topic how are collins Foods products and service models key to its businesses? summary Collins Foods believes its KFC product offering of chicken pieces, burgers, wraps and snacks provides the following competitive benefits: Product freshness and quality, with between four and seven deliveries of fresh products to each restaurant per week; Recognised flavour from KFCs secret blend of 11 herbs and spices; Sale of chicken on a per-piece basis enables application of marinade (giving KFC its flavour profile), and improves portability of the product. This enables a higher gross margin than if sold on a per-chicken basis; and Faster cooking time compared to barbecuing techniques enables Collins Foods to reduce wastage and to respond more quickly to changes in customer demand. Collins Foods has a track record of introducing new product initiatives and LTOs, including those targeted at the growing in-between meal snacking market. Collins Foods sets the prices of its products which enables it to adjust prices where appropriate to allow for regional variations and respond to changes in input costs. It also assists Collins Foods to keep prices competitive and offer customers value for money. Sizzlers primary product offering is its signature salad and beverage bar (which includes soups, salads, pasta and desserts). It also serves grilled items including chicken, red meat and seafood. Sizzler operates a pay first, unlimited self service model that allows customers to select, order and pay for their meals before being seated at a table. This model reduces costs by requiring fewer staff, and increases revenues through higher average table turns than if Sizzler operated as a traditional table service restaurant. It also assists Sizzler to offer customers value for money. What are the advertising and marketing arrangements? Both the KFC and Sizzler brands attract customers to Collins Foods restaurants. Collins Foods invests at least 6% of annual KFC revenue in advertising and promotion of the KFC brand: 5% of annual KFC revenue paid to ADCO which operates as a national KFC advertising body; and At least a further 1% of annual KFC revenue on local advertising and marketing. National KFC marketing provides a number of benefits to Collins Foods including: The development and maintenance of a strong and consistent brand throughout Australia; Participation in the sponsorship of high profile events and organisations that would be difficult or impossible to sponsor on an individual operator basis; Discounted rates from scale buying of media; and The development of quality marketing programmes through Yum! and Collins Foods sharing of costs and combined expertise in media production and buying. Collins Foods spends approximately 4%-5% of annual Sizzler revenue on Sizzler advertising and marketing including television, direct mail, print, radio and social media.

Yum! is one of the worlds largest restaurant chains by number of system restaurants 1 and is the global owner and franchisor of the KFC brand. Collins Foods operates all its KFC restaurants under single-site franchise agreements and various ancillary agreements with Yum!.

The occurrence of a serious food-poisoning incident at a KFC or Sizzler restaurant (including restaurants operated by others as discussed below under Brand and reputation calamity) is likely to have very significant consequences for Collins Foods like-branded restaurants. security of supply chain There is a risk that the supply chain for one or more of Collins Foods restaurants could be materially disrupted (for example, by the occurrence of a natural disaster or industry-wide event) with the result that sufficient quantities of supplies are not delivered on time. There is a risk that Yum! could terminate KFC franchise arrangements with Collins Foods as a result of a material breach by Collins Foods of its obligations to Yum! under those arrangements (including to refrain from damaging the KFC brand, a failure to upgrade its KFC restaurants to Yum!s brand standards, or if a person acquires control of Collins Foods without Yum!s prior consent). There is a possibility that this would result in Collins Foods being unable to conduct any business from the KFC restaurants sites, or unable to conduct a business that generates revenues equal to those currently being generated, or the cessation of business at all sites and the sale of the business assets to a third party or to Yum!. change in regulation There is a risk that laws or regulations could be introduced that seek to reduce the advertising or consumption of foods sold by QSRs generally which would affect Collins Foods KFC restaurants and potentially its Sizzler restaurants. Collins Foods is not aware of any specific proposals that are currently being considered in Australia (and it is therefore difficult to ascertain the likely consequences for Collins Foods of any such development); however, there is the potential for such measures to materially reduce revenues, increase its costs or cause both to arise. There is a risk that some incident beyond the control of Collins Foods could occur which would have the effect of reducing consumer confidence or preferences for the KFC or Sizzler brands or for any of the component products sold by those businesses, such as: The occurrence of a food safety incident at a KFC or Sizzler restaurant belonging to a separate franchisee elsewhere in Australia or overseas; A widespread loss of consumer confidence in one or more products; or A widespread loss of consumer confidence in the food safety procedures in the industry as a whole.

2.2.1 What is KFCs position in the Australian restaurant industry?


KFC restaurants operate in the quick service restaurant (QSR) market which is a segment of the Australian restaurant industry. Restaurants in the QSR market seek to differentiate themselves from other restaurant formats through a focus on convenience, consistency, speed of service and value for money. The QSR market comprises both chained and non-chained restaurant formats. KFC restaurants are part of the chained format, which is the faster growing component of the QSR market. Chained QSR restaurants can benefit from well known branding and efficiencies associated with standardised restaurant formats and menus, and centralised administration. In 2011, Euromonitor International forecast the chained QSR market to generate total revenue in Australia of approximately $11.0 billion, and grow at a CAGR of 8.0% from 2011-2013 2. the Australian Qsr market Australian QSR market(a)

Collins Foods believes that the scale and distribution of its KFC restaurant network provides a number of benefits including: Limited reliance on the earnings of any particular restaurant with no individual KFC restaurant contributing more than 3% to Collins Foods KFC EBITDA 1 in FY2011; Close proximity of its restaurants to existing and potential customers; High brand exposure, stemming from increased effectiveness of advertising campaigns; Enhanced ability to secure new sites (given its status as a large, established operator of restaurants); Position as a significant and valuable franchisee to Yum!; Ability to relocate staff between restaurants to optimise staffing levels; Economies of scale which facilitate a significant shared services platform (refer section 2.5); and The financial capacity to recruit and retain high quality staff and management.

Collins Foods believes that it would be difficult for a new QSR market entrant to establish a comparable network in Queensland for a reasonable economic cost given the capital outlay expected to be required to do so.

EBITDA before corporate costs.

2.2.3 What KFC restaurant formats does Collins Foods operate?


Collins Foods operates a variety of formats for its KFC restaurants. The formats are: Free standing drive through (FSDT) restaurants; Food court restaurants; and In-line restaurants.

This enables Collins Foods to position its KFC restaurants in more locations and service a greater cross section of customers. It also enables Collins Foods greater flexibility in establishing new restaurants, as it is able to select a restaurant format to target its specified geography and customer type. KFC restaurant formats FsDt 82 restaurants Stand-alone restaurants Dedicated internal and/or external seating Drive through and car park facilities Typically serve larger meal bundles (such as family meals), resulting in larger customer spend Food court 30 restaurants Restaurants located in shopping centres and food court areas Seating shared with other food operators Typically serve individual meal sizes and target lunchtime meals In-line 7 restaurants Restaurants located in shopping strips Street frontage in-line with other shops Dedicated internal seating Serve a combination of individual meal sizes and larger meal bundles

2.2.4 What are the KFC products and who are the customers?
KFC chicken offerings are sold in a variety of formats, including pieces, burgers and wraps. KFC restaurants also offer a variety of snacks to complement its main offerings, such as Crispy Strips, Popcorn Chicken and Krushers. Collins Foods believes its KFC product offering provides the following competitive benefits: Product freshness and quality (with between four and seven deliveries of fresh products into each restaurant per week); Recognised flavour from KFCs secret blend of 11 herbs and spices; Sale of chicken on a per-piece basis enables application of marinade (giving KFC its flavour profile), and improves portability of the product. This enables a higher gross margin than if sold on a per-chicken basis; and Faster cooking time compared to barbecuing techniques.

These benefits assist Collins Foods to provide a consistent product offering and convenient service to its customers. KFC products cater to different customer demands at various times throughout the day. The lunchtime (10am-3pm) and snacking (3pm-5pm) trade typically targets males in the 18-24 age demographic with individual meal offerings, whereas dinner (5pm onwards) primarily caters to the family market through full meal replacement bundles. In FY2011, individual and family meals represented approximately 96% of Collins Foods KFC sales. Collins Foods can vary the prices of its KFC products across its restaurants. This enables it to adjust prices to allow for regional variations; for example, higher delivery costs for restaurants in regional areas. Collins Foods offers new products and LTOs in its KFC restaurants to maintain and grow sales from existing restaurants, as well as sustain brand awareness among its customers, reach new consumer demographics and address different parts of the day. (Further details on the development of new products and LTOs are provided in section 2.2.8.) Since January 2006, Collins Foods has introduced 27 new KFC products to its KFC restaurants. Key examples of new products include the All Stars Box, Mega Bucket and Krushers. Individual meals 60% of FY2011 KFC revenue Family meals 36% of FY2011 KFC revenue snacks 4% of FY2011 KFC revenue

Prompted awareness: Respondents were asked which chains they were aware of from a list of fast food and snack food chains.

To maintain and promote the awareness of the KFC brand, KFC franchisees in Australia typically invest at least 6% of annual revenue in advertising and promotion. This comprises 5% of annual revenue paid to ADCO which operates as a national KFC advertising body, and at least a further 1% of annual revenue spent on local advertising and marketing. Yum! also contributes funds to ADCO in respect of its own KFC restaurant network in Australia. There are four directors of ADCO nominated by Australian franchisees (including one director nominated by Collins Foods), and four directors nominated by Yum! (including currently the Chair who holds a casting vote). Examples of the national advertising and marketing operations of ADCO include: Advertising of the KFC brand and its products on television every week of the year. Typically, two LTO promotions run simultaneously, with one of these promotions aimed at the individual meal segment and the other aimed at the home meal replacement segment. KFC LTOs aim to promote product freshness and innovation, and provide a call to action to both potential and existing customers; and Sponsorship of a number of high profile events and organisations such as Cricket Australia (through events such as the KFC Twenty20 Big Bash) and World Hunger Relief. The development and maintenance of a strong and consistent brand throughout Australia; Participation in the sponsorship of prominent events and organisations that would be difficult or impossible to sponsor on an individual operator basis; and The production and execution of quality marketing programmes.

This national marketing provides a number of benefits to Collins Foods including:

2.2.6 What are the KFC supply arrangements?


Collins Foods can use the Yum! supply network, comprising suppliers that Yum! has sourced, or can select its own suppliers, provided that they meet standards mandated by Yum!. Yum! negotiates material supply contracts in consultation with the Yum! Supply Council, which comprises representatives from both Yum! and major franchisees. Collins Foods holds one of the six seats on this council. This allows Collins Foods to convey its views on the purchasing and other supply arrangements made available via the Yum! supply network. Collins Foods works to maintain strong, long-standing relationships with key suppliers (including suppliers of chicken and other key inputs) by undertaking periodic business reviews and joint efficiency initiatives. Collins Foods size assists it to secure required supply volumes at competitive prices. To the extent practicable, Collins Foods agrees pricing for key commodities in advance to assist it to forecast its forward cost structure. Pricing for over 90% of key commodities for its KFC restaurants is already contracted for FY2012.

2.2.7 What is the relationship with Yum!, the owner of the KFC brand?
Yum! is one of the worlds largest restaurant chains in terms of system restaurants and is the global owner and franchisor of the KFC brand. Yum! operates in over 100 countries and territories with nearly 38,000 restaurants, including more than 15,000 owned or franchised KFC restaurants. Collins Foods receives a number of benefits from its relationship with Yum!, including: Use of the highly recognised KFC brand, and associated intellectual property; Access to products and marketing strategies developed by Yum!s investment in research and development; Participation in national KFC advertising and marketing arrangements; Ongoing training and assistance; and Access to the Yum! supply chain and buying power, which can assist to reduce supply costs.

Collins Foods operates all its KFC restaurants under single-site franchise agreements and various ancillary agreements (discussed further below) with Yum! as franchisor. Upon Completion of the Offer, Collins Foods will pay upfront franchise fees 1 and new franchise agreements with Yum! will commence for 116 Collins Foods KFC restaurants, with an average term of approximately 10 years 2. Upon expiry, Collins Foods also has the option to renew each of those franchise agreements for a further 10 years on payment of the required fee at the time of renewal 3. Under these franchise agreements, Collins Foods must pay a royalty fee of 6% of annual revenues of its KFC restaurants to Yum!. While currently the only KFC operator in Queensland, Collins Foods does not have exclusive rights to operate KFC restaurants in that state. Refer to section 8.1 for a summary of key terms and conditions of these arrangements. Franchise arrangements with Yum! are significant to Collins Foods KFC business. In addition to royalty and advertising arrangements, Collins Foods has a number of further obligations under the franchise agreements, including ensuring its KFC restaurants are upgraded to the brand standards mandated by Yum! (refer to sections 2.2.8 and 8.1.2). If Yum! terminated or refused to renew a franchise agreement for a particular site, Collins Foods could not continue to operate that site as a KFC restaurant (or certain other types of restaurant refer to sections 4.1.3 and 8.1.1). Collins Foods intends to continue to maintain a close working relationship with Yum! and adhere to Yum!s branding and refurbishment requirements. Collins Foods continues to work closely with Yum! through its membership of a number of KFC councils which oversee key areas of KFC operations in Australia. These include ADCO, the Supply Council, the Development Council and the Operations Council. As Australias largest KFC franchisee, Collins Foods is an active member of these councils.

2.2.8 What are the strategies for KFC?


Collins Foods KFC strategy is to remain one of the pre-eminent QSR restaurant operators in Queensland, with growth strategies focusing on: Expanding product range and day parts; Refurbishing its existing restaurant network; Establishing new restaurants; Ongoing operational excellence; and If appropriate acquisition opportunities arise, it will also consider expanding into other states of Australia (subject to Yum! approval).

Expanding product range and day parts The introduction of new products and the expansion of existing products to target new day parts is designed to increase the revenue and profitability of existing restaurants. Future initiatives for Collins Foods in this area may include: Extending opening hours to target different parts of the day: Late night trading hours have been trialled at 10 KFC restaurants on the Gold Coast and Brisbane in 2010, with further testing being considered by Collins Foods; and Evaluating the introduction of a breakfast menu. This is currently being trialled by Yum! at Sydney Airport.

The franchise fee is $43,800 (plus GST) per KFC restaurant, which will be paid out of available cash. Collins Foods has decided not to renew agreements for three of its restaurants as it plans to close these restaurants within the next five years. The renewal fee is 50% of this initial amount (refer to footnote 1 above), indexed by an agreed US consumer price index, per restaurant.

27 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

Regularly refreshing the existing product range and improving operations: Introducing new product initiatives and LTOs, including those targeted at the growing in-between meal snacking market; and Introducing new cooking procedures; for example, Collins Foods plans to roll-out the use of high oleic canola oil in its KFC restaurants to reduce the amount of saturated fat in products.

Refurbishing existing KFC restaurants Collins Foods has an active programme to refurbish existing restaurants. Restaurant refurbishments aim to improve the appearance of the restaurant, increase seating capacity, increase speed of service and throughput and/or restructure behind-the-counter meal preparation areas. These refurbishments seek to improve revenue, labour efficiency and cost control. The table below describes the types of restaurant refurbishment and provides an indication of the historic per restaurant capital expenditure for each type of refurbishment. $ million refurbishment type Rebranding Description A rebrand ensures the restaurant remains at minimum Yum! brand standard Upgrades to the restaurant are focused on improving the appearance of the restaurant to customers (such as signage) Reimaging A restaurant reimage typically improves the facilities, seating, layout and back of house operations There is generally a higher capital expenditure for a reimage than a rebrand Relocation A relocation is the closure of a restaurant and reopening at another location This occurs when either an appropriate lease renewal cannot be renegotiated or the site no longer satisfies the demographic profile Rebuild

A range of factors affect the success of a restaurant refurbishment, including restaurant location, the extent and nature of the QSR competition the restaurant faces, the proximity of the restaurant to other existing KFC restaurants as well as the prevailing economic conditions at the time of refurbishment. Since September 2005, Collins Foods has refurbished 35 of its KFC restaurants.

Collins Foods intends to refurbish 22 KFC restaurants in FY2012 and a further 62 restaurants over the following four years, which is consistent with Collins Foods obligations under its arrangements with Yum! to ensure that all of its restaurants satisfy Yum!s brand standards by that time. All of these restaurants have been identified by Collins Foods and approved for refurbishment by Yum! subject to Yum!s approval of specific refurbishment plans. Refer to sections 8.1.1 to 8.1.2 for further information on these arrangements with Yum!. Following this period, Collins Foods intends to maintain a regular refurbishment programme consistent with its ongoing business strategy and franchise obligations.

