The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.

As such, it does not contain information that represents relatively insignificant changes occurring during the half-year within the Group.

These interim financial statements were authorised for issue on 31 August New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods The Group has considered the implications of new or amended Accounting Standards, but determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material.

14 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF US RESIDENTIAL FUND Report on the Half-Year Financial Report We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report for US Residential Limited and controlled entities and US Residential Trust and controlled entities ( Group ) and US Residential Trust and controlled entities ( Trust ) which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2016, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flow statement for the half-year ended on that date, the accounting policies, other selected explanatory notes, and the director s declaration. Directors Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report The directors of US Residential Limited and USA Residential Funds Management Limited are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001, and for such control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the financial report is not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with the Corporations Act As the auditor, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report. A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and account matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. Independence In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act ShineWing Australia ABN Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.
