Market overview

The S&P/ASX All Ordinaries Accumulation Index fell 7.3% in August, making it the worst performing month since the start of the global financial crisis. Australia followed the global sell off as China’s economic growth weakened and commodity prices continued to fall.

August also saw a poor 2015 financial year reporting season underscored by downbeat company outlook statements and short-term volatility around result announcements.

Despite the challenging conditions, we are well placed to act on opportunities in the market as they arise.

Final dividend key dates

The Company announced a fully franked final dividend of 2.5 cents per share on 27 August 2015. The key dates are:

Ex date: 19 October 2015 Record date: 21 October 2015 Last election date for DRP: 22 October 2015 Payment date: 30 October 2015