Further details on its processes for locating and developing sites are provided in section 2.5.1. In FY2012, Collins Foods plans to open six new KFC restaurants at sites which have already been identified. A further 19 geographic areas that Collins Foods believes could be suitable for new restaurant sites in the following four years have also been identified, and are currently being investigated. Yum! has agreed to the development of seven sites per year in Queensland for the next five years (subject to site availability and final Yum! approval). The table below shows the forecast FY2012 revenue and EBITDA impact of new restaurants, as well as the estimated annualised contribution. $ million Revenue EBITDA

Collins Foods has achieved strong average returns from the establishment of new restaurants. There have been 12 new KFC restaurants opened since September 2005, which have generated an average weighted cash ROIC of 38% 1 per restaurant in the year following opening. The majority of restaurants opened since September 2005 have been located in food courts, which incur a lower average build cost compared to the FSDT format. Collins Foods also assesses the closure of restaurants in appropriate circumstances. For example, it has closed restaurants if commercial renewal terms could not be reached with the lessor, or if management believed that the demographics or market conditions at a particular restaurant no longer supported the restaurant. Collins Foods has closed five restaurants in the last five years, and expects to close three restaurants within the next five years. $ million Location Restaurant format Opening date(s) Capital expenditure Year 1 sales Year 1 EBITDA Year 1 ROIC

Operational excellence
Collins Foods is continually focused on improving the KFC customer experience, the quality and skills of its workforce, and the speed of service. Improving these areas drives increased restaurant revenue, reduces costs and enhances profitability. Continuing to enrich the customer experience: Initiatives such as the CHAMPS mystery shopper programme (CHAMPS). Twice each month a mystery shopper employed by an external company assesses each KFC restaurant on a number of customer focused key performance indicators (cleanliness, hospitality, accuracy, maintenance, product quality and speed of service). Feedback is provided to Collins Foods to assist it to improve its operations and customer service. Employee skills training programmes aimed at improving customer service and nationally accredited retail and management traineeships Introducing self-ordering automated kiosks. This is currently being tested by Collins Foods at five restaurants, with further trials planned. To date, average customer spend at kiosks has been higher than at traditional front counters; The introduction of a tap and go contactless payment card system which will increase the speed of the customer order process; and Evaluating the introduction of an online ordering system, to drive revenue growth, assist in the optimisation of labour and service utilisation, reduce costs and increase profitability.

Collins Foods annual KFC same store sales growth (SSSG) has averaged approximately 5.9% since FY2002. The expansion of KFCs product range and day parts, as well as initiatives of the nature referred to above, have also contributed to this growth. Collins Foods intends to pursue this strategy to drive KFCs SSSG in the future. SSSG FY2002-FY2012(a)

Collins Foods KFC restaurants recorded negative SSSG in FY2010, which Collins Foods believes was a result of weak economic conditions in Queensland attributable to the global financial crisis reducing consumer confidence and levels of activity in the tourism industry, competitors increasing the opening hours of their restaurants and lower than expected levels of sales of the Cayan Grill LTO. In the fourth quarter of FY2011, the rate of growth in total turnover was greater for the Queensland takeaway food services market than for the Australian takeaway food services market.

Potential KFC consolidation opportunities There is a potential opportunity for Collins Foods to expand by acquiring KFC restaurants from smaller KFC franchisees in other Australian states, subject to approval from Yum!. Collins Foods has more than twice as many KFC restaurants in its network than the next largest franchisee in Australia. While Collins Foods is not currently involved in any such discussions, the ability to introduce Collins Foods systems, centralised shared service functions (discussed in section 2.5) and its scale advantages, may allow Collins Foods to generate performance improvements in acquired restaurants.

Sizzler Australia

2.3.1 What is Sizzlers position in the Australian restaurant industry?


In Australia, Sizzler operates in the casual dining market, which is a segment of the Australian restaurant industry. Casual dining is characterised by a restaurant format that offers seated dining in a relaxed, informal atmosphere. Sizzler operates a pay first, unlimited self service model that allows customers to select, order and pay for their meals before being seated at a table. This model reduces costs by requiring fewer staff, and increases revenues through higher average table turns, than if Sizzler operated as a traditional table service restaurant. It also assists Collins Foods to offer customers value for money. In the casual dining segment, Sizzlers key competitors are: Licensed clubs including RSL, sports and surf lifesaving clubs; Pubs, hotels and bars; and Chained and non-chained cafs.

Key areas of competition among restaurants in the casual dining segment include location, food quality and innovation, value for money, child friendly atmosphere and speed of service. Collins Foods seeks to ensure that it offers its customers all of these factors across each of its Sizzler restaurants.

2.3.2 What is the scale of Collins Foods Sizzler business and where is it located?

As with its KFC restaurants, the scale of Collins Foods Sizzler restaurant network provides a number of benefits including: Limited reliance on the earnings of particular restaurants, with no individual Sizzler restaurant contributing more than 10% to Collins Foods Sizzler EBITDA 1 in FY2011; Close proximity of its restaurants to existing and potential customers; High brand exposure and increased effectiveness and efficiency of advertising campaigns; Enhanced ability to secure new sites (given its status as a large, established operator of restaurants); and Economies of scale which facilitate a significant shared services platform (refer section 2.5) and ability to leverage the product sourcing scale of Collins Foods KFC business for common food inputs, such as chicken and beverages.

2.3.3 What Sizzler restaurant formats does Collins Foods operate?


Sizzler operates two restaurant formats, being free standing and shopping centre located restaurants. These formats enable Collins Foods to position its Sizzler restaurants in different locations and service a greater cross section of customers. Sizzler restaurant formats Free standing 18 restaurants Stand-alone restaurants Dedicated internal seating Dedicated car park facilities shopping centre 8 restaurants Restaurants located in major shopping strips Internal dedicated seating Typically located near the entertainment area of the shopping centre so as to capture the lunch and dinner trade

Sizzler restaurants are open to customers seven days a week for lunch and dinner, with the majority of restaurants opening for breakfast on Sundays.

2.3.4 What are the Sizzler products and service structures?


Sizzlers key product offering is its signature unlimited self service salad and beverage bar. The salad bar includes soups, salads, desserts and is the primary purchase for approximately 57% of customers. In addition, Sizzler offers various grilled items such as chicken, red meat and seafood. Menus and pricing structures vary during the day to meet changing customer demands. Collins Foods Sizzler restaurants promote quality, abundance, value, choice and convenience to their customers. All salads are produced fresh daily, which allows Collins Foods to maintain the quality of its core menu item. Sizzler has a dedicated food and menu development team whose role is to create new menu items to provide variety for customers. This is an important part of Collins Foods Sizzler strategy, as over 80% of visits to a Sizzler are repeat visits.

EBITDA before corporate costs.

35 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

Collins Foods sets the price of its salad bar and grill offerings after considering a range of factors including: minimum required margin levels, competitor pricing levels for equivalent offerings and overall customer sensitivity to certain price points. If required, Sizzler can vary the composition of the salad bar to adjust for changes in the availability and cost of ingredients in order to maintain its margins. salad bar grill items Fy2011 sizzler meal sales by menu item(a)

Sizzler is targeted at families and women aged between 24 and 40 who Collins Foods understands seek consistent quality and convenient service that is family friendly and offers a variety of choice at reasonable prices.

2.3.5 What are the Sizzler advertising and marketing arrangements?


The Sizzler brand attracts customers to Collins Foods restaurants. To maintain and promote the awareness of the Sizzler brand, Collins Foods invests approximately 4%-5% of total Sizzler annual revenues on advertising and marketing. Collins Foods markets the Sizzler brand through television, direct mail, print, radio and social media. Three examples of Sizzlers advertising and marketing efforts include: Television advertising campaigns in Queensland and Western Australia to promote each seasonal menu; Sponsoring a 30 minute food-based radio programme in Queensland; and Sponsorship of various sporting teams including the Gold Coast Titans and the Oceans 38 Surf Life Saving competitions.

2.3.6 What are the Sizzler supply arrangements?


Collins Foods works to maintain strong relationships with existing suppliers, and seeks to leverage its KFC supply relationships where possible. Collins Foods Sizzler restaurants contract fewer inputs in advance of immediate requirements than its KFC restaurants given Sizzlers focus on seasonal produce, which assists in the regular variation of the composition of the salad bar.

2.3.7 What are the strategies for Sizzler?
Collins Foods strategy for its Australian Sizzler business is to continue to offer customers value for money and variety of choice, underpinned by its signature salad bar. Collins Foods growth strategies for Sizzler Australia will focus on: Refurbishing existing restaurants; Opening new restaurants; and Operational initiatives and innovations to increase the efficiency, revenues and profitability of its existing restaurants.

Refurbishing existing Sizzler restaurants Collins Foods has an active programme to refurbish its existing restaurants. Through refurbishments, Sizzler seeks to increase in-restaurant seating capacity and modernise the overall restaurant layout with the goal of increasing customer numbers and restaurant profitability. Depending on the size and complexity, a refurbishment can cost between $0.2 million to $1.5 million. In FY2012, Collins Foods plans to refurbish four Sizzler restaurants. The table below shows the forecast FY2012 revenue and EBITDA impact of the restaurant refurbishment plan, as well as the estimated annualised contribution. $ million Revenue EBITDA

Opening new Sizzler restaurants Collins Foods has an active programme to identify potential new Sizzler restaurant sites. In FY2012, it plans to open two new Sizzler restaurants and has fully agreed lease terms for one restaurant and identified the target geographical area for the second restaurant. It will cost approximately $3.0 million to build each of these new Sizzler restaurants. Collins Foods has also identified seven further geographical areas in Queensland, Western Australia and New South Wales that may be suitable for new Sizzler restaurants in the next four years.

Two of the five restaurants have been excluded from the historic ROIC calculations as they have not traded for a full year.

Collins Foods is also investigating an alternative restaurant format, Sizzler Express which is a smaller footprint version of the current Sizzler restaurants. It is being assessed by Collins Foods for its potential to generate revenues in food court and kiosk locations where traditional Sizzler formats would not be suitable. Sizzler operational initiatives and innovations Operational initiatives and innovations have the potential to increase the efficiency, revenues and profitability of existing restaurants through: New menu items and improvements to its menu range. For example, recent changes to simplify Sizzlers menu had the effect of reducing order times and inventory levels and increasing the quality of the food served to customers; and Better labour and space utilisation in its restaurants.

Collins Foods annual Sizzler SSSG has averaged approximately 6.3% since FY2002. The implementation of operational initiatives and innovations have also contributed to this growth. Collins Foods intends to pursue this strategy to drive Sizzlers SSSG in the future. SSSG FY2002-FY2012(a)

2.4 Sizzler Asia
Collins Foods is the franchisor of 59 Sizzler restaurants in Asia, where its western style menu has an established track record and provides a platform for future growth. Its restaurants are located in Thailand, China, Singapore, Korea, Japan and the United Arab Emirates. In FY2011, system-wide sales generated by Collins Foods Sizzler franchisees in Asia were $98 million, of which the majority were in Thailand (57%) and Japan (24%). Sizzler Asias franchising model differs from Sizzler Australia (where Collins Foods owns and operates its own restaurants), and potentially enables Collins Foods to encourage the expansion of the Sizzler brand in Asia with lower capital requirements than under an owner/operator model. Another key difference is that Sizzler Asia offers a full service model given the relatively lower labour costs in Asia. Sizzler Asia(a) (number of franchised restaurants)

JAPAN (9) KOREA (2) CHINA (6)

One additional restaurant in the United Arab Emirates (not shown).

Under its franchise arrangements, Collins Foods has appointed a franchisee for each country (or in the case of China, a franchisee for each city) in which a Sizzler restaurant is to be established. Franchisees do not have exclusive rights to operate Sizzler in that country; however, the franchise arrangements are structured to encourage franchisees to grow restaurant numbers. Each franchised Sizzler restaurant in Asia is covered by a separate franchise agreement under which the franchisee must pay Collins Foods an initial franchise fee of between US$10,000 and US$50,000 and a royalty of between 2%-5% of revenue. Sizzler franchisees are required to comply with standards and procedural manuals supplied by Collins Foods. A typical franchise agreement provides for an initial 20 year term with a renewal option for an additional 20 years. Collins Foods Sizzler Asia strategy is to grow restaurant numbers (particularly with the existing partners in Thailand, Japan and China) and also expand into other South East Asian territories such as Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos through new and existing franchisees. Collins Foods believes its experience, established presence in Asia and current relationships with its larger franchisees is a solid platform from which to implement this strategy.

What are the shared services arrangements?

Collins Foods scale enables it to benefit from operating a shared services structure across its KFC and Sizzler restaurants. The key shared services are: property, human resources, quality control, IT and finance.

2.5.1 What are the centralised property services functions?


Dedicated team Collins Foods has a dedicated property services team that manages the site leases and renewal renegotiations for both its KFC and Sizzler branded restaurant sites. The team is also responsible for identifying potential sites for new KFC and Sizzler restaurants. This dedicated team assists Collins Foods to: Develop and maintain long-term relationships with landlords and property developers; Ensure it has access to a sufficient number of new sites and reduce the risk that Collins Foods could be unable to open new KFC or Sizzler restaurants in accordance with its capital expenditure programme; Reduce the risk that new restaurants are unprofitable because they are not supported by a sufficient catchment area or cannibalise revenue from existing restaurants; and Reduce the risk that the refurbishment of existing KFC and Sizzler restaurants is over-capitalised.

Management of existing leases Collins Foods attempts to stagger lease expiry dates over a number of years to minimise the number of leases that expire in any one single year, as well as to attempt to ensure the alignment of lease expiry dates with franchise renewal dates in the case of its KFC restaurants. Collins Foods has commenced a process to obtain consents from its landlords for the change of control arising from the Offer and does not expect any issues material to the business will arise in relation to the process. The chart below indicates the number of landlords across Collins Foods property portfolio (both KFC and Sizzler). Leases by landlord(a)

A profile of the lease expiry dates for the leases is provided below; the average remaining lease term for its KFC restaurants is approximately eight years, inclusive of renewal options.

Identification and assessment of new sites Collins Foods reviews and assesses potential new sites using a range of factors such as demographics, population and population growth, actual and expected timeframes for receiving government planning approvals and actual and expected commercial activity. An evaluation is performed to compare the potential site to established benchmarks for profitability and return on capital employed and to ensure that any cannibalisation of existing restaurant profitability is identified and minimised. Collins Foods also periodically considers developments in conjunction with petrol station operators to co-locate on larger regional sites. This assists Collins Foods by reducing the overall site cost and allowing it to access sites that are otherwise not economically viable.

41 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

2.5.2 What are the centralised employee functions?


Collins Foods employs a workforce comprising approximately 700 full time staff and 6,000 casual and part time staff, and manages the payroll and associated human resources functions centrally from its head office. Centralisation of these functions assists Collins Foods to apply consistent human resources policies and achieve economies of scale, thereby reducing costs and increasing profitability. Collins Foods has implemented specific strategies to attract and retain senior management with extensive experience in the QSR market and to maintain an experienced employee base. These strategies include: The use of incentive-based remuneration structures that are linked to key performance indicators; The availability of work skills and training programmes; and Opportunities to study towards nationally recognised qualifications.

All of these initiatives seek to lower the level of employee turnover experienced by Collins Foods. The benefits of lower staff turnover are: Improved customer service levels; Lower operational costs and increased efficiencies, revenues and profitability; and Reduced risks, including all of the key risks identified in section 4.1.

Collins Foods has a strong track record in the QSR and casual dining markets of retaining full time employees, assisted by its preference to promote internal candidates over external hiring. More than 15% of Collins Foods full time KFC employees have more than 15 years service.

2.5.3 What are the centralised quality control functions?


Collins Foods has a variety of formalised quality control systems and procedures in place, including: Operational procedures and manuals (the majority of which are provided by Yum! in the case of KFC), which cover food handling procedures that have been the subject of in-house and third party testing as well as occupational health and safety (OH&S) procedures to minimise the number and extent of OH&S incidents; The preparation and delivery to senior management (including the CEO and CFO) of operational reports, detailing all health and food safety issues; In-house and third party audits of customer service standards and compliance with food safety standards; and The installation of closed-circuit television systems in the majority of restaurants. Increase customer frequency; Reduce the risk of an operational lapse in food safety or sanitation procedures or malicious tampering (refer section 4.1.1) resulting in the occurrence of a serious food-poisoning incident; Ensure compliance with food industry regulations; and Reduce its exposure to litigation (refer section 4.2.11).

