General Capital Limited advises that its subsidiary General Finance Limited, a Non-bank Deposit Taker,
will upload its quarterly report for the quarter ended 31 March 2019 to the Disclose Register today.

Conduct Act 2013.

GENERAL FINANCE LIMITED
Quarterly report as at 31 March 2019
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.

Liquidity

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.
