- No breaches or enforceable events reported for Q3 FY25

Quarterly Compliance and Stability
Centuria Funds Management Limited (CFML), trustee of the Centuria Capital No. 2 Fund (C2F), has released its quarterly report for the period ending 31 March 2025. The report underscores the fund’s continued adherence to all terms governing its secured redeemable notes, traded under ASX code "C2FHA". No breaches of the Note Deed or the Corporations Act were recorded, and no events triggered immediate repayment or enforcement rights.
This steady compliance is a reassuring signal for noteholders, reflecting disciplined management and a stable operational environment within the fund and its guarantors.
Financial Arrangements and Related Party Loans
The report details loans extended to related bodies corporate, notably a substantial unsecured loan balance of A$408.4 million to Centuria Finance Pty Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Centuria Capital Limited. Additionally, an investment treated as a loan in CHPF Sub Trust No. 4, a subsidiary of Centuria Healthcare Property Fund, holds an aggregate balance of A$28.6 million.
All such loans remain unsecured, consistent with prior quarters, highlighting the interconnected nature of Centuria’s group entities and the fund’s strategic positioning within the broader Centuria Capital ecosystem.
Security Interests and Guarantor Status
CFML confirms that the security interests held consist of first ranking general security deeds over assets of CFML and related trusts, which are deemed sufficient to cover all liabilities associated with the notes. Importantly, the value of these secured properties is insulated from the financial performance of related bodies corporate, providing an additional layer of protection for noteholders.
There were no changes to guarantor arrangements during the quarter, with Centuria Capital Limited continuing as the unsecured guarantor of the notes. This stability in guarantor status further supports investor confidence in the fund’s creditworthiness.
Outlook and Market Position
While the report does not delve into detailed financial performance metrics or market outlook, the absence of adverse events or material changes suggests a steady operational footing for C2F. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Centuria Capital Group, which manages over A$20 billion in assets, C2F’s strategic equity investments in listed and unlisted property funds remain integral to the group’s diversified real estate portfolio.
Investors will be watching closely for future updates that might shed light on growth prospects or emerging risks, especially given the sizeable related party loans and the evolving property market landscape.
Bottom Line?
Centuria Capital No. 2 Fund’s Q3 report reinforces a foundation of compliance and security, setting the stage for cautious optimism ahead.
Questions in the middle?
- How might the unsecured loans to related parties impact C2F’s risk profile if market conditions shift?
- Will future quarterly reports reveal any changes in the security interests or guarantor arrangements?
- How does C2F’s performance align with broader trends in Centuria Capital Group’s property investments?
