Financial Statements<br />

This section contains three financial statements, each of which has a specific role and contains different<br />

information:<br />

• The Statement of net assets presents all the items that make up the fund’s net assets as at<br />

June 30, 2011. The main item is the “Investments” section, which reflects the overall value of the<br />

securities portfolio.<br />

• The Statement of operations breaks down the overall income and expenses generated by the fund<br />

during the period.<br />

• The Statement of changes in net assets per Series reconciles the changes in net assets per Series<br />

during the period, listing the unit purchases and redemptions carried out by investors, as well as<br />

distributions.<br />

Finally, the notes to the financial statements provide additional information. For example, they outline the<br />

main accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements.<br />

Notice to Unitholders<br />

Under National Instrument 81-106 – Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure, Part 2, subsection 2.12(2), if an<br />

auditor has not performed a review of the interim financial statements, they must be accompanied by a notice<br />

indicating that the financial statements have not been reviewed by an auditor. The auditors of the funds appointed<br />

by the unitholders, have not reviewed the accompanying financial statements.


Message to Unitholders<br />

The first half of 2011 has proven to be full of market ups and<br />

downs, leaving more than a few investors feeling unsettled.<br />

Geopolitical tensions, natural disasters and a faltering economy<br />

in some European nations cast a pall of uncertainty and volatility<br />

over markets.<br />

The MSCI World Index remained practically unchanged in June, amidst<br />

fears related to sovereign debt issues in certain European nations. Greece<br />

was in the spotlight due to new concerns related to the country’s<br />

financial wellbeing. One year after a €110 billion austerity plan was<br />

submitted by the European Union and the International Monetary Fund,<br />

markets now fear that a restructuring of the country’s debt is inevitable.<br />

Moreover, a restructuring plan put forward by France is currently being<br />

studied by eurozone banks and insurers.<br />

Despite a dour economic outlook, hopeful signs are present. The situation<br />

in the eurozone remains precarious, however Spain and Italy are showing<br />

signs of stabilization. South of the border, the declining greenback<br />

represents a substantial advantage for U.S. exporters. While employment<br />

figures continue to be scrutinized, unemployment claims are falling and<br />

the number of consumers planning to buy a home is rising, a sign that the<br />

worst may be over. Despite the major challenges that Japan still faces,<br />

there is every indication that a recovery will begin sooner than expected.<br />

Because one of our objectives is to provide you with ongoing financial<br />

information about developments affecting your portfolio, we are pleased<br />

to provide you with a copy of our 2011 interim report. We hope that it<br />

will answer your questions and we invite you to contact your financial<br />

advisor should you require any additional information.<br />

In the U.S., Standard & Poor’s decision to downgrade the country’s debt<br />

outlook from stable to negative, as it had been growing unsustainably<br />

since the Second World War, only impacted the U.S. dollar with markets<br />

escaping unscathed. In Japan, three months after the devastating<br />

earthquake, the after-effects are gradually fading and the country<br />

appears to be on the long slow road to recovery. The economy is still<br />

impacted by the effects of three main factors, namely the drop in<br />

manufacturing and exports, declining household incomes and the<br />

continually rising yen. Lastly, the geopolitical crisis in the Arab world has<br />

brought about its share of fears about the possible impact on crude<br />

prices in recent months.<br />

We constantly strive to provide you with the most beneficial investment<br />

solutions. Thank you for your trust in the <strong>Jarislowsky</strong> <strong>Fraser</strong> Select Funds.<br />

Notes to Financial Statements<br />

as at June 30, 2011 (unaudited)<br />

1- GOVERNING STATUTES<br />

The following are open-ended mutual fund trusts formed under the laws<br />

of the Province of Ontario by an instrument of trust on the following<br />

dates:<br />

Funds<br />

Date Established<br />

<strong>Jarislowsky</strong> <strong>Fraser</strong> Select Income Fund October 7, 2010<br />

<strong>Jarislowsky</strong> <strong>Fraser</strong> Select Balanced Fund October 7, 2010<br />

<strong>Jarislowsky</strong> <strong>Fraser</strong> Select Canadian Equity Fund October 7, 2010<br />

