CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
BLACKWELL GLOBAL HOLDINGS LIMITED

For the six months ended 30 September 2018




2


Dear Shareholders

During the first six months of this financial year the Group’s focus has been on:

• deployment of funds towards good quality, moderate margin loan receivables. To this end, the Group has

to date:

- funded ten separate loan facilities;

- deployed total funds to date of $7,375,770 with loans structured across a mix of capitalised interest

arrangements and interest only loans. The loans have all been secured by first ranking mortgage

securities over quality real estate assets. There have been no defaults of any description in terms of

the loans deployed;

• development of a bespoke investment / funding structure whereby the Group can facilitate investment by

third party investors into loan facilities procured and managed by the Group;

• the continued development of internal operational infrastructure to provide a platform for growth of its

finance company operations; and

• continued investment in the progression of the development of a derivatives trading operation. The Group

has been able to offset much of the costs associated with the development of the derivatives trading

operation via the contribution towards those costs by the Group’s major shareholder.

The Group’s revenue comprises interest and fee income from mortgage lending activities.

During the last 6 months a new funding mechanism has been established by creating a Special Purpose

Vehicle (SPV). In April 2018 Blackwell Global Funds Limited was incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary to

act as a custodian for an SPV loan origination and lending service. The subsidiary has raised $2.9 million of

borrowings through the SPV arrangement and holds the Group’s interest in $2.9 million of loan receivables.

Blackwell Global Finance Limited manages all aspects of the loan. The Group derives interest and fee income

from this arrangement with a corresponding interest expense. The SPV is a risk sharing mechanism which

mitigates almost all of the Group’s credit risk on the related loan receivables that were funded through the SPV

arrangement.

The group is seeking additional SPV/Investor relationships as this method of funding has significant

advantages for BGI and will allow expansion of lending activities into the non-bank sector, which is seen as a

growth area given the main trading bank restrictive lending policies.

In addition to the SPV funding arrangement noted above, and to assist the Group with funding its ongoing

working capital requirements and loan receivables, the Group has drawn down a further $500,000 of secured

bonds issued to the Group’s major shareholder.

The ongoing challenge for the Group in respect of growing its finance company operation is the ability to

continue to raise debt finance from third party investors which can then be deployed towards funding loan

receivables, and generating a profit margin for the Group. The Group is continuing to explore innovative new

initiatives to secure more funding with a view to aggressively growing the finance company operation in the

future.

The loan book as at 30 September 2018 was $5.7 million. All loans were secured by first mortgages over

residential properties. The average lending to value ratio (LVR) was very low at an average of 58%. All loans

are current with no past-due assets.


CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
BLACKWELL GLOBAL HOLDINGS LIMITED

For the six months ended 30 September 2018

Discontinuation of investment in derivative trading operation

The Board of Blackwell has resolved to discontinue its ongoing investment in developing a derivatives trading

operation through its wholly owned subsidiary, Blackwell Global Investments (NZ) Limited (BGINZ).

BGINZ has been in the process of preparing an application to the Financial Markets Authority for a derivatives

trading licence. Following the Board’s decision, this application will no longer proceed, and all employees

associated with this operation will cease working for the business.

The Board expects that the discontinuation of the operations of BGINZ will be completed within two months.

The Board notes that:

• The regulatory landscape for derivative trading operations in New Zealand has become increasing

complex and expensive to comply with;

• The sector appears to also be highly competitive and under some strain having regard to at least one high

profile failure of a trans-Tasman derivatives operation recently;

• The quantum of investment required to launch the derivatives operation has increased significantly beyond

that original forecast during the course of the last financial year;

• The timeframe for the derivatives operation to become cashflow positive were also anticipated to take

longer than originally forecast.

The Board considers that the most appropriate direction for the Company to take is to concentrate on the

ongoing development of its finance company operation.


The group has adequate cash reserves to meet ongoing needs for the foreseeable future, but lending growth is

required to increase revenue, and this requires additional funding from the major shareholder and attracting

new investors in the new SPV model.

With its renewed financial strength and operational capabilities, BGI is striving towards establishing its new

commercial operations during the course of the current financial year.

The Board of BGI look forward to the further uptake of the new SPV model, enabling the Group to grow its loan

book and achieve profitability.

1. General Information

These unaudited interim financial statements are for Blackwell Global Holdings Limited (the “Company”) and

its subsidiaries (together the “Group”).

The Company and its subsidiaries are limited liability companies, domiciled and incorporated in New Zealand.

The Company is listed by NZX Limited on the NZX Market (“NZX”).

The Company is profit oriented and is a Financial Markets Conduct reporting entity under Part 7 of the

Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

The Group operates a diversified financial services business focusing on mortgage lending and a start-up

derivatives trading operation.

