SECTION 4- COMPANY BACKGROUND
Money3 was established in November 2005 and was subsequently listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in October 2006. Money3 is a finance company focused on delivering both secured and unsecured financial solutions to consumers. The secured business provides vehicle finance from $2,000 to $35,000. The unsecured lending business focuses on shorter term loans between $100 and $5,000, including via its on-line business, Cash Train.
Revenue is generated from fees and charges including loan application fees, interest charges, credit fees, account keeping fees and cheque cashing fees. As announced on 18 November 2015, Money3 proposes to exit unsecured lending by 30 June 2016.
As a responsible lender, Money3 has been at the forefront of the transformation of the consumer lending industry in Australia, working with government to develop legislation that protects the most vulnerable and assists the 2.65 million Australians who are financially excluded.
Money3 has a market share of around 10% to 15% of the unsecured lending market and approximately 1% of the secured market. Money3 looks forward to continued growth opportunities ahead.
SECTION 5 - ELIGIBILITY AND ALLOTMENT POLICIES
5.1 Eligible Shareholders
Entitlement to participate in the Rights Issue is determined as at the Record Date. Only Shareholders with registered addresses in Australia or New Zealand are eligible to participate.
Eligible Shareholders wishing to accept their entitlement in part or in full should refer to Section 7 of this Offer Document for full instructions.
There is no obligation on Shareholders to participate in the Rights Issue.
5.2 Ineligible Shareholders
In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.7, Shareholders with registered addresses outside Australia or New Zealand at the Record Date are not eligible to participate in the Rights Issue as Money3 believes that it is unreasonable to make the Rights Issue to these Shareholders having regard to the small number of such Shareholders, the small number and value of New Shares that would be offered to them and the cost of complying with the securities legislation in those foreign jurisdictions. Accordingly, the New Shares to which any ineligible Shareholders would be entitled will form part of the Shortfall.

Holding statements will set out the number of New Shares allotted under the Offer Document and provide details of a Shareholder's Holder Identification Number (for CHESS) or Shareholder Reference Number (for issuer sponsored Shareholders). It is the responsibility of Shareholders to confirm the number of New Shares allotted to them prior to trading on ASX.
5.5 Application for Quotation of the New Shares
Money3 has applied to ASX for official quotation of the New Shares to be issued under the Rights Issue. The fact that ASX may grant official quotation to the New Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication by ASX as to the merits of Money3 or the New Shares.

SECTION 8- RISK FACTORS
8.1 Introduction
In addition to the general risks attached to any investment in Share or other securities, there are a number of industry specific and wider market risks that may affect the future operating and financial performance of Money3 and the value of Shares in Money3.
An investment in Money3 and Shares offered under this Rights Issue carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or market value of the Shares. If you are in doubt about investing in Shares, you should contact your stockbroker, financial planner, accountant, lawyer or other professional adviser prior to making any decision to subscribe for Shares in Money3.
8.2 Business Risks
Restructure: Shareholders should note that as per Money3's announcement of 18 November 2015, Money3 intends to exit unsecured lending by 30 June 2016. The means by which this will occur and precise impact on Money3's financial position is not presently known.
Operational: Operating risk may arise from Money3 credit assessment and debtor control processes. Although loan criteria for established products have been empirically tested and modified, there is a risk with new products that in their establishment phase, lending criteria may require revision to achieve minimal defaults. The Audit and Risk Committee ensures that loan criteria for all products are reviewed constantly with the aim of ensuring appropriateness and adequacy.
Recovery from Borrowers: The cost of recovery of a defaulting debt may sometimes be greater than the potential amount recoverable, and as such, will at times require loans to be written off as bad debts. This risk is particularly large for the small cash loans industry (given the size of the loans and that they are generally unsecured), and high levels of bad debt could limit Money3's profitability and adversely impact on its financial position.
