OVERVIEW OF RESULTS The Group had a successful year which was characterised by strong growth in assets under management and the solid investment performance of our Global Equities and Infrastructure Equities strategies. This is reflected in the Group’s strong growth both in earnings and dividends. For the year ended 30 June 2013, the Group recorded a net profit after tax of $66.6 million ($13.7 million for 2012). Fully diluted earnings per share was 40.0 cents per share (8.5 cents per share for 2012). The full year net profit included a realised after tax gain on the in-specie distribution of the Group’s holding in Magellan Flagship Fund Limited (MFF) of approximately $18.1 million. The Group’s underlying net profit after tax, excluding the gain on the in-specie distribution, was $48.5 million for the year ended 30 June 2013. Underlying fully diluted earnings per share was 29.2 cents per share. The Group’s underlying net profit includes: • revenues, excluding realised and unrealised investment gains and foreign exchange gains/losses, of $90.9 million compared with revenues of $35.8 million for the prior year. These revenues included management and performance fee revenues of $84.5 million, an increase of $53.4 million or 172% over the prior year; and • total operating expenses of $25.9 million, compared with total operating expenses of $16.7 million for the prior year. The Group’s total revenue of $120.9 million for the year to 30 June 2013 ($35.8 million for the year to 30 June 2012) included realised and unrealised investment gains on financial assets (including the effect of the in-specie distribution) of $28.5 million. Future revenue growth will depend upon the Group’s average level of funds under management, and the investment performance of our funds and client mandates. Reported revenues will also include any realised gains or losses on investments. 1 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ANNUAL LETTER The Group is in a strong financial position with an extremely strong balance sheet. As at 30 June 2013: • • the Group had investment assets (including the cash and fixed and variable rate debt investments) of approximately $153.3 million and shareholders’ funds of $153.0 million; and the Group’s NTA per share (diluted for MFG 2016 Options and the conversion of the Class B Shares) was approximately $1.02 ($0.91 at 30 June 2012, diluted only for the conversion of the Class B Shares as the MFG share price was below the MFG 2016 Options exercise price). The Group completed the in-specie distribution of its investment in Magellan Flagship Fund Limited (MFF) on 19 February 2013. The in-specie distribution of this holding of MFF shares and options reduced the Group’s investment assets by approximately $54.7 million and fully diluted NTA by $0.28 per share. On 31 July 2013, a controlled entity of the Company, and a member of the Group’s tax consolidated group was declared an Offshore Banking Unit (OBU). Under the current legislation, assessable offshore banking (OB) income derived from defined OB funds management and advisory activities provided to clients outside of Australia and New Zealand, net of costs, will be subject to a concessional tax rate of 10%. Revenues earned from non- resident clients that are invested in the Group’s global equities strategy meet the current definition of assessable OB income. The Directors have proposed a final fully franked dividend of 16.5 cents per ordinary share in respect of the 2013 financial year, which represents a final dividend of approximately $25.2 million. In accordance with accounting standards, the final dividend has not been provided for in the 30 June 2013 financial statements. A fully franked interim dividend of 5.0 cents per share was paid in April 2013 following the 31 December 2012 half year results. The Directors have affirmed the policy of paying a dividend of 75% to 80% of the net profit after tax (NPAT) of the Group’s funds management business, with the NPAT calculation to include any crystallised performance fees, which may fluctuate materially from period to period. The payment of dividends by the Group will be subject to available franking credits and corporate, legal and regulatory considerations. 2 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ANNUAL LETTER Funds Management Business For the year ended 30 June 2013, the Group’s funds management business generated revenues of approximately $86.0 million ($32.7 million for 2012) and had expenses of approximately $25.2 million ($16.4 million for 2012), which resulted in a profit before tax of $60.8 million ($16.3 million for 2012). The following table summarises the profitability of the funds management business over the past two years: Revenue Management fees Performance fees Consulting fees Interest & other income Expenses Employee expense US marketing/consulting fees1 Other expense 30 June 2013 $’000 30 June 2012 $’000 Change % 56,007 28,449 1,200 325 85,981 17,428 1,598 6,182 25,208 21,976 9,066 1,218 400 32,660 11,378 - 4,983 16,361 155% 214% (2)% (19)% 163% 53% - 24% 54% Profit before tax 60,773 16,299 273% Key Statistics Net assets ($’000) Average number of employees Employee expenses / Total expenses Cost / income Cost / income, excl. performance fees 178% 34% 35,547 51 69.1% 29.3% 43.8% 12,803 38 69.5% 50.1% 69.3% Management fee and performance fee revenues increased as a result of higher average funds under management over the period and strong investment performance. Employee expense increased by 53% over the prior year, to $17.4 million. This was due to a 34% increase in the average number of employees and an increase in remuneration levels. At 31 July 2013 there were 61 employees across the Investment, Distribution, and Business Support and Control functions. Based on our current plans we expect that in the 2013/14 financial year the number of employees will increase modestly above the current level. 1 Pursuant to the agreement Frontier Partners Inc. is entitled to receive 20% of net management and performance fees from institutional mandates with clients in North America. 3 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ANNUAL LETTER Based on current plans, we expect total employee expenses to increase approximately 40% over the last year based on the increase in the average number of employees and increased remuneration levels. The funds management business showed an improvement in the cost to income (excluding performance fees) ratio which decreased from 69.3% to 43.8% for the 2012/13 financial year. Employee expenses as a percentage of total expenses remained relatively flat. The following table sets out the total employee numbers over the past 3 years, and as at 31 July 2013.

We added 14 people during the year with key hires including a Chief Financial Officer and Chief Risk Officer which further developed our financial risk and compliance teams and will provide greater experience and capability to support growth across the Group. Our Investment team has experienced the most growth with an additional seven people added to our research sector teams and a second person joining our trading function. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the people we have hired and the overall development of the team. We have been busy adding capability, along with improving the controls and processes of our business. During the year we implemented a customised trading order management system and moved our key Australian managed funds to a new custodian. In August we expect to launch a UCITS fund based out of Ireland initially to service institutional investors interested in our Global Equity strategy. 4 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ANNUAL LETTER As at 31 July 2013, the Group had funds under management of approximately $15,982 million, split between global equities (82%) and infrastructure equities (18%). This compares with funds under management of $14,695 million at 30 June 2013 and $4,006 million at 30 June 2012. The following table sets out the composition of funds under management over the past three financial years: Funds Under Management A$ million Retail Institutional - Australia/New Zealand - North America - Rest of World Total FUM Percentage Retail Institutional - Australia/ New Zealand - North America - Rest of World 31 July 2013 30 June 2013 30 June 2012 30 June 2011 4,962 4,542 1,750 1,082 2,589 3,085 5,346 11,020 2,424 2,891 4,838 10,153 1,924 306 26 2,256 1,674 - - 1,674 15,982 14,695 4,006 2,756 31% 31% 44% 39% 16% 20% 33% 69% 16% 20% 33% 69% 48% 7% 1% 56% 61% - - 61% Total FUM 100% 100% 100% 100% FUM subject to Performance Fees (%) 39% 39% 53% 39% Institutional Funds Under management (%) - Active - Enhanced beta 79% 21% 80% 20% 35% 65% 11% 89% Breakdown of Funds under management (A$ million) - Global Equities - Infrastructure Equities 13,094 2,888 12,088 2,607 2,357 1,649 1,046 1,710 Average Base Management fee (bps), excluding Performance Fees(A) (A) calculated using management fees (excluding performance fees) for the prior six month period divided by the average of month end funds under management over the same period 66 71 61 5 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ANNUAL LETTER We note that our retail business has higher fees than our institutional business and our infrastructure enhanced beta product has lower fees than other institutional mandates. We consider that the theoretical capacity of our global equities and infrastructure strategies is approximately US$50 billion. We carefully take into account the investment universe, the market capitalisation established for the strategy and liquidity requirements in ascertaining the theoretical capacity of each of our strategies. We further note that at 31 July 2013 we were managing around US$14.3 billion (A$16.0 billion) and the above capacity numbers are purely theoretical and should in no way be taken as a forecast or indication as to the level of funds under management that Magellan may manage in the future. Retail Funds Under Management At 30 June 2013 the Group had total retail funds under management of $4,542 million. We experienced total net retail inflows of $1,783 million for the 12 months to 30 June 2013. The Magellan Global Fund and the Magellan Infrastructure Fund continue to enhance their reputations with research houses and major financial planning groups in Australia and New Zealand. We have an outstanding team of business development managers, led by Frank Casarotti, with offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland. Both these funds have established strong performance records. On 1 July 2013 we launched three new funds for Australian and New Zealand investors. Complementing our existing funds, we have launched the Magellan Global Fund (Hedged), a currency hedged offering of our Global Equities strategy, and Magellan Infrastructure Fund (Unhedged). We also launched a new investment product, the Magellan High Conviction Fund. This fund is a highly concentrated global equity strategy (8-12 stocks) and will be managed by myself, as Lead Portfolio Manager. It is available to financial advisers in Australia and New Zealand with a focus on higher net worth individual investors. The fee structure is a base management fee of 1.5% of funds under management plus a performance fee of 10% of returns above 10% per annum, subject to a high water mark. The estimated capacity of this product is approximately US$3 billion. We view this new product as highly complementary to our current investment offerings and importantly leverages our existing investment research and processes.

