The above statement should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes.

 

Group reorganisation reserve

 

The Group reorganisation reserve initially arose through a series of “common control” transactions related to a Group reorganisation following the acquisition of the Healthscope business by funds advised and managed by TPG (TPG FOF VI SPV, LP.) and Carlyle (Carlyle HSP Partners, LP.) on 12 October 2010.

 

Foreign currency translation reserve

 

The foreign currency translation reserve comprises all foreign exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations where their functional currency is different from the presentation currency of the reporting entity, as well as from the translation of liabilities that hedge the Group’s net investment in a foreign subsidiary.

 

Hedge reserve (cash flow hedging)

 

This reserve comprises the cumulative net change in the fair value of the effective portion of cash flow hedging instruments related to hedged transactions that have not yet occurred.

 

Share based payment reserve

 

The share based payment reserve relates to performance rights granted by the Group to its employees. Further information about share based payments is set out in Note 19.

 

Key accounting policies

 

Foreign operations

 

The assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated at applicable exchange rates at 30 June. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising on translation are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve (FCTR).

 

Foreign currency transactions

 

All foreign currency transactions during the financial year are brought to account using the exchange rate in effect at the date of transaction. Foreign currency monetary items at 30 June are translated at the exchange rate existing at reporting date. Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

 

GENERAL INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

  

General Information

 

Healthscope Pty Ltd (formerly Healthscope Limited) (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (together referred to as the “Group”) is incorporated and domiciled in Australia with trading operations in Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia. The group was a public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (trading under the code ‘HSO’) until the Group was acquired by ANZ Hospital Pty Ltd under a scheme of arrangement on 6 June 2019 and subsequently delisted from Australia Securities Exchange on 11 June 2019. The Group has subsequently divested its South East Asia operations and is in the process of divesting its New Zealand operations (refer to Note 22 for details).

 

The principal place of business of the Group is:

 

Level 1

312 St Kilda Road

Melbourne VIC 3004

Tel: (03) 9926 7500

 

The principal activities of the Group during the financial year ended 30 June 2018 were the provision of healthcare services through the ownership and management of hospitals and the provision of pathology diagnostic services. The company is a for-profit entity.

 

Basis of preparation and consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”) relevant to such financial statements. The consolidated financial statements were prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in the Current Report on Form F-3 and on Form 6-K of Brookfield Business Partners L.P.

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments and assets held for sale that are measured at revalued amounts or fair values.

 

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

 

The financial results and financial position of the Group are expressed in Australian dollars, which is the presentation currency and the functional currency for the consolidated financial statements.

 

The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 11 December 2020.

 

Subsidiaries

 

Subsidiaries are those entities that are controlled by the Group. The financial results and financial position of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control commences until the date control ceases.

 

A list of the Group’s subsidiaries in included in Note 23.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

 

Working capital position

 

The working capital position of the Group as at 30 June 2018 reflects a net current liability position of $209.9 million. The factors that contribute to the net current liability position include:

 

·The project finance debt of $690.0 million related to the development of Northern Beaches Hospital has been re-classified as current (refer to Note 8 for further information); and

 

·The NSW Government Receivable of $376.5 million in relation to Northern Beaches Hospital has been re-classified as current (refer to Note 4 for further information).

 

Upon successful commissioning of Northern Beaches Hospital which occurred in October 2018, the project finance debt has been repaid via the receipt of the NSW Government Receivable and the drawdown of an established corporate debt facility.

 

Excluding the impact of the above project finance debt and related receivable, the working capital is calculated to a net current asset position of $103.6 million.

 

The Group has continued to generate cash flows from operating activities, after servicing debt costs of $283.4 million

 

The parent entity of the Group, ANZ Hospitals Pty Ltd (“ANZ Hospitals”), has access to external funding from its syndicated facility. On 6 June 2019, ANZ Hospitals entered into a Syndicated Facility Agreement for a combined facility amount totalling $2,150 million. The total drawn balance at 30 September 2020 was $1,902 million. Facility A is amortised over 5 years and Facilities B, C and D are repayable five years from inception of the Agreement. If needed, ANZ Hospitals can draw down additional funds from its working capital financing facility which forms part of the combined facility amount to support the Group. At 30 September 2020, $130 million was available under the revolving working capital facilities.

 

The Directors continually monitor the Group’s working capital position including forecast working capital requirements in light of Group’s existing debt facilities and available cash reserves and are satisfied that the Group will be able to pay its debt as and when they fall due for a period of 12 months from the date of this financial report.

 

On 30 July 2018, Healthscope entered into an agreement to divest Asian Pathology operations for $279.0 million. The net cash proceeds of the sale of Asian Pathology operations was used to pay down debt and fund Healthscope’s future capital investments and growth.

  

Rounding of amounts

 

The financial statements are rounded off to the nearest hundred thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.

Key accounting policies

 

Revenue

 

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable by the Group.

 

Rendering of services: Revenue from patients is recognised on the date the services are provided to the patient.

 

Rental income: Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease is added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Management fees: Revenue received from managing hospitals on behalf of Adelaide Community Healthcare Alliance (“ACHA”) is recognised in accordance with the relevant agreement.

 

Operating lease rental expense

 

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Under the terms of an operating lease, the Group does not assume the risks and benefits associated with ownership of the leased asset.

The Group’s performance obligations to patients relate to surgical and non-surgical services provided. The performance obligations are satisfied over a short term (period from admission of the patient to discharge) and the revenue is based on a schedule of rates, which are contractually agreed with funding bodies (per procedure or per day of stay) depending on the type of service provided. Revenue from the provision of services to patients is finalised on completion of medical coding on patient discharge. At period end management accrue revenue for patients who are yet to be discharged from the hospital, based on services provided to the patient at reporting date. There will be no material impact to the revenue recognition on adoption of IFRS 15.

 

Pathology services

 

In relation to the provision of pathology services in New Zealand, Healthscope have contracts with the New Zealand District Health Boards (“DHBs”) to provide Pathology and laboratory testing services in New Zealand. Under these contracts, Healthscope is required to provide Pathology and laboratory testing services to eligible patients and the contract is for a fixed fee over the service period. The performance obligation is satisfied over the contract term, and as a result, the revenue will be recognised on a straight-line basis over the contract term. There will be no material impact to the revenue recognition on adoption of IFRS 15.

 

In respect of pathology operations in Malaysia and Singapore, each pathology service provided to a patient represents a performance obligation. Accordingly, revenue will be recognised for each of these performance obligations upon the provision of results to the doctor or patient. The timing of revenue recognition for each performance obligation will be in line with current practice.

 

Hospital management services

 

Healthscope derives a management fee for the provision of day-to-day management of three private hospitals on behalf of Adelaide Community Healthcare Alliance Incorporated (ACHA). The performance obligations are satisfied over a short-term period (monthly). The revenue recognised is based on the achievement of key performance indicators of the hospitals, which are measured against contractual criteria. There will be no material impact to the revenue recognition on adoption of IFRS 15.

