RESULTS - PORTFOLIO
During 2018, the Company acquired 26,420 ML of permanent water entitlements and sold 2,070 ML which resulted in a profit on disposal of water entitlements of $1.9m and a portfolio turnover of 3%.
Since December, a further ~8,000 ML of
entitlement has been acquired, bringing the total volume owned and managed to 69.1GL at 30 April 2019. The total portfolio of water assets is valued at $239.4 million at 30 April 2019.
The water portfolio is independently valued, monthly, by Aither. The Company then make the necessary accounting adjustments to arrive at the NAV of $1.50/share at 30 April 2019.

~~A~~ NNUAL GENERAL MEETING
RESULTS - PORTFOLIO
The team are actively managing the composition of the Company’s water portfolio and take a targeted approach to acquisitions and portfolio rebalancing. This ensures the portfolio remains diversified and retains the ability to position itself ahead of any systematic trends or expected seasonal conditions.
The portfolio is diversified in terms of regional exposure, entitlement class (high security or general security), and water source (surface or groundwater).
The graphs below show the portfolio composition at 30 April 2019, and at the last two financial year ends:

Duxton Water owns and manages a portfolio of water assets

-
Water entitlements being the perpetual right to the resource. Entitlements receive annual allocations, to varying degrees, and at different times throughout the water year (1 July to 30 June), dependent on the individual entitlement’s unique characteristics.
-
Water allocations are the annual allocation of usable water to the water entitlement. The volume of allocation varies year-on-year largely due to climatic conditions, storage levels, in-flows, and rainfall forecasts. As such, the price of allocation varies significantly throughout the water year, and yearon-year.
Duxton Water uses it’s portfolio of water entitlements to generate revenue through leases, sale of allocation, and forward contracts.
-
Leases provide Duxton Water with a reliable, visible income stream and are an increasingly attractive long-term solution for irrigators. Leases ultimately pass through all allocations and water security that ownership of the entitlement offers, albeit in a capital light approach as it frees up capital that would otherwise be tied up in the irrigators’ balance sheet. We will continue to grow the leased portion of the portfolio over time as the demand for these products increase.
-
Unleased entitlements receive their allocation, which is then traded back into the spot market through sales and forward contracts.

----- End of picture text -----
While the absolute volume of leased entitlements has increased, with the Company having entered into new agreements in 2018, the leased percentage has decreased as a result of continued acquisition of entitlements. The leased percentage of the portfolio has declined to 39% as at 31 December 2018 (31 December 2017: 62% leased). This has allowed the Company to maximise revenues as the allocations received on the unleased entitlements have been available to sell in the spot market. In 2018, spot market prices moved from ~$120/ML to ~$350/ML. In January 2019 they peaked at ~$600/ML to ~$700/ML.
The Weighted Average Lease Length of the portfolio at 31 December 2018 was 4.54 years. The target remains to earn 6-7% return on long term leases and to have 70-80% of the portfolio leased. By 1 July 2019, Duxton estimates ~50-60% of the portfolio will be leased.
There has been a shift in irrigator demand observed in the market, from a reliance on the spot market (allocation purchases) towards longer-term supply solutions such as forward contracts and leases. Duxton Water is in a position through its diversified portfolio, to continue entering into new leases.

~~Portfolio Manager’s Update~~
~~A~~ NNUAL GENERAL MEETING
RESULTS - MARKET
Australia has a variable climate and as such there can be significant volatility in water allocations and prices over time. Outside of climate and allocation supply, the key drivers to the price of allocation are the reduction in overall supply due to the Government’s buyback program, increase in efficiency (irrigators can do more with less water), and the shift in commodity production to higher margin crops.
==> picture [594 x 299] intentionally omitted <==
• In 2018, the Murray Darling Basin recorded its seventh lowest annual rainfall. Rainfall as a whole was exceptionally low across Australia, with much of the area experiencing rainfall totals in the lowest 10% of records. Severe rainfall deficiencies are continuing to affect large areas throughout southern and eastern Australia and throughout the Murray Darling Basin, as seen in the rainfall decile chart.
- Allocation prices now are ~$550-600/ML and forward contracts are ~$650/ML, representative of ongoing demand from irrigators and the understanding that dry conditions should continue into the 2019/2020 water year.
13
~~Portfolio Manager’s Update~~
~~A~~ NNUAL GENERAL MEETING
RESULTS - MARKET
==> picture [523 x 393] intentionally omitted <==
- These hot and dry conditions are reflected in the ~2,900GL of total Murray-Darling system inflows for 2018, which is significantly lower than the 10-year average of ~7,400GL. These poor inflows compounded the low level of inflows received in 2017, resulting in lower levels of active storage within the catchments and ultimately fewer allocations to be distributed amongst entitlement holders.
• Storages are low and major rainfall deficiencies in the 2017-18 and 2018-19 water years have reduced subsoil moisture. To reset the system, there would need to be a significant resetting or “wet” event, as there was in the 2016-2017 water year (see blue line on graph).
- The Bureau of Meteorology’s (“BoM”) recent outlook forecast a 60-80% chance of below average rainfall in May. The El Nino outlook remains at “Alert”. An El Nino typically results in below average rainfall and above average temperature across eastern Australia.

STRATEGY
SHORT TERM
-
Short and medium term weather forecasts are indicative of continued dry weather for the region of focus
-
Opening allocation volumes are expected to be low, reflective of limited in-flows and depleted storages
-
Further allocation announcements will be made through the 2019/2020 water year as resource availability improves
-
The portfolio is expected to continue to grow through both acquisition and value uplift over the next 12 months
-
Further diversification should be achieved through acquisition of entitlements outside the SMDB region
-
By 1 July 2019, ~50-60% of the portfolio should be leased
-
Most new leases start on 1 July
-
Irrigators are shifting their focus from relying on the spot market, to securing longer-term water supply solutions (through entitlement acquisition, leases and forward contracts)
LONG TERM
-
There is a cap on any further issuance of entitlements to irrigators or for consumptive use
-
We are seeing increasing commitment by Government to recover the further 450GL, which is expected to be achieved by 2024 through direct buy-back, or efficiency gains
-
Both major parties have shown continued support of the market-based approach. Therefore we believe there is a low sovereign risk in terms of any significant change to the market systems in place
-
Irrigators continue to plant higher-margin annual crops that are less price-sensitive (like Cotton). Annual growers have flexibility to scale production up and down according to the available resource; we expect to see less annual production in 2019/20 water year due to lower water availability
-
There continues to be significant further permanent crop development in the SMDB region; these crops are also pricecompetitive and have a fixed trajectory of inelastic demand for the resource
