This was followed by running the world’s most unique New Zealand Open in Queenstown, over two courses and in a pro-am format which was a real success. Our thanks to Michael Hill Tournaments Limited for their tireless work to bring the Men’s Open tournament to life. It is greatly appreciated. The 2015 New Zealand Men’s Open will be further developed with increased prize money and TV coverage. Lydia Ko was again the standout on the international stage as she climbed the world rankings and continued to establish herself as a world class performer. Three further LPGA titles in addition to winning the season long points race were highlights in a year of simply stunning achievements. PRESIDENT’S REPORT New Zealand Golf President Philip Hassall New Zealand Golf will remember 2014 as a year when our new strategic direction came to life. After acknowledging for some time there was a need to show more support to the grass roots of the game, I’m pleased to report that we have made significant progress in this area during 2014. As a first and important step, this year we reached agreement with our member District Associations on what we called the “Way Forward Guiding Principles” document. In these challenging times it is important that we work together with our District Associations to improve the health of our sport. The “Way Forward Guiding Principles” will help us navigate the path ahead in a united manner. I’m pleased to note, that after some initial push back, all District Associations are full supporters of the new strategic direction the organisation is taking with many adopting it as their own strategy. In another significant step, the organisation enhanced relationships and progressed formal agreements with nine golfing organisations to align and support New Zealand Golf’s strategic outcomes. These included the PGA, First Tee, SNAG, New Zealand Maori Golf Association, 6 From a local New Zealand perspective, perhaps the biggest achievement for Lydia was being awarded the supreme Halberg Award in February. This acknowledged her as New Zealand’s finest sportsperson in 2013 – a stunning achievement for a real golfing superstar. Eagles, Nomads, Golf Managers Association, Golf Course Superintendents Association and Cheeky9. In the men’s pro ranks there was great success to toast as well. Both Danny Lee and Tim Wilkinson competed well on the PGA Tour and will be joined by Steve Alker in 2015. It will be wonderful to follow these three New Zealanders on the world’s biggest tour. We do acknowledge the year in review has again been challenging for many in the golfing sector. The Board and management have worked tirelessly throughout 2014 and their efforts are acknowledged with many thanks. In the amateur ranks our players again competed well in Australia and further afield however our results in Japan at the World Amateur Team Championship were short of our expectations. The core strategies of New Zealand Golf are to grow and support the game and we made significant progress in these areas in 2014. We acknowledge the Pupuke Golf Club and the Port Chalmers Golf Club which celebrated their centenaries in 2014. We congratulate these clubs for reaching this marvellous milestone and acknowledge their contribution to golf and the community over the past 100 years. Under these strategic priorities many new initiatives were established in 2013 to address some of the issues we face. We built depth to our strategic plan by publishing the world class Community Golf Plan; a document that articulates how we can join together as a golfing sector to grow golf in the grass roots communities around the country. We continued the LOVE Golf campaign to improve the way New Zealanders think about the game of golf and drive participation and we launched an initiative to attract casual golfers to become part of the golfing family. On the playing side of the game, we started the year with a wonderful showcase of women’s change is not always embraced, however when this group looks back on the achievements of the organisation over the past 12 months, it should feel very pleased for the advancements it has made. Finally I would like to offer my sincere thanks and appreciation to the membership for allowing me to be President over this past year. The role of President is one that is always a privilege and something that I never take for granted. I look forward to a successful 2015 where we can continue to work together to grow and support the game we love. Philip Hassall President New Zealand Golf Incorporated Sadly, life member Barry Forrest passed away in April 2014. Barry was a long-time servant of the game and will be missed by the golfing community of Timaru where he made such a big contribution. We extend our sympathy to the Forrest family and all other members of the golfing family who lost loved ones in 2014. I would also like to acknowledge and thank New Zealand Golf Chairman Paul Fyfe for his leadership of our organisation in the past 12 months and the dedication and achievements of the Board.

