Dear Shareholder
Blue Sky Alternatives Access Fund Limited (ASX: BAF) (the ‘Alternatives Fund’) increase in Net Tangible Assets (‘NTA’) per share for June 2018
The Alternatives Fund reports a pre-tax NTA increase to $1.1377 per share in June, a gain of 0.7%. The increase was largely the due to a 3% positive return for the Blue Sky Water Fund for the month.
The Alternatives Fund has now completed independent valuation reviews for a further 17 funds with the outcomes included in June NTA. These reviews resulted in a 1% decrease on the prior month’s aggregate carrying values for these seventeen funds.
This now completes the independent review of the carrying value of all funds within the Alternatives Fund’s portfolio, other than:
-
the Cove Property Group 441 Ninth Avenue Trust (the independent valuation review is currently being finalised and is expected to be completed in August 2018);
-
the Water Fund which is independently marked to market monthly (the process of which is managed each month by an external custodian and fund administrator); and
-
investments which are exiting or contracted for sale, as announced.
The Alternatives Fund finished FY18 with a total post tax NTA of $235.3m, including a strong cash position of $31.6m. Following the release of today’s June NTA report, the Alternatives Fund will recommence its on market share buyback program. Whilst the Company’s share price remains at a significant discount to NTA the share buyback program will remain the primary focus of surplus cash on hand.
The Board of the Alternatives Fund has progressed its search for an additional independent director and has appointed an external advisor to assist in this process.
Moving into FY19 the Board remains committed to delivering optimal shareholder outcomes and continues to review a range of initiatives.
We look forward to bringing you our next investor update in relation to July 2018, as well as the declaration of the Alternatives Fund’s FY18 final dividend there-after, in late August.
Yours faithfully
Andrew Champion Executive Chairman

==> picture [64 x 48] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [36 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
June 2018
Blue Sky Alternatives Access Fund Limited reports an increase in pre-tax NTA of 0.8 cents per share, or 0.7%, to $1.1377 in June. The increase was largely due to a 3% positive return for the Blue Sky Water Fund for the month. This was offset by a minor net impact on NTA following the independent valuation review of a further seventeen funds, which resulted in an aggregate -1% change to the carrying value of these funds. A refund of transaction costs and non-rebateable fees on three withdrawn Retirement Living projects was also incorporated in NTA.
The Alternatives Fund received two distributions during the month as well as exit proceeds from a Growth Capital exit and the return of capital from the three Retirement Living projects which have been withdrawn (as previously reported).
During June, the Alternatives Fund continued its share buy-back program and acquired 2.3 million shares at an average price of $0.79, representing a 29% discount to June 2018 post-tax NTA.
Investment Performance
-
������ Blue Sky Water Fund
-
The Alternatives Fund’s investment in the Blue Sky Water Fund increased by 3.0%[5] in June as a result of externally marked to market gains on the fund’s underlying portfolio of Water Entitlements. The water market remains strong led by primary producers seeking to secure irrigation volume across a range of key irrigation regions.
-
The monthly return reported by the Alternatives Fund is on a post-tax basis and will differ to that separately reported by the Blue Sky Water Fund which is on a pre-tax basis.
Distributions
During June, the Alternatives Fund received (previously accrued) distributions from the following funds:
-
�� Blue Sky Water Fund – a 1.1% final distribution; and
-
�� Blue Sky Strategic Agriculture Fund – a 0.8% periodic distribution.
The Alternatives Fund also accrued the following interim distributions relating to the June quarter, which are declared and will be paid during July and August:
-
�� Blue Sky Hotel Fund ~ 2.6%
-
�� Blue Sky Better Medical Fund ~ 0.5%
-
�� Blue Sky Darra Industrial Income Fund ~ 2.5%
-
�� Blue Sky Revesby Industrial Income Fund ~ 1.8% (maiden distribution)
Results of Independent Valuation Reviews
For the June NTA report, independent valuation reviews were accelerated for a further seventeen funds. These included eight Private Equity funds, two Real Assets funds, four Residential funds and three Other Real Estate funds. These reviews resulted in a 1% decrease on the prior month’s aggregate carrying values of those seventeen funds.
Private Equity (Growth Capital + Venture Capital)
The outcome of the independent reviews of the Private Equity funds is summarised in the table below:

- There was no change in the reviewed asset values for these funds. Change in carrying value is due to net impact of year-end fund level accounting adjustments and foreign exchange where relevant.
Blue Sky Private Equity Birch & Waite Fund
The Alternatives Fund invested into the Blue Sky Private Equity Birch & Waite Fund in December 2017 and remains in the initial stages of its anticipated hold period. Early progress has been positive, with the business growing operating earnings in line with investment case. As the business remains in the early stages of its investment, no change has been made to the asset value.
Blue Sky Private Equity Digital Outdoor Advertising Fund
This fund holds equity in a US-based business which constructs, owns and operates digital advertising panels. Delays in planning and regulatory approvals has led to a discount in holding value, although significant upside potential remains in relation to pending approvals.
Blue Sky Energy Storage Infrastructure Fund
esVolta currently comprises two operational projects, two projects in development, and three recently won development projects, with several more near-term opportunities. As the business is in its first six months of investment, no change has been made to the asset value.
Blue Sky Private Equity IT Consulting Fund
Realised Investments
Blue Sky Private Equity Early Learning Fund
The first instalment of proceeds from the sale of Foundation Early Learning was received during June. Total proceeds received to date (including fee rebates) represent 1.0x invested capital, with a further top-up payment based on final FY18 earnings due to be received in the coming months, as announced.
Return of capital from three Retirement Living Funds
As announced in the May update, three Retirement Living projects were withdrawn due to changes in planning regulations and development requirements impacting their investment case. Accordingly, Blue Sky made the decision to withdraw its fund investors’ money from those projects and refund equity contributed to these funds. In June, the Alternatives Fund received $10.5 million (being the total equity invested in these funds) plus interest.
Still within the first year of Blue Sky’s investment, Digital Lifecycle Group is a digital transformation partner to leading public and private organisations. As the business remains in the early stages of its investment, no change has been made to the asset value.
Blue Sky Private Equity Origo Education Fund
Origo’s education products have recently been adopted in several additional US school districts and the business remains well placed to pursue further opportunities in the US. A 6% uplift in carrying value reflects the results delivered in CY18 to date and outlook for CY19.
Blue Sky Private Equity QFS Fund
QFS has continued to perform well, with the business completing an additional acquisition in May to add to the seven completed acquisitions to date. There has been no change in the asset value in June whilst the acquisition program progresses and synergies develop.