The Auckland roadshow is scheduled for 3 September 2013 and approximately 150 advisers are planning to attend. Institutional Funds Under Management At 30 June 2013 the Group had total institutional funds under management of $10,153 million. We experienced institutional net inflows of $6,190 million for the 12 months to 30 June 2013. We are pleased with the development of our institutional funds management business. In September 2011 we entered into an agreement with Frontier Partners Inc. to distribute our global equity and infrastructure capabilities to clients in the North America. Since this time we have established meaningful relationships with many potential clients and asset consultants in North America and this year won nine global equity mandates and one infrastructure mandate. We also act as sub-adviser to two institutional mutual funds in the United States (Frontegra MFG Global Equity Fund and Frontegra MFG Infrastructure Fund). These mutual funds are for US based investors that would not qualify for our separate account minimum. At 30 June 2013 we had total funds under management of approximately $2,891 million from clients in North America. We are pleased with our relationship with Frontier Partners and the depth of the prospective client pipeline. We have had considerable success in the United Kingdom in the past 12 months. In February 2013 we announced that we had won a mandate from St James’s Place with an initial funding amount of approximately $3.0 billion. At 30 June 2013 this account had grown to $3.7 billion. In May 2012, a UK insurance company (in partnership with FTSE and the Group) launched an infrastructure fund that replicates the Magellan Core Infrastructure (enhanced beta) strategy. The fund has proven popular with small to medium sized pension funds in the UK and had approximately $986 million in investments at 30 June 2013. On 8 November 2012, Magellan Asset Management Limited (MAM), a controlled entity of the Company, received authorisation from the Central Bank of Ireland to act as a promoter and investment manager to Irish authorised collective investment schemes. In August 2013, MFG Investment Fund plc, a company incorporated in Ireland, sought approval by the Central Bank of Ireland to be authorised under the European Communities (Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (UCITS)) Regulations, and appoint MAM as promoter and investment manager to a proposed initial sub-fund MFG Global Fund. MFG Global Fund will offer the Group’s global equities strategy to global institutional clients. At the time of this report, MFGIF has not received confirmation of its authorisation from the Central Bank of Ireland. We are encouraged by the client interest for this fund when it is launched. 8 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ANNUAL LETTER We are very pleased with the progress we are making in Australia with asset consultants and prospective institutional clients. At 30 June 2013 we had 25 Australian institutional clients across our business with total funds under management of $2,424 million. Infrastructure Our infrastructure team, led by Gerald Stack and Dennis Eagar, have established a strong institutional business in Australia, with a developing presence in the UK and North America. Investment performance has been strong and the infrastructure team had funds under management of $2,607 million, compared with $1,649 million at 30 June 2012. The infrastructure business’ FUM is split approximately 92% institutional and 8% retail at 30 June 2013. It is still early days in the life of our business and there are no grounds for any complacency or lack of focus. We will only succeed for the long-term through rigorous analytical processes and a disciplined focus upon managing risks as well as delivering returns for the investment funds entrusted to us, whilst maintaining the positive relationships we have with asset consultants, financial planners and investors in our funds. INVESTMENTS IN MAGELLAN’S FUNDS AND PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS At 30 June 2013 the Group had total principal investments of $127.9 million (net of tax and settlements payable), which compares with total investment assets of approximately $131.1 million at 30 June 2012. The Group completed the in-specie distribution of its holding in MFF on 19 February 2013. The in-specie distribution reduced the Group’s investment assets by approximately $54.7 million. Over time we hope to earn satisfactory returns for shareholders through the sensible deployment of the Group’s capital, whilst maintaining capital strength to underpin the business. We intend for the Group to maintain a very strong balance sheet including a high level of liquidity to ensure our business will withstand almost any market condition or unforseen event. Our principal investments supplement our funds management business, including being used as seed capital for our funds. On 1 July 2013, the Group seeded the Magellan High Conviction Fund with approximately $13 million by way of an in-specie transfer of a portion of its principal investment portfolio. This conservative balance sheet approach benefited the Group, particularly during the early stages of the funds management business, and we believe will benefit Magellan in the future. 9 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ANNUAL LETTER The following table sets out a summary of the Group’s principal investments over the past 2 financial years: MFG Group’s Principal Investments A$ million 2013 2012 Cash(A) Fixed Term Deposits Magellan Flagship Fund Magellan Unlisted Funds(B) Listed shares Listed subordinated bank notes Other(C) Total Deferred tax liability(D) Net principal investments Net principal investments per share (cents)(E) 24.3 9.7 - 73.1 21.6 4.3 2.8 135.8 (7.9) 127.9 0.5 23.1 42.2 52.6 9.1 1.7 2.8 132.0 (0.9) 131.1 78.7 81.1 (A) Settlements payable at 30 June 2013 of $8.8 million (refer to note 10 in the financial statements) has been deducted from cash.

For the purposes of this report Key Management Personnel of the Group are defined as those persons and corporate entities having “authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling activities of the entity”. Key Management Personnel of the Group are the Non-executive Directors, Executive Directors and the Group’s senior executives with authority for the planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Group, as set out below: Chris Mackay Chairman and Executive Director Hamish Douglass Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director Brett Cairns Paul Lewis Naomi Milgrom Nerida Campbell Gerald Stack Frank Casarotti Non-executive Director Non-executive Director Non-executive Director Chief Operating Officer and Company Secretary Head of Research Head of Distribution The Board does not grant options to Key Management Personnel or the Group’s employees under its remuneration policy. 3.1 Remuneration of Non-executive Directors The Board reviews and determines the remuneration of the Non-executive Directors and may utilise the services of external advisors. The Board’s remuneration policy is designed to attract and retain appropriately experienced, skilled and qualified personnel in order to achieve the Group’s objectives. The remuneration of the Non-executive Directors is not linked to the performance or earnings of the Group. The Non-executive Directors are eligible to participate in the Company’s Share Purchase Plan (SPP) which is described later in this report. Remuneration for two of the Non-executive Directors’ remuneration includes share based payment amounts that represent the non cash expense to the Group of providing interest free loans under the SPP. The Company has reimbursed or borne expenses incurred by the non-executive directors in the discharge of their duties of $13,344 (June 2012: $776). 3.2 Remuneration of Executive Directors and Other Key Management Personnel The Board’s remuneration policy is designed to attract and retain appropriately experienced, skilled and qualified personnel in order to achieve the Group’s objectives. Executive Directors The Executive Directors’ remuneration is determined by the Board, which may utilise the services of external advisors. In respect of the year ended 30 June 2013 it comprised fixed compensation and in respect of Mr Douglass only, a variable compensation amount in the form of a short term incentive payment. Fixed compensation is structured as a total employment cost package, which may be received as a combination of cash, non-cash benefits and superannuation contributions. 17 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 3. 2013 Remuneration Report (Audited) 3.2 Remuneration of Executive Directors and Other Key Management Personnel (continued) The amount of fixed compensation was not dependent on the satisfaction of a performance condition, or the performance of the Group, the Company’s share price, or dividends paid by the Company. The amount of variable compensation paid to Mr Douglass in respect of the year ended 30 June 2013 was determined with reference to Mr Douglass’ achievement of agreed criteria and performance metrics. Mr Mackay was not entitled to receive a short term or long term incentive in respect of the year ended 30 June 2013. Details of the employment agreements of the Executive Directors are described later in this report. Other Key Management Personnel The Other Key Management Personnel’s remuneration comprises fixed and variable remuneration that takes into account the individual’s experience, abilities, achievements, contribution to the Group, and in one case is determined to be at least an agreed fixed percentage of the net revenues earned by the Group in respect to the investment strategy for which that individual has responsibility. Other Key Management Personnel’s fixed compensation is structured as a total employment cost package, which may be received as a combination of cash, non-cash benefits and superannuation contributions. Fixed compensation is reviewed annually to ensure that it is competitive and reasonable, however there are no guaranteed increases to the fixed compensation amount. The variable compensation paid to one member of Other Key Management Personnel, is based on a fixed percentage of the net revenues earned by the Group in respect to the investment strategy for which that employee has responsibility. The Board considers that a focus on short term indicators for the determination of short term variable compensation, such as movements in the Company’s share price, may encourage performance that is not in the best interests of the Group and its shareholders. The Board is more concerned that Other Key Management Personnel are motivated to build investment returns for investors in the funds managed by the Group and to build shareholder wealth over the long term. The Board believes that the participation in the Group’s SPP by Other Key Management Personnel closely aligns their interests with the long term interests of shareholders. The Chief Executive Officer determines the amount of variable compensation to be paid to Other Key Management Personnel, taking into consideration the individual’s performance, contribution during the year, and where applicable the agreed fixed percentage of the net revenues earned by the Group in respect of the investment strategy for which that individual has responsibility. The variable component of the Other Key Management Personnel is not dependent on the satisfaction of performance conditions (except as noted), the Company’s share price, or dividends paid by the Company. Other Key Management Personnel are eligible to participate in the Group’s SPP which is described later in this report. Other Key Management Personnel remuneration includes share based payment amounts that represent the non-cash expense to the Group of providing interest free loans under the SPP. 18 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 3. 2013 Remuneration Report (Audited) 3.2 Remuneration of Executive Directors and Other Key Management Personnel (continued) Share Purchase Plan (SPP) The Group has put in place a SPP that provides financial assistance to Non-executive Directors and employees (‘Participants’), by way of an interest free loan, to invest in shares in the Company.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies This financial report is for Magellan Financial Group Limited (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Group”) for the year ended 30 June 2013. The report was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 16 August 2013. The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. (a) Basis of Preparation This financial report is a general purpose financial report which is presented in Australian dollars and has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and other mandatory professional reporting requirements. The Company is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing this financial report. Compliance with IFRS The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards (AASB) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Historical cost convention This financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis and under the historical cost convention except for assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value. New accounting standards During the year, the Group and Company applied AASB 2011-9: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income. This amended AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements and required items in other comprehensive income to be presented in two groups, based on whether they may be recycled to profit or loss in the future. This has not affected the measurement of any of the items recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. None of the other new standards or amendments to standards that are mandatory for the first time in this financial report affected any of the amounts recognised or the disclosures in the current or prior year. New accounting standards issued but not yet adopted The following accounting standards and interpretations issued or amended but not yet mandatory have not been adopted by the Company in the preparation of this financial report. The impact of these standards, along with the effective date, is set out below:  AASB 119: Employee Benefits and AASB 2011-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 119 (effective 1 July 2013) AASB 119 Employee Benefits revised the definition of short-term and long-term employee benefits and now requires all employee benefits to be calculated and classified based on when the employee benefit is expected to be taken rather than when it vests. Discounting will apply to all benefits classified as long-term. During the year the Group assessed this standard and determined it will have no material impact on the Group or Company’s financial performance or financial position as at 30 June 2013. 34 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (a) Basis of Preparation (continued)  AASB 2012-5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Mandatory Effective Date of AASB 9 and Transition Disclosures (effective 1 July 2013) AASB 2012-5 comprises minor amendments to AASB 1, 101, 116, 132 and 134 and no impact on the Group or Company’s financial performance or financial position is expected once these amendments are applied.    