New Zealand freight and logistics company, TIL Logistics Group Limited (NZX: TLL, “TIL”), has
reported business growth and increasing sales for the 2019 financial year, with results reflecting
investment into growth initiatives and a higher cost base.
Highlights for the FY19 year ended 30 June 2019 included the acquisition of Specialised Lifting and
Transport Group (SLTG), the renewal of two major customer contracts with Z Energy and
Farmlands and the opening of three new warehouses in the second half of the year. The
company’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact continues and TIL was a signatory
to the Climate Leaders Coalition and signed a memorandum of understanding with Hiringa Energy
to develop hydrogen fuel cell technology transport solutions.
Sales revenue for FY19 was $355.1m, up 9%. Revenue gains were delivered across all divisions,
with particularly strong growth from Warehousing & Logistics as new warehousing capacity came
online in the second half of the year. The specialist sector grew significantly following the
acquisition of Specialised Lifting and Transport Group, which delivered additional revenue of
$11.8m. Pleasingly, the Bulk Liquids division also delivered a year on year increase in sales
revenue despite a strong prior year that included one off revenue gains from the pipeline
disruption. Multiple long term fuel delivery contracts were secured in FY19, underpinning the
business going forward.
Operating costs increased to $332.6m, reflecting the higher cost environment, expenses
associated with growth initiatives and a full year of being a listed provider with associated
corporate and governance costs.
The higher operating cost environment has continued and is being managed closely, including
fluctuating fuel prices, road user charges and regional fuel taxes, increased wage costs and higher
costs for parts and equipment due to the lower exchange rate. Unexpected demurrage costs were
also incurred in 2H19.
Growth initiatives have also had a cost impact, with increased property rent costs (particularly
due to expanded warehousing capacity); wages and fleet lease costs; establishment of the Senior
Leadership Team; and higher repairs and maintenance due to new fleet decisions being delayed
into FY19 while new contracts were finalised and tightening legislation.
Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) was up on the prior year to
$25.4m with an increase in adjusted EBITDA to $28.0m. Earnings growth was primarily seen in the
first half, with Freighting, Specialist and International divisions all delivering full year
improvements. Warehousing & Logistics and Bulk Liquids both reflect the costs associated with
growth initiatives that will provide long term value for the business, particularly new warehousing
capacity and set up costs prior to major new customer contracts commencing.
Net Profit After Tax (NPAT) was $4.0m. A profit improvement was delivered in the first half, with
the second half profit gains offset by increased finance costs, depreciation and the $2.6m
additional provision for the deferred acquisition consideration related to MOVE Logistics.
Excluding the deferred acquisition consideration, adjusted NPAT was $6.6m.
The Board has declared a final FY19 fully imputed dividend of 2.5 cps, taking full year dividends to
5.0 cps. The Dividend Reinvestment Plan will be operational for the FY19 final dividend.
CEO of TIL, Alan Pearson, said: “FY19 was a year of business growth with expanded capacity, new
business acquisitions and wins and organic growth. A significant focus for management was the
continuing amalgamation of TIL’s brands and businesses into a cohesive group organisation,
which allows us to offer our customers an end to end supply chain offer.
“TIL is well positioned to continue building on its strengths and the new opportunities that are
available to us as we meet our customers’ needs and enhance their experience of TIL through the
use of technology and consistent quality service delivery.”
Outlook
TIL Logistics is expecting an improved performance in FY20, driven by new customer contracts,
additional warehousing capacity, organic growth and the benefits of FY19 investment into growth
initiatives.
The transport and logistics sector remains fragmented and TIL is well positioned to build both
organically and through carefully selected acquisitions. Opportunities have been identified across
all sectors to improve volumes and utilisation, expand the offer and drive efficiencies.
TIL expects ongoing high demand from the food, rural and building & construction sectors.
Growth opportunities have been identified for all TIL’s divisions, particularly in Specialised,
International and non-fuel Bulk Liquid haulage.
The benefits of FY19 growth initiatives will start to be seen in FY20, with additional warehousing
capacity due to come online later this year, full year benefits from new customer contracts that
commenced in late FY19 and a full year contribution from SLTG. In addition, the restructure of
NZL into separate freighting and transport services will deliver synergy and cost benefits in FY20.
Significant projects will include the opening of a further two warehouses as well as site expansion
in Auckland and implementation of new IT systems for Freighting and Bulk Liquids, which will
drive efficiencies and improve the customer experience.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 5TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. REPORTING ENTITY
The core operations of TIL Logistics Group Limited
(“TIL Logistics” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries
(collectively “the Group”) are in the New Zealand
transport sector. These include general transport,
bulk liquids, heavy haulage, shipping, storage and
distribution, national and international household
removals and storage.
The Company is incorporated and domiciled in New
Zealand, registered under the Companies Act 1993 and
is a FMC Reporting Entity under the Financial Markets
Conduct Act 2013. The Company is listed on the NZX
Main Board.
The registered office of the Company is at 330 Devon
Street East, New Plymouth, New Zealand.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company
as at, and for the year ended, 30 June 2019, comprise
the Company and its subsidiaries (refer note 16.1), and
acquired assets from Transport Investments Limited,
together referred to as the “Group”.
These financial statements were authorised by the
Board of Directors on 22 August 2019.
1.2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
These financial statements have been prepared on a
historical cost basis.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with NZ IFRS requires the use of certain critical
accounting estimates. It also requires Management
to exercise its judgement in the process of applying
the Group’s accounting policies. The areas where
assumptions and estimates are significant to the
consolidated financial statements are disclosed in
note 4.
The principal accounting policies adopted in the
preparation of the financial statements are selected and
applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting
financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance
and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of
the underlying transaction and other events is reported.
These policies have been consistently applied to all the
periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
1.3. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
The Group is a for-profit entity. Its financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with, and comply
with, New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice (NZ GAAP). They comply with New Zealand
Equivalents to International Financial Reporting
Standards and other applicable Financial Reporting
Standards and Authoritive Notices, as appropriate for
for-profit entities. The financial statements comply with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1. CONSOLIDATION
a. Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has
control. The Group controls an entity when the Group
is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its
involvement with the entity, and has the ability to affect
those returns through its power to direct the activities
of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the
date on which control is transferred to the Group. They
are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
The Group uses the acquisition method of accounting
to account for business combinations. The consideration
transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the
fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities
incurred and the equity interest issued by the Group.
The consideration transferred includes the fair value
of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent
consideration arrangement.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and
contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination
are measured initially at their fair values at the
acquisition date. On an acquisition by acquisition basis,
the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the
acquisition either at fair value or at the non-controlling
interests proportionate share of the acquiree’s net
assets. The excess of the consideration transferred, the
amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree,
and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous
equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the
Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired, is
recorded as goodwill.
Contingent consideration is classified either as equity
or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial
liability are subsequently re-measured to fair value with
changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised
gains on transactions between Group companies are
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless
the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of
the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries
have been changed where necessary to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of
subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated
statement of profit or loss & other comprehensive
income, statement of changes in equity and balance
sheet respectively.
b. Associates
Associates are all entities over which the Group
has significant influence but not control, generally
accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50%
of the voting rights. Investments in associates are
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 6TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
accounted for using the equity method of accounting
after initially being recognised at cost. The Group’s
investment in associates includes goodwill identified on
acquisition, net of an accumulated impairment loss. The
Group’s share of its associates post-acquisition profits
or losses is recognised under ‘Share of (loss) / profit
of associates’ in the statement of profit or loss & other
comprehensive income, and its share of post-acquisition
movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The
cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted
against the carrying amount of the investment. When
the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or
exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other
unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise
further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made
payments on behalf of the associate.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group
and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the
Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses
are also eliminated unless the transaction provides
evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
Accounting policies of associates have been changed
where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies
adopted by the Group.
2.2. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
a. Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of
the Group’s entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the
entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The financial
statements are presented in New Zealand dollars
(rounded to thousands), which is the functional and the
presentation currency of all companies in the Group.
b. Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the
functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing
at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange
gains and losses resulting from the settlement of
such transactions and from the translation at year-
end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in
profit or loss.
2.3 NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Except as disclosed below, the accounting policies
adopted are consistent with those in the previous
financial year and corresponding interim reporting
period. Changes to accounting policies have been made
following the adoption of new and amended standards
which came into effect during the period:
• NZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, and
• NZ IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with
Customers.
The impact of the adoption of these standards and the
new accounting policies are disclosed in note 20. There
have been no changes in other accounting standards
that would have a material impact on the financial
statements.
2.4. STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED
A number of new standards, amendments to standards
and interpretations are effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 July 2019, and have not been
applied in preparing these consolidated financial