June 2018
Blue Sky Private Equity Shoes of Prey Fund
Shoes of Prey has progressed its direct-to-consumer (D2C) and business-to-business (B2B) strategies over the past six months. Management is focused on this revised business plan and has entered into a process to raise additional financing. Carrying value has been discounted to reflect the fact that at this stage the terms of the financing are uncertain.
Blue Sky VC2014 Fund LP
This fund holds a portfolio of nine late-stage venture capital investments, including Vinomofo (independently reviewed in May with carrying value updated), Eloquii, Go1, Fluent Commerce, Lexer, Parcel Point, Serene Medical, Shoes of Prey (referred to above) and THR1VE.
There has been a small change in the fund’s carrying value following June’s independent reviews of -5%.
Real Assets
The carrying value of two Real Assets funds was independently reviewed during the month, with results as follows:
Blue Sky Agriculture Fund II
The increase in carrying value of Hillston Citrus’ orchards and on farm infrastructure is due to positive market conditions, continued demand from export destinations and the change in Hillston Citrus’ land, structures and water entitlements values since the last valuation in June 2017. The independent valuation has resulted in a 16% uplift in carrying value.
Blue Sky Strategic Australian Agriculture Fund
Outside of its investment in the Blue Sky Water Fund, which is marked to market monthly, the other assets in the Strategic Ag Fund remain in the early stages of its investment, and therefore no change has been made to their asset values following the independent review.
Private Real Estate (Residential Developments)
The outcomes of the independent reviews of the Residential funds are summarised in the table below:

19 Railway Terrace Milton Trust
Blue Sky has recently secured debt funding for the project following the achievement of the pre-sale milestones. Construction is expected to commence next month.
Flora Street Greenslopes Trust
An independent review of the Flora Street investment has given rise to a -48% revision to its carrying value. Under the Alternatives Fund’s valuation policy this project continues to be held at land value only, with an independent land valuation resulting in the reduction in the holding value of this land. Project work continues in relation to pre-sales, project debt funding and preparation for a fixed price construction tender process.

==> picture [64 x 48] intentionally omitted <==
The investment manager’s current expectations for this project continue to be to provide a meaningful positive overall return on equity for investors.
Wellington Road East Brisbane Trust I and II
An independent review of the Wellington Road investment has given rise to a -9% revision to its carrying value. Under the Alternatives Fund’s valuation policy this project continues to be held at land value only, with an independent land valuation resulting in the reduction in the holding value of this land. This project has been delayed in response to an increase in supply of new apartments in the area. Over the coming months it is anticipated that project planning and construction tendering will continue with a view to launch a sales campaign in 1H FY19.
Private Real Estate (Other Real Estate)
The outcomes of independent reviews of Other Real Estate funds are summarised in the table below:

Asset Class Private Real Estate Private Real Estate Private Real Estate |
Carrying Value Change (%) (17%) 1% (1%) |
||
| Aggregate change | (10%) |
Cove Property Group 2 Rector Street Trust
Cove Property Group (Blue Sky’s joint venture partner) completed final works on the renovation of 101 Greenwich (formerly named ‘2 Rector Street’) in March 2018 and is now focused on leasing this repositioned office building in New York. The 17% decrease in carrying value is the net impact of additional capital expenditure in FY18 without a corresponding increase in the asset valuation. Now that capital works are complete, Cove Property Group remains confident of achieving returns in line with investment case as and when long term commercial leases are procured. The expectation is that this will result in uplifts in carrying values for this fund in future periods.
Darra Industrial Income Fund
The Blue Sky Darra Industrial Income Fund has continued to pay distributions in line with investment case with a total of $0.2790 paid to investors since inception. The carrying value for this asset saw a slight uplift (+1%) in June following independent external review.
Revesby Industrial Income Fund
An independent valuation of this fund’s industrial property in Revesby, Western Sydney led to a minor uplift in June, which was offset by fund expenses and asset holding costs. The net result for June was a 1% decrease in fund carrying value. As noted previously, this fund declared its maiden quarterly distribution in June.
Cove Property Group 441 Ninth Avenue Trust
The carrying value of this Hudson Commons project has been maintained at cost in June whilst construction is ongoing. Cove has had positive early engagement with a range of corporate tenants seeking space in the Hudson Yards precinct. An independent valuation of this asset was commissioned as planned in conjunction with Blue Sky’s joint venture partner. It has commenced but not yet finalised and is expected to be completed by early August.