New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 9 2014 Financial Performance From a financial perspective, the business faced another difficult year. Our targeted profit for the year was $77,000 and while the business achieved an operating surplus of $47,552 prior to depreciation and amortisation, after accounting for these costs the deficit sits at $51,190. Securing appropriate levels of sustainable revenue remains the core challenge however this is set against a background of declining traditional membership levies, reducing charitable trust income and a very tough commercial sponsorship market. The fact that our affiliation levies have remained at the same rate for nine years now is a matter we may well have to address in the coming year. Currently, 47% of our income is derived from affiliation levies leaving 53% to be raised by the business. As reported last year, the demand for delivery of services increases each year and we will need to find new ways to increase our revenue if we are to deliver on the ambitions set out in our strategic plan. Administration Structure In association with our member District Associations, the Board concluded a major project to review the national administration for golf that had the broad goals of establishing: A unified and common strategy among all administration bodies working in golf; Greater efficiencies and collaboration; and Increased delivery of services to grass roots golf clubs. Thanks to the help and leadership of a subcommittee led by Max Walker of Canterbury Golf, I am pleased to report that we reached agreement on a range of guiding principles for the future of our joint administration of the sport in New Zealand. A critical part of these guiding principles is the need for a close working relationship between New Zealand Golf, our District Associations and our clubs. This is an important focus moving forward. From a national governance perspective, the alignment process with the PGA of New Zealand continues to be worked on diligently by both parties. We will determine the most appropriate way forward with the support of our District Associations in the coming financial year. Industry Partnerships In addition to our member District Associations, New Zealand Golf continues to work closely with our friends across the golfing sector. I’m pleased to report we have very close relationships with the PGA of New Zealand, 10 the Golf Managers Association, SNAG, The First Tee, the New Zealand Golf Course Superintendents Association and the New Zealand Maori Golf Association to name just a few. These organisations all have agreements with New Zealand Golf to work towards the goals as set out in our strategic plan and I would like to acknowledge the work they have done throughout the year. A key future work stream is to engage with the regional sports trusts around the country to assist the grass roots growth and support of our game. We look forward to continuing our work with all of these organisations in 2015. International Relationships An important part of our role as leaders of the game in New Zealand is to foster beneficial relationships with international golfing organisations. We take our role as part of the worldwide community of golf seriously and feel that increased collaboration and sharing of ideas with our international peers provides benefits for our game here in New Zealand. Our relationships remain very close with the R&A, APGC, IGF, Augusta National and Golf Australia in particular and we look forward to further collaboration with these bodies in the future. In particular I would like to acknowledge the R&A for their very generous support of New Zealand Golf’s new grass roots initiatives. The investment received from the R&A will assist us greatly as we strive to grow and support the game in New Zealand. New Initiatives - Growing & Supporting the Game Following the publishing of our new strategic plan, this year we have launched a number of new initiatives to bring this plan to life. Under the twin priorities of growing and supporting the game, the new initiatives launched are also a reflection of our increased allocation of budget to the community and grass roots segments of the game. We continued the LOVE Golf campaign to improve the way New Zealanders think about the game of golf and drive participation and we launched an initiative to register casual golfers on our national database. The later initiative is particularly important as we strive to connect with the growing casual segment of the market and encourage them to become part of the golfing family. From a knowledge perspective, we engaged in some key pieces of research this year which provided very valuable information on the perception of golf and also the nature of the volunteer and remunerated workforce across the golf sector. This information will be valuable for us to assess on a yearly basis to understand the progress we are making. To deliver increased services to the grass roots of the game, this year we established two new roles in the Community Golf team. In partnership with District Associations, these roles provide a direct service link to golf clubs and are charged with helping clubs improve their planning processes business management. We are extremely encouraged by the progress these appointments have made in over nine months in 2014. We look forward to seeing their impact grow in 2015. To build on these themes, a national educational seminar series was held throughout the country that provided business learning opportunities for club representatives. This is an area of work we will look to expand in 2015 as the education framework we have been working on comes to life through the Golf Managers Association and the Diploma of Golf Management through Auckland Business College. Perhaps the biggest achievement this year however has been adding depth to our strategic plan by publishing the world class Community Golf Plan; a document that articulates