Lost time injuries (LTI) are defined as injuries that cause the injured person (employee or contractor) to be unfit to perform any work duties for one whole
day or shift, or more, after the shift on which the injury occurred, and any injury that results, directly or indirectly, in the death of the person. The LTIFR is
the number of LTI per million hours worked. Total Recordable Injuries (TRI) are the number of LTI plus medically treated injuries (MTI) for employees and
contractors. TRIFR is the number of TRI per million hours worked. LTIFR and TRIFR have been calculated on a 12-month rolling period.
Group financial performance
The financial result for the six months to 31 December 2025 demonstrates ongoing momentum across the business, with
delivery of bottom line improvement driven by stronger contract delivery, a disciplined focus on high-quality reve n u e ,
effective cost management and cash backed earnings. Strategic wins have expanded work-in-hand and positioned the
business for medium-term growth. Ongoing improvement programs are enhancing margins and reducing cost-to- s e r v e .
Supported by a strong balance sheet, the Group retains the capacity to invest and pursue strategic growth
opportunities.

Commentary on Group earnings, work-in-hand, revenue and segment performance are discussed below.
Earnings
In line with Downer’s business transformation program, we have strategically prioritised the quality of earnings and
tightened tendering risk guardrails to align the business with its core competencies aiming to achieve sustainable and
acceptable risk return outcomes. In 1H26 Downer also completed certain previously identified underperforming contracts
6Half Year Report 2026 | Downer EDI Limited
1
Normalised underlying cash conversion has been adjusted to remove the cash outflows associated with FY25 and 1H26 ISI (not in underlying EBITDA) totalling
$13.9m (1H25 equivalent of $43.8m). Cash conversion is calculated as operating cash flow excluding tax and interest, divided by underlying EBITDA.
including the low margin projects in water and a power maintenance contract which has not been renewed. Further, our
portfolio simplification program has improved margin in the period following the divestment of non-core businesses
typically with low margin revenue or a risk profile not aligned with our risk appetite.
Earnings improvement was achieved across all segments resulting in a 11.2% increase in underlying EBITA to $227.1 million,
up 18.4% on a pro forma basis; and a 7.0% increase in underlying NPATA to $136.1 million, or up 18.3% on a pro forma basis.
This increase in earnings was primarily supported by the ongoing Energy & Utilities business turnaround and a strong
performance in the Facilities business following the divestment of lower margin cleaning and catering businesses,
together with the continuing benefits of the cost out program and the completion, renegotiation and performance
improvement of underperforming contracts.
nEnergy & Utilities: Driven by improved Power Projects business performance in Australia from the delivery of
transmission lines and substations, offset by lower NBN volumes and reset of the Telecommunications business
following consolidation of Australian providers, as well as the impact of the demobilisation and transfer of Victorian
Power Maintenance Contract in July 2025. Efficiencies were also realised from operating model changes, as well as
the closure of underperforming sites in the prior year. Margin enhancements were also driven by a back to basics
focus on disciplined cost management and project delivery.
nTransport: Profitability was uplifted by improved contract delivery and disciplined cost management. Strong progress was
made in the period on delivery of the Queensland Train Manufacturing Project (QTMP). Enhanced contract delivery and
solid project performance within New Zealand was observed despite lower activity levels in some areas. Australian Road
Services volumes remain impacted by soft Australian Transport agency spend.
nFacilities: Earnings growth driven by ongoing strong performance across Government & Integrated Facilities Management
(IFM) and Defence Estate Maintenance businesses. This was as a result of performance improvement programs driving
increased profitability on Defence contracts, supported by transformation program initiatives, including service delivery
model enhancements.
nCorporate: ongoing cost reductions in overheads leading to a more efficient operating model, particularly in
technology and shared services support, and reduction in insurance costs were partially offset by cost inflation.
Work-in-hand
Work-in-hand increased 8.9% to $38.2 billion at 31 December 2025 driven by a number of strategic contract awards
positioning for future growth. These awards included the $3.05 billion Australian Defence Property and Asset Services
(PAS) contract, $750m Chevron maintenance and support contract, Urban Utilities water and wastewater contract,
$220m Defence Professional Service contract, and a number of new contract wins, extensions and renewals across
Power Projects, Energy and Industrial, Telco, Housing and Rail.
As a result, Energy & Utilities and Facilities work-in-hand has increased by 21.6% and 20.2% respectively. Our Transport
work-in-hand declined by 3.5% during the half reflecting the delivery of large contracts (for example QTMP, CRL, Auckland
Airport) and the timing of award of preferred positions, which are not yet included in total work-in-hand (namely the
NZD$870 million New Zealand State Highway Contracts). Our work-in-hand is diversified by industry, is approximately 90%
government related and comprises approximately 90% services.
Revenue
Pro forma revenue of $4.9 billion, adjusted for divestments and held for sale assets and including revenue from joint
ventures and associates, decreased by 4.9%. On a statutory basis, which includes the reduction in revenue due to
divestments made during the period, total revenue at $4.9 billion decreased 6.9%. Revenue was negatively impacted by
$41 million due to translation of New Zealand Dollar (NZD) denominated revenue that depreciated against the Australian
Dollar (AUD) in the period. Additional factors impacting revenue for the period include:
nTransport: Transport experienced softer revenue performance down 4.0% on a pro forma basis in the half. NZ Road Services
continued to deliver good contract performance albeit from lower activity levels, with a number of larger projects nearing
completion (e.g. City Rail Link (CRL)). Australian Road Services volumes continue to be impacted by reduced Transport
Agency spend. Hawkins disciplined project selection through the repositioning of Hawkins’ risk appetite has reduced its
revenue contribution. This was partially offset by growth in Rail & Transit Services (ex Keolis Downer) through the strong
delivery on the Queensland Train Manufacturing Project (QTMP) as well as growth within the Specialised Pavement Products,
and Pavement Maintenance businesses within Transport and Infrastructure.
nEnergy & Utilities: Energy & Utilities experienced lower revenue in the first half down 11.5% on a pro forma basis. Good
growth was experienced within the Power Projects business driven by transmission line and substation projects
7Half Year Report 2026 | Downer EDI Limited
supporting the energy transition. However this was more than offset by weaker demand for Telecommunication
services in Australia, transition from the completion of existing water projects and mobilisation of a number of new
water projects which are expected to ramp up in future periods, as well as the impact of exited underperforming and
loss-making contracts and sites that completed in the prior year.
nFacilities: The increase in pro forma revenue of 2.4% was driven by increased volumes within Government & Integrated
Facilities Management (IFM) from the mobilisation and ramp up of the Homes NSW public housing portfolio (RAPM) and
the facilities maintenance services for Department of Home Affairs. The business also experienced strong volumes in
Defence Estate Maintenance for the half.

