An immediate capital gain would arise for shareholders where their cost base of any share is less than $2.65." Does this mean that instead of a $2.65 distribution the purchase price will be changed by deducting $2.65 from the initial purchase price? That's what I got from it, a little confusing and hope some of you here with more knowledge than I may be able to shed some light on this. Thanks

You should receive a $2.65 per share distribution (plus the dividend). Upon disposing any of your BLD shares the subject of this capital return, your cost base will be notionally reduced by $2.65 (thereby increasing your capital gain and the CGT payable to the ATO).