how we can join together as a golfing sector to grow golf in the grass roots communities around the country. This plan has been incredibly well received and endorsed from all parts of the sector. The R&A has additionally identified this piece of work as world leading. Golf Operations changes were subsequently introduced in 2014. Our thanks go to DotGolf who, as our national service provider and partner delivers an excellent service to the game of golf. Alan McCracken and his team provide New Zealand Golf with a constantly evolving product that is world class and the envy of many international golfing organisations. National Championships National championships remain an integral part of our operations and we were pleased to present 28 national events throughout 2014. Once again in 2014 the number of entries into national events increased. New Zealand Golf runs a wide variety of national championships which also include teams championships the TORO Interprovincials and Men’s and Women’s Masters. We acknowledge and thank Denise Langdon and PaR NZ who run a range of New Zealand Golf participation events. These events are popular tournaments on the New Zealand Golf calendar and well attended every year. The Charles Tour continues to grow in significance and in 2014 we welcomed another host venue in the Akarana Golf Club. While the weather hampered the first Akarana Open reducing the championship to 54 holes, we are looking forward to a longstanding relationship with the club. Hosting a national championship is a large commitment for a club and its members and we give our thanks to those clubs which have generously provided their courses as host venues. We also give our sincere thanks to those many volunteers who gave their valuable time to ensure our championships ran efficiently. Club Membership This year we have again experienced a membership decline in line with previous years and consistent with worldwide trends. Given the decline remains steady at around 2% per annum, we do need to accept that the behaviours and preferences of participants are changing. The majority of golf participants now engage with the game outside of the club membership structure and although this provides challenges for us, we must embrace these participants they are the future of our game. This is a key priority for the business moving forward. High Performance As New Zealand Golf’s focus has broadened in recent times into the Community Golf area, the budget for our High Performance programmes has reduced significantly. The national teams and squads that represent New Zealand abroad, and of course those players who move through to the professional ranks to contend on the world stage, are a great source of pride and inspiration for the players who aspire to follow in their footsteps and for the weekend warrior alike. National Handicapping System In late 2013 the organisation embarked on an extensive handicap system review process. Over 240 Golf Clubs and nearly 10,000 members replied to the survey and the proposed The role and relevance of our High Performance programme continues in these changing times as High Performance remains the face of participation. To truly get a sense of this we need only to reflect back to the Rugby World Cup of 2011 and more recently the Cricket World New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 11 Cup. Success at the highest level supports the growth of the game, sponsorship opportunities within the game and of course player development itself. The highlights of 2014 continue to come from one Lydia Ko. Her performances continue to belie her young age as she goes from strength to strength with her year ending win and capturing of the race to CME Globe signalling what is still to come. Espirito Santo Team Munchin Keh, Julianne Alvarez & Zoe Brake Eisenhower Team Tae Koh, Joshua Munn & Vaughn McCall On the amateur scene 2014 was a ‘worlds year’ with this iteration of the men’s and women’s event being held in Japan. The host club for both the Eisenhower Trophy and Espirito Santo Trophy was the picturesque Karuizawa Resort just outside of Tokyo. The depth of talent of both the men’s and women’s events was evident through the magnificent performances of the winning teams and those who challenged them. Unfortunately the New Zealand women’s team fell off the pace early and struggled to get back into the competition, finishing 34th. The men’s team performance of 15 under par would have once upon a time seen them contend for the title or at least a place inside the top 10. No longer, the incredible 38 under par total of the USA secured them the trophy and left the New Zealand team fighting for a top 20 placing, ultimately just missing out and tying for 22nd. The international amateur scene has certainly become highly competitive with most countries developing their own systems to support these young players as they progress their talents. The most noticeable attribute of the winning teams is their fearless approach to their play coupled with the skill to execute the shots required, something our own programme will continue to strive to instil. While the feats of Lydia Ko have been well published and her many wins celebrated, 2014 also saw Steven Alker, Josh Geary, Gareth Paterson, Ryan Fox and Simon Owen win professional titles on the professional stage. Danny Lee and Tim Wilkinson retained their PGA Tour cards in 2014 for the 2015 season while Steve Alker overcame his 2013 near miss to gain his 2015 PGA Tour Card, a fantastic achievement by these three players to reach the big show. James Beale’s two international victories warrant an individual mention as this young amateur player will now have the opportunity to play a PGA Tour event in 2015. His win in the Pacific Northwest Amateur in July firmly signalled his abilities but his win at the Canadian Amateur in August cemented them. He rose to be the number one ranked New Zealand amateur player on the World Amateur Golf