Estimated Distributions and Impact on Trading Price

As announced on 23 June 2025, the Fund will pay an estimated distribution of $1.713591 per unit for FY2025. Investors are reminded that WCMQ will trade ex-distribution on 1 July 2025, meaning new unitholders on or after that date will not be entitled to the recently announced distribution.

In line with standard market pricing for active ETFs, WCMQ’s trading price is expected to adjust on the ex-distribution date to reflect the fact that the Fund’s units will trade “ex” the total estimated FY2025 distribution of $1.713591 per unit on that date. Given the relatively large size of the FY2025 distribution, the RE expects the WCMQ trading price to decline by approximately 15% on 01 July 2025. The distribution is expected to be paid on 21 July 2025.

The FY2025 estimated distribution is significantly higher than in previous years, primarily due to the realisation of capital gains within the Fund, which are distributed to investors at financial year end.

For the 2025 financial year-to-date, WCMQ’s portfolio has achieved a return of 30.22%, substantially outperforming the MSCI All Country World (ex-Australia) Index by 14.18% over the same period.
