The Final Distribution will bring distributions in respect of the year ended 30 June 2015 to 11.90 cents per stapled security.

4. Operating and financial review

Overview and strategy

The key strategic objective of Elanor is to grow funds under management by identifying and originating investments that deliver strong performance for both Elanor security holders and Elanor funds management capital partners. Elanor seeks to co-invest with its capital partners in funds managed by Elanor for both strategic and alignment purposes.

Investments are also originated and held on balance sheet where they provide opportunities for future coinvestment by external capital partners.

Elanor’s core sectors focus is in hotels, tourism and leisure and real estate. In addition, special situations investments incorporate assets that are high yielding and exhibit strong real estate backing that may fall outside of the sectors in which the Group currently focuses.

During the year Elanor increased assets under management from $86.9 million to $346.4 million. Coinvestments of $14.0 million were made in new funds under management and Ibis Styles Albany Hotel was purchased for $5.0 million.

The Group strengthened its balance sheet during the year by an institutional placement and security purchase plan that raised $13.2 million net of issue costs.

Elanor is well positioned for growth. Whilst prevailing market conditions for “value” investors are more challenging, the Group's pipeline is encouraging.

Review of financial results

The Group recorded a statutory profit after tax of $2.7 million for the year ended 30 June 2015, after $4.8 million of transaction and establishment costs associated with the establishment and listing of ENN in July 2014.

Core or Distributable earnings were $9.3 million or 13.23 cents per stapled security and 14.07 cents per weighted average stapled security on issue during the year. A Final Distribution of 6.70 cents per stapled security has been declared for the six months ended 30 June 2015 (90% pay-out ratio on Core Earnings). Core Earnings is considered more relevant than statutory profit as it represents an estimate of the underlying recurring cash earnings of the Group, and has been determined in accordance with ASIC Regulatory Guide 230.

Special Situations Investments contains the John Cootes Furniture business and the property associated with John Cootes Furniture business at Merrylands.

During the first half of the year the John Cootes Furniture business experienced some challenges related to the transitioning of the business. In the later part of the year new stores were opened in Bathurst, Campbelltown and Taree. Trading at each of these locations has been promising and they are expected to make a positive contribution to the future performance of the business.

On 27 July 2015 the John Cootes Furniture warehouse in Orchardleigh Street, Yennora sustained major damage as a result of a fire. The entire contents of the building, primarily stock and plant and equipment of the John Cootes Furniture business were destroyed and the building was unable to be recovered. The warehouse building is owned by the John Cootes Diversified Property Syndicate, a managed investment scheme managed by the Group. The property is fully insured, and the required business interruption insurances are also in place. The Group is actively working with the insurers in relation to the claims, however, the financial impact of the fire is yet to be determined. The insurers have provided a progress payment of $2.5 million in respect of the loss of stock, plant & equipment and business interruption. Operationally, the John Cootes Furniture business has obtained temporary warehouse facilities, and significant re-ordering of stock has also occurred.

Substantial work has been carried out in exploring the significant development potential for the Merrylands site. This work is continuing.

Summary and Outlook

The Group's core strategy will remain focussed on growing earnings from the funds management business and actively managing its investment portfolio. The Group has a number of funds management opportunities under consideration, with a particular focus on the real estate and hotels, tourism and leisure sectors. The Group will look to increase income from managed funds, seed new managed funds with Group owned investments, and continue to co-invest with external capital partners.

Risks to the Group in the coming year primarily comprise potential earnings variability associated with general economic and market conditions including inbound tourism and domestic retail spending, the availability of capital for funds management opportunities, and any movement in property valuations. The Group manages these risks through its active asset management approach across its investment portfolio, continuing to focus on broadening the Group's capital partner base, and through the active management of the Group's capital structure.

Based on the current operating performance of the investment portfolio and the pipeline of potential funds management opportunities, the Group anticipates continued growth in Core Earnings in the year ahead.

During the financial year, the Group paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring the Directors of the Group (as named above), the company secretary, and all executive officers of the Company and of any related body corporate against a liability incurred in their capacity as Directors and officers of the Company to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.

The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified or agreed to indemnify an officer of the Company or of any related body corporate against a liability incurred in their capacity as an officer.

DIRECTORS' REPORT TO STAPLED SECURITY HOLDERS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

15. Non audit services

Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor are outlined in Note 5 to the financial statements.

