NOTES:

  • (1) Net Asset Backing per share is based on Keybridge’s total listed shares on issue and excludes unlisted shares issued under the Company’s Executive Share Plan (for further details, refer KBC’s Notice of AGM released on ASX on 30 October 2014 and KBC’s ASX announcement dated 19 December 2014: Appendix 3B and Further Detail Regarding Issuance of Loan Funded Shares).

  • (2) Investment in Associated entity : Keybridge’s investment in HHY Fund (ASX:HHY), an Associated Entity (i.e. an entity in which the Company has a greater than 20% interest and is considered to have ‘significant influence’ over), is accounted for under the equity method in the consolidated financial statements. Under the equity method, the carrying amount of such investment is cost plus a share of the Associate Entity’s net profit or loss (after tax) as provided to the Company by such Associated Entity (refer Note 3a(iv) (Significant Accounting Policies - Basis of Consolidation - Investments in equity-accounted investees) at page 37 of the Company’s 2016 Annual Report). The Directors have determined that where HHY’s net tangible asset ( NTA ) backing is lower than the value calculated under the equity method as at month end, the lower NTA backing value will be adopted as the carrying value instead.

As at month end, Keybridge’s 22,646,973 units (26.46% interest) (31 May 2017: 22,646,973 units and 26.46%) in HHY have a carrying value of $0.1141 per unit ($2.584m) based on HHY’s NTA backing as at month end (31 May 2017: $0.118 per unit ($2.698m) based on the equity method); this compares with HHY’s last bid price on ASX of $0.10 per unit ($2.265m) (31 May 2017: $0.10 per unit ($2.265m) and a value determined under the equity method of $0.115 per unit ($2.603m), at month end.

  • (3) Loan Receivables - Private Equity : Keybridge holds a US$4.3m a limited recourse promissory note issued by RPE I Investor LLC ( RPE Investor ) (a subsidiary of Republic Financial Corporation ( RPC ), a US private investment company) secured (via collateral pledged) over RPE Investor’s ~53.5% (Limited Partners’) interest in the Republic Private Equity I Limited Liability Limited Partnership, a private equity fund (managed by a related party to RPC) with investments in two active US based manufacturing/distribution businesses ( RPE Fund ). The principal and accrued interest (at 14.5% pa) under the note is repayable on maturity on 29 December 2017 (which is subject to extension/re-finance by mutual agreement of the parties). As at month end, the loan was carried at Directors’ valuation (net of impairments) of US$4.04m (A$5.25m) (31 May 2017: US$5.01m (A$6.72m)).

(4) Loan Receivables – Infrastructure : In 2007/2008, Keybridge financed the development and construction of the Totana 1.05MWp Solar Photovoltaic Park in the Murcia region in southern Spain. Under Spanish Royal Decree, Spanish energy supplier, Iberdrola, (which has a 25 year (plus two 5 year extensions) purchase off-take arrangement) is required to purchase all electricity produced by Totana at Government mandated feed-in tariff prices plus (since July 2013 under Royal Decree) additional compensation payments (which are intended to provide a reasonable return on operations and capital invested for renewable energy sources and is subject to review every 3 years). The loan (which currently accrues interest at 7.25% pa) is repayable on maturity on or about December 2038. During the financial year to month end, Keybridge received €0.215m (A$0.319m) in cash loan repayments. As at month end, the loan was carried at Directors’ valuation (net of impairments) of €4.33m (A$6.43m) (31 May 2017: €4.3m (A$6.45m)). (5) Loan Receivables – Insurance : Keybridge has invested NZ$3.8m (A$3.4m) (via NZ$0.109m (10.13%) equity and NZ$3.691m notes) into Foundation Life, to finance Foundation’s acquisition of Tower Limited’s life insurance business in New Zealand in 2014. Interest of 9% pa is payable under the note, which is redeemable by noteholders in 10 years (May 2024) or by Foundation (from time to time). During the financial year to month end, Keybridge received NZ$0.289m (A$0.275m) interest and NZ$24k (A$23k) redemption proceeds from Foundation. As at month end, the loan balance is NZ$3.41m (A$3.25m) (31 May 2017: NZ$3.39m and A$3.22m) and Keybridge retains its 10.13% equity interest in Foundation Life, which the Directors have determined to reinstate the carrying value to cost of NZ$109m (A$0.103m). (6) Loan Receivables – Property : Keybridge has registered mortgages over strata title lots comprising Conference Facilities at a Hotel located in a beachside suburb in north Sydney as security for loans to private companies (which are in liquidation). As at month end, the loan was carried at Directors’ valuation (net of impairments) of A$0.885m (31 May 2017: A$0.885m) – this was based on an independent valuation received in respect of the lots in May 2016. Keybridge has also fully impaired a loan of $3.304m (in 2012/13) in respect of a multi-staged residential development in Sydney where Keybridge is (indirectly) the sole holder in unit trusts where the corporate trustees are in liquidation.

(7) Loan Receivables – Other : Includes $0.42m (31 May 2017: $0.41m) accrued interest receivable in respect of Executive Share Plan ( ESP ) loans attributable to former Directors.

The notes have a face value of $1.00, pays interest at 7% pa and matures on 31 July 2020 (unless redeemed or bought-back by Keybridge earlier). Interest distributions are generally payable quarterly and have a franking credit component under Australian taxation law. Further details are contained in the Prospectus dated 17 June 2015. As at month end, 4,401,047 notes are on issue (31 May 2017: 4,401,047 notes).
