Approach to Investing Investment Philosophy

Our investment philosophy is built on taking a medium to long term view on companies in a diversified portfolio with an emphasis on identifying and investing in quality companies that are likely to sustainably grow their earnings and dividends over this timeframe.

Quality in this context is an outcome of our assessment of the following factors:

  1. We prefer companies that have a leadership position or are developing one within the industry in which they operate. This will often mean we are investing in a unique set of assets with competitive advantages that produces attractive returns on invested capital.

  2. As a long term, tax aware investor we seek to be in companies that have a long term sustainable business model, with low risk of disruption. This helps to ensure portfolio turnover remains low. The analysis may consider technological disruption, environmental issues, including the impact of climate change, and social risks as all of these factors can have a material impact on the assessment of a company’s long term sustainability.

  3. We consider how a company’s business can be potentially impacted by influences outside the control of management, such as change in government regulation and/or policy.

  4. We are attracted to companies with outstanding management teams and boards with strong governance processes, whose interests are

closely aligned with shareholders, and act in the best interest of all their stakeholders, including their employees, customers, suppliers and wider communities. We consider matters including safety, diversity, social impacts, environmental impact and modern slavery where material or appropriate in the context of that company. We regularly review and meet with companies to ensure ongoing alignment with our investment frameworks. Our process may include an assessment of the board in terms of their past performance, history of capital allocation, level of accountability, mix of skills, relevant experience and succession planning. We also consider a company’s degree of transparency and disclosure.

Voting on resolutions is one of the key functions that a shareholder has in ensuring better long term returns and management of investment risk. We take input from proxy advisers but conduct our own evaluation of the merits of any resolution. We vote on all company resolutions as part of our regular engagement with the companies in the portfolio and our voting record is on the company’s website. We actively engage with companies when we are concerned about resolutions that are not aligned with shareholders’ interests. We seek to stay engaged with the companies and satisfy ourselves that any issues are taken seriously and worked through constructively. Ideally we seek to remain invested to influence a satisfactory outcome for stakeholders.

continued About the Company

  1. We prefer companies with more stable income flows. We are wary of companies that have large, inconsistent profit streams.

  2. We like our companies to be financially strong and the assessment of the balance sheet and the degree to which the company is self-funding is critical in our analysis. Cash generation is also an important consideration.

Analysis of the above factors helps to inform us of the structure of the industry and a company’s sustainable competitive position as well as the quality of the people running the business, strength of the balance sheet and consistency of earnings. Within this analysis some key financial metrics are considered. These include return on capital employed, return on equity, the level of gearing in the balance sheet, margins and free cash flow generation.

Reporting of social and environmental issues is being influenced by the development of climate-related disclosures as required by Australian Corporate Legislation. Their introduction in Australia should enable investors over time to better make informed decisions on these issues based on company disclosures arising from these standards. Assessment of commitments and plans by companies to reach net zero by 2050 may also be considered having regard to several factors. These include the industry in which they operate, progress against their plans, their broader contribution to social good in addressing the challenge of reducing global carbon emissions, and the impact on their value if they fail to achieve their stated goals. In applying external data for benchmarking*, our most recent assessment of the carbon intensity of AMCIL’s portfolio showed that it is less than the S&P/ASX 200 Index.

Alongside the assessment of quality is an analysis of the ability of companies to grow earnings over time, which ultimately should drive dividend growth.

Recognising value is also an important aspect of sound long term investing. Short term measures such as the price earnings ratio, price to book or price to sales may be of some value, but aren’t necessarily strong predictors of future performance. Our assessment of value tries to capture the opportunity a business has to prosper and thrive over the medium to long term.

In building the investment portfolio with the principles outlined, we believe we can offer investors a portfolio of quality companies structured to deliver total returns ahead of the Australian equity market over the long term.

Review of Operations and Activities

Profit and Interim Dividend

Half-year profit after tax was $4.1 million, up 14.8 per cent from the previous corresponding period last year. This increase was primarily because of higher levels of activity in the options portfolio during this period in comparison to the prior corresponding period.

The Board has declared an interim dividend of 1.0 cent per share fully franked, the same as the interim dividend last year. Taking into account the final dividend paid (including the special dividend) and the interim dividend declared, the yield including franking on the share price of $1.01 at the end of December is 9.2 per cent.

Market and Portfolio Performance

The S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index (not including the benefit of franking) rose 10.3 per cent in the calendar year, with a large part of this return coming from the Resource and Banking sectors.

Resource stocks had the strongest returns, up 35.1 per cent, buoyed by positive rises in gold, copper, rare earths and, most recently, lithium commodity prices, leading to a 104.3 per cent return for the mid-cap resources index and 73.0 per cent for the small-cap resources index. Gold, which is included in these figures, was up 127.0 per cent for the year. AMCIL is also typically not a large investor in the Resources sector, where

momentum has been strong, given the highly cyclical nature of many companies within this area of the market.

