KEY RATIOS


Capital



31 March 2019



Our capital ratio calculated in accordance

with the 2010 Regulations*


34%


Minimum capital ratio required by our

Trust Deed


8% if we have a credit rating**, or

15% if we do not have a credit rating


Minimum capital ratio that must be

included in the trust deed under reg 8(2) of

the 2010 Regulations*


8% if we have a credit rating, or

10% if we do not have a credit rating


The capital ratio is a measure of the extent to which General Finance is able to absorb losses without becoming

insolvent. The lower the capital ratio, the fewer financial assets General Finance has to absorb unexpected losses

arising out of its business activities.


































* Deposit Takers (Credit Ratings, Capital Ratios, and Related Party Exposures) Regulations 2010


** The creditworthiness of General Finance is not rated by an approved rating agency. This is because we operate

under the Deposit Takers (Credit Ratings Minimum Threshold) Exemption Notice 2016, exempting us from the Non-

bank Deposit Taker Act 2013 requirement to have a credit rating. The exemption applies because we have liabilities

of less than $20 million, making it unduly onerous to comply with the requirement to have a credit rating, and because

we maintain a capital ratio of at least 10%. This means that General Finance has not received an independent

opinion, from an approved source, of its capability and willingness to repay its debts.


Issue 14 1 May 2019

Related Party Exposures



31 March 2019



Our aggregate exposures to related

parties as calculated in accordance with

the 2010 Regulations*


6%


Maximum limit on aggregate exposures to

related parties that we must not exceed

that is included in our Trust Deed


10% of capital


Maximum limit on aggregate exposures to

related parties that we must not exceed

that must be included in our Trust Deed

under reg 23(3)(b) of the 2010

Regulations*


15% of capital


Related party exposures are financial exposures that General Finance has to related parties. A related party is an

entity that is related to General Finance through common control or some other connection that may give the party

influence over General Finance (or General Finance over the related party). These related parties include our

directors, our parent company Corporate Holdings Limited and Investment Research Group Limited.




































* Deposit Takers (Credit Ratings, Capital Ratios, and Related Party Exposures) Regulations 2010


Issue 14 1 May 2019

Liquidity



31 March 2019



Our liquidity calculated in accordance with

the quantitative liquidity requirements

included in our Trust Deed


22.54 times


The minimum liquidity requirements

required by our Trust Deed


A liquidity cover ratio of 1.25 times


Liquidity requirements help to ensure that General Finance has sufficient realisable assets on hand to pay its debts

as they become due in the ordinary course of business. Failure to comply with liquidity requirements may mean that

General Finance is unable to repay investors on time, and may indicate other financial problems in its business.
