SUMMERSET REPORTS UNDERLYING PROFIT GROWTH OF 27% FOR 1H18



 Net profit after tax of NZ$82.0 million, down 9% on 1H17

 Underlying profit for 1H18 of NZ$45.2 million, up 27% on 1H17

 Total assets of NZ$2.4 billion, up 25% on 1H17

 299 total sales of occupation rights, down 7% on 1H17

 165 new retirement units delivered, on track for delivery of 450 for FY18

 Interim dividend of NZ 6.0 cents per share

 Development margin of 33%, up from 28% in 1H17


Retirement village operator Summerset Group Holdings Limited has announced an underlying

profit of $45.2m, an increase of 27%, in line with the profit guidance provided in early July.


Summerset CEO Julian Cook said the underlying profit result was driven primarily by strong

margins on both new and resales settled during the period.


“We are pleased with our underlying profit result, which reflects strong development and resales

margins in the period. While sales volumes were lower than the same period of 2017, we are

seeing good levels of contracts on homes – both on resales and homes to be completed before

the end of 2018 – many of which will settle in the second half of the year.”


Summerset’s net profit for the first half of 2018, which includes unrealised valuation gains in the

fair value of investment property, is $82.0m, down 9% on the same period last year.


“IFRS profit includes fair value movement on investment property of $78.3m relative to $87.1m

in the first half of 2017. The lower fair value movement versus the corresponding period in 2017

reflects lower levels of retirement unit price increases across our portfolio in response to the

flattening property market being seen in some areas of the country,” said Mr Cook.


In the first six months of 2018 Summerset reported a record development margin of 33%, up

from 28% for the same period last year. Mr Cook noted that “the development margin result is

pleasing but reflects the particular mix of retirement units settled in this period and our long run

expectations for development margin are less than this.”


The total value of assets for the Group grew to NZ$2.4b at 30 June 2018, up 25% on the same

period last year.


Assets include Summerset’s recent purchase of 9.4 hectares of land in Te Awa, Napier. The

proposed village will be Summerset’s fourth in Hawke’s Bay and will provide around 320 homes.

The company has also bought 8.1 hectares near Ngamotu Golf Course in New Plymouth, with



plans to build a retirement village offering around 300 homes. This will be Summerset’s second

New Plymouth village.


“We delivered 165 new homes this half year and we are on target to meet our build rate of 450

homes for the year. This is despite continuing pressure from the Auckland construction market.

Our key construction activity in Auckland is to complete our Hobsonville village, main apartment

buildings at Ellerslie, and new villa builds at Karaka and Warkworth,” said Mr Cook.


Residents have also moved into the first homes at Summerset’s Casebrook (Christchurch) and

Rototuna (Hamilton) villages over the first half of 2018.


Summerset recently received resource consent for its proposed Avonhead village in

Christchurch, and is awaiting the outcome of consent applications for proposed villages in

Boulcott (Lower Hutt) and Kenepuru (Wellington). Resource consent for our proposed village in

St Johns (Auckland) has recently been declined.


“We are currently working through this decision but remain confident we will be able to progress

a successful village on this site.


“There is strong demand for all of these villages and we are keen to progress them as soon as

possible”, Mr Cook said.


In May, Summerset announced additional staff benefits including a day of leave for staff

birthdays, travel voucher prizes each quarter and paid sick leave from the first day of

employment. These complement the staff benefits announced in 2017.


“Pleasingly we’ve seen the staff attrition rate at our villages drop by 8% in the last 12 months,

and the company-wide attrition rate has reduced almost 7% over the same period. We believe

this is a result of both the investment we are making in our staff and the Government’s equal pay

settlement,” said Mr Cook.


“However we are seeing the shortages in care staff increase due to the changes introduced to

immigration last year by the previous Government. We believe it is important the current

Government recognises the importance of immigration alongside local training and development

to ensure there are sufficient qualified and competent people in the aged care sector.”


Summerset continues to investigate the feasibility of an Australian expansion. It has opened an

office in Melbourne with a dedicated team who are working through the appropriate diligence

process. The company noted that good progress was being made and further updates will be

made when appropriate.


The board has declared an unimputed interim dividend of NZ 6.0 cents per share. The record

date will be Tuesday 28 August 2018 and payment date Monday 10 September 2018.