AASB 2012-2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities and AASB 2012-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (effective 1 July 2014) AASB 2012-2 and AASB 2012-3 amends AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation by revising and clarifying the criteria where financial assets and liabilities can be offset in the financial statements. As at 30 June 2013, neither the Group nor the Company has any offsetting arrangements and as a result no additional disclosures or material impact on the financial performance or financial position is expected on adoption of the amendments. AASB 9: Financial Instruments and AASB 2012-6: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Mandatory Effective Date of AASB 9 and Transition Disclosures (effective 1 July 2015) AASB 9 contains new requirements for classification, measurement and de-recognition of financial assets and liabilities, replacing the recognition and measurement requirements in AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. Under the new requirements the four current categories of financial assets discussed at note 1(i) will be replaced with two measurement categories: fair value and amortised cost. Financial assets will only be able to be measured at amortised cost where very specific conditions are met. At 30 June 2013, no significant impact is expected on adoption of this standard as the Group and Company currently classify its financial assets and financial liabilities at either fair value or amortised cost and the carrying value of investments measured at amortised cost approximates fair value. However the Group continues to evaluate the disclosure requirements of this standard. AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement and AASB 2011-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 13 (effective 1 July 2013) AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance for determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. AASB 13 does not change when the Group or Company is required to use fair value but, rather, provides guidance on how to determine fair value when fair value is required or permitted, and expands the disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities carried at fair value. During the year, the Company has undertaken an assessment of all assets and liabilities and determined only cash and cash equivalents are held at fair value. No impact is expected on the Company’s financial performance or financial position nor are additional disclosures required upon adoption of this Standard as the necessary fair value disclosure is currently provided under AASB 7 for these assets. 35 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (a) Basis of Preparation (continued)  AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements, AASB 11: Joint Arrangements, AASB 12: Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, AASB 127: Separate Financial Statements, AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australia Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards (effective 1 July 2013) AASB 10 replaces all guidance on control and consolidation in AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, and Interpretation 12 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. AASB 10 establishes a new control model and broadens the situations when an entity is considered to be controlled by another entity as it focuses on the need to have both power and rights or exposure to variable returns. Control generally exists when the investor can use its power to affect the amount of its returns. AASB 11 replaces AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures and uses the principle of control in AASB 10. During the year, the Company has undertaken an assessment of its investments and does not anticipate AASB 10 or AASB 11 will have a significant impact on its composition. In addition to the above, an amendment to IFRS 10 was issued on October 2012 which provides an exemption from consolidating controlled investments where the Company meets the definition of an Investment Entity. This permits the Investment Entity to measure its controlled investments in funds at fair value through the profit and loss rather than consolidating investments on a line-by-line basis. An ‘investment entity’ is defined as an entity whose business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from capital appreciation and/or investment income. This amendment was released on 14 August 2013 and the Company will shortly assess whether it qualifies as an Investment Entity. AASB 12 requires disclosures relating to the Group and Company’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and structured entities. It introduces new disclosures about the judgements made by management to determine whether control exists and requires summarised information about joint arrangements, associates and structured entities and subsidiaries with non-controlling interests. It is not expected that the new standard will have a significant impact on the type of information disclosed in relation to the Group and Company’s investments. (b) Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial report comprises the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities and the results of all controlled entities for the year. The Company and its controlled entities are collectively referred to in this financial report as the Group or the consolidated entity. Controlled entities i) Controlled entities (which are listed at note 14 b)) are entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding or more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Controlled entities are fully consolidated from the date control commenced and de- consolidated from the date that control ceased. 36 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (b) Principles of consolidation (continued) i) Controlled entities (continued) All inter-entity balances and transactions between entities in the Group, including unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated in full on consolidation. Investments in Associates ii) Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting in the consolidated financial statements. An associate is an entity over which the Group is determined to have significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture. The Group generally deems it has significant influence if it has greater than a 20% share in the entity. Under the equity method, the investment in an associate is carried in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate. Where an associate was previously a controlled entity of the Group, the deemed cost for the purpose of applying the equity method is the fair value on the date that the Group ceased to have a controlling interest. After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with the respect to the Group’s net investment in associates. The Group’s share of an associate’s post-acquisition profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves, including its available-for-sale reserve, is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. Dividends receivable from an associate are recognised in the Company’s Statement of Comprehensive Income as income, while in the consolidated financial statements they reduce the carrying value of the investment. (c) Business Combinations The purchase method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, shares issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. Where listed equity instruments are issued in a business combination, the fair value of the instruments is the published closing market bid price as at the date of the exchange. Where unlisted equity instruments are issued in a business combination, the fair value of the instruments will be determined by the Directors using an appropriate valuation methodology. Acquisition costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity. Except for non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale (which are measured at fair value less costs to sell), all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of the business combination over the net fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognised as goodwill. If the cost of the acquisition is less than the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable net assets of the controlled entity, the difference is recognised as a gain in profit or loss, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired. Where settlement of any part of the consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. 37 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (d) Segment Reporting An operating segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that is engaged in business activities from which the Group earns revenues and incurs expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker in order to make decisions about the allocation of resources to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. The chief operating decision maker has been determined as the Chief Executive Officer, Mr Hamish Douglass. (e) Foreign Currency Translation The functional and presentation currency of the Company and its controlled entities as determined in accordance with AASB 121: The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates is the Australian dollar. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Australian dollars at the foreign currency exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Australian dollars at the Reuters London 4pm exchange rates at balance date. The fair values of financial assets are determined using the Reuters London 4pm exchange rates at balance date. Foreign currency exchange differences relating to financial assets are included in net changes in fair value in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. All other foreign currency exchange differences are presented separately in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as net gains/losses on foreign exchange. (f) Revenue Recognition Management, Administration and Performance Fees Management and administration fees arise from providing:  investment management services as investment manager and sub-advisor to the funds and external wholesale client mandates set out at note 6; and  Trustee and Responsible Entity services where the Company acts as Trustee and Responsible Entity to the funds as set out in note 6. Management fee revenue, which is based on a percentage of the portfolio value, is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as it is earned and calculated in accordance with the Investment Management Agreements and Constitutions of the funds as set out in note 6. The Group may earn performance fees from its retail funds and from some institutional mandates. Where a performance fee is applicable to an institutional client mandate, the base management fee will generally be lower than earned from mandates where no performance fee applies. The Group’s entitlement to performance fees for any given performance period is dependent on it outperforming certain hurdles, which may be index relative hurdles, return hurdles or a combination of both. Performance fees are generally subject to either a high water mark arrangement or a deficit clause, which ensures that fees are not earned more than once on the same performance. Performance fees are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income only when the Group’s entitlement to the fee becomes certain, which is at the end of the relevant performance period. Performance periods for the Group’s performance fee arrangements range from three months to three years. Refer to note 6 for further details on the management, administration fees and performance fees. 38 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (f) Revenue Recognition (continued) Consulting Fees Consulting fee income is recognised when the Group is entitled to it, which is determined by the terms and conditions of the contractual arrangement. Interest Income Interest income is recognised on an accruals basis using the effective interest rate method. Dividend/Distribution Income Dividend/distribution income is recognised on the applicable ex-dividend date. Net gain/loss on sale The gain or loss on disposal of assets is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset at the date of disposal and the net proceeds from disposal and is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year of disposal. If revenue is not received at balance date, it is included in the Statement of Financial Position as a receivable and carried at amortised cost. Expenses (g) Expenses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on an accruals basis. Directors’ fees (including superannuation) and related employment taxes are included as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as incurred. Information regarding the Directors’ remuneration is included in note 14 d)v). Income Tax (h) The income tax expense/benefit is the tax payable/receivable on the current year’s taxable income based on the current income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as items of income or expense are taxable or deductible in years other than the current year and in addition some items are never taxable or deductible. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Current tax and deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of balance date. 39 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (h) Income Tax (continued) Tax Consolidation - Australia Magellan Financial Group Limited (MFG) and its wholly owned Australian controlled entities formed a tax consolidated group for the purpose the tax consolidation legislation, which it formed on 1 July 2007. MFG is the head entity of the tax consolidated group. Under the tax consolidation legislation, the head entity and each controlled entity continues to account for its own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a standalone taxpayer in its own right. In addition, MFG also recognised the current tax assets or liabilities and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group. On forming a the tax consolidation group, each entity in the tax consolidated group entered into a tax sharing agreement, which limits the joint and several liability of the wholly owned entities in the case of a default of the head entity, MFG. The Company has also entered into a tax funding agreement under which the wholly owned entities fully compensate MFG for any current tax payable assumed and are compensated by MFG for any current tax receivable and deferred tax assets relating to unused tax losses or unused tax credits that are transferred to MFG under the tax consolidation legislation. The funding amount is determined by reference to the amounts recognised in the financial report. Assets and liabilities arising under the tax funding agreement with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as related party receivables or payables and these amounts are due upon demand from MFG. MFG may also require payment of interim funding amounts to assist with its obligations to pay tax instalments and the funding amounts are also recognised as related party receivables or payables. Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly owned tax consolidated entities. (i) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenue, expenses and assets (with the exception of receivables) are recognised net of the amount of GST, except when GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of that purchase or as an expense. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included in the Statement of Financial Position as receivable or payable. Cashflows are included in the Statement of Cashflows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows. 40 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Financial Assets and Liabilities (j) The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which financial assets were acquired. Designation is re-evaluated at each financial year end, but there are restrictions on reclassifying to other categories. Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at amortised cost. Classification of financial assets and liabilities depends on the purpose for which the assets and liabilities were acquired. The Group’s classifications are set out below: Financial asset/liability Cash Receivables Financial assets Loans to controlled entity Payables Classification Fair value through profit or loss Loans and receivables Loans and receivables Available-for-sale Held for trading Available-for-sale Valuation basis Fair value Amortised cost Amortised cost Fair value Fair value Fair value Refer to note 1(k) Refer to note 1(l) Refer to note 1(n) Refer to note 1(n) Refer to note 1(n) Refer to note 1(n)(i) Financial liability at amortised cost Amortised cost Refer to note 1(q) Derecognition of Financial Assets and Liabilities Financial assets and financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group no longer controls the contractual rights that comprise the financial instrument which is normally the case when the instrument is sold. (k) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash includes cash at bank and deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes. Term deposits with a term of 90 days or less from the date of inception are classified as cash equivalents. Refer also to note 1(n)(iii). Receivables (l) Receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any allowance for uncollectible amounts. In the case of the Group this is the original invoice amount rendered for management, administration and performance fees, less a provision for any uncollected debt. Collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis, and bad debts are written off by reducing the amount of the receivable in the Statement of Financial Position. A specific provision is made for doubtful debts where evidence exists that the amount will not be collected. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when there is evidence the amount will not be collected. An impairment provision is recognised when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the receivable. Financial difficulties of the debtor, default payments or debts more than 60 days overdue are considered objective evidence of impairment. The amount of the impairment loss is the receivable carrying amount compared to the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. 41 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (m) Derivatives Derivatives are categorised as held-for-trading financial assets and are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event, the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. Derivatives are recognised as assets when their fair value is positive and as liabilities when their fair value is negative. (n) Financial Assets The Company’s financial assets comprise and are classified as follows: Type of Financial asset Listed shares Subordinated bank notes Unlisted funds Unlisted shares Term deposits Classification Valuation basis Available-for-sale Available-for-sale Fair value Fair value Refer to note 1(n)(i) Refer to note 1(n)(i) Available-for-sale Available-for-sale Loans and receivable Fair value Fair value Amortised cost Refer to note 1(n)(i) Refer to note 1(n)(i) Refer to note 1(n)(iii) Held-for-Trading Financial Assets are short-term trading securities which are carried at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Available-for-sale Financial Assets i) Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designed in the financial asset category or not classified in any other financial asset category. Investments are designated as available-for-sale financial assets if they do not have fixed maturities, fixed or determinable payments and management intends to hold them for the medium-to-long term. These investments are carried at fair value. Loans to/from controlled entities and investments in controlled entities are also classified as available-for-sale financial assets. Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in the available-for-sale reserve in the Statement of the Financial Position and included in other comprehensive income until the investment is disposed or impaired. When available-for-sale financial assets are sold or impaired, cumulative gains recognised in the available-for-sale reserve are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Cumulative losses are recognised in the available-for-sale reserve to the extent that they reverse previously recorded gains, and when previously recorded gains have been reversed in full, any impairment loss below original cost (when significant and prolonged) is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. In assessing whether an available-for-sale asset is impaired, the Board will consider a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including the current market price of the asset, research performed internally by experienced equity analysts, and, where appropriate, external research that provides guidance on the long-term underlying value of the asset. Available-for-sale financial assets are classified as non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investments within 12 months of balance date. 42 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (n) Financial Assets (continued) Purchases and Sales of Financial Assets ii) All purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date, being the date that the Group or Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Purchases or sales of financial assets are purchases or sales under contracts that require delivery of the assets or settlement within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the market place. Payments and receipts relating to the purchase and sale of investment securities are classified as cash flows from operating activities, as movements in the fair value of these securities represent the Company’s main income generating activity. (iii) Loans and Receivable Term deposits with a term greater than 90 days from the date of inception are classified as loans and receivables. The deposits are initially recognised at fair value and then carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. They are classified as current assets where the term to maturity from balance date is less than 12 months and non-current assets where the term to maturity is greater than 12 months. Changes in the fair value of investments are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. When investments are disposed, the net gain and loss on sale is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on the date of sale. Impairment of Assets (o) All non-financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where an indicator or objective evidence of impairment exists, an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount is made. An impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Property, Plant and Equipment (p) Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to its acquisition. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset. Depreciation and Amortisation Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows: Furniture, fittings and leasehold improvements Computer equipment - over three to five years - over three to five years The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each balance date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down to recoverable amount where an indicator of impairment or objective evidence exists. An impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income where the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These are included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 43 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Payables (q) Payables comprise trade creditors and accrued expenses owing by the Group at balance date which are unpaid. Trade creditors represent liabilities for goods and services received by the Group prior to the end of the year end that remain unpaid at balance date. They are unsecured and usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Payables are recognised at amortised cost at the point where the Group becomes obliged to make payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. A dividend payable to shareholders of the Group is recognised for the amount of any dividend declared, determined or publicly recommended by the Directors on or before balance date but not paid at balance date. Employee Expenses and Entitlements (r) Wages, Salaries, Annual Leave and Long Service Leave Liabilities for wages and salaries (including non-monetary benefits) and annual leave are recognised in payables within accrued employee entitlements and are measured at the amounts to be expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The employee entitlement liability expected to be settled within 12 months from balance date is recognised in current liabilities. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rates paid or payable. Employee benefit on-costs are included in accrued employee entitlements in the Statement of Financial Position and employee costs in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the employee entitlements to which they relate are recognised in liabilities. Long Service Leave Liabilities for long service leave are recognised when employees reach a qualifying period of continuous service and are measured at the amount expected to be settled within 12 months from balance date. Any amount which is expected to be payable after 12 months from balance date is classified as a non-current liability and measured as the present value of expected future payments. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service and discounted using market yields at balance date on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match, a closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Bonus Plan A liability and an expense for bonuses are recognised where the Group is contractually obliged or where there is past practice that has created a constructive obligation. (s) Share Purchase Plan The Company has in place a Share Purchase Plan (SPP) for employees and Non-executive Directors (‘Participants’) to purchase shares in the Company (see Directors Report – Remuneration Report – Share Purchase Plan). The Company provides financial assistance to Participants, by way of an interest free loan. Loans to Participants are initially recognised at fair value, which is determined by discounting loans to their net present value using the risk-free interest rate at the time the loan is granted and an estimated repayment schedule. Following initial recognition, they are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, adjusted for changes in the projected repayment schedule. Changes in the carrying value of these are recognised in ‘interest 44 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (s) Share Purchase Plan (continued) income’ in profit or loss. The cost of providing the benefit to Participants is recognised as an employee benefits expense in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the expected life of the loan, in accordance with AASB 2: Share Based Payments. Details of the loans outstanding at balance date, and of the changes in carrying value of the loans and employee benefits expense recognised in profit or loss are provided in note 12. Leases (t) Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Net rental payments for operating leases are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. (u) Contributed Equity The Group’s ordinary shares, MFG 2016 Options and Class B Shares are classified as equity and recognised at the value of consideration received by the Group. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are recognised in equity as a deduction, net of tax. (v) Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit/(loss) after income tax expense for the year divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares on issue. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the basic earnings per share to take into account the effect of any costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of additional ordinary units that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. Refer to note 3 for further details. (w) Rounding of Amounts The Group is of a kind referred to in the Australian Securities & Investments Commission’s Class Order 98/0100 (as amended) and amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars in accordance with that Class Order, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar. (x) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements The preparation of the financial statements requires the Directors to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. The Directors base their judgements and estimates on historical experience and various other factors they believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable, the result of which forms the basis of the carrying values of assets and liabilities. As such, actual results could differ from those estimates. The The main area where a higher degree of judgement or complexity arises or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Group and Company’s financial statements is the valuation of unlisted investments. The valuation techniques used, which involves estimates, are discussed in detail at note 8. Apart from the above, none of the other Group and Company’s assets and liabilities are subject to significant judgment or complexity primarily due to the timing of when revenues or expenses are accrued and recognised. 45 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 2.

In-specie distribution iii) On 14 December 2012, the Company announced an in-specie distribution to MFG shareholders which involved distributing MFG’s holdings of shares and options in Magellan Flagship Fund Limited (MFF). This distribution, which was approved by shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting on 5 February 2013, involved distributing 50,109,307 MFF shares and 16,627,507 MFF options, approximately 3.29 MFF shares and 1.09 MFF options for every 10 MFG ordinary shares held by shareholders on the record date of 13 February 2013. The distribution was completed on 19 February 2013. The capital reduction amount was approximately $54,749,000 equating to $0.3589 per MFG ordinary share, which was determined using the average of the volume weighted average price (VWAP) for MFF shares of $1.0176 and MFF options of $0.2210 for the five trading days immediately preceding the distribution date. The in-specie distribution of the MFF shares and MFF options to MFG shareholders resulted in a realised gain of approximately $25,778,000 before income tax.

Refer to note 18 for further details. In-specie transfer to Magellan High Conviction Fund d) At 30 June 2013, the Group and Company held an investment in Magellan High Conviction Fund (MHCF) of $200,000. On 1 July 2013, the Company seeded a further investment in MHCF by way of an in-specie transfer of a portion of its investment in listed shares (set out in note 8 b)) and associated dividend receivables, and cash into MHCF. Had the in-specie transfer occurred on 30 June 2013, the in-specie seed investment would have resulted in a decrease in investments in listed shares by approximately $12,915,000 and an equal increase in investments in unlisted funds – MHCF. Fair Value Disclosures e) The Group classifies the fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities using the three level fair value hierarchy set out below, to reflect the source of valuation inputs used when determining the fair value:  Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value of these investments is based on the closing bid price for the security as quoted on the relevant exchange;  Level 2: valuation techniques using market observable inputs either directly or indirectly. The Group invests in unlisted trusts which in turn invest in liquid securities quoted on major stock exchanges. The fair value is estimated using the redemption price provided by the Investment Manager of the unlisted fund.  Level 3: valuation techniques using non-market observable inputs. The Group invests in unlisted trusts which typically invest in unlisted entities. The Group has an investment in an unlisted company. The fair value is based on a Director’s valuation. 56 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 8.