This assists Collins Foods to:

2.5.4 What are Collins Foods crisis and related management functions?
Collins Foods has an active programme to ensure that it is able to respond to an operational crisis including a food safety or sanitation incident (refer section 4.1.1) and has prepared and maintains a crisis manual. Collins Foods has also implemented operational changes in seeking to reduce the risk of such an incident occurring, including the installation of closed-circuit television cameras at the majority of its restaurants and a policy that at least one staff member should monitor customer access to the Sizzler salad bar. Collins Foods also maintains insurance cover for such events.

42 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

2 coMpANy oVerVIeW
2.5.5 What are the centralised IT and finance functions?
Collins Foods has dedicated IT and finance teams. It uses a number of third party IT and finance systems for both its KFC and Sizzler restaurants. These systems assist senior management to track Collins Foods actively on a daily basis across a number of key performance indicators including daily sales performance, inventory and staffing levels. At the restaurant level, each restaurant has a number of IT systems designed to maximise throughput and ensure ordering and food preparation efficiency. Collins Foods conducts periodic reviews of its systems, with the aim of optimising work processes and identifying and assessing operating efficiencies for potential implementation. Other controls such as double-keyed safes, periodic skimming of registers, detailed point of sale transaction recording, and the installation of closed-circuit television cameras in the majority of restaurants have also been implemented to lower inventory shrinkage and ensure cash handling procedures are adhered to.

2.5.6 What community initiatives is Collins Foods involved in?


Collins Foods is committed to supporting the communities in which it operates. Collins Foods launched a workplace giving programme in 2008, which provides employees with the opportunity to donate to charities through a pre-tax payroll contribution. Collins Foods also matches staff donations (up to an annual cap of $0.1 million).

The FY2009, FY2010 and FY2011 financial statements of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited have been audited by PwC, who have issued unqualified opinions in respect of all periods. SingCo Trading Pte Ltd, which will also become a controlled entity of Collins Foods Limited on Completion of the Offer, owns the Collins Foods Sizzler Asia business. Further information on the group structure is set out in section 6.1.3. The Historical Financial Information and the Forecast Financial Information has also been reviewed and reported on by PwCS, as set out in the Investigating Accountants Report in section 7. Investors should note the scope and limitations of the Investigating Accountants Report. The Financial Information has been prepared and presented in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles of Australian Accounting Standards, although it is presented in an abbreviated form insofar as it does not include all the disclosures, statements or comparative information as required by Australian Accounting Standards applicable to annual financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act.

Collins Foods key accounting policies are set out in the Appendix. Segmental disclosure of the Financial Information comprises the Collins Foods KFC business and the Collins Foods Sizzler business, as set out in section 3.6. These segments are based on Collins Foods management reporting system.

3.2.1 Preparation of Historical Financial Information


There are no actual historical consolidated results for Collins Foods Limited. The Historical Financial Information has been derived from the audited historical consolidated statutory financial statements of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited for FY2009, FY2010 and FY2011 after adjusting for pro forma transactions and/or other adjustments to reflect Collins Foods operations following Completion of the Offer and to eliminate non-recurring items, as set out in section 3.3.2, section 3.4.1 and section 3.5.1. Collins Foods has determined that the acquisition of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited by its wholly owned subsidiary on Completion of the Offer does not represent a business combination as outlined in Australian Accounting Standard AASB3 (AAsB3) for accounting purposes. The appropriate accounting treatment for recognising the new group structure is on the basis that the transaction is a form of capital reconstruction and group reorganisation. Therefore, the Financial Information included in this Prospectus has been prepared using the principles of a reverse acquisition by Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited of Collins Foods Limited. The Financial Information also reflects that a wholly owned subsidiary of Collins Foods Limited will acquire SingCo Trading Pte Ltd on Completion of the Offer. Collins Foods Limited has evaluated the substance of this transaction with reference to AASB3 and determined that the transaction represents a business combination as outlined in the standard. Accordingly, the Financial Information included in this Prospectus has been prepared using the principles of the acquisition method of accounting in respect of the acquisition of SingCo Trading Pte Ltd, as outlined in the Business combinations policy as set out in the Appendix. Investors should note that past results do not guarantee future performance.

3.2.2 Preparation of Forecast Financial Information


The pro forma consolidated forecast income and cash flow statements for FY2012 (pro Forma Forecast Financial Information) have been derived from the forecast statutory consolidated income and cash flow statements of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited for FY2012 after adjusting for pro forma transactions and/or other adjustments to reflect Collins Foods operations following Completion of the Offer and to eliminate non-recurring items, as set out in section 3.3.2 and section 3.5.1. The Forecast Financial Information has been prepared by the Directors based on an assessment of present economic and operating conditions and on a number of best estimate assumptions regarding future events and actions as set out in section 3.8.1 and section 3.8.2. This information is intended to assist investors in assessing the reasonableness and likelihood of the assumptions occurring, and is not intended to be a representation that the assumptions will occur. The Forecast Financial Information presented in this Prospectus has been reviewed by PwCS but has not been audited. Directors believe the best estimate assumptions when taken as a whole to be reasonable at the time of preparing this Prospectus. However, this information is not fact and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the Forecast Financial Information. Investors should be aware that the timing of actual events and the magnitude of their impact might differ from that assumed in preparing the Forecast Financial Information, and that this may have a material positive or material negative effect on Collins Foods actual financial performance or financial position. Accordingly, neither Collins Foods nor any other person can give investors any assurance that the outcomes discussed in the Forecast Financial Information will arise. The information in section 3 should be read in conjunction with the specific assumptions as set out in section 3.8.1, the general assumptions as set out in section 3.8.2, the sensitivities as set out in section 3.9, the risk factors as set out in section 4 and other information in this Prospectus. Collins Foods Limited has no intention to update or revise the Forecast Financial Information or other forward looking statements, or to publish prospective financial information in the future, regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this Prospectus, except where required by law.

The Pro Forma Historical Results are reconciled to the Historical Statutory Results (as defined in section 3.3.2). The Pro Forma Forecast Results are reconciled to the Forecast Statutory Results in section 3.3.2. FY2012 Forecast Statutory Results growth rates shown are relative to FY2011 Historical Statutory Results. This includes KFC and Sizzler Australia restaurants but does not include Sizzler Asia restaurants which are operated by franchisees and not Collins Foods. The average number of restaurants open during the year is a function of the number of new restaurants opened together with the impact of the temporary closure for, or reopening of existing restaurants from, refurbishment or relocation. The audited historical consolidated statutory NPAT and NPATA for FY2011 cannot be compared with the forecast statutory consolidated NPAT and NPATA for FY2012 to give meaningful growth percentages because of the change in capital structure that will occur on Completion of the Offer.

FY2009 had 53 trading weeks. All other years presented include 52 weeks. The revenue and NPAT associated with the additional week of trading in the FY2009 Historical Statutory Results has been removed from the FY2009 Pro Forma Historical Results. SingCo Trading Pte Ltd is the parent entity of Collins Foods Sizzler Asia business and will be acquired by a wholly owned subsidiary of Collins Foods Limited on Completion of the Offer. The adjustments comprise the recognition (in Australian dollars) of pre acquisition amounts in respect of the revenue and NPAT of Sizzler Asia as though SingCo Trading Pte Ltd had formed part of the Collins Foods consolidated group at the beginning of FY2009. The financial statements for SingCo Trading Pte Ltd were prepared in Singaporean dollars and audited in accordance with Singaporean accounting standards. Because no audited accounts in Australian dollars are available for SingCo Trading Pte Ltd, these adjustments have been made on the basis of unaudited historical management accounts for SingCo Trading Pte Ltd. Sizzler Australia received compensation from insurers in FY2009 and FY2010 following events which occurred prior to the commencement of FY2009. The benefit of these payments in the Historical Statutory Results has been removed from the Pro Forma Historical Results. Royalties paid by Collins Foods in respect of its KFC restaurants to Yum! have historically varied between 5% and 6% of Collins Foods KFC annual sales revenue. Effective from Completion of the Offer, Collins Foods will operate under new KFC franchise arrangements with Yum! that will increase the royalties paid by Collins Foods to Yum! under these arrangements to 6% of KFC annual sales revenue. This additional royalty cost is not reflected in the Historical Statutory Results or the Forecast Statutory Results for the period prior to Completion of the Offer. The adjustments reflect the increase in royalty costs as though it had occurred at the beginning of FY2009. Incremental costs associated with being a public company are not reflected in the Historical Statutory Results or the Forecast Statutory Results for the period prior to Completion of the Offer, but are included in the Pro Forma Historical Results and Pro Forma Forecast Results. Prior to Completion of the Offer, Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited operated under a different capital structure to that proposed to apply from Completion of the Offer. Accordingly, the interest costs reflected in the Historical Statutory Results and the Forecast Statutory Results prior to Completion of the Offer differ from those expected to be incurred from Completion of the Offer. The net interest expense included in the Historical Statutory Results and the Forecast Statutory Results for the period prior to Completion of the Offer has been adjusted to reflect the net interest expense that would have been incurred if the New Banking Facilities detailed in section 3.4.3 had been in place for the period prior to Completion of the Offer, using the base interest rates that prevailed at the time (BBSY) and margins as set out in the New Banking Facilities. In addition, the Forecast Statutory Results include as part of the Pre IPO Restructuring the write-off of capitalised borrowing costs relating to the capital structure in place prior to Completion of the Offer ($11.2 million pre-tax). An employee incentive scheme will be terminated upon Completion of the Offer. This adjustment removes the revaluation adjustments that were recognised in the Historical Statutory Results and are expected to be recognised in the Forecast Statutory Results prior to Completion of the Offer (in relation to that scheme). Fees for services charged by PEP Advisory Pty Ltd will not be incurred following Completion of the Offer. This adjustment removes the fees incurred prior to Completion of the Offer which were expensed in the Historical Statutory Results and, to the extent relating to the period from 1 May 2011 until Completion of the Offer, will be expensed in the Forecast Statutory Results. A guarantee of liabilities (relating to an entity formerly owned by the Existing Investors) and receivables (relating to that entity, and SingCo Trading Pte Ltd) were impaired in FY2009 and remeasured and adjusted in FY2010 and FY2011. These revaluations were recognised in the Historical Statutory Results and have been removed from the Pro Forma Historical Results. Collins Foods has been released from, and has no further exposure to this guarantee of liabilities and it has no relevance to Collins Foods ongoing businesses. Accordingly a benefit of $10.7 million will be recognised and has been included in the Forecast Statutory Results. The adjustment removes this item from the Pro Forma Forecast Results. Following the acquisition of SingCo Trading Pte Ltd, receivables from SingCo Trading Pte Ltd will be eliminated on consolidation. Total costs of the Offer that were expensed in the Historical Statutory Results and will be expensed in the Forecast Statutory Results ($10.8 million before tax) have been removed from the Pro Forma Historical Results and the Pro Forma Forecast Results. The remaining $5.5 million of Offer costs (after tax) have been offset against equity raised in the Offer (reflected in the consolidated historical balance sheet provided in section 3.4). Effective on Completion of the Offer, Collins Foods will operate under new KFC franchise arrangements with Yum! resulting in a requirement to write-off previously capitalised KFC franchise fees. This write-off will be expensed in the Forecast Statutory Results and has been removed from the Pro Forma Forecast Results. Refer to section 3.5. Reflects the tax effect of adjustments 1-11 outlined above at the effective tax rate used by Collins Foods to prepare the Forecast Statutory Results and the Pro Forma Forecast Results (30.1%), adjusted for permanent differences arising in relation to recognition and subsequent revaluation and reversal of the guarantee of related party financial liabilities and the impairment of related party receivables (as outlined in adjustment 9 above) together with permanent differences of $2.6 million in relation to a proportion of the costs of the Offer which have been expensed. Reflects the tax effect of permanent differences which arise as a result of resetting the tax basis of depreciable assets upon Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited becoming a member of the Collins Foods Limited income tax consolidation group.

The accounting policies relevant to this table are set out in the Appendix. Cash decreases by $40.3 million as a result of receipt of cash proceeds from the Institutional Offer and Broker Firm Offer ($201.7 million) and draw down of the New Banking Facilities ($105.0 million), offset by repayment of existing debt and certain other obligations ($260.4 million), payments to Existing Investors ($60.4 million) and payments for costs of the Offer and other obligations of Collins Foods to be paid on Completion of the Offer ($26.3 million). As a result of the impact of the New Banking Facilities, current borrowings decrease by $13.7 million through the repayment of existing current debt $18.6 million, offset by the write-off of unamortised capitalised borrowing costs ($4.9 million) and non-current borrowings decrease by $123.7 million through the repayment of non-current debt ($234.3 million) offset by the write-off of unamortised capitalised borrowing costs ($6.3 million), the drawdown of the new debt facilities ($105.0 million) and the associated increase in capitalised borrowing costs ($0.7 million). Contributed equity increases by $127.5 million as a result of the impact of the Offer through the issue of Shares to new Shareholders ($201.7 million) offset by cash paid to Existing Investors ($60.4 million), input tax credits received ($8.3 million) and costs of the Offer ($5.5 million). In addition Collins Foods will issue new equity of $30.8 million (12.3 million Shares at $2.50 per Share) as partial consideration for the acquisition of the Collins Foods business from the Existing Investors under the Sale Deeds (refer to section 8.3 for more information). Due to the principles of a reverse acquisition by Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited of Collins Foods Limited the Shares issued to Existing Investors will not affect contributed equity. The retained losses predominantly relate to the recognition of guarantees of liabilities (relating to an entity formerly owned by the Existing Investors) and receivables (relating to that entity, and SingCo Trading Pte Ltd) that were impaired in FY2009 and remeasured and adjusted in FY2010 and FY2011. Collins Foods has been released from and has no further exposure to, this guarantee of liabilities and it has no relevance to Collins Foods ongoing businesses. Following the acquisition of SingCo Trading Pte Ltd, receivables from SingCo Trading Pte Ltd will be eliminated on consolidation.

3.4.1 Pro forma adjustments to the statutory balance sheet


The pro forma consolidated adjustments made to the audited statutory balance sheet for Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited as at 1 May 2011 reflect the following events and assumptions: Restructuring events These adjustments relate to: The disposal prior to the date of this Prospectus of an interest in an entity formerly owned by the Existing Investors, and the concurrent release of a Collins Foods company from liability under an associated guarantee (referred to in note 9 of section 3.3.2); The acquisition on Completion of the Offer pursuant to the Sale Deeds by a wholly owned subsidiary of Collins Foods Limited of all of the shares issued in the capital of SingCo Trading Pte Ltd for cash. (SingCo Trading Pte Ltd accounts (in Singapore dollars) have been audited in accordance with Singapore accounting standards. There are no audited accounts for SingCo Trading Pte Ltd in Australian dollars.)

Impact of the Offer and New Banking Facilities In conjunction with the Offer, Collins Foods will issue new equity as partial consideration for the acquisition of the Collins Foods business from Existing Investors under the Sale Deeds (refer to section 8.3 for more information). In addition, Collins Foods will issue new equity and draw down on its New Banking Facilities (described in section 3.4.3). Proceeds from the foregoing, together with available cash, will be used to pay: Existing Investors for the cash portion of the consideration payable for the acquisition by a wholly owned subsidiary of Collins Foods Limited of all of the remaining interests in Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited; loan establishment costs; amounts owing by Collins Foods under syndicated finance debt facilities, finance leases and associated derivatives and certain other obligations of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited and its subsidiaries; and costs of the Offer and other obligations of Collins Foods to be paid on Completion of the Offer.

3.4.3 Description of the New Banking Facilities
Collins Foods Limited and CFG Finance Pty Limited have entered into facility agreements for the provision of three year revolving cash facilities and a working capital facility (New Banking Facilities). On Completion of the Offer, funding provided under the facility agreements (together with certain proceeds from the sale of New Shares under the Offer) will be utilised to repay existing syndicated finance debt facilities, finance leases and associated derivatives and certain other obligations of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited and its subsidiaries. Upon repayment of existing syndicated finance debt facilities, associated guarantees and security will be discharged. The availability of funding under the facility agreements is conditional on listing on ASX as contemplated by this Offer and other conditions precedent which are within the control of Collins Foods Limited. Accordingly, on Completion of the Offer, Collins Foods Limited will have debt funding available to assist with the repayment of the existing syndicated finance debt of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited and its subsidiaries and to provide for the debt funding needs after listing. The New Banking Facilities are based on signed facility agreements provided to Collins Foods Limited by a group of banking institutions and will comprise: $110 million three year Revolving Cash Advance Facility (Facility A); $25 million three year Revolving Cash Advance Facility (Facility B); and $10 million three year Working Capital Facility (Working capital Facility).

The $105.0 million of drawn Facility A presented above, net of capitalised loan establishment costs of $0.7 million equals the $104.3 million balance recorded in the pro forma historical (following Completion of the Offer) balance sheet. Pro forma net debt equal to $101.5 million.

