FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 46 Notes to the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021 Company details McConnell Dowell Corporation Limited (the Company) is a public unlisted for-profit company incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Company’s registered place of business is Level 3, 109 Burwood Road, Hawthorn, Victoria, Australia. The ultimate Australian parent is Aveng Australia Holdings Pty Ltd. The ultimate parent is Aveng Limited (a company incorporated in South Africa). Basis of preparation The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB). The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments (when applicable) which have been measured at fair value. Where necessary, comparative figures have been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year disclosures. The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand ($000’s) except when otherwise indicated in accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors' Reports) Instrument 2016/191. The financial report was approved by a resolution of the Directors of the Company on 30th August 2021. Going Concern In determining the appropriate basis of preparation of the financial statements, the Directors are required to consider whether the Group can continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Company enters FY22 with increased levels of work in hand of $1,87 billion, following significant project wins in Australia, and South East Asia. At the date of this report the Company also has more than $1.5 billion of opportunities (based on current contract value) that are in sole source negotiations or in Early Contractor involvement stage and therefore it is probable these will be converted into contracted projects. In addition, there are a further $1.8 billion of other outstanding tenders and a further $7 billion tenders expected in FY22 which will provide a solid base for future growth. The Directors have reviewed business plans and detailed financial budgets for the year ending 30 June 2022 and beyond which indicate significant construction opportunities ahead. The construction markets of Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia are healthy, and the Company expects to continue winning work in the coming years to further grow the order book. These detailed financial budgets and business plans that are being implemented by management indicate that the Group will have sufficient liquidity resources for the foreseeable future. The Company has met its banking covenants for 30 June 2021 resulting in no breaches at year-end and current forecasts do not indicate any breaches in the upcoming financial quarters. The Group retains the support of its lenders, guarantee providers, and insurance bonding providers. The Directors have considered the business plans and detailed financial budgets, including all available information, and whilst significant estimates and judgements including the impacts of the wider economic environment (including COVID-19 specifically) are always and will continue to be required the Directors are of the opinion that the going concern assumption is appropriate in the preparation of the financial statements. Statement of compliance The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of McConnell Dowell Corporation Limited and its subsidiaries as at 30 June each year (the Group).
