality considerations.
The Group believes that this presentation is relevant to an understanding of its financial performance.
IAS 1.85, g. The Group has presented a subtotal of ‘operating profit’. When an entity presents results from operating activities, it ensures that the
BC55–BC56 amount disclosed is representative of activities that would normally be regarded as ‘operating’, and it would be inappropriate to exclude
items clearly related to operations.
IAS 1.82(b), IFRS h. The Group has presented interest expense on the lease liability separately from the depreciation charge for the right-of-use asset. Interest
16.49, 7.IG13 expense on the lease liability is a component of finance costs, which is presented separately in the statement of profit or loss and OCI.
IFRS 5.33(a)–(b), i. The Group has elected to disclose a single amount of post-tax profit or loss of discontinued operations in the statement of profit or loss
IAS 1.82(ea) and OCI, and has analysed that single amount into revenue, expenses and the pre-tax profit or loss in Note 7. Alternatively, an entity may
present the analysis in the statement.
IAS 1.90–91 j. The Group has elected to present individual components of OCI before related tax with an aggregate amount presented for tax in the
statement of profit or loss and OCI, and has provided disclosures related to tax on each component of OCI in Note 14(B). Alternatively, an
entity may present individual components of OCI net of related tax in the statement.
IFRS 9.6.5.11– k. IFRS 9 specifies whether and when amounts previously recognised in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss. However, in some circumstances it
Appendices
6.5.15, IAS may be unclear at the time when a gain or loss is recognised in OCI whether it will subsequently be reclassified to profit or loss. For example,
1.82A(a), Insights if an entity hedges a future purchase of a non-financial item, then the related hedging gains and losses will subsequently be included in the
7.10.90.35 initial cost of the non-financial item and affect profit or loss when the non-financial item is disposed of or written down. Conversely, if the
future hedged cash flows are no longer expected to occur or if a loss is no longer expected to be recoverable, then the hedging gains or
losses will be reclassified to profit or loss. Accordingly, in our view gains or losses on cash flow hedges and costs of hedging relating to the
future recognition of a non-financial asset or liability should be presented in OCI as items that may be subsequently reclassified to profit or
loss when specific conditions are met.
IAS 1.94 l. The Group has elected to present reclassification adjustments in the statement of profit or loss and OCI. Alternatively, an entity may
present these adjustments in the notes.

IAS 32.33, Insights 7.3.560 a. The Standards do not mandate a specific method of presenting treasury shares within equity. However, local laws may
prescribe the allocation method. Therefore, an entity needs to take into account its legal environment when choosing how
to present its own shares within equity. An entity needs to choose a presentation format, to be applied consistently to
all treasury shares. The Group has elected to present the total cost of treasury shares as a separate category of equity.

equivalent to the consolidated Group profit for the year.
IAS 1.78(e), 79(b), 108, c. Generally, IFRS 2 Share-based Payment does not address whether an increase in equity recognised in connection
Insights 4.5.900.30 with a share-based payment transaction should be presented in a separate component within equity or within
retained earnings. In our view, either approach is allowed. The Group has elected to present such increase in
retained earnings.

The notes on pages 68 to 227 are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements
IAS 7.18-19 a. The Group has elected to present cash flows from operating activities using the direct method, disclosing major classes of gross cash
receipts and payments related to operating activities. Alternatively, an entity may present operating cash flows using the indirect method.
IFRS 16.50, IAS b. The Group has classified:
7.17(e) – cash payments for the principal portion of lease payments as financing activities;
– cash payments for the interest portion as operating activities consistent with the presentation of interest payments chosen by the Notes
Group (see footnote (e) below); and
– short-term lease payments and payments for leases of low-value assets as operating activities.
The Group has not restated comparative information.
IAS 7.10–11, 43, c. There is no specific guidance in the IFRS Standards on the classification of cash flows from reverse factoring arrangements. However,
Insights 2.3.75.40 in our view it is the nature of the activity, rather than the classification of the related item in the statement of financial position, that
determines the classification of the cash outflow. The Group classifies its cash outflows for payments made to the bank within operating
activities because it views the principal nature of these payments as related to the purchase of goods and services. The Group considers
the payment to a supplier by the bank not to be a cash transaction and has provided disclosure of non-cash transactions. See Note 29.
There may be other acceptable approaches depending on the legal form and structure of reverse factoring arrangements.
IAS 7.31, d. IFRS requires cash flows from interest and dividends received and paid to be disclosed separately. In our view, such disclosure is required
Insights 2.3.50.10- in the statement of cash flows, rather than in the notes. In the absence of specific guidance in IFRS, an entity chooses an accounting policy,
20 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.
Insights 2.3.50.38 e. In our view, an entity should choose an accounting policy, to be applied consistently, to classify cash flows related to capitalised
interest as follows:
Appendices
– as cash flows from investing activities if the other cash payments to acquire the qualifying asset are reflected as investing activities; or
– consistently with interest cash flows that are not capitalised (which has been applied by the Group).
IAS 7.10, IFRS f. The Group has elected to present a statement of cash flows that analyses all cash flows in total – i.e. including both continuing and
5.33(c), discontinued operations; amounts related to discontinued operations by operating, investing and financing activities are disclosed
Insights 5.4.220.50 in Note 7. However, in our view cash flows from discontinued operations may be presented in ways in which the requirements of IFRS
5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations and IAS 7 regarding cash flow presentation may be met.

a. This illustrative disclosure excludes auditors’ remuneration for associates or joint ventures but includes partnerships
and joint operations. An entity may want to separately disclose auditors’ remuneration for associates and joint
ventures, in which case we recommend additional line items be included within each section for transparency.
b. 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.
c. 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. Notes
d. Half-year audit and review fees for entities in the group are included in ‘audit and review services’.
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 1054.10,11 An entity is required to describe the nature of all services provided that do not relate to the audit or review of the
financial statements. There is no requirement to provide an amount for each non-audit service.
S300(2A), However, an entity that has not included detailed amounts for all non-audit services in the directors’ report but has
S300(11B)(a), specified that this information may be found in the financial statements, discloses the amount for each non-audit
S300(11C)(b) service in this note in order to comply with the Corporations Act 2001 requirements.
g. Regulatory assurance services are those that are required under legislation and are performed by the auditor, for
example, Form FS 71 for an AFS licensee, workers compensation, APRA reports, US Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

Illustrative disclosures – Voluntary tax disclosures | 53
Introduction
The disclosures on the following pages illustrate one way in which an entity might incorporate Part A
of the Tax Transparency Code (The Code) requirements, released by the Board of Taxation in May 2016,
within its annual financial statements. The Code disclosures are divided into:
• Part A (Financial statements or other report – for businesses with a turnover of AU$100 million
or over)
• Part B (‘Taxes Paid’ report – for businesses with a turnover of A$500 million or over).
The Code is a voluntary code. An entity may therefore wish to disclose that it is voluntarily adopting the
Code, and to what extent it is doing it – whether it is doing Part A and Part B disclosures; and where
other taxes might be reported elsewhere.
AUSTRALIAN CONTENT
The Code proposes that where a business is only required to adopt Part A, that the information can be
displayed either as improved tax disclosure in its general purpose financial report or in another document.
An entity will need to consider whether a separate report would achieve the objectives of the Code, or
whether it could include the information in its financial statements in a manner that provides the desired
level of transparency and ‘plain English’ explanation.
Comparative information is not required for the first year of disclosure.
In May 2017, the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB), at the request of the Board of Taxation,
included an Appendix to the Code, providing draft guidance on implementing the Code. The guidance
sets out the necessary disclosures to ensure interested parties can better understand the differences,
if any, between the effective tax rate (ETR) under the Code and the accounting ETR prepared in
accordance with accounting standards. The calculation of the ETR is consistent with the example
included in these financial statements.
On 29 February 2019, the Board of Taxation released a consultation paper which proposed changes
to the Code following feedback from earlier consultation sessions. The submission date for feedback was
26 March 2019. At the date of this publication there have been no decisions on changes to the Code.

Notes
a. The reconciliation to the effective income tax expense illustrated in Example Public commences with ‘Profit before tax from
continuing operations’. To calculate the effective tax rate for continuing and discontinued operations, this reconciling item is
required. Where an entity commences from a basis of continuing and discontinued operations, this reconciling item will not
be required.
b. There may be items recognised in or recycled out of other comprehensive income (OCI), or recognised in equity that result in
movements in temporary differences. Whilst Example Public Company Limited did not have such items for the years ended
Appendices
30 June 2021 and 2020, these should be separately disclosed where the client has these and they are material.
c. This illustrative disclosure cross-references to the note to the financial statements where the net movement in deferred tax
balances is further disaggregated. Such detail could be included here rather than providing a cross-reference.
d. The reconciliation to income taxes payable can also be extended to income taxes paid. Alternatively, the Code states that a
reconciliation from income tax expense to income taxes paid could be provided. If presented in the annual financial statements,
this would necessitate reconciling the prior year tax expense as taxes are usually paid in the subsequent financial year.

Primary statements
Notes
a. The ETRs should be calculated as company income tax expense divided by accounting profit. Calculation of the ETR based on
company tax expense only will enable the users of the disclosure to make comparisons both to the company tax rate and to
other companies. The Board of Taxation has specified that the global ETR should be calculated ‘for the worldwide accounting
consolidated group’ of which the Australian operations form a part.
b. As required in the Code, this example includes company income taxes only. No adjustments have been made for other taxes
as Example Public Company Limited does not have taxes other than company income tax that meets the AASB 112 definition
of income taxes and therefore is in the scope of AASB 112. Other taxes (for example, government royalties, PRRT) could be
included in an additional ETR disclosure. The basis of calculation of the ETR should clearly identify what has been included and
any underlying assumptions.
Appendices
c. The Code does not specify which entity needs to provide the disclosures, for example the ETR could be calculated on a tax
consolidated group basis or on a legal entity basis or another basis. The key to providing transparency is to clearly identify any
basis of calculation.
d. Disclosure of the Company (that is, the parent) ETR is not required by the Code. This is additional to what is required.
e. While not provided in this illustrative disclosure, an explanation of variances to the domestic company tax rate and movements
year on year should be provided.

PRIMARY STATEMENTS
Re
IAS 1.10 a. An entity may also use other titles – e.g. ‘balance sheet’ – as long as the meaning is clear and the title not misleading.
Insights 2.8.50.110 b. When comparatives are restated, in our view, although it is not specifically required by IFRS Standards, labelling
the comparatives as restated is necessary to highlight that the comparatives are not the same as the financial
statements published previously.
Similarly, when new standards are applied but comparative information has not been restated due to the transition
method elected (e.g. when recognising the cumulative effect of applying new standards in the opening balance of
equity), it may be useful to highlight that fact.
IAS 1.10(f), 40A c. The Group has presented a third statement of financial position as at the beginning of the preceding period, because
the correction of errors (see Note 44) has a material effect on the information in the statement.
Notes
IFRS 16.47(a), 48 d. The Group has presented right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property 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.
Right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment property are presented within ‘investment property’.
Insights 7.10.40.50 e. In our view, derivative assets and liabilities should be presented in separate line items in the statement of financial
position if they are significant.
IAS 1.60–61 f. The Group has made a current/non-current distinction in the statement of financial position. An entity may present its
assets and liabilities broadly in order of liquidity if such a presentation provides information that is reliable and more
relevant. Our publication Guide to annual financial statements – Illustrative disclosures for banks provides an example
presentation of assets and liabilities in order of liquidity.
IFRS 15.B21, BC367 g. IFRS 15 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 these assets within ‘inventories’ and
disclosed them separately in the notes (see Note 17).
IAS 1.54–55, h. Although it is not specifically required, the Group has presented in the statement of financial position line items
Appendices
IFRS 15.105, 109, related to contract assets and contract liabilities. For further guidance on applying the requirements in IAS 1 for
A, BC320–BC321, classification of contract assets and contract liabilities as current or non-current, see 4.2.510 in Insights into IFRS.
Insights 4.2.510
Although this guide uses the terms ‘contract assets’ and ‘contract liabilities’, an entity may also use other terms.
IAS 1.66, i. The Group has classified prepayments as current because they relate to the purchase of inventories and are expected
Insights 3.1.30 to be realised within 12 months of the reporting date. An entity should apply the requirements in IAS 1 in determining
whether to classify prepayments as current or non-current.