Transport underlying EBITA benefited from the strategic reset and initiatives delivered over the past two years, including
the tightening of tendering risk guardrails, continued focus and improvement of contract delivery disciplines, targeted
project selection and operating model changes including cost management initiatives. This has resulted in margin
uplifts in 1H26, with underlying EBITA increasing 3.0% to $132.6 million.
On an underlying basis, revenue is lower than the prior comparative period due to softer activity levels and divestments,
including the disposal of Keolis Downer in the current period. Strong delivery continued on projects, including the Queensland
Train Manufacturing Program (QTMP) and the Auckland Airport Domestic Jet Terminal, however this was more than offset by
lower contributions from New Zealand projects (as projects such as CRL approach completion), the timing of opportunities
particularly within New Zealand, disciplined project selection for the Hawkins business which resulted in reduced revenue as well
as softer conditions within New Zealand and Australia Road Services in some areas.
On 1 July 2025, an agreement was reached with Keolis Australia Pty Ltd to divest the Group's 49% interest in Keolis Downer Pty Ltd
(Keolis Downer). The sale was completed on 1 December 2025. The Group has reported a net pre-tax profit of $1.3 million in
relation to this divestment. Refer to Divestments and exit costs during the reporting period and Note E2 below. The Keolis
Downer underlying EBITA contribution to Transport segment decreased during the period, from $14.4 million to $3.4 million.
Transport pro forma Revenue and EBITA is comparable to the underlying Revenue and EBITA, after adjusting for the
contribution of the Keolis Downer investment.

The turnaround of the Energy & Utilities business continued in 1H26 with further uplift in profitability following the renewed
focus on project delivery, particularly in Power and Water, and disciplined cost management across the business.
Underlying EBITA increased by $9.2 million or 17.5% on 1H25, mainly as a result of operating model changes with a back to
basics focus on project delivery and disciplined cost management. EBITA benefitted from strong activity levels and
contribution across the Power Projects portfolio, the exit from low margin contracts and underperforming sites and
overhead reduction from operating model changes.
10Half Year Report 2026 | Downer EDI Limited
Underlying revenues were impacted as a result of a demobilisation and exit agreement of a power maintenance
contract (as outlined in Note E2 Disposal of businesses). Revenues contributed from the demobilised customer contract
were $116.6 million for 1H25 and $28.9 million for 1H26.
Pro forma revenues were down 11.5%, impacted by expected lower activity levels within the Telecommunications sector
following the consolidation of Australian providers and as NBN build out contracts are approaching completion, and
lower revenues within Energy & Industrial mainly due to the exit of low margin sites in 2025 following a strategic review.
Water revenue has been impacted by the roll off of existing projects, replaced by new projects in ramp up, including
Urban Utilities awarded in September 2025, where volumes are expected to increase in future periods.
Looking ahead, we are also investing in modernising technology and standardising our work management platforms
and core business processes in Australia and New Zealand to drive enhanced productivity and efficiency.