Collectively the mutual funds trusts are known as the “funds”. The<br />

managers of the funds, National Bank Securities Inc., and the trustee of<br />

the funds, Natcan Trust Company, are wholly-owned subsidiaries of<br />

National Bank of Canada.<br />

2- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES<br />

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian<br />

generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with the<br />

Regulation 81-106 on continuous information.<br />

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies<br />

consistently followed by the funds:<br />

Valuation of investments<br />

Investments are valued at fair value and include accrued interest on the<br />

money market securities. The fair value of investments as at the<br />

financial reporting date is determined as follows:<br />

• Investments held that are traded in an active market through<br />

recognized public stock exchanges, over-the-counter markets or<br />

through recognized investment dealers are valued at their bid prices<br />

at their valuation date. Investments held include money market<br />

instruments, bonds and debentures as well as shares;<br />

• Investments held that are not traded in an active market are valued<br />

based on the results of valuation techniques, using observable<br />

market inputs, on criteria which is designated by the manager. The<br />

fair value of certain securities may be estimated using valuation<br />

techniques based on assumptions that are not supported by<br />

observable market inputs.<br />

Cost is determined according to the average cost method.<br />

An adjustment factor is calculated each valuation day for securities<br />

traded on international markets. This factor reflects the impact on the<br />

fair value of securities of an event that would have occurred after the<br />

closing of the foreign markets. This new information available can now<br />

be taking into consideration in the fair value of securities.<br />

Transaction costs<br />

Transaction costs, such as brokerage commissions, incurred at the time<br />

of purchase and sale of securities by the funds are recognized as<br />

“Transaction costs on purchase and sale of investments” in the<br />

Statement of Operations.<br />

Investment transactions and recognition of income and expenses<br />

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Income<br />

and expenses are recorded using the accrual basis of accounting.<br />

Interest income is recorded as earned and dividend income is recorded<br />

on the ex-dividend date. Foreign revenue is presented net of the<br />

withholding taxes deducted by foreign countries. Gains or losses arising<br />

from the sale of investments and unrealized appreciation or depreciation<br />

on investments are determined from the cost using the average cost basis.<br />

The income, the realized and unrealized gains (losses) are divided<br />

between the different series to pro rata of net asset value of each series.<br />

The method of dividing up specific expenses is made directly between<br />

the funds and different series of the same fund. Specific expenses<br />

include the custodial fees and the rights and deposits.<br />

The method of splitting common expenses to all funds as well as to<br />

different series is calculated based on a percentage determined by the<br />

pro rata of the average net asset value, of the number of unitholders of<br />

each fund, or serie, and according to the total number of funds. Common<br />

expenses include the directors’ fees of independent review committee,<br />

audit fees, legal fees and securityholders’ reporting costs.<br />

Financial instruments<br />

The classification of financial assets and liabilities under Section 3862<br />

is as follows:<br />

• Investments, cash and bank overdraft are classified as held for<br />

trading and are recorded at fair value;<br />

• Subscriptions receivable, interest and dividends receivable and other<br />

assets receivable are classified as loans and amounts receivable and<br />

are recorded at amortized cost;<br />

• Unrealized depreciation on foreign exchange contracts, redeemed<br />

units payable, investments payable and accrued expenses are<br />

classified as financial liabilities and are recorded at amortized cost.<br />

Accounting estimates<br />

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with Canadian<br />

GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that<br />

affect the amounts recorded in the financial statements and disclosed<br />

in the notes. These estimates, including the fair value of investments<br />

and accrued expenses, are based on management’s best knowledge of<br />

current events and actions that the funds may undertake in the future.<br />

Actual results may differ from these estimates.<br />

Valuation of units<br />

The net asset value (NAV) of a unit of each series within a fund is<br />

determined each business day when the Toronto Stock Exchange is open<br />

by dividing net asset value attributable to each serie by the number of<br />

units outstanding for the corresponding serie.<br />

respect the provisions of Section 3855 of the Canadian Institute of<br />

Chartered Accountants (CICA) Handbook for financial statements<br />

reporting according to Canadian GAAP, without changing their method<br />

of calculating the transactional net asset value for the purposes of units<br />

purchases, transfers and redemptions. According to the requirements of<br />

the CSA, reconciliation between the transactional NAV and the net assets<br />

calculated under Section 3855 of the fund is presented in note 5 of the<br />

financial statements.<br />

Increase in net assets from operations per unit<br />

The increase or decrease in net assets from operations per unit<br />

presented in the statement of operations represents the increase or<br />

decrease in net assets from operations for the period, divided by the<br />

average number of units outstanding during the period.<br />

Distributions to unitholders<br />

The net income and net realized capital gains of each of the funds are<br />

distributed to unitholders according to the period specified in the<br />

following table, pro rata to the units held by them.<br />

*This fund may also distribute return of capital on a monthly basis.<br />

All annual distributions take place in December of each year.<br />

Foreign currency translation<br />

The fair value of investments and all other assets and liabilities in<br />

foreign currencies is translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates<br />

