2 Summary of significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation
of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented,
unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the consolidated entity consisting of CBD Energy Limited and its subsidiaries.
(a) Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The
financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial
assets, financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss. CBD Energy is
a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements of the CBD Energy
Limited group also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB).
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars
and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000) unless otherwise stated.
All common share, per common share, stock unit, per stock
unit data, stock option and warrant exercise prices per ordinary share and all convertible note conversion prices per share, for
all periods presented, have been adjusted to reflect a 1-for-300 reverse stock split of our ordinary shares effected February
6, 2014 (See Note 20).
(i) Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis
of going concern which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities
in the ordinary course of business. Key financial data for the Group for the financial years ended June 30, 2013 and June 30,
2012 is disclosed below:

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(a) Basis of Preparation (continued)
The Group incurred net operating cash outflows for the year
ended June 30, 2012. Trading in the period since June 30, 2013 has been difficult, and the company has continued to experience
operating losses and a reduction in net assets. The net current liability position noted at June 30, 2013 and 2012 is explained
by the convertible notes and other loans balances and outstanding creditors which are overdue and payable and hence classified
as current liability on these dates. Included in current liabilities, classified as “Interest bearing loans and borrowings”
are the following obligations which as at the date of this report continued to be in default of their respective loan conditions
or are callable on demand:

Secured convertible notes have a maturity date of May 30, 2015;
however, the Group was required to achieve repayment of US$3,850,000 by June 30, 2013
to avoid a default. The Group did not meet this payment by June 30, 2013, however since
June 30, 2013, the Group has sold certain assets and made part repayment of $1,194,000
(US$1,098,000) on these notes and is in final discussions with the holders of the notes
to restructure the key terms, including the cure of current defaults, removal of covenants
and deferral of interest payments. At the date of this report, agreements to implement
these changes and cure past defaults on this facility have been drafted and agreed in
principle with the note holders and it is anticipated that on execution of these agreements
the maturity date of the notes will revert to May 30, 2015. See Note 18(b)(i) and Note
29 for further details of the notes agreement.
|
|
(ii)
|
Loan balance of A$6,500,000 with an external party - under
the terms of this agreement, the lender may serve notice on the Company at which point
the loan becomes due and payable. The Company has reached an agreement with the lenders
to restructure the key terms of the notes, including extending the maturity date of the
loan to May 30, 2015, capitalisation of accrued interest and deferral of interest charges
and payments until July 2014. It is anticipated that on execution of the agreements for
the secured convertible notes note above in (i), the maturity date of the loan will be
May 30, 2015.
|
|
(iii)
|
Unsecured convertible notes with a face value of US$2,750,000
which were issued in December 2012 were in default at June 30, 2013. The Company has
received waivers from the holders of these notes for all previous breaches and defaults
under the convertible note agreements. It is anticipated that on execution of the agreements
for the secured convertible notes note above in (i), the maturity date of the unsecured
convertible notes will revert to 30 May 2015.
|
Consequently the ability of the Group to continue as a going
concern and meet its debts and commitments as and when they fall due requires that it meets or exceeds operational budgets in
the future, monetises long-term assets, receives continued forbearance and support from its lenders and creditors, and raises
funds from new loans and securities issuances. Therefore, there is substantial doubt with regards to the Group’s ability
to continue as a going concern and, therefore whether the Group will realise its assets and settle its liabilities at amounts
different from those stated in the financial statements. In order to reduce or eliminate this doubt and continue operating, the
Group is taking steps to:
|
·
|
Sustain
net operating profits: CBD is continually reviewing costs structures of the business
and making the appropriate changes to maximize return on revenues generated. New business
opportunities are assessed in order to identify opportunities for growth and increased
profitability.
|
|
·
|
Monetise
long-term assets: CBD’s intention is to monetize its investment in the Taralga
wind farm if a suitable opportunity is presented. This investment had a carrying value
of $10,800,000 at June 30, 2013.
|
|
·
|
Negotiate
restructure of debt with lenders to remedy defaults and defer current payments to creditors.
CBD is finalising agreements with lenders to restructure debt and with creditors to implement
payment arrangements which align with CBD’s cash inflows.
|
|
·
|
Restructure
and defer payments to creditors: CBD has been successful in negotiating improved terms
and reductions in amount payable with some major creditors. To accommodate the Group’s
cash flow requirements, some creditors have agreed to establish payments plan in order
to spread repayment. Refer to Note 29.
|
|
·
|
Raise
new debt and/or equity capital: CBD continues to discuss opportunities for further investment
with current equity holders.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(a) Basis of Preparation (continued)
The Directors note that there is a risk that some or all
of the above activities may not be successful, however, they believe that the Group has reasonable prospects of achieving the
above plans and as a consequence they have no intention to liquidate or cease trading.
The Directors have a responsibility to prepare the financial
statements in accordance with accounting standards, which requires entities to prepare financial statements on a going concern
basis unless the directors intend to liquidate the entity, cease trading or have no realistic alternative but to do so. No adjustments
have been made to the financial statements relating to the recoverability and classification of the asset carrying amounts or
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.
(b) Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires the use
of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the
group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and
estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 3.
(c) Compliance with IFRS
The financial report also complies with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
(d) New accounting standards and interpretations
(i) Changes
in accounting policy and disclosures.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those
of the previous financial year.
None of the new standards and amendments to standards that
are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 July 2012 affected any of the amounts recognised in the current
period or any prior period and are not likely to affect future periods. However, the adoption of AASB 1054
Australian Additional
Disclosures
and AASB 2011-1
Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Trans-Tasman Convergence Project
enabled the removal of certain disclosures in relation to commitments and the franking of dividends.
The Group has not elected to apply any pronouncements before
their operative date in the annual reporting period beginning 1 July 2012.
(ii) Australian
Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued but not yet effective
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that
have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Group for the annual reporting
period ending June 30, 2013, are outlined in the table below:

AASB 12 (IFRS 12)- Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities
|
|
AASB 12 includes all disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries,
joint arrangements, associates and structures entities. New disclosures have been introduced about the judgments made by management
to determine whether control exists, and to require summarised information about joint arrangements, associates and structured
entities and subsidiaries with non-controlling interests.

AASB 13 (IFRS 13)- Fair Value Measurement
|
|
AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance for determining the fair value of assets
and liabilities. AASB 13 does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather, provides guidance on how
to determine fair value when fair value is required or permitted. Application of this definition may result in different fair
values being determined for the relevant assets. AASB 13 also expands the disclosure requirements for all assets or liabilities
carried at fair value. This includes information about the assumptions made and the qualitative impact of those assumptions
on the fair value determined. Consequential amendments were also made to other standards via AASB 2011-8.

AASB 119 (IAS 19) - Employee Benefits
|
|
The main change introduced by this standard is to
revise the accounting for defined benefit plans. The amendment removes the options for accounting for the liability, and
requires that the liabilities arising from such plans is recognised in full with actuarial gains and losses being recognised
in other comprehensive income. It also revised the method of calculating the return on plan assets.
The revised standard changes the definition of short-term
employee benefits. The distinction between short-term and other long-term employee benefits is now based on whether the
benefits are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the reporting date.
Consequential amendments were also made to other
standards via AASB 2011-10.

AASB 10 establishes a new control model that applies
to all entities. It replaces parts of AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements dealing with the accounting
for consolidated financial statements and UIG-112 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities.
The new control model broadens the situations when
an entity is considered to be controlled by another entity and includes new guidance for applying the model to specific
situations, including when acting as a manager may give control, the impact of potential voting rights and when holding
less than a majority voting rights may give control.
Consequential amendments were also made to other
standards via AASB 2011-7.

AASB 1053 (IFRS for SMEs) - Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards
|
|
This Standard establishes a differential financial
reporting framework consisting of two Tiers of reporting requirements for preparing general purpose financial statements:
(a) Tier 1: Australian Accounting
Standards
(b) Tier 2: Australian Accounting
Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements
Tier 2 comprises the recognition, measurement and
presentation requirements of Tier 1 and substantially reduced disclosures corresponding to those requirements.
The following entities apply Tier 1 requirements
in preparing general purpose financial statements:
(a) For-profit entities in the private
sector that have public accountability (as defined in this Standard)
(b) The Australian Government and
State, Territory and Local Governments
The following entities apply either Tier 2 or Tier
1 requirements in preparing general purpose financial statements:
(a) For-profit private sector entities
that do not have public accountability
(b) All not-for-profit private sector
entities
(c) Public sector entities other
than the Australian Government and State, Territory and Local Governments.
Consequential amendments to other standards to implement