NZ IFRS 16 Leases - The standard requires lessees to
account for all leases under a single on-balance sheet
model (subject to certain exemptions) in a similar way
to finance leases under NZ IAS 17. Lessees recognise a
liability to pay rentals with a corresponding asset, and
recognise interest expense and depreciation separately.
Lessor accounting is substantially the same as NZ IAS
17’s dual classification approach. Application of NZ IFRS
16 is required for periods beginning on or after 1 January
2019 with early adoption permitted. Management has
performed a preliminary assessment of the impact of
NZ IFRS 16 (refer note 20). The Group’s main significant
operating leases relate to fleet and property.

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise bank loans and overdrafts, cash, trade creditors and accruals and
trade debtors. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise and provide working capital for the Group’s
operations.
This note explains the Group’s exposure to financial risks and how these risks affect the Group’s future financial
performance.
RiskExposure arising fromMeasurement
Credit riskCash and cash equivalents and trade receivablesAging analysis & credit ratings
Market risk - interest rateLong term borrowing at variable ratesSensitivity analysis
Liquidity riskBorrowings and other liabilitiesRolling cash flow forecast
The Group’s risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group Treasury) under policies approved
by the board of directors. Group treasury identifies, evaluates and manages financial risks in close co-operation with the
group’s operating units. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering
specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, funding risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and use of derivative financial
instruments and non-derivative financial instruments.
3.1. CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT
In the normal course of business the Group incurs credit risk from trade debtors and transactions with financial
institutions. The Group has a credit policy that it uses to manage this risk. As part of this policy limits on exposures with
counter-parties have been set and approved by the Board of Directors and are monitored on a regular basis.
The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The Group does not require any collateral or security to
support financial instruments due to the quality of the financial institutions and trade debtors dealt with. The Group
normally gives 30 or 60 days credit on its trade receivables.
At 30th June the Group’s credit risk exposure is equal to the carrying value of its financial assets.

a. Impaired trade receivables
Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. The
other receivables are assessed collectively to determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment has been
incurred but not yet been identified. For these receivables the estimated impairment losses are recognised in a separate
provision for impairment. The Group considers that there is evidence of impairment if any of the following indicators are
present:
• significant financial difficulties of the debtor
• probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and
• default or delinquency in payments (more than 60 days overdue).
Receivables for which an impairment provision was recognised are written off against the provision when there is no
expectation of recovering additional cash.
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously
written off are credited against other expenses.

As at 30 June 2019 trade receivables of $2,305,000 (2018: $1,228,000) were past due (over 60 days) but not impaired.
These relate to a number of independent customers for whom there is no recent history of default. The aging analysis of
these trade receivables is as follows:

The other classes within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. Based on the
credit history of these other classes, it is expected that these amounts will be received when due. The Group does not
hold any collateral in relation to these receivables.
3.2. INTEREST RATE RISK
The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long term borrowing with variable rates which expose the Group to cash
flow interest rate risk.
Sensitivity analysis
The effect of a 1% increase or decrease in the floating interest rates for the Group would be a decrease/increase in profit
and equity of $847,000 (2018: $745,000.).
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 9TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
3.3. LIQUIDITY RISK
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate
amount of committed credit facilities. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Group maintains
flexibility in funding through having flexible funding lines available to them. Management monitors rolling forecasts of
the Group’s liquidity reserve, which comprises its undrawn borrowing facility and cash and cash equivalents (note 12.1) on
the basis of expected cash flows.
The Group had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:

3.4. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in
order to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
The Group’s capital structure is managed and adjustments are made, with Board approval, to the structure in the light of
economic conditions at the time. There were no changes to objectives, policies or processes during the year.
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition,
seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
a. Estimated impairment of goodwill
The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating
units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates. Refer to
note 13.2 for further details.
5. RECONCILIATION TO GAAP MEASURE - ADJUSTED EBITDA
Additional reporting measures have been referred to in the notes to the financial statements. The following non-GAAP
measures are relevant to the understanding of the Group’s financial performance:
• EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) represents profit before income taxes (a GAAP measure), excluding interest
income, interest expense, depreciation and amortisation, share of (loss)/profit of associates and impairment of
goodwill, as reported in the financial statements.
• Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) represents EBITDA adjusted for non trading costs.
In order to show a meaningful representation of the Group’s financial results the Group presents a reconciliation showing
the financial results after adjustment for non-trading costs. The inclusion of this non-GAAP measure, in the Directors’
opinion, will assist users to understand the performance of the Group and promote comparison with the wider industry.