Financial results

1H18 reported profit (IFRS)
1H18 net profit after tax of $82.0m with total revenue up 29%

1H18 results presentation

23

IFRS NPAT of $82.0m, down $8.3m or 9% relative to 1H17

Lower IFRS profit result for the half due to a lower fair value

movement in investment property –refer to next slide for further

details

Total revenue of $65.7m, up $15.0m or 29% relative to 1H17

1H18 expenses are driven from a mix of growth in new and

developing villages, additional operating costs in existing villages

(including the impact of pay equity and the introduction of our

premium food offering to residents), and project-specific costs

Net finance costs of $5.4m are down 2% relative to 1H17 principally

due to costs associated with the re-financing of banking facilities

recognised in 1H17

inflation on existing retirement units within the portfolio

resulting in uplift in operators interest

New retirement units built ($44.8m): value of new

retirement units delivered in 1H18

Refurbishment cost assumptions ($7.9m): uplift in

refurbishment cost assumption used by valuer

Discount rates ($4.4m) and growth rates ($0.2m): change

in assumptions used by valuer

Other movements ($1.2m): changes in all other valuation

assumptions

Interim dividend

1H18 interim dividend
Summerset board declares 1H18 interim dividend

1H18 results presentation

32

The Summerset Board have declared an interim dividend of 6.0 cents per share, unimputed. This compares to a 2017 interim dividend of 3.9

cents per share

This represents a pay-out for the first half of 2018 of approximately $13.5m

This pay-out is 30% of 1H18 underlying profit

The dividend reinvestment plan (DRP) will apply to this dividend enabling shareholders to take shares in lieu of the cash dividend

A discount of 2% will be applied when determining the price per share of shares issued under the DRP

Eligible investors wishing to take up the DRP must register by 5pm NZT on Wednesday the 29

th

of August 2018. Any applications received

on or after this time will be applied to subsequent dividends

The interim dividend will be paid on Monday the 10

th

of September 2018. The record date for final determination of entitlements to the interim

dividend is Tuesday the 28

th

of August 2018

The dividend policy remains 30% to 50% of underlying profit for the full year period. As previously indicated, dividend payments are likely to

continue to be at the bottom end of this range given the growth opportunities present for the business at this time

Joint Chair and

CEO's Report

Welcome to Summerset’s half year report for the six months ended 30 June

2018. We are pleased to report that we have performed well, with good

financial results for shareholders alongside delivery of initiatives that will

continue to enhance the experience of our residents and staff.

In the first half of 2018, we recorded $82.0 million net

profit after tax, down 9% on the same period last year,

and $45.2 million underlying profit, up 27% on the first six

months of 2017. We now have more than 5,000 residents

who call Summerset home. These residents are

supported by more than 1,300 staff.

A total of 165 new retirement units were built in the

period. There were 145 new sales and 154 resales

in the six months to 30 June. A total of 37% of sales were

in Auckland, while 63% were across the rest of New

Zealand. The company’s development margin for

1H2018 was 33%, up from 28% for the same period

in 2017.

While new sales have been lower in the first half of 2018

than the corresponding period for 2017, we are seeing

good levels of contracts on homes – both on resales and

homes to be completed before the end of 2018 – and

strong development margins on the homes that have

settled over the first half of 2018. Resales volumes

continue to track well across all areas of the country,

including the Auckland market, despite the flattening

residential property market.

Growth and development

We continue to expand our offering at a number of sites

around the country. Residents have moved into the first

homes at our Casebrook (Christchurch) and Rototuna

(Hamilton) villages in the first half. We have also recently

received resource consent for our proposed Avonhead

(Christchurch) village, which will offer more than 260

homes and will include our award-winning memory care

concept for people living with dementia.

We continue to progress our Boulcott village in Lower

Hutt and have applied to Hutt City Council for resource

consent. This village will provide much-needed

accommodation and care to older people in the area as

there are limited options currently. The village will also

play a vital role in freeing up housing for the wider

community. We have a long wait list of people already

interested in the village. In addition, we have applied for

resource consent for our Kenepuru village in northern

Wellington. We hope to progress our consent

applications for these villages as quickly as possible.

The pressure we have seen in the Auckland construction

market is not reducing, although we remain on track to

deliver 450 retirement units across New Zealand this

year. Our construction focus in Auckland is to complete

our Hobsonville village, the main apartment buildings at

Pg 11
the Ellerslie village, and new villa builds at our Karaka and

Warkworth villages.

We continue to progress with the planning and design

of our two greenfield Auckland sites in Parnell and

St Johns. Resource consent for our proposed village in

St Johns has recently been declined. We are currently

working through this decision but remain confident we

will be able to progress a successful village on this site.

