CEO’s
summary
Operating performance
The first six months results reflect the continued progress the company
is making, both in terms of financial performance and in completing
two key strategic initiatives outlined over the last 12 to 18 months.
The completion of the Mt Difficulty purchase was extremely satisfying
against a background of significant uncertainty with the gaining of OIO
approval. However our tenacity paid off and the Government approved
the transaction in December 2018. As a consequence of this approval,
we were delighted that Lion NZ Ltd (Lion) subscribed for their
shareholding in our company.
The partnership with Lion is a critical component of our growth
strategy in New Zealand. The initial period of the partnership is 10
years which enables us to work together to formulate a long term
strategy of building our brands in New Zealand.
The financial results show an improved performance across the board.
Operating earnings (or underlying profit) is a key metric we focus on
due to the complexities around the accounting standards in terms of fair
value adjustments. We believe that focussing on operating earnings
gives our investors the best metric when comparing one year with
another.
In the first six months our operating profit of $2.387m was up 145.8%
compared with the previous year. Operating cash flow of $4.936m was
up 17.2% as a result of improved sales in the period.
Profit for the period net of tax attributable for the shareholders was
$1.672m, up 461% compared with $0.298m the previous year.

Export sales growth
Our overall export cases (packaged) shipped grew by 46.8% for the
period. This compares very favourably to recently published data from
New Zealand Wine Growers indicating that packaged wine export
volumes for the industry declined by 0.5%.
It is particularly pleasing to see our relationships with trading partners
in key markets continue to gain strength. This is testament to two key
factors. First and foremost is the quality of our world-class portfolio,
which is gaining attention world-wide. Secondly, we now have the
ability to supply brands from our five wineries and distillery, across
three acclaimed regions, in one shipment. For trading partners who
increasingly want to reduce the number of suppliers they deal with,
having one point of contact for such a diverse, high quality portfolio
offers real value.
In January it was resolved to consolidate all our USA business to Foley
Family Wines Inc. (FFW USA), a business owned by Bill Foley and his
family. This represents an exciting new era for our brands with access
to over 150 sales personnel employed by the Foley Group in the USA,
plus the addition of two new dedicated personal committed to our New
Zealand portfolio. Mt Difficulty will also transition to FFW USA during
the next period. The USA represents a critical market for us and we are
very optimistic about what we can achieve with access to this
significant network.

New Zealand – in line
with expectations
59,000 dozen, -25%.
Our New Zealand performance reflected disruption as we moved the
majority of our business to Lion and is in line with expectations. In our
annual report we stated that we needed to implement a new pricing
and promotional strategy in New Zealand when Lion was appointed.
We are pleased to report that while our volume has decreased by 25%
for the first six months our margin per case from New Zealand sales is
up 100%.
We expect it will take some time to rebuild our volume to previous
levels. However, we have transitioned from a box moving mentality to
one of long-term brand building. Once we do achieve our previous
level of New Zealand sales it will materially affect our financial
performance.
Page 22 sets out the breakdown of the consideration for Mt Difficulty.
Mt Difficulty case sales for the six months ended 31 December was
41,000 at average case realisation of $150 (excluding excise tax).
Please note these case sales are not included within our financials.
At the time of due diligence it was estimated that Mt Difficulty would
generate EBITDA in the range of $5m to $6m. While some time has
elapsed since this work was completed, we do not have any reason to
think that this isn’t achievable for the year ended 30 June 2020.
Naturally exchange rates, 2019 harvest and timing of the cellar door
redevelopment are factors to be considered.

Positive outlook on vintage,
volumes and earnings.
Outlook
We are pleased to report that the wineries are empty going into harvest
with no holdover wines as a result of strong sales. This means we have
the ability to maximise the winery capacity, which will have a positive
impact on cost of goods.
Our teams in all regions are expecting high quality fruit at volumes
which will allow us to fill our wineries. While there are some reports of
concerns in the industry regarding a lack of water having a bearing on
yields, we are in a good position in terms of water management.
In terms of earnings guidance, we have already achieved 87% of the
full year underlying earnings of the previous year of $2.752m. On this
basis we are working hard to achieve approximately $5m of operating
earnings in the full year inclusive of all costs associated with the
Mt Difficulty transaction. We must be mindful that exchange rates can
have a significant affect and in particular the Australian dollar has
adversely affected profitability in recent times.

SIX MONTHS OF DELIVERING ON PROMISES
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27 2019 – The Foley Wines Limited (FWL) Half Yearly Report to
December 31 2018, published to the New Zealand Stock Exchange today, represents another period of
significant progress.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Bottled sales revenue $21.1m 13.8%
• Operating earnings $2.387m 145.8%
• Export Cases 210,000 dozen 46.8%
• Profit for period after tax $1.672m 461%
• Operating cash flow $4.936m 17.2%
• Completion of Mt Difficulty purchase on 3 January 2019
• Lion NZ Ltd subscribed for shares in FWL
Mark Turnbull, Foley Wines CEO said, “It’s satisfying to have delivered on our promises; the
purchase of Mt Difficulty, entering into a long term strategic partnership with Lion, and moving to the
NZX main board.”
“The NZX listing enables New Zealanders to participate in our business moving forward, which has
been Bill Foley’s intention since he began investing here.”
Packaged exports were up 46.8% with strong growth in Australia, the USA & Canada, and the UK &
Europe. This compared very favourably to recently published data from New Zealand Wine Growers
indicating that packaged wine export volumes for the industry declined by 0.5%.
“It is particularly pleasing to see our relationships with trading partners in key markets continue to
gain strength. Increasingly these customers want to reduce the number of suppliers they deal with, so
having one point of contact for such a diverse, high quality portfolio across three acclaimed regions
offers real value,” said Turnbull.
“Export growth is a key criteria for gaining overseas investment approvals and clearly we’re well on
our way to delivering this objective.”
Bill Foley, Chairman of Foley Wines said, “We now have a world-class portfolio of wines from New
Zealand. Over the past 12 months my team here in the USA has made some real progress and we are
focused on taking the New Zealand brands to a new level. We are taking on two dedicated personnel
in the USA to support our New Zealand growth strategy in addition to the over 150 sales staff I have
already in the USA”.
New Zealand performance is in line with expectations as a new pricing and promotional strategy is
implemented with Lion New Zealand. While New Zealand volume has decreased by 25% for the first
six months, margin per case from New Zealand sales is up 100%.
Turnbull said, “The partnership with Lion is a critical component of our growth strategy in New
Zealand. The initial period of the partnership is 10 years which enables us to work together to
formulate a long-term strategy of building our brands in New Zealand.”