AASB 9 (IFRS 9) - Financial Instruments
|
|
AASB 9 includes requirements for the classification
and measurement of financial assets. It was further amended by AASB 2010-7 to reflect amendments to the accounting for
financial liabilities.
These requirements improve and simplify the approach
for classification and measurement of financial assets compared with the requirements of AASB 139. The main changes are
described below.
(a) Financial assets that are debt
instruments will be classified based on (1) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial
assets; (2) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows.
(b) Allows an irrevocable election
on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading
in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised
in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument.
(c) Financial assets can be designated
and measured at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces
a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise from measuring assets or liabilities, or recognising the gains
and losses on them, on different bases.
(d) Where the fair value option
is used for financial liabilities the change in fair value is to be accounted for as follows:
►
The
change attributable to changes in credit risk are presented in other comprehensive income (OCI)
►
The
remaining change is presented in profit or loss
If
this approach creates or enlarges an accounting mismatch in the profit or loss, the effect of the changes in credit risk
are also presented in profit or loss.
Consequential amendments were also made to other
standards as a result of AASB 9, introduced by AASB 2009-11 and superseded by AASB 2010-7 and 2010-10.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(e) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial
statements of CBD Energy Limited and its subsidiaries as outlined in Note 23 as at and for the year ended June 30, each year.
CBD Energy Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the “Group” or the “Consolidated
Entity”.
Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose
entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding
of more than one half of the voting rights, so as to obtain benefits from their activities. The existence and effect of potential
voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether a group controls another entity.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared
for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. In preparing the consolidated financial
statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions
have been eliminated in full.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which
the Group obtains control and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group.
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity,
represent the portion of a subsidiary's profit or loss and net assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total
comprehensive income or loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their
respective ownership interests. Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the
consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and balance sheet respectively.
Total comprehensive income within a subsidiary is attributed
to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account
for business combinations by the Group (refer to Note 2(f)).
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary that
does not result in a loss of control is accounted for as an equity transaction.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(f) Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition
method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, measured at acquisition date
fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Group elects whether
it measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s
identifiable net assets. Acquisition costs incurred are expensed and included in administrative expenses.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial
assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic
conditions, the Group’s operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This
includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition
date fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured at fair value as at the acquisition
date through profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer
will be recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Contingent consideration will be accounted for as a provision in accordance
with AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
(IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent
Assets)
and subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration is recognised in the profit or loss. If the
contingent consideration is classified as equity, it will not be re-measured. Subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.
All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business
combination are expensed to the statement of comprehensive income.
Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess
of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognised for non-controlling interest over the net identifiable
assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary
acquired, the difference is recognised in profit or loss.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost
less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is,
from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the
combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.
Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and
part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the
carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this
circumstance is measured based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit
retained.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(g) Investments in Associates
Associate companies are companies in which the Group has
significant influence but not control or joint control, generally through holding, directly or indirectly, between 20% and 50%
of the voting power of the company. Investments in associates are accounted for in the financial statements by applying the equity
method of accounting whereby the investment is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change
in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate company. In addition the Group’s share of the profit or loss of
the associate company is included in the Group’s profit or loss.
The carrying amount of the investment includes goodwill
relating to the associate. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the associate's identifiable assets,
liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of the investment is excluded from the carrying amount of the investment
and is instead included as income in the determination of the investor's share of the associate's profit or loss in the period
in which the investment is acquired.
Profits and losses resulting from transactions between the
Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the relation to the Group’s investment in the associate.
When the reporting dates of the Group and the associate
are different, the associate prepares, for the Group’s use, financial statements as of the same date as the financial statements
of the Group with adjustments being made for the effects of significant transactions or events that occur between that date and
the date of the investor's financial statements. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line
with those of the Group.
When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals
or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses unless it has incurred
legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. When the associate subsequently makes profits,
the Group will resume the recognition of its share of those profits once its share of the profits equals the share of the losses
not recognised.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines
whether it is necessary to recognise an additional impairment loss on its investment in its associate. The Group determines at
each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case,
the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying
value and recognises the amount as an impairment charge in the statement of comprehensive income.
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate, the
Group measures and recognises any retaining investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate
upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit
or loss.
(h) Interests in Joint Ventures
The Group has interests in joint ventures, which are jointly
controlled entities, whereby the venturers have a contractual arrangement that establishes joint control over the economic activities
of the entity. The agreement requires unanimous agreement for financial and operating decisions among the venturers.
The Group’s interests in jointly controlled entities
are brought to account using the equity method of accounting (refer to Note 2(g)) in the consolidated financial statements. The
parent entity’s interests in joint venture entities are brought to account at cost less impairment charge.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(i) Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages
in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions
with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision
maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial
information is available. This includes start up operations, which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider other
factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented
to the board of directors.
Operating segments have been identified based on the information
provided to the chief operating decision makers – being the Board of Directors.
Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as
prescribed by AASB 8
Operating Segments
(IFRS 8 Operating Segments)
are reported separately. Operating segments
that meet the aggregation criteria as prescribed by AASB 8
(IFRS 8 Operating Segments)
are reported together.
Refer to Note 4 for details of segments that the Group operates
in.
(j) Foreign currency translation
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the
Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the
functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars ($), which is CBD Energy
Limited’s functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional
currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from
the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss, except when they are deferred in equity when they are attributable to
part of the net investment in a foreign operation.
Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income
statement, within other revenue and other expenses. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement
on a net basis within other income or other expenses.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a
foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences
on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. For example, translation
differences on non-monetary assets such as equities classified as available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in other
comprehensive income or in profit or loss as part of the fair value loss when an impairment loss is recognised.

(j) Foreign currency translation (continued)
(iii) Group companies
The results and financial position of foreign operations
that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
|
·
|
assets and liabilities
for each balance sheet
presented are translated
at the closing rate
at the date of that
balance sheet
|
|
·
|
income and expenses
for each income statement
and statement of comprehensive
income are translated
at average exchange
rates (unless this is
not a reasonable approximation
of the cumulative effect
of the rates prevailing
on the transaction dates,
in which case income
and expenses are translated
at the dates of the
transactions), and
|
|
·
|
all resulting
exchange differences
are recognised in other
comprehensive income.
|
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the
translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a
foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, the associated exchange differences
are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.
(k) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable
that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is
being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually
defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty. The Group assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria to
determine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Group has concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue
arrangements. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised:
(i) Domestic Solar Installation fees/ STCs
Installation fees revenues are recognised once installation
is completed. Domestic Solar installation revenues are derived from solar PV system sales to third parties. Part of the consideration
the Group receives in respect of a solar installation is generally in the form of a Small-scale Technology Certificates (“STCs”)
that our customers assign to the Group. Under the Australian government program known as the Small-Scale Renewable Energy Scheme
(SRES), eligible residential solar systems are credited by the responsible government agency with a one-time allocation of STCs.
STCs are registered with the government regulator and do not expire. The regulator also establishes, on an annual basis, a purchase
obligation for power generators at a level that is expected to approximately equal the supply of STC’s the regulator forecasts
will be created from new installations during the year. The annual STC purchase obligation in each year is also adjusted by the
regulator to take into account over- or under-creation of STCs in prior years as compared with forecast. As a consequence of the
SRES and the mandated purchase obligation of the power producers STCs have an intrinsic value and an unregulated market for STCs
has developed in Australia. As the government agency responsible for balancing STC purchase obligations with supply has gained
experience over time, market volatility, liquidity and predictability of pricing have increased, but the market remains thin and
the number of market makers is small. STC prices are effectively capped by the right of obligated purchasers to pay a fixed-rate
penalty if they are unable to purchase sufficient STCs in the market to meet their obligations. We initially measure STCs assigned
to us as an inventory asset at fair value based on the fair value of the consideration received. When STCs are ultimately sold
by the Group incremental revenue might arise being the difference between the initial value at which the STCs was recorded at
and the final price at which STCs have been traded for by the Group. This incremental revenue is reported as other income. Similarly,
when STCs are sold at less than the value at which they were recorded at initially, the loss is reported within the cost of raw
materials in the income statement, as it represents in effect, a write down of the STCs inventory balance to its net realisable
value.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(k) Revenue recognition (continued)
(ii) Sale of products, materials and parts
Revenue from the sale of products, material and parts is
recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers.
(iii) Services
Revenue from the rendering of service is recognised upon
delivery of the service to the customers.
(iv) Construction contracts
Contract revenue and expenses are recognised in accordance
with the percentage of completion method unless the outcome of the contract cannot be reliably estimated. Under this method, contract
revenue is matched with the contract costs incurred in reaching the stage of completion, resulting in reporting revenue, expenses
and profit, which can be attributed to the work completed.
When it is probable that a loss will arise from a construction
contract, the excess of total costs over revenue is recognised immediately in the profit and loss. Where the outcome cannot be
measured reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that related expenditure is recoverable. The stage of completion of
a contract is measured by reference to the recoverable costs incurred to date as a percentage of estimated total costs for the
contract.
(v) Projects revenue
Revenue from commercial and utility scale solar projects
and wind development projects is recognised when the risks and rewards have been transferred which can vary depending on the specifics
of each arrangement that the Group has with its customers and when revenue can be reliably measured.
(vi) Land development and resale
Revenue is recognised when the risks and rewards have been
transferred and the entity retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor
effective control over the units sold. This is normally considered to occur on settlement.
(vii) Interest income
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest
method.
(viii) Dividends
Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive
payment is established. This applies even if they are paid out of pre-acquisition profits. However, the investment may need to
be tested for impairment as a consequence.
(ix) Other revenues
Other operating revenues are recognised as they are earned
and goods or services provided.
(l) Government grants
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair
value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the group will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised
in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property,
plant and equipment are offset against the carrying value of those assets.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(m) Income tax and other taxes
The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the
tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted
by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior
periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the current period's
taxable income. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the
reporting date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences
at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable
temporary differences except:
|
·
|
when the
deferred income
tax liability arises
from the initial
recognition of
goodwill or of
an asset or liability
in a transaction
that is not a business
combination and
that, at the time
of the transaction,
affects neither
the accounting
profit nor taxable
profit or loss;
or
|
|
·
|
in respect
of taxable temporary
differences associated
with investments
in subsidiaries,
associates and
interests in joint
ventures, when
the timing of the
reversal of the
temporary differences
can be controlled
and it is probable
that the temporary
differences will
not reverse in
the foreseeable
future.
|
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible
temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable
profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused
tax losses can be utilised, except:
|
·
|
When the
deferred income
tax asset relating
to the deductible
temporary difference
arises from the
initial recognition
of an asset or
liability in a
transaction that
is not a business
combination and,
at the time of
the transaction,
affects neither
the accounting
profit nor taxable
profit or loss;
or
|
|
·
|
In respect
of deductible temporary
differences associated
with investments
in subsidiaries,
associates and
interests in joint
ventures, deferred
tax assets are
recognised only
to the extent that
it is probable
that the temporary
differences will
reverse in the
foreseeable future
and taxable profit
will be available
against which the
temporary differences
can be utilised.
|
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at
each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to
allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting
date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset
to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the
tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and
tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset
only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax
assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Tax benefits acquired as part of a business combination,
but not satisfying the criteria for separate recognition at that date, would be recognised subsequently if new information about
facts and circumstances changed. The adjustment would either be treated as a reduction to goodwill (as long as it does not exceed
goodwill) if it was incurred during the measurement period or in profit or loss.
(i) Tax consolidation legislation
CBD Energy Limited and its wholly owned Australian controlled
entities implemented the tax consolidation legislation as of 1 July 2003.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts,
CBD Energy Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax
losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax-consolidated group.
Notes to the Financial Statements
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(m) Income tax and other taxes (continued)
(ii) Other taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the
amount of GST except:
|
·
|
When the
GST incurred on
a purchase of goods
and services is
not recoverable
from the taxation
authority, in which
case the GST is
recognised as part
of the cost of
acquisition of
the asset or as
part of the expense
item as applicable;
and
|
|
·
|
Receivables
and payables, which
are stated with
the amount of GST
included.
|
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the
taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on
a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from,
or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as part of operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount
of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(n) 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
an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
(o) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise
cash at bank and in 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 on the balance sheet.
(p) Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables, are recognised initially at original
invoiced amounts, less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. Settlement terms for trade receivables vary between the business
units and are generally in line with standard industry practice within each industry. They are presented as current assets unless
collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the reporting date.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing
basis. Individual debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified by reducing the carrying amount directly.
An allowance account (provision for impairment of trade receivables) is used when there is objective evidence that the group will
not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the 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 impairment allowance
is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. Cash flows relating
to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(p) Trade and other receivables (continued)
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in profit
or loss as a separate expense category. 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 profit or loss.
(q) Inventories
(i) Raw materials and stores
Inventories, which mainly comprise solar panels and inverters,
which are used in the residential solar businesses of the Group, are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs
are assigned to individual items of inventory on the basis of weighted average costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling
price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
(ii) Small-scale Technology Certificates (“STCs”)
As indicated in Note 2(k) (i), STCs are initially recognised
at fair value of the consideration received (the deemed cost) following the installation of a solar panel and the assignment of
the STCs to the Group. STCs are subsequently measured at lower of cost or net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated
selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make
the sale.
(iii) Project Work in Progress
Project work in progress comprises commercial solar scale
projects and is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises staff salary costs and direct expenses including
direct material costs and contractor costs together with an appropriate proportion of overheads. Net realisable value is based
on estimated selling prices less further costs expected to be incurred to completion.
Project work in progress also comprises wind farm development
projects. Costs incurred for developing wind farm projects for which the Group is earning a developer fee are recognised as inventory
when it is probable that the project will be completed and generate future economic benefits and its costs can be measured reliably.
The expenditure capitalised comprises all directly attributable costs, including costs of materials, services, direct labour and
an appropriate proportion of overheads. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognised as an expense
as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period.
(iv) Construction Contracts Work in Progress
Construction work in progress is valued at cost, plus profit
recognised to date less provision for anticipated future losses and progress billings made under the contract. Cost includes both
variable and fixed costs relating to specific contracts, and those costs that are attributable to the contract activity in general
and that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.
(r) Investments and other financial assets
Investments and financial assets in the scope of AASB 139
Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement
(IAS 39 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.
When financial assets are recognised initially, they are
measured at fair value, plus, in the case of assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction
costs.
Notes to the Financial Statements
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(r) Investments and other financial assets (continued)
Recognition and Derecognition
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets
are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date that the Group commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are
purchases or sales of financial assets under contracts that require delivery of the assets within the period established generally
by regulation or convention in the market place. Financial assets are derecognised when the right to receive cash flows from the
financial assets has expired or when the entity transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of the financial assets. If
the entity neither retains nor transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards, it derecognises the asset if it has transferred
control of the assets.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables including loan notes are non-derivative
financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at amortised
cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are
derecognised or impaired. These are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after
balance date, which are classified as non-current.
Available-for-Sale Investments
Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative
financial assets, principally equity securities that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as either financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, or held-to-maturity investments. After initial recognition
available-for-sale investments are measured at fair value with gains or losses being recognised as a separate component of equity
until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired. If there is objective evidence of impairment
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 or loss – is removed
from equity and recognised in profit or loss.
The fair values of investments that are actively traded
in organised financial markets are determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the reporting
date. For investments with no active market, fair values are determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include: using
recent arm's length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument that is substantially the
same; discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models making as much use of available and supportable market data as possible
and keeping judgemental inputs to a minimum.
(s) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated
depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of fixed assets constructed within the economic
entity includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’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 group and the cost of the item can be measured
reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over
the estimated useful life of the specific assets as follows:
Computer hardware and software - over 2 to 5 years
Motor vehicles - over 5 years
Plant and equipment – over 5 years
Furniture, fittings and office equipment – over 2
to 5 years
Leased motor vehicles – over 5 years
Leasehold improvements – over 3 years
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation
methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year-end.