 

IFRS 16 Leases

 

IFRS 16 is effective for the years commencing 1 July 2019 with early adoption permitted. The standard requires operating leases to be recognised on balance sheet.

 

The Group will early adopt IFRS 16 on 6 June 2019 which will have a significant impact on the financial statements.

 

Recognition and Measurement

 

Prior to the adoption of IFRS 16, the Group classified each of its leases (as lessee) at the inception date as either a finance lease or an operating lease. The Group recognised operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and recognised assets and liabilities only to the extent that there was a timing difference between actual lease payments and the expense recognised.

 

Upon adoption of IFRS 16, the Group applied a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. In respect of operating leases, the Group recognised right-of-use assets and lease liabilities (except for short term leases and leases of low-value assets) of hospitals in Australia and pathology laboratories in New Zealand. The nature of expenses related to those leases changed because the Group recognise a depreciation charge for right-of-use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities. In addition, the Group no longer recognise provisions for operating leases that it assesses to be onerous. Instead, the Group will include the payments due under the lease in its lease liability.

 

The right-of-use assets were recognised based on the amount equal to the lease liabilities less any existing onerous leases provisions. Lease liabilities were recognised based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate (IBR) at the date of initial application.

 

Impact of adoption of IFRS 16

 

The Group applied IFRS 16 using the cumulative catch up approach. Therefore a right-of-use asset was recognised at the date of initial application in respect of leases previously classified as operating leases.

 

Set out below, are the assets and liabilities which will be recognised on transition at 6 June 2019:

NOTE 3: INCOME TAXES (continued)

 

Key accounting policies

 

Income tax expense

 

Income tax expense comprises current tax (amounts payable within 12 months) and deferred tax (amounts payable or receivable after 12 months). Tax expense is recognised in the profit or loss, unless it relates to items that have been recognised in equity (as part of comprehensive income). In this instance, the related tax expense is also recognised in equity.

 

Current tax

 

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year. It is calculated using tax rates applicable at the reporting date, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years.

 

Deferred tax

 

Deferred tax is recognised for all taxable temporary differences and is calculated based on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

 

Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the assets can be utilised.

 

Tax consolidation

 

Except for the entities disclosed in footnote 1 in Note 23 to the Financial Statements, the Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities have formed a tax consolidated group. As a result it is taxed as a single entity. The head entity of the tax consolidated group is Healthscope Limited.

 

A tax Sharing Agreement and Tax Funding Agreement were entered into on 6 June 2019. Healthscope Australian resident entities, with the exception of certain entities relating to Northern Beaches Hospital, joined a new tax consolidated group on 6 June 2019 resulting in the transfer of $76.5 million of tax losses (gross) and $141.2 million of capital losses to the new tax head entity ANZ Hospitals Topco Pty Ltd.

 

Critical accounting judgements

 

Current tax liabilities

 

An Australian Tax Office (ATO) audit is ongoing in respect of various matters that relate to the pre-public offering (IPO) period of Healthscope Limited (October 2010 to July 2014), and Healthscope’s utilisation in the post-IPO period of tax losses. All information requested to date as part of the audit has been submitted to the ATO by Healthscope.

 

The Group is regularly subject to information requests and audit activities by the ATO. The outcome of these reviews depends upon several factors which may result in further tax payments or refunds of tax payments already made to the Group. Provisions for potential further payments will be recognised if a present obligation in relation to a taxation liability is assessed as probable and can be reliably estimated and measured.

Key accounting policies

  

Trade and other receivables

 

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial measurement they are measured at amortised cost less any provisions for expected impairment losses or actual impairment losses. Credit losses and recoveries of items previously written off are recognised in the profit or loss.

 

Trade and other payables

 

Trade and other payables are stated at cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year, which are unpaid at the reporting date.

 

Goods and services tax

 

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities (other than receivables and payables) are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). The only exception is where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the relevant taxation authorities. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of asset or as part of the item of expenditure.

Key accounting policies

 

Borrowings

 

Borrowings are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest recognised on an effective yield basis. However, where an effective fair value hedge is in place, borrowings are carried at amortised cost adjusted for the change in fair value of the related interest rate hedge, which is recognised in profit or loss.

 

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant year. Refer to Note 18 for further details of measuring fair value of interest-bearing loans and borrowings.

 

Borrowing costs

 

Borrowing costs include interest on borrowings and the amortisation of premiums relating to borrowings. Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred, unless they relate to qualifying assets. Where such costs relate to qualifying assets, the borrowing costs are capitalised and depreciated over the asset’s expected useful life.

 

Finance leases

 

Under the terms of a finance lease, the Group assumes most of the risks and benefits associated with ownership of the leased asset. Assets subject to finance leases are measured at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The leased asset is amortised on a straight-line basis over the period that benefits are expected to flow from its use. A corresponding liability is established for the lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between finance charges and reduction of the liability.

 

Interest income

 

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Facility Maturity date
-         Facility A1 October 2019
-         Facility A2 October 2019
-         Facility A3 October 2020
-         Facility B October 2019

 

The unsecured syndicated facility was put in place on 1 July 2014 for an initial 3-year term. The facility was amended on 30 October 2015 to increase the limit by $155.0 million through additional tranches of varying maturities of up to 5 years.

 

The syndicated facility is subject to financial undertakings as to gearing and interest cover.

 

As at 30 June 2018 the Group has complied with the above financial covenants and forecast to be able to continually comply with these financial covenants during the course of the 2019 financial year.

 

The syndicated debt facility was fully repaid at Brookfield acquisition date 6 June 2019 by ANZ Hospitals Pty Ltd (the parent of the Company) on behalf of Healthscope Finance Pty Ltd (a subsidiary of the Company).

 

(ii)Project finance

 

Project finance relates to:

 

-Northern Beaches Private Hospital development: 5-year limited recourse syndicated construction facility totalling $690.0 million. This facility is secured against entities of the Group which are not obligors of the syndicated facility. Interest has been fixed via the use of a designated Interest Rate Swap (further details of which are set out in Note 9). The Group fully repaid the project finance debt in 2019 using proceeds from the settlement of NSW Government Receivable and the drawdown of an existing corporate debt facility

 

(iii)Receivables securitisation

 

Under the terms of the receivables securitisation facility, the Group has de-recognised $132.1 million of eligible receivables and used the proceeds for working capital purposes. This facility was renewed during the financial year. The facility now has a maturity date of 28 July 2019. The facility was renewed in 2019 with maturity date of 28 July 2022 and has a maximum cash advance available of $165.0 million.

