Ziller Global Fund Active ETF Announces 58.63 Cents Per Unit EOFY Distribution; DRP Price Set at $4.3319

EOFY Distribution of 58.630 Cents Per Unit to be Paid on 10 July 2026

Perennial Investment Management Limited, acting as the Responsible Entity for the Ziller Global Fund Active ETF, officially confirmed the EOFY distribution on 2 July 2026. The distribution amount of 58.630 cents per unit represents income allocated to eligible unitholders at the conclusion of the 2025–26 Australian financial year.

Payments will be made on Friday, 10 July 2026. Unitholders registered by the Record Date, Tuesday, 30 June 2026, who held units before the Ex Distribution Date of Monday, 29 June 2026, qualify for this distribution. This schedule aligns with standard Australian managed fund distribution protocols, ensuring only qualifying unitholders receive income allocations.

DRP Issue Price of $4.3319 Enables Reinvestment into Additional ZILR Units

In addition to the cash payout, the fund set the DRP issue price at $4.3319 per unit. Eligible unitholders could elect to reinvest their distribution entitlement into new units at this price rather than receive cash. The DRP election deadline was 2PM on Wednesday, 1 July 2026, and has now passed.

Unitholders who opted into the DRP before the deadline will have their distributions converted into extra ZILR units at the $4.3319 price. This option offers a cost-effective way for long-term investors to compound their holdings without incurring brokerage fees, though investors should seek independent tax and financial advice regarding DRP participation implications.

Distribution Timeline: Ex Distribution, Record, DRP Election, and Payment Dates

The distribution timetable includes four key dates. The Ex Distribution Date was Monday, 29 June 2026, meaning units purchased on or after this date do not carry entitlement to the current distribution. The Record Date was Tuesday, 30 June 2026, determining eligible unitholders for payment.

The DRP Election Date was 2PM on Wednesday, 1 July 2026, providing a brief window for unitholders to choose their distribution method. The Payment Date is Friday, 10 July 2026, when electronic payments will be made to registered bank accounts. This timetable follows typical Australian managed fund and ETF distribution procedures.

Distributions Paid Electronically Only; Bank Details Must Be Registered

The fund does not issue distributions via cheque or mail; all payments are electronic. Unitholders must have valid bank account details registered with the fund’s registrar, Automic Pty Ltd, by the Record Date to receive payments promptly. Those yet to register bank details are encouraged to do so through the Automic Investor Centre at https://portal.automic.com.au/investor/home.

For assistance with bank detail registration or DRP elections, investors can contact Automic Investor Services at 1300 288 664 or email [email protected]. The necessary Generic Static Form for payment instructions is available in the "Documents" section of the Automic portal. Failure to register bank details may delay distribution payments, making timely action critical for this EOFY cycle.

EOFY Distribution Relative to DRP Issue Price

The declared EOFY distribution of 58.630 cents per unit, compared to the DRP issue price of $4.3319, implies a yield of approximately 13.5% based on a simple calculation. However, investors should recognize that EOFY distributions may include income and realised capital gains accumulated over the financial year and may not directly correspond to annualised yield metrics used for other income assets.

The company did not specify the breakdown between income and capital gains within the distribution. Unitholders seeking detailed tax component information should consult their annual tax statements or contact the fund’s investor services. Tax treatment varies by individual circumstances, so professional tax advice is recommended.

Perennial Investment Management’s Role as Responsible Entity

Perennial Investment Management Limited, located at Level 27, 88 Phillip Street, Sydney NSW 2000, issued this update as the Responsible Entity for the Ziller Global Fund Active ETF. Under the Corporations Act 2001, the Responsible Entity is legally accountable for operating a registered managed investment scheme and must act in unitholders’ best interests. Perennial holds Australian Financial Services Licence No. 275101, authorizing it to manage Exchange Traded Managed Funds.

This structure separates portfolio management, conducted by Ziller Funds Management Pty Limited, from the regulatory and administrative functions performed by Perennial. This dual-entity model is prevalent in the Australian ETF and managed fund industry, providing enhanced regulatory oversight. Investors with questions about fund operations or unitholder rights may contact Perennial at 1300 730 032 or [email protected].

Benchmarking Against MSCI All Country World Net Index (AUD)

The Ziller Global Fund Active ETF targets returns exceeding the MSCI All Country World Net Index (AUD), a widely recognized benchmark covering large- and mid-cap equities across 23 developed and 24 emerging markets. This broad exposure encompasses thousands of listed companies globally. By aiming for an absolute return above this index after fees, ZILR positions itself as an actively managed global equity fund seeking to outperform passive alternatives over time.

The fund’s focus on high-growth companies led by exceptional founders suggests a growth-oriented, potentially concentrated portfolio that may differ significantly from the broad MSCI ACWI benchmark. Such active ETFs can experience higher tracking error compared to passive index funds, leading to periods of both outperformance and underperformance. The company reminds investors that past performance is not indicative of future results and advises reviewing the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) and Target Market Determination (TMD) before investing.

Those who elected to participate in the DRP can expect confirmation of additional unit allocations at the $4.3319 issue price.

Following distribution payments, investors may look forward to the fund’s next performance and portfolio update, which could provide insights into positioning for the 2026–27 financial year. The immediate share price impact of this distribution announcement is not publicly available.