They are categorised as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy on the basis that the inputs into the redemption unit price are directly observable from published price quotations. (ii) Unlisted funds – Other Investments in unlisted funds – other comprise investments in private equity funds. As there is no active market for these units, the fair value is a Directors’ valuation that is determined with reference to the unit price of the fund. A discount is applied to the unit price, as determined by the fund’s investment manager, to reflect the illiquidity of the units and estimated impact of the investee companies periodic re-financing requirements. The Directors believe the estimated fair value, based on other unlisted funds’ valuations undertaken by the investment manager and the discount assumptions applied, are reasonable and appropriate. iii) Unlisted shares - Other Investments in unlisted shares – other comprises a shareholding in a unlisted funds management business. As there is no active market for the shares, the Directors’ have valued this investment at cost after giving consideration to the most current unaudited net asset position of the Company. There were no transfers in or out of level 3 during the year and a reconciliation of the fair value movements within level 3 for the year is shown below: Level 3 Opening balance – 1 July Capital calls Acquisitions – unlisted shares Return of capital Net change in fair value Closing Balance – 30 June Consolidated 2012 $ ’000 1,806 24 175 - - 2,005 2013 $ ’000 2,005 - - (146) (284) 1,575 Company 2013 $ ’000 2,005 - - (146) (284) 1,575 2012 $ ’000 1,806 24 175 - - 2,005 57 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 8.

Contributed Equity (continued) Terms and conditions Ordinary shares c) i) Fully paid ordinary shares entitle the holder to receive dividends declared and proceeds on winding up the Company in proportion to the number of and amounts paid up on shares held. Ordinary shares entitle their holder to one vote, either in person, or by proxy, at a meeting of the Company. MFG 2016 Options ii) MFG 2016 Options (‘options’) expire on 30 June 2016 but can be exercised during any two month period commencing two business days following the announcement of the Group’s full and half year results in each year prior to the expiry date, except for the final exercise period which commences on the date that is two business days after the release of the results for the half year to 31 December 2015 and ends on 30 June 2016. Upon exercise of the Option, the option holder is issued one new ordinary share in the Company. The in-specie distribution on 19 February 2013 (refer to note 4 iii) for further details) had the effect of reducing the exercise price of the MFG 2016 Options by $0.3589 per MFG Option. Accordingly, the adjusted exercise price of each option at 30 June 2013 is $2.6411 (June 2012: $3.00). Options are not entitled to dividends or distributions. Ordinary shares issued on exercise of the options rank equally with all other ordinary shares from the date of issue. An ordinary share issued on exercise of an option is only entitled to receive a dividend or distribution where the option was exercised and the ordinary share is issued on or before the record date for that distribution. Ordinary shares issued pursuant to the exercise of an option will not be issued until after the record date for any dividend or distribution payable in respect of the half year period immediately prior to the exercise period during which that option was exercised. The holder of an option may only participate in new issues of the Company if the holder exercises that option and becomes the holder of ordinary shares on or prior to the record date for the new issue of ordinary shares. Class B shares iii) The Class B Shares were issued to Mr Hamish Douglass with certain service conditions which were satisfied on 1 July 2012. Incorporating the effect of the in-specie distribution made to the Company’s shareholders on 19 February 2013, the Class B Shares will convert into the number of ordinary shares equal to 0.0637028 times the number of ordinary shares of the Company on issue on 21 November 2016 (up to a maximum of 170,000,000 ordinary shares). The conversion of the Class B Shares will occur on the first business day 21 November 2016. The maximum number of ordinary shares that will be issued on conversion of all Class B Shares is 10,829,476. Prior to the in-specie distribution, the conversion factor was 0.06 times and the maximum number of ordinary shares that would have been issued on conversion was 10,200,000. Mr Douglass holds 10,200,000 Class B Shares which at 30 June 2013 were entitled to convert into 9,732,697 ordinary shares of the Company on 21 November 2016. Based on the Company’s ordinary shares on issue and assuming all options are fully exercised as at 30 June 2013, the 10,200,000 Class B Shares would be entitled to convert to 10,227,770 ordinary shares being equal to 0.0637028 times 160,554,481 securities at 30 June 2013 (comprising 152,782,876 ordinary shares on issue and 7,771,605 unexercised options). 60 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 11.

The Class B shares have no entitlement to receive dividends and until the Class B Shares are converted into ordinary shares they confer no rights to participate in any bonus issue or subscribe for new securities in the Company unless the Directors determine otherwise in accordance with the Terms of Issue of the Class B Shares. Share Purchase Plan (SPP) 12. The Group has put in place a Share Purchase Plan (the ‘Plan’ or ‘SPP’) for its employees and Non- executive Directors (‘Participants’). The Plan provides assistance to Participants to invest in shares in the Company in order to more closely align the interests of Participants with the interests of the shareholders of the Group. At 30 June 2013, 4,767,558 ordinary shares were held by the Participants under the SPP (June 2012: 6,714,210). Employees are invited to apply for a specified number of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company. Subject to the Listing Rules, the Directors have overall discretion in relation to the Plan and may vary the rules. The Directors have currently determined that the number of Company shares that may be offered is limited to: i) shares with a market value equal to a multiple of one times the employee’s after-tax bonus for the financial year (ending 30 June) prior to the financial year in which the offer is made; and ii) such further number of shares as requested and approved by the Board, subject to:  where the total amount of the financial assistance being provided to an employee participant will exceed $750,000 or will exceed three times the amount of an employee participant’s annual base salary inclusive of superannuation, the prior approval of the Board is required; and  the maximum amount of financial assistance that may be provided by the Company to an individual employee is $1,000,000. and, in each case: iii) subject to a maximum of $750,000 worth of shares per employee in each financial year, other than in the case of a new employee where the Board may resolve, in its absolute discretion, to initially offer additional shares to the new employee; and iv) the aggregate maximum number of shares issued under each offer under the Plan will not exceed 5% of the total number of shares on issue at the time of the offer provided that the Company may issue additional Company shares in any subsequent offer up to, but not exceeding, the number of shares that it has bought back in the period since the last offer of shares under the Plan. No performance hurdles attach to the invitation to participate in, or the issue of shares under, the Plan. The Directors can resolve to vary the timing of these invitations. The issue price for the shares is the fair market value of the shares at the offer date. This is calculated using the volume weighted average price of traded shares in the 5 business days prior to the offer date. Participants may be required to make an upfront contribution of up to 25% of the issue price at the time of issue. The remaining amount of the issue price is funded by way of a full recourse interest free loan from the Company. 61 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 12. Share Purchase Plan (SPP) (continued) Participants are required to apply an amount equal to 25% of their after tax annual bonus each year to repay the loan until the loan has been fully repaid. The maximum term of the loan for employee participants is 10 years. Any outstanding balance at the end of 10 years must be repaid by the employee. Although employees are not entitled to repay their loan early, the Board may from time to time permit an early repayment under certain circumstances. Loans to Participants under the Plan are secured on the shares issued to that Participant. The shares are not transferable until the loan is fully paid. Once the loan has been fully repaid, the shares issued under the Plan are freely transferable. Dividends are payable on the shares issued under the Plan on the same basis as all other issued fully paid ordinary shares, and the amount of the dividends are applied to repay the loan until the loan has been fully repaid. The shares issued under the Plan have the same rights to participate in any entitlements or bonus issues and otherwise rank equally with all other issued ordinary shares. Upon request from the Company, the outstanding loan amount must be repaid in full immediately without further demand or notice upon the earliest of: i) any breach by the Participant of the Share Purchase Plan Rules (the ‘Plan Rules’) where the breach is not remedied within 7 days of the Company's notice to the Participant to do so; or ii) an application being made to a court for an order, or an order being made, that the Participant be made bankrupt (or any similar event in any jurisdiction as determined by the Board in its discretion). If a Participant ceases to be an employee whilst a loan to that Participant is outstanding, the Participant must: i) repay the total amount owing under the loan within 3 months (or, in the event that a Participant has died, within 6 months), or such longer period determined by the Board in its discretion, of the participant ceasing to be an employee and, upon payment of such amount the holding lock and any security over the shares issued under the Plan will be released and the Participant shall be entitled to retain his or her shares issued under the Plan; or ii) require the shares issued under the Plan to be bought back or sold by the Company and must pay to the Company the balance (if any) of the total amount owing outstanding under the loan after the application of the proceeds of sale. The carrying value of loans outstanding at balance date was: Current: due within 1 year Non-current: due later than 1 year and within 10 years 2012 Consolidated 2013 Company 2013 2012 $ ’000 $ ’000 $ ’000 $ ’000 1,658 1,489 2,835 4,661 4,324 6,319 1,658 4,661 6,319 1,489 2,835 4,324 During the year, participants disposed of 284,893 ordinary shares under the SPP, and from these disposals, proceeds of $1,708,000 were applied directly to participants loans.