The Facilities business is establishing a track record of consistently delivering strong performance, with underlying and
pro forma margin continuing to improve due to the implementation of performance improvement programs designed
to reduce the cost to serve and enhance service delivery.
On a pro forma basis, revenue growth continued due to strong operational volumes across Government/IFM and
Defence Estate Maintenance businesses. On an underlying basis, the revenue decline was impacted by the divestment
of the Cleaning New Zealand business.
The Estate Maintenance and Operation Services (EMOS) Australian Defence Base Services tender was awarded in
September 2025 and commenced operations on 1 February 2026 under the Property and Asset Services (PAS) contract.
The project margin will reset lower in 2H26 following the transition from EMOS.
Facilities completed the divestment of the Cleaning New Zealand business on 31 July 2025, resulting in a pre-tax loss of
$2.0 million. This finalises the portfolio simplification program's divestment of lower margin businesses, including
Catering, Cleaning and Laundries businesses, with the business focused on value creation in core markets.

Statutory earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of $175.5 million, up 31.6%, and statutory NPAT of $98.0 million, an increase
of 29.8%, compared to the prior period of $133.4 million and $75.5 million respectively.
Statutory EBITA of $184.9 million for the period, including individually significant items (ISI) of $42.2 million loss before
interest and tax for the period, reflects a 23.2% improvement on $150.1 million in 1H25.
Divestments and exit costs
During the period, the Group finalised a number of divestments as part of its program of portfolio simplification. The
following divestment and exit costs were recognised in relation to the transactions. Refer to Note E2 for further details on
the individual transactions.
The net loss on divestments and exit costs includes:
n$5.9 million net pre-tax loss (including disposal costs) across the divestments, inclusive of:
n$6.3 million loss on exit of an Australian cleaning and catering contract within Facilities as part of portfolio
simplification strategy to exit single service line Cleaning and Catering businesses.
n$2.0 million loss on sale of the New Zealand Cleaning businesses as part of the ongoing strategy to simplify the
Facilities business and focus on core markets.
n$1.3 million net gain on disposal of the remaining 49% interest in Keolis Downer to the Keolis Group. The net gain on
disposal is inclusive of a $23.9 million dividend recognised prior to completion.
n$1.1 million net gain from the transfer and demobilisation of the Power Maintenance Contract which completed in
July 2025 within Energy & Utilities involving transfer of employees, assets and sites.
12Half Year Report 2026 | Downer EDI Limited
Transformation and restructure costs
Transformation and restructure costs represent costs incurred in relation to Downer’s Transformation program to
restructure its operating model and to identify opportunities for overhead savings from improved alignment and role
clarity between the Corporate and Business Unit organisation structures. The material elements of the costs associated
with the transformation and restructure are as follows:
nRedundancy and severance costs associated with ongoing review of the Group operating model
nTransformation program implementation costs including external advisor costs
nIT transformation costs, impacting workforce management, project management, ERP systems and modernising IT
infrastructure. These programs' objectives include an uplift in capability and/or cost savings.
Regulatory reviews and legal matters
Regulatory review and legal matters costs were incurred in relation to Downer's defence against actions filed against the
Company, including shareholder class actions filed in early 2023 and the action filed by the Australian Competition and
Consumer Commission (ACCC) in December 2024. These costs also relate to regulatory reviews, undertakings related
business conduct reviews and investigations, and costs associated with defending and settling historical long dated
warranty claims associated with businesses no longer in operation.
The shareholder class action and ACCC claim have been disclosed as contingent liabilities in Note C4.
Impairment, asset write-downs and other
Impairment and other asset write-downs relate to:
nA Rail site in the Transport segment totalling $10.0 million including remediation works;
nAccelerated amortisation and write-downs in relation to IT assets and discontinuation of IT development programs,
where the ongoing usage has been reviewed as part of the Technology Simplification programs to reduce
complexity and identify cost savings; and
nImpairment of right of use assets where office space has been consolidated as part of the Group's transformation
program.
Tax
The underlying effective tax rate of 29.4% is lower than the statutory corporate tax rate of 30.0% primarily due to the
impact of non-taxable distributions and franked dividends from joint ventures and associates, and profits earned in
jurisdictions with lower corporate tax rates such as New Zealand (28%).
13Half Year Report 2026 | Downer EDI Limited
Expenses
Total expenses of $4.7 billion decreased by 8.1% compared to $5.1 billion in the prior corresponding period (pcp). Included
in total expenses is $66.1 million
1
of ISIs ($60.7 million in the pcp). Excluding the impact of ISIs, total expenses
decreased 8.3% (from $5.0 billion to $4.6 billion), greater than the fall in revenue for the period, further improving margins.
Downer’s cost base (including ISI) by expense type:
HY26 ($4.7b)
31.2%
42.0%
12.7%

