In addition, from a review of the superb Google Finance Website and company investor relations websites, I found 20 additional companies headquartered in Australia which reported their financial statements in A$s and which had Stock Market Capitalizations now of more than A$10 billion.
I excluded from these 20 one Utility Company and one Company whose financial reporting presented at its website was very limited.
