CPF - Notice to Members
7 December 2015 - Update on Wind Up of CPF
It was previously advised that the finalisation of the wind up of the LM Cash Performance Fund (CPF) (the Fund) would occur around May 2015. The finalisation of the wind up of the CPF has been delayed for a number of reasons such as:
- Unresolved claim against the Fund by Joseph Hayes as joint and several Receiver and Manager of the LM First Mortgage Income Fund (LM FMIF) for contribution to operational funding of the LM Investment Gold Coast office. Further substantiating information has been requested by our office on several occasions but is yet to be received;
- Finalisation of outstanding taxation lodgements of the CPF. Our office received correspondence from the Deputy Commissioner of Taxation (ATO) advising of outstanding Income Tax Returns (ITR’s) for financial years ended 30 June 2006 through 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2012 onwards as well as several Business Activity Statements (BAS). We have caused the ITR’s for financial years ended 2006 through 2012 to be lodged with the ATO in an effort to partially satisfy the outstanding lodgement obligations and we are currently seeking to resolve the issue of the outstanding lodgements with the Fund’s former accountant; and
- Significant delays in relation to the completion of the audits for financial year ended 30 June 2014 (which would in turn allow financial year 2015 and final audit to be progressed and completed). The finalisation of the audit had been initially delayed as a result of sourcing primary documentation to satisfy audit requirements which occurred primarily as a result of issues surrounding accessing server records following the closure of the LMIM office in December 2014. However these issues were resolved by my office and we had expected the auditors to make significant progress when they recommenced their work in August this year. This has not occurred to the level of our expectations.
The timing for finalisation is currently unknown as it will greatly depend on the resolution of the outstanding lodgements with the ATO and the finalisation of the audits. Given the outstanding lodgement obligations and unresolved claims against the CPF, a reliable estimate of the future balance to be made available for distribution to investors, if any, cannot be forecast with reliable certainty.
We recognise that investors are looking for a final resolution to this fund and are working to complete the wind-up as expeditiously as possible. Once completed, the audited financials will be made available to investors, along with a more detailed update on the fund.
5 November 2014 - Capital Distribution
On 5 November 2014, correspondence was forwarded to investors advising them of a capital distribution which was commenced on 1 November 2014.
This distribution is for a total of $400,000 to be distributed amongst the unit holders in the Cash Performance fund equating to approximately 60% of the funds currently available for distribution.
It is anticipated that a further distribution will occur early in the new year.
4 November 2013 - Notice Under Section 601NC (CPF)
Some months ago a request was sent to each investor in the Cash Performance Fund requesting them to send in a request for a full redemption of their investment. This request was made to minimise costs which would have been incurred in issuing a formal wind up notice for the fund.
Unfortunately, not all investors responded to this request to submit a redemption and accordingly, on 4 November 2013 a Notice Under Section 601NC of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) was issued containing the proposal to wind up the fund. This notice can be viewed below.
Investors are urged to update their account details to ensure that when distributions are paid, that they are received into their nominated account. The form for updating your account details is provided below as well as in the 601NC notice. Once completed, this should be sent to Armstrong Registry Services to ensure the database is updated with your correct details.