The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services, during the year, by the auditor (or by another person or firm on the auditor’s behalf) is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in Note 5 to the financial statements do not compromise the external auditor’s independence, based on advice received from the Audit Risk and Compliance Committee, for the following reasons:

• all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and

• none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants’ issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Group, acting as advocate for the group or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

16. Fees paid to and interests held in the Trust by the Manager or its associates

The interest in the Trust held by the Manager or its related entities as at 30 June 2015 and fees paid to and expenses reimbursed by its related entities during the financial year are disclosed in Note 29 to the consolidated financial statements.

17. Events occurring after reporting date

On 27 July 2015 the John Cootes Furniture warehouse in Orchardleigh Street, Yennora sustained major damage as a result of a fire. The entire contents of the building, primarily stock and plant and equipment of the John Cootes Furniture business were destroyed and the building was unable to be recovered. The warehouse building is owned by the John Cootes Diversified Property Syndicate, a managed investment scheme managed by the Group. The property is fully insured and appropriate business interruption policies are in place. The Group is actively working with the insurers in relation to the claims, however, the financial impact of the fire is yet to be determined. The insurers have provided a progress payment of $2.5 million in respect of the loss of stock, plant & equipment and business interruption. Operationally, the John Cootes Furniture business has obtained temporary warehouse facilities, and significant re-ordering of stock has also occurred.

Subsequent to 30 June 2015, a distribution of 6.70 cents per stapled security has been declared by the Board of Directors. The total distribution amount of $4.7 million will be paid on or before 11 September 2015 in respect of the half year ended 30 June 2015.

Since the end of the financial year, the Directors of the Manager and the Company are not aware of any other matter or circumstance not otherwise dealt with in this report or the financial report that has significantly or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of the Group's affairs in future financial periods.

18. Likely developments and expected results of operations

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the current known market conditions. The extent of any potential deterioration in either the capital or physical property markets on the future results of the Group is unknown. Such results could include property market valuations, the ability of borrowers, including the Group, to raise or refinance debt, and the cost of such debt and the ability to raise equity.

At the date of this report and to the best of the Directors’ knowledge and belief, there are no other anticipated changes in the operations of the Group which would have a material impact on the future results of the Group.

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

Elanor Investors Group (Group or Consolidated Group) is a 'stapled' entity comprising of Elanor Investment Fund (Trust) and its controlled entities (EIF Group), and Elanor Investors Limited (EIL or Company) and its controlled entities (EIL Group). The units in the Trust are stapled to shares in the Company. The stapled securities cannot be traded or dealt with separately. The stapled securities of the Group are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX: ENN).

The financial year is defined as from 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015, however operations commenced on 11 July 2014 when the Group listed on the ASX.

The significant policies which have been adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2015 are set out below.

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 27 August 2015.

(a) Basis of preparation

As permitted by Class Order 05/642 issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), this report is a combined report that presents the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of both Elanor Investors Group and the Elanor Investment Fund (EIF Group).

The financial report of Elanor Investors Group comprises the consolidated financial report of Elanor Investors Limited and its controlled entities, including Elanor Investment Fund and its controlled entities.

The financial report of the EIF Group comprises the consolidated financial report of Elanor Investment Fund and its controlled entities.

These financial statements are to be read in conjunction with public announcements made by the Group during the reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the ASX Listing Rules.

Historical cost convention

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of investment properties, property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments held at fair value.

Statement of Compliance

The annual financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, the Trust Constitution and Australian Accounting Standards. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS').

For the purposes of preparing the financial statements, the Consolidated Group and the EIF Group are for-profit entities. The financial report is presented in Australian dollars.

Critical accounting judgement and estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards may require the use of certain critical accounting estimates, and management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The critical accounting estimates made include the estimation of the fair value of the Group's assets and assumptions related to deferred tax assets and liabilities, impairment testing of goodwill, Director valuations for some property, plant and equipment and investment properties. Judgement was made in the determination of control with respect to equity accounted investments and subsidiaries. No other key assumptions concerning the future, or other estimates of uncertainty at the reporting date, have a significant risk of causing material adjustments to the financial statements in the next reporting period.

23

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Going concern

Consolidated Group

The Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1,000 as at 30 June 2015. In addition, the Group is in advanced discussions to extend its facility of $8.6m, which matures on 30 September 2015. Please refer to Note 19 for further details. Therefore management has continued to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

EIF Group

The directors of Elanor Funds Management Limited, in its capacity as Responsible Entity of EIF Group, have received a letter of loan subordination from the Company indicating that it confirms its intention to not require repayment of the loan owed by EIF Group of $4.1m to enable EIF Group to continue as a going concern and meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due, for at least 12 months from the date of signing of the Group’s financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015. EIF Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $9.1m as at 30 June 2015. In addition, the Group is in advanced discussions to extend its facility of $8.6m, which matures on 30 September 2015. Please refer to Note 19 for further details.

