Principal Activities

The principal activities of the Group are investing in the US single family home residential property marked.

Review of Operations

The consolidated after-tax profit of the Group for the period amounted to $277,000 (2015: $572,000). Rental income and fair value gain from the portfolio of single family homes was the Fund’s primary source of revenue in the period. Total comprehensive income of USR for the six months ended 30 June 2016 was $32,000 (2015: $746,000). Major contributions to this was the fair value gain on investment properties of $536,000 (2015: $1,153,000); income tax benefit of $43,000 (2015: 402,000 expense), and unrealised foreign exchange loss of $245,000 (2015: 174,000 gain), reflecting the appreciation of the Australian dollar against the US dollar during the period (US$0.743 / A$1.000 as at 30 June 2016 versus US$0.731 / A$1.000 as at 31 December 2015). During the period the Group terminated its property development joint venture arrangement and incurred a loss for the period of $52,000.

Events Subsequent to the End of the Reporting Period On 27 July 2016 USR announced that it has entered into an agreement for the sale of up to 33 properties from the single family home portfolio for gross proceeds of US$1.93 million. US$1.0 million of the gross proceeds of the sale will be used to pay down debt. On 28 July 2016 USR completed a placement 1,666,667 stapled securities at $0.60 to raise AUD$1,000,000 (before costs). AUD$567,000 of these funds were used to reduce debt. On 31 July 2016 13,808,069 options exercisable at AUD$0.95 lapsed. On 4 August 2016 USR issued 333,641 at $0.60 each to raise AUD$200,184 (before costs) pursuant to an entitlement offer announced on 9 May 2016. No other matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the period that significantly affect or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.

US RESIDENTIAL FUND NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Preparation

These general purpose interim financial statements for half-year reporting period ended 30 June 2016 have been prepared in accordance with requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. This interim financial report is for US Residential Limited and controlled entities and US Residential Trust and controlled entities (the “Group”) and US Residential Trust and controlled entities (the “Trust”).

This interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of US Residential Fund entities (referred to as the “Group”). As such, it does not contain information that represents relatively insignificant changes occurring during the half-year within the Group. It is therefore recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2015, together with any public announcements made during the following half-year.

These interim financial statements were authorised for issue on 31 August 2016.

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.

At the USR annual general meeting held on 9 June 2016, stapled security holders approved the following transactions:

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 2001. 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 2001.
