Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Dividend Reinvestment Plan (‘DRP’) is in operation and the recommended fully franked interim dividend of 2.75 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 at a 2.5% discount to the price, 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.

WAM Active Limited Half Year Report Dec 16

wilsonassetmanagement.com.au ABN 49 126 420 719

Directors’ Report to shareholders for the half year ended 31 December 2016

The Directors present their report together with the financial report of WAM Active Limited for the half year ended 31 December 2016.

Directors

The following persons were Directors of the Company during the financial period and up to the date of this report:

  • Geoff Wilson (Chairman – Non-independent)

  • Matthew Kidman (Director – Independent)

  • John Abernethy (Director – Independent)

  • Chris Stott (Director – Non-independent)

  • Kate Thorley (Director – Non-independent)

Principal activity

The principal activity of the Company is investing in listed companies. The Company’s investment objectives are to deliver a regular income stream of fully franked dividends, to provide a positive return with low volatility and to preserve capital. No change in this activity took place during the period or is likely in the future.

Operating and financial review

Investment operations over the half year resulted in an operating profit before tax of $1,775,071 (2015: $3,564,968) and an operating profit after tax of $1,332,878 (2015: $2,606,469). The change in profit is a reflection of the change in value of the investment portfolio. The investment portfolio rose 7.4% in the six months to December 2016 while the portfolio increased 14.4% in the previous corresponding period. This reduction in absolute performance negatively impacted the half year profit.

Under Accounting Standards, realised gains and losses on the investment portfolio and dividend income are added to or reduced by changes in the market value of the Company’s investments. This can lead to large variations in reported profits. We believe a more appropriate measure of the results is the change in Net Tangible Assets (NTA) per share. WAM Active’s after tax NTA, adjusted for dividends, increased 3.6% for the 6 months to 31 December 2016.

The NTA after tax for each share as at 31 December 2016 amounted to $1.05 per share (2015: $1.05). The NTA before tax was $1.06 per share (2015: $1.05). These figures are after 2.5 cents of fully franked dividends paid to shareholders during the period (2015: 2.5 cents).

The total shareholder return for the Company for the period to 31 December 2016 was 17.2%, adjusted for dividends reinvested and options issued during the period.

On 11 August 2016, the Company announced a one-for-one bonus option issue to all shareholders at no cost. A total of 34,992,362 options were allotted to shareholders on the 19 September 2016. The options have an exercise price of $1.14 per share and can be exercised at any time on or before 17 September 2018. The options are currently trading on the Australian Securities Exchange under the code WAAO.

As at 31 December 2016, a total of 411,027 options had been exercised for a total consideration of $468,571, with the remaining balance of outstanding options being 34,581,335.

7. Financial instruments measured at fair value

AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement requires the disclosure of fair value information using a fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following levels:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Included within Level 1 of the hierarchy are listed investments. The fair values of these financial assets and liabilities have been based on the closing quoted last prices at the end of the reporting period, excluding transaction costs.

In valuing unlisted investments, included in Level 2 of the hierarchy, valuation techniques such as those using comparisons to similar investments for which market observable prices are available or the last sale price have been adopted to determine the fair value of these investments.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report to the Members of WAM Active Limited ABN: 49 126 420 719

Report on the period of Half Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of WAM Active Limited (“the company”) , which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the halfyear ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies, other selected explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the company.

Directors’ Responsibility for the period of Half Year Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410: “ Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity ”, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 31 December 2016 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134: “ Interim Financial Reporting ” and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of WAM Active Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of the half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
