AUDITORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S INDEPENDENT DECLARATION A copy of the Auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Independence Declaration as required under Section 307c of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 12.

FINANCIAL OUTCOMES The financial result for 2016 was an operating deficit of $385,756. Revenue increased to $20,597,158, which represents an increase of 3.6%. This growth represents a healthy campus market which provides opportunity for improved financial return. The operating result was underpinned by deficits to the newly opened IGA Supermarket on the main campus and The Terrace Restaurant. Other trading units that did not meet financial expectations include UniShop, Eleven and Tenancy. Events & Venues improved their result materially from the previous year with revenue increasing by 18%. Child Care, UniBar and Cafes continued to perform well. The Centre for Student Engagement unit continued to provide programs across the various UOW campuses with 368 events involving 52,521 participants. General overheads were within financial expectations and budget despite the organisation increasing the services provided to the campus with increased retail outlets. Increased campus population and revenue combined with business maturity of trading units will provide the basis for an improved financial return in the new year.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies UOW Pulse Limited (the "Company") is a company limited by guarantee incorporated and domiciled in Australia. If the Company is wound up, each 'member' is liable to contribute a maximum of $1.00 towards the costs, charges and expenses of winding up the Company and payment of debts and liabilities of the Company. The address of the Company's registered office is Northfields Avenue, North Wollongong NSW 2500. The financial statement covers UOW Pulse Limited for the year ended 31 December 2016. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Company are providing services primarily to students including childcare, entertainment, student engagement activities, retail and food services. The University Council on the 22 April 2016 approved the restructure of University of Wollongong Recreation & Aquatic Centre Limited and Wollongong Unicentre Limited into a single entity UOW Pulse Limited effective from the 1 January 2017. The Council approved the transfer of URAC's existing activities and operations into UOW Pulse Limited on this restructure. On the 19 August 2016 the University Council approved a revised constitution of Unicentre in order to expand the objectives covering the range of services and activities offered by URAC.

On 1 January 2017 UOW Pulse will receive the net assets of the University of Wollongong Recreation and Aquatic Centre Limited less the debt forgiven by the parent entity. (a) Basis of preparation These financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (which includes Australian Accounting Interpretations) and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 and the Corporations Act 2001. These statements were authorised for issue on the 11th of April, 2017. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars. Compliance with Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Commission The financial statement have been prepared in accordance with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commissions Act 2012.

Historical cost convention The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except that the liability for long service leave is adjusted to net present value. Critical accounting estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may 6

UOW Pulse Ltd | 2016 Annual Report

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2016

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

(b) Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances, rebates and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Company and specific criteria have been met for each of the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activities as described below. The Company bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement. Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows: (i) Sale of goods and rendering of services Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised as revenue when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company. Revenue is recognised when the service is provided or by reference to the stage of completion. (ii) Lease income Lease income from operating leases is recognised as income on a straight line basis over the lease term. (iii) Interest income Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as it accrues. (iv) Dividends Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established. (v) Grants and contributions Grants and contributions are generally recognised as revenues when the company obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control over contributions is normally obtained upon the receipt of cash. (c) Interest costs Interest costs comprise interest payable on borrowings, which is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as it accrues (d) Income tax The operations of the Company are exempt from income tax under Section 50-5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act (1997). The operations of the Company are exempt from payroll tax under Sections 48(2) of the Payroll Tax Act 2007.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2016

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (e) Leases Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Company, as lessee, has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases (note 10). Finance leases are capitalised at the leaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inception at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are classified as operating leases (note 19). Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. Lease liabilities are reduced by repayments of principal. The interest components of the lease payments are expensed. Contingent rentals are expensed as incurred. (f) Impairment of assets Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the assetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. (g) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and on hand and short term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are included within interest bearing loans and borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position. (h) Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are recognised at the original invoice amount as this is not materially different to amortised cost, given the short term nature of these receivables. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for impairment of receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments (more than 30 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the provision is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Debt forgiveness is recognised as the amount receivable as at the time the debt is forgiven. (i) Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs are assigned to inventory on hand by the method most appropriate to each particular class of inventory, with the majority being valued on a weighted average cost basis. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less all estimated selling costs. 8

