Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The Dividend Reinvestment Plan is in operation and the recommended fully franked final dividend of 2.5 cents per share qualifies. Participating shareholders will be entitled to be allotted the number of shares (rounded to the nearest whole number) which the cash dividend would purchase at the relevant issue price. The relevant issue price will be calculated as the VWAP (volume weighted average market price) of shares sold on the ASX on the ex date for the relevant dividend and the 3 trading days following that date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
1. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 .
The Company is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.
WAM Active Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the Australian Accounting Standards Board has concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the IASB. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs with the exception of financial assets and certain other financial assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value.
a) Financial instruments
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. For financial assets, trade date accounting is adopted, which is equivalent to the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the assets.
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs related to financial instruments are expensed to the Statement of Comprehensive Income immediately.
Classification and subsequent measurement
Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value. Current market prices for all quoted investments are used to determine fair value. For all unlisted securities that are not traded in an active market, valuation techniques are applied to determine fair value, including recent arm’s length transactions and reference to similar instruments.
The Company classifies its financial instruments into the following categories:
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets are classified “at fair value through the profit or loss” when they are held for trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period in which they arise.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
1. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)
a) Financial instruments (cont’d)
- (ii) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities such as borrowed stock is classified “at fair value through profit or loss”. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in which they arise.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party, whereby the Company no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expire. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
b) Income tax
The charge of current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any nonassessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the end of the current financial year. Current tax liabilities/(assets) are measured at the amounts expected to be paid to/(recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.
No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the Statement of Comprehensive Income except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)
b) Income tax (cont’d)
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are only offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
c) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, at call deposits with banks or financial institutions and other term deposits maturing within four months or less.
d) Revenue and other income
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets, is the rate inherent in the instrument. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
e) Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are non-derivative financial assets and are initially recognised at fair value. They are subsequently stated at their amortised cost less the provision for impairment losses (please refer to Note 1(g) for further detail).
f) Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are non-derivative financial liabilities and are stated at their amortised cost.
g) Impairment of assets
At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying values of its non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets may be impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
h) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as an asset or liability in the Statement of Financial Position.

1. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)
h) Goods and Services Tax (GST) (cont’d)
Cash flows are presented in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
i) Comparative figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
j) Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The Directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and the best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data.
There are no estimates or judgements that have a material impact on the financial results of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2015. All material financial assets are valued by reference to quoted prices and therefore no significant estimates or judgements are required in respect to their valuation.
k) Profits reserve
The profits reserve is made up of amounts transferred from current and retained earnings that are preserved for future dividend payments.
l) Dividends
Dividends are recognised when declared during the financial year and no longer at the discretion of the Company.
m) New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The Australian Accounting Standards Board has issued a number of new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods, some of which are relevant to the Company. The Company has decided not to adopt any of the new and amended pronouncements. A new and amended pronouncement that is relevant to the Company, but applicable in future reporting periods is AASB 9: Financial Instruments and its associated amending standards.
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard replaces all previous versions of AASB 9 and completes the project to replace IAS 39 (AASB 139) - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. This standard introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets, using a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortised cost or fair value. The accounting for financial liabilities continues to be measured in accordance with AASB 139, with one exception, being that the portion of a change of fair value relating to the entity’s own credit risk is to be presented in other comprehensive income unless it would create an accounting mismatch. The Company has not early adopted AASB 9. This is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements as the Company does not expect to elect any investments as not held for trading.

Holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends as declared from time to time, and are entitled to one vote per share at shareholder meetings; otherwise each member present at a meeting or by proxy has one vote on a show of hands. In the event of the winding up of the Company, ordinary shareholders rank after creditors and share in any proceeds on winding up in proportion to the number of shares held.
c) Capital management
The Board manages the Company’s capital by regularly reviewing the most efficient manner by which the Company deploys its capital. At the core of this management is the belief that shareholder value should be preserved. Shareholder value will be preserved through the management of the level of distributions to shareholders, share and option issues as well as the use of share buy-backs. These capital management initiatives will be used when deemed appropriate by the Board. There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by the Board to control the capital of the Company since the prior year. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
d) Return of Capital
As at 31 December 2014, the Company’s net assets were less than issued capital. The Directors recognise investors have cash flow needs and therefore declared a 4.0 cents per share Return of Capital, which was approved by shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held in Sydney on 19 May 2015. WAM Active traded ex-Return of Capital on 21 May 2015 and the payment was made on 1 June 2015.