(b) New accounting standards and interpretations not yet effective

Certain new standards and amendments and interpretations to existing standards have been published that are mandatory for the Group and the EIF Group for accounting periods beginning on or after 30 June 2015, which the Group and the EIF Group have not yet adopted. Based on a review of these standards, the majority of the standards yet to be adopted are not expected to have significant impact on the financial statements of the Group or the EIF Group. The Group's and the EIF Group's assessment of the impact of those new and amended standards and interpretations which may be relavant are set out below:

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers; AASB 2014-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 15; AASB 9 Financial Instruments; AASB 2014-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2014); and AASB 2014-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2014) – Application of AASB 9 (December 2009) and AASB 9 (December 2010).

AASB 15 establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. AASB 15 and AASB 20145 apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. Early application is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015 but before 1 January 2017. The Group is yet to assess its full impact. The Group does not intend to adopt AASB15 before its operative date, which means it would be first applied in the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2018.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification and measurement of financial assets and may affect the Group's accounting for its financial assets. The standard is not applicable until periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 but is available for early adoption. The Group is yet to assess its full impact. The Group does not intend to adopt AASB 9 before its operative date, which means it would be first applied in the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2019.

(c) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated Financial Statements of the Group incorporate the assets and liabilities of Elanor Investors Limited (the Parent) and all of its subsidiaries, including Elanor Investment Fund and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2015. Elanor Investors Limited is the parent entity in relation to the stapling. The results and equity of Elanor Investment Fund (which is not directly owned by Elanor Investors Limited) have been treated and disclosed as a non-controlling interest. Whilst the results and equity of Elanor Investment Fund are disclosed as a non-controlling interest, the stapled security holders of Elanor Investment Fund are the same as the stapled security holders of Elanor Investors Limited.

These Financial Statements also include a separate column representing the Financial Statements of Elanor Investment Fund, incorporating the assets and liabilities of Elanor Investment Fund and all of its subsidiaries, as at 30 June 2015.

24

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. Control is defined as having rights to variable returns from involvement in the investee and having the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

Where an entity began or ceased to be a controlled entity during the reporting period, the assets, liabilities and results are consolidated only from the date control commenced or up to the date control ceased.

In preparing the consolidated Financial Statements, all intra-group transactions and balances, including unrealised profits arising thereon, have been eliminated in full.

(d) Business combination

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value and comprises the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued. Acquisition-related costs are recongnised in profit or loss as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value, except that:

• deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognised and measured in accordance with AASB 112 ‘Income Taxes’ and AASB 119 ‘Employee Benefits’ respectively;

• liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share-based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’ at the acquisition date; and

• assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with AASB 5 ‘Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’ are measured in accordance with that Standard.

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.

Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity's net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the recognised amounts of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value or, when applicable, on the basis specified in another Standard.

Where a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to its acquisition date fair value and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognised in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where such treatment would be appropriate if that interest were disposed of.

If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date.

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(e) Investment in associates and joint ventures

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policy decisions.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

The results and assets and liabilities of associates or joint ventures are incorporated in these financial statements using the equity method of accounting, except when the investment, or a portion thereof, is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance with AASB 5. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised in the statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. When the Group's share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group's interest in that associate or joint venture (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group's net investment in the associate or joint venture), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

The requirements of AASB 139 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with respect to the Group’s investment in an associate or a joint venture. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with AASB 136 'Impairment of Assets' as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognised forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with AASB 136 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

When a company entity transacts with an associate or a joint venture of the Group, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate or joint venture are recognised in the Group's financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate or joint venture that are not related to the Group.

(f) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of Elanor’s activities as described below.

Hotel and wildlife park revenue

Revenue is recognised when goods and services have been provided to the customer and the outcome can be reliably measured. Revenue from sale of food and beverage items is recognised when the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the buyer.

Sale of furniture and other goods

Sales are recognised as revenue only when the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the buyer. This is when the sale becomes unconditional and ownership of a product has passed to the customer, after delivery.

Funds management fee revenue

Funds management fee revenue is recognised on an accruals basis as the services are performed, in accordance with the terms of the relevant contracts. Where fees are subject to meeting certain performance hurdles, they are recognised as income at the point when those conditions have been met.

