Fonterra shares
The Transpower Lines Business holds these shares as a result of acquiring land for the construction of new transmission lines. When dairy farms are purchased, Fonterra shares are often purchased to enable the continued operation of the dairy farm. These shares are classified as available for sale because they do not fall into the other three categories of financial instruments, i.e. they have no "maturity" date, they are not traded on an active market, there are no fixed payments associated with holding the shares and they are not held for short term profit making.