7.4%
Employee benefits expenses decreased by 9.9%, or $160.8 million, to $1.5 billion and represents 31.2% of Downer’s cost
base (31.9% in the prior period). The decrease in labour expenses reflects the impact of divestments of labour intensive
businesses and the benefit from the cost out program.
Subcontractor costs decreased by 11.6%, or $257.3 million, to $2.0 billion, and represents 42.0% of Downer’s cost base
(43.6% in the prior period). Subcontractor use has reduced in the Transport segment following the nearing completion of
a number of projects within the Hawkins and Infrastructure projects business and the Energy & Utilities segment following
the exit of a number of lower margin projects. This subcontractor usage was partially offset by increased subcontractor
use on the QTMP project.
Raw materials and consumables costs increased by 5.7%, or $32.2 million, to $0.6 billion and represents 12.7% of Downer’s
cost base (11.0% in the prior period). This change reflects the nature of work undertaken as well as overall project mix.
Plant and equipment costs decreased by 8.9% or $16.2 million to $0.2 billion, as a result of both the project mix, as well as
lower Transport market activity. Lower project costs were also noted within the Energy & Utilities segment from the
demobilisation and transfer of the Victorian Power Maintenance Contract in July 2025. Total depreciation and
amortisation decreased by 13.3%, or $21.7 million, to $0.1 billion reflecting reduction in leased fleet and sites from cost
savings programs that also reduced interest expense.
Impairment of non-current assets expense of $7.7 million primarily relates to impairment of a Rail site in the Transport
segment. Refer to Note B4 of the Financial Report for additional information.

Cash flow
Operating cash flow
Normalised cash conversion at 90.5% in the period was above the Group's target, reflecting outperformance in cash
collection and demonstrated on-going delivery of cash back profits.
Operating cash flow of $226.8 million up 3.0% on pcp, due principally to an increase in cash generated from operations
including distributions from joint ventures, partially offset by an increase in tax payments in the half. Underlying cash
conversion (operating cash flow excluding interest and tax over underlying EBITDA) was 86.6% (1H25: 81.9%). Normalised
cash conversion, adjusting for payments associated with FY25 and 1H26 ISIs (together $13.9 million), equates to 90.5%. The
strong normalised cash conversion has been achieved through maintaining a disciplined focus on cash collections and
the resolution of outstanding contractual variations and claims.
Net finance costs decreased by $6.2 million, or 15.3% on prior comparative period, to $34.2 million reflecting a reduction in
net debt and lease liability balances driven by operating cash flows and prudent capital management.
Investing cash flow
Total investing cash inflow of $18.3 million includes $76.9 million of proceeds from the disposal of businesses during the
period, net of cash disposed. Refer to note E2 for details.
Net capex increased from $44.7 million to $52.5 million. Gross capex of $55.9 million reflected targeted capital and
intangible asset expenditure (capex), focused on supporting new projects, efficiency enhancing assets, including plant
and equipment refresh and new work management system in Facilities. Net capex was impacted by a reduction in
disposal proceeds from equipment sales.
Free cash flow decreased by 6.5% from $112.5 million in 1H25 to $105.2 million in 1H26. This was largely driven by a $6.7 million
increase in operating cash flows, as well as an $11.8 million reduction (or 15.8% decrease) in lease payments as the Group
has rationalised its leased fleet and site footprint following divestments and labour reductions as part of cost out
programs across the business. This was partially offset by $18.2 million in short term advances made to Joint Venture
entities and in Corporate and higher net capex of $7.8 million mainly due to lower levels of proceeds from the disposal of
plant and equipment.
Debt and bonding
The Group has continued to improve leverage to build capacity to invest and to pursue strategic growth opportunities,
with reduced net debt to Underlying EBITDA (which includes lease liabilities) of 0.8x at 31 December 2025, an
improvement from 1.3x at 31 December 2024.
At 31 December 2025, the Group had liquidity of $2.3 billion comprising cash balances of $683.4 million and undrawn
committed debt facilities of $1,625.0 million. Net debt (excluding lease liabilities and including Deferred Finance Costs
and Derivative Marked to Market (MTM)) reduced from $447.5 million at 31 December 2024 to $242.3 million at
31 December 2025.
During the period, Private Placement Notes of 100.0 million United States Dollars and 30.0 million Australian Dollars were
repaid at maturity in July 2025 with available group liquidity. A $400.0 million bridge facility remains in place for the
upcoming AUD MTN refinancing in FY26.
Fitch Ratings (Fitch) affirmed the Group's issuer rating as BBB in May 2025, and was re-affirmed as BBB in February 2026.
Downer notes it has maintained and increased its underlying EBITDA margin above the minimum requirement of 5% at
31 December 2025.
The Group’s performance bonding facilities totalled $1,877.8 million at 31 December 2025 with $701.8 million undrawn.
During the 6 months to 31 December 2025, surplus limits were rationalised resulting in a $25.0 million reduction of total
bonding facility limits and related cost savings in fees. There is sufficient capacity to support the existing pipeline and the
ongoing operations of the Group.
15Half Year Report 2026 | Downer EDI Limited
Dividends
The Downer Board resolved to pay an Interim dividend of 12.9 cents per share, 100% franked, payable on 2 April 2026 to
shareholders on the register at 4 March 2026.
The Interim dividend for 1H26 of 12.9 cents per share represented a payout ratio of 65%.
The Company’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan remains suspended.
The Board also determined to continue to pay a fully imputed dividend on the ROADS security, which having been reset
on 15 June 2025 has a yield of 7.27% per annum payable quarterly in arrears, with the next payment due on 16 March 2026.
As this dividend is fully imputed (the New Zealand equivalent of being fully franked), the actual cash yield paid by Downer
will be 5.23% per annum until the next reset date.
Balance sheet
Since 30 June 2025, the net assets of the Group reduced by $90.5 million.

