The primary investment objective of Duxton Water (“the Company”) is to build a portfolio of permanent water entitlements and utilise this portfolio to provide flexible water supply solutions to our Australian farming partners. The Company generates a return by offering Irrigators a range of supply solutions including long-term entitlement leases, forward allocation contracts and spot allocation supply.

NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE

Duxton Water’s NAV at 30 November 2020 was $1.61 per share.

The after-tax NAV figure takes into account the provision for deferred tax on set-up costs and estimates of net tax provisions that may arise should the entire portfolio be disposed of on the above date. The Company does not expect to trigger these tax provisions through the turnover of these assets and expects to maintain its low entitlement turnover ratio. The NAV excluding tax provisions for unrealised capital gain is $1.79. The Company’s NAV is primarily the fair value of its water asset portfolio at the stated date. The Company uses an independent Fair Market Unit Value for entitlement and allocations provided by Aither Pty Ltd (‘Aither”) to undertake the NAV assessment.

INVESTMENT UPDATE

At 30 November 2020, Duxton Water is invested in approximately $320 million of water assets, with the remainder of the portfolio held in cash and net current assets. Having taken the opportunity in previous months to rebalance a portion of the portfolio, the Company continues to redeploy capital as opportunities present themselves. The Company has approximately 338ML ($1.61 million) of water entitlements in its acquisition pipeline at 30 November 2020.

The 20/21 water year has seen lower levels of trading activity, as Irrigators wait for forecast wetter conditions to eventuate. That being said, warmer November conditions have increased demand for the available resource due to the arrival of summer (peak irrigation period) and lower than expected rainfall occurring.

After a number of years of below average rainfall and inflows, continued draw down on water storages within the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) put significant pressure on the available water supply.

ENTITLEMENT MARKET

Prior to entering the 20/21 water year, on 1 July 2020, many Irrigators took advantage of water supply products such as leases and forward allocation contracts to assist with managing upcoming annual water requirements. As Australia enters its summer period, many Irrigators have or are in the process of finalising and planting their summer cropping programs. With increased water resource availability, annual summer crop plantings are expected to be significantly higher than in the 19/20 water year.

Duxton Water is engaged in building a targeted portfolio of water entitlements predominantly across the southern MDB. The Company has invested in both surface and ground water assets. At 30 November 2020, the Company holds approximately 81,634ML of water entitlements across 19 different asset types and classes. Recently the Company has continued to build on opportunities within the high security entitlement market in the New South Wales Murrumbidgee, South Australian Murray and some smaller acquisitions of South Australian Mallee ground water.

Since May 2020, entitlement prices fluctuations have been relatively Wales Murrumbidgee, South Australian Murray and some smaller stable.

Storage levels are currently being impacted as the summer (peak draw down period) approaches. The Murray-Goulburn system is currently 61% at capacity; 21.3% higher than 12 months ago. Northern basin storage levels are currently 26%, 18% higher than 12 months ago.

The Company uses an independent Fair Market Unit Value for allocations and dry entitlements (without allocation) provided by Aither to undertake the NAV assessment.

Duxton Water continues to support its Irrigator partners as they enter the peak water requirements period for the 20/21 water year. This involves the provision of leases to over 70 family farming and corporate businesses. Through June 2020, many Irrigators took advantage of seasonally low allocation pricing and acquired allocation to carry-over into the new water year. The Company has further supported Irrigator water risk management through the provision of forward allocation contracts for the 20/21 water year. This provides Irrigators with visibility to water supply and assists Duxton Water in hedging its allocation risk on its unleased permanent water assets.

ALLOCATION MARKET

As Irrigators enter the summer months and the peak irrigation season, increased demand for the available resource has driven prices higher. Storages have reached peak supply and are now being drawn down in order to meet downstream requirements.

The closure of trading limits from the upper Murray, Goulburn and Murrumbidgee has seen price fragmentation from the lower Murray. Through November, lower Murray water prices traded between $225-$230/ML, up on October prices of $180-$200/ML. Prices in the upper Murray, Goulburn and Murrumbidgee at the end of November range from $110-$160/ML.

LEASES

The leased portion of the water entitlement portfolio is ~64% which represents ~76% of the Company ’s high security entitlement holding.

The current weighted average lease expiry (WALE) remains at 2.3 years. Inclusive of renewal options, this pushes the WALE to 4.6

years. The Company continues to work towards its long-term goal of having 70-80% of the portfolio under lease.

DIVIDENDS

The Company paid a fully franked dividend of 2.9 cents on 30 October 2020, with 222k shares issued under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan at a VWAP of $1.3401/Share.

The Board maintains its commitment to providing shareholders with a bi-annual dividend franked to the maximum extent possible. With the Company’s high percentage of leased entitlements, the Directors reaffirm its target for the next four dividends.

The Company has targeted fully franked payments of:

• 3.0 cents ($0.030) as the final 2020 dividend;

• 3.1 cents ($0.031) as the interim 2021 dividend;

• 3.2 cents ($0.032) as the final 2021 dividend; and

• 3.3 cents ($0.033) as the interim 2022 dividend.

The dividend targets are to be paid in the following reporting periods.

MARKET UPDATE & OUTLOOK

The La Nina event in the Pacific Ocean is now well established. La Nina typically means above average rainfalls over the summer months for much of eastern Australia.

It should however be noted that for the southern parts of Australia and particularly the southern MDB, summer is not typically a high rainfall period and requires only small increases of received precipitation to breach the average rainfall thresholds.

The BOM have made commentary in recent outlooks that: " While the outlooks indicate wetter than average conditions, southern parts of Australia are entering into their drier season, so rainfall is not likely to be sufficient to relieve long-term rainfall deficits. "

Rainfall for the MDB for November was 60% below the long-term average and we continue to see draw downs of major storages ahead of summer. Summer daytime temperatures are expected to be warmer than average for parts of south east Australia, resulting in further irrigation demand over summer.

In the northern and southern MDB, storages are now at 27% and 61%, compared to 9% and 40% this time last year.

ACCC

On 30 July 2020, the ACCC released the interim report into the Southern Murray Darling Basin Water Market.

The ACCC has spent almost a year reviewing the markets operation and engaging with key stakeholders. The Commission has had an ongoing role in monitoring the Australian Water Markets, having issued reports on its operation since 2012. It is the Company's view that the interim report was thorough and well-balanced.

We note the ACCC has stated that:

“Water trading has brought substantial benefits to water users across the Basin. Water markets allow Irrigators to increase their water supplies, to earn income by selling their water rights when they are more valuable to someone else, to expand production, or to release capital for investment in their businesses. The benefit of water markets is demonstrated by the fact that, despite tough and volatile climatic conditions, the value of production from irrigated agriculture in the Southern Basin has trended upwards in real terms since 2010-11.”

“Water investors, meanwhile, can help Irrigators free up capital by buying and leasing out water; they can increase water market liquidity; and they can help Irrigators manage water-supply risks, by providing water products such as leases and forward contracts.”

We note the report has identified opportunities to improve governance, regulatory and operational frameworks that support Australian water markets. We believe that a focus in these areas will benefit all stakeholders and Duxton will actively engage in that process.

The Company uses an independent Fair Market Unit Value for entitlement and allocation provided by Aither Pty Ltd (‘Aither”) to undertake the NAV assessment. Aither’s definition of fair market value is consistent with the principles of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) 13 Fair Value Measurement. It is a non IFRS measure that is not reviewed or audited by the Company’s auditor. Further information can be found at www.duxtonwater.com.au
