RESULTS FOR ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE MARKET

Explanation of Operating Results

Net Operating Result before special dividend income increased 1.5% to $41.8m, but an increase in issued capital resulted in Basic Earnings per Share before special dividend income decreasing 3.2% to 6.93 cps. Special dividend income for the year totalled $3.86m, increasing Basic Earnings per Share after special dividend income to 7.57cps and Net Profit attributable to shareholders to $45.65m.

The Net Operating Result was supported by increased dividends from AGL Energy, APA Group, Transurban Limited, Macquarie Group, Sydney Airports, TPG Telecom and Ramsay Healthcare. Lower dividends received from BHP Billiton, Woolworths Limited, Woodside Petroleum, ANZ Banking Group and Primary Healthcare negatively impacted the result. Revenues from bank deposits and investments held for trading were again lower than the corresponding period.

BKI received $3.9m in special dividend income from participating in the Telstra Corporation off market buy back. This compares to $1.1m of special dividends received in 2016FY.
