CDI: 2018 Interim Report

Earnings Results13 September 2018CDIReal Estate

INTERIM REPORT 2018

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
The Directors of CDL Investments New Zealand Limited (“CDI”) advise that the Company has made

an unaudited operating profit after tax of $25.47 million for the six month period ending 30 June

2018 (2017: $20.39 million). Operating profit before tax was $35.38 million (2017: $28.32 million).

Property sales and other income for the period was $60.23 million (2017: $51.04 million). Net Asset

Backing (at cost) for the period under review was 72.8 cents per share (2017: 62.8 cents per share).

PORTFOLIO UPDATE:

As advised at the annual meeting of shareholders, CDI has settled agreements for over 100 hectares

of land in Hamilton and Christchurch to further its development projects in the medium term.

CDI recorded strong sales from Hamilton, Canterbury and Auckland notably at the Magellan

Heights, Prestons Park and Greville Road subdivisions respectively. Further stages will be

progressively developed to meet demand.

As part of the Prestons Park project, CDI is also looking at developing small scale commercial

tenancies for lease on its land to enhance the amenity value of its holdings as well as produce

a new income stream for CDI. Management is working with designers and agents to secure

potential tenants with a view to commencing leases in 2020.

COMMENTARY AND OUTLOOK:

The Board is pleased with the level of sales activity to date and also pleased to secure land to

ensure its development future in the medium term. Diversification into commercial tenancies will

also provide the company with new possibilities for development in the future.

The Board has noted that forward demand for sections in certain areas is softening but will not

affect CDI’s 2018 performance or results.

With steady demand for high quality residential sections still apparent, we believe that we will

better our 2017 year end results at this stage.

On 19 March 2018, NZX also granted CDI a waiver from Listing Rule 5.2.3 in respect of its ordinary shares

for a period of twelve months from 19 March 2018 (the Ordinary Shares Waiver).

Listing Rule 5.2.3 provides that a class of securities will generally not be considered for quotation unless

NZX granted the Ordinary Shares Waiver on the following conditions:

(a) that the Company clearly and prominently discloses the waiver, its conditions and the implications in its

half-year and annual reports and in any offer documents relating to any offer of shares undertaken by CDI

during the period of the waiver;