Rankings in 2014 and now looks forward to the challenge of playing the 2015 Canadian Open, July 20-26th at the Glen Abbey Golf Club. Most encouragingly was the three young players in 2014 who stole the show in Australia capturing three separate Australian junior titles. Bailey Smith, Alanna Campbell and Henry Spring all showed the emerging junior talent throughout New Zealand that anything is possible with some hard work, determination and self-belief. To further refine our programme, a review of High Performance activity will be undertaken in 2015. The goal of this process is to further improve the philosophies and practices that make up our programme. We will compare ourselves with leading international countries and seek the assistance and expertise with High Performance Sport New Zealand to review the best way forward for our programmes. We do wish to ensure this aspect of our business continues to operate in a manner that makes best use of the resources we have available and achieves results we can all be proud of. New Zealand Golf would like to offer our thanks to Srixon, Cobra Puma Golf and Golf Distributors as key supporters of the High Performance programme. Our sincere thanks also go to our men’s and women’s national selectors Anne Seed and Lisa Herbert, John Spraggs, Michael Barltrop and Rod Patterson. We also thank those who have volunteered their time to manage teams this year including Jay Carter, Reon Sayer, Aaron Walsh, Brent Paterson, Karen de Lautour and Libby Steele. ISPS Handa New Zealand Women’s Open hosted by Christchurch The stunning Clearwater Golf Club again played host to the ISPS Handa New Zealand Women’s Open. With co-sanctioning again with the Ladies European Tour and the Australasian Ladies Professional Golf Tour, a stellar field was assembled which in turn attracted huge galleries of spectators with many thousands watching our own Lydia Ko. Our thanks go to the Christchurch City Council and our title sponsor ISPS Handa. The event would not run as well without their generous support. A special mention and thanks also to Bob Tuohy and his team at TA Golf. Bob is a close friend of New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 13 New Zealand Golf and does an exceptional job for us in staging our Women’s Open. The Board Chair and CEO are ex officio on all Board subcommittees. New Zealand Open Championship In partnership with Michael Hill Tournaments Limited, we were delighted this year to return to Queenstown and host the world’s most unique Open Championship, played with a concurrent Pro-Am format and over two fantastic venues (The Hills and Millbrook). The production and staging of the event was world class and of significant importance, the financial risk and operational workload is now removed from New Zealand Golf. International Appointments: Our sincere thanks to the MHTL team led by John Hart and Michael Glading. Our Open Championship could not be in better hands and we thank you for the tireless enthusiasm and passion you continue to bring to the event. Staff The Board extends its considerable appreciation and thanks to the New Zealand Golf staff, led by Chief Executive Dean Murphy. The staff of New Zealand Golf is a relatively small team considering the scope of the work before them and we are very fortunate to have the services of such fine and dedicated people for which we are grateful. New Zealand Golf Board & Management The Board of New Zealand Golf is a voluntary Board and I am grateful for the time and expertise they provide to New Zealand Golf at Board and subcommittee level. Each member of the Board is passionate about the game of golf and brings a great variety of knowledge and experience to the governance of our sport. During 2014 we welcomed Anna Shires and Mike Howard to the Board however regrettably, Brent Robinson left the Board after two years in order to focus on new employment opportunities. Brent’s contribution to the Board as a Director was outstanding and we wish him well in his future endeavours. Board Subcommittees The Board has a number of subcommittees and I wish to record my thanks for the Directors who have added these extra responsibilities to their Director duties: • Open Championships: Michael Smith (Chair), Paul Fyfe, Mike Howard • Audit and Risk: Anna Shires (Chair), Michael Smith, Adrienne Greenwood, Philip Hassall • High Performance: Murray Ward (Chair), Eileen Bateup, Adrienne Greenwood • PGA Alignment Project: Philip Hassall, Murray Ward, Paul Fyfe, Michael Smith • DotGolf Directors: Murray Ward (Chair), Eileen Bateup 14 • • • International Golf Federation Administration Women’s Chair: Patsy Hankins Asia Pacific Golf Confederation Executive Committee member: Philip Hassall R&A Rules and Amateur Status Committee: Dave Mangan Looking Forward While New Zealand Golf has made good progress in 2014 there remains much work to do. Our new strategic direction provides the road map forward however we are conscious a great deal of dedicated hard work will need to be undertaken in order to achieve the targets we have set ourselves. Improving the health of our sport is vital to us all and there is much work we need to do in the future if we are to build on our success in this area. Golf is a sport that has a proud history and fine traditions. While remaining conscious of this legacy, we do need to look ahead differently if we are to succeed. The world outside is changing at a rapid pace and we must ensure that the rate of change within the golf sector keeps pace. We have a wonderful network of clubs and assets around the country and it is our responsibility to do our best to safeguard the future of the sport in New Zealand. Omaha Beach Golf Club As a final note, we offer our thanks to the community of golf for their contribution to the game. Most people who contribute to the game of golf in our District Associations and Clubs do so on a voluntary basis and for this we offer our sincere thanks and appreciation.