Capital and Financial Risk Management Financial Risk Management a) The activities of the Group and the Company expose it to various types of risks, both direct and indirectly: price risk, credit risk, currency risk and liquidity risk. Exposure to risk occurs through the impact on the Group’s and the Company’s net profit and total equity arising from:  changes in the value of the Group’s and the Company’s investment portfolios and changes in other financial assets and liabilities; and the effect of market foreign exchange rate movements on the Group’s funds under management and the consequent impact on the management and performance fees earned.  The Group’s investment assets comprise strategic investments in:  unlisted funds of which MAM, a wholly owned entity of the Group, is the Responsible Entity and Investment Manager; a direct portfolio of investments; and two unlisted United States institutional mutual funds, being the Frontegra MFG funds, of which MAM is the Investment Manager.   The investment portfolios of the unlisted funds and the Frontegra MFG funds are managed on a daily basis by the Investment Manager in accordance with the investment objectives and mandates of those funds. Further details of the risk management objectives and policies of those entities can be found in the annual report of the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) of the Magellan unlisted funds, and the prospectuses of the Frontegra MFG funds. 64 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 13. Capital and Financial Risk Management Capital Management b) The Group and the Company’s approach to capital management remained unchanged during the year, which was to ensure that it continues as a going concern, it has sufficient cash flow to meet its operating requirements, it is able to support the payment of dividends to shareholders in accordance with the Group’s dividend policy, and it retains the flexibility to retain capital if required for future business expansion. The Group and the Company’s capital consists entirely of shareholder equity. The Group and the Company has no external net borrowings at 30 June 2013. The Directors believe that the Group’s core business, funds management, is scalable over time and the funds under management should continue to grow without the need to make material additional capital investment into the business. A controlled entity of the Company, Magellan Asset Management Limited (MAM) is subject to regulatory financial requirements by virtue of it holding an Australian Financial Services License (AFSL). These regulatory requirements, which are set out by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC), were amended for Responsible Entities of Registered Managed Investment Schemes from 1 November 2012. From this date to the period ended 30 June 2013, MAM maintained required net tangible assets of $5,000,000 and satisfied the liquidity requirements of cash and cash equivalents of at least $2,500,000 (equal to 50% of required net tangible assets) and liquid assets of at least $5,000,000 (equal to the amount of required net tangible assets). The Directors of MAM determined on 2 November 2012 that notwithstanding the liquidity requirements of the AFSL, MAM would hold both a greater amount of cash and cash equivalents, being at least $5,000,000 and a greater amount of liquid assets, being at least $10,000,000. From 1 July 2013, the required net tangible assets, will be determined as 10% of MAM’s average revenues in accordance with ASIC Regulatory Guide 166. Liquidity Risk c) Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group and the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities on the due date or will be forced to sell financial assets at a value which is less than they are worth. The Group and the Company manage liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash reserves to cover its liabilities. On 20 February 2013, the Board of the Company determined that the Company would maintain a minimum amount of $10,000,000 in cash and equivalents and a minimum amount of liquid assets equal to 0.5% of the Group’s funds under management subject to a maximum amount of $100 million. The amounts held by the Company are in addition to the cash and cash equivalent and liquid asset amounts maintained by its controlled entity, MAM. As at 30 June 2013, the Group had an obligation to settle trade creditors and other payables of $17,842,000 (June 2012: $4,465,000) within 30 days. The Group had cash (including term deposits maturing within 30 days) of $38,096,000 (June 2012: $1,052,000) and a further $35,181,000 (June 2012: $9,638,000) of receivables and $14,685,000 of term deposits which mature greater than 90 days (June 2012: $30,565,000) to cover these liabilities. In addition, the Group reported current assets of $89,743,000 and current liabilities of $34,681,000 resulting in a net current asset surplus of $55,062,000. Accordingly the Group has sufficient liquid funds and current assets to meet its current liabilities. 65 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 13. Capital and Financial Risk Management (continued) c) Liquidity Risk (continued) Maturities of financial liabilities At 30 June 2013, the Group’s financial liabilities comprise trade creditors and payables which mature in 1 year or less (June 2012: 1 year or less). Price Risk d) Price risk is the risk that the value of the Group and Company’s direct and indirect investments in equities will increase or decrease as a result of changes in market prices, caused by factors specific to the individual stock or the market as a whole. Price risk exposure arises from the Group’s and the Company’s investments in listed equities, unlisted Magellan funds and the Frontegra MFG funds, and from the Group’s entitlement to investment management and performance fees on its funds under management. All of the Group and Company’s investments are carried at fair value with changes arising from held-for-trading investments reflected in profit or loss, and changes arising from available-for-sale investments reflected in other comprehensive income. Over the past 10 years, the annual movement in the MSCI Total Return Net World Index varied between +40% and -21% (in AUD) and +31% and -29% (in USD). The past performance of markets is not always a reliable guide to future performance, and the Company’s investment portfolio does not attempt to mirror the global indices, but this very wide range of historic movements in the indices provides an indication of the magnitude of equity price movements that might reasonably occur within the portfolio over a 12 month period. The impact of equity price movements, expressed in percentage terms, on the net profit reported by the Company, is linear. Impact arising from the Group’s and Company’s own investments Each incremental increase of 5% in the market prices of the Group’s and the Company’s investments held at balance date would have had the following impact on net profit and equity: Impact on net profit for the year Impact on available-for-sale reserve, net of tax Total impact on net profit and equity Consolidated 2012 $ ’000 2013 $ ’000 - 3,517 3,517 - 3,766 3,766 Company 2013 2012 $ ’000 $ ’000 - 3,517 3,517 - 3,766 3,766 Assumptions and explanatory notes i) the Group and the Company hold an investment in an unlisted fund that invests in unlisted equities. The fair value of this fund is determined by a Director’s valuation. The underlying values of the unlisted equities are determined by the fund’s investment manager with reference to the projected cash flows of those businesses, which may or may not be correlated with changes in market prices of listed equities. No assessment has been made of the impact of changes in market prices on the fair value of that fund. ii) a decrease of 5% in the market prices of the Group’s and the Company’s investments held at balance date would have an equal and opposite effect to the changes disclosed above. iii) the Group and the Company recognises impairment losses on available-for-sale investments in accordance with the accounting policy disclosed in note 1(n). For the purposes of the 66 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 13. Capital and Financial Risk Management (continued) Price Risk (continued) d) iv) sensitivity disclosed above, it has been assumed that a 5% change in market prices would have no impact on the assessment of whether individual assets are impaired. Impact arising on entitlements to management and performance fees Management fees The Group earns management fees on funds under management, which are based on a percentage of the value of the clients’ and the funds’ portfolios. Management fees earned from funds under management will be impacted by movements in the underlying prices in local currency, exchange rate movements, or a combination of both. Each incremental increase of 5% in the average value of funds under management of the Group during the years ended 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012 would have increased the base management fees recognised in net profit and equity as follows: Consolidated Company 2013 $ ’000 2012 $ ’000 2013 2012 $ ’000 $ ’000 Impact on net profit for the year Total impact on net profit and equity 1,959 1,959 769 769 - - - - Assumptions and explanatory notes i) a decrease of 5% in the average value of funds under management of the Group would have an equal and opposite effect to the changes disclosed above. changes in market prices may impact the inflows to, and outflows from, the Group’s funds under management. This impact has not been estimated. ii) Performance fees The Group may earn performance fees from its funds and from some institutional client mandates to which it provides investment management services. Where a performance fee is applicable to an institutional client mandate, the base management fee will generally be lower than that earned from mandates where no performance fee applies. The Company’s entitlement to performance fees for any given performance period is dependent on it outperforming certain hurdles, which may be index relative hurdles, return hurdles or a combination of both. Performance fees are generally subject to either a high water mark arrangement or a deficit clause, which ensures that fees are not earned more than once on the same performance. These fees also accrue over different calculation periods, ranging from three months to three years. The fees recognised in follows: the Comprehensive characterised Statement Income are as of Consolidated Company Based on performance relative to a market index Based on performance relative to a return hurdle Based on performance relative to both a market index and a return hurdle Total performance fees 67 2013 $ ’000 5,702 4,569 2012 $ ’000 1,233 154 2013 2012 $ ’000 $ ’000 - - - - 18,178 28,449 7,679 9,066 - - - - MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 13. Capital and Financial Risk Management (continued) Currency Risk e) Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group and the Company has direct exposure to currency risk on foreign currency denominated: - - - investments designated as available for sale (refer note 8); cash balances and term deposits (refer note 15 c) and 8 a); and payables and receivables, such as income receivable from foreign investments, outstanding settlements on purchase or sale of foreign investments and management and performance fees invoiced in foreign currency (refer note 7 and 10). At 30 June 2013 had the Australian dollar strengthened by 10% relative to each currency to which the Group and Company had significant exposure, with all other variables held constant, the impact on the Group and Company’s equity and net profit would have been: Consolidated Assets denominated in: US dollars Euro Swiss francs Hong Kong dollars Company US dollars Euro Swiss francs British pounds Hong Kong dollars Increase / (decrease) in net profit 2013 $ ’000 2012 $ ’000 (1,251) (10) (2) - (1,110) (10) (2) - - (8) - - - (8) - - - - Increase / (decrease) in equity 2013 $ ’000 (2,663) (52) (67) - (2,663) (52) (67) (151) - 2012 $ ’000 (1,399) (12) (131) (6) (1,399) (12) (131) (131) (6) A decrease of 10% in the Australian dollar relative to each currency would have an opposite impact. The Group and Company also has indirect exposure to foreign currency via its investments in unlisted funds. The unlisted funds are denominated in Australian dollars and the Frontegra MFG funds are US dollar denominated. The underlying investment portfolios of these funds comprise entities predominantly denominated in foreign currencies, and with extensive operating exposure to global currency fluctuations which will drive portfolio values. Changes in their fair value are therefore influenced by movements in currencies. The sensitivity analysis disclosed above disregards the impact on the foreign currency movement on the underlying portfolios. The Group’s management and performance fees are also indirectly exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency where the management and performance fees earned from funds under management are subject to adverse movements in the exchange rate of the Australian dollar relative to foreign currencies. For the year ended 30 June 2013, approximately 93% of the Group’s management, administration and performance fee revenues were indirectly exposed to movements in the Australian dollar relative to other currencies (June 2012: 82%). 68 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 13. Capital and Financial Risk Management (continued) Interest Rate Risk f) Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Group and Company’s exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to cash and cash equivalents and also term deposits. Substantially all of the Group and Company’s holdings of cash and cash equivalents are held with major Australian banks. Term deposits are of short duration and their fair value would not be materially affected by changes in interest rates. Sensitivity analysis Based on the cash and cash equivalents held by the Group and the Company at balance date, the sensitivity on the Group and the Company’s net profit and equity of a decrease of 50 basis points in floating interest rates, assuming all other variable remain constant is: Increase in net profit and equity Consolidated Company 2013 $ ’000 184 2012 $ ’000 109 2013 $ ’000 126 2012 $ ’000 44 An increase of 50 basis points in floating rate interest rates would have an equal but opposite effect on interest income and net profit. Credit Risk g) Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties failed to perform as contracted. Market prices generally incorporate credit assessments into valuations and risk of loss is implicitly provided for in the carrying value of financial assets and liabilities when valued at fair value. The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is therefore the carrying amount of financial assets recognised in the Statement of Financial Position. The Group and Company minimises concentrations of credit risk by ensuring cash balances, term deposits and the listed subordinated notes are held with and managed by counterparties that are reputable financial intermediaries with acceptable credit ratings determined by a recognised rating agency. In addition, credit limits are reviewed by management and may be updated throughout the year. During the year ended 30 June 2013, the Group and Company held cash and term deposits with Australian banks and the credit quality of these counterparties at 30 June 2013 are rated by Standard & Poor’s as being AA-, and by Moody’s as being Aa2 (AA and Aa2 respectively at 30 June 2012). The Group and Company also manages credit risk by regularly monitoring loans and receivable balances throughout the year. A provision for doubtful debts is made where collection is deemed uncertain. At 30 June 2013, the provision for doubtful debts was nil (June 2012: nil). At 30 June 2013 the Group and the Company also had credit exposure to the participants with loans under the share purchase plan. At 30 June 2013, the outstanding balance on the loans totalled $4,324,000 (June 2012: $6,319,000). MFG shares valued at $46,000,000 (June 2012: $14,400,000) were held as security for these loans. The loans were made to the Group’s employees and certain Non-executive Directors of the Company on a full recourse basis.