Notes
IFRS 16.47(b) j. The Group has presented lease liabilities within ‘loans and borrowings’. Alternatively, an entity (a lessee) may choose
to present lease liabilities separately from other liabilities in the statement of financial position.
IFRS 15.55 k. The Group has presented its refund liabilities under IFRS 15 as ‘trade and other payables’. The Group’s returns policy
offers only an exchange for another good – i.e. the Group does not offer a cash refund. Therefore, refund liabilities
do not meet the definition of a financial liability in IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation. If a refund liability or a
liability related to a repurchase agreement meets the definition of a financial liability in IAS 32, then it is subject to the
disclosure requirements in IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures.
Appendices
Insights 3.1.10.30, l. The Group has presented amounts owed for the purchase of goods or services but related to reverse factoring within
7.10.35.70–100 ‘trade and other payables’ because it considers that the nature and function of the financial liability is not different
from other trade payables and does not warrant a separate presentation on the face of the statement of financial
position. In our view, regardless of whether the original trade payable is derecognised, an entity should consider the
appropriate presentation of amounts related to reverse factoring arrangements in the statement of financial position.
The Group has disclosed those amounts separately in the notes. See Note 29.

Notes
IAS 1.10A a. The Group has elected to present comprehensive income using a ‘one-statement’ approach. For an illustration of the
alternative ‘two-statement’ approach, see Appendix II.
IAS 1.82 b. IAS 1 requires the separate presentation of specific line items in the statement of profit or loss. The Group has not
presented certain line items because during the reporting period it did not have events or transactions to be reflected
in those line items. See footnotes (c) and (d) below for specific considerations related to separate presentation of line
items in the statement of profit or loss.
IFRS 15.113, c. It appears that an entity is not required to present revenue from contracts with customers as a separate line item
IAS 1.29–30, 85, in the statement of profit or loss and may aggregate it with other types of revenue considering the requirements in
Insights 4.2.560.25 IAS 1. However, in providing a separate disclosure of revenue from contracts with customers – either in the notes
or in the statement of profit or loss – we believe that an entity should not include amounts that do not fall in the scope
of IFRS 15 (see Note 8).
IAS 1.82(a), d. The Group has presented interest income on financial assets that are subsequently measured at amortised cost
Insights 7.10.60.30 or FVOCI as part of ‘finance income’ because it does not consider it as part of its revenue-generating activities.
If the interest income, calculated using the effective interest method, constituted revenue, then the entity would be
Appendices
required to separately present that income as interest revenue in the statement of profit or loss and OCI. It appears
that an entity may present interest income from other financial assets in another revenue line item if it arises in the
course of the entity’s ordinary activities.
IAS 1.99–100 e. 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.

Introduction
Australian content
IAS 1.82(ba), 85, f. An entity that presents the analysis of expenses by function or by nature in the statement of profit or loss and
PRIMARY STATEMENTS
31, 97, 99, OCI may face challenges in determining how this presentation interacts with the specific requirements to present
Insights 4.1.20.40 the effect of some events or circumstances as a single amount in the statement of profit or loss and OCI – e.g.
impairment losses determined under Section 5.5 of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.
The Group has applied judgement in determining an appropriate presentation and disaggregated the impairment loss
amount into:
– impairment related to trade and other receivables, including contract assets, which is presented separately in the
statement of profit or loss and OCI; and
– impairment related to investments in debt securities, which is not presented separately but included under ‘finance
costs’ due to materiality considerations.
The Group believes that this presentation is relevant to an understanding of its financial performance.
IAS 1.85, g. The Group has presented a subtotal of ‘operating profit’. When an entity presents results from operating activities, it
BC55–BC56 ensures that the amount disclosed is representative of activities that would normally be regarded as ‘operating’, and
it would be inappropriate to exclude items clearly related to operations.
IAS 1.82(b), h. The Group has presented interest expense on the lease liability separately from the depreciation charge for the right-
IFRS 16.49, 7.IG13 of-use asset. Interest expense on the lease liability is a component of finance costs, which are presented separately
in the statement of profit or loss and OCI.
IFRS 5.33(a)–(b), i. The Group has elected to disclose a single amount of post-tax profit or loss of discontinued operations in the Notes
IAS 1.82(ea) statement of profit or loss and OCI, and has analysed that single amount into revenue, expenses and the pre-tax profit
or loss in Note 7. Alternatively, an entity may present the analysis in the statement.
IAS 1.90–91 j. The Group has elected to present individual components of OCI before related tax with an aggregate amount
presented for tax in the statement of profit or loss and OCI, and has provided disclosures related to tax on each
component of OCI in Note 14(B). Alternatively, an entity may present individual components of OCI net of related tax
in the statement.
IFRS 9.6.5.11, k. IFRS 9 specifies whether and when amounts previously recognised in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss. However,
6.5.15, in some circumstances it may be unclear at the time when a gain or loss is recognised in OCI whether it will
IAS 1.82A(a), subsequently be reclassified to profit or loss. For example, if an entity hedges a future purchase of a non-financial
Insights 7.10.90.35 item, then the related hedging gains and losses will subsequently be included in the initial cost of the non-financial
item and affect profit or loss when the non-financial item is disposed of or written down. Conversely, if the future
hedged cash flows are no longer expected to occur or if a loss is no longer expected to be recoverable, then the
hedging gains or losses will be reclassified to profit or loss. Accordingly, in our view gains or losses on cash flow
hedges and costs of hedging relating to the future recognition of a non-financial asset or liability should be presented
Appendices
in OCI as items that may be subsequently reclassified to profit or loss when specific conditions are met.
IAS 1.94 l. The Group has elected to present reclassification adjustments in the statement of profit or loss and OCI.
Alternatively, an entity may present these adjustments in the notes.
IAS 1.85–85B, m. The Group has disclosed adjusted EBITDA because management believes that this measure is relevant to an
BC38G, understanding of the entity’s financial performance. This disclosure is provided for illustrative purposes only.

IAS 32.33, a. The Standards do not mandate a specific method of presenting treasury shares within equity. However, local laws
Insights may prescribe the allocation method. Therefore, an entity needs to take into account its legal environment when
7.3.560.10–20 choosing how to present its own shares within equity. An entity needs to choose a presentation format, to be applied
consistently to all treasury shares. The Group has elected to present the total cost of treasury shares as a separate
category of equity.

IAS 1.78(e), 79(b), b. Generally, IFRS 2 Share-based Payment does not address whether an increase in equity recognised in connection
108, Insights with a share-based payment transaction should be presented in a separate component within equity or within
4.5.900.30 retained earnings. In our view, either approach is allowed under the Standards. The Group has elected to present

IAS 7.18–19 a. The Group has elected to present cash flows from operating activities using the indirect method. Alternatively, an
entity may present operating cash flows using the direct method, disclosing major classes of gross cash receipts and
payments related to operating activities (see Appendix III).
IAS 7.18, 20, A, b. The Group has used ‘profit or loss’ as the starting point for presenting operating cash flows using the indirect method.
Insights 2.3.30.20 This is the starting point referred to in IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, although the example provided in the appendix
to the standard starts with a different figure – ‘profit before taxation’. Because the appendix is illustrative only and
therefore does not have the same status as the standard, it would be more appropriate to follow the standard.

assumptions in determining the weighted-average loss rate; and
– Notes 34(A) and (C) – acquisition of subsidiary: fair value of the consideration transferred
(including contingent consideration) and fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed,
measured on a provisional basis.
i. Measurement of fair values
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.
IFRS 13.93(g) The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values.
This includes a valuation team that has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value
measurements, including Level 3 fair values, and reports directly to the chief financial officer.
The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments.
If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values,
then the valuation team assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the NOTES
conclusion that these valuations meet the requirements of the Standards, including the level in
the fair value hierarchy in which the valuations should be classified.

– Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
– Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Australian content
– Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs).
If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the
fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level
of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
IFRS 13.95 The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the
reporting period during which the change has occurred.
Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in the
following notes:
– Note 12(B) – share-based payment arrangements;a

IFRS 13.6(a) a. The Group has included in the list above a reference to the disclosures about the measurement of fair values for

Measurement do not apply to these arrangements.
IFRS 13.BC184 b. The Group has disclosed information about the fair value measurement of assets acquired in a business combination,
although the disclosure requirements of IFRS 13 do not apply to the fair value of these assets if they are subsequently
measured at other than fair value. This disclosure is provided for illustrative purposes only.

Introduction
IAS 8.28 5. Changes in significant accounting policiesa
The Group has initially adopted Definition of a Business (Amendments to IFRS 3) and Interest Rate
Benchmark Reform (Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7) from 1 January 2020. A number of
other new standards are also effective from 1 January 2020 but they do not have a material effect
on the Group’s financial statements.b
Australian content
The Group applied the interest rate benchmark reform amendments retrospectively to hedging
relationships that existed at 1 January 2020 or were designated thereafter and that are directly
affected by interest rate benchmark reform. These amendments also apply to the gain or loss
accumulated in the cash flow hedging reserve that existed at 1 January 2020. The details of the
accounting policies are disclosed in Note 45(O)(v). See also Note 32(C)(iv) for related disclosures
about risks and hedge accounting.
Primary statements
NOTES
IAS 8.28 a. The description of the nature and effects of the changes in accounting policies presented is only an example that
reflects the business of the Group, and may not be representative of the nature and effects of the changes for
other entities. It is given for illustrative purposes largely without regard to materiality.
Amendments to standards and interpretations that are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2020 are
Appendices
described in Appendix I.
IAS 1.38 b. Comparative information is generally required in respect of the preceding period for all amounts reported in the
current period’s financial statements and, if it is relevant to understanding the current period’s financial statements,
also for narrative and descriptive information. However, when entities adopt new accounting standards without
restating comparative information, the disclosure requirements of the new standards do not normally apply to the
comparative period because the comparative information reflects the requirements of the superseded standards.

6. Operating segmentsa
A. Basis for segmentation
IFRS 8.20–22 The Group has the following six strategic divisions, which are its reportable segments. These
divisions offer different products and services, and are managed separately because they require
different technology and marketing strategies.
The Group’s chief executive officer reviews the internal management reports of each division at
least quarterly.
Primary statements
IFRS 8.16, Other operations include the cultivation and sale of farm animals (sheep and cattle), the construction
IAS 41.46(a)
of storage units and warehouses, the rental of investment property and the manufacture of furniture
and related parts (see Notes 8 and 16). None of these segments met the quantitative thresholds for
reportable segments in 2020 or 2019.
IFRS 8.27(a) There are varying levels of integration between the Forestry and Timber Products segments, and
the Non-recycled Papers and Recycled Papers segments. This integration includes transfers of raw
materials and shared distribution services, respectively. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an
arm’s length basis.
NOTES
IFRS 8.IN13, 27–28 a. Operating segment disclosures are consistent with the information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker
(CODM) and will vary from one entity to another and may not be in accordance with the Standards.
To help users of the financial statements understand the segment information presented, an entity discloses
information about the measurement basis adopted – e.g. the nature and effects of any differences between the
measurements used in reporting segment information and those used in the entity’s financial statements, the nature
and effect of any asymmetrical allocations to reportable segments and reconciliations of segment information to the
corresponding amounts reported in the financial statements.
The Group’s internal measures used in reporting segment information are consistent with the Standards. Therefore,
Appendices
the reconciling items are limited to items that are not allocated to reportable segments, as opposed to a difference in
the basis of preparation of the information.
IFRS 8.12, 22(aa) b. When two or more operating segments are aggregated into a single operating segment, the judgements made by
management in applying the aggregation criteria are disclosed. This includes a brief description of the operating
segments that have been aggregated in this way and the economic indicators that have been assessed in
determining that the aggregated operating segments share similar economic characteristics.