Rental income from investment properties, received by the EIF Group is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

If not received at balance sheet date, revenue is reflected in the balance sheet as a receivable and carried at its recoverable value.

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Where revenue is received from the sale of properties, it is recognised when the significant risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. This will normally take place on unconditional exchange of contracts except where payment on completion is expected to occur significantly after exchange. For conditional exchanges, sales are recognised when the conditions are satisfied.

(g) Expenses

Expenses are brought to account on an accruals basis.

(h) Finance costs

Finance costs include interest payable on bank overdrafts and short-term and long-term borrowings, payments on derivatives and amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with arrangement of borrowings.

Finance costs are expensed as incurred using the effective interest rate method, except to the extent that they are directly attributable to the acquisition of a qualifying asset. In these circumstances, borrowing costs are capitalised to the cost of the assets until the assets are ready for their intended use or sale.

(i) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets (with the exception of receivables) are recognised net of the amount of GST, to the extent that the GST is recoverable from the taxation authority. Where GST is not recoverable, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition, or as an expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included in the statement of financial position as receivable or payable.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified within operating cash flows.

(j) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, and short term deposits with an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(k) Receivables

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently accounted for at amortised cost. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on a regular basis and bad debts are written off when identified. A specific provision is made for any doubtful debts where objective evidence exists that the receivables will not be recoverable. The amount of the impairment loss is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows.

All receivables with maturities greater than 12 months after reporting date are classified as non-current assets.

(l) Inventories

Inventories are assets held for sale or consumables held in the ordinary course of operations and recognised at the lower of cost or net realisable value.

The cost of the inventory comprises costs of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. A provision is raised when it is believed that the costs incurred will not be recovered on the ultimate sale of the inventory. Cost for all inventories is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

The Group holds certain landholdings that are intended solely for sale, and not for long term appreciation or the derivation of rental income. These landholdings are carried as non-current inventory.

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(m) Investment property

Investment property relates to the land and buildings owned by the EIF Group (being the Elanor Investment Fund and its controlled entities) only, in which rental income is earned from entities within the EIL Group.

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property under construction for such purposes). Investment properties are measured initially at its cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment properties are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

At each reporting date, the carrying values of the investment properties are assessed by the Directors' and where the carrying value differs materially from the Directors' assessment of fair value, an adjustment to the carrying value is recorded as appropriate.

The Directors' assessment of fair value of each investment property takes into account latest independent valuations, with updates taking into account any changes in estimated yield, underlying income and valuations of comparable properties. In determining the fair value, the capitalisation of net income method and/or the discounting of future net cash flows to their present value have been used, which are based upon assumptions and judgements in relation to future rental income, property capitalisation rate or estimated yield and make reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

(n) Property, plant and equipment

Land and Buildings

All owner occupied properties in the Hotel, Tourism & Leisure class are held for use by the Group for the supply of services and are classified as land and buildings and stated at their revalued amounts under the revaluation model, being the fair value at the date of revaluation, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Fair value is the amount for which the land and buildings could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction.

Revaluation increases arising from changes in the fair value of land and buildings are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated within equity, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease for the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss, in which case the increase is credited to profit or loss to the extent of the decrease previously expensed. A decrease in the carrying amount arising on the revaluation of such land and buildings is recognised in profit or loss to the extent that it exceeds the balance, if any, held in the properties revaluation reserve relating to a previous revaluation of that asset.

The land and buildings owned by Wiltex Wholesale are classified as Inventory, other than the proportion of the property which is classified as owner occupied as a result of being used by the John Cootes Furniture business for the supply of services. Owner occupied land and buildings owned by Wiltex Wholesale is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.

Furniture, fittings and equipment

Furniture, fittings and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.

Livestock

Livestock are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the animals. Depreciation on livestock is calculated using the straight-line method, over the useful lives of the assets which range from 5 - 50 years.

28

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Depreciation

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives or, in the case of leasehold improvements and certain leased plant and equipment, the shorter lease term as follows:

Buildings 40 years Computer Equipment 3 - 5 years Vehicles 8 years Furniture, fittings and equipment 3 - 10 years

(o) Intangible assets

Funds management rights

Funds management rights have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of licences over their estimated useful lives of 10 years.

Brands

Brands acquired are carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition less accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of the acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

(p) Impairment of assets

All assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where objective evidence or an indicator of impairment exists, an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount is made. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less cost of disposal and value in use.

(q) Payables

Payables represent liabilities and accrued expenses owing at year end which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Payables are recognised at amortised cost and normal commercial terms and conditions apply to payables.