Pro forma consolidated forecast net interest expense in relation to the establishment fees and agency fees in the New Banking Facilities for FY2012 is $0.3 million. 3.4.3.1 Facility A Facility A is repayable in full at maturity, being three years from the date of the first drawdown under the New Bank Facilities. No interim scheduled principal repayments are required during the term of Facility A. Facility A has a variable interest rate, which is based on BBSY. Based on BBSY as at 25 May 2011 of 5.0683%, the average effective interest rate of Facility A would be 7.2%. Pro forma consolidated forecast interest expense in relation to Facility A for FY2012 is $7.5 million. This is based on pro forma historical (following Completion of the Offer) debt of $105.0 million. Facility A will attract commitment fees equal to 50% of the margin on the committed but undrawn funds under this facility. 3.4.3.2 Facility B Collins Foods Limited does not intend to draw Facility B on Completion of the Offer; however, Collins Foods Limited may choose to draw on these facilities at any time after the date of listing on ASX and before two years and eleven months from the date of the first drawdown under the New Bank Facilities. Drawn amounts will attract the same interest rate as the interest rate on Facility A. In addition, Facility B will attract the same commitment fees as Facility A. Facility B is repayable in full at maturity, being three years from the date of the first drawdown under the New Bank Facilities. No interim scheduled principal repayments are required during the term of Facility B. Pro forma consolidated forecast commitment fees and line fees for FY2012 in relation to Facility B are $0.2 million.

Pro forma consolidated forecast commitment fees and line fees for FY2012 in relation to the Working Capital Facility are $0.1 million. Pro forma consolidated forecast interest expense in relation to the Working Capital Facility for FY2012 is $0.1 million. This assumes an average draw of $1.0 million. 3.4.3.4 Financial undertakings The agreement under which the New Bank Facilities will be made available contains undertakings typical for facilities of this nature. The undertakings include financial undertakings which will be tested at financial year end and financial half-year end based on the preceding 13 accounting periods (approximately 12 months). Collins Foods Limited expects to remain in compliance with these undertakings. pro forma drawn at 1 May 2011 Net leverage ratio to be not greater than 2.75:11 Lease adjusted interest cover ratio to be equal to or greater than 1.75:1

3.7.1.1 Revenue Sales revenue is generated by Collins Foods KFC and Sizzler Australia businesses. Franchise revenue is generated by Collins Foods as the franchisor of Sizzler restaurants in Asia, primarily in Thailand, China and Japan. Drivers of sales revenue in KFC and Sizzler are average number of restaurants open, customer volumes per restaurant, and average spend per customer (cheque average). The change in average number of restaurants open during the year is a function of the number of new restaurants opened (and when they are opened) together with the impact of the temporary closure for, or reopening of existing restaurants from, refurbishment or relocation. Collins Foods targets a cash return of at least 23% on capital expenditure for new restaurants and existing restaurants that are refurbished or relocated in the first full year. The capital expenditure required to open, refurbish, relocate or rebuild a restaurant varies depending on the nature and location of the restaurant and the nature of the refurbishment or relocation. Customer volumes are impacted by macroeconomic factors, the level of advertising, other promotional activity and seasonality. The proportion of sales generated in school holiday periods is higher than in the remainder of the year. There are also six accounting periods in the first half of the year and seven in the second half. Together, those factors historically result in first half results accounting for approximately 46% of full year revenue, while second half results account for 54% of full year revenue. Cheque average is driven by menu prices and varies with the mix of products sold, including the effect of promotional and discount offers made during the year. Historically, Collins Foods has averaged two to three price increases per year with an 80% pass through of price rises to customers. A price pass through percentage attempts to provide a measure of the effectiveness of a price increase by taking into account the variation by customers of their standard order as a result of the increase in the price (some customers will substitute a lower priced item in order to keep their standard total spend unchanged, whereas others will increase their total spend in line with the increased prices). To an extent, Collins Foods has the ability to impact both customer volumes and cheque average through marketing and promotional activity. These two drivers are actively managed to seek to maximise sales revenue and profit. An important indicator of revenue growth is SSSG, which provides a measure of the organic growth in the business over a particular period. It is calculated by analysing the sales growth from those restaurants in the group that were operating in the comparable period in the prior year. It excludes any new stores or refurbished stores for a 12 to 15 month period after opening or remodel to ensure the figures are not distorted by the impact of Growth Capital Expenditure. The level of franchise revenue in Sizzler is determined by the average number of franchise restaurants open, the royalties payable by franchisees (in US dollars) in respect of their local sales revenue and the average foreign exchange rates applicable. 3.7.1.2 Gross profit margin Cost of sales incorporates food costs, an allocation of labour incurred in the direct production of products, packaging and distribution costs. Margin is impacted by menu prices and changes in product costs and wages. Collins Foods manages its price points and cost structure to generate margins at targeted levels. 3.7.1.3 Other operating costs Other operating costs incorporate restaurant labour (excluding that allocated to cost of sales), advertising and royalties, rent, utilities, maintenance and corporate overheads. Collins Foods manages its cost structure to generate margins at targeted levels. 3.7.1.4 Working capital As customers of Collins Foods restaurants primarily pay in cash, Collins Foods has a negative working capital balance (reflected in the excess of trade payables over trade receivables on the balance sheet). This represents a form of funding for Collins Foods. Changes in working capital are essentially driven by movements in trade payables. Trade payable balances vary year on year depending upon the proximity of calendar month end payments to the end of a financial year.

The commentary below highlights the key changes in Collins Foods business over the relevant period with reference to the drivers mentioned in section 3.7.1 as relevant. 3.7.2.1 KFC revenue The average number of restaurants increased by 3.7. This was a result of four new restaurants being added in the second half of FY2009 together with the addition of one new restaurant and five restaurants being refurbished during FY2010. Customer numbers reduced as a result of the flow on effects of the global financial crisis on the Queensland economy. Those effects included an increase in unemployment and a significant reduction in consumer confidence and expenditure. Cheque average increased primarily as a result of menu price increases and promotional activity. The combination of the above factors resulted in a SSSG decline of 3.7% and a decrease in revenue of 1.4%. 3.7.2.2 Sizzler revenue Restaurant numbers in Australia were effectively stable at 26. Customer frequency reduced as the macro economic conditions in Sizzlers market segment became increasingly challenging as customers traded down to restaurants with lower price point options. Despite this, cheque average increased, driven by the introduction of new menu items in conjunction with selected price increases. The combination of the above factors resulted in SSSG of 1.1% during FY2010. Sizzler Asia revenues declined due to difficult trading conditions throughout Asia in the wake of the global financial crisis, which was partially offset by the addition of three restaurants by the franchisee in Thailand. Overall, Sizzler revenue increased by 1.2% in FY2010. 3.7.2.3 Gross profit Gross profit margin increased to 52.0% of revenue (compared to 51.2% in FY2009). This increase in profit margin was due to menu price increases which outpaced the increases in the costs of most products sold. This was accentuated by a reduction in the cost of fresh chicken from the abnormally high prices from the previous year. Labour costs in KFC also increased due to the phasing in of the minimum rates of pay contained in the relevant modern labour award.

3.7.2.4 Other operating costs A shortage of restaurant management personnel in FY2009, particularly in KFC, was addressed in FY2010 when the availability of suitable candidates improved, resulting in increased restaurant management labour costs of 5.9%. Advertising expenditures in KFC and Sizzler as a percentage of revenue increased in FY2010 in response to challenging trading conditions. Royalties increased in line with KFC revenue growth. Rent was consistent as a percentage of sales compared with FY2009 since the majority of leases operate on a turnover rent basis. Utilities expenditure increased marginally as a percentage of revenue due to an increase in market determined electricity prices. Corporate expenses reduced as staff bonuses reduced in line with difficult trading conditions. 3.7.2.5 Depreciation and amortisation Depreciation and amortisation increased in FY2010. This was consistent with the new restaurant and remodel activity in KFC together with the refurbishment of the corporate support centre of Collins Foods.

3.7.3.1 Change in working capital The amount of working capital has remained relatively stable. 3.7.3.2 Capital expenditure for Facility Actions Capital expenditure reduced which was directly attributable to the reduction in Facility Actions. There was one new KFC restaurant constructed compared to four in the prior year. Restaurant remodel activity also reduced with five KFC restaurant refurbishments in FY2010 compared to seven in the prior year. The increase in Maintenance Capital Expenditure primarily related to the investment in ovens required for a new product roll-out in Collins Foods KFC restaurants.

The commentary below highlights the key changes in the business over the relevant period with reference to the drivers mentioned in section 3.7.1. 3.7.4.1 KFC revenue The average number of restaurants increased by 1.3. This was a result of two new restaurants being added during FY2011 together with seven restaurant refurbishments. Customer numbers declined, which was most evident in the first three quarters of FY2011, due to continued reduced activity levels in the Queensland economy. This included some temporary restaurant closures as a result of the Queensland floods. Customer numbers partially recovered in the fourth quarter of FY2011, despite the occurrence of Cyclone Yasi. Cheque average increased as a result of menu price increases and customer menu item selection. The combination of the above factors resulted in an increase in SSSG of 1.5% and revenue by 2.3% in FY2011. 3.7.4.2 Sizzler revenue Sizzler undertook two restaurant refurbishments during FY2011 which resulted in a slight reduction in average restaurant numbers in FY2011. Despite increases in advertising spend, customer numbers continued to decline due to ongoing challenging trading conditions being experienced by the retail sector. Cheque average, however, increased, driven by the introduction of new menu items in conjunction with selected price increases. The combination of the above factors resulted in SSSG of 1.0% for Sizzler Australia. Sizzler Asia revenues increased as a result of improving trading conditions in Asia, particularly in Thailand and China. This was achieved despite the continuing appreciation of the Australian dollar relative to the US dollar. Overall Sizzler revenue increased by 1.0% in FY2011. 3.7.4.3 Gross profit Gross profit margin increased to 53.1% of revenue (compared to 52.0% in FY2010). This increase in profit margin was due to menu price increases together with commodity price reductions in certain key commodities including fresh chicken, soft drinks and seafood. In addition, operational initiatives and menu simplification contributed to improved inventory control and reduced product wastage. Restaurant labour costs in KFC increased in FY2011. This was due primarily to a $26 per week increase in minimum adult wages awarded by Fair Work Australia during the year. Total labour costs in Sizzler were also impacted by the Fair Work Australia decision and organic growth in the business during the course of FY2011. A further contributor to the labour cost increase for KFC was the continuation of the phasing in of the minimum rates of pay contained in the relevant modern labour award.

3.7.4.4 Other operating costs Advertising expenditures in KFC and Sizzler as a percentage of revenue increased in FY2011 in continued response to the challenging trading conditions confronting both businesses. Royalties paid to Yum! increased in line with KFC revenue growth. Rent was consistent as a percentage of sales compared with FY2010, reflecting the fact that the majority of leases operate on a turnover rent basis. Utilities expenditure increased marginally as a percentage of revenue due to the increases in market determined electricity prices. Corporate expenses reduced due to reduced headcount. 3.7.4.5 Depreciation and amortisation While the level of depreciable assets increased, depreciation decreased in FY2011. This was due to the timing of the capital expenditure which was weighted to the back half of the financial year.

3.7.5.1 Change in working capital The amount of working capital remained relatively stable. 3.7.5.2 Capital expenditure for Facility Actions Capital expenditure increased in FY2011, which was directly attributable to the increase in Facility Actions.

Restaurant remodel activity also increased with seven KFC and two Sizzler refurbishments in FY2011 compared to five KFC in the prior year. $1.7 million of Maintenance Capital Expenditure primarily related to the investment in equipment for new product roll-out (Krushers) in KFC.

Pro forma Forecast Financial Information

The pro forma Forecast Financial Information is based on various best estimate assumptions, including those set out below. In preparing the pro forma Forecast Financial Information, Collins Foods has undertaken an analysis of historical restaurant performance and applied assumptions where appropriate across each of the KFC and Sizzler segments (with adjustments for individual restaurants where considered relevant including as a result of Facility Actions). The assumptions set out below should be read in conjunction with the sensitivity analysis set out in section 3.9, the risk factors set out in section 4 and the Investigating Accountants Report on Forecast Financial Information set out in section 7. A reconciliation of the Pro Forma Forecast Results to the Forecast Statutory Results is set out in section 3.3.2.

Relevant to FY2012 new and refurbished restaurants only. Revenue and EBITDA annualised for 12 months contribution, indicative measure only. Based on FY2012 full year revenue for comparable restaurants. Additional capital expenditure of $1.6 million was incurred in FY2011 for restaurants completed in FY2012. As per page 28 relocation and rebuild returns are treated as new restaurants, therefore do not have pre refurbishment revenue or EBITDA. The relevant revenue and EBITDA figures for the table above, as if the relocation and rebuilds were treated as new restaurants, would be $14.6 million and $3.3 million respectively.

New restaurants The forecast FY2012 revenue contribution from new restaurants is based on an analysis of the sales history from comparable Collins Foods restaurants with similar demographics assuming similar results can be obtained for those new restaurants being opened as for those opened historically, taking into account assumed timing of restaurant openings. The associated capital expenditure is based on recent comparable restaurant spend, or where available tenders. This expenditure is planned to be funded out of free cash flow from operations. Collins Foods opened two new restaurants during FY2011. Collins Foods is forecasting it will generate an additional $0.8 million of revenue from those new restaurants in FY2012 compared to revenue generated in FY2011 (assumed for the period beginning 1 May 2011 to the first anniversary of the restaurant opening). Refurbished restaurants The forecast FY2012 revenue contribution from restaurants refurbished during FY2012 is based on an analysis of the historical results of comparable past remodels with similar demographics, assuming similar results can be obtained for those restaurants being remodelled as for those remodelled historically. It also takes into account revenue expected to be forgone while the restaurant is closed during construction and the expected timing of restaurant reopening. The associated capital expenditure is based on recent comparable restaurant spend or, where available, tenders. This expenditure is to be funded out of free cash flow from operations. Collins Foods forecasts it will generate an additional $2.0 million of revenue in FY2012 from the restaurants it refurbished in FY2011 (assumed for the period beginning 1 May 2011 to the first anniversary of the restaurant reopening).

Customer numbers and cheque average Collins Foods forecasts SSSG of 2.8% in FY2012, reflecting a combination of growth in customer numbers and cheque average as outlined below. Same store customer numbers are forecast to grow by 1.2%. This is based on an increase in customer numbers in Q4 FY2011 driven by promotional activity and an improvement in the Queensland economy resulting from a recovery in resource industries. Same store cheque average is forecast to grow by 1.7%, reflecting menu price increases and product mix changes in the forecast period. The assumed price increases are lower than those achieved in recent years in light of current market conditions. 3.8.1.2 Sizzler revenue FY2012 forecast revenue is based on key assumptions concerning Facility Actions, customer numbers and cheque averages as set out below.

New restaurants for Sizzler Australia The forecast FY2012 revenue contribution from new restaurants is based on the sales history from comparable Collins Foods restaurants with similar demographics assuming similar results can be obtained for those new restaurants being opened as for those opened historically taking into account assumed timing of restaurant openings. The associated capital expenditure is based on comparable store spend, adjusted for inflationary increases or, where available, tenders, and is expected to be funded out of free cash flow from operations. Refurbished restaurants for Sizzler Australia The forecast FY2012 revenue contribution from restaurants refurbished during FY2012 is based on the historical results of past remodels from comparable Collins Foods restaurants with similar demographics assuming similar results can be obtained for those restaurants being remodelled as for those remodelled historically. It also takes into account revenue forgone while the restaurant is closed during construction and the timing of the restaurant reopening. Collins Foods also forecasts to generate $1.2 million in revenue from restaurants refurbished in FY2011 (assumed for the period beginning 1 May 2011 to the first anniversary of the restaurant reopening). The associated capital expenditure is based on recent comparable restaurant spend or, where available, tenders. This expenditure is to be funded out of free cash flows. Customer numbers and cheque average for Sizzler Australia Collins Foods forecasts SSSG of 1.3% in FY2012, reflecting a combination of decline in customer numbers and growth in cheque average as outlined below. Same store customer numbers are forecast to decline by 1.6% in FY2012, reflecting a decline in Sizzler customer numbers observed by Collins Foods in Q4 FY2011 and which Collins Foods believes reflects consumer uncertainty impacting discretionary spend in the restaurant sector. Same store cheque average is forecast to grow by 2.9%, reflecting menu price increases and product mix changes. The assumed price increases are lower than those achieved in recent years in light of current market conditions. Sizzler Asia Revenue from Sizzler Asia is forecast to decrease by $0.1 million (to $2.5 million) as a result of restaurant closures in Taiwan in FY2011 and the expected closure of two restaurants in South Korea in FY2012.