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (j) Investments and other financial assets Classification Investments and financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are categorised as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity investments, or available for sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Designation is re evaluated at each reporting date, but there are restrictions on reclassifying to other categories. (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are classified as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets. (ii) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after reporting date which are classified as non current assets. Loans and receivables are included in receivables in the statement of financial position. (iii) Held to maturity investments Held to maturity investments are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. (iv) Available for sale financial assets Available for sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of reporting date. Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade date - the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When securities classified as available for sale are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other comprehensive income are included in the statement of comprehensive income as gains and losses from investment securities. Subsequent measurement Available for sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' category are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit and loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as part of revenue from continuing operations when the Company's right to receive payment is established. Fair value The fair values of investments and other financial assets are based on quoted prices in an active market. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Company establishes fair value by using valuation techniques, that maximise the use of relevant data. These include reference to the estimated price in an orderly transaction that would take place between market participants at the measurement date. Other valuation techniques used are the cost approach and the income approach based on the characteristics of the asset and the assumptions made by market participants. 9

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2016

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Impairment The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of a security below its cost is considered in determining whether the security is impaired. If any such evidence exists for available for sale financial assets, the cumulative loss, measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit and loss, is removed from equity and recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Impairment losses recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on equity instruments are not reversed through the statement of comprehensive income in a subsequent period. (k) Property, plant and equipment (i) Owned Assets Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Subsequent costs are included in the assetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the reporting period in which they are incurred. Generally property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with a greater value than $5,000 are capitalised except for computer equipment which is normally capitalised irrespective of the $5,000 threshold where it is considered to be part of a network of assets. Other property, plant and equipment items will be capitalised if they are individually less than $5,000 in value only if they collectively with other items exceed $5,000 combined and form one asset item. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the specific assets as follows: 2016 Building improvements Plant and equipment Computer equipment

5 -10 years 3 -10 years 3 - 5 years

2015 5 -10 years 3 -10 years 3 - 5 years

The assetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of comprehensive income. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. (l) Intangible assets (i) Goodwill Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Company's interest in the net fair value of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are not subsequently reversed.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (ii) Computer Software Costs incurred in developing products or systems and costs incurred in acquiring software and licenses that will contribute to future period financial benefits through revenue generation and/or cost reduction are capitalised to software and systems. Amortisation is calculated on a straight line basis over periods generally ranging from 3 to 5 years. (iii) Occupancy Contribution The Company contributes to the cost of construction of buildings, their improvements and landscaping on land over which it has no security or tenure. These amounts are accounted for in the statement of financial position as Occupancy Contribution, pursuant to an agreement reached with the University of Wollongong. The Company has the right to occupy these buildings for the life of the asset. 2016 Occupancy Contribution

30 - 40 Years

2015 30 - 40 Years

(m) Trade and other payables Trade and other payables are stated at cost, which is considered to approximate amortised cost due to their short term nature and are recognised when the Company becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. (n) Borrowings Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities, which are not an incremental cost relating to the actual draw down of the facility, are recognised as prepayments and amortised on a straight line basis over the term of the facility. Borrowings are removed from the statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in other income or other expenses. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date and does not expect to settle the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. (o) Provisions Provisions for legal claims, service warranties and make good obligations are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Provisions are measured at the present value of managementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date. The pre tax discount rate used to determine the present value reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised in finance costs.

(p) Employee benefits (i) Short term obligations Liabilities for wages and salaries (including non monetary benefits) and annual leave that are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the service are recognised and measured in respect of employeesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; services up to the reporting date at undiscounted amounts based on the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Regardless of the expected timing of settlements, provisions made in respect of employee benefits are classified as a current liability, unless there is an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, in which case it would be classified as a non current liability. Long term annual leave that is not expected to be taken within twelve months is measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits. Unused non-vesting sick leave does not give rise to a liability as it is not considered probable that sick leave taken in the future will be greater than the benefits accrued in the future. (ii) Long service leave The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. The provision is calculated using estimated future increases in wage and salary rates including related on costs and expected settlement dates based on turnover history and is discounted using the rates attached to national government securities at reporting date which most closely match the terms of maturity of the related liabilities. Leave is charged to the provision at the time leave is taken. The provision for long service leave for the year ended 31 December 2016 was assessed by management in accordance with guidelines recommended by PricewaterhouseCoopers. The assumptions used to calculate the long service leave provision include: - Salary inflation rate per annum 3% (2015: 3%) - Discount rate 2.24% (2015: 2.6%) - Proportion of leave taken in service 18% (2015: 18%) (iii) Superannuation entitlements Contributions to employee superannuation funds are charged against income as incurred. The Company is under no legal obligation to make up any shortfall in the funds' assets to meet payments due to employees. (q) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows. (r) New accounting standards and interpretations Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 31 December 2016 reporting periods and have not yet been applied to the financial statements. The Company's assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is that they will not materially affect any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements or significantly impact the disclosures in the financial statement or significantly impact the disclosures in relation to the Company. 12

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2016

Financial risk management objectives and policies The Company's principal financial instruments comprise cash, investments, receivables, payables and borrowings. The Company manages its exposure to the following financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk relating to interest rate and equity risk in accordance with the Company's financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support the delivery of the Company's financial targets whilst protecting future financial security. The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board has established the Audit and Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring risk management policies. The Committee reports to the Board on its activities.