Insights 5.2.220.20 a. In our view, entity-wide disclosures by region (e.g. Europe or Asia) do not meet the requirement to disclose

Appendices
IFRS 8.32, IG5 b. As part of the required ‘entity-wide disclosures’, an entity discloses revenue from external customers for each
product and service, or each group of similar products and services, regardless of whether the information is used by
the CODM in assessing segment performance. This disclosure is based on the financial information used to produce
the entity’s financial statements. The Group has not provided additional disclosures in this regard, because the Group
has already met that disclosure requirement by providing the external revenue information in Note 6(B), which has
been prepared in accordance with the Standards, and the disaggregated revenue information in Note 8.

See accounting policy in Note 45(C).
IFRS 5.30, 41(a)–(b), In February 2020, the Group sold its entire Packaging segment (see Note 6). Management
41(d)
committed to a plan to sell this segment early in 2020, 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, forestry and the manufacture of timber products.
Australian content
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-segment sales (and costs thereof, less unrealised profits) made before its
disposal. Because purchases from the discontinued operation will continue after the disposal,
inter-segment purchases made by the continuing operations before the disposal are retained in
continuing operations.

IAS 1.98(e)
Insights a. In our view, considering that IFRS 5 does not specify how the elimination should be attributed to continuing and
5.4.230.40 discontinued operations (see Note 6(B)–(C)), an entity may present transactions between the continuing and
discontinued operations in a way that reflects the continuance of those transactions, when that is useful to the users
of the financial statements. It may be appropriate to present additional disclosure either on the face of the statement

of profit or loss and OCI or in the notes. In our experience, if the additional disclosure is provided in the statement
of profit or loss and OCI, then judgement may be required over whether the disaggregated information should
be presented as part of the statement itself or as an additional disclosure alongside the totals in that statement. Clear
disclosure of the approach taken to the elimination of intra-group transactions will be relevant, including an explanation
of any additional analysis of discontinued operations in the notes to the statement of profit or loss and OCI.
IAS 33.68 b. The Group has elected to present basic and diluted EPS for the discontinued operation in the notes. Alternatively,
basic and diluted EPS for the discontinued operation may be presented in the statement of profit or loss and OCI.

IFRS 15.119(b), a. IFRS 15 requires an entity to provide disclosure about costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. The Group

NOTES
IFRS 15.112, 114, b. Some entities may not be able to meet the objective in paragraph 114 of IFRS 15 for disaggregating revenue by
BC340 providing segment revenue information and may need to use more than one type of category. Other entities
may meet the objective by using only one type of category. Even if an entity uses consistent categories in the
segment note and in the revenue disaggregation note, further disaggregation of revenue may be required because
the objective of providing segment information under IFRS 8 is different from the objective of the disaggregation
disclosure under IFRS 15 and, unlike IFRS 8, there are no aggregation criteria in IFRS 15.
Nonetheless, an entity does not need to provide disaggregated revenue disclosures if the information about revenue
provided under IFRS 8 meets the requirements of paragraph 114 of IFRS 15 and those revenue disclosures are
based on the recognition and measurement requirements in IFRS 15.
Appendices
IFRS 15.115 c. An entity is required to disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the
relationship between the disclosure of disaggregated revenue and revenue information that is disclosed for each
reportable segment, if the entity applies IFRS 8.
IFRS 15.114, 5.5B d. Although it is not explicitly required to include discontinued operations as part of the disaggregation of revenue
from contracts with customers, the Group has provided that information.

IAS 33.70(c) At 31 December 2020, 135,000 options (2019: 44,000) were excluded from the diluted weighted-
average number of ordinary shares calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
The average market value of the Company’s shares for the purpose of calculating the dilutive

awards of the Company with a contractual life of nine years from the vesting date (see Note 34(A)(ii)).
iii. Share purchase plan (equity-settled)
On 1 January 2020, the Group offered 26 of its employees the opportunity to participate in an
employee share purchase plan. To participate in the plan, the employees are required to save an NOTES
amount of 5% of their gross monthly salary, up to a maximum of €300 per month, for a period of
36 months. Under the terms of the plan, at the end of the 36-month period the employees are
entitled to purchase shares using funds saved at a price of 20% below the market price at grant
date. Only employees that remain in service and save the required amount of their gross monthly
salary for 36 consecutive months will become entitled to purchase the shares. Employees who
cease their employment, do not save the required amount of their gross monthly salary in any
month before the 36-month period expires, or elect not to exercise their options to purchase
shares will be refunded their saved amounts.
iv. Share appreciation rights (cash-settled)
On 1 January 2015 and 1 January 2020, the Group granted 100,000 and 300,000 share appreciation
rights (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.

96 | Example Public Company Limited
– Plan A entitles a retired employee to receive an annual pension payment. Directors and
executive officers (see Note 41(B)(i) retire at age 60 and are entitled to receive annual payments
equal to 70% of their final salary until the age of 65, at which time their entitlement falls to 50%
of their final salary. Other retired employees are entitled to receive annual payments equal to
Primary statements
1/60 of final salary for each year of service that the employee provided.
– Plan B reimburses certain medical costs for retired employees.
The defined benefit plans are administered by a single pension fund that is legally separated from the
Group. The board of the pension fund comprises three employee and two employer representatives
and an independent chair. The board of the pension fund is required by law to act in the best interests
of the plan participants and is responsible for setting certain policies (e.g. investment, contribution
and indexation policies) of the fund.
IAS 19.139(b) These defined benefit plans expose the Group to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, currency
risk, interest rate risk and market (investment) risk.
A. Funding
IAS 19.147(a) Plan A is fully funded by the Group’s subsidiaries, except for the obligation for directors and
executive officers, which is funded by the Company. The funding requirements are based on
the pension fund’s actuarial measurement framework set out in the funding policies of the plan.
NOTES
The funding of Plan A is based on a separate actuarial valuation for funding purposes for which
the assumptions may differ from the assumptions set out in (D). Employees are not required
to contribute to the plans. Plan B is unfunded.
The Group has determined that, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the defined
benefit plans, and in accordance with statutory requirements (including minimum funding
requirements for Plan A) for the plans of the respective jurisdictions, the present value of refunds
or reductions in future contributions is not lower than the balance of the total fair value of the plan
assets less the total present value of obligations. This determination has been made on a plan-
by-plan basis. As such, no decrease in the defined benefit asset was necessary at 31 December
2020 or 31 December 2019.
IAS 19.147(b) The Group expects to pay €350 thousand in contributions to its defined benefit plans in 2021.
Appendices
IAS 1.69, 19.133 a. Although it is not required to distinguish the current and non-current portions of assets and liabilities arising from
post-employment benefits, the Group distinguishes between the current and non-current portions of obligations
arising from long-term employee benefits if it does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability
at least 12 months from the reporting date.

IAS 19.138 a. The Group has more than one defined benefit plan and has generally provided aggregated disclosures in respect of
these plans, on the basis that they are not exposed to materially different risks. Further disaggregation of some or all
of the disclosures – e.g. by geographic locations or by different characteristics – would be required if this were not
the case.
b. Although it is not specifically required by IAS 19 Employee Benefits, the Group has disclosed the subtotals of items

Appendices
IAS 21.39, c. A net obligation under a defined benefit plan may be denominated in a foreign currency from the point of view
Insights 4.4.1010 of the sponsor’s financial statements. In our view, in that case the net defined benefit liability (asset) should first
be calculated in the currency in which it is denominated, and the resulting net amount should then be translated
into the sponsor’s functional currency. As a result, the foreign exchange gain or loss arising on translation will be
recognised together with other foreign exchange gains and losses, rather than as part of the IAS 19 remeasurement.
This is different from the situation illustrated above. In this case, the sponsor of the plan is a foreign subsidiary, and
therefore the translation difference is recognised in OCI in the usual way.

IAS 19.146 At each reporting date, an Asset-Liability Matching study is performed by the pension fund’s

– interest rate risk is managed with the objective of reducing the cash flow interest rate risk
by 40% through the use of debt instruments (government bonds) and interest rate swaps;

IAS 12.81(h)(i)–(ii) ‘Tax expense on continuing operations’ excludes the Group’s share of the tax expense of equity-

IAS 10.22(h), 12.81(d), In December 2020, a new corporate tax law was enacted in France. Consequently, as of 1 July
88
2021, the corporate tax rate in France will be reduced from 30 to 29%. This change resulted in a
gain of €15 thousand related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities of the
Group’s French subsidiary, Baguette S.A., being recognised during the year ended 31 December
2020. In addition, on 23 March 2021, an increase in the corporate tax rate in the Netherlands from
25 to 30% was substantively enacted, effective from 1 January 2022. This increase does not affect
the amounts of current or deferred income taxes recognised at 31 December 2020. However, this
change will increase the Group’s future current tax charge accordingly. If the new tax rate were
applied to calculate taxable temporary differences and tax losses recognised as at 31 December
2020, then the net deferred tax assets would increase by €27 thousand.
IAS 12.81(d) In December 2019, numerous changes to the tax law were enacted in Denmark, including a NOTES
decrease in the corporate tax rate from 35 to 21%. This change resulted in a gain of €5 thousand
related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities of the Group’s consolidated
Danish entity, Mermaid A/S, being recognised during the year ended 31 December 2019.
a. 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 and tax rates of the
respective entities need to be used. All tax impacts in this guide are calculated using the tax rate of 33%.
Tax Transparency b. The Tax Transparency Code (the Code) released by the Board of Taxation requires businesses with a turnover
Code - Part A of AU$100 million or over to voluntarily disclose additional tax information in their financial statements or other

for an example that illustrates one way in which an entity might incorporate additional disclosure requirements

Insights
3.13.580.20–80 employment benefit plans to profit or loss because the cash contributions relate primarily to service costs. In our
view, the allocation of the current income tax effect to profit or loss and OCI should reflect the nature of the cash
contribution, unless it is impracticable to identify whether the cost to which the funding relates affects profit or loss or
OCI. We believe that a number of allocation approaches are acceptable if the nature of the cash contribution is unclear.

measured deferred tax relating to these investments using the tax rates applicable to dividends, which are zero
because such dividends are tax-exempt. As a result, no deferred tax has been recognised.

dividends from these reserves.

In 2019, the Group’s Danish subsidiary, Mermaid A/S, launched a new production line that
would allow it to reduce costs significantly going forward and improve profitability. As a result,
management revised its estimates of future taxable profits and the Group recognised the tax
effect of €727 thousand of previously unrecognised tax losses (tax impact: €240 thousand)
because management considered it probable that future taxable profits would be available against
which such losses can be used. In 2020, Mermaid A/S achieved its planned profitability; therefore,
management continues to consider it probable that future taxable profits would be available
against which the tax losses can be recovered and, therefore, the related deferred tax asset can
be realised.

Income taxes
Introduction
14. Income taxes (continued)
H. Tax losses carried forward (continued)
In 2020, the Group’s Romanian subsidiary, Lei Sure Limited, incurred a tax loss of €124 thousand,
increasing cumulative tax losses to €644 thousand (2019: €520 thousand). Management has
determined that the recoverability of cumulative tax losses, which expire in 2023–2027, is
uncertain due to surplus capacity/supply depressing paper prices in Romania. Based on the
five‑year business plan and taking into account the reversal of existing taxable temporary
differences, Lei Sure Limited is not expected to generate taxable profits until 2026. However, if
paper prices improve more quickly than forecast or new taxable temporary differences arise in the
next financial year, then additional deferred tax assets and a related income tax benefit of up to
Australian content
€213 thousand could be recognised.
Of the Group’s current tax provision, €63 thousand (2019: nil) relates to management’s estimation
Primary statements
of the amount of tax payable by the Group’s German subsidiary Papier GmbH for the ongoing tax
review, which its tax authority opened in March 2020. The uncertain tax treatment relates to the
interpretation of how the tax legislation applies to the Group’s transfer pricing arrangements. Due
to the uncertainty involved, there is a possibility that the outcome of the tax review is significantly
different from the amount currently recognised. Although management has used a single best
estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid, it is anticipated that the reasonably possible
outcome of current tax liabilities sits within a range between €51 thousand and €72 thousand.
The Group believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open tax years based on
its assessment of many factors, including interpretations of tax law and prior experience.
NOTES
Appendices
a. Management of the Group analysed the specific facts and circumstances of the open tax review and determined
that it is necessary to provide information about assumptions and estimates related to the uncertain tax treatment
required by paragraph 125 of IAS 1.
b. The Group provided quantitative disclosure of the sensitivity of the amount of the uncertain tax treatment to
the method, assumptions and estimates underlying the calculation. Other approaches to the disclosure may be
acceptable to meet the requirements of paragraph 129 of IAS 1.

