Overview
IOOF's Proposal to acquire The Trust Company
==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
-
IOOF has submitted a proposal to acquire The Trust Company (“Trust”)
-
Under the IOOF Proposal, shareholders in Trust will receive their choice of either:
-
0.74 IOOF shares per Trust share, or
-
a Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration
-
A Special Dividend of $0.22 per Trust share (expected to be fully franked) will also be paid to Trust shareholders
-
The Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration will be $6.03 per Trust share, or the cash equivalent value of 0.74 IOOF shares per Trust share, whichever is the higher. The Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration will be subject to a maximum cap of $100m of total cash to be paid by IOOF and will be scaled back to the extent that demand for the Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration exceeds $100m
-
IOOF will also encourage the Board of Trust to declare to Trust shareholders in October 2013 an Interim Dividend of up to $0.17 per Trust Share. Payment of an Interim Dividend by Trust is not permitted under the offer for Trust by Perpetual Limited (“Perpetual Offer”)
Comparison of IOOF Proposal and Perpetual Offer
| Based on volume weighted average price over a 1 month period | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Share | Guaranteed Minimum | |||||
| Consideration | Cash Consideration | Perpetual Offer | ||||
| Share Consideration | $6.34 | $6.03 | or better | $5.84 | ||
| Special dividend | $0.22 | $0.22 | $0.22 | |||
| Consideration value | $6.56 | $6.25 | or better | $6.06 | ||
| Trust Interim Dividend | up to | $0.17 |
up to | $0.17 |
- | |
| Value per Trust share | $6.73 | $6.42 | or better | $6.06 |
Note: VWAP = volume weighted average price. 0.74 IOOF shares based on the 1 month VWAP of $8.57 as at 30 August 2013 equals $6.34. The IOOF Share Consideration will be calculated with reference to the exchange ratio of 0.74 IOOF shares for each Trust share and the volume weighted average price per IOOF share over the five trading days following the date the Scheme becomes effective. IOOF has declared a dividend of $0.225 for which the record date is 24 September 2013. The IOOF Proposal will not be concluded prior to 24 September 2013, hence Trust shareholders will not receive this dividend. “Perpetual Offer” reflects the exchange ratio of 0.1495 Perpetual shares and a special dividend of $0.22 per share as contained in the Scheme Implementation Agreement signed by Perpetual Limited and 3 Trust on 7 May 2013 and Perpetual 1 month VWAP of $39.08 as at 30 August 2013.
The IOOF Proposal contains a Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration alternative
==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
-
Trust shareholders who choose the cash alternative will receive the higher of:
-
the cash equivalent value of 0.74 IOOF shares; or
-
cash of $6.03
plus a $0.22 Special Dividend, expected to be fully franked
plus, for Trust shareholders on the register at the relevant record date, a Trust Interim Dividend of up to $0.17
-
The Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration is subject to a maximum total of $100 million after which there will be a proportional
-
cash scale back and Trust shareholders will receive the balance of their consideration in IOOF Share Consideration
-
The maximum cash component of up to $100 million available to electing Trust shareholders will be funded through existing and (if required) new IOOF cash and bank debt facilities
-
Allows Trust shareholders to participate in any upside from the movement in IOOF’s share price but places an effective “floor” on
-
the minimum cash amount per share ($6.25) that a shareholder can receive (with the Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration
subject to scale back)
Note: The cash equivalent value of 0.74 IOOF shares will be calculated by reference to the IOOF volume weighted average price over the five trading days after the date the Scheme becomes effective.

==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
The IOOF Proposal is superior to the current Perpetual Offer
The IOOF Proposal is superior to the Perpetual Offer:
-
Higher price per Trust share (IOOF share consideration currently equivalent to $6.56 per share which includes a Special Dividend of $0.22)
-
Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration alternative equivalent to no less than $6.25 per share including the Special Dividend. Shareholders electing cash can also receive the upside from a positive movement in IOOF’s share price
-
The IOOF Proposal is not conditional on ACCC approval
-
Allows Trust to declare an Interim Dividend in October of up to $0.17 per share for those Trust shareholders on the register at the relevant record date
-
Substantially higher available total available cash pool of $100m compared with $60m under the Perpetual Offer