3.8.1.3 Gross profit margin assumptions Gross profit margin is forecast to be 53.5% of revenue in FY2012. This represents a modest increase in gross margin percentage from FY2011 (53.1%) and is based on the assumption that menu price increases (as described above) will continue to slightly exceed the expected cost increases in most major input products, including fresh chicken, chips, soft drinks and packaging. Commodity price increases are based on contracted price increases, where relevant. Pricing for over 90% of key commodities for its KFC restaurants are already contracted for FY2012. Prices for approximately 23% of Sizzler Australias key commodities are contracted with suppliers. Non-contracted price increases have been forecast in line with inflation (assumed to be 3%), or above inflation where it is known or expected that prices in FY2012 will be higher than 3%. Direct labour costs are forecast to increase from FY2011 by 4.8%, based on average hourly rate or Fair Work Australia increases, plus additional headcount related to new restaurant openings. As a percentage of revenue, direct labour costs are consistent with recent Collins Foods experience. 3.8.1.4 Operating expenses assumptions Operating expenses (including rent) are forecast to be $171.0 million in FY2012. This reflects an increase of $8.6 million from FY2011, which is driven by an increase in the variable component of operating expenses and the following key assumptions. Indirect labour costs and administration costs are assumed to increase by 6.3% from FY2011, based primarily on an increase in the number of restaurants and a 4% salary increase (which is consistent with Collins Foods recent experience) to attract and retain quality restaurant management staff. Advertising is assumed to be 6.0% of KFC annual sales revenue, based on the revised agreements with Yum! (refer sections 2.2.7 and 8.1) and 5.0% of Sizzler sales revenue, based on historic levels of spend. Royalty expenses are assumed to represent 6.0% of KFC annual sales revenue based on the revised agreements with Yum! (refer sections 2.2.7 and 8.1). Rental expenses are assumed to be $23.4 million in FY2012, based on the terms of the relevant lease agreements for all restaurants, and expected costs associated with the new restaurant openings (based on agreed terms or comparable restaurant costs). The majority of lease agreements contain clauses providing that rental expense is to be determined as the higher of an amount calculated by reference to turnover and an amount calculated by reference to a base rental expense as increased by an inflationary, fixed increase or market rate escalation clause. Utilities expenditures are assumed to increase in FY2012 by 9.4% compared to FY2011, based on increases in market determined electricity prices and new restaurant openings. Approximately 28% of the utility costs are contracted with the remainder of costs mainly based on the Queensland Competition Authoritys electricity pricing. Other operating costs are assumed to increase in line with inflation at 3%. 3.8.1.5 Depreciation and amortisation assumptions Depreciation expense and amortisation is forecast to be $15.6 million in FY2012, compared to $15.2 million in FY2011. Depreciation for FY2012 is based on the useful lives and costs of the existing asset base, adjusted for the impact of additional capital expenditure from the date of commissioning of assets. FY2012 amortisation also includes the amortisation of fees associated with the new KFC franchising arrangements which will take effect on Completion of the Offer. 3.8.1.6 Net interest expense assumptions Net interest expense is forecast to be $8.0 million in FY2012, based on the revised capital structure (New Debt Facilities) as set out in section 3.4.3. The net interest expense forecast assumes $105.0 million of drawn facilities with the interest rate hedged for 50% of the drawn facilities. A $1.0 million average draw down on the Working Capital Facility in relation to timing of cash flows is also assumed. Net interest expense includes amortisation of borrowing costs $0.2 million and undrawn facility fees $0.3 million net of the forecast interest income. Based on BBSY as at 25 May 2011 of 5.0683%, the average effective interest rate of Facility A is assumed to be 7.2%. It is assumed there is no change to the capital structure from the consolidated pro forma post Offer balance sheet set out in section 3.4.

3.8.1.7 Income tax expense assumptions Income tax expense of $10.6 million has been forecast based on an effective tax rate of 30.1%, representing a blend of the current corporate income tax rate of 30% applicable in Australia for FY2012 and withholding tax in Asia for FY2012. Income tax expense has been adjusted to reflect the tax effect of differences relevant to the pro forma forecast information. These differences are outlined in Note 12 to the table in section 3.3.2. 3.8.1.8 Working capital assumptions The growth in working capital balances ($0.6 million) has been forecast in line with forecast revenue growth, assuming historical working capital trends are maintained during the forecast period. 3.8.1.9 Maintenance Capital Expenditure Maintenance Capital Expenditure is forecast to be $7.3 million, which is equivalent to 1.7% of revenue and which is consistent with normalised historical levels of expenditure, after adjusting for one off projects, such as the introduction of grill ovens in FY2010 ($3.0 million) and equipment associated with KFCs Krushers product in FY2011 ($1.7 million). No significant new equipment is forecast to be necessary to deliver the products forecast for FY2012. This expenditure is planned to be funded out of free cash flow from operations.

3.8.2 General assumptions


In preparing the Forecast Financial Information, the following general best estimate assumptions have been adopted: No material change in the competitive operating environment in which Collins Foods operates; No significant deviation from current market expectations of global or Australian economic conditions relevant to the food industry in Australia for the period; No material changes in Australian Commonwealth state or local government legislation, tax legislation, regulatory legislation, regulatory requirements or government policy that will have a material impact on the financial performance or cash flows, financial position, accounting policies, financial reporting or disclosure of Collins Foods during the forecast period; No material changes in key personnel; No material changes in applicable Australian Accounting Standards, other mandatory professional reporting requirements or the Corporations Act which have a material effect on Collins Foods financial performance, financial position, accounting policies, financial reporting or disclosure; No material industry strikes or other disturbances, environmental costs, contingent liabilities or legal claims will arise or be settled to the detriment of Collins Foods; No material cash flow or income statement or financial position impact in relation to litigation (existing or otherwise); No material acquisitions or disposals of businesses other than as set out in, or contemplated by, this Prospectus; No material changes to Collins Foods corporate and funding structure other than as set out in, or contemplated by, this Prospectus; No material disruptions to the continuity of operations of Collins Foods nor other material changes in its business; No material amendment to any material agreement or arrangement relating to Collins Foods business other than set out in, or contemplated by, this Prospectus; and None of the risks listed in section 4 have a material adverse impact on the operations of Collins Foods.

3.9 Sensitivity analysis
The Forecast Financial Information is based on a number of estimates and assumptions as described in section 3.8.1 and section 3.8.2. These estimates and assumptions are subject to business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of Collins Foods, the Directors and Management. These estimates are also based on upon assumptions with respect to future business decisions, which are subject to change. Set out below is a summary of the sensitivity of the Pro Forma Forecast Results to changes in a number of key assumptions. The changes in the key assumptions set out in the sensitivity analysis are not intended to be indicative of the complete range of variations that may be experienced. For the purposes of this analysis, each sensitivity is presented in terms of the impact of each on FY2012 forecast pro forma NPAT of $24.7 million and is set out below. Fy2012 Increase/ pro forma (decrease)1 NpAt impact 1.0%/(1.0%) n/a 1.0%/(1.0%) 1.0%/(1.0%) 1.0%/(1.0%) 1.0/(1.0) (0.2) (1.4)/1.4 (1.0)/1.0 (0.4)/0.4

Assumption Sales 2 Delay of 12 weeks for all new restaurant openings 3 Cost of sales Other operating costs Interest 4
Notes: 1. 2. 3. 4.

These sensitivities are relative sensitivities. A +/ 1% variation is to be interpreted as resulting in the base assumption (revenue or cost) x 1.01 or 0.99 respectively. Based on a change in customer volumes and associated increases and decreases in variable operating costs. Represents the impact of delaying the specific NPAT contributions of the new restaurants for 12 weeks. Based on an absolute increase or decrease of 1% in BBSY. The net interest expense forecast assumes $105.0 million of drawn facilities with the interest rate hedged for 50% of the drawn facilities.

Care should be taken in interpreting each sensitivity. The estimated impact of changes in each of the assumptions has been calculated in isolation from changes in other assumptions, in order to illustrate the likely impact on the forecasts. In practice, changes in assumptions may offset each other or be additive, and it is likely that Management would respond to any adverse change in one item to seek to minimise the net effect on Collins Foods financial performance.

3.10 Dividend policy


Subject to the forecasts being achieved and other relevant factors, the Board expects to declare a final dividend in respect of FY2012 of 11.8 cents per Share which represents an annualised dividend yield of 6.4%1. It is expected that the dividend will be fully franked. Depending on available profits and the financial position of Collins Foods Limited, it is the current intention of the Board to pay an interim dividend each December and a final dividend each July. It is expected that all future dividends will be franked to the maximum extent possible. The Directors intend to target a payout ratio of at least 50% of statutory NPAT; however, the payment of a dividend by Collins Foods is at the discretion of the Directors and will be a function of a number of factors, including the general business environment, the operating results and the financial condition of Collins Foods, future funding requirements, capital management initiatives, potential strategic growth opportunities, taxation considerations (including the level of franking credits available), any contractual, legal or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends by Collins Foods (including the Yum! arrangements), and any other factors the Directors may consider relevant. Therefore, no assurances can be given by any person, including the Directors, about the payment of any dividend and the level of franking on any such dividend.

The FY2012 dividend of 11.8 cents per Share is based on the earnings generated during the period from the completion of the Offer and 29 April 2012. On an annualised basis this represents a dividend yield of 6.4%.

An investment in Collins Foods will be exposed to a number of risks. Risks that the Directors believe are key risks are described in section 4.1 below. The key risks are the risks that senior Management and the Directors focus on when managing the business of Collins Foods and have the potential, if they occurred, to result in very significant consequences for Collins Foods and an investment in it. The balance of risks regarded by the Directors as potentially material are described in section 4.2. There are also risks that are common to all investments in shares and which are not specific to an investment in Collins Foods; for example, the general volatility of share prices including as a result of general economic conditions (including monetary and fiscal policy settings as well as exchange and interest rates) in Australia and overseas and other events outside the usual course of Collins Foods business such as acts of terrorism or war. Investors should note that the occurrence or consequences of some of the risks described in this section of the Prospectus are partially or completely outside the control of Collins Foods, its Directors and senior Management. Further, investors should note that this description focuses on the risks referred to above and does not purport to list every risk that Collins Foods may have now or in the future. It is also important to note that there can be no guarantee that Collins Foods will achieve its stated objectives or that any forward looking statements or forecasts contained in this Prospectus will be realised or otherwise eventuate. Investors should satisfy themselves that they have a sufficient understanding of these matters, including the risks described in this section of the Prospectus, and have regard to their own investment objectives, financial circumstances and taxation position before investing in Collins Foods. If you do not understand any part of this Prospectus, or are in any doubt as to whether to invest in Shares or not, it is recommended that you seek professional guidance from your stockbroker, solicitor, accountant or other independent and qualified professional adviser before deciding whether to invest.

4.1

Key risks

4.1.1 Food safety and sanitation


There is a risk that a serious food-poisoning incident could occur at a Collins Foods KFC or Sizzler restaurant as a result of an operational lapse in food safety or sanitation procedures or malicious tampering. The occurrence of a serious food-poisoning incident at a KFC or Sizzler restaurant (including restaurants operated by others as discussed in section 4.1.5 Brand and reputation calamity) is likely to have very significant consequences for Collins Foods same branded restaurants. It may involve: A loss of consumer trust in the relevant brand that results in reduced revenues; An increase in expenditure on advertising to seek to attempt to restore consumer trust in the relevant brand; Some or all restaurants for the relevant brand being partially or wholly closed while the relevant food safety authorities satisfy themselves that the underlying issue has been resolved satisfactorily. Revenues from these restaurants would be forgone as a result; and The payment to affected consumers (or their dependents) of some form of compensation and to the relevant food authorities of some form of penalty or fine (unless the incident results from malicious tampering).

See also the description of Collins Foods related exposure to brand and reputation calamity risk in section 4.1.5 below.

4.1.2 Security of supply chain


There is a risk that the supply chain for one or more of Collins Foods restaurants will be materially disrupted with the result that sufficient quantities of supplies are not delivered on time. This could result from the occurrence of a natural disaster that affects the delivery by suppliers of supplies to restaurants; for example, a flood, or alternatively some industry-wide phenomena affecting the availability of supplies to suppliers; for example, a widespread disease in chickens. It should be noted that the failure of any one supplier common to all restaurants, or the failure of all suppliers to a limited number of restaurants, is unlikely to result in material consequences for Collins Foods. The occurrence of such an event would potentially have significant consequences for all Collins Foods restaurants (as well as the QSR or casual dining industries more generally), including the inability to sell some or all products, with an associated loss of revenue and (potentially) brand damage, increased costs flowing from alternative delivery arrangements, or a combination of both.

69 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

4.1.3 Relationship with Yum! (termination for non-compliance)


There is a risk that Yum! could terminate KFC franchise arrangements with Collins Foods as a result of a material breach by Collins Foods of its obligations to Yum! under those arrangements (including to refrain from damaging the KFC brand, a failure by Collins Foods to upgrade its KFC restaurants to Yum! brand standards or if a person acquires control of Collins Foods without Yum!s prior consent). The termination of all of Collins Foods KFC franchise arrangements would result in: The imposition on Collins Foods of an obligation not to be engaged in or perform any services for any business involving the preparation, marketing or sale of products similar to the KFC products for a period of 12 months; and Collins Foods ceasing to trade as KFC through any of its restaurants, with an associated loss of revenue and cost to refurbish its restaurants (if an alternative use for them could be found).

There is a possibility that this would result in Collins Foods being unable to conduct any business from these sites, or be unable to conduct a business that generates revenues equal to those currently being generated, or the cessation of business at all sites and the sale of the assets to a third party or to Yum!.

4.1.4 Change in regulation


There is a risk that laws or regulations will be introduced that seek to reduce the advertising or consumption of foods sold by QSRs generally which would affect Collins Foods KFC restaurants and potentially its Sizzler restaurants, including by imposing restrictions on the location of restaurants, by the introduction of mandatory dietary content disclosures or by the introduction of taxation measures that reference food content. While the Directors do not believe any specific proposals are currently being considered in Queensland (and that it is therefore difficult to ascertain the likely consequences for Collins Foods of any such development), there is the potential for such measures to reduce materially revenues, increase its costs or cause both to arise.

4.1.5 Brand and reputation calamity


There is a risk that some incident beyond the control of Collins Foods could occur which would have the effect of reducing consumer confidence or preferences for the KFC or Sizzler brands or for any of the component menu items sold by those businesses, such as: The occurrence of a food safety incident at a KFC or Sizzler restaurant belonging to a separate franchisee elsewhere in Australia or overseas; A widespread loss of consumer confidence in one or more of the products sold by Collins Foods restaurants; and A widespread loss of consumer confidence in the food safety procedures in the industry as a whole.

The consequences of such an incident could be very significant for either or both of Collins Foods KFC and Sizzler restaurants, including reduced revenues, loss of consumer trust in the relevant brand or products, reduced desirability of restaurants for the relevant brand to landlords and reduced prominence of the relevant brand in customers minds.

4.1.6 Failure of growth driver (open insufficient number of new restaurants)


There is a risk that Collins Foods will be unable to open new KFC or Sizzler restaurants in accordance with its capital expenditure programme, including as a result of an inability to secure: Government development approvals in accordance with the capital expenditure timetable; Sufficient numbers of professional builders to construct the new restaurants; Suitable sites for new restaurants on acceptable terms or at all; Landlord approvals; and Yum! approval to open a new restaurant.

The effect of such a failure would be reduced or no growth for the relevant Collins Foods business.

70 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

4 rIsks
4.1.7 Failure of growth driver (insufficient successful new products and LTOs)
There is a risk that Collins Foods will be unable to offer a sufficient number of successful new products or limited time offers at its KFC and Sizzler restaurants, which could potentially result in reduced or negative organic growth.

4.1.8 Reduction in customer numbers


There is a risk that economic conditions in or consumer sentiment affecting the markets in which Collins Foods operates could deteriorate, with the potential result that customer numbers reduce leading to lower or negative organic growth.

4.1.9 Insufficient supervision of operations by management


Close attention by management to the day to day operations of its restaurants and other aspects of the business is critical to Collins Foods performance. A failure to do this would be likely to result in reduced revenues, increased costs, or a combination of both.