 

(iv)US Private Placement

 

On 23 March 2016, Healthscope entered into a commitment to issue US$300 million of US Private Placement notes, which were settled on 24 May 2016. The US Private Placement comprises a single tranche of notes with a 10 year tenor, maturing on 26 May 2026. The notes were issued in US dollars at a fixed coupon. The notes were converted back to Australian dollar principal and floating interest rate via a Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap (further details of which are set out in Note 9).

 

The US Private Placement is carried at amortised cost translated at spot rate as at 30 June 2018, adjusted for changes in the fair value of the related interest rate hedge.

 

The principal drawn is US$300.0 million which translates to AU$405.1 million at spot rate as at 30 June 2018. The difference to the carrying amount of $371.8 million represents the fair value adjustment arising from the application of hedge accounting.

 

The US Private placement was fully repaid at Brookfield acquisition date 6 June 2019 by ANZ Hospitals Pty Ltd (the parent of the Company) on behalf of Healthscope Finance Pty Ltd (a subsidiary of the Company).

The cross currency interest rate swap has been used to convert the US Private Placement from US dollars at a fixed coupon, to Australian dollars at floating rate. In effect, Healthscope will pay floating rate on AUD$395.1 million of principal over the term of the arrangement.

 

The cross currency interest rate swap is stated at fair value and has been designated into a series of hedge relationships with the US Private Placement (refer to Note 8).

 

Changes in the fair value of the US Private Placement and Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap attributable to:

 

-Interest rate movements: Are recognised in profit or loss (fair value hedge relationship).
-Currency and credit margin movements: Are recognised in equity (cash flow hedge relationship).

 

Interest rate swap contracts

 

The interest rate swaps have been used to fix the interest exposure associated with the project finance facility for the Northern Beaches Private Hospital development which has a floating interest rate. In effect, Healthscope will pay fixed rate on amounts drawn under the Project Finance facility in accordance with a stepped draw down profile.

 

The interest rate swaps are stated at fair value and have been designated into a hedge relationship with the project finance facility (refer to Note 8).

 

To the extent the hedge relationship is “highly effective”, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap are recognised in equity. Amounts recognised in equity are reclassified into the statement of profit or loss when interest on the project finance facility is recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Ineffectiveness is immediately recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

NOTE 9: DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

 

Key accounting policies

 

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

 

Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at cost, and subsequently are stated at fair value. The method of recognising any remeasurement gain or loss depends on the nature of the item being hedged.

 

For the purposes of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as either cash flow or fair value hedges. On entering into a hedging relationship, the Group formally designates and documents details of the hedge, risk management objective and strategy for entering into the arrangement. The Group applies hedge accounting to hedge relationships that are “highly effective”.

 

·Cash flow hedges are used to hedge exposure to variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability, or a highly probable forecast transaction.

 

Hedge effectiveness is measured by comparing the change in the fair value of the hedged item and the hedging instrument. Any difference represents ineffectiveness. The effective portion of any gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised directly in equity, with any ineffective portion recognised in the statement of profit or loss. For hedged items relating to financial assets or liabilities, amounts recognised in equity are reclassified into the statement of profit or loss when the hedged transaction affects the statement of profit or loss (i.e. when interest income or expense is recognised).

 

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the designation of the hedge relationship is revoked but the hedged forecast transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss at that point remains in equity and is recognised in accordance with the above when the transaction occurs.

 

If the hedged transaction is no longer expected to take place, then the cumulative unrealised gain or loss recognised in equity is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss.

 

·Fair value hedges are used to hedge the variability of changes in the fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm commitment. Any gain or loss on the derivative is recognised directly in the statement of profit or loss.

The Directors believe that the carrying value of property, plant and equipment will be fully recovered through future use and subsequent disposal.

 

Key accounting policies

 

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount, or recognised as a separate asset, 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.

 

The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed to determine if there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, these assets’ recoverable amounts are estimated and, if required, an impairment is recognised in the income statement. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

 

Borrowing costs in relation to the funding of qualifying assets are capitalised and included in the cost of asset. Qualifying assets are assets that take more than 12 months to get ready for their intended use or sale. Where funds are borrowed, generally, a weighted average interest rate is used for the capitalisation of the interest.

 

Capital work in progress

 

Assets in the course of construction are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and, for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy.

 

Depreciation

 

Property, plant and equipment, other than freehold land, are depreciated on a straight-line basis. Freehold land is not depreciated. Depreciation rates are calculated to spread the cost of asset (less any residual value), over its estimated useful life. Residual value is the estimated value of the asset at the end of its useful life.

 

The ranges of depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

 

Buildings 2% to 5%
Plant & equipment 5% to 50%
Leasehold improvements 2% to 100%
Leased assets 4% to 20%

Allocation of goodwill

 

For impairment testing purposes, the Group identifies its cash generating units (CGUs), which is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate cash inflows largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or other groups of assets.

 

The gross carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the Group’s CGUs or group of CGUs are provided below:

 

    Hospitals   Pathology     
    Australia   New Zealand (i)   Total 
    $'m   $'m   $'m 
Goodwill                
2018    1,426.5    171.2    1,597.7 

 

(i)Movement relates to the foreign exchange difference arising from the translation of goodwill from its local currency to the Group’s presentation currency.

 

Key accounting policies

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill on acquisition is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that they might be impaired.

 

Contract management rights

 

Contract management rights acquired by the Group have finite lives. They are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation.

 

Subsequent expenditure

 

Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits of the asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred.

 

Amortisation

 

For intangible assets with finite lives, amortisation is recognised in the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. The estimated useful lives of intangible assets in this category are as follows:

 

Contract management rights  3 to 30 years
Contract development costs  5 to 12 years
Operating rights  3 to 6 years

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

 

NOTE 12: GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES (continued)

 

Impairment of goodwill

 

The Healthscope Group performs an impairment assessment when there is an indication or trigger of a possible impairment of its non-current assets. In addition, at least annually, the Healthscope Group performs an impairment review of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets, regardless of whether an impairment indicator has been identified. The annual review of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets was performed at 30 June 2018.

 

Impairment indicators

 

The results of the annual impairment test performed by management concluded that all continuing CGU’s had sufficient head room as at 30 June 2018 and that no impairment was required.

 

Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying value and fair value less costs to sell hence they have been excluded from the annual impairment assessment.

 

Refer to note 13 for further details.

 

Impairment testing approach

 

Impairment testing compares the carrying value of a CGU with its recoverable amount based on the higher of its value in use (present value of future cash flows) or fair value less costs to sell (net selling price).

 

The Group has prepared value-in-use models for the purpose of impairment testing of continuing CGUs as at 30 June 2018, using five year discounted cash flow models. Cash flows beyond the five year period are extrapolated using a terminal value growth rate. The Group’s impairment testing resulted in no impairment at 30 June 2018.