(a)

Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that indebted counter parties will default on their contractual obligations, resulting in financial loss to the Company. Credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. The majority of the Company's business is conducted by cash or EFTPOS, and consequently the level of credit risk is low. In addition, the majority of trade and other debtors are with related entities. The Company does not require collateral in respect of financial assets. Trade and other receivables that are neither past due or impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. Aggregates of such amounts are as detailed in Note 7. Investments are allowed only in liquid securities. All funds invested are invested with the National Australia Bank. The weighted average interest rate on interest earned by the Company is 1.48% (2015: 1.86%). At reporting date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets is equivalent to the carrying value and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the statement of financial position. Details with respect to credit risk of trade and other receivables are provided in Note 7.

(b)

Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Maturities of financial liabilities The tables below analyse the Group's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non derivative financial liabilities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant. For interest rate swaps the cash flows have been estimated using forward interest rates applicable at the end of each reporting period.

Market risk (i) Foreign currency risk The Company's only exposure to foreign currency risk is in relation to purchases of UniShop stock from overseas. These purchases are normally each less than $1,000 and in total are not material to the operations of UniShop as an individual business unit or to the Company. Sale price of these goods is set after the goods are paid for, thus the Australian Dollar amount is known, effectively passing on any foreign exchange cost or benefit to the customer.

UOW Pulse Ltd | 2016 Annual Report

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2016

Financial risk management objectives and policies (ii) Price risk The Company and the parent entity maybe exposed to equity securities price risk. This arises from investments that may be held by the Company and classified on the statement of financial position as fair value through profit or loss. At reporting date, the value of the securities was nil (2015: $nil). The Company is not exposed to commodity price risk. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, investments held by the Company are diversified. (iii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk Interest Rate Risk is limited to interest on the balance of the National Australia Bank accounts, shown as cash and cash equivalents in Note 6. The forecast at the end of 2016 is an increase or decrease of 1% based on the current Reserve Bank of Australia cash rate of 1.5%. The Company's trade and other receivables are non interest bearing and all related party loans and receivables are interest free. Interest rates on Commercial Hire Purchase finance are fixed at the time of drawdown of each individual loan within the umbrella facility. The Company's trade and other payables are non interest bearing. (iv) Summarised sensitivity analysis The following table summarises the sensitivity of the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s financial assets and financial liabilities to interest rate risk and price risk.

Impaired trade receivables As at 31 December 2016 current trade receivables of the Company with a nominal value of $854,615 (2015: $324,610) were past due. Of this past due amount, $5,737 (2015: $8,753) was considered impaired and provided for. The individually impaired receivables mainly relate to marketing and sponsorship customers, which are in unexpectedly difficult economic situations.

The creation and release of the provision for impaired receivables has been included in 'other expenses' in the statement of comprehensive income. Amounts charged to the allowance account are generally written off when there is no expectation of recovering additional cash. The other classes within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. Based on the credit history of these other classes, it is expected that these amounts will be received when due. Information about the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exposure to credit risk, foreign currency and interest rate risk is provided in Note 2. As of 31 December 2016, trade receivables of $848,878 (2015: $315,857) were past due but not impaired. These relate to a number of independent customers for whom there is no recent history of default. The ageing analysis of these trade receivables is as follows: 2016