A distribution and or dividend payable to Securityholders is recognised for the amount of any distribution and or dividend approved on or before reporting date but not paid at reporting date.

All payables with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting date are classified as non current liabilities.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(r) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (where the effect of the time value of money is material).

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

(s) Employee benefits

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits, are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.

Liabilities recognised in respect of long term employee benefits are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows, using a high quality Corporate Bond rate as the discount rate, to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date.

(t) Interest bearing liabilities

Interest bearing liabilities are recognised initially at cost, being the fair value of the consideration received net of transaction costs associated with the borrowing. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest bearing liabilities are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Under the effective interest method, any transaction fees, costs, discounts and premiums directly related to the borrowings are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income over the expected life of the borrowings.

Interest bearing liabilities are classified as current liabilities where the liability has been drawn under a financing facility which expires within 12 months. Amounts drawn under financial facilities which expire after 12 months are classified as non-current.

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(u) Derivative and other financial instruments

The Group enters into derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship.

Hedge accounting

The Group designates its hedging instruments, which include derivatives, as cash flow hedges.

At the inception of the hedge relationship, the entity documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, along with its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Furthermore, at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, the Group documents whether the hedging instrument is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk.

Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of cash flow hedging reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss, and is included in the ‘other gains and losses’ line item.

Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss, in the same line as the recognised hedged item. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the non-financial asset or non-financial liability.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the Group revokes the hedging relationship, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

(v) Security based payments

Equity-settled security-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled security-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity-settled employee benefits reserve.

(w) Income tax

Trust

Under current tax legislation, the Trust is not liable for income tax, provided the Security holders are presently entitled to the taxable income of the Trust including realised capital gains each financial year.

Company and other taxable entities

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax and is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities are part of a tax-consolidated group, formed on 11 July 2014, and are therefore taxed as a single entity, with any deferred tax assets and liabilities of these entities set off in the consolidated financial statements. The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is Elanor Investors Limited.

(x) Contributed equity

Ordinary units and shares are classified as equity and recognised at the fair value of the consideration received. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary securities are recognised directly in equity as a reduction, net of tax, of the proceeds received.

(y) Earnings per stapled security

Basic earnings per stapled security is calculated as profit after tax attributable to Security holders divided by the weighted average number of ordinary stapled securities issued.

Diluted earnings per stapled security is calculated as profit after tax attributable to Security holders adjusted for any profit recognised in the period in relation to dilutive potential stapled securities divided by the weighted average number of stapled securities and dilutive stapled securities.

(z) Segment reporting

Segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. The segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Board of Directors of Elanor Investors Limited and the Responsible Entity.

(aa) Comparatives

The Trust was registered as a managed investment scheme on 21 May 2014 and the Company was incorporated on 1 May 2014. Units in the Trust and shares in the Company were stapled together and listed on the Australian Securities Exchange on 11 July 2014. The Group did not trade prior to 11 July 2014, and therefore there are no comparatives presented for the year ended 30 June 2015.

(ab) Use of estimates and judgement

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

The areas where a higher degree of judgement or complexity arise, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Group's financial statements, are detailed below:

Fair value of Property, Plant and Equipment

Land and Buildings are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income in the statement of comprehensive income. Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset or liability could be exchanged in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

In reaching estimates of fair value, management judgment needs to be exercised. The level of management judgment required in establishing fair value of the land and buildings for which there is no quoted price in an active market is reduced through the use of external valuations.

Fair value of Investment Properties

Land and Buildings are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognised through profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset or liability could be exchanged in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

In reaching estimates of fair value, management judgment needs to be exercised. The level of management judgment required in establishing fair value of the land and buildings for which there is no quoted price in an active market is reduced through the use of external valuations.

Goodwill

Management judgement is required in reviewing and impairment testing goodwill balances carried by the Group, which invloves estimates of key assumption including cash flow projection, growth rates and discount rates.

Deferred Tax Assets

Management judgement is required in reviewing the recoverability of deferred tax assets carried by the Group, which invloves estimates of key assumptions including cash flow projection, growth rates and discount rates.

15. Goodwill and intangible assets (continued)

Management Rights

Management Rights represent the acquisition of funds management rights and associated licences from Moss Capital Pty Limited at IPO for $1.5m. At IPO, the estimated useful life of the acquired funds management rights was 10 years.

Brands

Brands represent the acquisition of the John Cootes Furniture brand upon the acquisition of the John Cootes Furniture business by JCF Management Pty Limited on 11 July 2014.

