How do you define distributable cash?
Distributable cash is the term used by entities such as the Fund to describe the funds available for distribution to unitholders. The Fund considers adjusted distributable cash to be cash flow from operations, before changes in non-cash working capital, less maintenance capital expenditures. Distributable cash is not an earnings measure recognized by GAAP and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, the distributable cash of the Fund is unlikely to be comparable to the distributable cash measures presented by other issuers. However, distributable cash is commonly used by Canadian open-ended trusts as an indicator of financial performance and we believe it is a useful supplemental measure that may assist in assessing the potential return on an investment in the Fund’s units.
What about investment eligibility?
The Fund’s units are eligible for investment under the usual Canadian statutes and for RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and DPSPs, and are not considered foreign property under such plans.