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting to the Chief Operating Decision
Maker (CODM). The CODM, is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
Following a change in the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), assessed as the Group CEO, there has been a
change to the operating structure of the Group during the reporting period. The reportable operating segments have
been revised to align with the new structure. This is consistent with reporting at the Company’s interim balance date, 31
December 2018.
The Group has made the decision that the thirteen operating segments that form part of the reporting to the Group CEO
can be aggregated into six reporting segments. Reportable segments have been determined by having regards to the
nature of the services, the processes the various business units undertake to service customers, the type of customers
serviced and the nature of the distribution channels.
In addition to GAAP measures, the Group CEO also uses non-GAAP measures (EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA) to assess
the commercial performance of the segments. The revised reportable operating segments have been determined as:
INTERNATIONAL
This segment includes international freight forwarding and shipping agency services across a broad range of industries.
SPECIALIST
This segment provides transport and lifting solutions for oversized and large items. They also carry out specialist moving
jobs.
FREIGHTING
This segment provides nationwide general freight transport services with regional strength. It is able to transport a wide
range of freight types.
WAREHOUSING & LOGISTICS
This segment specialises in warehousing and supply chain capabilities which enable comprehensive supply chain
solutions to customers.
BULK LIQUIDS
This segment includes the service for delivery of various bulk liquid goods.
CORPORATE
This segment includes our corporate services function.
Comparative information has been re-presented from that presented in the 30 June 2018 annual report. This is to provide
comparative information aligned with the newly determined reporting segments.

function, which manages the cash position of the Group.
Sales between segments are eliminated on consolidation. The amounts provided to the CODM with respect to segment
revenue are measured in a manner consistent with that of the financial statements.
The Group has a diverse range of customers from various industries, with only one customer contributing more than 10%
of the Group’s revenue.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 13TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
7. REVENUE & OTHER SOURCES OF INCOME
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of services in the ordinary
course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of GST, returns, rebates and discounts and after eliminating sales
within the Group.
a. Sale of services
Freight Services
The Group performs transportation services. Revenue is recognised over the time of delivery, being from the time of
acceptance of the goods to delivery to the final destination.
A receivable is recognised when the customer’s products have been delivered by the Group. Payment is due in
accordance with contractual terms, usually 30 days from invoice date.
Logistics Services (Warehousing and Trading)
The logistics function provides warehousing and storage services. Revenue from providing these services is recognised
in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Some contracts include multiple deliverables. However,
these are easily identifiable and are accounted for as separate performance obligations.
For fixed priced contracts, revenue is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period
as a proportion of the total services to be provided. This is because the customer receives and uses the benefits of the
service simultaneously.
Customers are invoiced on a daily, weekly or monthly basis and consideration is payable when invoiced. There are no
significant financing arrangements for any of the Group’s revenue streams.

b. Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method.
c. Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
d. Rental income
Lease income from operating leases where the group is a lessor is recognised as rental income on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.
e. Financing Component
The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised service to the
customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the
transaction prices for the time value of money.
f. Contract Liability
The Group recognises a contract liability (deferred revenue) when the Group has received consideration for performance
obligations yet to be fulfilled. The opening balance has been recognised in revenue in the current year. There is no
material revenue recognised in the current year related to performance obligations met in previous periods. The average
timing of satisfaction of performance obligation in relation to the payment of the contract liability is between 1 and 5
days.

Other advisory services relate to the Group’s reverse acquisition and listing on the NZX. As part of the reverse listing
process the Group appointed PwC to provide tax and other advisory services. The services provided were performed by
a team separate to the audit. They related to providing comment on the listing documents. At all times the Group was
responsible for decision making.

Other advisory services relate to remuneration benchmarking and executive compensation. This amount excludes
advisory services related to financial due diligence for business acquisitions as these have been capitalised, being
$84,000 (2018: nil). The services provided were performed by a team separate to the audit. At all times the Group was
responsible for decision making.

The net increase in contingent consideration and advisor costs is the result of the final determination of the amount
payable relating to the MOVE Logistics business acquired in June 2017.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 15TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
8. OPERATING EXPENSES BY NATURE (CONTINUED)
8.1. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS EXPENSE
a. Superannuation benefits
The Group operates a defined contribution superannuation scheme. The scheme is funded through employee and Group
contributions to a trustee-administered fund. The Group has no further payment obligations once contributions have
been paid. Contributions are recognised as an employee benefits expense when they are due.
TIL Freighting Limited has a historic defined contribution company superannuation scheme that has been operating for a
number of years. The Company has contribution rates from 4% - 10%.
Members contribute a minimum of 4% of their salary/wage and can go as high as 15%. The Company contributions are
vested to the member at the rate of 20% per year of service with the Company i.e. 100% after five years of service.
b. Other employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and accumulating sick leave are expected to be
settled within 12 months. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
c. Long service leave
The liabilities for long service leave and annual leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the
end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured at the present value
of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting
period using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels,
experience of employee departures and periods of services. Expected future payments are discounted using market
yields at the end of the reporting period of high-quality corporate bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely
as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Re-measurement as a result of experience adjustments and changes in
actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss.
d. Profit-sharing and bonus plans
The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit-sharing based on a formula that takes into
consideration the profit attributable to the Company’s shareholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognises a
provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

The tax expense for the year comprised current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit or loss component of the
statement of profit or loss & other comprehensive income except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly
in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive
income or equity respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance
sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income.

12. FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
The Group classifies its financial assets at amortised cost. The classification depends on the purpose for which the
financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Financial assets are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting
date which are classified as non-current assets. The Group’s financial assets comprise ‘Trade and other receivables’
and ‘Cash and cash equivalents’ and ‘Advances to associates’ in the balance sheet. Financial assets that are stated at
amortised cost are reviewed individually at balance date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment.
Any impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income.
This note provides information about the Group’s financial instruments, including:
• An overview of all financial instruments held by the Group
• Specific information about each type of financial instrument
• Information about determining the fair value of the instruments, including judgements and estimations of
uncertainty involved.