(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(s) Plant and equipment (continued)
Derecognition
An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal
or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
(t) Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains
a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is
dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.
Group as lessee
Finance leases, which transfer to the Group substantially
all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair
value of the leased asset or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between
the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance
of the liability. Finance charges are recognised as an expense in profit or loss.
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 Group will obtain ownership
by the end of the lease term.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in
the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating lease incentives are recognised
as a liability when received and subsequently reduced by allocating lease payments between rental expense and reduction of the
liability.
(u) Goodwill and Other Intangibles
Goodwill
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially
measured at cost of the business combination being the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the Group's
net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost
less any accumulated impairment losses.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired
in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units, or groups of
cash-generating units, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets
or liabilities of the Group are assigned to those units or groups of units.
Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount
of the cash-generating unit (group of cash-generating units), to which the goodwill relates.
CBD Energy Limited performs its impairment testing as at
June 30, each year or more frequently, where there are indicators of impairment, using a value in use, discounted cash flow methodology
for the cash generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. Further details on the methodology and assumptions used are
outlined in Note 16.
When the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit
(group of cash-generating units) is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. When goodwill forms part
of a cash-generating unit (group of cash-generating units) and an operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated
with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal
of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this manner is measured based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and
the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.
Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are not subsequently
reversed.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(u) Goodwill and Other Intangibles (continued)
Intangibles other than Goodwill
Intangible assets acquired separately or in a business combination
are initially measured at cost. The cost of an intangible asset acquired in a business combination is its fair value as at the
date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and
any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised
and expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.
The useful lives of intangible assets other than goodwill
are assessed to be finite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful life and tested for impairment whenever
there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.
The amortisation period and the amortisation method for
an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least once each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful
life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for prospectively
by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, which is a change in accounting estimate. The amortisation expense
on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in profit or loss in the expense category consistent with the function of
the intangible asset.
Licences
Licences are recognised at cost of acquisition. Licences
have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis, matched to the future economic benefits over the life of the asset,
less any impairment losses. Licences are reviewed for impairment at the end of the financial year and more frequently when an
indication of impairment exists. Any impairment charge is recorded separately.
Patents
Patents are initially recognised at the cost on acquisition.
Patents have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the life of the
asset, less any impairment losses. Amortisation of the patents commences on commercialisation of this technology and is matched
to the timing of economic benefits flowing to the company from the application of this technology. Patents are reviewed for impairment
at the end of the financial year and more frequently when an indication of impairment exists. Any impairment charge is recorded
separately.
Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible
asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised
in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
(v) Pensions and other post-employment benefits
The company contributes to superannuation funds on behalf
of employees at the required statutory rates.
(w) Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost due
to their short-term nature they are not discounted. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior
to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of
the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within terms negotiated with suppliers.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(x) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings
All interest bearing loans and borrowings are initially
recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities
that are yield related are included as part of the carrying amount of the loans and borrowings.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless
the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred.
(y) Convertible notes
On issuance of the convertible notes, an assessment is made
to determine whether the convertible notes contain an equity instrument or whether the whole instrument should be classified as
a financial liability.
When it is determined that the whole instrument is a financial
liability and no equity instrument is identified (for example for foreign-currency-denominated convertibles notes), the conversion
option is separated from the host debt and classified as a derivative liability. The carrying value of the host contract
(a contract denominated in a foreign currency) at initial recognition is determined as the difference between the consideration
received and the fair value of the embedded derivative. The host contract is subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest rate method. The embedded derivative is subsequently measured at fair value at the end of each reporting
period through the profit and loss. The convertible note and the derivative are presented as a single number on the balance
sheet within interest-bearing loans and borrowings.
When it is determined that the instrument contains an equity
component based on the terms of the contract, on issuance of the convertible notes, the fair value of the liability component
is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond. This amount is classified as a financial liability measured
at amortised cost (net of transaction costs) until it is extinguished on conversion or redemption. The remainder of the proceeds
is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in equity. Transaction costs are deducted from equity,
net of associated income tax. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not re-measured in subsequent years.
(z) Provisions and employee benefits
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation
(legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will
be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be
reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement
is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions
are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability.
Warranty provisions
Provision is made for the estimated liability on all products
and services still under warranty at balance date. This provision is estimated having regard to prior service warranty experience.
In calculating the liability at balance date, amounts were not discounted to their present value as the effect of discounting
was not material. In determining the level of provision required for warranties, the Group has made judgments in respect of the
expected performance and the costs of fulfilling the warranty. Historical experience and current knowledge have been used in determining
this provision. The initial estimate of warranty-related costs is revised annually.