in effect at the date of the statement of net assets.<br />

Purchases and sales of investments, as well as income and expenses are<br />

translated at the prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of<br />

such transactions.<br />

Realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses are presented<br />

in “Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currencies” and “Unrealized<br />

gains (losses) on foreign currencies”.<br />

3- FUTURE ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CHANGES<br />

Future accounting standards<br />

In February 2008, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board (AcSB)<br />

confirmed that all publicly accountable enterprises would be required to<br />

report under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as<br />

published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) for<br />

fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. However, in January<br />

2011, the AcSB approved a deferral of the effective date of entry in<br />

force of IFRS from January 1, 2011 to January 1, 2013 for investment<br />

companies that are currently applying the Accounting Guideline AcG-18<br />

“Investment Companies”.<br />

The deferral of the transition date to IFRS has been put in place to<br />

ensure that investment companies will not have to modify their actual<br />

accounting treatment for entities in which they have control while the<br />

IASB is completing the standard about investment companies it plans<br />

to publish.<br />

Consequently, the Funds will publish their first audited financial<br />

statements in accordance with IFRS for the year ending December 31,<br />

2013 and will present comparative figures in accordance with IFRS for<br />

the year ending December 31, 2012, including an opening balance sheet<br />

as at January 1, 2012.<br />

Given the deferral of the effective transition date to IFRS, management<br />

is closely monitoring the evolution of the standards and is adjusting its<br />

plan consequently. In the periods preceding the first fiscal year in which<br />

IFRS will be adopted, the impacts of transitioning to IFRS on the financial<br />

statements of the Funds will be disclosed as they become known.<br />

4- RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS<br />

Investment activities of the funds expose them to some financial risks.<br />

The manager of the funds seeks to minimize these risks by employing<br />

experienced portfolio managers that manages the security portfolios of<br />

the funds on a daily basis according to market events and the<br />

investment policy of each fund.<br />

The funds apply the requirements of Section 3862 of the CICA Handbook<br />

on presenting information with respect to the nature and extent of risks<br />

arising from financial instruments and how the entity manages those<br />

risks. This accounting standard has no impact on the daily net asset<br />

value of the funds.<br />

Currency risk<br />

Changes in the value of the Canadian Dollar compared to foreign<br />

currencies will affect the Canadian Dollars value of any foreign securities<br />

in a fund. Bonds issued in foreign currencies are listed in the investment<br />

portfolio. Foreign stocks are also exposed to currency risks since the<br />

value of such stocks are translated to Canadian dollars to determine<br />

their fair value. In order to quantify the currency risk, a table appears<br />

at the investment portfolio of each fund having a significant exposure<br />

to foreign currencies at the end of the period. Numbers shown include<br />

monetary and non-monetary. In practice, actual results may differ from<br />

this analysis and the difference can be significant.<br />

Credit risk<br />

Credit risk is the risk that a commitment with the fund is not respected<br />

by the counterparty of a financial instrument. The credit risk of the<br />

funds is derived primarily from debt securities. The fair value of<br />

investments represents the maximum credit risk at the end of the period.<br />

The fair value of a financial instrument reflects the creditworthiness and<br />

the credit rating of the issuer. The funds invest in financial assets whose<br />

rating was established by recognized rating agencies. A table containing<br />

22


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)<br />

as at June 30, 2011 (unaudited)<br />

the distribution of securities under their credit rating is in portfolio<br />

investments for each fund whose exposure to credit risk is important at<br />

the end of the period. In practice, actual results may differ from this<br />

analysis and the difference can be significant.<br />

The securities transactions are settled upon delivery by brokers. The<br />

default risk is considered low because the supply of securities is<br />

conducted once the broker has received payment. The transaction fails<br />

when a party fails to meet its commitments.<br />

According to the policy of investment funds, the credit risk is monitored<br />

regularly by the manager of the funds.<br />

Interest rate risk<br />

Changes in market interest rates expose income securities, such as<br />

bonds, to interest rate risk. Funds that hold income securities are<br />

exposed to this risk since changes in prevailing market interest rates will<br />