Impairment test for brands

Brands are allocated to the Group's cash-generating units (CGU's) identified. All of the brands carried at 30 June 2015 are attributable to the Group's investment in the John Cootes Furniture business.

The Directors have deemed there should be no impairment to the carrying value of brand due to the calculated recoverable

amount of the brand being in excess of the carrying value.

The recoverable amount of the brand is based on value in use calculated on a net present value basis.

The period over which management has projected the CGU cash flows is based upon a 10 year operating forecast. The average growth rates used (6%) and royalty rates (1.65%) are consistent with forecasts included in industry reports. The discount rates used (18.25%) are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant CGU.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on the 2016 financial year budget. Cash flows beyond the budget period are extrapolated using the growth rates stated above. The growth rate does not exceed the long term average growth rate for the business in which the CGU operates.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents goodwill acquired by the Group upon the acquisition of the John Cootes Furniture business by JCF Management Pty Limited on 11 July 2014.

Impairment test for goodwill

Goodwill is allocated to the CGU's identified. All of the goodwill carried at 30 June 2015 is attributable to the Group's investment in the John Cootes Furniture business.

The Directors have deemed there should be no impairment to the carrying value of goodwill due to the calculated recoverable amount of the goodwill being in excess of the carrying value.

The recoverable amount of the goodwill is based on value in use calculated on a net present value basis.

The period over which management has projected the CGU cash flows is based upon a 5 year operating forecast. The average growth rates used (6%) are consistent with forecasts included in industry reports. The discount rates used (18.25%) are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant CGU.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on the 2016 financial year budget. Cash flows beyond the budget period are extrapolated using the growth rates stated above. The growth rate does not exceed the long term average growth rate for the business in which the CGU operates.

ELANOR INVESTORS GROUP

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

15. Goodwill and intangible assets (continued)

Sensitivity

Management recognises that the calculation of recoverable amount can vary based on the assumptions used to project or discount cash flows and that changes to key assumptions can result in recoverable amounts falling below carrying amounts. In relation to the CGUs above, the recoverable amounts are well in excess of the carrying amount associated with each segment.

The Directors consider that the growth rates are appropriate, and that there is sufficient headroom such that a change in any of the other key assumptions would not cause the CGUs’ carrying amount to exceed their recoverable amount.

24. Financial risk management

The Group's principal financial instruments comprise cash, receivables, financial assets carried at fair value through profit and loss, interest bearing loans, derivatives, payables and distributions payable.

The Group's activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including interest rate risk and equity price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

This note presents information about the Group's exposure to each of the above risks, the Group's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk and the Group's management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included through these consolidated financial statements.

The Group's Board of Directors (Board) has overall responsilibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework. The Board has established an Audit & Risk Committee (ARC), which is responsible for monitoring the identification and management of key risks to the business. The ARC meets regularly and reports to the Board on its activities.

The Board has established Treasury Guidelines outlining principles for overall risk management and policies covering specific areas, such as mitigating foreign exchange, interest rate and liquidity risks.

The Group's Treasury Guidelines provide a framework for managing the financial risks of the Group with a key philosophy of risk mitigation. Derivatives are exclusively used for hedging purposes, not as trading or other speculative instruments. The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps where possible to hedge certain risk exposures.

The Group uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate risk, ageing analysis for credit risk and cash flow forecasting for liquidity risk.

There have been no other significant changes in the types of financial risks or the Group's risk management program (including methods used to measure the risks).

a) Market risk

Market risk refers to the potential for changes in the value of the Group's financial instruments or revenue streams from changes in market prices. There are various types of market risks to which the Group is exposed incuding those associated with interest rates, currency rates and equity market price.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk refers to the potential fluctuations in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument because of changes in market interest rates.

As at reporting date, the Consolidated Group had the following interest bearing assets and liabilities:

b) Credit risk Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties failed to perform as contracted.

The Group manages credit risk on receivables by performing credit reviews of prospective debtors, obtaining collateral where appropriate and performing detailed reviews on any debtor arrears. Credit risk on derivatives is managed through limiting transactions to investment grade counterparties.

Exposure to credit risk

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:

Where entities have a right of set-off and intend to settle on a net basis under netting arrangements, this set-off has been recognised in the consolidated financial statements on a net basis. Details of the Group's contingent liabilities are disclosed in Note 28.

Trade and other receivables consist of GST, distributions and other receivables. At balance date 38% of the Group's receivables were due from Australian tax authories in respect of GST.

The EIF Group is exposed to credit risk with respect to the letter of loan subordination from the Company (see Note 1(a)), in respect of the Company's non-requirement of the repayment of the loan.