Deferred consideration
Deferred consideration acquired in a business combination
is initially measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. Subsequently, it is measured in accordance with AASB 137 Provisions,
Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
(IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement)
.
Expected losses on contracts
Where the outcome for a services contract is expected to
result in an overall loss over the life of the contract, this loss is provided for when it first becomes known that a loss will
be incurred.
Employee Entitlements
(i) Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary
benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised
in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities
are settled.
(ii) Long service leave
The liability for long service leave is recognised 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
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 currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
(aa) Share-based payment transactions
(i) Equity settled transactions:
The Group provides benefits to its employees (including
senior executives) in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over
shares (equity-settled transactions).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees
is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is
determined by using a Black-Scholes model, further details of which are given in Note 25.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken
of any vesting conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of CBD Energy Limited (market conditions) if
applicable.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together
with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled (the
vesting period), ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting date).
At each subsequent reporting date until vesting, the cumulative
charge to the income statement is the product of:
(i) the grant date fair value of the award;
(ii) the current best estimate of the number of awards that
will vest, taking into account such factors as the likelihood of employee turnover during the vesting period and the likelihood
of non-market performance conditions being met; and
(iii) the expired portion of the vesting period.
The charge to the statement of comprehensive income for
the period is the cumulative amount as calculated above less the amounts already charged in previous periods. There is a corresponding
entry to equity.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(aa) Share-based payment transactions (continued)
Until an award has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent
and will be adjusted if more or fewer awards vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any award subject to a market condition
is considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are
satisfied. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional
upon a market condition.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as
a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification
that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured
at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as
if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However,
if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the
cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected
as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share (see Note 9).
(ab) Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs
directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
(ac) Earnings per share
(i) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
|
·
|
the profit /
loss attributable to
owners of the company,
excluding any costs
of servicing equity
other than ordinary
shares,
|
|
·
|
by the weighted
average number of ordinary
shares outstanding during
the financial year.
|
(ii) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the
determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
|
·
|
the after income
tax effect of interest
and other financing
costs associated with
dilutive potential ordinary
shares, and
|
|
·
|
the weighted
average number of additional
ordinary shares that
would have been outstanding
assuming the conversion
of all dilutive potential
ordinary shares.
|
(ad) Parent entity financial information
The financial information for the parent entity, CBD Energy
Limited, disclosed in Note 29 has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out
below.
(i) Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint
venture entities
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture
entities are accounted for at cost less impairment charge in the financial statements of CBD Energy Limited. Dividends received
from associates are recognised in the parent entity’s profit or loss, rather than being deducted from the carrying amount
of these investments.
(ii) Tax consolidation legislation
CBD Limited and its wholly
-
owned
Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation.
The head entity, CBD Limited, and the controlled entities
in the tax consolidated group account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each
entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a stand-alone taxpayer in its own right.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(ad) Parent entity financial information (continued)
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts,
CBD Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses
and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group.
The entities have also entered into a tax funding agreement
under which the wholly
-
owned entities fully compensate CBD Limited
for any current tax payable assumed and are compensated by CBD Limited for any current tax receivable and deferred tax assets
relating to unused tax losses or unused tax credits that are transferred to CBD Limited under the tax consolidation legislation.
The funding amounts are determined by reference to the amounts recognised in the wholly
-
owned
entities’ financial statements.
The amounts receivable/payable under the tax funding agreement
are due upon receipt of the funding advice from the head entity, which is issued as soon as practicable after the end of each
financial year. Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as
current amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the group.
(ae) Rounding of amounts
The company is of a kind referred to in Class Order 98/100,
issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the financial
statements. Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off in accordance with that Class Order to the nearest thousand
dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.
2.1 Correction of prior period errors
|
1.
|
The Group has corrected an error relating to the accounting
treatment of a $239,000 increase in contingent consideration payable
to the vendors of the eco-Kinetics group of companies at June 30, 2010.
This adjustment was previously recognised as an increase in goodwill
in the 2011 financial year, however, the correct treatment was to record
it as a loss on re-measurement in contingent consideration payable
in the Statement of Comprehensive income for the year ended June 30,
2010.
|
|
2.
|
It was determined that a $430,000 tax benefit recognised in
the statement of comprehensive income in 2010 on costs relating to
issue of share capital should be recognised in equity.
|
|
3.
|
The Group has undertaken a detailed review of the terms of the
convertible notes issued in 2010. As a consequence, it was determined
that the convertible notes contained an equity component valued at
$194,000 which has been adjusted to equity. An additional interest
expense has been recognised of $119,000 in 2010 and $75,000 in 2011
on these convertible notes. The conversion terms of these notes was
changed during the year ended June 30, 2011 which resulted in a further
$380,000 interest expense being recognised during that year which had
not been previously recognised.
|
|
4.
|
A deferred tax asset relating to a capital gain loss for an
investment amounting to $330,000 was incorrectly recognised at June
30, 2011.
|
The effect on earnings per share related to the restatement
in 2012 was an increase in basic earnings per share by $21.00 to ($25.83) per share and an increase in diluted earnings per
share by $21.00 to ($25.83) per share.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
3 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are
based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on
the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
(a) Critical accounting estimates
and assumptions
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the
future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions
that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year are discussed below.
(i) Recovery of deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary
differences as management considers that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise those temporary
differences.
Judgement is required in assessing whether deferred tax
assets are recognised in the statement of financial position. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from un-recouped tax
losses, capital losses and temporary differences, are recognised only where it is considered more likely than not that they will
be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of sufficient future taxable profits.
Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits
depend on management's estimates of future cash flows. These depend on estimates of future sales, operating costs, capital expenditure
and other capital management transactions. Judgements are also required about the application of income tax legislation. These
judgements and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty, hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will
alter expectations, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognised on the balance
sheet and the amount of other tax losses and temporary differences not yet recognised. In such circumstances, some or all of the
carrying amounts of recognised deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in a corresponding credit
or charge to the income statement.
During the last financial year ended June 30, 2012 the Group
reversed previously recognised deferred tax assets of $2,770,000 and did not recognise any deferred tax assets in relation to
that year’s operating losses. No deferred tax assets have been recognised in relation to the current year’s operating
losses. This decision was made after considering the financial performance of the Group during the current and prior years and
the material uncertainty about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern (refer to Note 2 (a) (i)).
(ii) Impairment of goodwill and other
intangibles other than Patents
The Group determines whether goodwill and other intangibles
other than patents are impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating
unit(s), using a value in use discounted cash flow methodology, to which the goodwill or other intangible assets are allocated.
The assumptions used in this estimation of recoverable amount and the carrying amount of goodwill and other intangibles including
a sensitivity analysis are discussed in Note 16.
(iii) Project work in progress
Project work in progress is capitalised in accordance with
the accounting policy in Note 2(q) (iii). Initial capitalisation of costs is based on management’s judgment that technological
and economical feasibility is confirmed, usually when a project has reached a defined milestone. Determination of the amounts
to be capitalised, is made on a case-by-case basis giving regard to previous experience of the Group in similar projects and contractual
arrangements. At June 30, 2013, the carrying amount of capitalised project work in progress was $201,000 (June 30, 2012: $13,389,000).
(iv) Share-based payment transactions
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions
with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value
is determined using a Black-Scholes model, with the assumptions detailed in Note 25. The accounting estimates and assumptions
relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within
the next annual reporting period.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
3 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
(continued)
(iv) Share-based payment transactions (continued)
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions
with regards to warrants issued to lenders using an un-modified binominal lattice model giving consideration to the dilution impact
of the shares issued upon conversion of the warrants as well as other options on issue.
(v) Patents
At June 30, 2012, prior to its sale, the Group measured
the carrying value of the Larkden controlled storage technology patents at cost less impairment and amortisation. The recoverable
amount is the higher of the patents value in use or fair value less cost to sell. The fair value has been determined by an external
valuer in accordance with the definition of fair value in AASB 13
Fair Value Measurement (IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement)
.
This has been measured on the basis of what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller for the patents in a market based transaction.
The valuation has been determined using a discounted cash flow methodology and considering the Patents as a group and as a type
of start-up / early stage commercialisation technology. The external valuer has constructed various alternative scenarios as to
possible likely future outcomes projecting various associated cash flows for each alternative scenario; applying a range of discount
rates to the various projected cash flows to determine a range of indicated net present values.
Under the discounted cash flow valuation methodology, the
value of the Patents as a group is equivalent to the present value of the prospective stream of net cash flow amounts (fee income
less expected expenses) that would be receivable from the utilised Patents. Refer to Note 16 (b).
(vi) Wind development projects
Part of CBD’s business is the development of large-scale
wind projects in Australia whereby CBD earns a developer fee. In respect of the Taralga Wind project, costs incurred for developing
the project were initially recognised as inventory as it was probable that the project will be completed and generate future economic
benefits (refer Note 2(q)(iii). On 9 October 2012, CBD sold the Taralga Wind project it had developed in return for cash of $6,993,000
plus a 10% interest in the project’s vehicle established for the transaction. The accounting treatment was to:
|
·
|
recognise revenue
which includes the fair
value of the 10% ownership
interest valued at $10,000,000
in two entities (Taralga
Holding Nominees 1 Pty
Ltd and Taralga Holding
Nominees 2 Pty Ltd)
|
|
·
|
recognised revenue
of $6,993,000 which
has been paid in cash
during the period, and
|
|
·
|
expense development
costs carried in inventory
as Cost of Goods sold
for $3,099,000
|
resulting in a net profit on the sale of $13,894,000.
The investment of 10% of the Taralga Wind Farm project is
by way of investment in two entities, Taralga Holding Nominees 1 Pty Ltd and Taralga Holding Nominees 2 Pty Ltd. This investment
was funded by CBD from the re-investment of part of its development fee generated on equity close of the project. This investment
is classified as an “Available-for-sale financial asset”. CBD intends, along with the majority equity holder, to exit
this investment within a 3 year period. The investment in Taralga was initially recognised at fair value at the date of the equity
transaction on 9 October 2012. The fair value was determined based on discounting the cash flows which will be received on exit
based on several scenarios of the financial model for the project and the contractually defined distributions from any sales profits
due to CBD on exit. Due to the requirement for judgement over variables within the financial model to determine future returns
and profit achievable on exit, the fair value calculations were based on a net present value of a risk adjusted, probability weighted
average return from different sales Internal Rate of Return (IRR) expectations.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
3 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
(continued)
(vi) Wind development projects (continued)
The range of IRR assumptions used in these calculations
was from 9.0% to 13.0% which are considered the high and low points between which arm’s length sales transactions of wind
farm projects may occur in Australia. A discount rate of 17.0% was applied to the calculated amount to reflect the risk to deliver
the project as per the model associated with construction risk and the time value of money based on return premiums specific to
the project. The range of outcomes of the fair value calculations was from $9,500,000 to $10,900,000 and the adopted value was
$10,000,000. Variances between actual results and the estimated results from the valuation methodology may result in higher or
lower profits being achieved on exit of this project. After initial recognition the investment in the Taralga Wind Farm project
is accounted for as available-for-sale an investment which is measured at fair value with gains recognised in other comprehensive
income and in an available-for-sale reserve until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired.
At June 30, 2013 this available-for-sale asset has been revalued to $10,800,000. This revaluation was based on an indicative offer
to acquire the asset which was received by the Group during the year. This offer is not currently being pursued.
(vii) Contingent consideration
On 16 April 2013, the Group’s interests in Larkden
Pty Ltd were sold including the energy storage patents held by Larkden. The sale price was $2,750,000 of which $250,000 was received
in cash at the time of sale. The balance of the payments of $2,500,000 is to be received in three tranches on the anniversaries
of the sale from 2015 to 2017 and is recorded in other non-current receivable. Interests on the deferred purchase price accrue
at market rate. If certain targets of installed capacity of the storage technology are not met within 3 years of the date of sale
then the purchase price shall be reduced by $1,000,000. Management has estimated that the target will be met within the 3 years
period and hence the total consideration has been determined to be $2,750,000. The carrying value of the patents assets was $3,295,000
at the date of the sale which will result in a net loss on sale of $545,000 based on the total consideration of $2,750,000.
Management have assessed the likelihood of the required
installed capacity target being achieved based on information contained within an Independent Valuation Report conducted for the
Group in October 2012, recent updates from the purchaser, and the Group’s accumulated knowledge of the projects on which
the technology is currently being utilised.
(b) Critical judgements in applying the entity’s
accounting policies
(i) Revenue recognition
As indicated in Note 2 (k), STCs are initially recognised
at fair value of the consideration received following the installation of a solar panel and the assignment of the STCs to the
Group. The fair value of the consideration received is determined by reference to the traded price of STCs at the time of installation
as well as other available market and internal data. Given the time required to register and on-sell the STCs, this may vary from
the price realised for the STCs upon sale.
(ii) Net realisable
value for STCs inventories
Once recognised on the balance sheet, STCs are subsequently
measured at lower of cost or net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course
of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Judgement is applied when
determining the net realisable value. This includes consideration of the number of STCs that the Group has at balance sheet, the
estimated period it will take to sell the STCs, the ability of the Group to sell the STCs in the ordinary course of business,
potential forward sale contracts that the Group has at balance sheet date, observed STCs market price and STCs actual price prior
to balance date and actual price subsequent to balance sheet date.
(iii) Impairment of available
-
for
-
sale
financial assets
The Group has determined that its investment in Andalay
Solar Inc, a US listed company, has been subject to a significant and prolonged decrease in market price. As a result in accordance
with the Group’s accounting policy regarding available-for-sale financial assets (refer to Note 2 (r)) the Company has recognised
an impairment to the carrying value of the asset through its income statement for the year ended June 30, 2013 amounting to $560,000.