Assets
Net debt, calculated as borrowings (excluding lease liabilities) less cash and cash equivalents, decreased by
$39.2 million driven by cash generated by operations and cash proceeds collected from divestments (net divestment
proceeds of $76.9 million).
Property, plant and equipment (PP&E) decreased by $37.5 million to $749.3 million, largely attributable to the depreciation
expense of $56.0 million, impairment expense of $6.7 million and foreign exchange translation differences of $13.4 million.
These were partially offset by net capital expenditure of $45.3 million.
Intangibles declined by $22.2 million to $2.0 billion, driven by amortisation expense of $25.4 million, primarily from
customer contract intangibles and software and system development assets, partially offset by investment in work
management systems in Facilities.
Net working capital, which includes current trade receivables and contract assets, in addition to current trade payables
and contract liabilities, increased by $5.4 million.
Other assets and liabilities decreased by $75.4 million mainly due to the completion of the Keolis Downer divestment and
transfer and demobilisation of the Power Maintenance Contract (refer note E2), The total decrease in held for sale assets
and liabilities was $63.7 million.
Total equity decreased by $90.5 million, largely as a result of the share buy back where 8,430,236 shares were acquired
on market at a cost of $64.4 million, foreign currency translation differences of $29.4 million and dividends paid during the
period of $99.3 million, offset by the $98.0 million statutory profit generated by the group during 1H26.

Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements
for the half-year ended 31 December 2025
A_About this report
Statement of compliance
These general purpose financial statements (Financial Report) for the half-year reporting period 31 December 2025 of
Downer EDI Limited (ABN 97 003 872 848) have been prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting
and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The condensed consolidated half-year financial statements comprise the Parent
company and its controlled entities (together the Group).
The Financial Report does not include all the information required for an annual financial report and should be read in
conjunction with the 2025 Annual Report.
Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner that ensures the resulting financial information satisfies the
concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events
is reported. The accounting policies and methods of computation applied in the Financial Report are consistent with
those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim period.
Amounts in the Financial Report are presented in Australian dollars unless otherwise noted and has been prepared on a
historical cost basis, except for revaluation of certain financial instruments.
The Financial Report was authorised for issue by the Board of Directors.
Rounding of amounts
Downer is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ reports) Instrument
2016/191, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the Directors’ Report and condensed consolidated financial
statements. Unless otherwise expressly stated, amounts have been rounded off to the nearest whole number of millions
of dollars and one place of decimals representing hundreds of thousands of dollars in accordance with that Instrument.
Amounts shown as $– represent amounts less than $50,000 which have been rounded down. In some instances, totals
may not add due to rounding.
Going Concern
As at 31 December 2025, the Group has net current liabilities of $338.0 million (Jun 2025: net current liabilities $299.8 million)
largely as a result of $501.1 million of facilities maturing within 12 months. The Group generated positive cash flows from
operations of $226.8 million during the six months ending 31 December 2025. The Group has sufficient unutilised facilities
that can be drawn, should it be required. Based on the unutilised facilities and cash flow forecast for the next 12 months,
the Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable. Accordingly, the financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
Accounting estimates and judgements
Significant judgement, estimates and assumptions about future events are made by management when applying
accounting policies and preparing the Financial Report which are consistent with those described in the 2025
Annual Report.

