EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Delegat Group Limited, I am pleased to present its operating

and financial results for the six months ended 31 December 2018.

DELEGAT INTERIM REPORT 2019 EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

2

The Group presents its financial statements in accordance with the New Zealand equivalents to
International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS).

To provide further insight into the Group’s underlying operational performance, the Group has also

included in this report an Operating Performance Report. This Operating Performance Report excludes

the impact of fair value adjustments required under NZ IFRS for grapes and derivative instruments. As

a fully integrated winemaking and sales operation, Operating Profit includes the fair value adjustment

in respect of grapes when packaged wine is sold rather than on harvest of the grapes, and the fair

value adjustment on derivative instruments when these foreign exchange contracts and interest rate

swaps are realised.

The Group has included a reconciliation of Operating Profit to Reported Profit which eliminates from

each line in the Statement of Financial Performance the impact of these fair value adjustments.

2

OPERATING PERFORMANCE

A record Operating NPAT of $31.4 million was generated compared to $26.9 million for the same

period the previous year. Operating EBIT of $49.8 million is $6.4 million higher than for the same

period the previous year (refer to table 1).

Delegat achieved Operating Revenue of $143.0 million on global case sales of 1,576,000 in the six month

period. Revenue is up $15.4 million on the same period last year due to the 14% increase in global case

sales and the favourable impact of foreign exchange rate changes.

2. Operating Performance is a non-GAAP measure and as such does not have a standardised meaning prescribed by GAAP. It may therefore not be comparable to non-GAAP

measures presented by other entities.

*The financial statements for the periods ended 30 June 2018 and 31 December 2017 have been restated following the adoption of NZ IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with

Customers on 1 July 2018. Refer to Note 1 of the financial statements.

Notes:

2. Operating Gross Profit is before the net fair value movements on biological produce (harvest adjustment) and the NZ IFRS adjustments

excluded in Note 1.

3. Operating Expenses are before fair value movements on derivative instruments (if losses).

4. Operating EBIT, EBITDA and NPAT are before any fair value adjustments.

TABLE 1

OPERATING PERFORMANCE

3

The Group’s case sales performance and foreign currency rates achieved are detailed in table 2.
Operating Gross Margin is up 11% on the same period last year. This is due to the increased case

sales and favourable impact of foreign exchange rate changes. Operating expenses (before NZ IFRS

adjustments) at $28.5 million are $1.2 million higher compared to the same period the previous

year. This is due to the impact of a weaker New Zealand currency on the translation of off-shore

expenditure and an increase in people-related costs.

NZ IFRS FAIR VALUE ADJUSTMENTS

In accordance with NZ IFRS, the Group is required to account for certain of their assets at ‘fair

value’ rather than at historic cost. All movements in these fair values are reflected in and impact the

Statement of Financial Performance. The Group records adjustments in respect of two significant

items at the half-year reporting date, as detailed in table 3:

• Harvest Provision Release (Grapes) – Inventory is valued at market value, rather than costs

incurred, at harvest. Any fair value adjustment is excluded from Operating Performance for the

year, by creating a Harvest Provision. This Harvest Provision is then released through Cost of Sales

when inventory is sold in subsequent years. This represents the reversal of prior periods’ fair value

adjustments in respect of biological produce as finished wine is sold in subsequent years. This

adjustment has resulted in a write-down of $9.8 million for the period (December 2017: write-

down of $8.9 million);

• Derivative Instruments held to hedge the Group’s foreign currency and interest rate exposure.

The mark-to-market movement of these instruments at balance date resulted in a fair value write-

up of $1.3 million (December 2017: write-down of $1.4 million).

The adjustments, net of taxation, amount to a write-down of $6.1 million (December 2017: write-

down of $7.5 million).

RECONCILIATION OF REPORTING TO OPERATING PERFORMANCE

Accounting for all fair value adjustments under NZ IFRS, the Group’s reported unaudited financial

performance for the six months ended 31 December 2018 is reconciled to Operating Profit as

detailed in table 4.

CASH FLOW

The Group generated Cash Flows from Operations of $21.3 million in the current half-year, which is

a decrease of $3.0 million on the same period last year. This decrease is due to the timing of income

tax payments. A total of $18.6 million was paid for additional property, plant and equipment during

the period, including vineyard developments in New Zealand, and development of the Hawke’s Bay

and Marlborough wineries, which will provide earnings growth into the years ahead. The Group

distributed $15.2 million to shareholders in dividends. Additional borrowings of $15.1 million were

drawn down to fund the increased capital investment during the six months.