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing
net profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the year.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
9 Earnings per share (continued)
Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing
the net profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent (after adjusting for interest on the convertible notes) by
the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares
that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
The following anti-dilutive share options have been excluded
from the calculation of diluted earnings per share that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future if they become
dilutive:

(a) Past due but not impaired
As at June 30, 2013, trade receivables past due but not
considered impaired are: $2,490,000 (2012: $1,930,000).
Payment terms on these amounts have not been re-negotiated.
Direct contact with the relevant debtor has been made and the Group is satisfied that payment will be received in full. Since
balance date $1,909,000 of these past due amounts have been received.
Other balances within trade and other receivables do not
contain impaired assets and are not past due. It is expected that these other balances will be received when due.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
11 Trade and other receivables (continued)
(b) Other receivables
These amounts generally arise from transactions outside
of the usual operating activities of the Group. The current balance at June 30, 2013 mainly related to retention amounts on large
scale solar projects which are due on final completion of the projects. The current balance at June 30, 30 2012 mainly related
to a portion of the convertible note that had been issued by the Group (refer Note 18 – Series 1), but for which the cash
had not received at balance date.
The non-current balance at June 30, 2013 related to the
receivable from the sale of Larkden Pty Ltd (refer Note 16(b)).
(c) Impaired trade receivables
As at June 30, 2013, current trade receivables of the Group
with a nominal value of $245,000 (2012: $803,000) were impaired. The amount of provision was $245,000 (2012: $803,000). These
amounts have been included in the allowance for impairment loss above, and within the provision for impairment of receivables
in the income statement.
Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally
on terms of up to 30 days. A provision for impairment loss is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual trade
receivable is impaired.
(d) Fair value and credit risk
Due to the short-term nature of these receivables, their
carrying value is assumed to approximate their fair value.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is the fair value of
receivables. Collateral is not held as security, nor is it the Group's policy to transfer (on-sell) receivables to special purpose
entities. The non-current receivable (refer Note 11(b) is secured over the shares of Larkden Pty Ltd.
(e) Foreign exchange and interest rate risk
Detail regarding the Group’s exposure to foreign currency
risk and interest rate risk in relation to trade and other receivable is provided in Note 22.

# Work in progress at June 30, 2012 was made up of costs
incurred in constructing a 5MW solar project in Italy and development expenditure on the Taralga wind farm project. Since June
30, 2012 the Italian Solar project has been sold and development costs for Taralga have been reimbursed with the respective work-in-progress
amounts transferred to the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year ended June 30, 2013.
* As indicated in Note 2 (q), STCs are initially recognised
at fair value of the consideration received (the deemed cost) following the installation of a solar panel and the assignment of
the STCs to the Group. STCs are subsequently measured at lower of cost or net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated
selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make
the sale. The net carrying value of STCs incorporates a provision for unrecoverable STCs calculated as 5% of the gross carrying
value at balance date.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
12 Inventories (continued)
When STCs are ultimately sold by the Group incremental revenue
might arise being the difference between the initial value at which the STCs was recorded at and the final price at which STCs
have been traded for by the Group. This incremental revenue is reported as other income. Similarly, when STCs are sold at less
than the value at which they were recorded at initially, the loss is reported within the cost of raw materials in the income statement,
as it represents in effect, a write down of the STCs inventory balance to its net realisable value.
Write down of STCs inventories to net realisable value recognised
as an expense during the year ended June 30, 2013 amounted to $nil (year ended June 30, 2012 $103,000). The expense has been included
in the raw materials, consumables used & contractors in the statement of comprehensive income. In addition to these amounts,
in accordance with the accounting policy described above, an additional income amounting to $489,000 (2012: loss of $4,173,000)
being the difference between the value at which the STCs were initially recorded and the final sale of STCs has been included
in other income line item in the statement of comprehensive income. The loss in 2012 has been included in the raw materials, consumables
used and contractors line item in the statement of comprehensive income.

During the year ended June 30, 2013 the Group made an investment
in Taralga Holding Nominees 1 Pty Ltd and Taralga Holding Nominees
2 Pty Ltd. See Note 3(vi) for details on the investment.
|
|
(b)
|
On January 4, 2012, CBD invested US$1,000,000 into Andalay
Solar (previously Westinghouse Solar Inc.) to acquire 1,666,667
common stock in this US listed company. This represented an ownership
of approximately 9% of the common stock of Andalay Solar. CBD Energy
does not have a controlling interest in Andalay Solar and as such
this investment is valued on a mark to market basis. An impairment
loss of $560,000 has been recognised during the year as it was deemed
that the decline in value was significant compared to the original
cost of the investment.

16 Non-current assets – intangible assets and goodwill
(continued)
(b) Patents
On 16 April 2013, the Group’s interests in Larkden
Pty Ltd were sold including the energy storage patents held by Larkden. The sale price was $2,750,000 of which $250,000 was received
in cash at the time of sale. The balance of the payments of $2,500,000 is to be received in three tranches on the anniversaries
of the sale from 2015 to 2017 is recorded in other non-current receivable. Interests on the deferred purchase price accrue at
market rate. If certain targets of installed capacity of the storage technology are not met within 3 years of the date of sale
then the purchase price shall be reduced by $1,000,000. Management has estimated that the target will be met within the 3 years
period and hence the total consideration has been determined to be $2,750,000. The carrying value of the patents was $3,363,000
at the date of the sale which resulted in a net loss on sale of $613,000 based on the total consideration of $2,750,000.
The transaction entered into by the Group in respect of
the sale also included additional consideration of $1,740,000. This comprised consideration for the termination of a licence of
$750,000 held by another CBD entity for use of the storage technology for which the associated assets had a carrying value of
$402,000 at the date of sale resulting in a net gain on sale of $348,000 and reimbursement of costs of $990,000 incurred by CBD
which were also paid as part of that the sale and for which no asset was recognised on the balance sheet as at the date of the
sale. Overall, CBD made a gain of $725,000 as a result of that transaction. The sale price has been allocated between the various
component of the transaction based on the contractual agreements associated with each part of the transaction.
(c) License costs and development costs
The carrying amount of development costs of $402,000 at
June 30, 2012 represented development costs associated with linking solar and wind generating assets with energy storage technology
for a remote area renewable energy project. As part of the sale of the patent asset (refer Note (b) above), the licence for use
of the storage technology in this project was terminated.
(d) Goodwill
(i) Description of the cash generating units and other
relevant information
Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s cash-generating
units (CGUs) identified to the operating segment. A segment-level summary of the goodwill allocation is presented below:

At June 30, 2013 the directors tested goodwill amounting
to $18,898,000 for impairment. As a result of that review an impairment of $3,000,000 was recorded in respect of the Solar CGU
as at June 30, 2013, thereby reducing its carrying value to $15,898,000 at that date. In conducting this review of goodwill, the
Group considers the relationship between its market capitalisation and its book value, among other factors, when reviewing for
indicators of impairment. As at June 30, 2013, an indicator of potential impairment existed as the market capitalisation of the
Group was below the book value of its equity and the Solar PV CGU did not achieve the EBITDA forecasts and associated cash flow
assumptions used in the goodwill analysis at 31 December 2012 and June 30, 2012.
The Company believes that the structural changes to the
Solar PV operations should enable the Solar PV business to operate profitably and be cash flow positive in future years.

16 Non-current assets – intangible assets and goodwill
(continued)
(ii) Key assumptions used in value in use calculations
for the cash generating units for June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012
The Group performs its impairment testing as at June 30
each year or more frequently where there are indicators of impairment. The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on
value-in-use calculations. The recoverable amount of the CGUs has been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash
flow projections as at June 30, 2013 based on financial budgets approved by senior management covering a two year period.
Cash flows beyond the two year period are extrapolated using
growth rates between -3.5% for the Parmac CGU to 0.0% for Solar PV CGU and terminal growth rates of 0.0% are used beyond the fifth
year (June 30, 2012 growth rates: -3.5% to 5.5%), which is consistent of the long-term average growth rate for the industries
in which the CGUs operate.
The pre-tax, risk adjusted discount rate applied to cash
flow projections is 27.5% (June 30, 2012: 36.5%). The discount rate applied at June 30, 2013 is lower than that applied at June
30, 2012 primarily due to the re-assessment of the market risk premium.
The calculation of value in use is most sensitive to the
following assumptions:
|
•
|
earnings
before interest, tax, depreciation & amortisation
(EBITDA);
|
|
•
|
growth rate
used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the budget
period.
|
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation & amortisation
– EBITDA forecasts are based on projections for the forthcoming 5 year period. The basis for these projections
is the recent historical performance of the CGU’s adjusted for any non-recurring revenue or cost items. This is then overlaid
with the impact of changes to revenue streams, gross margins and cost structures which have either now been put in place or are
underway. In respect of the Solar PV CGU, a significant contribution to the projected results is from replenishing the current
pipeline of the USA and United Kingdom solar businesses at a rate sufficient to maintain or grow revenues when the current pipeline
has been exhausted. The current pipeline and the relationships being used to replenish this pipeline have been in development
by the technical and management teams within the Solar PV CGU since CBD Energy acquired the business in January 2010. Projections
are based on the Group’s reasonable expectations of delivery and replenishment of this pipeline. Given some inherent uncertainty
around future pipelines, sensitivity analysis has been applied to the value in use calculations for the USA and United Kingdom
based on achievement levels from 0% to 75% of the projected results. Another significant contribution to the projected results
is an improved performance in the domestic solar operations. This part of the CGU has been significantly restructured reducing
costs and achieving better pricing from suppliers thereby increasing operating margins. Sensitivity analysis has been applied
to the value in use calculations for the domestic solar operations based on achievement levels from 65% to 100% of the projected
results.
Discount rates
- discount rates reflect the
estimate of the Group’s time value of money. This is the benchmark used by the Group to assess operating performance and
to evaluate future investment proposals. In determining appropriate discount rates, regard has been given to the weighted average
cost of capital of the entity as a whole. The business risk specific to each unit are reflected in their individual cash flows.