University of Wollongong Recreation & Aquatic Centre Limited Directors' Report 31 December 2016 Review of operations The University of Wollongong Recreation and Aquatic Centre (URAC) operates to enhance the quality of life of our campus community through the provision of an extensive range of sporting, leisure, recreation, health and fitness opportunities through access to quality programs, services and facilities. URAC supports a membership base of approximately 2500 users. Of these approximately 60% are students, 30% university staff and 10% community members. An additional 1300 Fitness Passport holders from the community have registered to use the Recreation & Aquatic Centre and iChealth Club Facilities. Visitor numbers across all URAC managed areas were significantly less in 2016 with 590,000 visits recorded against 640,000 from 2015. This drop in visit numbers could be attributed to the disruptions caused whilst major refurbishment works were carried out to the foyer, sports hall of fame and main change room areas. URAC provided two team managers to assist with the operations of UOW teams at both the Australian University Games (AUG) and the Eastern University Games (EUG). A squad of 65 self-funded team members along with URAC staff Jaimie Hart and Chi Him Kong travelled to the AUG held in Perth in September with glowing reports on UOW team’s behavior and sportsmanship. URAC continued to be the preferred training facility for a number of elite sports teams and athletes, including St George Illawarra Dragons, South Coast Wolves FC and the Illawarra Cutters along with various elite triathletes and swimming coaches. A complete replacement of gym and cardio equipment at both URAC and iCHEALTH was finalized in October 2016. This represents an investment of approximately $600,000 in new state of the art training equipment. URAC continued the hosting of lectures and storage/office facilities for the School of Education, as well as a number of external groups, including the following regional sports groups:        

CIEE – Committee of International Student Exchange IAS – Illawarra Academy of Sport Indigo Wolf NSWRU - NSW Rugby Union Wollongong City Netball Triathlon Australia Wheelchair Sports NSW NSWIS

URAC continues to increase the level of community engagement on behalf of the University, across a range of sporting and non-sporting events throughout the year. URAC continues to play an integral part in the health and wellbeing of university students and staff as well as the Wollongong community at large. The University Council on the 22 April 2016 approved the restructure of University of Wollongong Recreation & Aquatic Centre Limited and Wollongong Unicentre Limited into a single entity UOW Pulse Limited effective from the 1 January 2017. The Council approved the transfer of URAC's existing activities and operations into UOW Pulse Limited on this restructure. On the 19 August 2016 the University Council approved a revised constitution of Unicentre in order to expand the objectives covering the range of services and activities offered by URAC. Wollongong Unicentre Limited changed its business name to UOW Pulse Limited on the 22 August 2016. On 1 January 2017 UOW Pulse received the net assets of the University of Wollongong Recreation and Aquatic Centre Limited less the debt forgiven by the parent entity.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards (which includes Australian Accounting Interpretations) requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimated and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Judgements made by management in the application of Australian Accounting Standards (which includes Australian Accounting Interpretations) that have a significant effect on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in note (n). The liability for long service leave is adjusted to net present value. (iii) Deficiencies in Net assets The Statement of Financial Position shows a deficiency of $1,178,894 for Net Assets (2015 $576,470). The company has considered the deficiency when preparing the financial statements and has been provided a letter of support from the parent entity. On the 22 April 2016, University Council approved the restructure of the company and its existing activities and operations will be transferred into UOW Pulse Limited from the 1 January 2017. Upon the transfer, UOW Pulse will receive the net assets of the University of Wollongong Recreation and Aquatic Centre Limited less the debt forgiven by the parent entity. These events necessitated changes being made to the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s financial statements which were amended to reflect the non-going concern basis of preparation. This resulted in the reclassification of its non-current assets and liabilities to current assets and liabilities. In December 2016, the Board of URAC resolved to move forward with voluntary deregistration.

(b)

Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances, rebates and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows:

(b)

Revenue recognition (i) Goods and Services Rendered Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. Revenue from rendering of services is recognised when that service has been fully provided. Revenue from memberships is accounted for on a cash basis in that it is recognised when a membership is signed up and income is not apportioned over the term of the membership. (ii) Rental income Rental income is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss on a straight-line basis as it is charged to tenants in accordance with individual leases. (iii) Interest Income Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss as it accrues.

(c)

Income Tax The operations of the Company are exempt from income tax under Sections 50-45 and 50-5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act (1997). The operations of the Company are exempt from payroll tax under Section 48(2) of the Payroll Tax Act 2007.

(d)

Leases Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Company, as lessee, have substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases (note 13). Finance leases are capitalised at the leaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inception at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding borrowings, net of finance charges, are included in borrowings. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the income statement over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the assetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s useful life and the lease term. Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are classified as operating leases (note 19). Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

(e)

Impairment of assets Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

(f)

Cash and cash equivalents For statement of cashflows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

(g)

Trade receivables Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. Short term receivables are recognised at original invoice amount because the impact of discounting is immaterial. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the income statement within â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;other expensesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the income statement. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for impairment of receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables.