4.2

Other risks

4.2.1 Failure of growth driver (inability to refurbish existing restaurants)


There is a risk that Collins Foods will be unable to refurbish existing KFC and Sizzler restaurants in a particular year in accordance with its capital expenditure programme, including as a result of an inability to secure sufficient numbers of professional builders to refurbish existing restaurants in accordance with the refurbishment programme. The effect of such a failure would be reduced or negative growth and potentially reduced revenues, for the relevant Collins Foods businesses and potentially (in the case of its KFC restaurants) a breach of its obligations to Yum! to execute the capital expenditure programme (which could give lead to a termination of the KFC franchise arrangements with Yum!).

4.2.2 Inability to employ sufficient numbers of staff in required locations


There is a risk that Collins Foods will be unable to employ sufficient numbers of staff for its KFC and Sizzler restaurants, including in those regions experiencing strong economic growth as a result of the high levels of activity in the mining and resources industry. This would result in decreased operational efficiencies and increased costs for the affected restaurants, which, if affecting a substantial number of restaurants, could result in material reduction in profits for Collins Foods.

4.2.3 Competition (existing competitors)


There is a risk that the existing QSR competitors of Collins Foods KFC restaurants will develop strategies for the conduct and advertising of their businesses that result in sustained and material reductions in revenues for Collins Foods.

4.2.4 Lease renewal (inability to renew on acceptable terms)


There is a risk that Collins Foods will not be able to renew its site leases on acceptable terms or at all, which would result in the closure of the restaurants operated at the relevant sites and thereby an associated loss of the revenue previously generated by those restaurants. Given the scarcity of appropriate sites in some areas, it may also result in the inability to operate a restaurant within those areas at all.

4.2.5 Reduced or negative population growth


There is a risk that reduced or negative population growth will be experienced in Queensland. Were this to occur it is expected that it would result in reduced or negative growth in the size of the QSR and casual dining markets in the affected regions, and thereby reduced growth or reduction in revenues for the Collins Foods restaurants operating in those regions.

4.2.6 Failure of advertising programmes


There is a risk that the advertising programmes conducted by ADCO for KFC nationally and in Queensland, and by Collins Foods for KFC locally and for Sizzler in its markets, will be poorly constructed or executed with the result of reduced growth in or lower revenues for the relevant businesses.

71 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

4.2.7 New restaurants


There is a risk that new restaurants opened by Collins Foods will be unprofitable because they are not supported by a sufficient market or are not adequately staffed or managed. There is also a risk that new restaurants: Waste construction costs or incur construction costs earlier than necessary; and Cannibalise revenues of existing restaurants to a greater extent than predicted.

4.2.8 Failure of growth driver (refurbishments over-capitalised)


There is a risk that Collins Foods will over-capitalise the refurbishment of its existing KFC and Sizzler restaurants, resulting in material wasted costs being incurred.

4.2.9 Suppliers (change in pricing dynamics)


There is a risk that the supply chains for Collins Foods businesses (which include in material part the supply chains for Yum! nationally in respect of the KFC business) will develop in such a way that Collins Foods becomes exposed to material pricing risk; for example, by a reduction of competition for the supply of key product components. The Directors do not believe this is currently occurring in any material respect; however, if it occurred it could potentially result in a material increase in costs.

4.2.10 Reduced demand (material change in consumer dietary preferences)


There is a risk that consumer dietary preferences will develop in such a way that demand for Collins Foods products is reduced. The Directors do not believe this is currently occurring in any material respect; however, if this occurred it could potentially result in materially reduced revenues.

4.2.11 Litigation risk


Collins Foods is exposed to litigation risk principally relating to customer and employee personal injury claims. While the historical experience of the frequency and quantum of existing claims suggests that this is not currently a material issue, there is the potential for one or more claims that are material in cumulative quantum to occur with the result that costs are increased or the brand is damaged.

Collins Foods Limited and the Joint Lead Managers may elect to close the Offer or any part of it early, extend the Offer or any part of it, or accept late Applications either generally or in particular cases. The Offer or any part of it may be closed at any earlier date and time, without further notice. Your Broker may also impose an earlier closing date. Applicants are therefore encouraged to submit their Applications as early as possible. Please contact your Broker for instructions.

6.3.3 Application Monies


Applicants under the Broker Firm Offer whose Applications are not accepted, or who are allocated a lesser dollar amount of Shares than the amount applied for, will receive a refund of all or part of their Application Monies, as applicable. Interest will not be paid on any monies refunded. Applicants whose Applications are accepted in full will receive the whole number of Shares calculated by dividing the Application Amount by the Offer Price. Where the Offer Price does not divide evenly into the Application Amount, the number of Shares to be allocated will be determined by the Applicants Broker. Cheque(s) or bank draft(s) must be in Australian dollars and drawn on an Australian branch of an Australian bank, must be crossed Not Negotiable and must be made payable in accordance with the directions of the Broker from whom you received a firm allocation. You should ensure that sufficient funds are held in the relevant account(s) to cover the amount of the cheque(s) or bank draft(s). If the amount of your cheque(s) or bank draft(s) for Application Monies (or the amount for which those cheque(s) or bank draft(s) clear in time for allocation) is less than the amount specified on the Application Form, you may be taken to have applied for such lower dollar amount of Shares as for which your cleared Application Monies will pay (and to have specified that amount on your Application Form) or your Application may be rejected.

6.3.4 Acceptance of Applications


An Application in the Broker Firm Offer is an offer by the Applicant to Collins Foods Limited to subscribe for Shares for all or any of the Application Amount specified in and accompanying the Application Form at the Offer Price on the terms and conditions set out in this Prospectus including any supplementary or replacement prospectus and the Application Form (including the conditions regarding quotation on ASX in section 6.9.1). To the extent permitted by law, an Application by an Applicant under the Offer is irrevocable. An Application may be accepted by Collins Foods Limited and the Joint Lead Managers in respect of the full number of Shares specified in the Application Form or any of them, without further notice to the Applicant. Acceptance of an Application will give rise to a binding contract.

6.3.5 Allocation policy under the Broker Firm Offer


Broker Firm Offer Shares which have been allocated to Brokers for allocation to their Australian and New Zealand resident retail clients will be issued to the Applicants nominated by those Brokers (subject to the right of Collins Foods Limited and the Joint Lead Managers to reject or scale back Applications which are for more than $250,000). It will be a matter for the Brokers how they allocate firm stock among their retail clients, and they (and not Collins Foods Limited and the Joint Lead Managers) will be responsible for ensuring that retail clients who have received a firm allocation from them receive the relevant Shares. Collins Foods Limited intends to allocate approximately 310,000 Shares in aggregate to directors and officers of Collins Foods, advisers to the Offer, and friends and family of any of them. Collins Foods reserves the right to alter this number in its discretion. Such persons may participate in the Institutional Offer or receive firm allocations from Brokers under the Broker Firm Offer.

6.3.6 Announcement of final allocation policy in the Broker Firm Offer


Collins Foods Limited expects to announce the final allocation policy under the Broker Firm Offer on or about 3 August 2011. It is expected that this information will be advertised in The Sydney Morning Herald, The Melbourne Age, The Australian, The Australian Financial Review, and The Courier Mail as well as other major metropolitan newspapers on that same day. Applicants in the Broker Firm Offer will be able to call the Collins Foods Offer Information Line on 1800 622 202 (toll free within Australia) or +61 2 8280 7694 (outside Australia) from 8.30am until 5.30pm (AEST) Monday to Friday from 11 August 2011 to confirm their allocations. Applicants under the Broker Firm Offer will also be able to confirm their firm allocation through the Broker from whom they received their allocation. However, if you sell Shares before receiving a holding statement, you do so at your own risk, even if you obtained details of your holding from the Collins Foods Offer Information Line or confirmed your firm allocation through a Broker.

6.4

Institutional Offer

The Institutional Offer consists of an invitation to certain Institutional Investors in Australia and a number of other eligible jurisdictions to apply for Shares. The Joint Lead Managers have separately advised Institutional Investors of the Application procedures for the Institutional Offer. The allocation of Shares among Applicants in the Institutional Offer was determined by the Joint Lead Managers in consultation with Collins Foods Limited. The Joint Lead Managers, in consultation with Collins Foods Limited, will have absolute discretion regarding the basis of allocation of Shares among Institutional Investors, and there is no assurance that any Institutional Investor will be allocated any Shares, or the number of Shares for which it has bid. The allocation policy was influenced by the following factors: Number of Shares bid for by particular bidders; The timeliness of the bid by particular bidders; Collins Foods Limiteds desire for an informed and active trading market following listing on ASX; Collins Foods Limiteds desire to establish a wide spread of institutional shareholders; Overall level of demand under the Broker Firm Offer and Institutional Offer; The size and type of funds under management of particular bidders; The likelihood that particular bidders will be long-term shareholders; and Any other factors that Collins Foods Limited and the Joint Lead Managers considered appropriate.

6.5 Underwriting arrangements
The Offer is fully underwritten. The Joint Lead Managers and Collins Foods Limited have entered into an Underwriting Agreement under which the Joint Lead Managers have been appointed as arrangers and managers and underwriters of the Offer. The Joint Lead Managers agree, subject to certain conditions and termination events, to underwrite severally Applications for all Shares under the Offer in equal proportions. The Underwriting Agreement sets out a number of circumstances under which the Joint Lead Managers may terminate the agreement and the underwriting obligations. A summary of certain terms of the agreement and underwriting arrangements, including the termination provisions, is provided in section 8.2.

6.6

Escrow arrangements

The members of Management identified below have agreed to an escrow arrangement with Collins Foods Limited under which they will be restricted from dealing with any of the Shares issued to them under the Offer until three business days after the announcement of Collins Foods Limiteds audited financial results for FY2012. Kevin Perkins has agreed with Collins Foods Limited that this escrow arrangement will continue in respect of 50% of the Shares issued to him under the Offer until three business days after the announcement of Collins Foods Limiteds audited financial results for FY2013. Name of escrowed party Kevin Perkins (until FY2012 results) Kevin Perkins (until FY2013 results) Simon Perkins Martin Clarke James Ryan John Hands title Managing Director, CEO Managing Director, CEO CFO Global CEO KFC CEO Sizzler CSO/CIO Number of shares held in escrow 3.5 million 3.5 million 0.2 million 0.1 million 0.2 million 0.2 million percentage of shares on issue in escrow 3.8% 3.8% 0.2% 0.1% 0.2% 0.2%

An escrow is a restriction on sale, disposal, or encumbering of, or certain other dealings in respect of, the securities concerned for the period of the escrow, subject to any exceptions in the escrow arrangement concerned. There are limited circumstances in which the escrow may be released, namely: To allow the holder to accept a takeover bid for Collins Foods Limited in accordance with the Australian takeovers code provided that holders of not less than 50% of Shares not subject to escrow have then accepted the takeover bid; To allow the escrow Shares to be acquired under an amalgamation or scheme of arrangement or other reorganisation or acquisition of share capital under the Companies Act; and The death or incapacity of the holder of the Shares.

The escrow deeds prevent the escrowed party from giving security over their escrowed Shares. In aggregate, 7.7 million Shares will be the subject of these escrow arrangements. This will represent approximately 8.3% of all of the Shares. This is not expected to have a material effect on the liquidity of trading in Shares on ASX.

6.7

ASX listing, registers and holding statements, deferred settlement trading

6.9.1 Application to ASX for listing and quotation of Shares


Collins Foods Limited will apply for admission to the official list of ASX and quotation of the Shares on ASX. Collins Foods Limiteds expected ASX code will be CKF. ASX takes no responsibility for this Prospectus or the investment to which it relates. The fact that ASX may admit Collins Foods Limited to the official list is not to be taken as an indication of the merits of Collins Foods Limited or the Shares offered for subscription. If Collins Foods Limited does not make such an application within seven days after the date of this Prospectus, or if permission is not granted for the official quotation of the Shares on ASX within three months after the date of this Prospectus (or any later date permitted by law), all Application Monies received by Collins Foods Limited will be refunded without interest as soon as practicable in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act.

6.9.2 CHESS and issuer sponsored holdings
Collins Foods Limited will apply to participate in ASXs Clearing House Electronic Sub-register System (CHESS) and will comply with ASX Listing Rules and the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. CHESS is an electronic transfer and settlement system for transactions in securities quoted on ASX under which transfers are effected in an electronic form. When the Shares become approved financial products (as defined in the ASX Settlement Operating Rules), holdings will be registered in one of two sub-registers, an electronic CHESS sub-register or an issuer sponsored sub-register. For all successful Applicants, the Shares of a Shareholder who is a participant in CHESS or a Shareholder sponsored by a participant in CHESS will be registered on the CHESS sub-register. All other Shares will be registered on the issuer sponsored sub-register. Following Completion of the Offer, Shareholders will be sent a holding statement that sets out the number of Shares that have been allocated to them. This statement will also provide details of a Shareholders Holder Identification Number (hIN) for CHESS holders or, where applicable, the Securityholder Reference Number (srN) of issuer sponsored holders. Shareholders will subsequently receive statements showing any changes to their Shareholding. Certificates will not be issued. Shareholders will receive subsequent statements during the first week of the following month if there has been a change to their holding on the register and as otherwise required under ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act. Additional statements may be requested at any other time either directly through the Shareholders sponsoring broker in the case of a holding on the CHESS sub-register or through the Share Registry in the case of a holding on the issuer sponsored sub-register.

Collins Foods Limited, the Share Registry, the Joint Lead Managers and the Existing Investors disclaim all liability, whether in negligence or otherwise, if you sell Shares before receiving your holding statement, even if you obtained details of your holding from the Collins Foods Offer Information Line or confirmed your firm allocation through a Broker. Shares are expected to commence trading on ASX on a normal settlement basis on or about 8 August 2011.

6.10 Description of Shares


Introduction The rights and liabilities attaching to ownership of Shares arise from a combination of the Constitution, statute, ASX Listing Rules and general law. A summary of the significant rights attaching to the Shares and a description of other material provisions of the Constitution is set out below. This summary is not exhaustive nor does it constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. The summary assumes that Collins Foods Limited is admitted to the Official List of ASX. Voting at a general meeting At a general meeting of Collins Foods Limited, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy, representative or attorney has one vote on a show of hands and, on a poll, one vote for each Share held. Meetings of members Each Shareholder is entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at general meetings of Collins Foods Limited and to receive all notices, accounts and other documents required to be sent to Shareholders under the Constitution, the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules. Dividends The Board may from time to time resolve to pay dividends to Shareholders of Collins Foods Limited and fix the amount of the dividend, the time for determining entitlements to the dividend and the timing and method of payment. For further information in respect of Collins Foods Limiteds proposed dividend policy, see section 3.10. Transfer of Shares Subject to the Constitution, Shares may be transferred by a proper transfer effected in accordance with ASX Settlement Operating Rules, by a written instrument of transfer which complies with the Constitution or by any other method permitted by the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules or ASX Settlement Operating Rules. The Board may refuse to register a transfer of Shares where permitted to do so under the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules or ASX Settlement Operating Rules. The Board must refuse to register a transfer of Shares when required by the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules or ASX Settlement Operating Rules. Issue of further Shares Subject to the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules and ASX Settlement Operating Rules and any rights and restrictions attached to a class of shares, Collins Foods Limited may issue, or grant options in respect of further Shares on such terms and conditions as the Directors resolve. Winding up If Collins Foods Limited is wound up, then subject to any rights or restrictions attached to a class of shares, any surplus must be divided among Collins Foods Limiteds members in the proportions which the amount paid and payable (including amounts credited) on the Shares of a member is of the total amount paid and payable (including amounts credited) on the Shares of all members of Collins Foods Limited. Unmarketable parcels Subject to the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules and ASX Settlement Operating Rules, Collins Foods Limited may sell the Shares of a Shareholder who holds less than a marketable parcel of Shares. Share buy-backs Subject to the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules and ASX Settlement Operating Rules, Collins Foods Limited may buy back shares in itself on terms and at times determined by the Board. Proportional takeover provisions The Constitution contains provisions for Shareholder approval to be required in relation to any proportional takeover bid. These provisions will cease to apply unless renewed by special resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting by the third anniversary of the date of the Constitutions adoption.