The Group’s exposure to various risks associated with the financial instruments is discussed in note 3. The maximum
exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets
mentioned above, other than for trade and other receivables where the maximum credit risk is the balance before
impairment, being $50,396,000 (2018: $45,411,000).
12.1. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks, other short-term highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within
borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

12.2. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method less provision for expected credit loss.
The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with trade receivables carried at
amortised cost. The Group applies the simplified approach permitted by NZ IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime
losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. Impairment of trade receivables is recognised in profit
or loss.
Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation,
and default or delinquency in payments (more than 60 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable
has been impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present
value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 20TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
12.5. BORROWINGS
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group
has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred, unless they relate to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying
asset in which case the borrowing costs are capitalised.
On 31 October 2018, the Group entered into a new floating interest rate term loan facility for $15m to fund the purchase
of a business (refer note 17). The loan is with the same lender as the current facility and is for a term of three years. The
facilities are secured by way of a first ranking general security over the Group’s assets and undertaking including the
newly acquired business.
The facility includes a revolving committed cash facility of $75 million, an overdraft facility of $5 million, a term loan of
$15 million and a bank guarantee facility of $7.8 million (refer note 3.3).

purposes including level 3 fair values. This team reports directly to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the Risk
Assurance and Audit Committee (RAAC). Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the CFO,
RAAC and the valuation team at least once every six months, in line with the Group’s half yearly reporting periods.
The main level 3 inputs used by the Group is derived and evaluated as follows:

13. NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
This note provides information about the Group’s non-financial assets and liabilities, including specific information
about each type of non-financial asset and non-financial liability:
• Property, plant and equipment (note 13.1)
• Intangible assets (note 13.2)
• Deferred tax balances (note 13.3)
• Provisions and other liabilities (note 13.4)
Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example goodwill and software under development, are not subject to
amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to depreciation and amortisation are
reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount exceeds its
recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to dispose and value in
use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately
identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets, other than goodwill, that suffered an impairment
are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.
13.1. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
All property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that
is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of
the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and
maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on assets is calculated using the diminishing value (DV) or straight-line (SL) method, as follows:
Leasehold improvements9.5% to 48%DV
Trucks 14 yearsSL
Trailers18 yearsSL
Plant and equipment 7.5% to 42%DV
Motor vehicles 18% to 36%DV
Office equipment 12% to 60%DV
Furniture and fittings9.5% to 60%DV
The assets’ useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is
greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised
within ‘Gains on disposal of assets’ in the statement of profit or loss & other comprehensive income.

13.2 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
a. Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree, and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the
Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in ‘Intangible
assets’ in the balance sheet. Goodwill on acquisitions of associates is included in ‘Investments in associates’ in the
balance sheet and is tested for impairment as part of the overall balance. Separately recognised goodwill is tested
annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are not
reversed. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those
cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination on
which the goodwill arose.
b. Computer software
Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the
specific software. These costs are amortised, using the diminishing value method at a rate of 48% and recognised in the
profit or loss. Costs associated with maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense when
incurred.
c. Customer contracts and lists
Acquired customer contracts and lists are recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition and are subsequently
amortised on a straight-line basis over six years. Amortisation expense is recognised in the profit or loss.

MOVE Logistics Ltd12,49212,492
TNL International Ltd170170
McAuley’s Transport Ltd555555
Total15,02015,020
The recoverable amount of all CGUs has been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations are
pre-tax cash flow projections based on Board approved financial budgets and a further four year forecast period using
conservative growth levels of less than 2% per annum.
An assumed terminal real growth rate of 2% (2018: 0%) has been used in the valuations. The Group has applied
discounted pre-tax cash flows using rates in the range of 11.4% - 18.2% to reflect the risks associated with each subsidiary
(2018: 11.5%).
The Group completed sensitivity testing on the CGU’s impairment models as follows: growth rate +/- 1.0%, terminal
growth rate +/- 1.0%, and discount rates +/- 1.0%. Sensitivity testing demonstrated no issues with impairment headroom
in all cases.
13.3. DEFERRED INCOME TAX
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income
tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business
combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income
tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date
and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is
settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the
same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle
the balances on a net basis.
Temporary differences arise from the following:

result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount
can be reliably estimated.
Provisions are measured at the present value of Management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligations at the end of the reporting period.

14. SHARE CAPITAL
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in
equity as a deduction, net of tax from the proceeds.
The assessed value of the share based payments and the shares issued in the public offer during the year ended 30 June
2018 was $1.50 per share. The value was independently determined as fair and reasonable by Grant Samuel & Associates
using the capitalisation of earnings approach. This was deemed the most appropriate method as the Group has relatively
stable cash flows and a predictable capital expenditure profile.

17. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
The Group acquired on 31 October 2018 the assets of three businesses for a total cash consideration of $15m and share
allocation of $4m. The acquisition was made by a 100% owned subsidiary of the Group, Specialist Lifting and Transport
Limited (previously named TNL Freighting Limited). The acquisition allowed the Group to become the leader in the heavy
haulage industry.
The table below summarises the consideration paid by the Group and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed:

There were no contingent assets or liabilities acquired as part of the transaction.
The acquired business contributed revenues of $11,753,133 and a profit before tax of $1,421,454 to the Group for
the period 1 November 2018 to 30 June 2019. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2018, the revenue and profit
contributed by the acquired businesses for the 12 months ended 30 June 2019 would have been $17,626,699 and
$2,132,181 respectively.
The Group also acquired a 33% equity interest in the business activity and assets of Emerald Truck Services Limited for
$174,000. This acquisition was a joint venture with McAuley’s Transport and two other parties.
18. CONTINGENCIES
The Group has bank guarantees of $7,837,000 as at 30 June 2019 (2018: $5,730,000).

b. Operating lease commitments
Operating leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are
classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are
charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
The Group leases various property, plant and equipment under non-cancellable operating lease agreements. The
property lease terms are between 1 and 15 years, and the majority of lease agreements are renewable at the end of the
lease period at market rate.

20. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Except as described below, the accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual financial statements
for the period ended 30 June 2018.
There were two new standards applied during the period. This note explains the impact of the adoption of NZ IFRS 9
Financial Instruments and NZ IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers on the Group’s financial statements and
discloses the new accounting policies that have been applied from 1 July 2018. It also describes the expected impact of
the new standards that are not yet effective.
IMPACT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Group has elected to adopt the new accounting standards with cumulative transition adjustments being recognised
in the opening equity balance at transaction date. As a result comparative information has not been impacted and has
not been restated, in line with the permitted transitional provisions.
The following tables show the adjustments recognised for adoption of the new standards.