(B) The funds were established on 28 June 2013 The credit quality of NT’s senior debt is rated, as at 30 June 2013, by Standard and Poors as AA- and by Moody’s as Aa3 (AA- and Aa3 respectively at 30 June 2012). The Company in its capacity as Trustee of the Magellan Core Infrastructure Fund (MCIF) has appointed J.P. Morgan Chase N.A (JPM) as MCIF’s custodian. The credit quality of JPM’s senior debt is rated, as at 30 June 2013, by Standard and Poors as AA- and by Moody’s as Aa3 (AA- and Aa3 respectively at 30 June 2012). In acting as custodians, NT and JPM are required to comply with the relevant provisions of the Corporations Act, applicable ASIC regulatory guides and class orders relating to registered managed investment scheme property arrangements with custodians. At 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012, the Group and Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount of the financial assets recognised in the Statements of Financial Position. Ageing analysis of receivables At 30 June 2013, all of the Group’s and Company’s receivables are due within 0 to 30 days (June 2012: 0 to 30 days). No amounts are impaired or past due at 30 June 2013 or 30 June 2012. 70 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 14.

Events Subsequent to Balance Date On 28 June 2013, the Group launched the following three new funds: o Magellan Infrastructure Fund (Unhedged) (MIFU), a unit trust that invests in a focussed global portfolio of listed infrastructure investments; Magellan High Conviction Fund (MHCF), a unit trust that invests in a concentrated portfolio of global equities; and o Magellan Global Fund (Hedged) (MGFH), a unit trust that invests in a focussed portfolio o of global equities. The Company initially seeded the new Funds by way of a small cash investment and an in-specie transfer for the Magellan High Conviction Fund, which is discussed further at note 8 d). These funds were open to external investors from 1 July 2013 and for the period to 13 August 2013 MIFU, MHCF and MGFH have received approximately $1,360,000, $42,241,000 and $686,900 of new fund inflows from external investors respectively. On 27 July 2013, the Company invested a further $4,250,000 into the Magellan High Conviction Fund. On 26 July 2013, ASIC consented to the repayment of the $1,150,000 loan the Company provided to its wholly owned entity, Magellan Asset Management Limited (MAM). MAM repaid the loan in full on 2 August 2013 (refer to note 14c)i) for further details). On 31 July 2013, MAM, a member of the Group’s tax consolidated group was declared an Offshore Banking Unit (OBU) by the Assistant Treasurer of Australia in the Commonwealth of Australia Government Notices Gazette. Under the current legislation, assessable offshore banking (OB) income derived from defined OB funds management and advisory activities provided to clients outside of Australia and New Zealand, net of costs, will be subject to a concessional tax rate of 10%. Revenues earned from non-resident clients that are invested in the Group’s global equities strategy meet the current definition of assessable OB income. On 8 November 2012, MAM received authorisation from the Central Bank of Ireland to act as a promoter and investment manager to Irish authorised collective investment schemes. In August 2013, MFG Investment Fund plc, a company incorporated in Ireland, sought approval by the Central Bank of Ireland to be authorised under the European Communities (Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (UCITS)) Regulations, and appoint MAM as promoter and investment manager to a proposed initial sub-fund MFG Global Fund. MFG Global Fund will offer the Group’s global equities strategy to global institutional clients. At the time of this report, MFGIF has not received confirmation of its authorisation from the Central Bank of Ireland. Other than the above, the Directors are not aware of any other matter or circumstance not otherwise dealt with in this report that has significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the result of those operations or the state of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial years. 78 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED DIRECTORS DECLARATION FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 In accordance with a resolution of the Directors of Magellan Financial Group Limited, I state that: In the opinion of the Directors: (a) the financial statements, notes and the additional disclosures included in the Directors Report designated as audited, of the Company and of the Consolidated Entity are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: (i) giving a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company and the Consolidated Entity as at 30 June 2013 and of their performance for the year ended on that date; and (ii) complying with Australian Accounting , International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as disclosed in Note 1 and Corporations Regulations 2001; and (b) there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company and Consolidated Entity will be able to pay their debts as and when they become due and payable. This declaration has been made after receiving the declarations required to be made to the directors in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act 2001 for the financial year ending 30 June 2013. On behalf of the Board Hamish M Douglass Director Sydney, 16 August 2013 79 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 80 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 81 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT Overview Magellan Financial Group Limited (MFG or Group) (ASX:MFG) is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). The Group, as a listed entity, must comply with the Corporations Act 2001(Cth) (the Act), the ASX Listing Rules and other Australian and international laws. ASX Listing Rules require the Group to report against the current version of the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (ASX Recommendations). Where, after due deliberation, the Group's corporate governance practices differs from an ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendation, the Group will set out the reasons for the difference. The website contains copies of charters and policies mentioned in this document. Where one of MFG’s controlled entities have adopted their own policies and practices to deal with specific matters relevant to their business, they align to this Statement. 1. Governance Structures and Processes 1.1 Role and Responsibilities of the Board The Board is responsible for the overall operation and stewardship of the Group and is responsible for its overall success and long-term growth and corporate governance. The Board has approved a formal Charter which contains the Board’s role, powers, duties and functions. The Charter is reviewed regularly, or whenever significant change occurs, to remain relevant to the Group and its activities. The Board has retained all authority required by law and has specifically reserved the following powers:       Appointment and removal of the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and the Company Secretary; Establishing Committees of the Board and, in relation to each Committee, appointing the members and the Chairman, setting Committee charters and delegating authority to relevant Committees; Assessing the performance of the Board and individual Directors and determining the remuneration of Directors and Committee members; Assessing the Group’s overall performance and approving the reports provided to shareholders; Providing strategic advice and direction to the Group’s senior management; and Approval and oversight of the risk management and compliance framework and the effective design and operation of its relevant controls, polices and processes. 1.2 Board Composition The Group’s Constitution provides that there must be a minimum of three and a maximum of ten Directors. The Board currently comprises five (5) Directors, three (3) of whom are independent non-executive Directors. The Board actively seeks to maintain a balance of skills, knowledge and experience to direct and oversee the activities of the Group. Details of each Director’s background date of appointment and attendance at Board meetings are set out in the Directors’ Report. Director remuneration is set out in the Remuneration Report. The Board considers that collectively the Directors have an appropriate range of skills, experience and expertise to understand and competently deal with current and emerging business issues and effectively monitor and review the performance of the Group and exercise independent judgment. 82 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT Chairman 1.3 The Chairman of the Board, Mr Chris Mackay, is an executive Director and a resident Australian citizen. The Board has a different view to ASX Recommendation 2.4 of the need for the Chair to be independent and considers that the Chairman’s experience and proven leadership is beneficial as the primary link between management and the Board. More information about the Chairman’s responsibilities is contained in the Group’s Board Charter. 1.4 Director Independence The Board comprises a majority of independent non-executive Directors. An independent non- executive Director is a non-executive Director who is independent of the Group and free of any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with, or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with, the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgment. In making this determination, the Board has reviewed and assessed previous and current relationships. The Board believes that Directors have sufficient time to discharge their responsibilities and individual Director’s other commitments are shown in the Directors’ Report. 1.5 Board Audit and Risk Committee The Board has established a Board Audit and Risk Committee. The Committee has been established under a separate Charter which is available on the Group’s website. The Charter contains the delegated role, responsibilities, functions and powers of the Committee and is reviewed regularly, or whenever significant change occurs. The Committee allows the Board to devote and focus time and effort that may not be possible at a wider Board meeting. The Board appointed a majority of non-executive Directors to the Committee with due regard to the collective and individual skills, experience and expertise of the Directors. The Board is aware that ASX Recommendation 4.2 requests all members of the Committee be non-executive but is of the opinion that the appointment of one executive director facilitates transparent and direct accountability to the Committee and the Board. The Chairman of the Committee is an independent, non-executive Director who is a resident of Australia and not the Chairman of the Board. The role of the Committee is to oversee the Group’s responsibilities relating to financial reporting, relevant statutory requirements, internal controls, risk management functions and audit. Full details are in the Committee Charter which is available on the Group’s website. The Committee will meet at minimum, four times each year. The Chairman of the Committee will report to the Board in respect of each Committee meeting. During the year, in accordance with the Committee’s Charter, the Committee conducts an appraisal of the performance of the Committee’s members and the achievement of the Committee’s objectives. 1.6 Access to Information Directors have access to any information they consider necessary to fulfil their responsibilities and to exercise independent judgment when making decisions. Directors may obtain independent professional advice at the Group’s expense, subject to making a request to, and obtaining the prior authorisation of, the Chairman of the Board. Where the Chairman of the Board wishes to obtain independent professional advice, he or she is required to make a request to, and obtain the prior authorisation of, the Chairman of the Board Audit and Risk Committee. 83 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 1.7 Board Meetings The Chairman, in conjunction with the Company Secretary, sets the agenda for the meeting. Any Director may request an item to be raised in addition to the standing items which typically include minutes and matters arising, periodic reviews, standing reports and specific proposals. Board papers are sent in combinations of hard and electronic copy. At each meeting there is an opportunity for the Board to meet and discuss matters without the executive directors and members of management present. Directors are free to request and access any information they feel is necessary to take fully-informed, risk-aware decisions. 