B1. Segment information
Identification of reportable segments
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue
and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker in
order to effectively allocate Group resources and assess performance.
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Group
CEO in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. The Group CEO is identified as the Chief
Operating Decision Maker. The operating segments are identified by the Group based on the nature of the services
provided. Financial information about each of these segments and additional information on operating businesses
within each segment is reported to the Group CEO on a regular basis.
In determining the information to disclose for each segment the Group has implemented the July 2024 IFRIC Agenda
Decision on Operating Segments and notes no change in disclosure, with the Group not including each item of expense
presented in the condensed consolidated statement of profit and loss as these are not reviewed by the Group CEO for
assessing performance of segments and are not expected to influence decisions of users of the financial statements.
The reportable segments are based on a combination of operating businesses determined by the similarity of the
services provided, the sources of the Group’s major risks that could therefore have the greatest effect on the rates of
return and their quantitative contribution to the Group’s results.
The reportable segments identified within the Group are outlined as follows:

(i) The WANOS on issue has been adjusted by the weighted average effect of vested executive incentive shares of 37,153 (Dec 2024: 16,851).
(ii) For diluted EPS, the WANOS has been further adjusted by the potential vesting of executive incentive shares.
(iii) The WANOS adjustment is the value of ROADS that could potentially be converted into ordinary shares at the reporting date. It is calculated based on
the issued value of ROADS in New Zealand dollars converted to Australian dollars at the spot rate prevailing at the reporting date, which was
$172.7 million (Dec 24: $181.1 million), divided by the 20-day Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of the Company's ordinary shares for the period
preceding 31 December 2025 discounted by 2.5% according to the ROADS contract terms, which was $7.72 (Dec 2024: $5.41).
(iv) At 31 December 2025, the ROADS were deemed anti-dilutive and consequently, diluted EPS remained at 14.0 cents per share (Dec 2024: 10.3 cents
per share).
B6. Subsequent events
At the date of this report, there is no other matter or circumstance that has arisen since the end of the financial period,

Impairment of assets
The Group assesses at each reporting date, whether there are any indicators that assets may be impaired. If any
indicators exist, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the asset.
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if
events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. No impairment indicators for Goodwill have
been identified at the reporting date.
As reported in the 2025 Annual Report (Note C7 Intangible Assets), the estimation of recoverable amount of CGUs to
which goodwill has been allocated involves key estimates and judgements, including projected cash flows, discount
rates, budgeted revenue growth rates, EBIT margin and long term growth rate. Projected cash flows include assumptions
in relation to contract awards, extensions and renewals, including potentially significant individual contracts that if not
won, extended or renewed or if terminated early, it is reasonably possible that this may result in an adjustment in
carrying amount of CGUs.
Since June 2025, contract awards in the Facilities segment have reduced the uncertainty at 30 June 2025 that a
reasonably possible change in assumptions would result in an adjustment to the carrying amount of the CGU.

