Investment Manager's Comment:
A 0.1% rise in the NZSX All Index, and an unchanged Australian All Ords
Index in February belied what was a busy month for company results. New Zealand
company results generally confirmed that the economic climate has become
increasingly challenging for profitability. However, with the New Zealand
dollar now weakening and interest rates looking as though they have peaked,
there are grounds for believing that conditions for many companies should
improve as the year progresses.
Our net asset value rose by 2.6% over the month, despite a 5% fall in the share
price of one of the larger holdings, Auckland International Airport, following
a disappointing set of results. The main contributors to the rise in the net
asset value were companies' shares that rallied on the back of solid results,
including Mainfreight (+16.7%) and Fletcher Building (+4.6%). Contact Energy's
share price also rallied strongly after its largest shareholder, Origin Energy,
tabled merger proposals.

will be available to be downloaded from the website shortly.