(h)

Property, plant and equipment Items of property, plant & equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour. Where parts of an item of property, plant & equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant & equipment. From time to time the Company contributes to the cost of construction of buildings, their improvements and landscaping on land over which it has no security. These amounts are accounted for in the statement of financial position as Occupancy Contribution, pursuant to an agreement reached with the University of Wollongong. The Occupancy Contribution is recognised as an asset as it gives the Company the right to occupy and use the buildings, and is amortised at a rate which the Company believes best reflects the expected useful life of such contribution. The Company recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when the cost is incurred if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs are recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows: 2016 2015 - Building Improvements 10 years 10 years - Occupancy Contribution 13-36 years 13-36 years - Computer Equipment 3 years 3 years - Plant & Equipment** 4-10 years 4-10 years **Plant & equipment includes the following sub categories: general equipment, unigym/unicircuit equipment, leased equipment, furniture & fittings, motor vehicles, pool equipment, hockey equipment and sports hub equipment. The assetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. All assets acquired including property, plant and equipment and intangibles other than goodwill are initially recorded at their cost of acquisition at the date of acquisition, being the fair value of consideration provided plus incidental costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Expenditure, including that on internally generated assets other than research and development costs is only recognised as an asset when the entity controls future economic benefits as a result of the costs incurred, it is probable that those future economic benefits will eventuate, and the costs can be measured reliably. Costs attributable to feasibility and alternative approach assessments are expensed as incurred. Items of plant and equipment less than $5,000 are expensed as incurred.

(i)

Trade and other payables Trade and other payables are stated at cost, which is considered to approximate amortised cost due to their short term nature. Recognition of trade and other payables occurs when goods and services have been received and obligation to make future payments arises. 13

University of Wollongong Recreation & Aquatic Centre Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2016

Significant Accounting Policies

(i)

Trade and other payables Trade and other payables are due for settlement no more than 120 days from the date of recognition for related parties as per University of Wollongong's policy.

(j)

Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount has been reliably estimated. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to that liability.

(k)

Employee benefits (i) Short term obligations Liabilities for short-term employee benefits including wages and salaries and non-monetary benefits are measured at the amount expected to be paid when the liability is settled, if it is expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the reporting period, and is recognised in other payables. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rates payable. (ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations The liability for other long-term employee benefits such as annual leave, accumulating sick leave and long service leave is recognised in current provisions for employee benefits if it is not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the reporting period. It is measured at the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Regardless of the expected timing of settlements, provisions made in respect of employee benefits are classified as a current liability, unless there is an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, in which case it would be classified as a non-current liability. (iii) Superannuation Entitlements Contributions to employee superannuation funds are charged against income as incurred. The Company is under no legal obligation to make up any shortfall in the funds assets to meet payments due to employees.

(l)

Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

(m)

Borrowings Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period 14

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations Certain new Accounting Standards and Interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 31 December 2016 reporting period. The company has not early adopted any new account Accounting Standards and Interpretations that are not yet effective, as there are no Accounting Standards and Interpretations that will have a material effect on the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s financial statements. The Company has assessed the impact of these new Accounting Standards and Interpretations and considers the impact to be insignificant.

Financial Risk Management

(a) Market risk (i) Foreign exchange risk Foreign exchange risk arises when commercial transactions and recognised financial assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not in the Company's functional currency. The Company does not operate internationally and is therefore not exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures. (ii) Price risk The Company is not exposed to equity securities price risk and commodity price risk. (iii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk The Company has minimal interest rate risk, its borrowings are issued at fixed rates, and ultimate controlling entity does not charge interest to the Company. (iv) Summarised sensitivity analysis The following tables summarise the sensitivity of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities to interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and other price risk.

Financial Risk Management Credit risk Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents as well as credit exposures to wholesale and retail customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions. Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparts failed to perform as contracted. The credit risk on the Company's financial assets is the carrying amount shown on the statement of financial position. Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the net result that the Company's' exposure to bad debts is not significant. All outstanding amounts past 90 days are followed up on a monthly basis. The Company is not materially exposed to concentrations of credit risk to a single trade debtor or group of debtors.

(c)

Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, management aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping committed credit lines available with a variety of counterparties and flexibility in payment terms provided by the University of Wollongong. The board of directors have overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of risk management and reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set risk limits and control and to monitor risks. Compliance with policies is reviewed by internal audits on a continuous basis.