35Half Year Report 2026 | Downer EDI Limited
Other contingent liabilities
i.The Group is subject to design liability in relation to completed design and construction projects. It is not possible to
reliably estimate these claims and the Directors are of the opinion that there is adequate insurance to cover this
area. No amounts are recognised in the financial statements.
ii.The Group is subject to ongoing fitness for purpose and defect liability obligations in relation to contracts. It is not
possible to reliably estimate these obligations.
iii.The Group is subject to product liability claims. Provision is made for the potential costs of carrying out rectification
works based on known claims and previous claims history.
iv.Controlled entities have entered into various joint arrangements under which the controlled entity is jointly and
severally liable for the obligations of the relevant joint arrangements.
v.The Group carries the normal contractors’ and consultants’ liability in relation to services, supply and construction
contracts (for example, liability relating to professional advice, design, completion, workmanship and damage), as
well as liability for personal injury/property damage during the course of a project. Potential liability may arise from
claims, disputes and/or litigation/arbitration by or against Group companies and/or joint venture arrangements in
which the Group has an interest. The Group is currently managing a number of claims and dispute processes in
relation to services, supply and design and construction contracts as well as in relation to personal injury and
property damage claims arising from project delivery. Two disputes with customers in relation to contractors liability
have not been disclosed separately as disclosure can be expected to prejudice the position of the Group.
vi.In December 2022, Downer received correspondence notifying an alleged stray current defect in the depot
constructed by Downer for the High Capacity Metro Trains Project and has received subsequent correspondence
alleging that Downer is responsible for the costs of rectification. Downer denies liability and has referred the dispute
to arbitration.
vii.Since 2023, Downer has been defending a class action proceeding in which it is alleged Downer breached continuous
disclosure obligations and that it engaged in misleading or deceptive conduct in the period 23 July 2019 to
24 February 2023 by making and/or failing to correct or qualify various statements in connection with a maintenance
contract in its Australian Utilities business and Downer’s financial performance.
On 1 March 2024, Downer filed its defence to the plaintiffs’ claim (which included a proportionate liability defence
identifying Downer’s former auditor as a concurrent wrongdoer) and a third party claim against the former auditor.
On 9 August 2024, Downer filed amended pleadings which included additional claims against its former auditor. On
26 February 2025, the plaintiffs filed an amended pleading in which it named Downer’s former auditor as the second
defendant in the proceeding and made direct claims against the former auditor.
viii.On 12 December 2024, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) commenced civil proceedings
against Spotless Facility Services Pty Ltd, a Downer subsidiary, relating to allegations concerning the supply of estate
maintenance and operations services to the Department of Defence. The ACCC release to ASX on 12 December 2024
includes further details. Downer denies the ACCC allegations and is defending the proceedings.
ix.In the ordinary course of business, contingent liabilities exist in respect of claims and potential claims against entities
in the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity does not consider that the outcomes of any such claims known to
exist at the date of this report, either individually or in aggregate, are likely to have a material effect on its operations
or financial position.

Summary of borrowing arrangements
The Group’s borrowing arrangements are as follows:
Bank loan facilities
Bilateral loan facilities:
The Group has a total of $325.0 million (June 2025: $325.0 million) in committed bilateral loan facilities which are
unsecured.
Syndicated bridge loan facilities:
The Group has $400.0 million (June 2025: $400.0 million) of committed syndicated bridge loan facilities which are
unsecured,
Syndicated loan facilities:
The Group has $1,200.0 million (June 2025: $1,200.0 million) of committed syndicated bank loan facilities which are
unsecured,
USD private placement notes
USD unsecured private placement notes matured in July 2025 and were repaid (June 2025: US$100.0 million). The USD
denominated principal and interest amounts were fully hedged against the Australian dollar through cross-currency
interest rate swaps.
AUD private placement notes
AUD unsecured private placement notes matured in July 2025 and were repaid (June 2025: $30.0 million).
Medium Term Notes (MTNs)
The Group has the following unsecured MTNs on issue:

nJPY 10.0 billion (June 2025: JPY 10.0 billion) maturing May 2033
The carrying value of the AUD MTNs maturing April 2026 includes a premium of $0.7 million (June 2025: $1.9 million) over
the face value owing to the differential between the coupon rate for that instrument and the prevailing market interest
rate at the date of issue.
The JPY denominated principal and interest amounts have been fully hedged against the Australian dollar through a
cross-currency interest rate swap.
The above loan facilities and note issuances are supported by guarantees from certain Group subsidiaries.
Insurance Premium Funding
A Joint Operation in which Downer has a 50% share entered into an Insurance Premium Funding arrangement with a
maturity of July 2026. The Group has recorded $1.7 million as an unsecured current liability being our share of the
outstanding balance at 31 December 2025.