At balance date there were no other significant concentrations of credit risk.

No allowance has been recognised for the GST and distribution receivable from the taxation authorities and related parties respectively. Based on historical experience, there is no evidence of default from these counterparties which would indicate that an allowance was necessary.

The Group did not measure any financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis as at 30 June 2015.

(c) Valuation techniques used to derive Level 2 and Level 3 fair values

Financial Instruments

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is not applicable for the Group or the EIF Group.

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

  • The use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments;

  • The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves; and

All of the resulting fair value estimates of financial instruments are included in level 2. There are no level 3 financial instruments in either the Group or the EIF Group.

Property Assets

The aim of the valuation process is to ensure that assets are held at fair value and that the Group is compliant with applicable Australian Accounting Standards, regulations, and the Trust's Constitution and Compliance Plan.

All properties are required to be internally valued every six months with the exception of those independently valued during that six month period. The internal valuations are performed by utilising the information from a combination of asset plans and forecasting tools perpared by the asset management team. Appropriate capitalisation rate, terminal yield and discount rates based on comparable market evidence and recent external valuation parameters are used to produce a capitalisation based valuation and a discounted cash flow valuation.

The internal valuations are reviewed by the Chief Operating Officer who recommends each property's valuation to the Audit, Risk & Compliance Committee and the Board in accordance with the Group's internal valuation protocol.

The Group's valuation policy requires that each property in the portfolio is valued by an independent valuer at least every three years. In practice, properties may be valued more frequently than every three years primarily where there may have been a material movement in the market and where there is a significant variation betwen the carrying value and the internal valuation.

Independent valuations are performed by independent and external valuers who hold a recognised relevant professional qualification and have specialised expertise in the types of investment properties valued.

25. Fair value measurement (continued)

Valuation technique and inputs

The key inputs used to measure fair values of investment properties are disclosed below along with their sensitivity to an increase or decrease.

The investment properties fair values presented are based on market values, which are derived using the capitalisation and the discounted cashflow methods. The Group's preferred or primary method is the capitalisation method.

Capitalisation method

Capitalisation rate (or cap rate) is an approximation of the ratio between the net operating income produced by an investment property and its fair value. This excludes consideration of costs of acquisition or disposal. The net income is capitalised in perpetuity from the valuation date at an appropriate investment yield. The adopted percentage rate investment yield reflects the capitalisation rate (cap rate) and includes consideration of the property type, location, comparable sales and whether the property is subject to vacant possession (in the case of hotel properties).

Discounted cash flows (DCF)

Under the DCF method, a property's fair value is estimated using explicit assumptions regarding the benefits and liabilities of ownership over the asset's life including an exit or terminal value. The DCF method involves the projection of a series of cash flows on a real property interest. To this projected cash flow series, an appropriate discount rate is applied to establish the present value of the income stream associated with the property. The discount rate is the rate of return used to convert a monetary sum, payable or receivable in the future, into present value. The rate is determined with regards to market evidence and the prior independent valuation.

All property investments are categorised as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between the hierarchies during the period.

The significant unobservable inputs associated with the valuation of the Group's property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Capitalisation Rate Discount Rate
% %
Fair value measurement sensitivity to significant increase in input Decrease Decrease
Fair value measurement sensitivity to significant decrease in input Increase Increase

Sensitivity Analysis

When calculating the income capitalisation approach, the net property income has a strong inter-relationship with the adopted capitalisation rate given the methodology involves assessing the total income receivable from the property and capitalising this in perpetuity to derive a capital value. In theory, an increase in the income and an increase (softening) in the adopted capitalisation rate could potentially offset the impact to the fair value. The same can be said for a decrease in the income and a decrease (tightening) in the adopted capitalisation rate. A directionally opposite change in the income and the adopted capitalisation rate could potentially magnify the impact to the fair value.

When assessing a discounted cash flow, the adopted discount rate and adopted terminal yield have a strong interrelationship in deriving a fair value given the discount rate will determine the rate at which the terminal value is discounted to the present value. The impact on the fair value of an increase (softening) in the adopted discount rate could potentially offset the impact of a decrease (tightening) in the adopted terminal yield. The same can be said for a decrease (tightening) in the adopted discount rate and an increase (softening) in the adopted terminal yield. A directionally similar change in the adopted discount rate and adopted terminal yield could potentially magnify the impact to the fair value.

30. Share-based payments

The Group has short term and long term ownership-based compensation schemes for executives and senior employees.