Variation of class rights At present, Collins Foods Limiteds only class of shares on issue is ordinary shares. Subject to the Corporations Act and the terms of issue of a class of shares, the rights attaching to any class of shares may be varied or cancelled: With the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the issued shares included in that class; or By a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of those shares

In either case, the holders of not less than 10% of the votes in the class of shares, the rights of which have been varied or cancelled, may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to exercise its discretion to set aside such a variation or cancellation. Dividend reinvestment plan, dividend selection plan and bonus share plan The Constitution authorises the Directors, on any terms and at their discretion, to establish a dividend reinvestment plan (under which any member may elect that the dividends payable by Collins Foods Limited be reinvested by a subscription for securities). Directors appointment and removal Under the Constitution, the minimum number of Directors that may comprise the Board is three and the maximum is fixed by the Directors but may not be more than 10 unless the Shareholders pass a resolution varying that number. Directors are elected at annual general meetings of Collins Foods Limited. Retirement will occur on a rotational basis so that any Director who has held office for three or more years or three or more annual general meetings (excluding any Managing Director) retires at each annual general meeting of Collins Foods Limited. The Directors may also appoint a Director to fill a casual vacancy on the Board or in addition to the Directors, who will then hold office until the next annual general meeting of Collins Foods Limited. Directors voting Questions arising at a meeting of the Board will be decided by a majority of votes of the Directors present at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. In the case of an equality of votes on a resolution, the chairperson of the meeting has a casting vote. Directors remuneration The Directors, other than any executive Director (of which there are none other than Mr Kevin Perkins as at the date of this Prospectus) shall be paid by way of fees for services up to the maximum aggregate sum per annum as may be approved from time to time by Collins Foods Limited in general meeting. The current maximum aggregate sum per annum is $700,000 with the initial remuneration of the Directors set out in section 5.3.1. Any change to that maximum aggregate sum needs to be approved by Shareholders. The Constitution also makes provision for Collins Foods Limited to pay all reasonable expenses of Directors in attending meetings and carrying out their duties. Indemnities Collins Foods Limited, to the extent permitted by law, indemnifies each Director against any liability incurred by that person as an officer of Collins Foods Limited or its subsidiaries, and legal costs incurred by that person in defending an action for a liability of that person. Collins Foods Limited, to the extent permitted by law, may make a payment (whether by way of advance, loan or otherwise) to a Director in respect of legal costs incurred by that person in defending an action for a liability of that person. Collins Foods Limited, to the extent permitted by law, may pay, or agree to pay, a premium for a contract insuring a Director against any liability incurred by that person as an officer of Collins Foods Limited or its subsidiaries and legal costs incurred by that person in defending an action for a liability of that person.

95 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

Collins Foods Limited, to the extent permitted by law, may enter into an agreement or deed with a Director or a person who is, or has been, an officer of Collins Foods Limited or its subsidiaries, under which Collins Foods Limited must do all of the following: Keep books of Collins Foods Limited and allow either or both that person and that persons advisers access to those books on the terms agreed; Indemnify that person against any liability incurred by that person as an officer of Collins Foods Limited or its subsidiaries and legal costs incurred by that person in defending an action for a liability of that person; Make a payment (whether by way of advance, loan or otherwise) to that person in respect of legal costs incurred by that person in defending an action for a liability of that person; and Keep that person insured in respect of any act or omission by that person while a Director or an officer of Collins Foods Limited or its subsidiaries, on the terms agreed (including as to payment of all or part of the premium for the contract for insurance).

Amendment The Constitution can only be amended by special resolution passed by at least three-quarters of Shareholders present (in person or by proxy) and entitled to vote on the resolution at a general meeting of Collins Foods Limited. Collins Foods Limited must give at least 28 days written notice of a general meeting of Collins Foods Limited.

The Directors Collins Foods Limited 16-20 Edmondstone Street Newmarket QLD 4051 15 July 2011 Subject: Investigating Accountants Report on Historical and Forecast Financial Information and Financial Services Guide We have prepared this report on certain historical and forecast financial information of Collins Foods Limited (Collins Foods) for inclusion in a prospectus dated on or about 15 July 2011 (the Prospectus) relating to the issue of shares in the proposed initial public offer and listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (the Offer). Expressions defined in the Prospectus have the same meaning in this report. The nature of this report is such that it should be given by an entity which holds an Australian financial services licence under the Corporations Act 2001. PricewaterhouseCoopers Securities Limited, which is wholly owned by PricewaterhouseCoopers, holds the appropriate Australian financial services licence. This report is both an Investigating Accountants Report, the scope of which is set out below, and a Financial Services Guide, as attached at Appendix A of this report. Scope Collins Foods Limited has requested PricewaterhouseCoopers Securities Limited to prepare this investigating accountants report (the Report) covering the following information: i) Pro Forma consolidated historical income statements for FY2009, FY2010 and FY2011 (Pro Forma Historical Results); Pro Forma consolidated historical cash flow statements for FY2009, FY2010 and FY2011; Pro Forma consolidated historical balance sheet as at 1 May 2011 (the Pro Forma Balance Sheet) which assumes completion of the proposed transactions disclosed in section 6.1.2 of the Prospectus (the Pro Forma Transactions), (collectively, the Historical Financial Information); iv) Pro Forma consolidated forecast income statement for FY2012 (Pro Forma Forecast Results);

vi) vii)

Together, the Historical Financial Information and the Forecast Financial Information are collectively referred to as the Financial Information. This Report has been prepared for inclusion in the Prospectus. We disclaim any assumption of responsibility for any reliance on this Report or on the Financial Information to which this Report relates for any purposes other than the purpose for which it was prepared. Scope of review of Historical Financial Information The Historical Financial Information set out in section 3 of the Prospectus has been extracted from the audited financial statements of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited. The financial statements were audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers that issued an unqualified audit opinion on them. The Historical Financial Information incorporates such pro forma transactions and adjustments as is considered necessary to present the Historical Financial Information on a basis consistent with the Forecasts. The Directors are responsible for the preparation of the Historical Financial Information, including the determination of the Pro Forma Transactions and adjustments. We have conducted our review of the Historical Financial Information in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards applicable to review engagements. We made such inquiries and performed such procedures as we, in our professional judgement, considered reasonable in the circumstances including: an analytical review of the audited financial performance of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited for the relevant historical period; a review of work papers, accounting records and other documents; a review of the adjustments made to the Historical Financial Information; a review of the assumptions (which include the Pro Forma Transactions) used to compile the Pro Forma Balance Sheet; a comparison of consistency in application of the recognition and measurement principles under Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia, and the accounting policies adopted by Collins Foods Limited disclosed in the Appendix to the Prospectus; and enquiry of Directors, management and others

2 of 5

99 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

These procedures do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, thus the level of assurance provided is less than given in an audit. We have not performed an audit and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on the Historical Financial Information. Review statement on Historical Financial Information

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that: the Pro Forma Balance Sheet has not been properly prepared on the basis of the Pro Forma Transactions; the Pro Forma Transactions do not form a reasonable basis for the Pro Forma Balance Sheet; the Historical Financial Information, as set out in Section 3 of the Prospectus does not present fairly: i) the Pro Forma consolidated historical income statements for FY2009, FY2010 and FY2011;

ii) the Pro Forma consolidated historical cash flow statements for FY2009, FY2010 and FY2011; and iii) the Pro Forma consolidated historical balance sheet as at 1 May 2011 which assumes completion of the Pro Forma Transactions in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles prescribed under Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia, and the accounting policies adopted by Collins Foods Limited disclosed in the Appendix to the Prospectus. Scope of review of Forecasts The Directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Forecasts, including the best estimate assumptions (which include the Pro Forma Transactions) on which they are based. Our review of the best estimate assumptions underlying the Forecasts was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards applicable to review engagements. Our procedures consisted primarily of enquiry and comparison and other such analytical review procedures as we considered necessary to form an opinion as to whether anything has come to our attention which causes us to believe that: (a) the best estimate assumptions do not provide a reasonable basis for the Forecasts;

3 of 5

100 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

7 INVestIgAtINg AccouNtANts report

(b)

in all material respects, the Forecasts are not properly prepared on the basis of the best estimate assumptions and presented fairly in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles prescribed in Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia, and the accounting policies of Collins Foods Limited disclosed in the Appendix of the Prospectus; or the Forecasts are unreasonable

(c)

The Forecasts have been prepared by the Directors to provide investors with a guide to Collins Foods Limiteds potential future financial performance based upon the achievement of certain economic, operating, development and trading assumptions about future events and actions that have not yet occurred and may not necessarily occur. There is a considerable degree of subjective judgement involved in the preparation of the Forecasts. Actual results may vary materially from the Forecasts and the variation may be materially positive or negative. Accordingly, investors should have regard to the description of investment risks set out in section 4 of the Prospectus. Our review of the Forecasts and the best estimate assumptions upon which the Forecasts are based is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. A review of this nature provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and we do not express an audit opinion on the Forecasts included in the Prospectus. Review statement on the Forecasts Based on our review of the Forecasts, which is not an audit, and the reasonableness of the best estimate assumptions giving rise to the Forecasts, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that: (a) (b) the best estimate assumptions set out in section 3.8 of the Prospectus do not provide a reasonable basis for the Forecasts; in all material respects, the Forecasts are not properly prepared on the basis of the best estimate assumptions and presented fairly in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles prescribed in Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia, and the accounting policies of Collins Foods Limited disclosed in the Appendix of the Prospectus; or the Forecasts are unreasonable

(c)

The best estimate assumptions set out in section 3.8 of the Prospectus are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies often outside the control of Collins Foods Limited. If events do not occur as assumed, actual results and distributions achieved by Collins Foods Limited may vary significantly from the Forecasts. Accordingly, we do not confirm or guarantee the achievement of the Forecasts, as future events, by their very nature, are not capable of independent substantiation.

Subsequent events Apart from the matters dealt with in this Report, and having regard to the scope of our Report, to the best of our knowledge and belief no material transactions or events outside of the ordinary course of business of Collins Foods Limited have come to our attention that would require comment on, or adjustment to, the information referred to in our Report or that would cause such information to be misleading or deceptive. Independence or disclosure of interest PricewaterhouseCoopers Securities Limited does not have any interest in the outcome of the Offer other than the preparation of this Report and participation in due diligence procedures for which normal professional fees will be received. Liability PricewaterhouseCoopers Securities Limited has consented to the inclusion of this Report in the Prospectus in the form and context in which it is included. The liability of PricewaterhouseCoopers Securities Limited is limited to the inclusion of this Report in the Prospectus. PricewaterhouseCoopers Securities Limited makes no representation regarding, and has no liability for, any other statements or other material in, or any omissions from, the Prospectus.

Summary of agreements with Yum!

Collins Foods Limited and various Collins Foods companies (referred to as Collins Foods in this section 8.1) has entered into a series of agreements with subsidiaries of Yum! (referred to as Yum! in this section 8.1), pursuant to which it will operate its KFC restaurants with Yum! as franchisor from Completion of the Offer. Key terms of these arrangements are described in sections 8.1.1 to 8.1.5 below.

8.1.1 Master Franchising Deed


Under the Master Franchising Deed, Yum! agrees to enter into Individual Franchise Agreements with Collins Foods in respect of 116 Collins Foods KFC restaurants and transfer the existing franchise agreements in respect of three Collins Foods KFC restaurants. Collins Foods agrees to pay $5.1 million (exclusive of GST) in respect of the aggregate amount of the initial and transfer franchise fees payable under the Individual Franchise Agreements (refer below) to Yum! on or shortly after Completion of the Offer. Collins Foods will also pay a royalty fee of 6% of annual revenues of its KFC revenues to Yum!. While currently the only KFC operator in Queensland, Collins Foods does not have exclusive rights to operate KFC restaurants in that state. Collins Foods is restricted from holding any interests in or engaging in or performing any services for other food businesses without Yum!s prior approval, which may be withheld in Yum!s absolute discretion if more than 20% of the food products prepared, marketed or sold by that other food business consists of pizza, pizza and pasta collectively, ready-to-eat chicken, Mexican food, or beef burgers. Breach of this restriction by Collins Foods will entitle Yum! to terminate the Master Franchising Deed. There is a specific exemption from the restriction for Collins Foods Sizzler business. Collins Foods agrees to ensure that the ratio of total net debt 1 to EBITDA is less than 4.1 times, and the ratio of EBITDA to Debt Service Amount (being the aggregate of interest expenses and repayments of principal amounts under the finance debt and finance leases) is greater than 1.35 times. Collins Foods is restricted from declaring dividends if as a result of the payment of those dividends Collins Foods would be likely to breach those ratios. Collins Foods expects to remain in compliance with these ratios. A failure to comply with these ratios or the restrictions on the declaration of dividends will entitle Yum! to terminate the Master Franchising Deed (or to withdraw its consent to Collins Foods opening new restaurants as referred to in section 8.1.2). Collins Foods grants Yum! a first right of refusal in relation to any proposed sale of Collins Foods companies that are parties to the Master Franchising Deed and any proposed transfer or assignment of the Master Franchising Deed. Additionally, Collins Foods agrees that it must seek a consent from Yum! to continue operating each of its restaurants following the occurrence of a change in control of Collins Foods and must pay a transfer fee (currently $6,300 per restaurant) following the grant of such consent. A change in control of Collins Foods will occur if one or more persons individually or collectively acquires in any of the Collins Foods companies that are a party to the Master Franchising Deed a relevant interest (as defined in the Corporations Act) or economic interest in 50% or more of the companys ordinary shares, all or a material part of the assets, property or business of the company, or control (within the meaning of section 50AA of the Corporations Act) of the company, or merges with the company. Collins Foods will also agree to obtain Yum!s consent before granting any security to lenders that is superior to Yum!s interests under any agreements between Collins Foods and Yum!. A breach of any of these obligations will entitle Yum! to terminate the Master Franchising Deed. The Master Franchising Deed will expire when the last of the Individual Franchise Agreements expires. Collins Foods and Yum! may terminate the Master Franchising Deed for material breach or the insolvency of the other party. Yum! may also terminate the Master Franchising Deed if negative public perceptions associated with Collins Foods would have a continuing negative impact on its business.

8.1.2 Facility Actions Deed


The Facility Actions Deed sets out the requirements to upgrade, relocate or rebuild 108 of the 119 KFC (including 24 signage only upgrades) restaurants operated by Collins Foods during the five year period following Completion of the Offer. While Collins Foods is in substantial compliance with this obligation, Yum! grants Collins Foods (under the Master Franchising Deed) the right to open up to seven new KFC restaurants during each of those five years (subject to site availability and Yum! approval).

Calculated as the outstanding amounts owing by Collins Foods under all finance debt less cash or cash equivalents.

8 ADDItIoNAl INForMAtIoN
A failure by Collins Foods to comply with its obligations under the Facility Actions Deed will entitle Yum! under the Master Franchising Deed to require Collins Foods to pay specified monies to an escrow agent. Those monies will only be released from escrow to Collins Foods for the purpose of enabling Collins Foods to comply with its obligations under the Facility Actions Deed to make specified refurbishments to restaurants. A failure by Collins Foods to pay such monies would entitle Yum! to terminate the Master Franchising Deed. The Facility Actions Deed will expire five years after Completion of the Offer, after which time the parties have agreed to negotiate in good faith and use best endeavours to enter into further facilities action deeds with five year terms.

8.1.3 Individual Franchise Agreements


The Individual Franchise Agreements contain the substantive franchise rights and obligations, including the grant of a non-exclusive right to use the KFC trade marks, service marks and trade names and the KFC system for preparing, marketing and selling food in relation to a specified restaurant. Collins Foods is required to comply with various operational policies mandated by Yum!, which may be changed by Yum! from time to time, and may be required by Yum! to upgrade, modify or renovate the specified restaurant. In addition to the payment of initial and continuing fees (referred to in section 8.1.1 above) Collins Foods must also invest in advertising by paying an amount equal to 5% of its KFC revenues to ADCO, and a further 1% of its KFC revenues on local advertising approved by Yum!. A number of the obligations of the parties under the Master Franchising Deed are repeated in each Individual Franchising Agreement, including the non-compete and non-assignment obligations, the grant of a first right of refusal in favour of Yum!, and to take action if requested to upgrade the relevant restaurant. The terms of the Individual Franchise Agreements range from eight through to 12 years, with an average term of approximately 10 years. Each may be renewed upon expiry by Collins Foods for a further 10 years, conditional on the payment of the required fee at the time of renewal and satisfaction of agreed conditions. Yum! may terminate an Individual Franchise Agreement, including for material or repeat breach of the Individual Franchise Agreement or other agreements, misconduct, insolvency, damage to its trade marks or goodwill by Collins Foods, or if the restaurant ceases operations for more than three days without its approval.

8.1.4 Marketing Agreement


The Marketing Agreement sets out the terms under which Yum! will procure that ADCO provides marketing, technical and financial services associated with KFC marketing, media and promotional activities in Queensland to, and consults with, Collins Foods KFC restaurants. The Marketing Agreement will expire five years after Completion of the Offer, after which time Collins Foods may renew it for a further five year period.