As with our Boulcott village, there is strong demand

already for homes in the village, which, if approved, will

consist of 344 homes.

Our Parnell site is strategically located beside the Parnell

train station, with close links to the Auckland Domain,

Parnell village and Auckland CBD. Given the higher

building density expected on this site, its strategic

location and the unique nature of the project, we have

appointed Warren and Mahoney as our lead architects

for the village. Concept planning has progressed well

and we are starting to prepare the appropriate resource

consent applications.

In April, we purchased our fourth Hawke’s Bay site on

Eriksen Road, Te Awa. The 9 hectare property is close to

the popular 18-hole Maraenui Golf Club, the coastline

along Marine Parade, and is about 4km south of

Napier’s CBD. We have also purchased land to build our

second New Plymouth village. The proposed 8.1 hectare

site is close to the coast, and is about 7km east of

New Plymouth’s CBD. It has sea views and outlook to

Mount Taranaki.

Our investigation into possible Australian expansion

continues and we are making good progress. We will

continue to work through the appropriate diligence

required, and will make further announcements

regarding the nature and timing of this expansion

as appropriate.

Our people

In May, we introduced additional staff benefits to further

strengthen our employee offering. Our range of staff

benefits includes free health insurance, funeral cover,

travel voucher prizes, discounts at a range of Summerset

suppliers, a free staff share scheme, sick leave from the

first day of employment, a day of leave on a staff

member's birthday, contributions to staff charity

fundraising efforts and various types of special leave,

including domestic abuse leave.

Pleasingly, we have seen the staff attrition rate at our

villages drop by 8% in the last 12 months. The company-

wide attrition rate has reduced almost 7% over the same

period. We believe this is a result of both the continued

investment we are making in our staff and the

Government’s equal pay settlement.

We are starting to see shortages in care workers in some

areas, and believe the immigration changes introduced

by the previous Government are causing this. We believe

it is important that the current Government recognises

the importance of immigration alongside local training

and development. This will ensure we have trained,

competent and caring staff available to look after our

older people. We have watched closely the pay

settlement for public sector nurses and will be making

the appropriate adjustments for our own nurses.

Our health and safety vision is that every staff member

goes home safely without harm each day. We continue

to implement measures to achieve this. Most recently,

following a trial of compulsory gloves for all construction

workers on site in Casebrook, Christchurch, we are now

introducing this practice in all our new construction sites.

The second half of the year will see the rollout of new

uniforms to our village staff. There will be more detail to

come on the uniforms themselves, but we look forward

to presenting our staff with a uniform that is designed to

be fit for purpose and that they will be proud to wear.

We have also made a significant investment in our

Human Resources Information System. This will see the

complete implementation of a new payroll system later

this year. This is being rolled out in two stages; the first

stage affected head office and construction staff in May.

The second stage is currently underway in our villages.

This will eliminate a large number of manual and

cumbersome processes and is one of a number of

systems-related investments we have been making in

the business.

Recent media around the Australian Prudential

Regulation Authority's investigation into the

Commonwealth Bank of Australia showed significant

shortcomings in governance, culture and accountability.

This report came out in the midst of a number of

revelations seen in the Australian inquiry into practices

in the banking sector. We have considered the relevance

of these for our business. A particular focus for us is

ensuring the voice of our customer is heard.

Summerset’s CEO and General Manager Operations and

Customer Experience visit all our villages each year to

talk to residents face to face. Board members also visit

villages on a regular basis to engage directly with

residents and staff. These are critical points of interaction

with our customers. In addition, we have subject matter

experts on key board committees, an annual resident

satisfaction survey, structured quarterly meetings with

friends and families of care residents, and our own

clinical quality audit team reviewing care centre

performance. We have also recently appointed a

Customer Advocate, who assists in ensuring

management are hearing from, and listening to, our

residents. However, we note that complacence is an

ever-present risk and we will continue to test and

challenge our approach in this area.

Our residents

In September 2017, we began the rollout of our new

resident management system, VCare, which is

a New Zealand-made software system specifically

designed for retirement villages and care centres. VCare

has now been introduced in all our villages, replacing our

previous internally developed system. We are currently

implementing the clinical care functionality of VCare

and will train more than 800 care staff in VCare this year.