The Group is exposed to risks arising from fluctuations in the price and sales volume of timber.
When possible, the Group manages this risk by aligning its harvest volume to market supply and
demand. Management performs regular industry trend analyses for projected harvest volumes
and pricing.

The Group’s pine plantations are exposed to the risk of damage from climatic changes, diseases,
forest fires and other natural forces. The Group has extensive processes in place aimed at
monitoring and mitigating those risks, including regular forest health inspections and industry pest
and disease surveys. The Group is also insured against natural disasters such as forest fires, floods
and hurricanes.

IAS 1.98(a), 2.36(d) In 2020, inventories of €54,019 thousand (2019: €53,258 thousand) were recognised as an expense
during the year and included in ‘cost of sales’.
IAS 2.36(e)–(g) During 2019, due to regulatory restrictions imposed on the manufacture of a new product in the
Non-recycled Papers segment, the Group tested the related product line for impairment (see
Note 22(C)(ii)) and wrote down the related inventories to their net realisable value, which resulted
in a loss of €42 thousand. In 2020, following a change in estimates, €10 thousand of the write-
down was reversed.
In addition, inventories have been reduced by €345 thousand (2019: €125 thousand) as a result
of the write-down to net realisable value. This write-down was recognised as an expense
during 2020.

B. Impairment loss and subsequent reversal
IAS 36.126(a)–(b) During 2019, due to regulatory restrictions imposed on the manufacture of a new product in the
Non-recycled Papers segment, the Group tested the related product line for impairment and
recognised an impairment loss of €1,123 thousand with respect to plant and equipment. In 2020, NOTES
€393 thousand of the loss was reversed. Further information about the impairment loss and
subsequent reversal is included in Note 22(C)(ii).
C. Leased plant and equipment
IAS 7.43 During 2020, the Group leased land and buildings and recognised a right-to-use asset of
€150 thousand (2019: €180 thousand of production equipment). Some leases provide the Group
with the option to buy the equipment at a beneficial price.

F. Transfer to investment property
During 2020, a building was transferred to investment property (see Note 23(A)), because it was
no longer used by the Group and it was decided that the building would be leased to a third party.
IFRS 13.93(d) Immediately before the transfer, the Group remeasured the property to fair value and recognised
a gain of €200 thousand in OCI. The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used
in measuring the fair value of the building at the date of transfer were the same as those applied to
investment property at the reporting date (see Note 23(C)(ii)).

IAS 8.39, 16.76 During 2020, 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.

The recoverable amount of the CGU that included these development costs (the factory using
the process) was estimated based on the present value of the future cash flows expected to be
derived from the CGU (value in use), assuming that the regulatory approval would be passed by
July 2021 and using a pre-tax discount rate of 12% and a terminal value growth rate of 2% from
2025. The recoverable amount of the CGU was estimated to be higher than its carrying amount
and no impairment was required.

IAS 36.130(a), (d)(i) During 2019, a regulatory inspection revealed that a new product in the Non-recycled Papers
segment 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
2020; however, as a result of the regulatory restrictions, production and the expected launch date
were deferred.
IAS 36.130(e) Accordingly, management estimated the recoverable amount of the CGU (the product line)

in 2019. The recoverable amount was estimated based on its value in use, assuming that the
production line would go live in August 2021.
In 2020, following certain changes to the recovery plan, the Group reassessed its estimates and
reversed part of the initially recognised impairment.
IAS 36.130(g), 132 The estimate of value in use was determined using a pre-tax discount rate of 10.5% (2019: 9.8%)
and a terminal value growth rate of 3% from 2025 (2019: 3% from 2024).a

was assumed that the sales price would increase in line with forecast inflation over the next
five years.

the CGU operates. Other environmental costs are assumed to grow with inflation in other years.

growth rate estimated by management.
Budgeted EBITDA was based on expectations of future outcomes taking into account past
experience, adjusted for anticipated revenue growth. Revenue growth was projected taking into
account the average growth levels experienced over the past five years and the estimated sales
volume and price growth for the next five years. It was assumed that sales prices would grow at a
constant margin above forecast inflation over the next five years, in line with information obtained
from external brokers who publish a statistical analysis of long-term market trends.
IAS 36.134(f) Following the impairment loss recognised in the Group’s Timber Products CGU, the recoverable
amount was equal to the carrying amount. Therefore, any adverse movement in a key assumption
would lead to further impairment.

A20, Insights However, in our experience it is more common to use post-tax cash flows and a post-tax discount rate such as the
3.10.840.10–20 weighted-average cost of capital. Challenges arise in following a post-tax approach appropriately so that the resulting
value in use is consistent with the pre-tax principle.
Whichever rate is used (pre- or post-tax), the pre-tax discount rate needs to be disclosed. When value in use is
determined using post-tax cash flows and a post-tax discount rate, the pre-tax discount rate needs to be calculated
to comply with the disclosure requirements.

financial statement users. We believe that in most cases, disclosing the names of individual investees would be
appropriate – e.g. if an entity has a small number of individually significant investments, particularly if this disclosure
enables users to access additional information about those investees from other sources. However, in some cases
disclosure at a higher level of aggregation and disclosures other than the names of investees may provide more
useful information. For example, if an entity has a large number of individually insignificant investments in a few
industries, then disclosure by industry may be appropriate. Similarly, if an entity holds investments for which no
public information is available, then disclosure about the nature and purpose of those investments may be relevant.

IAS 1.135(a) The board of directors seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be
possible with higher levels of borrowing and the advantages and security afforded by a sound
capital position. The Group’s target is to achieve a return on capital above 23%; in 2020 the return
was 29.9% (2019: 24.3%). The weighted-average interest expense on interest-bearing borrowings
(excluding liabilities with imputed interest) was 5.8% (2019: 5.5%).
Australian content
Management is considering extending the Group’s share option programme beyond key
management and other senior employees. Currently, other employees are awarded SARs
and participate in an employee share purchase programme (see Note 12(A)). The Group is in
discussions with employee representatives, but no decisions have been made.
IAS 1.135(a) The Group monitors capital using a ratio of ‘net debt’ to ‘adjusted equity’. Net debt is calculated
as total liabilities (as shown in the statement of financial position) less cash and cash equivalents.
Adjusted equity comprises all components of equity other than amounts accumulated in the
hedging and cost of hedging reserves.a
The Group’s policy is to keep the ratio below 2.00. The Group’s net debt to adjusted equity ratio at
31 December 2020 was as follows.

28. Loans and borrowings (continued)
B. Breach of loan covenant
IFRS 7.18–19 The Group has a secured bank loan with a carrying amount of €3,460 thousand at 31 December
2020 (2019: €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 in the third quarter of 2020 and the
threshold was still exceeded as at 31 December 2020. However, management obtained a waiver

from the bank in October 2020, which extended until March 2022. Accordingly, the loan was not
payable on demand at 31 December 2020 (see Note 37).a

Insights 3.1.40.130 a. 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.

with disclosures of changes in other assets and liabilities, then it discloses the changes in liabilities arising from
financing activities separately from changes in those other assets and liabilities.

Primary statements
The Group participates in a supply chain finance programme (SCF) under which its suppliers may
elect to receive early payment of their invoice from a bank by factoring their receivable from the
Group. Under the arrangement, a bank agrees to pay amounts to a participating supplier in respect
of invoices owed by the Group and receives settlement from the Group at a later date. The principal
purpose of this programme is to facilitate efficient payment processing and enable the willing
suppliers to sell their receivables due from the Group to a bank before their due date.
The Group has not derecognised the original liabilities to which the arrangement applies because
neither a legal release was obtained nor the original liability was substantially modified on entering
into the arrangement. From the Group’s perspective, the arrangement does not significantly
extend payment terms beyond the normal terms agreed with other suppliers that are not
participating. The Group does not incur any additional interest towards the bank on the amounts
due to the suppliers. The Group therefore discloses the amounts factored by suppliers within
trade payables because the nature and function of the financial liability remain the same as those
of other trade payables but discloses disaggregated amounts in the notes. All payables under the

A. Government grants
IAS 20.39(b)–(c) The Group has been awarded two government grants. One of the grants, received in 2019,
amounted to €1,462 thousand and was conditional on the acquisition of factory premises in a
specified region. The factory has been in operation since early 2020 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 2020, was unconditional, amounted to €200 thousand and related to
pine trees. This grant was recognised in profit or loss in full and presented in ‘other income’ when
it became receivable (see Note 9(A)). There is no outstanding balance of deferred income related
to this grant as at 31 December 2020.

IAS 37.85(a)–(c) The provision for warranties relates mainly to paper sold during 2019 and 2020. 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 ‘other trade
receivables’ (see Note 18) following a supplier accepting responsibility for the defective products.
B. Restructuring

restructuring part of a manufacturing facility within the Non-recycled Papers segment that will be
retained when the remainder of the facility is sold (see Note 20). Estimated restructuring costs
mainly include employee termination benefits (see Note 13(E)) and are based on a detailed plan
agreed between management and employee representatives. The restructuring and the sale are
expected to be completed by June 2021.
During 2019, the Group committed to a plan to restructure a product line in the American Paper

31. Provisions (continued)
C. Site restoration
i. France
IAS 37.85(a) A provision of €740 thousand was made during 2019 and an unwind of the discount of
€60 thousand was recognised in 2020 in respect of the Group’s obligation to rectify environmental
damage in France. The required work was completed during 2020 at a cost of €800 thousand.
ii. Romania
IAS 1.125,129, Under Romanian law, the Group’s subsidiary in Romania is required to restore contaminated land
37.85(a)–(b)
to its original condition before the end of 2023. During 2020, the Group provided €660 thousand
Australian content
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%, which is the risk-free rate in
Romania. The rehabilitation is expected to occur in the next two to three years.
IAS 34.26 The provision has increased compared with the amount of €500 thousand reported in the
Company’s interim financial statements as at 30 June 2020 due to a change in estimated costs. At
the time of preparing the interim financial statements, the extent of restoration work required was
uncertain, because the inspection report by the Romanian authorities had not yet been finalised.
Primary statements
The estimates were subsequently revised based on the final report.
iii. Acquisition of Papyrus
As part of the acquisition of Papyrus, the Group recognised environmental provisions of
€150 thousand, measured on a provisional basis (see Note 34(C)).
D. Legal
IAS 37.86(a)–(b) As a result of the acquisition of Papyrus, the Group assumed a contingent liability of €20 thousand,
measured on a provisional basis (see Note 34(C)).
E. Levies
IAS 37.85(a) The Group operates in a number of countries in which it is subject to government levies.
It assesses the timing of when to accrue environmental taxes imposed by legislation at the end of
the tax year (31 March) on entities that manufacture pulp products. The Group recognised a liability
to pay environmental taxes on 31 March, when the obligating event as stated in the legislation
occurred. It paid that liability in full at a later date. NOTES
Therefore, at 31 December 2020 no liability for environmental taxes has been recognised. An expense
of €102 thousand has been recognised in profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2020.

IFRS 7.8, 29 a. In this table, the Group has disclosed the fair value of each class of financial assets and financial liabilities in a way
that permits the information to be compared with the carrying amounts. In addition, it has reconciled the assets
and liabilities to the different categories of financial instruments as defined in IFRS 9. This presentation method is
optional and different presentation methods may be appropriate, depending on circumstances.
Appendices
The Group has not disclosed the fair values of financial instruments such as short-term trade receivables and
payables, because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of fair value.
IFRS 7.6, B1–B3 b. An entity groups financial instruments into classes that are appropriate to the nature of the information disclosed
and that take into account the characteristics of those financial instruments. Although IFRS 7 does not define
‘classes’, as a minimum instruments measured at amortised cost should be distinguished from instruments
measured at fair value.