 

Assumptions

 

The assumptions used for determining the recoverable amount of each CGU are based on past experience and expectations for the future. Cash flow projections are based on management’s forecasts. These forecasts require management estimates to determine income, expenses, working capital movements, capital expenditure, and cash flows for each CGU. The projected cash flows for each individual CGU are discounted using an appropriate discount rate and terminal growth rate unique to each CGU.

 

The following assumptions were used in determining the recoverable amount of each cash generation unit based on value in use as at 30 June 2018.

 

·2018/2019 Board approved profit and loss and cash flow budgets for each cash-generating unit;
  
·Inherent growth factors consistent with current performance for each CGU;
  
  Hospitals
Australia
Pathology
 New Zealand
2018 2.5 – 3.5% 3.0 – 4.0%

 

·Prevailing market based pre-tax discount rates for the Group’s CGUs are as follows:

 

Hospitals 9.3% and Pathology New Zealand 10.2%.

 

·Cash flow projections covering a five-year period and terminal value; and
  
·Terminal growth factors have been set at:

 

Hospitals 2.5% and Pathology New Zealand 2.5%

 

Critical accounting judgements

 

The Group is required to make significant estimates and judgements in determining whether the carrying amount of its assets and / or CGUs has any indication of impairment, in particular in relation to:

 

·key assumptions used in forecasting future cash flows;
  
·discount rates applied to those cash flows; and
  
·the expected long term growth in cash flows.
  

Such estimates and judgements are subject to change as a result of changing economic and operational conditions. Actual cash flows may therefore differ from forecasts and could result in changes in the recognition of impairment charges in future periods.

NOTE 13: ASSETS CLASSIFIED AS HELD FOR SALE

 

Asian Pathology

 

As at 30 June 2018, Healthscope was in the process of selling its pathology operations in Asia, otherwise referred to as the Asian Pathology business. As a result, the Asian Pathology business has been classified as ‘held for sale’ and presented as a ‘discontinued operation’.

 

On 30 July 2018, Healthscope announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell its Asian Pathology operations in Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam for $279.0 million (on a cash-free and debt-free basis, subject to customary completion adjustments) to entities controlled by funds which are managed by TPG Capital Asia, the Asia investment platform within the global alternative asset firm, TPG.

 

The sale was completed on 17 August 2018. The fair value less costs to sell of the business unit was higher than the aggregate carrying amount of the related assets and liabilities. Therefore, no impairment charge was recognised on reclassification of the asset and liabilities as held for sale as at 30 June 2018. A net gain of $166.9 million was recorded on 17 August 2018.

 

Other

 

Healthscope has commenced a sale process for land and buildings relating to two of its hospitals, Como Private Hospital (“Como”) and Cotham Private Hospital (“Cotham”). As a result, the freehold property held by Como and Cotham has been classified as ‘held for sale’. The sale of Cotham was completed on 7 December 2018 and Como was completed on 11 February 2020.

Summary of provisions

 

(i)The current provision for employee entitlements is calculated using probability models of employees reaching vesting dates. The calculations are based on pattern of leave taken and are grossed up for future pay rates, discounted to present value at appropriate discount rates.

 

(ii)The provision for medical malpractice insurance represents the present value of the estimated future outflow of economic benefits that may be required to be made to meet malpractice claims made against the Group.

 

(iii)The provision for onerous lease contracts represents the present value of the future lease payments that the Group is presently obligated to make under non-cancellable onerous operating lease contracts, less revenue expected to be earned on the lease including estimated future sub-lease revenue, where applicable. The increase in provision is due to the recognition of onerous lease provision for Frankston Private Hospital property leases. Refer to Note 2 for further details.

 

Key accounting policies

 

Provisions

 

Provisions are measured at management’s estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation. This estimate is based on “present value” calculation, which involves the application of a discount rate to the expected future cash flows associated with settlement.

 

Employee entitlements

 

Provisions are made for liabilities to employees for annual leave, long service leave and other employee entitlements. Where the payment to employees is expected to take place in 12 months’ time or later, a present value calculation is performed. In this instance, the corporate bond rate is used to discount the liability to its present value.

 

Onerous lease contracts

 

An onerous contract is considered to exist where the Group has a contract under which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it.

NOTE 16: PROVISIONS (continued)

 

Critical accounting judgements

 

Employee entitlements

 

Management judgement is applied in determining the following key assumptions used in the calculation of long service leave at balance date:

 

· Future increases in wages and salaries;
· Future on-cost rates;
·Experience of employee departures and year of service; and
·Appropriate discount rate to reflect long term liabilities at present value.

 

Medical Malpractice Insurance

 

During the year, management performed the regular review of the medical malpractice insurance claims provision across the Group, which is included in the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018 at $6.5 million. The provision represents the present value of the estimated future outflow of economic benefits that may be required to be made to meet malpractice claims made against the Group. The following key assumptions are used in determining the provision:

 

· Appropriate discount rate; and
· Forecast and review of plaintiff’s claim.

 

Onerous lease contracts

 

The onerous lease contract provision has been derived on the basis of the most recent assessment of the likely net unavoidable cost to the end of the contract term. Management have considered the future costs of the contract which can be determined with a high degree of accuracy. However, the future economic benefits expected to be received are based on forecasts. Management consider the liability to be the best estimate of the net unavoidable costs as at 30 June 2018.

 

The following key assumptions are used in determining the provision related to onerous lease contracts:

 

·Appropriate discount rate to reflect the long term liabilities at present value; and
·Ability to sub-lease the premises subject to onerous lease contract.

NOTE 17: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Capital management

 

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to ensure the Group continues as a going concern while providing optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

 

Management reviews the capital structure of the Group on a regular basis. As part of this review, the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital is considered. The Group is not subject to any regulatory capital requirements.

 

The gearing ratio at year-end was as follows:    
   2018 
   $'m 
Borrowings - current   690.4 
Borrowings - non-current   1,224.9 
    1,915.3

Net debt   1,795.8 
      
Equity (ii)   2,345.6 
      
Net debt + equity   4,141.4 
      
Net debt / (Net debt + equity)   43.4%

 

(i)Debt is defined as long and short-term borrowings (excluding derivatives, fair value adjustments associated with hedge accounting and capitalised facility costs), as detailed in Note 8.

 

(ii)Equity includes all capital and reserves of the Group that are managed as capital.

 

Risk management

 

The Group’s principal financial instruments, other than derivatives, comprise cash, short term deposits, and interest bearing liabilities. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group’s operations. The Group also has various other financial assets and liabilities which arise directly from its operations.

 

The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operational, financing and investment activities, principally interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps. The Group does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

 

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, these are discussed below.

 

(a) Interest rate risk

 

The Group has a policy of managing exposure to interest rate fluctuations by the use of fixed rate debt and interest rate swaps. Further details regarding the Group’s approach to managing interest rate risk are discussed in Note 9.