|
(i)
|
Sensitivity to changes in assumptions
|
The implications of the key assumptions on the recoverable
amount are discussed below:
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation & amortisation
(“EBITDA”)
– the Group recognises that market competition, new entrants, government regulation and
incentive schemes, and general economic climate amongst other factors can have a significant impact on EBITDA forecasts and associated
cash flow assumptions. As indicated above, the future earnings for the Solar CGU are dependent on achieving targets in the key
territories of Australia, United Kingdom and USA. If penetration in these markets is not achieved as budgeted by the Group this
may cause the carrying value of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount. In determining whether goodwill is impaired, a range
of carrying values has been assessed based on the following scenarios:
Australia – 100% to 65% EBITDA forecast achievement
:
the most mature market for the solar CGU. The residential projections are based on historical performance and no major market
changes have occurred in the past 12 months so that is considered an appropriate guide. The commercial projection is based on
an identified pipeline plus an uplift to reflect industry projections that the solar (in particular commercial) market in Australia
will continue to expand. The range of projected revenues represents a very small portion of the Australian market.
UK – 75% to 25% EBITDA forecast achievement
:
the UK operations have completed a significant number of installations historically and current operations are managed using a
combination of local staff and Australian solar staff transferred to the UK. The UK business is projected to experience strong
revenue growth, and as such a wide range of projected outcomes has been used in this analysis. CBD has developed a pipeline and
has close links with an early stage solar projects developer who is able to source projects required to complete this pipeline
and provide financing solutions to facilitate their construction. The UK business is also developing its own pipeline independently
of this.
USA – 25% to 0% EBITDA achievement:
The USA is CBD’s least developed solar market and operations having completed a 1.4MW solar project in New Jersey to date.
CBD has an arrangement with a solar developer to provide EPC services, and this developer has a significant pipeline of projects
it is discussing with CBD. This is considered an early stage relationship and as such the range of weightings applied to the US
business is low.
Growth rate assumptions
- the Group recognises
that the speed of technological change and the possibility of new entrants can have a significant impact on growth rate assumptions.
The effect of new entrants is not expected to impact adversely on forecasts included in the budget, but could yield a reasonably
possible alternative to the estimated long term growth rate of 0.0%. The Group believes that in isolation to changes in other
key assumptions no reasonably possible change in this assumption would cause the carrying value of the units to materially exceed
their recoverable amounts.
Discount rate assumptions
- the Group recognises
that actual time value of money may vary to what they have estimated. Management believes that in isolation to changes in other
key assumptions no reasonably possible change in this assumption would cause the carrying value of any of the units to materially
exceed their recoverable amount.
Based on the revised input assumptions and sensitivity analysis
conducted on the value in use calculations, a range of valuations of goodwill are indicated between $22,700,000 and $9,100,000,
with a maximum impairment required of $8,200,000.
Using a weighted average of the outcomes in the sensitivity
range tested an impairment of $3,000,000 is indicated and has been recognised as a charge to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

(1) The facility is secured by purchased stock and by the
assets of eco-Kinetics Pty Ltd. The facility has been withdrawn by the lender and the balance to be repaid has been classified
as an overdraft. The overdraft is secured by a first-ranking fixed and floating charge on the assets of the eco-Kinetics entities
and guaranteed by CBD Energy Ltd.

(a) Other Loans
(i) Secured
The other loans balance as at June 30, 2012 included a balance
of $10,763,000 drawn on the entity’s construction finance facility in relation to the 5MW Italy solar project completed
in June 2012. This loan was repaid in full on the sale of the Italy project in December 2012 and as such the balance on this facility
at June 30, 2013 was $nil. The US$25,000,000 line of credit remains available for redraw by the Group for use against subsequent
projects; however, at reporting date it was not in use. The interest rate is calculated with reference to the higher of a fixed
rate of 24% per annum or a 30% share of the profit realised on sale of the projects. Security was issued over the assets under
construction.
Other loans of $6,500,000 are secured by 2nd ranking fixed
and floating charge over all otherwise unencumbered assets of the Group. Interest is payable on this loan at the penalty rate
of 15%. Under the terms of the agreement with the loan provider it may serve notice on the Company at which point the loan becomes
due and payable. The loan provider has issued no notice of default or demand for repayment to the Company. At maturity the loan
provider may require that some or all of the loan be converted into ordinary shares of the Company, up to a maximum of 133,333
ordinary shares, should the Company fail to repay the loan in full. The Group entered into an agreement with this lender in February
2013, under which the lender has agreed not to request repayment of this debt, or interest accruing on it, prior to 30 July 2013.
The Company is currently finalising an agreement with the lenders to restructure the key terms of the loan, including extending
the maturity date of the loan to 30 May 2015, capitalisation of accrued interest and deferral of interest charges and payments
until July 2014. A further agreement to cure past defaults on this facility is also being drafted and it is anticipated that on
execution of these agreements the maturity date of the loan will be 30 May 2015. As part of the renegotiation of the convertible
notes – series 1 (refer below) 66,667 warrants that were previously issued to the lender were re-priced from $15.90 to $8.25.
(ii) Unsecured
In December 2012, the Group issued $750,000 of instalment
loan notes to a professional advisor of the Group in lieu of cash payments for services received. The instalment notes do
not bear interest and are payable in 18 equal monthly instalments, commencing in January 2013, in cash or, at CBD Energy’s
discretion, common shares in the Company. The holders of instalment notes received warrants to purchase 11,793 CBD ordinary
shares at an exercise price of A$15.90, expiring on 12 December 2017. The balance on these notes at June 30, 2013 was $500,000.
In January 2013, the Group entered into an agreement with
a consortium of lenders to establish an unsecured financing facility for the purpose of financing purchases of inventory for the
solar PV division. As of June 30, 2013, the balance drawn under the facility was US$500,000. The facility expires in January 2014
and must be repaid in full by that date. For each US$100,000 drawn down, US$130,000 was to be repaid within 90 days. Since draw
down, an amount of US$150,000 has been repaid. We are currently negotiating with the lenders to establish a repayment schedule
for this loan.
(b) Convertible notes
(i) Convertible notes – series 1 - secured
The parent entity issued 635 9.75% convertible notes for
US$6,350,000 in 30 May 2012 and August 2012, referred to as the Series 1 notes. The maturity date of these notes is 36 months
after the date of issue. The notes are transferable by the note holders and are convertible into ordinary shares of CBD at the
option of the holder. The conversion price is A$15.90.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
18 Interest-bearing loans and borrowings (continued)
(i) Convertible notes – series 1 – secured
(continued)
In February 2013, CBD entered into an amended and restated
agreement with the secured convertible note holders with the following key changes made to the agreement:
|
·
|
CBD was required
to reduce the face value
of the convertible notes
to not more than US$2,500,000
by June 30, 2013 from
the balance of US$6,350,000
through the sale of
non-core assets.
|
|
·
|
If the convertible
notes are not reduced
to less than US$2,500,000,
then the notes are subject
to a redemption premium
equal to 20% of the
principal.
|
|
·
|
CBD has the right
to repay the convertible
note loan balance at
any time without penalty.
|
|
·
|
New “performance
warrants” have been issued, the holders can acquire after June 30, 2013 but prior
to 30 May 2017, up to 153,939 of CBD’s ordinary shares, with an exercise price
of A$8.25 per share.
|
|
·
|
Existing “note
holders’ warrants” totalling 100,055 were re-priced to an exercise price
of A$8.25 per share from A$15.90 per share.
|
|
·
|
The note holders’
warrants and performance
warrants include re-pricing
mechanisms when additional
equity is issued by
CBD.
|
|
·
|
Additional warrants
the noteholders were
entitled to if the notes
were redeemed on maturity
and not converted into
shares were cancelled.
|
|
·
|
Covenants changes
were also implemented.
|
From an accounting point of view, this renegotiation amounted
to an extinguishment of the previously issued notes and the recognition of a new debt which has resulted in an additional expense
of $2,278,000 that has been recognised in the statement of comprehensive income at June 30, 2013.
The face value of these convertible notes had not been reduced
to below US$2,500,000 by June 30, 2013, and as such an event of default exists at June 30, 2013. As a result of this default event,
at maturity the notes are subject to a redemption premium equal to 20% of the principal.
Since June 30, 2013, the Group has sold certain assets and
made part repayment of $1,194,000 (US$1,098,000) on these notes and is in advanced discussions with the holders of the notes to
restructure the key terms, including the cure of current defaults, removal of covenants and deferral of interest payments. At
the date of this report, agreements to implement these changes and cure past defaults on this facility have been drafted and it
is anticipated that on execution of these agreements the maturity date of the notes will revert to 30 May 2015.
The notes are subject to a number of financial and other
covenants and are secured by a first ranking fixed and floating charge over the assets of CBD Energy Ltd. and its subsidiaries,
subject to the priority liens previously granted under the trade finance facility.
(ii) Convertible notes – series 2 unsecured
In December 2011, CBD issued 12-month term convertible notes
to an investor consortium for US$2,000,000 and in March 2012 issued an additional US$400,000 of these notes. In December 2012,
prior to maturity of these notes, CBD issued replacement notes to the note holders, referred to as the “Series 2 Notes”
with a face value equal to US$2,750,000, which includes accrued interest from the issue date of the original notes through to
the issue date of the Series 2 Notes. The Series 2 Notes mature on May 30, 2015 and are convertible at any time by the Note holders,
in whole or in part, at a conversion price of A$15.90 per share. These notes have an interest rate of 9.75%. The company’s
shareholders approved the re-issue of these notes on 26 September 2012. The holders of the Series 2 Notes received warrants to
purchase 43,163 CBD ordinary shares at an exercise price is A$15.90 per share and an expiry date of 30 December 2017. If the notes
are redeemed on maturity and not converted into shares note holders are entitled to additional warrants with a two year period,
which are convertible into ordinary shares of CBD at the same conversion rate and price as the options granted to the note holders.
These notes were in default at June 30, 2013. The Company is currently in discussions with the holders of the notes to cure the
defaults on these notes.