C. Financial risk management
The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
Primary statements
– credit risk (see (C)(ii));
– liquidity risk (see (C)(iii)); and
– market risk (see (C)(iv)).
i. Risk management framework
IFRS 7.31, 33(b) The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight
of the Group’s risk management framework. The board of directors has established the risk
management committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk
management policies. The committee reports regularly to the board of directors on its activities.
The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced
by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to
limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards
NOTES
and procedures, aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all
employees understand their roles and obligations.
The Group audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s
risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management
framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The Group audit committee is assisted in its
oversight role by internal audit. Internal audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk
management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the audit committee.
Appendices
IFRS 7.34 a. The financial risk disclosures presented are only illustrative and reflect the facts and circumstances of the Group.
In particular, IFRS 7 requires the disclosure of summary quantitative data about an entity’s risk exposures based on
information provided internally to an entity’s key management personnel, although certain minimum disclosures are
also required to the extent that they are not otherwise covered by the disclosures made under the ‘management
approach’ above.

about customers) and applying experienced credit judgement. Credit risk grades are defined
using qualitative and quantitative factors that are indicative of the risk of default and are aligned to
external credit rating definitions from agencies [Rating Agencies X and Y].
Exposures within each credit risk grade are segmented by geographic region and industry
classification and an ECL rate is calculated for each segment based on delinquency status and
actual credit loss experience over the past seven years. These rates are multiplied by scalar factors
to reflect differences between economic conditions during the period over which the historical
data has been collected, current conditions and the Group’s view of economic conditions over the
expected lives of the receivables.
Scalar factors are based on GDP forecast and industry outlook and include the following: 1.3 (2019:
1.2) for [Country X], 0.9 (2019: 0.8) for [Country Y], 1.1 (2019: 1.2) for [Country Z] and 1.8 (2019: 1.9)

separately for exposures in different segments based on the following common credit risk
characteristics – geographic region, age of customer relationship and type of product purchased.

Debt securities
IFRS 7.33(a)–(b), The Group limits its exposure to credit risk by investing only in liquid debt securities and only with
35B(a), 35F(a), counterparties that have a credit rating of at least A2 from [Rating Agency X] and A from [Rating
35G(a)–(b)
Agency Y].
The Group monitors changes in credit risk by tracking published external credit ratings.
Australian content
To determine whether published ratings remain up to date and to assess whether there has been
a significant increase in credit risk at the reporting date that has not been reflected in published
ratings, the Group supplements this by reviewing changes in bond yields and, where available,
credit default swap (CDS) prices together with available press and regulatory information
about debtors.
12-month and lifetime probabilities of default are based on historical data supplied by
[Rating Agency X] for each credit rating and are recalibrated based on current bond yields and
CDS prices. Loss given default (LGD) parameters generally reflect an assumed recovery rate of
40% except when a security is credit-impaired, in which case the estimate of loss is based on the
instrument’s current market price and original effective interest rate.
IFRS 7.34(a), (c) The exposure to credit risk for debt securities at amortised cost, FVOCI and FVTPL at the reporting

iii. Liquidity risk
IFRS 7.31, 33 Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations
associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial
asset. The Group’s objective when managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will
have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed
conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
Australian content
The Group uses activity-based costing to cost its products and services, which assists it in
monitoring cash flow requirements and optimising its cash return on investments.
IFRS 7.34(a), 39(c), The Group aims to maintain the level of its cash and cash equivalents and other highly marketable
B10A
debt investments at an amount in excess of expected cash outflows on financial liabilities (other
than trade payables) over the next 60 days. The ratio of investments to outflows was 1.65 at
31 December 2020 (2019: 1.58). The Group also monitors the level of expected cash inflows on
trade and other receivables together with expected cash outflows on trade and other payables.
At 31 December 2020, the expected cash flows from trade and other receivables maturing
within two months were €12,331 thousand (2019: €8,940 thousand) and the expected cash
outflows from trade and other payables due within two months were €8,336 thousand (2019:
€7,250 thousand). This excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot
reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

IFRS 7.39(b)–(c), B11D The inflows/(outflows) disclosed in the above table represent the contractual undiscounted cash
flows relating to derivative financial liabilities held for risk management purposes and which are
not usually closed out before contractual maturity. The disclosure shows net cash flow amounts for
derivatives that are net cash-settled and gross cash inflow and outflow amounts for derivatives that
have simultaneous gross cash settlement.
IFRS 7.B10A As disclosed in Notes 28 and 37, 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 if the Group’s net
debt to adjusted equity ratio exceeds 1.95. Under the agreement, the covenant is monitored NOTES
on a regular basis by the treasury department and regularly reported to management to ensure
compliance with the agreement.
The interest payments on variable interest rate loans and bond issues in the table above reflect
market forward interest rates at the reporting date and these amounts may change as market
interest rates change. The future cash flows on contingent consideration (see Note 34(A)) and
derivative instruments may be different from the amount in the above table as interest rates and
exchange rates or the relevant conditions underlying the contingency change. Except for these
financial liabilities, it is not expected that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could
occur significantly earlier, or at significantly different amounts.a
Appendices
Insights a. When the amount payable is not fixed, the amount to be disclosed is determined with reference to conditions
7.10.650.110 existing at the reporting date. For example, for a floating-rate bond with interest payments indexed to three-month
Euribor, in our view the amount to be disclosed should be based on forward rates rather than spot rates prevailing
at the reporting date because the spot interest rates do not represent the level of the index based on which the
cash flows will be payable. The forward interest rates better describe the level of the index in accordance with the
conditions existing at the reporting date.

Derivatives
IFRS 7.24H(a), (c), The Group holds interest rate swaps for risk management purposes which are designated in cash
31, 33 flow hedging relationships. The interest rate swaps have floating legs that are indexed to either
Euribor or sterling LIBOR. The Group’s derivative instruments are governed by contracts based on
the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA)’s master agreements.
[ISDA is currently reviewing its standardised contracts in the light of IBOR reform and plans to
amend certain floating-rate options in the 2006 ISDA definitions to include fallback clauses that
would apply on the permanent discontinuation of certain key IBORs. ISDA is expected to publish
an IBOR fallback supplement to amend the 2006 ISDA definitions and an IBOR fallback protocol
to facilitate multilateral amendments to include the amended floating-rate options in derivative
transactions that were entered into before the date of the supplement. The Group currently plans
NOTES
to adhere to the protocol if and when it is finalised and to monitor whether its counterparties will
also adhere. If this plan changes or there are counterparties who will not adhere to the protocol,
the Group will negotiate with them bilaterally about including new fallback clauses.] a
Hedge accounting
IFRS 7.24H(a) The Group has evaluated the extent to which its cash flow hedging relationships are subject
to uncertainty driven by IBOR reform as at 31 December 2020. The Group’s hedged items and
hedging instruments continue to be indexed to Euribor or sterling LIBOR. These benchmark rates
are quoted each day and the IBOR cash flows are exchanged with counterparties as usual.
The calculation methodology of Euribor changed during 2019. In July 2019, the Belgian Financial
Services and Markets Authority granted authorisation with respect to Euribor under the European
Union Benchmarks Regulation. This allows market participants to continue to use Euribor for
both existing and new contracts and the Group expects that Euribor will continue to exist as a

a. This description is based on public information available at 23 September 2020 about the status of ISDA’s benchmark
reform activities at that date and assumes that no further progress will have been made. ISDA has indicated that
it expects to publish the IBOR fallback supplement and IBOR fallback protocol by the end of 2020. Entities need to
monitor the developments and update this note accordingly.

Hedge accounting (continued)
However, the Group’s sterling LIBOR cash flow hedging relationships extend beyond the
anticipated cessation date for sterling LIBOR. The Group expects that sterling LIBOR will be
discontinued after the end of 2021. The preferred alternative reference rate is the Sterling
Australian content
Overnight Index Average (SONIA). However, there is uncertainty about when and how
replacement may occur with respect to the relevant hedged items and hedging instruments. Such
uncertainty may impact the hedging relationship. The Group applies the amendments to IFRS 9
issued in September 2019 to those hedging relationships directly affected by IBOR reform.
IFRS 7.24H(d) Hedging relationships impacted by IBOR reform may experience ineffectiveness attributable to
market participants’ expectations of when the shift from the existing IBOR benchmark rate to
an alternative benchmark interest rate will occur. This transition may occur at different times for
the hedged item and hedging instrument, which may lead to hedge ineffectiveness. The Group
has measured its hedging instruments indexed to sterling LIBOR using available quoted market
rates for LIBOR-based instruments of the same tenor and similar maturity and has measured the
cumulative change in the present value of hedged cash flows attributable to changes in sterling
LIBOR on a similar basis.
Primary statements
IFRS 7.24H(b), (e) The Group’s exposure to sterling LIBOR designated in hedging relationships is €1,000 thousand
nominal amount at 31 December 2020 (see Note 28(A)), representing both the nominal amount
of the hedging interest rate swap and the principal amount of the hedged sterling-denominated
secured bank loan liability maturing in 2022.
Currency riska
IFRS 7.21C, 22A(a) 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 euro and Swiss francs (CHF). The currencies in which these
transactions are primarily denominated are euro, US dollars, sterling and Swiss francs.
IFRS 7.21A, The Group’s risk management policy is to hedge 75 to 85% of its estimated foreign currency
7.22A(b)–(c), 22C
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 NOTES
flow hedges.b
IFRS 7.24C(b)(vi) a. The Group did not designate any net positions in a hedging relationship. For an entity that did, the required
disclosures would include the hedging gains or losses recognised in a separate line item in the statement of profit
or loss and OCI.
IFRS 7.24B(a), b. The Group has not designated any fair value hedging relationships. For an entity that has a fair value hedge, the
24C(a) required disclosures would include:
– the carrying amount of the hedged item recognised in the statement of financial position (presenting assets
separately from liabilities);
– the accumulated amount of fair value hedge adjustments on the hedged item included in the carrying amount of
the hedged item recognised in the statement of financial position (presenting assets separately from liabilities);
– the line item in the statement of financial position that includes the hedged item;
Appendices
– the change in value of the hedged item used as the basis for recognising hedge ineffectiveness for the period;
– the accumulated amount of fair value hedge adjustments remaining in the statement of financial position for any
hedged items that have ceased to be adjusted for hedging gains and losses;
– hedge ineffectiveness: i.e. the difference between the hedging gains or losses of the hedging instrument and the
hedged item recognised in profit or loss; and
– the line item in the statement of profit or loss and OCI that includes the recognised hedge ineffectiveness.

for the critical terms of the forward exchange contracts to align with the hedged item.
IFRS 7.22B(b) 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.
IFRS 7.23D In these hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are:a
– 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.

IFRS 7.34(a) b. Disclosure of estimated forecast sales and purchases does not form part of the minimum disclosure requirements
in IFRS 7, because estimated forecast sales and purchases are not financial instruments. However, the Group has
disclosed this information because it is relevant to an understanding of its exposure to currency risk. In addition,
IFRS 7 requires quantitative data about risk exposures to be based on information provided internally to key
management personnel and the Group provides forecast sales and purchase information to management as part
of its management of currency risk.

IFRS 7.23C, 24D a. The Group does not frequently reset hedging relationships because both the hedging instrument and the hedged
item frequently change (i.e. the entity does not use a dynamic process in which neither the exposure nor the
hedging instruments used to manage that exposure remain the same for a long period). If it did, then it would be
exempt from providing the disclosures required by paragraphs 23A and 23B of IFRS 7, but would instead provide
information about the ultimate risk management strategy, how it reflects its risk management strategy in its hedge
accounting and designations, and how frequently hedging relationships are discontinued and restarted. If the

does not reflect the volumes during the year), then the entity would disclose that fact and the reason it believes the
volumes are unrepresentative.