Key highlights of the IOOF Proposal
==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
-
Materially exceeds the Perpetual Offer
-
Recognises the value of Trust with an offer in excess of the Independent Expert’s range
-
Lower conditionality as the IOOF Proposal is not subject to ACCC approval
-
Acceptance of the IOOF Proposal would enhance the position of the combined company as the second largest trustee corporation in Australia and is expected to deliver significant value to both Trust and IOOF shareholders
-
Creates an opportunity for Trust shareholders to own shares in a leading independent financial services company with diversified
earnings, increased scale and liquidity and a strong track record of delivering significant shareholder returns
- Consistent with IOOF’s stated strategy of growth through value accretive acquisitions
6
Benefits to Trust shareholders
7
The IOOF Proposal is value enhancing for Trust shareholders
==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
A significant premium to the Trust share price
-
Total value of $6.73 (includes IOOF Share Consideration plus Special Dividend plus Trust Interim Dividend), represents a premium of 41.7% to the Trust closing share price on 20 February 2013, the last unaffected share price before Equity Trustees Limited announced its intention to make a takeover offer for Trust
-
Trust shareholders who are able to capture the benefit of any franking credits attached to the $0.22 Special Dividend and Interim Dividend will realise additional value
Value in excess of Independent Expert’s range
- Total value of $6.73 exceeds the value of Trust shares of $6.03 - $6.29 as assessed by the Independent Expert Lonergan Edwards & Associates appointed by the Board of Trust in connection with the takeover from Equity Trustees Limited, partly because synergies from the IOOF Proposal are anticipated to be at least $14 million per annum pre-tax
Opportunity to become a shareholder in a leading independent financial services company
-
Strong track record of delivering superior shareholder returns
-
Highly liquid shares with a 12 month annual market turnover of ~76%
-
Consistent payments of fully franked dividends with a target payout ratio of 60-90% of underlying earnings
-
IOOF is currently included within the ASX Top 100 listed companies by market capitalisation and accordingly IOOF shares are expected to be included within the S&P/ASX 100 Index in the coming weeks which it is anticipated will enhance investor demand for IOOF shares
Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration provides greater certainty
-
Including the Special Dividend and Trust Interim Dividend, shareholders can receive a minimum of $6.42 in cash
-
If the IOOF share price increases, Trust shareholders will receive more cash under the cash alternative
Low conditionality
- Due diligence on Trust was completed by IOOF in May 2013 so the IOOF Proposal is not conditional on due diligence. The IOOF Proposal also does not contain a condition precedent requiring ACCC approval
IOOF has a strong fiduciary heritage with a highly complementary business through Australian Executor Trustees
- The transaction will provide Trust clients with access to a larger Trustee business and a broader range of wealth management products and services
Note: Referenced to Trust’s closing share price on 20 February 2013 of $4.75, the date of the last unaffected trading in Trust shares prior to the announcement by Equity Trustees Limited of a takeover offer for Trust. Annual turnover of IOOF shares calculated based on market volume and average shares outstanding over a 12 month period from 31 August 2012 – 30 August 2013.

The Trustee business is an attractive business and furthers IOOF's strategy
==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
The IOOF Proposal supports IOOF’s aim of being the true independent participant in the Australian financial services industry
-
The combined business will be able to leverage opportunities provided by improved scale
-
The combined business will be well positioned to capitalise on future growth, driven by
-
Growth in superannuation assets
-
Growth in demand in new segments (e.g. native title trusts; compensation and related disability trusts)
-
Increased complexity of compliance requirements and Government regulation
-
Growing need of debt and securitisation issuance
-
Increasing Asian capital markets flows and global infrastructure investment into Australia
-
The ageing of the Australian population
-
IOOF has its own trustee corporation subsidiary which is one of IOOF’s four integrated businesses
-
The acquisition of Trust builds on IOOF’s integrated business model and strategy to grow through strategically attractive and value accretive acquisitions
-
IOOF has a strong track record of successfully integrating acquired business and extracting optimal synergies
20
Next steps and conclusion
21
The Board of Trust is reviewing the two proposals
==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
-
The Board of Trust has advised IOOF that it will consider the IOOF Proposal as soon as possible. If the Board concludes that the IOOF Proposal is superior, it must give Perpetual 3 business days to match or exceed the terms of the IOOF Proposal
-
This protocol was agreed in Trust’s Scheme Implementation Agreement with Perpetual. After this notice period, the Board of Trust will be free to accept the terms of the IOOF Proposal, should they choose to do so
-
IOOF believes that to match its Proposal would require Perpetual, amongst other things, to remove the ACCC condition precedent in its Offer so that Perpetual itself takes the risk that the ACCC may require it to sell the Trust business, or parts thereof, later if the ACCC blocks the deal, thus moving the ACCC risk from Trust shareholders to Perpetual shareholders
-
The IOOF Proposal will remain open for acceptance by the Trust Board of Directors until 9:00 am on Saturday 7 September 2013
-
IOOF has proposed to Trust a Scheme Implementation Agreement which is virtually identical to the Perpetual Agreement
-
The differences reflect higher price and greater certainty
-
There is no need for due diligence because IOOF has already completed extensive due diligence on Trust and Trust has also concluded its due diligence review of IOOF
-
To accept the IOOF Proposal, Trust needs simply to sign the IOOF Scheme Implementation Agreement and announce to the ASX that the Trust Directors unanimously recommend the IOOF Proposal, in the absence of a superior proposal
22
Conclusion
==> picture [109 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
The IOOF Proposal is attractive to both Trust and IOOF shareholders
-
The offer is in excess of Trust Independent Expert’s valuation range
-
The IOOF Proposal is superior to the Perpetual Offer
-
Higher price
-
Guaranteed Minimum Cash Consideration, with upside if the IOOF share price increases
-
No ACCC condition precedent
-
Allows Trust to declare an Interim Dividend of up to $0.17 per share
-
Higher total available cash amount
-
Creates an opportunity for Trust shareholders to own shares in a leading independent financial services company:
-
Diversified earnings, increased scale and liquidity
-
Strong track record of delivering significant shareholder returns
The IOOF Proposal is consistent with IOOF's strategy and value accretive
- Enhances the position of the combined company as the second largest trustee corporation in Australia