 

The Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note.

 

Interest rate sensitivity analysis

 

With all other variables held constant, a 1% increase in interest rates would reduce profit after tax by $12.1 million reflecting the impact of higher interest rates on variable rate debt. A 1% decrease in interest rates would result in a corresponding $12.1 million increase in profit after tax.

NOTE 17: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

 

(b) Foreign currency risk

 

The Group’s primary currency exposure is to US dollars as a result of issuing US Private Placement debt. In order to hedge this exposure, the Group has entered into cross currency swaps to fix the exchange rate on the USD debt until maturity. The Group agrees to pay a fixed USD amount in exchange for an agreed AUD amount with swap counterparties, and to re-exchange this again at maturity. These swaps are designated to hedge the principal and interest obligations of the US private placement debt.

 

(c) Credit risk

 

The Group’s credit risk arises in relation to cash and cash equivalents, receivables, financial liabilities and liabilities under financial guarantees.

 

Credit risk on financial assets which have been recognised on the balance sheet, is the carrying amount less any allowance for non-recovery. The Group actively manages this exposure by dealing only with counterparties with good credit standing and not having any significant credit risk with any single counterparty.

 

Credit risk associated with financial liabilities arises from the potential failure of counterparties to meet their obligations under the contract or arrangement. The Group’s maximum credit risk exposure in respect of derivative contracts is detailed in the liquidity risk table below.

 

Credit risk includes liabilities under financial guarantees. For financial guarantee contract liabilities, the fair value at initial recognition is determined using a probability weighted discounted cash flow approach. The fair value of financial guarantee contract liabilities has been assessed as nil, as the possibility of an outflow occurring is considered remote. Details of the financial guarantee contracts at balance date are outlined below:

 

Guarantees and indemnities

 

Entities in the Group are called upon to give in the ordinary course of business, guarantees and indemnities in respect of the performance of their contractual and financial obligations.

Key accounting policies

 

Standards in issue but not yet effective

 

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

 

IFRS 9 is effective for the years commencing 1 July 2018. The standard makes changes to the classification and measurement of financial instruments, introduces a new “expected credit loss”. The Group will adopt IFRS 9 from 1 July 2018 which will have no material impact on the financial statements.

 

Classification and Measurement

 

IFRS 9 changed the classification of complex financial instruments, calculation of impairment losses of financial assets, and hedge accounting. The Group is required to assess which business models apply to the financial instruments held by the Group and classify them into the appropriate IFRS 9 categories.

 

On the adoption of IFRS 9, the Group will classify financial assets and liabilities as subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the business model for those assets and on the asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics. There will be no changes in the measurement of the Group financial instruments.

 

Impairment

 

IFRS 9 requires an expected credit loss model to be applied to determine the allowance for trade receivables. The Group has no history of material credit losses and the group’s trade receivable balance is made up of Australian Healthfund Providers and Government organisations, as a result of the adoption to IFRS 9 there will be no material impact on the financial statements.

NOTE 18: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The financial instruments included on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are measured at either fair value or amortised cost. The measurement of this fair value may in some cases be subjective and may depend on the inputs used in the calculations.

 

The Group generally uses external valuations based on market inputs or market values. The different valuation methods are called ‘hierarchies’ and are described below.

 

Level 1: calculated using quoted prices in active markets.
Level 2: 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: estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

 

All financial instruments recognised on the Consolidated Statement of Financial position are recognised at amounts that represent a reasonable approximation of fair value, with the exception of the following borrowings:

 

   2018 
   Carrying
amount
   Fair value 
Borrowings  $'m   $'m 
US Private Placement (AUD)   371.8    397.8 

  

The fair values of the Group’s financial instruments are estimated as follows:

 

Borrowings

 

Fair value is calculated using discounted future cash flow techniques, where estimated cash flows and estimated discount rates are based on market data at balance date, in combination with restatement to foreign exchange rates at balance date (level 2 in fair value hierarchy).

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

Fair value is calculated using discounted future cash flow techniques, where estimated cash flows and estimated discount rates are based on market data at balance date (level 2 in fair value hierarchy). Refer to Note 9 for further details.

 

Promissory note

 

Healthscope is a party to a promissory note receivable in connection with the sale of the Australian Pathology business. The balance is presented as non-current other financial assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

 

The fair value of promissory note is determined using option pricing models where the main assumptions are the probability of default by the specified counterparty from market based information (level 3 in fair value hierarchy).

 

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

 

NOTE 19: SHARE BASED PAYMENTS

 

The Group has an ownership based remuneration strategy which provides certain senior management (including Senior Executives) with the opportunity to receive equity instruments as a component of their short and / or long term remuneration.

 

Performance Rights

 

As at 8 August 2018, Healthscope had 9,044,547 Performance Rights on issue which were granted to 46 holders.

 

Long Term Incentive Plan (LTI Plan) – LTI Performance Rights

 

Healthscope has a Long Term Incentive Plan (LTI Plan) which is available to Senior Executives. In accordance with the provisions of the LTI Plan, Senior Executives may become entitled to LTI Performance Rights, which entitle the holder to acquire one ordinary share in Healthscope on satisfaction of LTI performance conditions.

 

The LTI Performance Rights are granted at no cost to the participants as they form part of their remuneration.

 

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding LTI Performance Rights is reflected in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

 

EIP Performance Rights

 

To ensure continuity of knowledge and health sector expertise across the senior executive team, Healthscope has granted performance rights to certain senior executives subject to two and three year service conditions and the terms of the EIP. Further details relating to these rights are disclosed in the table below.

 

Deferred Short Term Incentives (Deferred STI) – STI Performance Rights

 

In 2016, Healthscope introduced a deferred equity component for senior management (including Senior Executives) entitled to STI reward. This new component results in between 30-50% of any relevant STI award being granted as STI Performance Rights. The STI Performance Rights entitle the holder to acquire one ordinary share in Healthscope at the completion of a two year deferral period, subject to continued employment. There are no further performance measures.

 

STI Performance Rights are granted at no cost and no payment is required to be made in order for the STI Performance Rights to vest and for participants to receive shares. Any STI Performance Rights that do not vest will automatically lapse.

 

The actual number of STI Performance Rights related to 2018 was estimated based on the share price of the Company as at 30 June 2018 ($2.21), 1,398,715 STI Performance Rights would be issued.

 

The actual number of STI Performance Rights issued to senior management in relation to FY18 will be reported to shareholders in the Company’s 2018 Financial Report.

There were no other transactions affecting Performance Rights held during the current or prior financial year.

 

Fair value of LTI Performance Rights

 

The fair value of LTI Performance Rights is measured at grant date and is recognised as an employee expense (with a corresponding increase in equity) over three years irrespective of whether the LTI Performance Rights vest to the holder. A reversal of the expense is only recognised in the event the instruments lapse due to cessation of employment within the three year period.