(iii) Convertible notes – series 3 unsecured
In December 2012, CBD issued convertible notes for US$250,000,
referred to as the “Series 3 Notes”. The Series 3 Notes mature on 12 December 2015 and are convertible at any time
in whole or in part at a conversion price of A$15.90 per share. The Series 3 Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 9.75% per
annum. The holders of the Series 3 Notes received warrants to purchase 3,930 CBD ordinary shares at an exercise price of A$0.053
per share. If the notes are redeemed on maturity and not converted into shares note holders are entitled to additional warrants
with a two year period, which are convertible into ordinary shares of CBD at the same conversion rate and price as the options
granted to the note holders. These notes were in default at June 30, 2013. The Company is currently in discussions with the holders
of the notes to cure the defaults on these notes.

(c) Derivatives on convertible note
On issuance of the convertible notes which are on issue
at June 30, 2013, it has been determined that the notes were a financial liability (refer Note 2(y)) and that the conversion options
as well as the associated additional warrants were embedded derivative liabilities.
(i) Conversion option
The convertible notes on issue are denominated in USD and
are convertible at the option of the holder at any time before maturity at a strike price multiplied by a USD exchange rate. The
IFRS Interpretations Committee considered the accounting for a foreign currency convertible bond and stated that a fixed amount
of foreign currency constitutes a variable amount of cash in the entity's functional currency. Therefore, foreign-currency-denominated-convertible
bonds that will be settled by an entity delivering a fixed number of its own equity instruments in exchange for a fixed amount
of foreign currency fail the 'fixed for fixed' requirement. The whole of the convertible bond is classified as a financial liability
under AASB 132 and is subject to AASB 139 for recognition and measurement. The embedded written option's value changes in response
to changes in the values of entity's equity and foreign exchange movements. Therefore, it is not a closely related embedded derivative,
because the risks inherent in the derivative (equity risk) and in the debt host are dissimilar.
(ii) Additional warrants
If the notes are not converted, CBD has to redeem the notes
for cash at maturity. If that is the case, CBD also has an obligation to issue additional warrants to the holder whereby the holder
can exercise the warrant for shares in CBD (same strike price as initial conversion option, same number of shares that could have
been converted under the initial instrument). As CBD does not have control over whether a cash redemption will be made, it has
a contractual obligation to repay cash and issue warrants under AASB 139. As these warrants are in a different functional currency
and as they represent a risk that is not closely linked to the host instrument they have been separated from an accounting standpoint.
The warrants represent a derivative liability which has been measured and recorded separately at the date of issue of the convertible
notes. As a result, these embedded derivatives are separated from the notes and are measured at fair value at the end of each
reporting period through the profit and loss.

(Stated in Australian Dollars)
18 Interest-bearing loans and borrowings (continued)
(iii) Performance warrants
The performance warrants which have been issued to series
1 noteholders as a result of the restructure of these notes are also considered to be derivatives instruments due to the re-pricing
mechanism for these warrants. An adjustment to reduce the strike price for shares subsequently issued at a market price (but below
the strike price) violates the 'fixed for fixed' requirement. This adjustment does not preserve the economic rights of the warrant
holders relative to the ordinary shareholders. This is because the adjustment effectively provides a form of compensation to the
warrant holder if there is a subsequent issuance of shares at a market price that is not provided to the ordinary shareholders.
The Group engaged an independent valuer to assess the fair
value of the derivative on the convertible notes as at June 30, 2013.
The embedded conversion option was valued using a modified
binominal lattice model giving consideration to the dilution impact of shares issued upon conversion. In order to account for
the specific terms of the potential warrants two components of the commonly used (unmodified) binomial model in relation to the
share prices have been modified. In this regard, the share price at each node where new shares are issued has been modified to
account for the effect of dilution. The following key inputs were applied to determine a fair value.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
18 Interest-bearing loans and borrowings (continued)
(d) Fair values
With the exception of the convertible notes, the carrying
amount of the Group’s current and non-current borrowings approximates their fair values. The fair value of the convertible
notes at June 30, 2013 is $10,294,000 compared to a carrying amount of $9,137,000 excluding derivatives at June 30, 2013.
(e) Risk exposures
Details of the Group’s exposure to risks arising from
the current and non-current borrowings relating to interest rate and foreign exchange risk are set out in Note 22.
(f) Assets pledged as security
All assets of the Group have been pledged as security for
current and non-current interest bearing liabilities.
(g) Defaults and breaches
On 30 April 2013, the period of forbearance previously granted
by the secured convertible note holders finished and the company breached certain requirements contained within the convertible
note agreements to maintain interest payments on the notes. At June 30, 2013 and at the date of this report, the company was in
breach of the convertible note agreement relating to the reduction of series 1 to not more than US$2,500,000. At no point have
the note holders called default as a result of this breach. As a result of cross-default provisions contained in the other loan
agreements, the other loans and other convertible notes are also in default at June 30, 2013. Since June 30, 2013, the Group has
sold certain assets and made part repayment of $1,194,000 (US$1,098,000) on the Series 1 notes and is in advanced discussions
with the holders of the notes to restructure the key terms, including the cure of current defaults, removal of covenants and deferral
of interest payments. At the date of this report, agreements to implement these changes and cure past defaults on this facility
have been drafted and it is anticipated that on execution of these agreements the maturity date of the Series 1 notes will revert
to 30 May 2015. The Company is currently in discussions with the holders of the Series 2 and Series 3 notes to cure the defaults
on these notes.
The Company is currently finalising an agreement with the
lenders of the other secured loan of $6,500,000 to restructure the key terms of the loan, including extending the maturity date
of the loan to 30 May 2015, capitalisation of accrued interest and deferral of interest charges and payments until July 2014.
A further agreement to cure past defaults on this facility is also being drafted and it is anticipated that on execution of these
agreements the maturity date of the loan will be 30 May 2015.

(e) Capital management
When managing capital, management's objective is to ensure
the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
Management also aims to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.
The group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share
capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.
Management adjusts the capital structure to take advantage
of favourable costs of capital or high returns on assets. As the market is constantly changing, management may change the amount
of dividends to be paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Management monitor capital through the gearing ratio (net
debt / total capital). The gearing ratios based on continuing operations at June 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

(c) Nature and purpose of reserves
(i) Share options reserve
The share options reserve is used to record the value of
share based payments provided to employees and directors as part of their remuneration and options granted as part of borrowing
agreements. 58,887 options in total were granted during the year as part of borrowing agreements. The reserve also records the
re-pricing of options previously issued (refer Note 18(a)(i).
(ii) Available-for-sale reserve
Changes in the fair value and exchange differences arising
on translation of investments, such as equities, classified as available
-
for
-
sale
financial assets, are recognised in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in a separate reserve within equity. Amounts are
reclassified to profit or loss when the associated assets are sold or impaired.
(iii) Translation reserve
Exchange differences arising on translation of the foreign
controlled entity are recognised in other comprehensive income as described in Note 1(j) and accumulated in a separate reserve
within equity. The cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss when the net investment is disposed of.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
22 Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group's principal financial instruments comprise receivables,
payables, bank overdraft, trade finance, loans, convertible notes, finance leases, available-for-sale investments and cash and
short-term deposits.
Risk exposures and responses
The Group manages its exposure to key financial risks, including
interest rate risk in accordance with the Group's financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support
the delivery of the Group's financial targets whilst protecting future financial security.
The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments
are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk, price risk, and liquidity risk. The Group uses different methods to
measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate
risk and assessments of market forecasts for interest rate. Ageing analyses and monitoring of specific credit allowances are undertaken
to manage credit risk, monitoring levels of exposure to price risk and assessments of market price volatility; liquidity risk
is monitored through the development of future rolling cash flow forecasts.
The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each
of the risks as summarised below.
Primary responsibility for identification and control of
financial risks rests with the Audit Committee under the authority of the Board. The board reviews and agrees policies for managing
each of the risks identified below, including hedging of foreign currency and interest rate risk, credit allowances, and future
cash flow forecast projections.
(a) Interest rate risk
The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from borrowings.
Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose
the group to fair value interest rate risk only if the borrowings are carried at fair value, which is not the Group’s policy.
During 2013 and 2012, the Group’s borrowings at variable
rate were denominated in Australian Dollars.
The Group's exposure to market interest rates relates primarily
to the Group's trade finance facility and bank overdraft. The level of debt is disclosed in Note 18.
At reporting date, the Group had the following mix of financial
assets and liabilities exposed to Australian variable interest rate risk.

The Group's policy is to manage its finance costs using
a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. At June 30, 2013, the Group had borrowings of $17,961,000 (2012: $27,574,000) with 97.4%
being fixed interest rate debt (2012: 90.9%). Fixed rate debt was comprised of trade finance, convertible notes and finance leases.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
22 Financial risk management objectives and policies
(continued)
The Group constantly analyses its interest rate exposure.
Within this analysis consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions, alternative financing, and the mix of
fixed and variable interest rates.
The Group’s fixed rate borrowings comprising the other
loans and the convertible notes are carried at amortised costs. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined
in AASB 7
(IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures)
.
The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest
rate risk exposures in existence at the reporting date.
At June 30, 2013, and at June 30, 2012, if interest rates
had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post tax profit / (losses) and equity would
have been affected as follows:

The movements in profit are due to higher/lower interest
costs from variable rate debt and cash balances. The sensitivity is higher in 2013 than in 2012 for the consolidated entity because
the group held higher levels of interest earning cash balances during the 2012 financial year.
* A 100 basis point increase and a 100 basis point decrease
is used and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
(b) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or
future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group’s exposure
to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Group’s operating activities, borrowings, and
financial assets.
The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the
end of the reporting period, expressed in Australian dollar was as follows:

Foreign currency sensitivity
The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably
possible change in the US dollar and AUD exchange rate, and the Euro and the AUD exchange rate, with all other variables held
constant. The impact on the Group’s profit before tax is due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities.
The Group’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

The group is party to derivative financial instruments in
the normal course of business in order to hedge exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The eco-Kinetics operations
use US dollar denominated borrowings to fund Euro based projects. In order to protect against exchange rate movements, the Group
has entered into forward exchange contracts to purchase US dollars and sell Euros. These contracts are hedging highly probable
repayment of borrowings and interest for the ensuing financial year. The contracts are timed to mature when repayments of borrowings
are scheduled to be made.
The group does not apply hedge accounting. At balance date
no forward contracts are in place. The fair value of forward contracts at June 30, 2012 was $17,000.
(c) Price risk
The Group’s has exposure to price risk related to
its investment in Westinghouse Solar, whose securities are publicly traded on US markets. (Refer to Note 14). These securities
are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investment securities.
At the reporting date, the exposure to listed equity securities
at fair value was $43,000 (2012: $603,000). A decrease of 50% on the market price could have an impact of approximately $22,000
(2012:$301,000) on the income or equity attributable to the Group, depending on whether or not the decline is significant or prolonged.
An increase of 50% in the value of the listed securities would only impact equity, and would not have an effect on profit or loss.
(d) Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Group,
which comprise cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other receivables. The Group's exposure to credit risk arises from potential
default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. Exposure at balance date
is addressed in each applicable note.
The Group does not hold any credit derivatives to offset
its credit exposure. The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties, and as such collateral is not requested
nor is it the Group's policy to securitise its trade and other receivables.