1.8 Appointment, Induction, Succession Planning and Retirement of Directors and Executives The Board regularly reviews its skills, expertise and composition. The Board recognises ASX Recommendation 2.4 on creating a Nominations Committee. After due consideration the Board has retained both the responsibility for succession planning and renewal as well as any related decisions. The Board is aware of the importance of Board renewal and takes each Director’s tenure into account when reviewing its mix of skills, previous and current relationships, competencies, time commitments, expertise and experience. The Board has decided that a Director must retire from office no later than the later of the third annual general meeting of the Group or three years following the Director’s last election or appointment. Upon appointment to the Board, Directors are required to sign a letter which sets out the terms of and conditions of their appointment. Directors are provided with induction training similar to that provided to senior executives. Directors are expected to maintain the skills and knowledge required to discharge their obligations. The Group has an induction program in place for all of its new employees, including senior executives. As part of this induction program, new senior executives will receive briefings on the Group’s business and its policies and procedures. These briefings will focus on the core governance and corporate structures as well as key operational, regulatory, risk and compliance issues that are of relevance to the Group. Performance Evaluation of Directors and Senior Executives 1.9 Under the Board’s Charter, the Board will conduct a review of its collective performance and the performance of its Directors every two years. This review will consider the Board’s role, the processes of the Board and its Committees as well as the collective and individual performance of the Board and each Director. The review is conducted through a combination of written and verbal communications and is discussed by the whole Board. An individual Director’s performance is considered when the Board determines whether or not to support the Director for re-election. The Chief Executive Officer undertakes annual performance reviews of each member of the senior executive team. Fair and Responsible Decision-Making Conflicts of Interest 2. 2.1 The Board has adopted procedures to recognise, manage and monitor actual or perceived conflicts of interest. Directors are required to disclose events or circumstances that may affect, or may be perceived to affect, their ability to exercise independent judgement. Where a Director has an actual or perceived conflict of interest, they must leave the meeting and take no part in any discussion or decision-making regarding that matter. 84 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT Code of Conduct 2.2 The Group has a Corporate Code of Conduct that applies to all Directors and employees of the Group. The Board expects all Directors and employees to comply with the Code and failure to comply with the Code is a serious matter and will be investigated. The purpose of this Code is to:   Articulate the high standards of honest, ethical and law-abiding behaviour that is expected of Directors and employees of the Group; Encourage the observance of those standards so as to protect and promote the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders;  Guide Directors and employees of the Group as to the practices thought necessary to maintain  confidence in the Group’s integrity; and Explain the responsibilities and accountabilities of Directors and employees of the Group to report and investigate reports of unethical practices. A copy of the Corporate Code of Conduct is available on the website. Trading Policy 2.3 The Group has a Trading Policy that sets out the circumstances in which the Group’s Directors and employees may trade in the Group’s securities. The Policy states the Board’s expected behaviours for Directors and employees who wish to trade in the Group’s securities. The Trading Policy prohibits Directors from dealing when they are in possession of price-sensitive information that is not generally available to the market and also places restrictions and notification requirements, including the imposition of blackout periods, trading windows and the need to obtain pre-trade approval. The Trading Policy aligns to the ASX Listing Rules and relevant guidelines. A copy of the Group’s Trading Policy has been lodged with the Australian Securities Exchange(ASX) and is available on the Group’s website. 2.4 Diversity The Group recognises the value of attracting and retaining employees with different backgrounds, knowledge, experience and abilities. The Group’s policy is to recruit and manage on the basis of competence and performance regardless of age, race, gender, nationality, beliefs, sexuality, physical ability or cultural background. The Board annually reviews the measurable objectives it has set for to achieve improvement in the diversity of employees. The measurable objectives are consistent with those identified last year to allow for accurate and cumulative measurement. Position Objective Board of Directors At least one-third of independent directors to be female(A) Senior Management Increase the representation of women in senior management roles Group Increase the overall percentage of women employed Goal 33.33% As at 30 June 2013 33.33% Comparison Performance 12.70%(B) Achieved 40.00% 46.67% 10.10%(B) Achieved 40.00% 36.84% 36.20%(C) In Progress (A) This acknowledges that the two founders and executive directors are male and it is not envisaged their Board positions will change in the foreseeable future (B) Benchmark averages have been taken from the 2012 Australian Census of Women in Leadership and relate to the ASX200 (C) Workplace Gender Equality Agency: ABS (2013) Labour Force, Australia, Detailed, Quarterly, cat no 6291.0.55.003 The Group has adopted a Diversity Policy, a copy of which is available on the Group’s website. 85 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 2.5 Remuneration Committee ASX Recommendation 8.1 provides that the Board should establish a Remuneration Committee. The Board has determined that remuneration is a decision reserved for the entire Board. Remuneration for the independent non-executive Directors is set at market rates commensurate with their responsibilities. Remuneration for employees is approved by the Board. Further information is provided in the Remuneration Report. Financial Reporting Independent external audit and assurance 3. 3.1 The Group’s independent external auditor is Ernst & Young. The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for recommending to the Board the appointment and removal of the external auditor. The independence and effectiveness of the external auditor is reviewed regularly. The Committee is also responsible for ensuring that the external audit engagement partners are rotated in accordance with relevant statutory requirements. The external auditors regularly attend the Committee’s meetings and when the Group’s Financial Statements are being considered or where relevant items are on the Committee’s agenda. The Group’s external auditors attend the Group’s Annual General Meeting and are available to answer questions from shareholders in relation to the conduct of the audit, the Audit Report, the accounting policies adopted by the Group’s in preparing the Financial Statements and the independence of the auditors. In respect of the year ending 30 June 2013 the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer have made the following certifications to the Board:   The Group’s Financial Statements and notes applicable thereto represent a true and fair view of its financial position and performance and comply with the requirements of the Accounting Standards, Corporations Act and Corporations Regulations; and The risk management and internal compliance and control systems are sound, appropriate, operating efficiently and effectively managing the Group’s material business risks. Shareholders Communication to Shareholders 4. 4.1 The Board recognises that shareholders, as the ultimate owners of the Group, are entitled to accurate, timely and relevant information and should be fully informed of material matters that affect the Group’s position and prospects. Any prospective investors should be able to make informed investment decisions regarding the Group. It seeks to accomplish this through:  The release of the Group’s Half Year Results in February each year;  The release of the Group’s Full Year Results and Annual Report in August each year;  The release of the Chief Executive Officer’s Annual Letter to Shareholders each year;  The release of the Chairman’s and Chief Executive Officer’s addresses to the Annual General Meeting; and  The posting of significant information on the Group’s website promptly after it is disclosed to the market. All information is available on the Group’s website after it has been disclosed to the ASX. 86 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT Continuous Disclosure Policy 4.2 The Board has adopted a Continuous Disclosure Policy that assists with clear and effective communication with shareholders by ensuring:    The Group as a minimum complies with its continuous disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules; The Group provides shareholders and the market with timely, direct and equal access to information issued by it; and That information which is not generally available and which may have a material effect on the price or value of the Group’s securities be identified and appropriately considered by the Directors for disclosure to the market. The Continuous Disclosure Policy is available on the website. Shareholder Meetings 4.3 The Group recognises the importance of shareholder interaction and supports the principle of participation. The Group holds its Annual General Meeting in October and a copy of the notice of Annual General Meeting is posted on the Group’s website and mailed to shareholders. The Board encourages shareholders to attend the Annual General Meeting or to appoint a proxy to vote on their behalf if they are unable to attend. The formal addresses by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at the Annual General Meeting are disclosed to the market. The Group’s external auditor will attend any Annual General Meeting and will be available to answer questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and contents of the Auditor’s Report. Risk Management and Compliance 5. 5.1 Risk Management Responsibility The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving the risk management framework and associated policies and practices provided of the Group. The Board, through the Audit and Risk Committee, is responsible for ensuring that:       The risk profile of the Group is accurate; An effective system of risk management and internal controls has been adopted and implemented; There are adequate policies for the oversight and management risks to the Group; Incidents have been identified, reported, escalated and resolved; There are effective systems in place to identify, assess, monitor and manage the risks of the Group and to identify material changes to the Group’s risk profile; and Arrangements are adequate for monitoring compliance with laws and regulations applicable to the Group. 5.2 Risk Management System The Group understands that risk is inherent in its operations and that risk affects the Group’s ability to meet its business objectives. The Group manages risk in an active manner to benefit from opportunities and minimise negative impacts. The Group recognises that risk management and compliance functions are only effective when a robust and transparent corporate governance framework exists and is actively supported at all levels of the organisation. 87 MAGELLAN FINANCIAL GROUP LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 5.2 Risk Management System (continued) The Board has a strong, documented commitment to corporate governance that goes beyond the absolute legal requirements to always act in the best interests of investors. The Board has a proven and clearly communicated commitment to a risk aware and compliant culture. The Board expects all staff to actively identify and report risks. The Board reviews and approves the Risk Management Statement annually or whenever significant change occurs. The Risk Management Statement is a clear, effective and robust structure with defined, transparent and consistent lines of responsibility. Identified senior executives are accountable and responsible for designing and consistently implementing and maintaining policies, processes and systems for managing risk across the Group, consistent with risk capacity and risk appetite. Notwithstanding the above, the Group recognises that risk events and incidents will take place that realise impacts. In those circumstances, the Group will take aggressive and comprehensive action to address the incidents, and establish new processes and controls to minimise the chance of reoccurrence.