The Group has implemented an STI scheme (the STI Scheme), based on an annual profit share, which is available to all staff. The STI Scheme is based on a profit share pool, to be calculated each year based on the Group's financial performance for the relevant year.

The purpose of the STI Scheme is to provide an annual bonus arrangement that incentivises and rewards management for achieving annual pre-tax ROE for Securityholders in excess of 10% per annum. The profit share pool is based on 20% of ROE above 10%, 22.5% of the ROE above 15%, 25% of the ROE above 17.5% and 30% of the ROE above 20%. The Scheme provides that 50% of any awards to individuals from the profit share pool be delivered in deferred securities, which vest two years after award, provided that the employee remains with the Group and maintains minimum performance standards.

30. Share-based payments (continued)

The Elanor Investors Group Board monitors the appropriateness of the profit share scheme and any distribution of the profit share pool will be at the Board's discretion, taking into consideration the forecast and actual financial performance and position of the Group

The Group has implemented an LTI scheme (the LTI Scheme), based on an executive loan security plan and an executive options plan.

Under the executive loan security plan awards (comprising the loan of funds to eligible Elanor employees to acquire Securities which are subject to vesting conditions) have been issued to certain employees. Awards totalling 6.4 million Securities have been made.

The limited recourse loan provided by the Group under the loan security plan carries interest of an amount equal to any cash dividend or distribution but not including any dividend or distribution of capital, or an abnormal distribution.

In addition to the loan security plan, the Group has implemented an executive option plan comprising rights to acquire Securities at a specified exercise price, subject to the achievement of vesting conditions, which may be offered to certain eligible employees (including the Chief Executive Officer, direct reports to the Chief Executive Officer and other selected key executives) as determined by the Board. Options have been issued to the Chief Executive Officer only, over 1.6 million Securities.

The purpose of the LTI Scheme is to assist in attracting, motivating and retaining key management and employees. The LTI Scheme operates by providing key management and employees with the opportunity to participate in the future performance of Group Securities. The vesting conditions for the LTI plans and related awards include both a service based hurdle and an absolute total security holder return (TSR) performance hurdle. The service based hurdle is 3 years in the case of both plans. The TSR is 10% per annum in the case of the loan security plan and 15% per annum in the case of the options plan. The option plan has an exercise price of $1.80 per security (44% premium to the $1.25 offer price at the time of the IPO).

TSR was selected as the LTI performance measure to ensure an alignment between the Securityholder return and reward for executives.

The following share-based payment arrangements were in existence during the current reporting period:

Employee Loan Securities

Award Type Number Granted Grant Date Vesting Date Conditions1 at Grant Date Date

  1. Services and non-market conditions include financial and non-financial targets along with a deferred vesting period

  2. Fair Value of Options granted is calculated at the grant date using a binomial pricing model

The Group recognises the fair value at the grant date of equity settled securities above as an employee benefit expense proportionally over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in equity. Fair value of options is measured at grant date using a Monte-Carlo Simulation and Binomial option pricing model, performed by an independent valuer, and models the future price of the Group's stapled securities.

30. Share-based payments (continued)

The total expense recognised during the year in relation to the Group's equity settled share-based payments was $260,000.

Key inputs to the pricing models include:

Volatility 25%
Dividend Yield 9%

31. Events occurring after reporting date

Subsequent to the period end, a distribution of 6.70 cents per stapled security has been declared by the Board of Directors. The total distribution amount of $4.7m will be paid on or before 11 September 2015 in respect of the year ended 30 June 2015.

On 27 July 2015 the John Cootes Furniture warehouse in Orchardleigh Street, Yennora sustained major damage as a result of a fire. The entire contents of the building, primarily stock and plant and equipment of the John Cootes Furniture business was destroyed and the building was unable to be recovered. The warehouse building is owned by the John Cootes Diversified Property Syndicate, a managed investment scheme managed by the Group. The property is fully insured, and the required business interruption insurances are also in place. The Group is actively working with the insurers in relation to the claims, however, the financial impact of the fire is yet to be determined. The insurers have provided a progress payment of $2.5m in respect of the loss of stock, plant and equipment and business interruption. Operationally, the John Cootes Furniture business has obtained temporary warehouse facilities which is both receiving stock and delivering that stock to our customers. Significant re-ordering of stock has also occurred.

Other than the event disclosed above, the directors are not aware of any other matter or circumstance not otherwise dealt with in the financial reports or the Directors' Report that has significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Group in financial period subsequent to the year ended 30 June 2015.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control, relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view, in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
