The directors consider that $43,785,000 (1994: $87,569,000) of the company's retained profits are not distributable since such profits arose from an intra group sale of property which was disposed of to a wholly-owned subsidiary during the year ended 30th June, 1994 and which was subsequently sold during the year ended 30th June, 1995 to an associated company in which the group has a 50% shareholding.
The directors consider that all of the general reserve and $510,195,000 (1994: $496,104,000) of the retained profits of the company, totalling $690,195,000 (1994: $666,104,000), are distributable.