NZ IFRS 9: Increase provision for trade receivables(499)
NZ IFRS 15: Deferral of revenue on unfulfilled performance obligations(571)
Opening accumulated losses at 1 July 2018(2,365)
NZ IFRS 9 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - IMPACT OF ADOPTION
This standard replaces NZ IAS 39 and addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and
liabilities, introduces new rules for hedge accounting (not currently relevant to the Group) and a new impairment model
for financial assets.
The Group has adopted the new standard on 1 July 2018 and notes the following impacts of the new standard.
Adoption of NZ IFRS 9 has resulted in the reclassification of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and advances
to associates from loans and receivables under NZ IAS 39 to being classified as measured at amortised cost under NZ
IFRS 9. Management has assessed there is no change to the measurement basis of the financial assets as a result of the
reclassification.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 33TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
20. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED)
NZ IFRS 9 replaces the ‘incurred loss’ model in NZ IAS 39 with an ‘expected credit loss’ (ECL) model. The expected
credit loss model requires an entity to account for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses at
each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition. In other words, it is no longer necessary for
a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognised. The new impairment model applies to the Group in
relation to financial assets classified at amortised cost, being the Group’s trade receivables and advances to associates.
For the current period, the Group has applied the standard’s simplified approach and has calculated ECLs for trade
receivables and advances to associates that are exposed to credit losses based on a lifetime of expected credit losses.
The Group has established a provisions matrix that is based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience adjusted
for forward looking factors specific to these balances and the economic environment. To measure the expected credit
losses, trade receivables and advances to associates that are exposed to credit losses have been grouped based on
shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due.
Based on the Group’s assessment it has assessed there to be an impairment on its trade receivables of $499,000 which
has been adjusted through retained earnings. The loss allowances for trade receivables as at 30 June 2018 reconcile to
the opening loss allowances on 1 July 2018 as follows:
Trade
Receivables
$000
At 30 June 2018 - calculated under NZ IAS 39351
Amounts restated through opening retained earnings499
Opening loss allowance as at 1 July 2018 - calculated under NZ IFRS 9850
There is no impact on the Group’s accounting for financial liabilities in the current period.
ECL in respect to advances to associates has been assessed as immaterial.
NZ IFRS 15 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS – IMPACT OF ADOPTION
The Group has adopted NZ IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from 1 July 2018 which resulted in changes
in accounting policies and adjustments to the amounts recognised in the financial statements. In accordance with the
transition provisions in NZ IFRS 15, the Group has adopted the new rules using the modified retrospective option and has
not restated comparatives for the 2018 financial year. In summary, the following adjustments were made to the amounts
recognised in the accumulated losses at the date of initial application (1 July 2018):
NZ IAS 18 carrying

Change in timing of revenue recognition
Revenue from the freighting services provided by the Group was previously recognised when the goods were collected.
The new standard requires that revenue is only recognised over time as the delivery is being performed. This has resulted
in an adjustment for revenue relating to the freighting jobs that were not delivered as at 30 June 2018.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 34TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED
20. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED)
NZ IFRS 16 LEASES (EFFECTIVE FOR REPORTING PERIOD COMMENCING 1 JULY 2019)
This standard replaces the current guidance in NZ IAS 17. Under NZ IFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if the
contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Under NZ IAS 17, a lessee was required to make a distinction between a finance lease (on balance sheet) and an operating
lease (off balance sheet). NZ IFRS 16 now requires a lessee to recognise a lease liability reflecting future lease payments
and a ‘right-of-use’ (ROU) asset for virtually all lease contracts. Included is an optional exemption for lessees in respect
of certain short-term leases and leases of low value assets.
From the effective date of adoption, the income statement will also be impacted by the removal of operating lease
expenses, the recognition of an interest expense applicable to the future lease payment obligations and the recognition
of a depreciation expense in respect of the ROU asset.
This standard will change the accounting for the Group’s operating leases. As at the reporting date, the Group had non-
cancellable operating lease commitments of $282 million (refer Note 19). Upon adoption, NZ IFRS 16 will have a material
impact on a number of elements of the Group’s balance sheet and income statement, but no material impact on the
Group’s statement of cash flows.
Through the use of a technology solution designed for the management of leases, the Group has developed a model to
calculate the impact of their current operating leases under NZ IFRS 16 as at 1 July 2019, being the date of adoption. The
model requires management to make some key judgements including:
• incremental borrowing rate (IBR) used to discount the ROU assets and the future lease payment obligations;
• lease terms, including any rights of renewal expected to be exercised;
• application of practical expedients and recognition exemptions allowed by the new standard, including in respect
low value assets and short-term leases exemptions, of which none were applied for the purposes of the initial
assessment.
The new standard allows a choice of transition methods. Management has determined that the most appropriate
approach for the Group at this point in time, will be to use the simplified modified retrospective transition method. The
Group has calculated the initial ROU asset as the equal amount of the initial lease liability recognised (which is calculated
as the present value of the remaining lease payments from the date of adoption). Using this transition method will mean
a neutral net asset outcome upon adoption of the new standard. The Group, at this stage, does not intend to restate
comparative amounts for the financial year prior to the first year of adoption.
The estimated potential impact on the balance sheet is estimated to be between $232 to $252 million increase in both
assets and liabilities equally, following the recognition of the ROU asset and the discounted future lease obligations,
respectively.
The financial impact on the income statement for the year of adoption is estimated to be an approximate reduction in net
profit before tax of $5.3 to $5.8 million. The following approximate changes to the current treatment of operating leases
in the financial statements have been estimated for the year the new standard is adopted:
• a $29.2 to $29.7 million decrease in operating lease rental expenses (removed);
• a $25.5 to $26.0 million increase in depreciation (relating to ROU assets); and
• a $9.0 to $9.5 million increase in interest expense (relating to lease liability finance costs).
There will be no changes applicable to the Group’s cash flows as a result of adopting the new standard, as operating
lease payments will continue to be paid as usual. The adjustments above are only for financial reporting purposes.
The estimated potential financial adjustments above are expected to change at the time of adopting the new standard on
1 July 2019 for the following reasons:
• finalisation of managements judgements and subsequent movements in the incremental borrowing rate (interest
rates);
• new lease contracts entered into by the Group;
• any changes to existing lease contracts; and
• change in managements judgement to exercise rights of renewals under lease agreement.