 

The fair value of the LTI Performance Rights is determined by an external valuer and takes into account the terms and conditions upon which they were granted. The valuation was conducted using a Monte Carlo simulation for the TSR performance hurdle and a Binomial tree valuation model for the EPS performance hurdle.

 

The assumptions underlying the valuation of the LTI Performance Rights are:

 

Inputs into the 2018 performance right pricing model
Grant date 19 October 2017 10 November 2017 31 December 2017 29 June 2018

All the share based payments were vested on 11 June 2019 following the delisting of the Group from Australia Securities Exchange on 11 June 2019.

 

Key accounting policies

 

The rights to share granted to employees under the terms of the plans are measured at fair value. The fair value is recognised as an employee expense over the period that employees become unconditionally entitled to the rights. There is a corresponding increase in equity, which is reflected in the share based payments reserve.

 

The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of rights taken up, once related service and other non-market conditions are met.

Sale of Asian Pathology operations

 

On 30 July 2018, Healthscope entered into an agreement to sell its Asian Pathology operations in Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam for $279 million (on a cash-free and debt-free basis, subject to customary completion adjustments). On 17 August 2018, Healthscope announced that it had completed the sale of its Asian Pathology operations in Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam to entities controlled by funds which are managed by TPG Capital Asia. The consideration of $279.0 million was received in cash. As the sale proceeds (including costs to sell) were higher than the fair value of the related assets and liabilities, a net gain of $166.9 million was recorded. A net profit after tax of $2.8 million is attributable to the Asian Pathology operations which reflects its trading result in the period from 1 July 2018 to 17 August 2018, being the date the sale was completed.

 

Sale of Como and Cotham Private Hospital

The sale price was NZD$575 million and was approved by the New Zealand’s Overseas Investment Office on 18 November 2020, the completion and settlement of this transaction happened on 30 November 2020. Foreign currency swaps were entered into on August 2020 for a face value of approximately AUD$522 million to hedge the currency risk of the New Zealand denominated settlement.

 

Commissioning of Northern Beaches Hospital

 

In October 2018, the Northern Beaches Hospital was successfully commissioned and the project finance debt has been repaid via the receipt of the NSW Government Receivable and the drawdown of an established corporate debt facility.

 

COVID-19

 

The COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent quarantine measures imposed by the Australian and other governments as well as the travel and trade restrictions imposed by Australia and other countries in early 2020 have caused disruption to businesses and economic activity. This has had an impact on the Healthscope Australian operations.

 

A first wave of COVID-19 infections emerged in Australia early 2020. Healthscope had to stop its non-urgent elective surgery procedures in Australia from 1 April 2020 due to mandatory government restrictions to make all private hospital capacity available for responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, Healthscope entered into agreements with the State Governments in April 2020 for Private Hospital Funding to facilitate a successful and coordinated response by the public and private hospital sectors to the COVID-19 pandemic. Under these agreements, Healthscope is entitled government funding to cover certain costs in return for compliance with certain conditions relating to its operating activities. From 28 April 2020, the State Governments allowed a gradual ease on restrictions on elective surgery, allowing the Group to restart scheduling elective surgery procedures.

 

A second wave of COVID-19 infections emerged in the State of Victoria during June 2020. Elective surgery restrictions were re-imposed in early July 2020 in Victoria in response to the outbreak which has affected the volume and type of elective surgery procedures undertaken at Victoria hospitals. As case numbers of COVID-19 reduced in September, the Victoria Premier outlined a progressive roadmap to ‘COVID-19 Normal” out of restrictions. Non-urgent elective surgeries ramped up across Victoria’s regional public and private hospitals from 17 September 2020 and in metropolitan Melbourne from late September 2020, back to normal levels late November 2020.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Healthscope Pty Ltd (formerly Healthscope Limited).

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Healthscope Pty Ltd (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2018 and the related consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditors' Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Group's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Basis for Qualified Opinion

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018

 

GENERAL INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

 

General information

 

This financial report for the half year ended 31 December 2018 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the international Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The half-year financial report was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in the Current Report on Form F-3 and on Form 6-K of Brookfield Business Partners L.P.

 

This half-year financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report of Healthscope Pty Ltd (formerly Healthscope Limited) (the “Company”) for the year ended 30 June 2018.

 

Healthscope Pty Ltd and its controlled entities (together referred to as the “Group”) is incorporated and domiciled in Australia with trading operations in Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia. The group was a public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (trading under the code ‘HSO’) until the Group was acquired by ANZ Hospital Pty Ltd under a scheme of arrangement on 6 June 2019 and subsequently delisted from Australia Securities Exchange on 11 June 2019. The Group has subsequently divested its South East Asia operations and is in the process of divesting its New Zealand operations (refer to Note 12 for details). The principal place of business of the Group is:

 

Level 1

312 St Kilda Road

Melbourne VIC 3004

Tel: (03) 9926 7500

 

The principal activities of the Group during the half-year ended 31 December 2018 were the provision of healthcare services through the ownership and management of hospitals and the provision of pathology diagnostic services.

 

Basis of preparation and consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values.

 

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

 

The financial results and financial position of the Group are expressed in Australian dollars, which is the presentation currency and the functional currency for the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half-year financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the consolidated financial report for Healthscope Pty Ltd for the financial year ended 30 June 2018.

 

Adoption of new and revised Standards and Interpretations]

 

During the current financial period, all mandatory new and revised standards, including IFRS 15 and IFRS 9 (refer below), and amendments thereof and Interpretations were adopted which had no material impact.

 

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

 

The Group has adopted IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ from 1 July 2018, using the modified retrospective method of adoption. The adoption had no material impact.

 

Hospitals Australia

 

Hospital services

 

The Group’s performance obligations to patients relate to surgical and non-surgical services provided. The performance obligations are satisfied over a short term (period from admission of the patient to discharge) and the revenue is based on a schedule of rates, which are contractually agreed with funding bodies (per procedure or per day of stay) depending on the type of service provided. Revenue from the provision of services to patients is finalised on completion of medical coding on patient discharge. At period end management accrue revenue for patients who are yet to be discharged the hospital, based on services provided to the patient at reporting date. There has been no material impact to the revenue recognition on adoption of IFRS 15.

FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018

 

Pathology services

 

Healthscope have contracts with the New Zealand District Health Boards (“DHBs”) to provide Pathology and laboratory testing services in New Zealand. Under these contracts, Healthscope is required to provide Pathology and laboratory testing services to eligible patients and the contract is for a fixed fee over the service period. The performance obligation is satisfied over the contract term, and as a result, the revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the contract term. There has been no material impact to the revenue recognition on adoption of IFRS 15.