Net investment hedges
IFRS 7.22A A foreign currency exposure arises from the Group’s net investment in its Swiss subsidiary that
has a Swiss franc functional currency. The risk arises from the fluctuation in spot exchange rates
between the Swiss franc and the euro, which causes the amount of the net investment to vary.
The hedged risk in the net investment hedge is the risk of a weakening Swiss franc against the
euro that will result in a reduction in the carrying amount of the Group’s net investment in the
Swiss subsidiary.
IFRS 7.22B(a) Part of the Group’s net investment in its Swiss subsidiary is hedged by a Swiss franc-denominated
secured bank loan (carrying amount: €1,240 thousand (2019: €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 EUR/CHF spot rate.
NOTES
IFRS 7.22B(b) To assess hedge effectiveness, the Group determines the economic relationship between the
hedging instrument and the hedged item by comparing changes in the carrying amount of the
debt that is attributable to a change in the spot rate with changes in the investment in the foreign
operation due to movements in the spot rate (the offset method). The Group’s policy is to hedge
the net investment only to the extent of the debt principal.

of their voting power, management has determined that the Group controls these two entities.
The Group controls Maple-leaf Inc by virtue of an agreement with its other shareholders; the
Group has control over Silver Fir S.A., on a de facto power basis, because the remaining voting
rights in the investee are widely dispersed and there is no indication that all other shareholders
exercise their votes collectively.
B. Sloan Bio-Research Co and MayCo
IFRS 12.7(a), 9(b), The Group does not hold any ownership interests in two structured entities, Sloan Bio-Research

established, the Group receives substantially all of the returns related to their operations and net
assets (these entities perform research activities exclusively for the Group) and has the current
ability to direct these entities’ activities that most significantly affect these returns. Because the
owners’ interests in these entities are presented as liabilities of the Group, there are no NCI for

Included in the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition of Papyrus
are inputs (a head office, several factories, patented technology, inventories and customer
relationships), production processes and an organised workforce. The Group has determined that
together the acquired inputs and processes significantly contribute to the ability to create revenue.
The Group has concluded that the acquired set is a business.a
Australian content
IFRS 3.B64(d) 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.
IFRS 3.B64(q) For the nine months ended 31 December 2020, Papyrus contributed revenue of
€20,409 thousand and profit of €425 thousand to the Group’s results. If the acquisition had
occurred on 1 January 2020, management estimates that consolidated revenue would have
been €107,091 thousand, and consolidated profit for the year would have been €8,128 thousand.
In determining these amounts, management has assumed that the fair value adjustments,
determined provisionally, that arose on the date of acquisition would have been the same if the
acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2020.

A. Consideration transferred (continued)
ii. Replacement share-based payment awards (continued)
The value of the replacement awards is €520 thousand, after taking into account an estimated
forfeiture rate of 9%. The consideration for the business combination includes €120 thousand
transferred to employees of Papyrus when the acquiree’s awards were substituted by the
replacement awards, which relates to past service. The balance of €400 thousand will be
recognised as post-acquisition compensation cost. For further details on the replacement awards,
see Note 12(A)(ii).
Australian content
iii. Contingent consideration
IFRS 3.B64(g), B67(b) The Group has agreed to pay the selling shareholders in three years’ time additional consideration
of €600 thousand if the acquiree’s cumulative EBITDA over the next three years exceeds
€10,000 thousand. The Group has included €250 thousand as contingent consideration related
to the additional consideration, which represents its fair value at the date of acquisition. At
31 December 2020, the contingent consideration had increased to €270 thousand (see Note 29).
iv. Settlement of pre-existing relationship
IFRS 3.B64(l) The Group and Papyrus were parties to a long-term supply contract under which Papyrus supplied
the Group with timber products at a fixed price. Under the contract, the Group could terminate the
agreement early by paying Papyrus €326 thousand. This pre-existing relationship was effectively
terminated when the Group acquired Papyrus.
The Group has attributed €326 thousand of the consideration transferred to the extinguishment of
Primary statements
the supply contract, and has included the amount in ‘other expenses’ (see Note 9(B)). This amount
is the lower of the termination amount and the value of the off-market element of the contract. The
fair value of the contract at the date of acquisition was €600 thousand, of which €400 thousand
related to the unfavourable aspect of the contract to the Group relative to market prices.
B. Acquisition-related costs
IFRS 3.B64(l)–(m) The Group incurred acquisition-related costs of €50 thousand on legal fees and due diligence
costs. These costs have been included in ‘administrative expenses’.

Fair values measured on a provisional basis
IFRS 3.B67(a), The following amounts have been measured on a provisional basis.
Primary statements
IAS 1.125
– The fair value of Papyrus’s intangible assets (patented technology and customer relationships)
has been measured provisionally, pending completion of an independent valuation.
IFRS 3.B64(j), B67(c), – Papyrus is the defendant in legal proceedings brought by a customer that alleges that Papyrus
IAS 37.86
supplied defective goods. Management’s assessment, based on its interpretation of the
underlying sales contract and independent legal advice, is that the basis for the customer’s
claim has little merit and it is not probable that an outflow will be required to settle the claim.
Management’s assessment of the fair value of this contingent liability, taking into account the
range of possible outcomes of the judicial process, is €20 thousand (see Note 40).
– Papyrus’s operations are subject to specific environmental regulations. The Group has
conducted a preliminary assessment of site restoration provisions arising from these
regulations and has recognised a provisional amount. The Group will continue to review these
matters during the measurement period.
If new information obtained within one year of the date of acquisition about facts and
circumstances that existed at the date of acquisition identifies adjustments to the above amounts,
NOTES
or any additional provisions that existed at the date of acquisition, then the accounting for the
acquisition will be revised.
Appendices
IFRS 13.BC184 a. The Group has disclosed information about the fair value measurement of assets acquired in a business

Goodwill 22(A) 541
IFRS 3.B64(p)(ii) The remeasurement to fair value of the Group’s existing 25% interest in Papyrus resulted in a
gain of €250 thousand (€649 thousand less the €419 thousand carrying amount of the equity-
accounted investee 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 10).
IFRS 3.B64(e), B64(k) 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. None of the goodwill recognised is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

37. Loan covenant waiver
IFRS 7.18–19 As explained in Note 28(B), 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 third quarter of 2020. The Group obtained a waiver of the breach of covenant in October
2020 for a period of 18 months. Subsequent to 31 December 2020, 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.

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.
IAS 1.122 The warehouse and factory leases were entered into many years ago as combined leases of land

patents and trademarks in 2020 for €1,465 thousand (2019: nil) and €455 thousand (2019: nil)
respectively.
The Group is committed to incurring other capital expenditure of €150 thousand (2019:
€45 thousand). The Group’s joint venture is committed to incurring capital expenditure
of €23 thousand (2019: €11 thousand), of which the Group’s share is €9 thousand (2019:
€4 thousand). These commitments are expected to be settled in 2021.
IAS 40.75(h) The Group has entered into contracts for the management and maintenance of certain commercial
Australian content
properties that are leased to third parties. These contracts will give rise to annual expense of
€15 thousand for the next five years.
40. Contingencies
IAS 1.125, 37.86 A subsidiary is defending an action brought by an environmental agency in Europe. 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.
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 34(C)).

programme (see Note 12(A)(iii)) if they meet the criteria of investing a percentage of each month’s
salary for a period of 36 months. Consequently, the Group has deducted €78 thousand from the
salaries of the employees concerned (including an amount of €37 thousand that relates to key
management personnel), to satisfy the criteria. The amounts withheld are included in ‘trade and
other payables’ (see Note 29).
IAS 24.17(d) As a result of the termination of the employment of one of the Group’s executives in France, the
executive received an enhanced retirement entitlement. Accordingly, the Group has recognised an
expense of €25 thousand during the year (2019: nil).
ii. Key management personnel transactions
Directors of the Company control 12% of the voting shares of the Company. A relative of a director
of a subsidiary has a 10% share in the Group’s joint venture (see Note 24(A)).
A number of key management personnel, or their related parties, hold positions in other
companies that result in them having control or significant influence over these companies.

Introduction
42. Subsequent events
IAS 10.21–22 A. Restructuring
At the end of January 2021, 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 2021, 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 2021 and 2022.
Australian content
Subsequent to 31 December 2020, one of the Group’s major trade customers went into
liquidation following a natural disaster in February 2021 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 January 2021, one of the premises of Oy Kossu AG, 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 28(B), the Group breached a financial loan covenant associated with a
bank loan in the third quarter of 2020. The Group obtained a waiver for the breach of covenant in
October 2020 for a period of 18 months. Subsequent to 31 December 2020, the bank revised the
Primary statements
loan covenant ratio and the waiver was lifted (see Note 37).
On 23 March 2021, an increase in the Netherlands corporate tax rate from 25 to 30% was
substantively enacted, effective from 1 January 2022. This increase does not affect the amounts
of current or deferred income taxes recognised at 31 December 2020. However, this change will
increase the Group’s future current tax charge accordingly. If the new tax rate were applied to
calculate taxable temporary differences and tax losses recognised as at 31 December 2020 the
effect would be that net deferred tax assets would increase by €27 thousand (see Note 14).
On 22 July 2020, the Group announced its intention to acquire all of the shares of ABC Company
for €6,500 thousand. On 4 January 2021, 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 April 2021.

Accounting policies
Introduction
45. Significant accounting policies (continued)
A. Basis of consolidation
i. Business combinations
[IFRS 3.3–4, 32, 34, The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when the acquired
53, B5–B12]
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 acquired 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 assessment of
Australian content
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 (R)(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 (P)).
[IFRS 3.B52] The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing
relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised in profit or loss.
[IFRS 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,
Primary statements
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.
[IFRS 3.30, B57–B61] If share-based payment awards (replacement awards) are required to be exchanged for awards
held by the acquiree’s employees (acquiree’s awards), then all or a portion of the amount of
the acquirer’s replacement awards is included in measuring the consideration transferred in
the business combination. This determination is based on the market-based measure of the
replacement awards compared with the market-based measure of the acquiree’s awards and the
extent to which the replacement awards relate to pre-combination service.
ii. Subsidiaries
[IFRS 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. NOTES
IFRS 3.19 a. An entity has a choice on a combination-by-combination basis to measure any NCI in the acquiree at either the
proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets or fair value. The Group has elected the former approach.

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.
206 | Example Public Company Limited
[IAS 28.38–39] Interests in associates and the joint venture 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 equity-
accounted investees, until the date on which significant influence or joint control ceases.
vi. Transactions eliminated on consolidation
[IFRS 10.B86(c), Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses (except for
IAS 28.28]
foreign currency transaction gains or losses) arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated.
Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted investees are eliminated against
the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee.b Unrealised losses are
eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence
of impairment.
Primary statements
B. Foreign currency
i. Foreign currency transactions
[IAS 21.21] Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies of Group
companies at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
[IAS 21.23] 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.c
[IFRS 9.B5.7.3] However, foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the following items are
recognised in OCI:
– an investment in equity securities designated as at FVOCI (except on impairment, in which case
NOTES
foreign currency differences that have been recognised in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss);
– a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation to the
extent that the hedge is effective (see (O)(v)); and
– qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective.
Insights a. Although it is not illustrated, an entity’s equity-accounted investee may have accounting policies for items that do
5.10.140.150 not apply to the investor. In our view, this information should be included in the accounting policy note for equity-
accounted investees if it is necessary for an understanding of equity-accounted earnings or the carrying amount of
equity-accounted investees.
Insights 3.5.430.30 b. In the absence of specific guidance in IFRS Standards, the Group has elected to eliminate unrealised gains and
losses resulting from transactions with equity-accounted investees against the investment in the investees.
Appendices
Alternatively, the elimination may be presented as a reduction in the underlying asset – e.g. inventory.
Insights 2.7.160.20 c. In our experience, the most common practice is for all such exchange differences related to monetary items to be
included as part of finance costs. However, it is also acceptable to allocate the exchange differences to the various
line items affected. If exchange differences are allocated in this way, then this should be done consistently from
period to period having regard to the guidance in IAS 1 on offsetting, and in our view it would be necessary to
disclose the entity's allocation policy, if it is significant, in the financial statements.

