Telstra Corporation Limited and controlled entities | A1 Operating and financial review Chairman and CEO message Dear Shareholders Thank you for your continued support and investment in Telstra through a year where COVID-19 continued to have a profound effect on our lives, our society and the economy. All of us have been impacted to some degree and we hope you and your families are in good health and are remaining safe through the challenges of this unprecedented pandemic. Through all of this Telstra has tried to set an example for our people, our customers and our country as we all navigated through the challenging and largely uncharted waters. Despite these extraordinary events, we maintained our operations and continued to deliver on an ambitious strategy. Your business has performed well and we finished the year in a strong position. We have many achievements to be proud of this year, including the progress we are making on our transformational T22 strategy. As you will see, the many tangible benefits of T22 are now becoming clear and underpin our commitment to return the business to underlying growth and position it for success in the future. When we launched T22 we were very clear about the need to radically simplify and digitise our business, to remove customer pain points, to remove legacy systems and processes, to introduce new Agile ways of working and to further extend our network leadership including leading in 5G. In other words, to better prepare the business for the acceleration of the digital economy. We have stayed absolutely disciplined and focused on delivering what we said we would, and three years into what has been one of the largest and most ambitious transformations by a telco globally, we are now a vastly different company. We are extremely well progressed and are on track to deliver our strategic objectives in the year ahead. This includes our proposed legal restructure that will better position us to take advantage of opportunities as they arise and our recent announcement of the proposed sale of 49 per cent of our InfraCo Towers business for $2.8 billion, of which approximately 50 per cent, or up to $1.35 billion, will be returned to shareholders during FY22 via an on-market share buy-back. A turning point The 2021 financial year was significant for Telstra in that it was a turning point in our financial performance. Every year for the last four years we have had to face the very real challenge of the financial headwinds associated with the transfer of a material part of our business to the nbn. This has meant we have started each of the last four years with our EBITDA going backwards by up to $800 million. This was happening at the same time as competition in the market was reducing returns from both our fixed and mobile businesses and technology disruption and significant structural change were re-shaping our industry. In many ways these dynamics were the catalyst for the launch of our T22 strategy in 2018 to radically transform the business, in conjunction with a conviction about how technology innovation was going to continue to accelerate. After a decade of disruption following the creation of the nbn, we can now clearly see the path to underlying growth ahead. Our investment in innovation and technology, digitisation and networks, improving our customer experience and being disciplined in our capital management, mean that Telstra is in a strong position to grow. The financial results detailed in this report show the turning point we have reached and underscore our commitment to delivering long-term value for shareholders. Given the status of our proposed restructure and in order for us to manage our ongoing continuous disclosure obligations, we believe that it is prudent to suspend the Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Our intention is to reinstate it when circumstances allow. We know how important our dividend is to shareholders and this year our financial performance enabled the Board to resolve to pay a fully-franked final dividend of 8 cents per share, comprising a final ordinary dividend of 5 cents per share and a final special dividend of 3 cents per share. This brings the total dividend for FY21 to 16 cents per share and means we will directly return $1.9 billion to shareholders for FY21. Our focus in FY22 So, what of the year ahead? We remain fully committed to finishing the job with T22 and that includes continuing to improve the customer experience, progressing our proposed restructure, and extending our leadership in 5G. No one is more committed to regional connectivity than Telstra, and we’ll continue to work with our customers, partners, stakeholders and governments to ensure regional Australia benefits from the increasing digitisation of our economy. We remain focussed on growing the core of our business as well as looking for growth from exciting opportunities in areas like health and energy.

  • Streamlining Financial Reporting Website Indroduction Text
    Hot Topics Improving & Rationalising Disclosures Everyone has a role to play in improving disclosures in financial reporting and the key is removing unnecessary information from financial statements and allowing an entity to simply tell their story. This requires an entity to use judgement to determine whether a specified disclosure is necessary. Through the Disclosure Initiative project, the AASB and the IASB are taking steps to improve the requirements in accounting standards for the disclosure of financial information. More information on the Disclosure Initiative project can be found here: Project Summaries: Disclosure Initiative. To date, as part of this project, the AASB has: issued Amendments to AASB 101 clarifying the requirements in AASB 101, including materiality; issued Amendments to AASB 107 enabling users to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities; and issued Invitation to Comment 35 to invite constituent’s comments on the proposed changes by the IASB. Some entities have already taken the initiative and have demonstrated that financial statements can be trimmed down without affecting compliance with accounting standards. Below are links to articles, reports and presentations from organisations and individuals that have investigated the issue and provide insight into their findings and guidance on how an entity may be able to improve their financial reports.