The financial statements comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the statements of financial performance, movements in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Board's responsibility for the financial statements The board is responsible for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand that give a true and fair view of the matters to which they relate, and for such internal control as the board determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error. • comply with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand; • give a true and fair view of the financial position of the incorporated society as at 31 December 2014 and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended. Other matter The financial statements of New Zealand Golf Incorporated, for the year ended 31 December 2013, were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements on 2 April 2014. Report on other legal and regulatory requirements In accordance with the requirements of sections 16(1)(d) and 16(1)(e) of the Financial Reporting Act 1993, we report that: • we have obtained all the information and explanations that we have required; and • in our opinion, proper accounting records have been kept by New Zealand Golf Incorporated as far as appears from our examination of those records. Auditor’s responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. 17 April 2015 Auckland An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the incorporated society’s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view of the matters to which they relate 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 incorporated society's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates, as well as evaluating the presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Subject to certain restrictions, partners and employees of our firm may also deal with the incorporated society on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the business of the incorporated society. These matters have not impaired our independence as auditor of the incorporated society. The firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, the incorporated society. 22 New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 23 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Statement of Financial Performance FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 NOTES 2014 $ 2013 $ 2 2,403,987 2,454,882 765,000 821,217 64,065 67,524 REVENUE Affiliation Fees Government Grants Interest Revenue 3 MAP Subscriptions 201,140 224,733 Sponsorship & Grants 483,448 649,992 R&A Grant New Zealand Men’s Open - Revenue Sundry Income Share of Associate Surplus 177,532 8,000 4 5,900 - 5 525,690 478,200 23 121,843 40,000 4,748,605 4,744,548 3,067,071 TOTAL REVENUE EXPENSES Junior Golf New Zealand Golf Services 7 3,235,117 New Zealand Men’s Open - Expenses 4 211,683 13,637 11,241 13,976 New Zealand Women’s Open - Expenses Elite Development & Events 8 824,738 947,546 Golf Development 9 32,077 14,403 Junior Golf 10 223,025 403,026 Mutual Assistance Plan 11 163,172 154,220 Depreciation 63,612 68,923 Amortisation 35,130 7,331 4,799,795 4,690,133 (51,190) 54,415 (51,190) 54,415 NZG Accumulated Funds (51,190) 54,415 TOTAL ALLOCATIONS (51,190) 54,415 TOTAL EXPENSES NET OPERATING SURPLUS / (DEFICIT) FOR THE YEAR 6 NET SURPLUS/ (DEFICIT) FOR YEAR ALLOCATED AS FOLLOWS New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 25 Statement of Financial Position Munchin Keh AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2014 NOTES EQUITY 2014 $ 2013 $ 1,610,737 1,661,927 296,454 426,512 CURRENT ASSETS Cash and Bank Balances 12 Investments 13 594,346 870,965 Trade and Other Receivables 14 699,856 614,618 Inventories 15 32,434 39,887 Loan Receivable - Current 16 119,690 119,690 37,517 15,203 1,780,297 2,086,875 217,771 378,092 31,903 23,524 GST Receivable TOTAL CURRENT ASSETS CURRENT LIABILITIES Trade and Other Payables 17 PAYE Payable Provisions 18 26,500 26,500 Employee Benefits Payable 19 124,657 104,141 Income in Advance 30,799 65,326 148,868 158,884 222,467 222,467 TOTAL CURRENT LIABILITIES 802,965 978,934 WORKING CAPITAL 977,332 1,107,941 16 116,146 235,836 Property, Plant & Equipment 21 176,781 102,155 Intangible Assets 22 127,414 74,524 Investment Associate 23 213,064 141,471 633,405 553,986 1,610,737 1,661,927 Player Trusts Sir Bob Charles Scholarship Statement of Movements in Equity FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 Equity at start of the year Net operating surplus / (deficit) for the year TOTAL EQUITY AT END OF THE YEAR NOTES 20 NON CURRENT ASSETS Loan Receivable - Non-Current 2014 $ 2013 $ 1,661,927 1,607,512 (51,190) 54,415 1,610,737 1,661,927 TOTAL NON CURRENT ASSETS NET ASSETS New Zealand Golf Chairman Paul Fyfe 15th April 2015 26 New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 27 Statement of Cashflow FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 NOTES 2014 $ 2013 $ 4,412,860 4,649,833 CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES Receipts from Operations Interest Received Payments to Suppliers and Employees Net GST (Paid) / Received