  14. Impact of appreciating Australian dollar • Immaterial impact on FY07 result because the reduction in the value of US profits relative to FY06 has been offset by increases in the value of profits denominated in British pounds. • Estimated impact relative to FY06: • Revenue reduced by $373K • EBITDA reduced by $ 93K • Larger adverse impact expected next year, covered on “outlook” slide • Adverse impact on net assets due to re-translation of net assets denominated in US dollars and British pounds at period end rates, reflecting the full appreciation of the A$ against these currencies. This impact is reflected in the movement in the foreign currency translation reserve.