There are no seasonal or cyclical influences on these interim results.


2. Basis of Preparation

The unaudited interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2018 have been prepared

in accordance with NZ IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting and with the requirements of the Financial Markets

Conduct Act 2013 and the NZX Main Board Listing Rules. They also comply with the International Accounting

Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting. These unaudited interim financial statements do not include all the

notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report, and should be read in conjunction with the

financial statements published in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2018 which have been

prepared in accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (“NZ

IFRS”) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars.

The interim financial statements are unaudited.


3. Accounting Standards

Apart from the changes noted below, the unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared using the

same accounting policies and methods of computation detailed in the company’s Annual Report for the year

ended 31 March 2018.

Application of new and revised standards, amendments and interpretations

The Group has applied NZ IFRS 9: Financial Instruments and NZ IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with

Customers for the first time in the current financial year. Details of the impact of the application of these new

NZ IFRSs are described below.

Application of NZ IFRS 9

Under NZ IFRS 9 it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are

recognised. Instead, the Group accounts for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit

losses. In assessing whether the credit risk of the loan receivables has increased significantly since initial

recognition, the Group considers both quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and

supportable, including historical experience and forward-looking information that is available without undue

cost or effort. Forward looking information considered includes the future prospects of the domestic housing

market and similar overseas markets, as well as economic expert reports, financial analysis and government

data. The Group recognises any impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments with a

corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account.

No impairment losses have been recognised in these interim results, as there has been no significant change

in the risk profile of the loan receivables.

Application of NZ IFRS 15

The financial statements provide disclosure about disaggregated revenue in accordance with the

requirements of the new NZ IFRS (refer note 4).

4. Revenue

The Group recognises revenue from the following major sources:

• Interest from loan receivables

• Loan fee income

• Interest income from deposits and bank accounts




Interest income is accrued on a time basis by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective

interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the

expected life of the financial asset, or a shorter period where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the

financial asset.

Loan fee revenue is recognised as each performance obligation is satisfied. Loan acceptance fees charged at

the initiation of a loan are recognised as deferred income and amortised over the expected life of the loan.

Fees for other services are recognised as the service is performed.

Sundry income represents the benefit received from Blackwell Global Investments Limited paying costs on

behalf of the Group. It has been agreed that these costs will not be recovered from the Group. Refer to

Note 12: Related Parties.

6. Earnings Per Share


At 30 September 2018, there were no financial instruments that carried any shareholder dilution rights that

were considered to be dilutive (30 September 2017: none; 31 March 2018: none). Accordingly, basic and

diluted earnings per share are identical for the accounting periods being reported on.

established to facilitate the funding and borrowing of funds between a funder and two borrowers. The funder

and borrowers are not related parties to the Group. Under this arrangement the Group provides loan

management and trustee services. The Group facilitates the payments of moneys and effects the security

arrangements between the parties. Blackwell Global Funds Limited, as custodian of the loan agreements,

holds mortgage securities over the loans. The funder has a general security agreement with Blackwell Global

Funds Limited which provides them with the ability to enforce the mortgage securities on default by the

borrowers. The funder carries the significant majority of the credit risk on this special purpose funding

arrangement. The Group's exposure to credit risk is in relation to any unpaid fees or interest margin due to the

Group. The Group has recognised a corresponding current borrowing liability of $2,900,000 in relation to this

funding arrangement.



9. Loans and Borrowings



Bonds

The Group issued a further $500,000 bonds to Blackwell Global Group Limited on 27 April 2018 at a fixed

interest rate of 6%. The interest is payable six monthly. The bonds mature three years from the issue date at

their nominal value of $500,000. The contributed capital component represents the difference in fair value

between the current fixed interest rate and the estimated interest rate of a similar bond issued to a third party.

The value of the Bonds are recognised in the Interim Consolidated Statement of Financial Position is

calculated as follows:

10. Subsidiaries

Details of the Group’s subsidiaries at the end of the reporting period are as follows:




The place of incorporation and operation for all subsidiaries is New Zealand. The balance date of all

companies in the Group is 31 March.

Blackwell Global Funds Limited was incorporated on 4 April 2018. The company was established to act as a

custodian of a new special purpose funding arrangement by the Group (refer note 8).



11. Fair Values

The Group measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy, which reflects the significance of the

inputs used in making the measurements.

• Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets of liabilities.

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or

liability, either directly (that is, as prices), or indirectly (derived from prices).

• Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable

inputs).

As at 30 September 2018, 31 March 2018 and 30 September 2017, no assets or liabilities were recognised at

fair value.
