Tax paid can differ substantially from a headline 30% of revenue because company tax is levied on taxable income, not revenue, after deductions and offsets. Ownership is based on disclosed substantial shareholders; “foreign-majority” means disclosed non-Australian holdings exceed 50% of the holdings shown.

If this is useful, a dollar or two helps keep it running.