 

Management fee revenue

 

Healthscope derives a management fee for the provision of day-to-day management of three private hospitals on behalf of Adelaide Community Healthcare Alliance Incorporated (ACHA). The performance obligations are satisfied over a short-term period (monthly). The revenue recognised is based on the achievement of key performance indicators of the hospitals, which are measured against contractual criteria. There has been no material impact to the revenue recognition on adoption of IFRS 15.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018

 

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

 

The Group has adopted IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ from 1 July 2018.

 

Classification and Measurement

 

IFRS 9 changed the classification of complex financial instruments, calculation of impairment losses of financial assets, and hedge accounting. The Group assessed which business models apply to the financial instruments held by the Group and have classified them into the appropriate IFRS 9 categories.

 

On the adoption of IFRS 9, the Group classified financial assets and liabilities as subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the business model for those assets and on the asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics. There were no changes in the measurement of the Group financial instruments.

 

Hedge Accounting

 

The revision to hedge accounting aligns the hedge accounting requirements with risk management activities. The group confirms the Group’s existing hedges qualify as effective hedges upon adoption of IFRS 9 and has determined there is no material impact on the financial statements.

 

Impairment

 

IFRS 9 requires an expected credit loss model to be applied to determine the allowance for trade receivables. The Group has no history of material credit losses and the group’s trade receivable balance is made up of Australian Healthfund Providers and Government organisations, as a result of the adoption to IFRS 9 there has been no material impact no material impact on the financial statements.

 

Effects of Standards that are issued but not yet effective

 

IFRS 16 Leases

 

IFRS 16 is effective for the years commencing 1 July 2019 with early adoption permitted. The standard requires operating leases to be recognised on balance sheet. The Group will early adopt IFRS 16 on 6 June 2019 which will have a significant impact on the financial statements.

 

Recognition and Measurement

 

Prior to the adoption of IFRS 16, the Group classified each of its leases (as lessee) at the inception date as either a finance lease or an operating lease. The Group recognised operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and recognised assets and liabilities only to the extent that there was a timing difference between actual lease payments and the expense recognised.

 

Upon adoption of IFRS 16, the Group applied a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. In respect of operating leases, the Group recognised right-of-use assets and lease liabilities (except for short term leases and leases of low-value assets) of hospitals in Australia and pathology laboratories in New Zealand. The nature of expenses related to those leases changed because the Group recognise a depreciation charge for right-of-use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities. In addition, the Group no longer recognise provisions for operating leases that it assesses to be onerous. Instead, the Group will include the payments due under the lease in its lease liability.

 

The right-of-use assets were recognised based on the amount equal to the lease liabilities less any existing onerous leases provisions. Lease liabilities were recognised based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate (IBR) at the date of initial application.

 

Impact of adoption of IFRS 16

 

The Group applied IFRS 16 using the cumulative catch up approach. Therefore a right-of-use asset was recognised at the date of initial application in respect of leases previously classified as operating leases.

 

Set out below, are the assets and liabilities which will be recognised on transition at 6 June 2019:

ATO Review

 

An Australian Tax Office (ATO) audit is ongoing in respect of various matters that relate to the pre-public offering (IPO) period of Healthscope Limited (October 2010 to July 2014), and Healthscope’s utilisation in the post-IPO period of tax losses. All information requested to date as part of the audit has been submitted to the ATO by Healthscope.

 

The Group is regularly subject to information requests and audit activities by the ATO. The outcome of these reviews depends upon several factors which may result in further tax payments or refunds of tax payments already made to the Group. Provisions for potential further payments will be recognised if a present obligation in relation to a taxation liability is assessed as probable and can be reliably estimated and measured.

Working capital position

 

The working capital position of the Group as at 31 December 2018 reflects a net current liability position of $466.8 million (30 June 2018: $209.9 million net current liability position). This has primarily been caused by a reclassification of bank loans of $415.0 million from non-current to current as well as the receipt in December 2018 of the receivable from the NSW State Government in relation to the Northern Beaches Hospital which was classified as a current asset at 30 June 2018, with a value of $376.5m. The Group has subsequently refinance the current bank loans prior to their expiry (refer to note 12).

 

The Group has continued to generate cash flows from operating activities, after servicing debt costs of $157.1 million (30 June 2018: $283.4 million).

 

The parent entity of the Group, ANZ Hospitals Pty Ltd (“ANZ Hospitals”), has access to external funding from its syndicated facility. On 6 June 2019, ANZ Hospitals entered into a Syndicated Facility Agreement for a combined facility amount totalling $2,150 million. The total drawn balance at 30 September 2020 was $1,902 million. Facility A is amortised over 5 years and Facilities B, C and D are repayable five years from inception of the Agreement. If needed, ANZ Hospitals can draw down additional funds from its working capital financing facility which forms part of the combined facility amount to support the Group. At 30 September 2020, $130 million was available under the revolving working capital facilities.

 

The Directors continually monitor the Group’s working capital position including forecast working capital requirements in light of the Group’s existing debt facilities and available cash reserves and are satisfied that the Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due for a period of 12 months from the date of this financial report.

 

Rounding of amounts

 

The financial statements are rounded to the nearest hundred thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.

NOTE 1: DIVIDENDS

 

During the current reporting period, Healthscope Pty Ltd paid a final dividend of 3.5 cents per share in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2018 that resulted in a dividend payment of $60.9 million.

 

On 13 February 2019, the Directors resolved to pay an interim dividend of 3.5 cents (31 December 2017: 3.5 cents) in respect of the financial year ending 30 June 2019 that will result in a dividend payment of approximately $59.6 million (31 December 2017: $60.9 million). The interim dividend has not been included as a liability in these financial statements, because the obligation did not arise until after 31 December 2018.

 

NOTE 2: SEGMENT INFORMATION

NOTE 9: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The financial instruments presented in the condensed statement of financial position are measured at either fair value or amortised cost. The measurement of this fair value may in some cases be subjective and may depend on the inputs used in the calculations.

 

The Group generally uses external valuations based on market inputs or market values. The different valuation methods are called ‘hierarchies’ and are described below.

 

Level 1: calculated using quoted prices in active markets.

 

Level 2: 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: estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

 

All financial instruments presented in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position are recognised at amounts that represent a reasonable approximation of fair value, with the exception of the following borrowings:

 

   31 Dec 2018   30 Jun 2018 
   Carrying amount   Fair value   Carrying amount   Fair value 
   $'m   $'m   $'m   $'m 
Borrowings                
US Private Placement (AUD)   400.3    421.6    371.8    397.8 

 

The fair value of the Group’s financial instruments is estimated as follows:

 

Borrowings

 

Fair value is calculated using discounted future cash flow techniques, where estimated cash flows and estimated discount rates are based on market data at balance date, in combination with remeasurement to foreign exchange rates at balance date (level 2 in fair value hierarchy).

