Strategy shaped by four major trends –

Are they still relevant?

Growing population

Increasing urbanisation

Government outsourcing

Tech nology

Population
8

Australia’s population is expected to

be 667,000 smaller by FY25 than the

pre-COVID trajectory

Net overseas migration (NOM) has

been the largest contributor to

population growth over the past 10

years, and has also been the hardest

hit by COVID-19

NOM is expected to bounce back by

2022/23

Federal Government committed to

high levels of NOM for continued GDP

growth and skills shortages

High levels of population growth in the

major cities will continue to drive

Government infrastructure and

services expenditure

New macro trends
Bigger Government at all levels

̶Unprecedented levels of fiscal stimulus

̶Infrastructure and services key delivery methods

Decarbonisation of the economy (accelerating)

̶Driven by capital providers (banks and equity)

̶Business way ahead of Government

̶Significant opportunity for Downer

Geopolitical tension

̶Defence spending

̶Sovereign supply capability

̶Localisation

11

Climate resilience and decarbonisation
Downer’s Urban Services strategy delivers environmental and social benefits including a move to

lower capital intensive and lower carbon activities, supporting Downer’s decarbonisation pathway

There are considerable opportunities for Downer that outweigh identified risks, assisting in lower

cost of capital and increased margins

The sale of Mining and Laundries supports our decarbonisation pathway reducing our Scope 1

and 2 emissions by 35% or 206,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent

12

Identified risks:

̶Impacts of increasing energy costs

̶Exposure to extreme weather events

̶Exposure to thermal coal contracts

̶Changing design and construction requirements

(also an opportunity)

Identified opportunities:

̶Existing capabilities to service new and adjacent

markets e.g. hydrogen

̶Existing renewable energy capability and presence

̶Circular economy to diversify product offering

̶Response services to extreme weather events

̶Increased investment in upgrading infrastructure to

be more resilient to extreme weather events

̶Infrastructure for ElectricVehicles

Climate resilience and decarbonisation (cont’d)
Downer has committed to reduce our Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 45-50% by 2035 and

be net zero by 2050. This commitment was registered with the SBTion 21/3/2021

Downer is well positioned to contribute to Australia and New Zealand’s energy transition

Downer’s clear pathway to net zero is aligned to its Urban Service strategy:

̶Divesting high capital, carbon intensive industries

̶Continued focus on energy efficiency and GHG emission reductions

̶Decarbonisation through new technology and fuel switching

̶Decarbonising Downer’s fleet through EVs and alternate fuel vehicles

̶Increasing uptake of renewables

̶Reducing Scope 3 emissions

13

Capital management
Maintenance of BBB Fitch rating

Net Debt managed within 2-2.5x EBITDA

Dividends increasing to 60-70 % of NPATA over time

On-market buy-back ~$400 million

̶the most EPS accretive option for shareholders

No major refinancing required in the next 24 months

Capital and covenant headroom available for growth, including strategic M&A

14

Cash generation
Diversified and resilient earnings from critical service revenues; unable to be turned off

Agile and robust risk systems and business model

Expectation of 90-100% normalised EBITDA cash conversion

No net reduction through the cycle in Free Cash Flow due to exit of Mining and Laundries

15

Immediate priorities
16

FY21 Earnings and Cash performance

̶Strong performance year to date

Sale of remaining non-core assets (Mining Open Cut East and Hospitality)

FY22 – FY24 Business Planning (underway)

Implementation of The Downer Standard

Growth

̶Organic

oIncreased Government spend in Urban Services

oMargin improvement

oInvestment in technology

oBrand development / increased Government focus

̶Acquisition (“bolt on”)

oDefence (Sovereign capability)

oStrengthen value chain in existing markets
