As announced on the ASX on 20 December 2024, the RFM Board has resolved to suspend the DRP with consideration to the stapled security price continuing to trade below its adjusted net asset value. It is not considered to be in the best interests of unitholders as a whole for new units to be issued under the DRP.
While the DRP is suspended, participants in the DRP will receive cash distributions including the distribution for the quarter ended 31 December 2024 announced on 2 December 2024.
Unitholders are advised that their bank details can be updated with RFF’s registry, Boardroom Pty Limited, by either:
The suspension will remain in place until further notice. Should the suspension of the DRP be lifted, each unitholder’s existing DRP status will be reinstated. A copy of the DRP can be accessed HERE.

RFF is a stapled security, incorporating Rural Funds Trust (RFT) and RF Active (RFA). RFT is a passive entity for tax purposes and incorporates the majority of RFF assets including almonds, macadamias, vineyards, cropping and cattle sectors. The income received from these assets is passive in nature and thus attracts flow through taxation treatment, meaning that earnings on these assets are taxed in the hands of the investor at their marginal rate. RFA includes assets which are considered operational in nature from a taxation perspective. As these assets are held within RFA they do not impact on the flow through taxation treatment on the assets held within RFT. RFA is taxed as a public trading trust. As a public trading trust, RFA pays tax at the corporate tax rate (currently 30%) on the profit it generates from its operational activities. Any franking credits paid as part of RFA distributions will be described on the relevant Distribution Statement provided to Unitholders.
