NZ IFRS 15 Revenue from Customers

NZ IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaced NZ IAS 18

Revenue, NZ IAS 11 Construction Contracts and related interpretations.

The Group has adopted NZ IFRS 15 using the retrospective effect method (with practical expedients), with the effect of initially applying this

standard recognised at the date of initial application being 1 April 2018.



All available practical expedients have been utilised where applicable and the estimated effect on the financial statements of applying the

expedients has been nil other than the restatement described above and the reclassification of contract assets and contract liabilities in the

Statement of Financial Position.

Current contract assets represent revenue where the service has been provided but not yet invoiced to the customer. When the customer has

been invoiced, any outstanding balances are included in receivables. Non current contract assets represent capitalised contract acquisition

costs. Contract liabilities reflect payments received for services that have not yet been provided and the payments will be recognised as

revenue over time.

Costs directly related to the acquisition of a contract or renewal of an existing contract are capitalised and amortised over the life of the

contract.

Green Cross Health (NZX: GXH)

Half Year Result Announcement for the six months ending 30 September 2018.


GREEN CROSS HEALTH GROWTH CONTINUES

27 November 2018, AUCKLAND, NZ: Listed primary health care provider Green Cross Health, the

group behind Unichem and Life Pharmacy, The Doctors and Access Community Health, has reported a

9% increase in Revenue to $282m in the six months to 30 September 2018 compared to the prior

period. Net Profit after tax attributable to shareholders was $8.1 million, compared to $8.8 million

in the prior period.

Result Summary:

• Revenue of $282m up 9%

• EBITDA at $18.4m down 5.2%

• Operating Profit $14.9m down 9.5%

• Net Profit after tax attributable to shareholders of $8.1m down 7.1%

• Pharmacy Revenue growth of 2.2% but Operating Profit down 3.8% at $13.9m

• Medical performed strongly with Revenue up 37.5% and Operating Profit up 32.4% to $2.0 m

• Revenue growth in Community Health up 15.3% but Operating Profit down $1.1m to $0.3m

• Operating Cash Flow returned to normal level at $8.8m

• Net Debt $44.1m up $5.6m primarily due to investment in new acquisitions

• Interim Dividend consistent with prior period at 3.5 cents per share.

Green Cross Health chair Peter Merton, says, “In a challenging health care funding and retail

environment we have delivered a reasonable underlying performance and are growing our share of

the primary health care market. Sales growth across all divisions is pleasing and the medical

contribution is starting to show the benefits of the investments of recent years. Our focus on cost

control and pricing in our pharmacy business has delivered good results.”

In October Green Cross Health announced the appointment of Rachael Newfield to a newly created

position as Group Chief Executive Officer. She will commence in her role in January 2019.

Pharmacy Division

Pharmacy Revenue increased 2.2% to $170.0m, with Operating Profit down 3.8% at $13 .9m.

External challenges impacted pharmacy profitability including major infrastructure works in the

Auckland CBD, mall redevelopments, and a record low cold and flu season. As a result, retail sales in



2

the cough/cold and pain categories were down 8.6% year-on-year. Conversely, the beauty categories

saw a 7.2% year-on-year increase.

Overall, same store sales growth was up 2.1%. However, due to the change in sales mix and increased

promotional activity, all store gross margin was down 2.1% to 34.8%.

During the period, a new pharmacy services agreement with the Government was put in place

providing certainty of funding for dispensing medicines and a framework for commissioning of local

services, such as long-term conditions management and health coaching. This new agreement

included an industry wide funding increase of $20m for volume, cost pressure and additional services.

While the retail environment continues to provide customers with increasing choice, Green Cross

Health will remain focused on its core retail disciplines, expanding its e-commerce and digital

engagement utilising the Living Rewards loyalty programme, and operational efficiency.

The pharmacy network continues to grow with 362 Unichem and Life Pharmacies with the addition of

five Licensees in the period.

Medical Division

Medical Revenue increased 37.5% to $34.3m, with Operating Profit up by 32.4% to $2.0m, driven by

improved operational efficiency and successful acquisitions.

Organic growth and three newly acquired medical centres in the period resulted in an increase in

enrolled patients of 18 ,480 or 8% since March 2018 to 255,000. Medical also increased its investment

in two associate medical centre businesses moving to majority interest.

Operationally, Medical continued to roll out initiatives to provide improved patient access and

operational efficiency.

The Doctors network now numbers 41 medical centres, up 10 from this time last year. Increasing

scale and operational capability in Medical is core to Green Cross Health’s growth strategy.

Community Health Division

Revenue growth in Community Health continued, up 15.3% to $78 .1m. Excluding the increase in

revenue from funding for support worker wages, under the Pay Equity settlement, the revenue

increase was 8.2%.



3

Revenue growth did not translate to profit due to the continued shortfall in funding and an increase

in leave liability due to Pay Equity. Discussions continue between industry representatives and the

Ministry of Health and District Health Boards on this issue.

The Community Health Segmental Operating Profit was $0.3m, down from $1.4m.

Targeting the higher clinical needs segments, exiting unprofitable contracts and operational

efficiency will lead to improved profitability.

Future Focus

Looking forward, Merton says, “We remain focused on providing accessible, quality primary health