EXPLANATIONS OF VARIANCES
a. The current year includes sales relating to the acquisition of the Specialist Lifting and Transport Group (refer note 17)
which was not in the Prospective Financial Information (PFI). Warehousing and storage revenue was also higher than PFI
levels due to the opening of several new facilities.
b. There were no gains on disposals of assets anticipated in the PFI. The Group entered into several sale and leaseback
transactions during the year relating to fleet. The PFI also did not include any subleasing of properties relating to NZL
Group and MOVE Logistics.
c. Operating costs were higher than anticipated due to the impact of the Specialist Lifting and Transport Group
acquisition (refer note 17). The Group also had higher vehicle lease costs above PFI level due to more fleet being leased
rather than purchased. Direct wages and occupancy costs were also higher than anticipated levels due to the new
warehousing facilities not known at the time of the PFI. The Group has also developed its senior leadership team since
listing and several of these roles were not included in the PFI.
d. There was no provision for additional contingent consideration for the acquisition of MOVE Logistics and Southern
Fleet Leasing included in the PFI. The acquired businesses have traded above expected levels which resulted in an
additional amount payable.
e. Depreciation and interest expenses are higher due to the acquisition of the Specialist Lifting and Transport Group
(refer note 17).
f. Trade receivables, trade payables and property plant and equipment are higher than forecast levels due to the
acquisition noted above. Trade receivables has also been impacted by several large customers who have contracted
extended payment terms not planned in the PFI. There were also several material customers who did not pay their
accounts due at the end of June 2019 which, still remain collectible.
g. Borrowings are higher than levels in PFI due to additional funding required to purchase Specialist Lifting and Transport
Group (refer note 17). Due to the lower levels of profit achieved when compared to the PFI the cash available to reduce
debt was impacted in this financial year.
h. Employee entitlements are above PFI levels due to the acquisition of the Specialist Lifting and Transport Group (refer
note 17) and also the timing of payroll accruals/payments not accounted for in the PFI.
i. Higher levels of capital expenditure relating to the fit out of the new warehouses were not accounted for in the PFI.
j. The Company has been operating a Dividend Reinvestment Plan which has a high participation level which was not
included in the PFI.

24. FURTHER INFORMATION ON BASIS OF PREPARATION FOR COMPARATIVE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Carve-out and reverse listing
To facilitate a listing of the transport and logistics business of Transport Investments Limited (subsequently renamed
Bowker Holdings 99 Limited), “the Business”, together with the shares in a related entity, Global Logistics Limited, were
acquired by TIL Logistics Group Limited (formerly Bethunes Investments Limited), a listed non-trading company. The
acquisition was satisfied by TIL Logistics Group Limited issuing shares and paying cash to the former owners of the
Business.
As a result of the transaction, the former owners of the Business obtained control of TIL Logistics Group Limited. Due
to this, Management considered it appropriate to account for the transaction as a ‘reverse acquisition’. The ‘carved out’
Business of Transport Investments Limited (including Global Logistics Limited) was identified as the accounting acquirer,
and TIL Logistics Group Limited, the listed non-trading entity, was identified as the accounting acquiree.
Consequently, the consolidated financial statements, although under the name of TIL Logistics Group Limited, the legal
parent, represent a continuation of the carved out business operations of Transport Investments Limited. The carved out
Business of Transport Investments Limited, being the accounting acquirer, is deemed to have issued shares to obtain
control of the acquiree, TIL Logistics Group Limited. However, because TIL Logistics Group Limited, the accounting
acquiree, is not a business, the transaction is not a business combination within the scope of NZ IFRS 3. The difference
between the fair value of the shares deemed to have been issued to obtain control of TIL Logistics Group Limited, and
the fair value of TIL Logistics Group Limited’s identifiable net assets has been recognised as an equity-settled share
based payment for services received in the form of a stock exchange listing.
The comparative financial statements reflect the results of the carved out business operations of Transport Investments
Limited for the period from 1 July 2017 to 6 December 2017 and the results of the TIL Logistics Group Limited group
(which includes the transport and logistics business of Transport Investments Limited acquired) from 7 December 2017
to 30 June 2018. The equity of the ‘carved out’ Business prior to the listing transaction has been presented as ‘Invested
capital’ as the Business was not legally part of the TIL Logistics Group prior to this date. Upon listing, invested capital
has been reallocated to share capital and other reserves, being retained earnings only. The amount recognised as
share capital uses the share capital of the previous Transport Investments Limited group as a proxy, with the balance
recognised within retained earnings.
The carved out financial information has been prepared on a basis that reflects the business and assets of Transport
Investments Limited legally acquired by TIL Logistics Group Limited on 6 December 2017. Specifically, it excludes the
results and financial position of a subsidiary of Transport Investments Limited not acquired as part of the transaction. It
also excludes debt of Transport Investments Limited that was not part of the liabilities acquired, together with interest
thereon, such that the carved out results and financial position of Transport Investments Limited reflect a debt-free
business. This is not reflective of the position following the transaction, which involved TIL Logistics Group Limited
entering into a new banking facility to fund the payment of cash consideration to the former owners of the Business
acquired, together with transaction costs and the working capital requirements of the Group.

