ATM - A2 Milk Corporation Limited

[steve9]

I had a question about buying A2M on the ASX. The IRD share exemption tool says that A2M does not qualify under the Australian share exemption :

Is this correct and since I am a NZ resident, I assume I would be better off buying the NZX listed ATM for not having to pay any tax on gains.

We let the Aussies make and eat pavlova. But it's still ours...

Actually competitive sports can teach you a lot of good traits that you need to be a go hard or go home investor, traits such as Perseverance/Patience/Adaption/Toughness/Vision and a Never say die attitude to name but a few, whoops I must mention multitasking(Yes that includes the ability to trade shares whilst riding the chairlift in a blizzard) PS-You altered your post and removed the bit on sports while I was typing(Naughty)

Does not look right. ATM is actually a New Zealand company (which might be the reason that they are not in the IRD FIF tool), and the Australian shares (A2M) are in all ways identical with the New Zealand shares and can be transferred between the stock exchanges as you please.

They (A2M) should not be treated differently from the ATM NZ shares.

I assume IRD made a mistake in their tool based on the ticker being different in Australia or they just don't list NZ companies in their tool (which would make sense, given that this is about Foreign Investment Funds)

Better check with IRD or your accountant, but if it would be me I would not report them under the FIF regime but treat them as any other New Zealand share ...

Agree, A2 is clearly a NZ Registered Company (that trades on the ASX)

Seems like a mistake with the tool.

They can be transferred to NZX share registry at no cost I suspect

A complete move to the ASX might be good for ATM.
XRO at ATH today - almost at equivalent of $80 NZD!

There is a different though, XRO is worth it's share price, ATM isn't.