The move from a paper-based system to an electronic

one allows all vital care-related information to be

recorded in one place, from charts and measurements,

to progress notes from our staff and visiting GPs or

physiotherapists. Our caregivers will be using iPads to

access and update resident information. To date, the

rollout of the care functionality has gone well. We will

provide an update on this in the full year report.

Earlier this year, we introduced a new food service to

our villages. Three regionally based caterers, White Tie

Health Services, Kerr and Ladbrook and Cater Plus,

together with an in-house team at our Levin and

Paraparaumu villages, offer locally sourced, wholesome

food prepared onsite for our Divine cafés, Divine

at Home service and our care centres. Food is a very

important part of a resident’s experience and we

focused on getting the right providers for our villages.

We have partnered with both Bowls New Zealand and

New Zealand Indoor Bowls, which we think is a perfect

alignment with our purpose of bringing the best of life to

residents. Through these partnerships we are helping

bring players together to enjoy two popular sports,

including the many Summerset residents who play for

a local bowls club. We hope many more will discover

the joy of the game.

Looking ahead

As Summerset continues to grow, we want to ensure we

are responsible about the environmental impact of

our villages, so are pleased we will be working towards

Certified Emissions Measurement and Reduction

Scheme certification. The scheme allows us to measure

our greenhouse gas emissions accurately and put in

place strategies to manage and reduce our impact on

the environment. We are currently collecting data to help

measure the carbon footprint at our offices and villages,

with the intention of completing a verification audit

by the end of the year before setting short, medium and

long term reduction targets.

It is a pleasure to present this report to our investors.

Summerset will continue to work hard to deliver high-

quality retirement living for our residents and

subsequent financial results that benefit our investors,

residents and staff.

Notes to the

Financial Statements

For the six months ended 30 June 2018

1. Summary of accounting policies

The interim financial statements presented for the six months ended 30 June 2018 are for Summerset Group Holdings Limited ("the

Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, “the Group”). The Group develops, owns and operates integrated retirement villages,

rest homes, memory care centres and hospitals for older New Zealanders.

Summerset Group Holdings Limited is registered in New Zealand under the Companies Act 1993 and is an FMC Reporting Entity for

the purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The reporting entity is listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange (NZX),

being the Company’s primary exchange, and is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) as a foreign exempt listing.

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand

(NZ GAAP), except for note 2 Non-GAAP underlying profit. NZ GAAP in this instance being New Zealand Equivalents to International

Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and is in compliance with NZ IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 – Interim

Financial Reporting.

These interim financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as, and should be read in conjunction

with, the Group’s financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017. During the period, NZ IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts

with customers has been adopted with no impact on the accounting policies or disclosures of the Group. The interim financial

statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 are unaudited. They are presented in New Zealand dollars, which is the Group’s

functional currency. All financial information has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

Segment reporting

The Group operates in one industry, being the provision of integrated retirement villages in New Zealand. The services provided

across all of the Group's villages are similar, as are the type of customer and the regulatory environment. The chief operating decision

makers, the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Directors, review the operating results of the Group as a whole on a regular

basis. On this basis, the Group has one reportable segment, and the Group results are the same as the results of the reportable

segment. All resource allocation decisions across the Group are made to optimise the consolidated Group's result.

The Group is considering expansion into Australia. To date, the expenditure incurred has been immaterial to the Group and relates

primarily to consultancy and employment costs associated with considering the expansion.

Underlying profit45,21635,65381,663

Pg 21
Underlying profit differs from NZ IFRS profit for the period. The Directors have provided an underlying profit measure in addition to

IFRS profit measures to assist readers in determining the realised and non-realised components of fair value movement of investment

property and tax expense in the Group’s income statement. The measure is used internally in conjunction with other measures to

monitor performance and make investment decisions. Underlying profit is an industry-wide measure that the Group uses

consistently across reporting periods. Underlying profit determines the dividend payout to shareholders.

This statement is for the Group, prepared in accordance with the Basis of preparation: underlying profit, described below.