An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance whether the
consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
Overall Group materiality: $694,000, which represents approximately 2.5%
of earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, adjusted for
expenses recognised in respect of contingent consideration on business
combinations.
We chose earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation,
adjusted for the previously mentioned transaction because, in our view, it is
the most appropriate benchmark to assess the performance of the Group for
the period.
We have determined that there is one key audit matter:
Carrying value of Move Logistics Goodwill.
Materiality
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality,
including the overall Group materiality for the consolidated financial statements as a whole as set out
above. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit,
the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both
individually and in aggregate on the consolidated financial statements as a whole.
Audit scope
We designed our audit by assessing the risks of material misstatement in the consolidated financial
statements and our application of materiality. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of
management override of internal controls including among other matters, consideration of whether
there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an
opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the
Group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group operates.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in
our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in
the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matterHow our audit addressed the key audit matter
Carrying value of Move Logistics
Goodwill
The Group has recognised $15 million of
goodwill on its balance sheet. Of this
balance, $12.5 million relates to goodwill
arising on the Group’s acquisition of Move
Logistics Limited (Move Logistics).
Due to the significance of the balance and
the judgement required in determining
the value-in-use (VIU) of Move Logistics
we have determined this area to be a key
audit matter.
Annually, the Group is required to assess
whether goodwill is impaired by
comparing the carrying value against the
recoverable amount. To meet this
requirement the Group has prepared a
discounted cash flow valuation on a VIU
basis for Move Logistics.
Management’s VIU calculation uses Board
approved budgets for FY20, an estimate of
growth across the remaining four year
forecast period, and a terminal growth
rate of 2%. Management then discount
these forecast cash flows to present day.
Management exercise significant
judgement in undertaking these VIU
calculations, specifically with respect to
determining the forecast cash flows,
including forecast capital requirements,
terminal growth rate, and discount rate.
Management concluded that the carrying
value of the Move Logistics goodwill was
not impaired.
Disclosure of the Group’s impairment
assessment of Move Logistics is contained
in note 13.2.
Calculating value-in-use (VIU)
To assess the accuracy of the VIU calculation used by
management we:
tested the mathematical accuracy of the valuation
model, and
used our valuation specialist to review the
structure of the model and the methodology used
within the calculation.
Assessing the reasonableness of significant
assumptions used in the VIU model
We performed the following procedures to assess the
reasonableness of the forecast cash flows assumptions
used by management to calculate VIU:
challenged management on key assumptions
including sales growth and terminal growth rate,
agreed cash flows to the Board approved budget,
considered the reasonableness of the Group’s
discount rate by comparison to a discount rate
developed by our internal valuation expert,
assessed the Group’s forecasting accuracy by
comparing historical cash flow forecasts to actual
results,
performed a sensitivity analysis over key
assumptions to assess the impact of reasonably
possible changes, and
reviewed the consolidated financial statements to
ensure appropriate identification and disclosure of
key assumptions.
Because of the subjectivity involved in determining
VIU, there is a range of values, which can be
considered reasonable when evaluating the carrying
value of the goodwill. Based on the above procedures
there were no matters to report.

Information other than the consolidated financial statements and auditor’s report
The Directors are responsible for the annual report. Our opinion on the consolidated financial
statements does not cover the other information included in the annual report and we do not and will
not express any form of assurance conclusion on the other information.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent
with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other information
that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report
in this regard, except that not all other information was available to us at the date of our signing.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated financial statements
The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Company, for the preparation and fair presentation of
the consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ IFRS and IFRS, and for such internal
control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Directors are responsible for assessing the
Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate
the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial
statements, as a whole, are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to
issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance,
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (NZ) and ISAs will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence
the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements is
located at the External Reporting Board’s website at:

DIVERSITY
Diversity at TIL Logistics refers to characteristics of individuals and includes factors such as gender, marital status,
religious belief, colour, race, ethnic or national origin, disability, age, political opinion, employment status, family status
or sexual orientation. It encompasses the ways our people differ in terms of their education, life experience, job function,
work experience, personality, location and career responsibilities. The key aspects that we are seeking are diversity
of thinking and skills, as these attributes are most likely to assist TIL Logistics in delivering better outcomes for our
stakeholders.
Diversity at TIL Logistics is about the commitment to equal employment opportunities and treating all individuals fairly
and with respect. TIL Logistics has a diverse workforce and we recognise that everyone has individual differences which
can be leveraged to create stronger teams and which will ultimately drive stronger business performance.
Our approach to diversity is outlined in the Diversity Policy, which is available on the Company website.
Key areas of focus are:
• Recruitment and retention of a diverse workforce
• Supportive working environment
• People development
• Recognition and reward based on merit

BOARD COMMITTEES
The Board has delegated a number of its responsibilities to Committees to assist in the execution of the Board’s
responsibilities. The use of Committees allows issues requiring detailed consideration to be dealt with separately by
members of the Board with specialist knowledge and experience, thereby enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of
the Board. However, the Board retains ultimate responsibility for the functions of its Committees and determines their
responsibilities.
The Committees meet as required and have terms of reference (Charters), which are approved and reviewed by the
Board.
56
TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITEDCORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Minutes of each Committee meeting are forwarded to all members of the Board, who are all entitled to attend any
Committee meeting. Each Committee is empowered to seek any information it requires from employees in pursuing its
duties and to obtain independent legal or other professional advice.
The membership and performance of each Committee is reviewed annually.
Management attendance at Committee meetings is by invite only.
Special purpose Committees may be formed to review and monitor specific projects with senior management. In the
case of a takeover offer, TIL Logistics would engage expert legal and financial advisors to provide advice on procedure.
Formal Takeover protocols are being developed and will be available in FY20. As a result, TIL Logistics is not in full
compliance with Recommendation 3.6 of the NZX Corporate Governance Code.