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

Fair value is calculated using discounted future cash flow techniques, where estimated cash flows and estimated discount rates are based on market data at balance date (level 2 in fair value hierarchy).

 

Other financial assets (promissory note)

 

The fair value of the promissory note is determined using option pricing models where the main assumptions are the probability of default by the specified counterparty from market based information (level 3 in fair value hierarchy).

 

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the period.

Sale of Como

 

Healthscope has commenced a sale process for land and buildings relating to one of its hospitals, Como Private Hospital (“Como”). As a result, the freehold property held by Como has been classified as ‘held for sale’. The sale of Como was completed on 11 February 2020.

 

Sale of New Zealand pathology business

 

On the 4 August 2020, Healthscope has entered into a binding agreement to sell its New Zealand pathology business, Asia Pacific Healthcare Group (APHG), to the NZ Super Fund and Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board (Ontario Teachers’) who will each take a 50 percent stake. The sale price was NZD$575 million and was approved by the New Zealand’s Overseas Investment Office on 18 November 2020.The completion and settlement occurred on 30 November 2020. Foreign currency swaps were entered into on August 2020 for a face value of approximately AUD$522 million to hedge the currency risk of the New Zealand denominated settlement.

 

COVID-19

 

The COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent quarantine measures imposed by the Australian and other governments as well as the travel and trade restrictions imposed by Australia and other countries in early 2020 have caused disruption to businesses and economic activity. This has had an impact on the Healthscope Australian operations.

 

A first wave of COVID-19 infections emerged in Australia early 2020. Healthscope had to stop its non-urgent elective surgery procedures in Australia from 1 April 2020 due to mandatory government restrictions to make all private hospital capacity available for responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, Healthscope entered into agreements with the State Governments in April 2020 for Private Hospital Funding to facilitate a successful and coordinated response by the public and private hospital sectors to the COVID-19 pandemic. Under these agreements, Healthscope is entitled government funding to cover certain costs in return for compliance with certain conditions relating to its operating activities. From 28 April 2020, the State Governments allowed a gradual ease on restrictions on elective surgery, allowing the Group to restart scheduling elective surgery procedures.

 

A second wave of COVID-19 infections emerged in the State of Victoria during June 2020. Elective surgery restrictions were re-imposed in early July 2020 in Victoria in response to the outbreak which has affected the volume and type of elective surgery procedures undertaken at Victoria hospitals. As case numbers of COVID-19 reduced in September, the Victoria Premier outlined a progressive roadmap to ‘COVID-19 Normal” out of restrictions. Non-urgent elective surgeries ramped up across Victoria’s regional public and private hospitals from 17 September 2020 and in metropolitan Melbourne from late September 2020, back to normal levels late November 2020.

·On June 6, 2019, the partnership, together with institutional partners, completed the acquisition of 100% of Healthscope Limited (“Healthscope”) for $4.1 billion. The acquisition was funded with approximately $1.4 billion in long-term debt, $1.7 billion from the sale and leaseback of 22 wholly owned freehold hospital properties and $1.0 billion in cash. The partnership acquired its share of Healthscope for consideration which comprised $0.3 billion of cash, approximately $0.5 billion of proceeds from the sale and leaseback and approximately $0.4 billion of long-term debt financing.

 

The Transactions are included in the partnership’s unaudited consolidated results as at and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. An unaudited pro forma statement of operating results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 has been prepared to illustrate the effects of the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2019.

 

All financial data in the unaudited pro forma financial statement is presented in U.S. dollars and has been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The unaudited pro forma financial statement has been derived by the application of pro forma adjustments to the historical financial information of the partnership and the Transactions.

 

The unaudited pro forma financial statement is derived from the partnership’s audited financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements of the partnership as at September 30, 2020 and for the three and nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 and the audited financial statements of the partnership as at December 31, 2019 and 2018 and for each of the years in the three years ended December 31, 2019. The unaudited pro forma financial statement is based on estimates, accounting judgments and currently available information and assumptions that management believes are reasonable. The notes to the unaudited pro forma financial statement provide a detailed discussion of how such adjustments were derived and presented in the unaudited pro forma financial statement. The unaudited pro forma financial statement has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the partnership had the Transactions for which the partnership is giving pro forma effect actually occurred on the dates or for the periods indicated, nor is such unaudited pro forma financial information necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period. A number of factors may affect the partnership’s results.

(a)Clarios contributes to a defined benefit plan. The accounting for retirement benefit plans differs under U.S. GAAP and IFRS and results in differences in the measurement of net benefit expense and actuarial gains and losses. If the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period, the direct costs for the period January 1, 2019 to April 30, 2019 would have increased by $9 million.

 

(b) As a part of the acquisition, fair value adjustments applied to technology and customer relationships resulted in an increase to the carrying value of intangible assets of $7.0 billion with an average useful life of 10-15 years. If the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period, the depreciation expense for the period January 1, 2019 to April 30, 2019 would have increased by $129 million. Amortization expense is calculated on a straight-line basis over the respective estimated weighted-average lives of all intangible assets. A decrease to direct costs of $4 million for the period January 1, 2019 to April 30, 2019 to reflect the impact of gains and losses of derivative instruments that were settled as part of the acquisition.

 

(c)Borrowings due to the acquisition reflect a net increase in total debt of $9.8 billion, consisting of:
i.an increase of $10.2 billion aggregate principal amount of long-term debt relating to the acquisition of Clarios with a weighted average interest rate of 6.0% and maturity dates ranging from 2026 to 2027; and
ii.a decrease of $309 million relating to the incurrence of debt issuance costs which have been capitalized and will be recognized as non-cash interest expense periodically over the estimated life of the related long-term debt.

 

Adjustments to interest expense to reflect a net increase in the amount of $248 million for the period January 1, 2019 to April 30, 2019 based on an assumed weighted-average interest rate of approximately 6.0% incurred upon acquisition, non-cash amortization in capitalized borrowing costs and commitment fees to be paid on certain credit facilities at a weighted average rate of approximately 45 basis points per annum; offset in part by an immaterial decrease in historical interest expense due to the repayment of debt and impact of gains and losses of derivative instruments that have been assumed to be settled as part of the acquisition.

 

(d)Equity accounted investments reflects an increase of $404 million (of which $182 million is on an amortizable basis over 12 years) to the carrying value of Clarios equity accounted investments to adjust for fair value increments pertaining to the acquisition. If the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period, amortization related to these fair value adjustments accounted for within equity accounted income, net for the period January 1, 2019 to April 30, 2019 would have decreased by $4 million.

 

 

 

 

(e)Where applicable, the income tax expense for the pro forma adjustments related to Clarios is based on a 28% composite tax rate on the pro forma non-US earnings. The pro forma US earnings includes income attributable to flow through entities and therefore no tax expense is recorded.