Basis of preparation: underlying profit

Underlying profit is determined by taking profit for the period determined under NZ IFRS, adjusted for the impact of the following:

a)Less fair value movement of investment property: reversal of investment property valuation changes recorded in NZ IFRS

profit for the period, which comprise both realised and non-realised valuation movements. This is reversed and replaced with

realised development margin and realised resale gains during the period, effectively removing the unrealised component

of the fair value movement of investment property.

b)Less reversal of impairment on land: remove the impact of non-cash care centre valuation changes recorded in NZ IFRS profit

for the period. Care centres are valued every three years (last valued as at 31 December 2017), with fair value gains flowing

through to the revaluation reserve unless the gain offsets a previous impairment to fair value that was recorded in NZ IFRS

profit for the period. Where there is any impairment of a care centre, or reversal of a previous impairment that impacts NZ

IFRS profit for the period, this is eliminated for the purposes of determining underlying profit.

c)Add realised resale gains: add the realised gains across all resales of occupation rights during the period. The realised gain

for each resale is determined to be the difference between the licence price for the previous occupation right for a retirement

unit and the occupation right resold for that same retirement unit during the period. Realised resale gains are a measure of

the cash generated from increases in selling prices of occupation rights to incoming residents, less cash amounts repaid to

vacated residents for the repayment of the price of their refundable occupation right purchased in an earlier period. Realised

resale gains exclude deferred management fees and refurbishments.

d)Add realised development margin: add realised development margin across all new sales of occupation rights during the

period, the recognition point being the cash settlement. Realised development margin is the margin earned on the first-time

sale of an occupation right following the development of a retirement unit. The margin for each new sale is determined to be

the licence price for the occupation right, less the cost of developing that retirement unit.

Components of the cost of developing retirement units include directly attributable construction costs and a proportionate

share of the following costs:

•infrastructure costs;

•land cost on the basis of the purchase price of the land;

•interest incurred during the build period; and

•head office costs directly related to the construction of retirement units.

All costs above include non-recoverable GST.

Development margin excludes the costs of developing common areas of the main building within the retirement village

(including a share of the proportionate costs listed above). This is because these areas are assets that support the sale of

occupation rights, for not just the new sale but for all subsequent resales. It also excludes the costs of developing care centres,

which are treated as property, plant and equipment for accounting purposes. These costs are both excluded in line with

industry standard.

e)Add deferred tax expense: reversal of the impact of deferred taxation.

Underlying profit does not include any adjustments for abnormal items or fair value movements on financial instruments that are

included in NZ IFRS profit for the period.

The Group has deemed it is unable to reliably determine the fair value of the non-land aspects of retirement villages under

development at 30 June 2018 and therefore these are carried at cost. This equates to $213.7 million of investment property (Jun

2017: $181.5 million; Dec 2017: $171.5 million).

The fair value of investment property as at 30 June 2018 was determined by CBRE Limited, an independent registered valuer. The

fair value of the Group’s investment property is determined on a semi-annual basis, based on market values, being the estimated

amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s

length transaction after proper marketing, wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

To assess the fair value of the Group’s interest in the village, CBRE has undertaken a cashflow analysis to derive a net present value.

A desktop valuation was completed as at 30 June 2018. There has been no change in valuation technique since the previous full

valuation which was completed as at 31 December 2017 (next full valuation due as at 31 December 2018).

Significant assumptions used by the valuer include a discount rate of between 13.5% and 16.5% (Jun 2017: between 13.75% and 16%;

Dec 2017: between 13.5% and 16%) and a long-term nominal house price inflation rate of between 0% and 3.5% (Jun 2017 and Dec

2017: between 0% and 3.5%). Other assumptions used by the valuer include the average entry age of residents and occupancy

periods of units.

Pg 23
As the fair value of investment property is determined using inputs that are unobservable, the Group has categorised investment

property as Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy in accordance with NZ IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement.

Sensitivity analysis to significant changes in unobservable inputs within Level 3 of the hierarchy

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement categorised within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy of

the entity’s portfolios of investment property are the discount rate, the long-term nominal house price inflation rate, the average

entry age of residents and the occupancy period of units. A significant decrease (increase) in the discount rate or the occupancy

period of units would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement and a significant increase (decrease) in the

average entry age of residents, or the long-term nominal house price inflation rate would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair

value measurement.

Security

As at 30 June 2018, all investment property relating to Summerset’s village companies (being the 23 retirement village companies

registered under the Retirement Villages Act 2003) is subject to a first-ranking registered mortgage in favour of the Statutory

Supervisor (Public Trust). That mortgage secures the rights that Summerset’s residents have under their occupation right

agreements.

swaps at 30 June 2018 (Jun 2017: 69%; Dec 2017: 89%).

The secured bank loan facility as at 30 June 2018 has a maximum limit of $500.0 million (Jun 2017: $600.0 million; Dec 2017:

$500.0 million). Lending of $285.0 million expires in August 2020 and $215.0 million of lending expires in March 2022.