(Stated in Australian Dollars)
22 Financial risk management objectives and policies
(continued)
(e) Liquidity risk
During the year the Group has improved its controls surrounding
receivables. It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification
procedures including an assessment of their independent credit rating, financial position, past experience and industry reputation.
In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing
basis.
There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within
the Group and financial instruments are spread amongst a number of organisations to minimise the risk of default of counterparties.
The Group's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity
of funding and flexibility through the use of variety of equity and debt instruments.
There is a material uncertainty that may cast significant
doubt on whether the Group will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and settle its liabilities
and commitments in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report. Refer to Note 2 (a)(i).
The table below analyses the Group’s financial liabilities
into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non-derivatives financial liabilities.
The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted
cash flows.

Fair value
The methods for estimating fair value are outlined in the
relevant notes to the financial statements.
The Group uses various methods in estimating the fair value
of financial instruments. The methods comprise:
Level 1 – the fair value is calculated using quoted
prices in active markets.
Level 2 – the fair value is estimated using inputs
other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly
(derived from prices).
Level 3 – the fair value is estimated using inputs
for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Quoted market price represents the fair value determined
based on quoted prices on active markets as at the reporting date. The fair value of the listed equity investments are based quoted
on market prices. If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included
in level 3.This is the case for the embedded derivatives for the convertible notes which are valued based on a valuation techniques
which are disclosed in Note 18(d) and for available for sale financial assets disclosed in Note 14(a).

Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
22 Financial risk management objectives and policies
(continued)
In 2013 the Group invested in two entities (Taralga Holding
Nominees 1 Pty Ltd and Taralga Holding Nominees 2 Pty Ltd), the fair value of the 10% ownership interest was valued at $10,000,000
. During the year ended June 30, 2013, the investment was revalued to $10,800,000 (an increase of $800,000) based on an indicative
offer to acquire the asset which was received by the Group.
As indicated in Note 3(vi), the fair value of the investment
was determined based on discounting the cash flows which will be received on exit based on several scenarios of the financial
model for the project and the contractually defined distributions from any sales profits due to CBD on exit. Due to the requirement
for judgement over variables within the financial model to determine future returns and profit achievable on exit, the fair value
calculations were based on a net present value of a risk adjusted, probability weighted average return from different sales Internal
Rate of Return (IRR) expectations. The range of IRR assumptions used in fair value calculations was from 9.0% to 13.0% which are
considered the high and low points between which arm’s length sales transactions of wind farm projects may occur in Australia.
The range of outcomes of the fair value calculations was from $9,500,000 to $10,900,000 using a discount rate of 17.0%. The adopted
value at June 30, 2013 remains within the range determined above.
During the 2012 and 2013 years, the carrying value of other
unlisted investments was impaired based on expectations of the future returns to the Group from these investments. In 2013 the
carrying value of the other unlisted investments was reduced by $18,000 (2012: reduced by $84,000).
In 2012, the Group issued a series of convertible notes
which contained embedded derivatives. An independent valuation was carried out on the value of these derivatives which resulted
in the recognition of a liability of $2,555,000. In 2013 these derivatives were revalued by the independent valuer to $297,000.
The reduction in value was mainly attributable to deterioration in the share price of the Group at June 30, 2013.

Subsequent to the end of the financial year, agreements
have been signed with two major creditors to grant debt forgiveness to CBD totalling $2,800,000. The conditions of one of these
agreements included the assignment of the creditor balance to a director-related entity (TRW Holdings Pty Ltd, an entity controlled
by Mr. Gerry McGowan). The debt forgiveness will become effective once the company has finalised an agreement with TRW Holdings
Pty Ltd to effect the debt forgiveness.

As part of the purchase of eco-Kinetics the Company has
also agreed to contingent consideration to be paid to Edwin Cywinski on achievement of certain performance targets. Mr. Cywinksi
may be entitled to cash and share payments relating to the earn-out. During the year ended June 30, 2012 the Company paid Mr.
Cywinski $nil in relation to this earn-out agreement (2012: $1,286,000).

# Options granted during the year exclude 153,939
options relating to the performance options which are considered derivatives instruments, refer note 18(b)(i)
(d) Option pricing model
The fair value of the equity-settled share options granted
is estimated as at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options
were granted. The fair value is derived from the Black-Scholes model using the closing share price of CBD Energy Limited ordinary
shares on grant date, Australian Government Long-term bond interest rates as published by the Reserve Bank of Australia as a proxy
for the risk-free interest rate, having regard for the bond maturity that is most closely aligned to the period of time remaining
until the options expiry date, and the option exercise prices and quantities as noted above.

29 Events after the balance sheet date
Transactions
On the 22 July 2013, the Group announced that the Merger
Agreement signed with Westinghouse Solar Inc (now named Andalay Solar) has been cancelled.
On 30 August 2013 the Company’s 100% owned subsidiary
Capacitor Technologies Pty Ltd (Captech) was disposed of for $1,788,000 resulting in no material gain or loss being recognised.
The net proceeds realised from the sale have been used to reduce debt.
Financing
On 2 June 2013 the Company launched an unsecured retail
bonds offering in the United Kingdom through a wholly owned subsidiary, Energy Bonds Plc. The bond issue raised £994,500
($1,660,000) and closed on 2 July 2013.
On 20 September 2013, the Company issued 95 additional Series
1 Convertible Notes (refer Note 18(b)(i)) with a total face value of US$950,000.
On 5 October 2013 the Company launched a secured retail
bonds offering in the United Kingdom through a wholly owned subsidiary, Secured Energy Bonds Plc. The bond issue closed on December
10, 2013 having raised gross proceeds of £7,536,000. The funds raised will be used to construct our pipeline of circa 40-45
projects in the UK. The projects have a useful life of approximately 20 years and it is the Company’s current intuition
to retain ownership of completed projects and realize related revenues and profits for The Group over the long term, however,
the Company may decide to sell some or all of the projects in the future.
On 21 November, the Company signed agreements with the holders
of the secured convertible notes and the Other Loan of $6,500,000 to restructure the terms of the notes and loans. The agreements
are currently sitting with the holders for signing. Further agreements to cure past defaults on these facilities and the unsecured
convertible note facility have been drafted and it is anticipated that on execution of these the maturity date of the notes and
loan will be 30 May 2015.
The proposed amendments to the terms of the notes and loan may constitute an extinguishment of the debt
from an accounting point of view which may result in an adjustment to the carrying value of the loan balance at the date of the
change and an expense being recorded in the income statement during the financial year ending June 30, 2014.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Stated in Australian Dollars)
29 Events after the balance sheet date (continued)
Other
On 11 July 2013 the Company entered a voluntary trading
halt on the ASX, followed by a voluntary suspension, pending the announcement of the outcome of discussions with secured lenders
and other creditors. This suspension remains in place and the Company is continuing to progress discussions with financiers and
creditors.
Restructure and defer payments to creditors: CBD has been
successful in negotiating improved terms and reductions in amount payable with some major creditors. To accommodate the Group’s
cash flow requirements, some creditors have agreed to establish payments plan in order to spread repayment. Agreements have been
signed with two major creditors to grant debt forgiveness to CBD totalling $2,800,000. The conditions of one of these agreements
included the assignment of the creditor balance to a director-related entity (TRW Holdings Pty Ltd, an entity controlled by Mr.
Gerry McGowan). The debt forgiveness will become effective once the company has finalised an agreement with TRW Holdings Pty Ltd
to effect the debt forgiveness.
On 5 September 2013 the Company received approval from the
ASX to de-list from ASX. Shareholder approval to de-list was obtained at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on 26 November
2013.
On 21 October 2013 the Company signed an exclusive, worldwide,
long-term license agreement with Westinghouse Electric Corporation to use the WESTINGHOUSE® trademark as the corporate banner
for its solar business.

In December 2013, CBD repaid the full A$463,000 balance
outstanding on the bank overdraft facility which was in place at June 30, 2013.
CBD amended the terms of its convertible debt agreements
which are intended to reduce the instances of events of default in future. These agreements still contain negative covenants
and cross-default provisions that require ongoing compliance by CBD.
CBD entered into waivers with the holders of our convertible
notes during November 2013 and December 2013, to waive events of default arising under, or as a result of a breach of any of the
terms or conditions of the note agreements.

of our convertible debt and the granting of waivers by holders thereof. After giving effect to the January 22, 2014 share issuances,
we had 1,861,474 ordinary shares outstanding as of January 24, 2014.
On February 5, 2014 the Company issued an aggregate of 171,720
ordinary shares. Of these shares: 163,387 ordinary shares were issued at a price per share of A$3.00 in satisfaction of restructuring
fees and interest accrued on certain of the Company’s Convertible Notes through December 31, 2013; and 8,333 ordinary shares
were issued at a deemed price per share of A$3.30, the most recent market closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares
on the Australian Stock Exchange (“ASX”) as of the date of issuance.
On March 13, 2014 we entered into a line of credit agreement
with one of our shareholders, Washington H. Soul Pattinson & Co. Limited. Under this agreement the Company has access to a
line of credit to the maximum amount of $2,000,000. Since signing the agreement, $1,000,000 has been drawn against the facility.
Other
Restructure and defer payments to creditors:
Subsequent to the end of our 2013 fiscal year, CBD finalized
arrangements with and made $1.9 million of scheduled payments as required to realize forgiveness of $2.8 million of trade debt
(refer to Note 29 under the heading “Other”). One of these agreements included the assignment of the creditor balance
to a director-related entity, TRW Holdings Pty Ltd, an entity controlled by our Chairman and Managing Director, Gerard McGowan.
We received a Deed of Release and Forgiveness as of 20 December, 2013 from TRW Holdings Pty Ltd for the full amount of the indebtedness
assigned to it.
Effective upon the close of trading on January 31, 2014,
the Company’s ordinary shares ceased trading on the ASX and the Company completed the voluntary delisting from the ASX pursuant
to requisite approvals of the Company’s shareholders, Board of Directors and the ASX. As a result of the voluntary delisting
from the ASX, the Company is no longer subject to the rules of the ASX, including, without limitation, with respect to reporting
and information requirements and corporate actions requiring shareholder approval.