Notes:

1. Biological Produce (Grapes) is the difference between market value paid for grapes versus the cost to grow grapes. The Harvest Provision is

reversed and only recognised when the finished wine is sold.

2. n/m means not meaningful.

DELEGAT INTERIM REPORT 2019 EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

5

The Group, having secured a $350.0 million syndicated senior debt facility in 2014, is well positioned
to fund its current operations as well as future capital investment in both New Zealand and Australia.

The Group’s Net Debt at 31 December 2018 amounted to $291.5 million, in line with last half-year

and well within the Group’s facility.

LOOKING FORWARD

The results achieved in the six months to December 2018 are testament to the strength of the Group’s

business model. Delegat Group is well positioned to pursue its strategic goal to build a leading

global Super Premium wine company. The Group forecasts to achieve global case sales for the full

year of 3,040,000, up 11% on last year. Based on the prevailing exchange rates, the Group forecasts

a 2019 operating profit result of at least $50.3 million, up on last year’s record performance by 12%.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION
REPORTING ENTITY

The financial statements presented are those of Delegat Group Limited and its subsidiaries (the Group). Delegat

Group Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand and registered under the

Companies Act 1993. The Parent shares are publicly traded on the New Zealand Stock Exchange.

The financial statements for the Group for the six months ended 31 December 2018 were authorised for issue in

accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 25 February 2019.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice

in New Zealand (NZ GAAP), the requirements of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, and NZ IAS 34: Interim

Financial Reporting. Accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements comply with New Zealand

equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards, and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards (NZ

IFRS) as applicable to the Group as a profit-oriented entity.

The interim financial statements are presented in New Zealand Dollars, rounded to the nearest thousand. They are

prepared on a historical cost basis except for derivative financial instruments and biological produce which have been

measured at fair value.

The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with NZ IAS 34 requires the Group to make

judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and

liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and

various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may vary from these

estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting

estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only that period, or in

the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Group holds interest rate swaps at fair value through the statement of financial performance. In estimating the

fair value of the interest rate swaps the Group uses level 2 inputs of the fair value measurement hierarchy. The Group’s

interest rate swaps fall into level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy because their fair value is determined using

inputs, other than quoted prices included in level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly as prices

or indirectly (derived from prices). The fair values are derived through valuation techniques that maximise the use of

observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUED
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, with the exception of the

adoption of NZ IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers and NZ IFRS 9: Financial Instruments on 1 July

2018. Refer to the published financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018 for a complete listing of the Group

accounting policies.

On 1 July 2018, the Group adopted NZ IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, applying the fully retrospective

transition provision. NZ IFRS 15 establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements

about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with

customers. NZ IFRS 15 supersedes NZ IAS 18: Revenue. The changes in NZ IFRS 15 do not have an impact on the timing

of revenue recognition or net profit after tax for the Group, however there are some selling, marketing and promotion

expenses that have been reclassified to revenue as part of the determination of the transaction price under NZ IFRS

15. In accordance with the requirements of NZ IAS 8: Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and

Errors, the financial statements for the periods ended 30 June 2018 and 31 December 2017 have been restated. The

adoption of NZ IFRS 15 has not had an impact on the statement of financial position. The effect on the Group’s financial

statements of the adoption of NZ IFRS 15 has been demonstrated in the table below:

2. SEGMENTAL REPORTING
The Group reviews its operational performance based upon the management and the geographic areas in which their

customers are based. Financial information which is available to management in order to assess segment performance

and investment opportunities is presented on the same basis. In accordance with NZ IFRS 8: Operating Segments this

forms the basis of presentation for Segment Reporting and is the format adopted below:

– Delegat Limited (Delegat) is party to vineyard leases and has interests in freehold land and winery infrastructure

which allows the company to grow, harvest and make finished wine to be marketed, distributed and sold into the

Super Premium wine markets. Delegat sells and markets its product through a combination of subsidiary companies

based overseas or to customers and distributors directly in the New Zealand, Canadian, Asian and Pacific Island

markets. Delegat Australia Pty Limited, Delegat Europe Limited and Delegat USA, Inc. act as distributors and assist

in the marketing of product in their respective geographic regions. Wines are sold all year round to all regions and

the Group considers there is no significant variation in revenues throughout the year.

The Group implements appropriate transfer pricing regimes within the operating segments on an arm’s length basis

in a manner similar to transactions with third parties.

Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making resource

allocations and performance assessments. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss,

which may be measured differently from operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements as segment

reporting is based upon internal management reports. The main differences are a result of some deferred tax balances

being recognised upon consolidation not being allocated to individual subsidiaries. Also intercompany stock margin

eliminations are managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments.
