The Directors declared a fully franked interim dividend of 4.0 cents per share on 26 February 2008 with the entitlement date being 5 March 2008. Accordingly the March 2008 amounts reflect the payment of this dividend.

The NTA per share after tax is higher than the NTA before tax because MMA is recognising a deferred tax asset of $7.1m on the unrealised losses on its listed securities and unit trusts.

MMA is a long term investor and does not intend disposing of its total portfolio.