Accounting policies
Introduction
45. Significant accounting policies (continued)
B. Foreign currency (continued)
ii. Foreign operations
[IAS 21.39] The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising
on acquisition, are translated into euro at the exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and
expenses of foreign operations are translated into euro at the exchange rates at the dates of
the transactions.
[IFRS 10.B94, Foreign currency differences are recognised in OCI and accumulated in the translation reserve,
IAS 21.41]
except to the extent that the translation difference is allocated to NCI.
Australian content
[IAS 21.48–48D] When a foreign operation is disposed of in its entirety or partially such that control, significant
influence or joint control 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
or joint venture while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the
cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.
C. Discontinued operation
[IFRS 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;
Primary statements
– 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.
IFRS 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.
IAS 1.117(b), 119 a. The Group presents significant accounting policies related to revenue from contracts with customers in the
‘revenue’ note, rather than in a separate note with other significant accounting policies. Other approaches to
presenting accounting policies may be acceptable.

208 | Example Public Company Limited
share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences
between expected and actual outcomes.
[IFRS 2.30, 32] The fair value of the amount payable to employees in respect of 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
[IAS 19.28, 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.
Primary statements
defined benefit liability (asset), taking into account any changes in the net defined benefit liability
(asset) during the period as a result of contributions and benefit payments. Net interest expense
and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognised in profit or loss.
[IAS 19.103, 109–110] When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit
that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognised immediately in profit or
loss. The Group recognises gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the
settlement occurs.
v. Other long-term employee benefits
[IAS 19.155–156] 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.

Introduction
45. Significant accounting policies (continued)
F. Government grantsa
IAS 20.39(a), [IAS 20.7, The Group recognises an unconditional government grant related to a biological asset in profit or loss
26, 41.34–35]
as other income when the grant becomes receivable. Other government grants related to assets
are initially recognised 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.
[IAS 20.12, 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
Australian content
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.
Primary statements
– 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
or FVOCI;
– 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 interest rate risk and foreign currency risk for borrowings (see Note 32(C)(iv)).
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. NOTES
[IFRS 9.5.4.1–5.4.2, 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.
Appendices
Insights 4.3.140.10 a. An entity chooses a presentation format, to be applied consistently, either to offset a grant related to income against
the related expenditure (net presentation) or to present it separately or under a general heading such as ‘other
income’ (gross presentation).
Insights 7.10.70.20 b. There is no guidance in IFRS 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.

210 | Example Public Company Limited
[IAS 12.2, 12, 46, Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the
IFRIC 23.11]
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.
[IAS 12.71] Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.
ii. Deferred tax
[IAS 12.15, 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:
Primary statements
– 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, associates and joint arrangements
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.
[IAS 12.56] 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;
NOTES
such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.
[IAS 12.37] 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.
[IAS 12.47, IFRIC 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.
Appendices
Insights 3.13.45.10 a. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are not explicitly included in the scope of IAS 12. The IFRS
Interpretations Committee discussed the accounting for interest and penalties related to income taxes and noted
that an entity first considers whether interest or a penalty itself is an income tax. If so, then it applies IAS 12. If the
entity does not apply IAS 12, then it applies IAS 37 to that amount. The Committee also noted that this is not an
accounting policy choice – i.e. an entity needs to apply judgement based on the specific facts and circumstances.

Introduction
45. Significant accounting policies (continued)
H. Income tax (continued)
ii. Deferred tax (continued)
[IAS 12.51, 51C] 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. For this purpose, 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.
[IAS 12.74] Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.
Australian content
I. Biological assets
[IAS 41.12–13] Biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell, with any change therein recognised
in profit or loss.
J. Inventories
[IAS 2.9, 25], Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is
IAS 2.36(a)
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.
[IAS 2.20] The cost of standing timber transferred from biological assets is its fair value less costs to sell at
the date of harvest.
K. Property, plant and equipment
Primary statements
i. Recognition and measurement
[IFRS 1.D5, IAS 16.30], Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalised
IAS 16.73(a)
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.a
[IAS 16.45] 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.
[IAS 16.41, 71] Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit
or loss.
ii. Subsequent expenditure
[IAS 16.13] Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits
associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group.
iii. Depreciation NOTES
[IAS 16.53, 58, 60], Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their
IAS 16.73(b)
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.
IAS 16.73(c) 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.
[IAS 16.51] Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and
adjusted if appropriate.
Appendices
a. The Group was previously a first-time adopter of IFRS Standards. It has included the accounting policy for the
determination of the cost of property, plant and equipment at the date of transition to IFRS Standards because it
regards this information as relevant to an understanding of its financial statements.

Accounting policies
Introduction
45. Significant accounting policies (continued)
M. Investment property (continued)
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.
N. Assets held for sale
[IFRS 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.
Australian content
[IFRS 5.15–15A, Such assets, or disposal groups, are generally measured at the lower of their carrying amount
18–23]
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, deferred tax assets, employee benefit assets, investment
property or biological 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.
[IFRS 5.25, IAS 28.20] Once classified as held-for-sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no longer
amortised or depreciated, and any equity-accounted investee is no longer equity accounted.
Primary statements
[IFRS 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.
[IFRS 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 or minus, 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
[IFRS 9.4.1.1] On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortised cost; FVOCI – debt
investment; FVOCI – equity investment; or FVTPL.
[IFRS 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 NOTES
assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the
business model.

[IFRS 9.4.1.5] All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above
are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets (see Note 32(A)). On initial
recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the
requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates
or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.
Financial assets – Business model assessment
[IFRS 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 levela because this best reflects the way the business is managed and
information is provided to management. The information considered includes:
[IFRS 9.B4.1.2B– – the stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice.
B4.1.2C, B4.1.4A,
B4.1.5]
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 related liabilities or expected cash outflows or realising cash flows through the
sale of the assets;
NOTES
– 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.
Appendices
IFRS 9.B4.1.1– a. The objective of the entity’s business model is not based on management’s intentions with respect to an individual

Financial assets – Assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of
principal and interest
[IFRS 9.4.1.3, For the purposes of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on
B4.1.7A–B4.1.7B,
B4.1.9A–B4.1.9E]
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:
Primary statements
– 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).
[IFRS 9.B4.1.11(b), A prepayment feature is consistent with the solely payments of principal and interest criterion
B4.1.12]
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.
NOTES
Appendices
Insights 7.4.110.15 a IFRS 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.

See Note 45(O)(v) for financial liabilities designated as hedging instruments.
iii. Derecognition
Financial assets
[IFRS 9.3.2.3–3.2.6] 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 either:
- substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred; or
NOTES
- 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.
[IFRS 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
[IFRS 9.3.3.1–3.3.2] 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.

v. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
Australian content
[IFRS 9.4.3.3] The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate
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.
[IFRS 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 interest rates and certain derivatives and non-derivative financial liabilities as
hedges of foreign exchange risk on a net investment in a foreign operation.
[IFRS 9.6.4.1(a), At inception of designated hedging relationships, the Group documents the risk management
6.4.1(c)]
objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The Group also documents the economic relationship
Primary statements
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.
Hedges directly affected by interest rate benchmark reform
IFRS 9.6.8.6 For the purpose of evaluating whether there is an economic relationship between the hedged
item(s) and the hedging instrument(s), the Group assumes that the benchmark interest rate is
not altered as a result of interest rate benchmark reform.
IFRS 9.6.8.4–6.8.5 For a cash flow hedge of a forecast transaction, the Group assumes that the benchmark interest
rate will not be altered as a result of interest rate benchmark reform for the purpose of assessing
whether the forecast transaction is highly probable and presents an exposure to variations in cash
flows that could ultimately affect profit or loss. In determining whether a previously designated
forecast transaction in a discontinued cash flow hedge is still expected to occur, the Group assumes
that the interest rate benchmark cash flows designated as a hedge will not be altered as a result of
interest rate benchmark reform.
NOTES
IFRS 9.6.8.9–6.8.11 The Group will cease to apply the specific policy for assessing the economic relationship between
the hedged item and the hedging instrument (i) to a hedged item or hedging instrument when the
uncertainty arising from interest rate benchmark reform is no longer present with respect to the
timing and the amount of the interest rate benchmark-based cash flows of the respective item or
instrument or (ii) when the hedging relationship is discontinued. For its highly probable assessment
of the hedged item, the Group will no longer apply the specific policy when the uncertainty
arising from interest rate benchmark reform about the timing and the amount of the interest rate
benchmark-based future cash flows of the hedged item is no longer present, or when the hedging
relationship is discontinued.

The Group designates only the change in fair value of the spot element of forward exchange
contracts as the hedging instrument in cash flow hedging relationships. The change in fair value
of the forward element of forward exchange contracts (forward points) is separately accounted
for as a cost of hedging and recognised in a costs of hedging 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 and the cost of 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 and
the cost of 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.
Primary statements
[IFRS 9.6.5.6–6.5.7, If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or the hedging instrument is

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 and the cost of hedging reserve are immediately reclassified
to profit or loss.
of the changes in the fair value of the derivative or foreign exchange gains and losses on the

partially reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment on disposal or partial disposal
of the foreign operation, respectively.

i. Ordinary shares
[IAS 32.35–35A] 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 IAS 12 (see 45(H)).
ii. Preference shares
[IAS 32.AG25–AG26] 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.
iii. Repurchase and reissue of ordinary shares (treasury shares)
[IAS 32.33] When shares recognised as equity are repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, which
includes directly attributable costs, is recognised as a deduction from equity. Repurchased shares
are classified as treasury shares and are presented in the treasury share reserve. When treasury
shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognised as an increase in
equity and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is presented within share premium.
Primary statements
Q. Compound financial instruments
[IAS 32.28–32] Compound financial instruments issued by the Group comprise convertible notes denominated
in euro 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.
[IAS 32.38, AG31, The liability component of compound financial instruments is initially recognised at the fair value of
IFRS 9.5.1.1]
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.
[IFRS 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.
[IAS 32.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. NOTES

The Group also recognises loss allowances for ECLs on lease receivables, which are disclosed as
part of trade and other receivables.
[IFRS 9.5.5.3, 5.5.5, The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, except for the
5.5.11, 5.5.15–5.5.16]
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
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since
Primary statements
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.
IFRS 7.35F(b), B8A The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when:
– the debtor is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the
Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held); or
– the financial asset is more than 90 days past due.
IFRS 7.35F(a)(i), The Group considers a debt security to have low credit risk when its credit risk rating is equivalent
[IFRS 9.5.5.10,
B5.5.22–B5.5.24, A]
to the globally understood definition of ‘investment grade’. The Group considers this to be Baa3 or
higher per [Rating Agency X] or BBB- or higher per [Rating Agency Y].
NOTES
Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a
financial instrument.
12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the
12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less
than 12 months).
[IFRS 9.5.5.19, The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over
B5.5.38]
which the Group is exposed to credit risk.
[IFRS 9.5.5.17, A, Measurement of ECLs
B5.5.28–B5.5.30,
B5.5.33] 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).
Appendices
ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
IFRS 9.5.15 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.

R. Impairment (continued)
i. Non-derivative financial assets (continued)
IFRS 7.35F(d), Credit-impaired financial assets
35G(a)(iii), [IFRS 9.A]
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost
and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one
or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial
asset have occurred.
Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:
Australian content
– significant financial difficulty of the debtor;
– a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 90 days past due;
– the restructuring of a loan or advance by the Group on terms that the Group would not consider
otherwise;
– it is probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; or
– the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties.
[IFRS 9.5.5.1–5.5.2] 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.
Primary statements
For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charged to profit or loss and is recognised in OCI.
Write-off
IFRS 7.35F(e), The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Group has no reasonable
[IFRS 9.5.4.4]
expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For individual
customers, the Group has a policy of writing off the gross carrying amount when the financial asset
is 180 days past due based on historical experience of recoveries of similar assets. For corporate
customers, the Group individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount
of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group expects no
significant recovery from the amount written off. However, financial assets that are written off could
still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery
of amounts due.
ii. Non-financial assets
[IAS 36.9–10, 59] At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other
than biological assets, investment property, inventories, contract assets and deferred tax assets) NOTES
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.
[IAS 36.22, 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.
[IAS 36.6, 30] The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less
costs of disposal. 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.
[IAS 36.59] An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable
Appendices
amount.
[IAS 36.104] 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.

sold, based on historical warranty data and a weighting of possible outcomes against
their associated probabilities.
[IAS 37.72] Restructuring 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.
[IAS 37.21] Site restoration 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.