To mitigate these risks Money3 has in place both general and product specific lending criteria as well as the following security measures:
- a credit policy aimed at identifying high risk loans
- face to face interviews with all applicants
- know your customer identification checks for all loan applicants
- Other checks / verification of income and employment and
- Place of residence checks
174536
Theft and Fraud: In any cash business, there is real risk of theft or fraud, both internally (by employees) or externally (by customers). Money3 seeks to mitigate this risk and has adopted various security procedures, including:
- police checks of all staff and allocation of individual security identification numbers to staff for access to premises;
- regular rotation of area and branch managers;
- daily reconciliation of cash floats and bank statements;
- random internal audit of customer files;
- monitoring defaults, with action taken within seven days; and
- in store video surveillance
Continuing Capital Requirements: As a result of any of the potential risks outlined in this section, expansion plans or other considerations, Money3 may in the future require further capital investment for the operation of the business. There can be no surety of Money3 being able to raise such capital on terms favourable to Money3 and a failure to do so may result in a decline in the business. If Money3 raises further capital in the future by issuing equity securities a resultant dilution in the shareholding of existing Shareholders may occur.
Profitability: Money3's future profitability will depend in part on management's ability to manage effectively its credit operation together with the expansion and growth of the business at all levels. The implementation of adequate infrastructure, cost management and policy is essential to ensure that the Money3 business model is able to adapt to both an increase or decrease in revenue. An ability to control the organisational impact and cost of expansion or the unpredicted slowing of revenue growth without a corresponding management of expenses could materially affect the profitability of Money3.
Technology: Money3 has and continues to invest in the development of computer systems and other information technology systems designed to maximise the efficiency of operations. If the systems are not adequately maintained, secured or updated, there may be a negative impact on the performance of Money3.
Insolvency: One third of Money3's loans to customers, in value, are made on an unsecured basis and Money3 could become insolvent if a significant percentage of its loan book is not repaid and recovery procedures prove inadequate to recoup funds.
Generally: There is the possibility that, for a wide range of reasons, Money3's present strategies, plans, policies, intentions and expectations may not be able to be implemented.
174536
174536
8.3 Competition
The success of Money3 is dependent on its ability to operate competitively. Where aggressive pricing policies are employed by current or future competitors, Money3 may not be able to retain adequate market share or profit margins to remain profitable. It is possible that the larger lenders (such as banks) may choose to provide more short term loans in this market segment, however Money3 believes that its cost structures and market positioning will give it a competitive advantage to new entrants in this segment of the finance market.
8.4 Market for Shares
No assurance can be given that an active market will exist in the Shares or that the Shares will trade at or above the Offer Price after the shares have been issued.
8.5 Share market Volatility
Regardless of the performance of Money3, the day to day performance of the share market and general share market conditions may affect Money3 and the price at which Shares trade on a share market such as the ASX. The share market has in the past and may in the future be affected by a number of matters including:
- economic conditions in general terms and in particular to the industry that a business operates in;
- interest rates;
- market confidence;
- supply and demand for money;
- general economic outlook; and
- changes in government policy
8.6 Changes in Legislation
The lending activities of Money3 are currently regulated by ASIC under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act (NCCP). If the requirements of the NCCP or any future legislative requirements are not met, Money3 could be subject to penalties which include an in ability to recover its fees on loans if those do not comply with the requirements of the NCCP or other legislation.
Money3 may also be affected by changes in the NCCP, the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), the Australian Consumer Law (Cth), taxation laws, other legislation or Australian Accounting Standards. Litigation may also be instigated by individuals in relation to claims relating to specific transactions or Money3 business practices generally.
Money3 has in place what the Directors believe to be thorough compliance practices and will continue to operate interactively with authorities. However, a change in regulatory environment could have a material adverse effect on the business operations and profitability on Money3.
8.7 Key Personnel
Money3 is reliant upon the skills of its executive and senior management team. The loss of key executives or staff or the inability to recruit and retain high calibre staff to manage future growth and maintain customer support to a high standard could adversely affect Money3.
There can be no assurance that Money3 will be able to attract or retain sufficiently qualified personnel on a timely basis, employ key management personnel, or establish relationships with key intermediaries.
8.8 Future Performance
No assurance as to future profitability or dividends can be given as they are dependent on future earnings and the working capital requirements of Money3.
The Directors expect, but can give no assurance, that the proceeds of the Rights Issue, together with the Placement, will provide sufficient capital resource to enable Money3 to achieve its current business objectives.