NET CASH INFLOW / (OUTFLOW) FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES 28 42,450 36,992 (4,713,665) (4,307,323) (22,314) 93,191 (280,669) 472,693 50,250 50,249 CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES Dividends Received - Associate Payments made for Purchase of Property, Plant & Equipment (138,237) (10,835) (38,019) (60,000) (126,006) (20,586) - - TOTAL NET CASH INFLOW / (OUTFLOW) (406,675) 452,107 Opening Cash and Bank Balances and Investments Balance 1,297,477 845,370 890,800 1,297,477 Payments made for Purchase of Intangibles NET CASH INFLOW / (OUTFLOW) FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES NET CASH INFLOW / (OUTFLOW) FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES CLOSING CASH AND BANK BALANCES AND INVESTMENTS BALANCE The accompanying notes form part of and are to be read in conjunction with these financial statements. LOVE Golf Shoot Lydia Ko & Israel Dagg 28 New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 29 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS d)Receivables 1. Statement of Accounting Policies e) Inventories Basis of Preparation New Zealand Golf (Inc) (the “Organisation”) is an incorporated society registered under the Incorporated Societies Act 1908. The financial statements comprise statements of: financial performance; movements in equity; statement of financial position; statement of cashflows; accounting policies; the notes to these financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand. They comply with approved Financial Reporting Standards (FRSs) and Statements of Standard Accounting Practice (SSAPs) as appropriate for entities that qualify for and apply differential reporting concessions. From 1 April 2014, the new Financial Reporting Act 2013 ( “FRA 2013”) has come into force replacing the Financial Reporting Act 1993, this is effective for entities reporting under the Charities Act 2005 with reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2015. This will be effective for the organisations 31 December 2016 year end. For New Zealand Golf (Inc), a registered charity with the Charities Commission, there will be statutory financial reporting obligations which require preparation of financial statements in accordance with the prescribed accounting standards by the External Reporting Board (XRB) - a new suite of accounting standards for notfor-profit public benefit entities (NFP PBEs). Charities which meet the definition of ‘large’ (defined as having expenses in excess of $ 30 million) will be in Tier 1 (full reporting) of the NZ PBE Accounting Standards Framework, while those with operating expenditure between $2 million to $30 million will be in Tier 2 (reduced disclosures regime). Based on the current expenditure, New Zealand Golf (Inc) would be a Tier 2 reporting entity. Differential Reporting The Organisation qualifies for differential reporting as it is not publicly accountable and is not large as defined in the Framework for 30 Differential Reporting. All available differential reporting exemptions allowed under the framework for differential reporting have been adopted except for: • FRS 9 – Information to be disclosed in the financial statements, where some additional disclosures have been made. • FRS 3 – Accounting for Property, Plant and Equipment, where the Organisation has not opted to align depreciation rates with those set by the Inland Revenue Department of New Zealand. • FRS 10 - Statement of Cash Flows, where the Organisation has opted to present a cash flow statement. Measurement Base The measurement base adopted is historical cost, except for financial instruments which are initially recognised at fair value Specific Accounting Policies a) Investment in Associate Associates are entities in which the Organisation, either directly or indirectly, has a significant but not controlling interest. The Associate’s results are included in the statement of financial performance, using the equity method. The investment in the Associate is carried in the Organisation’s statement of financial position at cost plus acquisition change in the Organisation’s share of net assets in the Associate, less any impairment value. b) Cash and bank balances Cash and bank balances are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, with original maturity dates less than 90 days. Cash and bank balances with original maturities that exceed 90 days are recognised as investments. c)Investments Investments are stated at cost less impairment. Receivables are stated at estimated realisable value after providing against debts where collection is doubtful. Bad debts are written off in the period which they are identified. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and the net realisable value. Cost is based on the firstin first-out principle and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location. f) Property, Plant & Equipment Items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost and depreciated in note g). Initial cost includes the purchase consideration, or fair value in the case of donated assets and those costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition for its intended use. Any subsequent expenditure that increases the economic benefits derived from an asset is capitalised. Expenditure on repairs and maintenance that does not increase the economic benefits of an asset is expensed in the period it is incurred. Items of property, plant and equipment are written down immediately if impairment in the value of the asset causes its recoverable amount to fall below its carrying amount. The impairment is recognised in the statement of financial performance. Where an item of property, plant and equipment is disposed of, the gain or loss recognised in the statement of financial performance is calculated at the difference between the net sale price and the carrying amount of the asset. Any revaluation surplus is reduced or increased by the amount applicable to that item. g) Depreciation 10 years 4 years SL SL i) Taxation New Zealand Golf is exempt from tax due to its status as an amateur sports promoter under the current tax legislation. j) Goods and Services Tax (GST) The financial statements have been prepared on a GST exclusive basis, except accounts receivable and accounts payable which are stated inclusive of GST. k) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Organisation has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made as to the amount of the obligation. l) Revenue Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Organisation and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of GST and discounts. The following specific recognition criteria must be met before revenue is recognised: Government Grants, Grants & Sponsorship Government Grants, Grants & Sponsorship received are recognised as revenue when they are received, unless there are contractual conditions attached that remain to be fulfilled, or if any are received in advance. Interest Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis (SL) as indicated below. Leasehold Improvements Office Equipment IT Equipment Tournament Equipment Trademarks Websites 10 years 4 years 4 years 4 years SL SL SL SL h) Intangible Assets Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Intangible assets are amortised as outlined below. Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method. m)Impairment The carrying value of each asset is assessed for indicators of impairment at reporting date. Where the estimated recoverable amount of the asset is less that its carrying amount, the asset is written down. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell, and value in use. Any impairment loss is recognised in the statement of financial performance. New Zealand Golf 2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements 31 n)Leases Leases or hire purchase contracts where the Organisation assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Operating Leases Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of financial performance on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Any lease incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. 5.

Investment in Associate 20.Sir Bob Charles Scholarship In November 2001 the Organisation paid $140,000 to acquire 500 shares, representing 50% of the issued shares of New Zealand Golf Network Ltd (‘NZGN’). In December 2001, NZGN issued a further 50,000 shares, of which the Organisation acquired 25,000 for the consideration of $1.00 per share; 15,000 shares remain unpaid and uncalled. The Sir Bob Charles Scholarship has been accounted for as a separate liability account. These funds are invested on behalf of Sir Bob Charles where the Organisation can only use the interest for Scholarship payments. In October 2012 the shareholders of NZGN resolved to reduce the number of shares on issue to 20,000, of which now the Organisation holds 10,000, thereby cancelling 15,500 shares that the organisation owned. To maximise interest revenue from the funds, the funds are invested in high interest term deposits with New Zealand registered banks - refer note 13. NZGN’s primary business is the operation of the Slope Handicap system on behalf of the Organisation and the development of golf management system software. NZGN has a balance date of 31 March and the entity is not audited. The Directors of New Zealand Golf Network are not aware of any significant events or transactions since NZGN’s balance date. 21.

Going Concern A Heads of Agreement was entered into by the Organisation and the New Zealand Professional Golf Association (PGA) on 23 April 2013. The intention of this agreement was to create a whole of golf strategic framework and investigate any alignment or integration opportunities. An Establishment Committee is tasked to recommend the approach to potential alignment or integration of the NZPGA and the Organisation, and to oversee any change process necessary. The outcome of this process is yet to be finalised, however the Directors believe the outcome will not affect the going concern assumption of the Organisation as a continuing entity. The Directors have continued to adopt the going concern assumption of the New Zealand Golf Inc. for the year ended 31 December 2014.