REPORTING AND DISCLOSURE
TIL Logistics is committed to keeping investors and the market informed of all material information about the Company
and its performance, in a timely manner. In addition to all information required by law, we also seek to provide sufficient
meaningful information to ensure stakeholders and investors are well informed.
The Company’s Continuous Disclosure Policy sets out the principles and requirements of this commitment to timely and
balanced disclosures.
Key corporate governance policies are available on TIL Logistics’ website at
https://www.til.kiwi/investor-area/governance/
Financial Reporting
For the financial year ended 30 June 2019, the Directors believe that proper accounting records have been kept which
enable, with reasonable accuracy, the determination of the financial position of the Company and facilitate compliance
of the financial statements with the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer have confirmed in writing that TIL Logistics Group’s external financial reports present a true and fair view in all
material aspects.
57
TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITEDCORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Non-financial reporting
TIL Logistics has a number of initiatives supporting its focus on the environment, people and communities. A process
to measure carbon emissions and develop a formal ESG framework is currently underway and the Company will report
against this at the end of the next financial year. As a result, TIL Logistics is not in full compliance with Recommendation
4.3 of the NZX Corporate Governance Code. TIL Logistics discusses its strategic objectives and its progress against these
in the Chair and CEO’s commentary in shareholder reports.
REMUNERATION
Remuneration of Directors and senior executives is the key responsibility of the Governance and Remuneration
Committee. External advice has been sought to ensure remuneration is benchmarked to the market for senior
management positions and Board positions.
Details of Director and Executive Remuneration in FY19 are provided on pages 50 to 51.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Board has overall responsibility for the Company’s system of risk management and internal control and has
procedures in place to provide effective control within the management and reporting structure.
In addition, the Risk Assurance and Audit Committee (RAAC) provides an additional and more specialised oversight of
Company risks. The RAAC Charter details the specific responsibilities of the Committee regarding Risk Assurance.
Financial statements are prepared monthly and are reviewed by the Board progressively throughout the year to monitor
management’s performance against budget goals and objectives, and the Board requires managers to identify and
respond to risk exposures.
A structured framework is in place for capital expenditure, including appropriate authorisation and approval levels which
place a high emphasis on the commercial logic for the investment. The Board has set limits to management’s ability to
incur expenditure, enter contracts and acquire or dispose of assets.
Risk profiles which identify, assess, monitor and report the Company’s key business risks are formally reviewed by the
Board annually. These risk profiles also identify the key risk mitigation strategies which are in place. A summary is below:
Key RiskMitigation
CompetitionTIL is focused on continually improving its offer to customers and enhancing
the customer experience. Investment is being made into IT and capacity
to further strengthen TIL’s end to end supply chain offer and enhance the
customer experience.
Financial risksManaging financial risk is an ongoing process in all businesses.
A key focus for business managers is cash flow management. Financial
policies and procedures are in place and monitored to ensure the business is
managed within the limits on a continuous basis. This risk is managed by the
Board Risk & Assurance and Audit Committee.
Crisis EventsNatural disasters and other crisis events in New Zealand can have an impact
on how we operate our business. The Group is implementing a proactive
risk management approach for each Division in the areas of supply chain,
employees and business infrastructure in case of a natural disaster. Business
Continuity Plans are in place for each business and pre- and post-disaster
planning reviews are conducted.
EconomyWe carefully monitor economic trends and each business is tasked with
identifying potential risks and developing strategic plans which take these
into account.
Cyber SecurityThe company has data security systems and protocols in place, which are
continuously reviewed and updated for improvement.
Cyber Security Audits are undertaken on a regular basis.
Health & SafetyWe have a programme and policies focused on identifying and mitigating
health and safety risks within the business. We monitor and measure key
metrics and report on these regularly to the Board. Preventative and recovery
processes and controls are implemented across the business.
58
TIL LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITEDCORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Crisis plans have been developed along with agreed protocols on actions to be taken and external and internal
communication protocols.
Occupational Health and Safety statistics and reported data from each business are reviewed at each Board meeting.
This includes serious and minor incidents along with near misses and corrective actions and internal training schemes.
The Board as a whole is responsible for monitoring corporate risk assessment processes and this is not delegated to a
subcommittee.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
Staying safe, keeping others safe, and being corporately responsible are fundamental to what we are as an organisation.
Operating our business in this way helps us deliver on our vision of “No Harm to People, the Environment or Assets”.
Paying close attention to safety, wellbeing, sustainability, ethics and integrity go hand in hand with that vision.
The Board is committed to taking all reasonably practicable steps to ensure a high quality, safe and healthy environment
for all TIL Logistics people, our visitors, partners and those we interact with on the road. This means, we make the safety
and wellbeing of our employees, contractors and communities our priority.
People safety is a key priority, one of our core values and an essential component to everything we do. Our ambition is
zero fatalities. We are committed to developing, improving and reinforcing our safety culture. The key to this is improving
leadership capacity and simplifying our tools and systems.
We track safety performance to identify patterns to help prevent incidents – for example, by determining fatigue trends
we can schedule activities to avoid particular times of the day when we know incidents are more likely to occur. “Health,
Safety and Sustainability” results and reported data from each Business Unit and at a Group level, are reviewed Monthly
at each National Health & Safety Committee Meeting and at each Board meeting. This includes training, serious accident,
incident and minor event data as well as near misses, observations and corrective actions.
Over the next year we will be taking steps to operationalise our safety and sustainability teams with a revised focus and
functional framework, using improved measurement and analytics tools, “in cab” technologies and other technology
that move us beyond traditional safety metrics – bringing factors like weather and vehicle data into the picture – to
identify leading indicators of injuries and illness and factoring our learnings into revised safety practices in all parts of our
business.
AUDITORS
External audit
For the year ended 30 June 2019, PricewaterhouseCoopers was the external auditor of TIL Logistics Group Limited.
The Risk Assurance and Audit Committee monitors the ongoing independence, quality and performance of the external
auditors and audit partner rotation. The Committee pre-approves any non-audit work undertaken by PwC. The non-audit
services in the year ended 30 June 2019 are set out in the Annual Report. Those services were provided in accordance
with the company’s External Auditor Independence Policy and were assessed by the Risk Assurance and Audit
Committee as not affecting PwC’s independence. The fees paid for audit and non-audit services in FY19 is identified on
page 53 of the Annual Report. The external auditors will attend the 2019 Annual Shareholders Meeting.
Internal Audit
TIL Logistics has a number of internal controls, including controls for computerised information system, security, business
continuity management, insurance, health and safety, conflicts of interest, and prevention and identification of fraud. A
formal Internal Audit function and framework is being developed and will be fully implemented in FY20 with it having
conducted internal audits in FY19 using external resources.

OPERATING EXPENSES
•Increased cost environment is being managed
closely: Fluctuating fuel prices; higher road user
charges and regional fuel taxes, increased wage costs
and higher costs for parts and equipment due to the
lower exchange rate. Some of the higher fuel costs
have been offset through a supply contract with Z
Energy as part of the renewed strategic partnership.
Unexpected demurrage costs were incurred in 2H19.
•Increased costs associated with business initiatives:
Increased property rent costs (particularly due to
expanded warehousing capacity), wages and fleet
lease costs; establishment of Senior Leadership
Team; restructure of NZL; and higher repairs and
maintenance due to new fleet decisions being
delayed while new contracts were finalised.
•First full year of being a listed issuer: Full period of
corporate and governance costs of $1.6m (compared

GLOSSARY
•Non-GAAP financial information: TIL Logistics Group uses several non-GAAP measures when discussing
financial performance. These include Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation, Share of
(Loss)/Profit of Associates and Impairment of Goodwill (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA excluding non-trading
costs and adjusted Net Profit/Loss After Tax (NPAT/NLAT) excluding non-trading costs. Management believes
that these measures provide useful information on the underlying performance of TIL Logistics’
business.Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures, can be found in TIL Logistics
Group’s Financial Statements that are available on the company’s website.
•EBITDArefers to Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation excluding income from
associates. EBITDA is a non-GAAP profit measure.
•NPAT/NLAT refers to net profit/loss after tax.
•Adjusted EBITDA/Adjusted NPAT: Excludes non-trading costs associated with the reverse listing process
which occurred in FY18, share based payments and the revaluation of deferred consideration for
acquisitions. The Board believes this provides a better reflection of the company’s underlying performance.