8.1.5 Supply Agreement


The Supply Agreement sets out the terms under which Yum! sources and negotiates purchasing arrangements for food, packaging, consumables and equipment to all KFC restaurants in Australia. Collins Foods agrees to pay a supply chain contribution amount of up to 0.35% of annual revenues to Yum!. Collins Foods will be entitled to fully participate in and appoint one representative to the KFC Supply Chain Council established by Yum! to consult with and participate in discussions to agree strategies for the supply chain for KFC restaurants. Collins Foods will be entitled to conduct its own supply chain management for distributors, small-wares (eg utensils, cleaning products) and for any other suppliers approved by Yum!.

8.3 Summary of Sale Deeds


Under the Sale Deeds, each of the Existing Investors has agreed to sell all of its shares and other interests in Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited and SingCo Trading Pte Ltd (the companies that own the Collins Foods businesses in Australia and Asia respectively as at the date of this Prospectus) (the existing Interests) to CFG Finance Pty Limited ACN 151 677 351, a wholly owned subsidiary of Collins Foods Limited, free from encumbrances and third party rights, or otherwise acknowledge the satisfaction of obligations owed to it by Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited or SingCo Trading Pte Ltd, for an aggregate consideration of approximately $91.2 million. The consideration will be paid partly in cash ($60.4 million) and partly by way of the issue of Shares ($30.8 million). Completion of the sale of the Existing Interests under the Sale Deeds and Completion of the Offer (including the allotment of Shares to Shareholders) are inter-conditional. The aggregate consideration of $91.2 million is calculated as $232.5 million (the Offer Price multiplied by the number of Shares in Collins Foods Limited following the Offer) less $115.0 million (the amount by which pro forma net debt in Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited and its subsidiaries is to be paid down on Completion of the Offer) and less $26.3 million (being the aggregate of the other payments under the heading Uses of funds referred to in the table in section 6.1.2). The amounts referred to in that table under the heading Uses of funds are estimates. The Sale Deeds provide that, to the extent that the latter two of these amounts decrease, including after taking into account the effect of tax refunds, the consideration payable to the Existing Investors will increase. The final impact of any tax refunds in relation to these costs is expected to be known by June 2013 with any final adjustments to the consideration payable by Collins Foods to Existing Investors to be made as soon as practicable thereafter. The Existing Investors were entitled to receive the consideration for their Existing Interests in the form of cash, or a combination of cash and Shares . The Funds advised by Pacific Equity Partners have irrevocably elected to receive 0% of the consideration payable to them for their Existing Interests in the form of Shares. Kevin Perkins has irrevocably elected to receive 82.0% of the consideration payable to him for his Existing Interests in the form of Shares. These Shares will be subject to escrow arrangements as set out in section 6.6. Other members of the Management team have irrevocably elected to receive 30.9% of the consideration payable to them for their Existing Interests in the form of Shares. These Shares will be subject to escrow arrangements as set out in section 6.6. In total, $30.8 million of consideration will be satisfied by way of the issue of the Shares to Existing Investors. Shares offered to Existing Investors under the Sale Deeds are issued with disclosure under this Prospectus. The Sale Deeds oblige the Existing Investors to perform various actions contemporaneously with Completion of the Offer, including to procure that all of the directors appointed to the boards of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited and SingCo Trading Pte Ltd nominated by the Funds advised by Pacific Equity Partners resign with immediate effect upon Completion of the Offer. A failure to comply with any of these obligations will result in the Existing Investors being in default under the Sale Deed. CFG Finance Pty Limited has no material assets, liabilities or operations other than its interest in the Sale Deeds described above and in the New Banking Facilities described in section 3.4.3. The directors of CFG Finance Pty Limited are Russell Tate, Newman Manion and Bronwyn Morris and the sole shareholder of CFG Finance Pty Limited is Collins Foods Limited. CFG Finance Pty Limited will borrow from Collins Foods Limited, and draw down under the New Banking Facilities, all of the monies required to fund the acquisition of all of the issued share capital of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited and SingCo Trading Pte Ltd from the Existing Investors, and perform a number of other matters as part of Completion of the Offer.

The comments below provide a general outline of Australian tax issues for Australian tax resident Shareholders that hold Shares in Collins Foods Limited on capital account for Australian income tax purposes. The comments do not apply to Shareholders that hold the Shares on revenue account or as trading stock, or to non-Australian tax resident Shareholders. They also do not apply to Shareholders that are banks, insurance companies or taxpayers that carry on a business of trading in shares. The comments below are based on the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999, relevant stamp duty legislation, applicable case law and published Australian Taxation Office and State/Territory Revenue Authority rulings, determinations and statements of administrative practice at the date of this Prospectus. The tax consequences discussed below may alter if there is a change to the tax law after the date of this Prospectus. They do not take into account the tax law of countries other than Australia. The comments are general in nature and are not intended to be an authoritative or complete statement of the tax law applicable to the particular circumstances of every Shareholder. Therefore they should not be relied upon as tax advice. Shareholders are advised to seek independent professional advice regarding the Australian and, if applicable, foreign tax consequences arising in respect of holding and disposing of their Shares, taking into account their specific circumstances.

8.6.1 Income tax treatment of dividends received for Australian resident Shareholders
Dividends distributed by the company to a Shareholder will constitute assessable income of an Australian tax resident Shareholder. Shareholders should include in their assessable income the dividend received, together with any franking credit attached to that dividend. Where the franking credit is included in the Shareholders assessable income, the Shareholder will generally be entitled to a corresponding tax offset against tax payable by the Shareholder. To be eligible for the franking credit and tax offset, a Shareholder must satisfy the holding period rule and related payments rule. This requires that a Shareholder hold the Shares in Collins Foods Limited at risk for a specified period of not less than 45 days (not including the date of acquisition and the date of disposal). In addition, a Shareholder must not be obliged to make a related payment in respect of any dividend, unless they hold the Shares at risk for the required holding period around all dividend dates. Shareholders should seek professional advice to determine if these requirements, as they apply to them, have been satisfied. The holding period rules will not apply to a Shareholder who is an individual whose tax offset entitlement (for all franked distributions received in the income year) does not exceed A$5,000 for the income year in which the franked dividend is received. Where a Shareholder is an individual or a complying superannuation entity, the Shareholder will generally be entitled to a refund to the extent that the franking credits attached to that Shareholders dividends exceed that Shareholders income tax liability for the income year. Where a Shareholder is a company, the Shareholder will generally be entitled to claim a carry forward tax loss calculated by reference to any excess of the franking credit attached to the Shareholders dividends over the Shareholders tax liability for the income year. Shareholders that are companies should seek specific advice regarding the tax consequences of dividends received in respect of the Shares in Collins Foods Limited and the calculation of carry forward tax losses arising from excess tax offsets. Special rules apply to Shareholders that are trustees (other than trustees of complying superannuation entities) or partnerships. These Shareholders should seek specific advice regarding the tax consequences of dividends received in respect of the Shares in Collins Foods Limited. Where the Shareholder is a corporate shareholder, franked dividends received by the Shareholder will generally give rise to a franking credit in the Shareholders franking account (subject to the Shareholder satisfying the rules outlined above for claiming a tax offset).

8.6.2 Capital gains tax (CGT) implications for Australian resident Shareholders
Where a Shareholder holds their Shares in Collins Foods Limited on capital account, the disposal of the Shares will be taxed under the CGT rules. For CGT purposes, the Shareholder will make a capital gain where the capital proceeds received for their Shares exceeds the CGT cost base of their Shares. Similarly, the Shareholder will make a capital loss where the capital proceeds received for their shares are less than the reduced cost base of their Shares. Broadly, the cost base and reduced cost base of the Shares would usually be equal to the amount paid to acquire the Shares. (The cost base and reduced cost base of the Shares may be different if a CGT roll-over applied to the acquisition of the Shares.) Certain other costs associated with holding the Shares, such as incidental costs of acquisition and disposal, may be added to the cost base and reduced cost base. Generally, all capital gains and losses made by a Shareholder for an income year, plus any net capital loss carried forward from an earlier year, will need to be aggregated to determine whether the Shareholder has made a net capital gain or a net capital loss for the year. A net capital gain is included in the Shareholders assessable income whereas a net capital loss is carried forward and may be available to set off against capital gains of later years (subject to the satisfaction of the loss recoupment rules for companies). If a Shareholder is an individual, complying superannuation entity or trust, and has held the Shares for at least 12 months or more before disposal of the Shares, the Shareholder will prima facie be entitled to a CGT discount for any capital gain made on the disposal of the Shares. Capital gains may be discounted by half in the case of individuals and trusts, and by one-third in the case of complying superannuation entities. Shareholders that are companies are generally not entitled to a CGT discount. Where the Shareholder is a trustee of a trust that has held the Shares for at least 12 months or more before disposal, the CGT discount may flow through to the beneficiaries of that trust if those beneficiaries are not companies. Shareholders that are trustees should seek specific advice regarding the tax consequences of distributions to beneficiaries who may qualify for discounted capital gains.

8.6.3 Tax File Numbers (TFN)


A Shareholder is not required to quote their TFN to Collins Foods Limited. However, if a Shareholders TFN or exemption details are not provided, Australian tax may be required to be deducted by Collins Foods Limited from certain distributions (other than fully franked dividends) at the maximum marginal tax rate plus the Medicare levy. A Shareholder that holds shares as part of an enterprise may quote their Australian Business Number instead of their TFN.

8.6.4 Goods and Services Tax (GST) implications


No GST should be payable by Shareholders in respect of the acquisition or disposal of their Shares in Collins Foods Limited. The extent to which each Shareholder is entitled to recover any GST incurred on costs relating to the acquisition or disposal of Shares in Collins Foods Limited will depend on the individual circumstances of each Shareholder. No GST should be payable by Shareholders on receiving dividends distributed by Collins Foods Limited.

8.6.5 Stamp duty


No Australian stamp duty should be payable by Shareholders in respect of their acquisition or disposal of their Shares. Individual Shareholders should obtain their own independent advice depending on their individual circumstances.

Historical cost convention The Financial Information has also been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss. Subsidiaries The Financial Information comprises the financial information of the Group. All transactions and balances between companies in the Group are eliminated on consolidation. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. Where an entity began to be controlled during a reporting period, the results are included only from the date control commenced. Where a subsidiary ceased to be controlled during a reporting period, the results are included only through to the date control ceased. Except as disclosed in section 3.2.1, in relation to the acquisition of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited by CFG Finance Pty Limited, the acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by Collins Foods Limited. Consistent accounting policies are employed in the preparation and presentation of the Financial Information. Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the Group has passed control of the goods to the customer, interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest method and traineeship income is recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established. Revenue arising from the sale of property, plant and equipment is recognised when the risks and rewards have been transferred, which is considered to occur on settlement. Segment reporting A business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other business segments. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Board of Directors. Income tax The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current periods taxable income based on the national income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. Collins Foods Limited and its wholly owned Australian controlled entities intend to implement the tax consolidation legislation. Collins Foods Limited, as the head entity in the tax consolidated group and its wholly owned Australian controlled entities continues to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a standalone taxpayer in its own right. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Collins Foods Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group. Assets or liabilities arising under the tax funding agreement with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group. Foreign currency translation Items included in the Financial Information of each of the Groups entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the functional and presentation currency of the Group. Transactions in foreign currencies are converted at the exchange rates in effect at the dates of each transaction. Amounts payable to or by the Group in foreign currencies have been translated into Australian currency at the exchange rates ruling on balance date. Gains and losses arising from fluctuations in exchange rates on monetary assets and liabilities are included in the income statement in the period in which the exchange rates change, except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges. Employee entitlements Provision has been made in the accounts for benefits accruing to employees up to balance date, such as annual leave, long service leave and bonuses. No provision is made for non-vesting sick leave as the anticipated pattern of future sick leave taken indicates that accumulated non-vesting leave will never be paid. Annual leave provisions are measured at their nominal amounts using the remuneration rates expected to apply at the time of settlement and are classified in other payables. Long service leave provisions are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match estimated future cash outflows. All on-costs, including superannuation, payroll tax, workers compensation premiums and fringe benefits tax are included in the determination of provisions. Cost of sales For the purposes of the Financial Information, cost of sales includes the carrying amount of inventories sold during the reporting period and an estimated allocation of overheads incurred in relation to those inventories. Cash and cash equivalents For the purposes of the Financial Information, cash includes cash on hand, at call deposits with banks or financial institutions, and other short-term, highly liquid investments in money market instruments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Borrowings Bank loans are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities, which are not incremental costs relating to the actual drawdown of the facility, are capitalised and amortised on a straight line basis over the term of the facility.

127 COLLINS FOODS LIMITED PROSPECTUS

Borrowing costs Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed. Receivables Trade and related party receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less any provision for doubtful debts. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement no more than 30 days from the date of recognition. Collectability of trade and related party receivables are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the income statement within other expenses. When a receivable for which an impairment allowance has been recognised becomes uncollectable in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the income statement. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is assigned on a first-in first-out basis and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the stock and bringing it to the existing condition and location. Business combinations Except as set out in section 3.2.1 in respect of the acquisition of Collins Foods Holding Pty Limited by CFG Finance Pty Limited, the acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, shares issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. Where equity instruments are issued in an acquisition, the value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of fair value. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity. Transaction costs arising from business combinations are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Groups share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired. Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entitys incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Impairment of assets Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the assets carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assets fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).

Property, plant and equipment All property, plant and equipment is recorded at historical cost less depreciation.

Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Property, plant and equipment, excluding freehold land, is depreciated at rates based upon the expected useful economic life as follows: Method Buildings Leasehold improvements Plant and equipment Equipment under finance lease Straight line Straight line Straight line Straight line life 20 years Primary term of the lease 8 years 4 to 8 years

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the unexpired period of the primary lease or the estimated life of the improvement, whichever is the shorter. Finance leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the assets estimated useful life and the lease term. The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. An assets carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the assets carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. The gain or loss on disposal of all non-current assets is determined as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset at the time of disposal and the proceeds on disposal, and is included in the income statement of the Group in the year of disposal. Leases Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the leases inception at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other long-term payables. Finance lease payments are allocated between interest expense and reduction of lease liability over the term of the lease. The interest expense is determined by applying the interest rate implicit in the lease to the outstanding lease liability at the beginning of each lease payment period. Finance leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the assets estimated useful life and the lease term. Where the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor, leased assets are classified as operating leases and are not capitalised. Rental payments are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Groups share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. Deferred franchise rights Costs associated with franchise licences which provide a benefit for more than one financial year are deferred and amortised over the remaining term of the franchise licence. Capitalised costs associated with renewal options for franchise licences are deferred and amortised over the renewal option period. The unamortised balance is reviewed each balance date and charged to the income statement to the extent that future benefits are no longer probable.

Other intangibles Sizzler brand Sizzler brand intangibles which are owned and registered by the Group are considered to have a useful life of 20 years and are amortised accordingly. These intangibles will be tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Sizzler brand intangibles are carried at amortised cost less impairment losses. Derivatives Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group designates certain derivatives as either cash flow hedges or fair value hedges. The Group documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of hedged items. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the income statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in reserves in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement. Changes in fair value of any derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the income statement. Amounts accumulated in equity are recycled in the income statement in the periods when the hedged item will affect profit or loss. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the measurement of the initial cost or carrying amount of the asset or liability. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the income statement. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the income statement. Accounts payable These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided prior to the end of the reporting period and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Provisions Provisions for legal claims and make good obligations are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. As the Group is required to restore the leased premises of certain retail stores to their original condition upon the exit, an annual review of leased sites is conducted to revise its estimate of the provision required. However, as leases are traditionally renewed, the Group only recognises a provision for those restaurants where an estimate of make good costs can be measured and will result in a probable outflow of funds. The provision recognised is the present value of the estimated expenditure required to remove any leasehold improvements and decommissioning costs. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.

Goods and services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (gst) except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense. The net amount of GST payable to the taxation authority is included as part of trade and other payables. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows. Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and discontinued operations Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale and stated at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of the asset (or disposal group) to fair value less costs to sell. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset (or disposal group), but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. A gain or loss not previously recognised by the date of sale of the non-current asset (or disposal group) is recognised at the date of derecognition. Non-current assets (including those that are part of a disposal group) are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be recognised. Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from other assets in the balance sheet. The liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from other liabilities in the balance sheet. A discontinued operation is a component of the entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately on the face of the income statement. Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the new share issue are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Dividends Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared at or before the end of the financial year but not distributed at balance date. The dividend distribution to Shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Collins Foods Limiteds and Groups financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Board of Directors.