T. Leases
[IFRS 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
[IFRS 16.15, 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.

Accounting policies
Introduction
45. Significant accounting policies (continued)
T. Leases (continued)
i. As a lessee (continued)
[IFRS 16.22–24] 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.
[IFRS 16.29–33] The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the
Australian content
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.
[IFRS 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.
IAS 1.112(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
Primary statements
type of the asset leased.
[IFRS 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 commencement 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 an 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.
[IFRS 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 NOTES
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.
[IFRS 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.
[IFRS 16.47–48] The Group presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property in
‘property, plant and equipment’ and lease liabilities in ‘loans and borrowings’ in the statement of
financial position.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
IFRS 16.60, The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases of
[IFRS 16.5–6, 8,
Appendices
B3–B8, BC100]
low-value assets and short-term leases, including IT equipment. The Group recognises the lease
payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

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.
[IFRS 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.
[IFRS 16.17] If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, then the Group applies IFRS 15 to
allocate the consideration in the contract.
Primary statements
[IFRS 16.77] The Group applies the derecognition and impairment requirements in IFRS 9 to the net investment
in the lease (see Note 45(R)(i)). The Group further regularly reviews estimated unguaranteed
residual values used in calculating the gross investment in the lease.
[IFRS 16.81] The Group recognises lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight-
line basis over the lease term as part of ‘other revenue’.
U. Operating profit
Operating profit is the result generated from the continuing principal revenue-producing activities
of the Group as well as other income and expenses related to operating activities. Operating profit
excludes net finance costs, share of profit of equity-accounted investees and income taxes.
V. Fair value measurement
[IFRS 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
NOTES
[IFRS 13.70–71] 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.

Accounting policies
Introduction
45. Significant accounting policies (continued)
V. Fair value measurement (continued)
IFRS 7.28(a) The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is normally the
transaction price – i.e. the fair value of the consideration given or received. If the Group determines
that the fair value on initial recognition differs from the transaction price and the fair value is
evidenced neither by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability nor based
on a valuation technique for which any unobservable inputs are judged to be insignificant in relation
to the measurement, then the financial instrument is initially measured at fair value, adjusted
to defer the difference between the fair value on initial recognition and the transaction price.
Subsequently, that difference is recognised in profit or loss on an appropriate basis over the life of
Australian content
the instrument but no later than when the valuation is wholly supported by observable market data
or the transaction is closed out.

or other components of equity, as appropriate. The comparatives are not restated. The Group
has determined that all contracts existing at 31 December 2020 will be completed before the
amendments become effective.
B. Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2 (Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39,
IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16)
The amendments address issues that might affect financial reporting as a result of the reform of
an interest rate benchmark, including the effects of changes to contractual cash flows or hedging
relationships arising from the replacement of an interest rate benchmark with an alternative
benchmark rate. The amendments provide practical relief from certain requirements in IFRS 9,
IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 relating to:
– changes in the basis for determining contractual cash flows of financial assets, financial
liabilities and lease liabilities; and
Primary statements
– hedge accounting.
i. Change in basis for determining cash flows
The amendments will require an entity to account for a change in the basis for determining the
contractual cash flows of a financial asset or financial liability that is required by interest rate
benchmark reform by updating the effective interest rate of the financial asset or financial liability.
At 31 December 2020, the Group has €1,500 thousand sterling LIBOR secured bank loans that will
be subject to IBOR reform. The Group expects that the interest rate benchmark for these loans will
be changed to SONIA in 2021 and that no significant modification gain or loss will arise as a result
of applying the amendments to these changes.
ii. Hedge accounting
The amendments provide exceptions to the hedge accounting requirements in the following
areas.
NOTES
– Allow amendment of the designation of a hedging relationship to reflect changes that are
required by the reform.
– When a hedged item in a cash flow hedge is amended to reflect the changes that are required
by the reform, the amount accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve will be deemed to be
based on the alternative benchmark rate on which the hedged future cash flows are determined.
– When a group of items is designated as a hedged item and an item in the group is amended
to reflect the changes that are required by the reform, the hedged items are allocated to sub-
groups based on the benchmark rates being hedged.
– If an entity reasonably expects that an alternative benchmark rate will be separately identifiable
within a period of 24 months, it is not prohibited from designating the rate as a non-contractually
specified risk component if it is not separately identifiable at the designation date.

B. Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2 (Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39,
IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16) (continued)
ii. Hedge accounting (continued)
At 31 December 2020, the Group has cash flow hedges of sterling LIBOR risk. The Group expects
that indexation of the hedged items and hedging instruments to sterling LIBOR will be replaced
with SONIA in 2021 (see Note 32(C)(iv)). Whenever the replacement occurs, the Group expects
to apply the amendments related to hedge accounting. However, there is uncertainty about when
and how replacement may occur. When the change occurs to the hedged item or the hedging
Australian content
instrument, the Group will remeasure the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item or
the fair value of the interest rate swap, respectively, based on SONIA. Hedging relationships may
experience hedge ineffectiveness if there is a timing or other mismatch between the transition
of the hedged item and that of the hedging instrument to SONIA. The Group does not expect that
amounts accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve will be immediately reclassified to profit or
loss because of IBOR transition.
iii. Disclosure
The amendments will require the Group to disclose additional information about the
entity’s exposure to risks arising from interest rate benchmark reform and related risk
management activities.

X. Going concern basis of accountinga, b
IAS 1.25–26, 122 The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
assumes that the Group will be able to discharge its liabilities including the mandatory repayment
terms of the banking facilities as disclosed in Note 31(C).
The Group has recognised a net profit after tax of €7,937 thousand for the year ended 31 December
2020 and, as at that date, current assets exceed current liabilities by €22,046 thousand. However, as
described in Note X, significant one-off environmental costs are expected in 2021, reflecting various
regulatory developments in a number of European countries.
In addition to the above, fully drawn banking facilities of €7,012 thousand are subject to review by
Primary statements
30 June 2021. The lenders are expected to undertake a review, which will include (but is not limited
to) an assessment of:
Management believes that the repayment of the facilities will be met out of operating cash
flows and the immediate and significant mitigating actions taken by management to reduce
costs and optimise the Group’s cash flow and liquidity. Among these are the following mitigating
actions: reducing capital and investment expenditure through postponing or pausing projects and
change activity; deferring or cancelling discretionary spend; freezing non-essential recruitment;
and reducing marketing spend. Management anticipates that any additional cash flow needs
will be met out of asset sales. Management is confident that the asset sales will be finalised
before 30 June 2021 as disclosed in Note 20 and that the proceeds will be sufficient to meet any
additional cash flow needs.
Notes
Based on these factors, management has a reasonable expectation that the Group has and will
have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

IAS 24.26 Example 5 – Collectively, but not individually, significant transactions
Griffin Limited operates in an economic regime dominated by entities directly or indirectly
controlled by the Government of [Country X] through its government authorities, agencies,
affiliations and other organisations, collectively referred to as government-related entities. Griffin
Limited has transactions with other government-related entities, including but not limited to sales
and purchases of goods and ancillary materials, rendering and receiving services, lease of assets,
and use of public utilities.
Australian content
These transactions are conducted in the ordinary course of Griffin Limited’s business on terms
comparable to those with other entities that are not government-related. Griffin Limited has
established procurement policies, a pricing strategy and an approval process for purchases
and sales of products and services, which are independent of whether the counterparties are
government-related entities.
For the year ended 31 December 2020, management estimates that the aggregate amount of Griffin
Limited’s significant transactions with other government-related entities is at least 50% of its sales
of recycled paper products and between 30 and 40% of its purchase of materials.

Introduction
Extracts of notes to the consolidated financial statements
X. Service concession arrangementa, b
SIC-29.6 On 1 July 2020, the Group entered into a service concession agreement with a local township
(the grantor) to construct a toll road near one of the Group’s forestry operations. The construction
of the toll road started in July 2020 and it was completed and available for use on 30 September
2020. Under the terms of the agreement, the Group will operate and make the toll road available
to the public for a period of five years, starting from 1 October 2020. The Group will be responsible
for any maintenance services required during the concession period. The Group does not expect
major repairs to be necessary during the concession period.
Australian content
SIC-29.6(c)(iv) The grantor will provide the Group a guaranteed minimum annual payment for each year that
the toll road is in operation. Additionally, the Group has received the right to charge users a fee
for using the toll road, which the Group will collect and retain; however, this fee is capped to a
maximum amount as stated in the service concession agreement. The usage fees collected
and earned by the Group are over and above the guaranteed minimum annual payment to
be received from the grantor. At the end of the concession period, the toll road will become
the property of the grantor and the Group will have no further involvement in its operation or
maintenance requirements.
SIC-29.6(c)(v) The service concession agreement does not contain a renewal option. The rights of the grantor
to terminate the agreement include poor performance by the Group and in the event of a material
breach in the terms of the agreement. The rights of the Group to terminate the agreement include
failure of the grantor to make payment under the agreement, a material breach in the terms of
Primary statements
the agreement and any changes in law that would render it impossible for the Group to fulfil its
requirements under the agreement.
SIC-29.6(e), 6A For the year ended 31 December 2020, the Group has recognised revenue of €350 thousand,
consisting of €320 thousand on construction and €30 thousand on operation of the toll road,
which is the amount of tolls collected. The Group has recognised profit of €20 thousand,
consisting of a profit of €25 thousand on construction and a loss of €5 thousand on operation of
the toll road. The revenue recognised in relation to construction in 2020 represents the fair value
of the construction services provided in constructing the toll road. The Group has recognised a
service concession receivable, initially measured at the fair value of the construction services,
of €260 thousand representing the present value of the guaranteed annual minimum payments
to be received from the grantor, discounted at a rate of 5%, of which €11 thousand represents
accrued interest.
The Group has recognised an intangible asset received as consideration for providing construction
or upgrade services in a service concession arrangement of €95 thousand, of which €5 thousand
has been amortised in 2020. The intangible asset represents the right to charge users a fee for use Notes
of the toll road.c
APPENDICES
a. This appendix illustrates one possible format for the disclosure of a service concession arrangement to help in
the preparation of consolidated financial statements. Other presentation formats are possible.
SIC-29.7 b. Disclosures about the nature and extent of service concession arrangements are provided individually for each
service concession arrangement or in aggregate for each class of service concession arrangement.
c. The disclosure requirements in IFRS 13 do not apply to assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value

D. Revenue
x. Service concession arrangements
[IFRIC 12.13] Revenue related to construction or upgrade services under a service concession arrangement
is recognised over time, consistent with the Group’s accounting policy on recognising revenue
on construction contracts. Operation or service revenue is recognised in the period in which the
services are provided by the Group. If the service concession arrangement contains more than one
performance obligation, then the consideration received is allocated with reference to the relative
Australian content
The estimated useful life of an intangible asset in a service concession arrangement is the period
from when the Group is able to charge the public for the use of the infrastructure to the end of the
Primary statements
concession period.
O. Financial instruments
x. Non-derivative financial assets – Service concession arrangements
The Group recognises a financial asset arising from a service concession arrangement when it
has an unconditional contractual right to receive cash from or at the direction of the grantor for
the construction or upgrade services provided, and the right to receive cash depends only on
the passage of time. Such financial assets are measured at fair value on initial recognition and
classified as financial assets measured at amortised cost.
If the Group is paid for the construction services partly by a financial asset and partly by an
intangible asset, then each component of the consideration is accounted for separately and is
initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration (see also (L)(x)).
