Meeting Announcements

General Finance has had an upgrade of its Credit Rating for BB- with a stable outlook to BB-
with a POSITIVE outlook.
Managing Director Brent King said
“This is a reinforcement of the long-term strategy that we have in place. Our strong growth
and increases in margins and profits are supporting the credit rating upgrade. We are hopeful
of further developments in the next review. We are finding that Depositors are now paying
more attention to credit ratings and that non-rated issues are having to pay considerably more
for deposits than rated issuers.“