affect the value of income securities. The sensitivity of the funds’<br />

interest rate was evaluated according to the weighted duration of the<br />

portfolio. In order to quantify the interest rate risk, a table appears at<br />

the investment portfolio of each fund having a significant exposure to<br />

interest rate risks at the end of the period. In practice, actual results<br />

may differ from this analysis and the difference can be significant.<br />

Price risk<br />

Price risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate<br />

as a result of changes in market prices caused by factors specific to a<br />

security, its issuer or all factors affecting a market or a market segment<br />

(other than those resulting from currency risk and interest rate risk).<br />

Maximum risk resulting from financial instruments is equivalent to their<br />

fair value.<br />

In order to quantify the price risk, a table appears at the investment<br />

portfolio of each fund having a significant exposure to price risk at the<br />

end of the period. In practice, actual results may differ from this analysis<br />

and the difference can be significant.<br />

Liquidity risk<br />

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk of an entity having difficulty meeting<br />

its obligations or making a commitment and suffering a financial loss<br />

to another party. The unitholders may redeem their units each valuation<br />

day. In accordance with securities regulations, at least 90% of a<br />

portfolio should be composed of liquid investments traded on active<br />

markets as it can fluctuate. Because the funds invest in active markets,<br />

they can dispose of their assets quickly. The deadlines for financial<br />

liabilities remain below three months for all funds, thereby the funds<br />

maintain a level of cash and short-term investments that the manager<br />

consider sufficient to maintain the necessary liquidity.<br />

Fair value of financial instruments<br />

For presentation purposes, the information on financial instruments are<br />

required to be presented according to a hierarchy of assessments of fair<br />

value. This three-level hierarchy is established according to the<br />

transparency of data taken into account in assessing the fair value of<br />

assets and liabilities and is presented below:<br />

• Level 1 — Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) of identical<br />

instruments in active markets that the reporting entity has the<br />

ability to access at the measurement date;<br />

• Level 2 — Inputs are quoted prices of similar instruments in active<br />

markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets<br />

that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices used in a<br />

valuation model that are observable for that instrument; and inputs<br />

that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable<br />

market data by correlation or other means;<br />

• Level 3 — One or more significant inputs used in a valuation<br />

technique are unobservable for the instruments.<br />

Determination of fair value and the resulting hierarchy requires the use<br />

of observable market data whenever available. The classification of a<br />

financial instrument in the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of<br />

input that is significant to the measurement of fair value.<br />

A table indicating the breakdown of securities according to their level<br />

appears in the investment portfolio.<br />

5- RECONCILIATION OF NET ASSET VALUE AND NET ASSETS<br />

Following the application of the Section 3855, net assets under GAAP,<br />

as at June 30, 2011, was determined by measuring the fair value of<br />

financial assets and liabilities quoted in an active market. This fair value<br />

is defined as the bid price for assets and the asking price for liabilities.<br />

The net asset value of operations is measured using the closing price of<br />

assets and liabilities. The adjustment included in the Statement of<br />

Operations under “Change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on<br />

investments” is presented in the following table:<br />

net asset value on valuation date in the normal course of operation.<br />

Some conditions related to redemption of the funds’ units held by the<br />

related entities apply. Those conditions are detailed in the simplified<br />

prospectus.<br />

11- CAPITAL MANAGEMENT<br />

The fund’s capital corresponds to the net assets. The fund’s capital is<br />

managed in accordance with each of the fund’s investment objectives,<br />

policies, and restrictions, as outlined in the fund’s prospectus. Changes<br />

in the fund’s capital during the year are reflected in the Statements of<br />

Changes in Net Assets.<br />

12- INCOME TAXES<br />

The funds are qualified as mutual fund trusts under the Income Tax Act<br />

(Canada) and the Taxation Act (Quebec). Each trust distributes all of its<br />

net income and a sufficient portion of its net realized capital gains in<br />

order to not be subject to income taxes.<br />

Under the Income Tax Act, mutual funds may claim a refund of the<br />

capital gains tax. A mathematical formula that takes units redeemed<br />

during the year into account is used to maximize the claim in order to<br />

retain capital gains in the funds and minimize income taxes payable by<br />

unitholders.<br />

The fiscal year of the mutual fund trusts ends on December 15.<br />

As determined on the tax returns of 2010, accumulated capital losses<br />

that can be used to reduce capital gains in future years and accumulated<br />

non-capital losses that can be used to reduce capital gains or net<br />

income in future years are as follows:<br />

Under the Income Tax Act (Canada), the non-capital losses can be carried<br />

forward for up to 20 years and capital losses can be carried forward<br />

indefinitely.<br />