Banks also performed strongly over the 12 months, with this sector delivering a return of 16.7 per cent as valuation multiples remained at elevated levels. AMCIL does not have any of the traditional major trading banks in the portfolio at this point following recent sales of remaining holdings given valuations in our opinion look very stretched against historical averages. In contrast, Industrials were only up 4.0 per cent over the calendar year.

Major sectors to underperform were Healthcare, down 23.7 per cent (driven largely by CSL), and Information Technology, down 20.8 per cent as many companies in this sector retraced the gains from last year as valuation multiples returned from elevated levels.

In these market conditions, where there has been greater short-term focus on value and swings in momentum, this proved to be a very challenging environment with AMCIL’s six-month portfolio return to 31 December 2025 negative 7.0 per cent including franking. The S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index return over this period was positive 4.2 per cent including franking. The corresponding figures for the 12 months to 31 December 2025 were negative 9.0 per cent and positive 11.5 per cent respectively.

continued Review of Operations and Activities

During the period there has been a pull-back in sectors where AMCIL is overweight, which has meant share prices of many holdings in the portfolio where we are substantially overweight the Index fell. This includes companies in the top 20 holdings in the portfolio such as CSL, Macquarie Technology Group, ARB Corporation, CAR Group, Mainfreight and REA Group, as well as other holdings in the portfolio including WiseTech Global, James Hardie Industries (because of a poorly structured large acquisition), Gentrack, EQT Holdings (which has been sold), Block and Redox.

We consider many of these companies to be quality businesses that have the capacity to generate long term earnings growth, which can produce attractive reinvestment opportunities and dividends.

Having minimal exposure to the major trading banks through the year because of valuation concerns was another key detractor from performance.

IDP Education has also been a disappointing investment for us, having a material negative impact on performance.

In the context of recent performance, we remain committed to the quality of the portfolio and its ability to generate appropriate returns for shareholders over the long term (which is our investment timeframes) notwithstanding adjustments made over time when conditions dictate changes in repose to market opportunities, consideration of valuations or a change in the underlying investment thesis.

8 Half-Year to 31 December 2025

Adjustments to the Portfolio

Buying was relatively modest through the period as we were cautious on the elevated valuations that many companies are trading at.

The holding in Woolworths Group, which we asses as being a quality business, was added to because of its attractive dividend yield combined with its undemanding valuation at the time. It had recently delivered some disappointing financial results because of poor execution in its core supermarkets business. We see the issues as temporary and believe this has given us the opportunity to invest in a high-returning, defensive business that provides our portfolio with a good mix of fully franked dividend income plus growth.

The other addition of note to the portfolio (which was still modest) was Woodside Energy Group given its propensity to deliver strong cash flows in the more immediate future.

During the period AMCIL established a new position in Nanosonics, a manufacturer and distributor of ultrasound probe disinfectors. The company has a solid growth outlook and a strong management team. Share price weakness created an opportunity to establish a position at attractive prices.

PEXA (digital property settlement platform) was also added to the portfolio. The core Australian business is high quality with annuity style revenues, and tangible progress is being made with its United Kingdom growth opportunity.

continued Review of Operations and Activities

Major sales included the complete disposal of remaining holdings in the banks, Westpac Banking Corporation and National Australia Bank, as the share price of both these companies enjoyed good gains through the period as bank valuations continued to remain highly elevated.

We have reduced our investment in James Hardie Industries. The company still has an attractive long term growth opportunity, but a stretched balance sheet combined with management and board turnover mean the risk profile has increased. The valuation has returned to very reasonable levels.

Therefore, we have decided to maintain an investment in James Hardie Industries but reduced it to what we consider to be a more appropriate size, given the changed circumstances.

Other sales included trimming the position in Netwealth Group early in the half as the share price displayed continued strength, and Equity Trustees, which was removed from the portfolio given the significant changes in its operating industry, which may challenge some components of its business.

Share Price Performance

The following chart (Figure 3) highlights where AMCIL’s share price was trading relative to the net asset backing at 31 December 2025. Over the six-month period, the share price has moved from a discount of 16.4 per cent to the net asset backing of $1.29 per share at 30 June 2025 to a discount of 9.8 per cent to the net asset backing of $1.12 per share at 31 December 2025.

Outlook

The market is looking expensive, especially against long term averages for the market’s price to earnings ratio and dividend yield.

This strength in the market is despite extreme geopolitical uncertainty and a more uncertain outlook for economic growth and inflation in Australia and elsewhere.

continued Review of Operations and Activities

We remain cautious in this environment and, as a result, have a strong cash position to take advantage of any buying opportunities in selected companies that we judge to be quality and have attractive long term growth prospects.

In this context, we continue to believe that the portfolio is appropriately positioned with many holdings having strong balance sheets, and well positioned to deliver continued profit growth to deliver our long term investment objectives.