Covenants on financing facilities
Downer Group’s financing facilities contain undertakings to comply with financial covenants so that Group guarantors of
these facilities collectively meet certain minimum threshold amounts of Group EBITA and Group Total Tangible Assets.
The main financial covenants which the Group is subject to are Net Worth, Interest Service Coverage and Leverage.
Financial covenants testing is undertaken monthly and reported at the Downer Board meetings. Reporting of financial
covenants to financiers occurs semi-annually for the rolling 12-month periods to 30 June and 31 December. Downer
Group was in compliance with all its financial covenants as at 31 December 2025.
Bank guarantees and insurance bonds
The Group has $1,877.8 million (June 2025: $1,902.8 million) of bank guarantee and insurance bond facilities to support its
contracting activities. $1,024.4 million (June 2025: $1,040.2 million) of these facilities are provided to the Group on a
committed basis and $853.4 million (June 2025: $862.6 million) on an uncommitted basis.
The Group’s facilities are provided by a number of banks and insurance companies on an unsecured and revolving
basis. $1,176.1 million (June 2025: $1,240.4 million) (refer to Note C4) of these facilities were utilised as at 31 December 2025
with $701.8 million (June 2025: $662.4 million) unutilised. These facilities have varying maturity dates that occur between
financial years 2026, 2027 and 2028.
The underlying risk being assumed by the relevant financier under all bank guarantees and insurance bonds is
corporate credit risk rather than project-specific risk.
The Group has flexibility in respect of certain committed facility amounts (shown as part of the unutilised bilateral loan
facilities) which can, at the election of the Group, be utilised to provide additional bank guarantee capacity.
Refinancing requirements
The Group will negotiate with existing and, where required, new financiers to extend the maturity date or refinance
facilities maturing within the next 12 months. The Group’s financial metrics and credit rating as well as conditions in
financial markets and other factors may influence the outcome of these negotiations. The $500 million AUD MTN
matures in April 2026 and will be replaced with a new AUD MTN issuance.
Credit ratings
The Group's external credit rating was affirmed at BBB (Outlook Stable) in May 2025, and re-affirmed at BBB (Outlook
Stable) in February 2026, reflecting a continued improvement in earnings margins, strengthened balance sheet and
leverage metrics.

On 13 March 2025, Downer entered into an agreement with Dimeo to sell its New Zealand Cleaning business. The sale
completed on 31 July 2025 with net settlement of $3.3 million paid, resulting in a pre-tax loss of $2.0 million.
Downer's interest in Keolis Downer
At 31 December 2024, Downer's 49% interest in Keolis Downer Pty Ltd (in the Transport segment) was classified as an asset
held for sale and equity accounting ceased. The group entered into a sale agreement on 1 July 2025 to sell its 49%
interest to the Keolis Group. As a result of the agreement between Keolis Group and Downer, adjusted for expected
working capital movements, completion adjustments, transaction costs and warranties, the carrying value of the
investment was remeasured to $65.8 million at 30 June 2025.
Immediately prior to completion on 1 December 2025, a dividend of $27.3 million was received by Downer. This dividend
was comprised of a distribution from historical profits of $23.9 million as well as $3.4 million paid from profits earned from
1 July 2025 to completion. The distribution from historical profits has been recognised in Individually Significant Items in
line with policy, whilst the distribution from current period profits has been recognised in underlying earnings.
As a result of the dividend payment, and after adjusting for working capital and completion adjustments, a net gain on
disposal of $1.3 million was recognised on completion of the transaction on 1 December 2025. Deferred consideration of
$0.8 million has been recognised as a financial asset.
Energy & Utilities customer contract
In the prior year, the Energy & Utilities business entered into an agreement to transfer the assets and liabilities relating to
a customer contract to a third party as part of a demobilisation and exit agreement. The assets and liabilities connected
with the transfer were classified as held for sale and transferred on 31 July 2025, resulting in a gain on disposal of $1.1 million
after completion adjustments.

nAASB 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after
1 January 2027).
(c) AASB sustainability reporting standards
The Australian climate-related financial disclosures legislation received Royal Assent in September 2024, under the
Treasury Laws Amendment (Financial Market Infrastructure and Other Measures) Act 2024 ('Act'). Following the Act's
enactment, the AASB introduced the first set of Australian Sustainability Reporting Standards (ASRS).
These standards include:

Reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements of financial assets
The fair value of Level 3 investments has decreased by $0.8 million from prior year (Jun 25: $0.9 million decrease) due to
revaluation and return on investment.
Recognition and measurement
Fair value measurement
When a derivative is designated as the cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of
the derivative is recognised in Other comprehensive income and accumulated in the hedging reserve. Any ineffective
portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Valuation of financial instruments
For financial instruments measured and carried at fair value, the Group uses the following to categorise the
methods used:
nLevel 1: fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
nLevel 2: fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices)
nLevel 3: fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
During the year there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value hierarchies.
The following table shows the valuation technique used in measuring Level 2 and 3 fair values, as well as significant
unobservable inputs used:
TypeValuation techniqueSignificant unobservable input
Cross-currency and interest rate
swaps
Calculated using the present value of the
estimated future cash flows based on
observable yield curves.
Not applicable.
Foreign currency forward
contracts
Calculated using forward exchange rates

Unquoted equity investmentsCalculated based on the Group’s interest in
the net assets of the unquoted entities.
Assumptions are made with regard to
future expected revenues and discount
rates. Changing the inputs to the
valuations to reasonably possible
alternative assumptions would not
significantly change the amounts
recognised in profit or loss, total assets
or total liabilities, or total equity.