The retail bonds were issued for $100.0 million and have a maturity date of 11 July 2023. The retail bonds are listed on the NZX Debt

Market (NZDX) with the ID SUM010.

Security

The bank loans and retail bonds rank equally with the Group’s other unsubordinated obligations and are secured by the following

securities, held by a security trustee:

•a first-ranking registered mortgage over all land and permanent buildings owned (or leased under a registered lease) by

guaranteeing Group members that are not registered retirement villages;

•a second-ranking registered mortgage over the land and permanent buildings owned (or leased under a registered lease) by

each registered retirement village that is a guaranteeing Group member (behind a first-ranking registered mortgage in favour

of the Statutory Supervisor); and

•the General Security Deed, which secures all assets of the guaranteeing Group members , but in respect of which the Statutory

Supervisor has first rights to the proceeds of security enforcement against all assets of the registered retirement villages to

which the security trustee is entitled.

8. Dividends

On 22 March 2018, a dividend of 7.1 cents per ordinary share was paid to shareholders (2017: on 22 March 2017 a dividend of 5.1

cents per ordinary share was paid to shareholders and on 11 September 2017 a dividend of 3.9 cents per ordinary share was paid to

shareholders).

A dividend reinvestment plan applied to the dividend paid on 22 March 2018 and 810,284 ordinary shares were issued in relation to

the plan (2017: 687,184 ordinary shares were issued in relation to the plan for the 22 March 2017 dividend and 593,876 ordinary shares

were issued in relation to the plan for the 11 September 2017 dividend).

9. Capital commitments and contingencies

Capital commitments

At 30 June 2018, the Group had capital commitments in relation to construction contracts of $67.3 million (Jun 2017: $61.9 million;

Dec 2017: $63.9 million).

Contingent liabilities

There were no known material contingent liabilities at 30 June 2018 (Jun 2017: none; Dec 2017: none).

10. Subsequent events

On 23 July 2018, 95,996 shares were issued under the Group’s all-staff employee share plan at $7.7435 per share. The shares are

held by Summerset LTI Trustee Limited and vest to participating employees after a three-year period, subject to meeting the criteria

of the plan.

On 13 August 2018, the Directors approved an interim dividend of $13.5 million, being 6.0 cents per share. The dividend record date

is 28 August 2018, with payment on 10 September 2018.

In July 2018, a piece of land was purchased at Pohutukawa Place for our second site in New Plymouth.

There have been no other events subsequent to 30 June 2018 that materially impact on the results reported.

Review Report to the Shareholders of Summerset Group Holdings Limited (“the company”) and its subsidiaries

(together “the group”)

We have reviewed the interim financial statements on pages 14 to 26, which comprise the statement of financial position of the

group as at 30 June 2018 and the income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and

statement of cash flows of the group for the six month period ended on that date, and a summary of significant accounting policies

and other explanatory information.

This report is made solely to the company's shareholders, as a body. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to

the company's shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in a review report and for no other purpose. To the

fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's

shareholders as a body, for our review work, for this report, or for our findings.

Directors’ Responsibilities

The directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of interim financial statements which comply with New

Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting and for such internal control as the directors

determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial statements that are free from material

misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Reviewer’s Responsibilities

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our review. We conducted our review in

accordance with NZ SRE 2410 Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. NZ SRE 2410

requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the financial statements, taken

as a whole, are not prepared in all material respects, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting

Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting. As the auditor of the group, NZ SRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical

requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial statements.

Basis of Statement

A review of interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 is a limited assurance engagement. The auditor performs

procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and

applying analytical and other review procedures.

The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit conducted in accordance with

International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand). Accordingly we do not express an audit opinion on those financial statements.

Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interests in, the group.

Conclusion

Based on our review nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial statements,

set out on pages 14 to 26, do not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the group as at 30 June 2018 and its

financial performance and cash flows for the six month period ended on that date in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to

International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting

Comments: A brief See also other attached documents (half year

report, media release, results presentation and

Appendix 7).


Underlying profit differs from NZ IFRS net profit

after tax. The directors have provided an

underlying profit measure to assist readers in

determining the realised and non-realised

components of fair value movement of investment

property and tax expense in the group’s income

statement. The measure is used internally in

conjunction with other measures to monitor

performance and make investment decisions.

Underlying profit is an industry wide measure

which the group uses consistently across reporting

periods.
