Adelaide Expansion − Our Vision/Thesis
15

interstate and IB)

New hotel, F&B, car park and broader precinct to be significant demand drivers and complement core activities

Riverbank precinct to be the centre of entertainment for Adelaide

Transform Adelaide Casino into a world-class casino and entertainment complex

Significant opportunity to grow market share and turnaround an underperforming casino

Project represents a significant investment in the future of Adelaide – long-term exclusive licence to 2035

(full licence term to 2085)

Regulatory environment supports investment case (note acceptors offer potential upside)

Project expected to deliver significant incremental earnings and required return

Property likely to take 3-4 years to reach full earnings potential post opening

Historicaldisadvantagesbeingaddressedthroughinvestment,precinctenhancementsandregulatorychanges

Historical disadvantagesChanges – present and future

Undesirable/underinvested precinct

Restrictive regulatory environment inherited following

acquisition (2000)

Casino facilities lacking scale/quality/appeal

Limited non-gaming facilities to support core activities,

particularly no dedicated car parking

Progressive changes to existing building not well received

by some local customers

World-class entertainment/tourism precinct

Changes to regulatory environment levels the playing field

and supports growth post expansion

Casino expansion to be world-class facility and

comparable to peers

Hotel, F&B, car park to be significant demand drivers

Master planning for existing building to ensure local

appeal

FY20/FY21 Strategic Priorities
49

Complete Adelaide expansion and leverage benefits

Consolidate opportunity to address online casino

market in NZ

Focus on VIP/premium gaming and CXM initiatives

Confirm plan for recommissioning of NZICC & Horizon

Hotel project following fire

Progress master planning initiatives in

Auckland/Hamilton/Queenstown

Continue to invest in/enhance key CSR/sustainability

initiatives

Group strategic plan still relevant − critical to stay focused on completing major projects and enhancing shareholder returns

Strategic/Industry Themes – Two Years On (1 of 2)
50

Challenges remain for companies to sustain above cost of capital returns – requirement to increasingly diversify/invest to

sustain/grow earnings and remain relevant

Online gaming growing significantly (and faster than land-based) – several jurisdictions have legalised/regulated online

casinos/sports betting or plan to do so

Positive secular growth trends in China/Asia, with a growing middle class

Traditional land-based gaming maturing with exception of VIP/premium

Increased levels of industry consolidation (both land-based and online) as companies pursue diversification and synergies

Increased regulatory creep and focus/scrutiny on social licence

Strategic/Industry Themes – Two Years On (2 of 2)
51

Shareholders increasing their focus on SkyCity’s strategic priorities after completion of major projects, particularly against

backdrop of a dynamic, changing industry landscape

US/China trade war and global recession fears impacting sentiment around global gaming stocks (particularly those with levered

balance sheets)

Gaming REITs expanding their presence in US with institutional investors pushing for further real estate monetisation

Las Vegas/Macau continue to shift towards more non-gaming and attractions to stay relevant

Potential for significant expansion in attractive land-based gaming markets (e.g. Japan)

Consolidation between product suppliers/manufacturers less prevalent, industry searching for growth/competitive advantage

Long-Term Value Proposition
52

Increase casino, entertainment and

hospitality revenue

Develop new, complementary business

Allocate capital to higher

returning assets and businesses

Achieve operating leverage and

efficiencies across the Group

Maintain efficient capital structure and

distribution policy

Introduce investment partners to drive

growth and enhance returns

Protect and enhance

Total NJ casino market (land-based and online) grown post establishing online market – land-based growth +5% per year

Effective channeling of online customer to existing sites given multiple options

Majority of operators have partnered with European platform providers (i.e. GiG/Hard Rock, Gamesys/Tropicana)

Operators effective in geo-blocking non-NJ residents from participating

Significantly increased gaming tax revenue for State and no discernible new incidence of problem gaming

NZ Online Casino Market – “Outside In” Perspective
91

Significant unregulated online gaming market developed over last 10 years -+$250m in annual gross gaming revenue

(1)

Current legislation allows for offshore operators to address NZ online gaming market

Majority of offshore operators not adhering to principles of Gambling Act 2003 (the “Act”) –emphasison protecting

harm/community benefits

Advertising restrictions often being circumvented (or ignored) by offshore operators with limited (if any) consequences

Mature market with a number of sites in operation

Land-based casinos being disrupted and no level playing field available under the Act

Capital Allocation Framework
101

“ The primary task of the SkyCity Board is the efficient allocation of capital.”

Rob Campbell, SkyCity Chair’s Review, Annual Report 2019

Key Objectives:Consistent with strategic goals − efficient capital allocation, maximise

sustainable shareholder returns

Sources of Capital

Operating cash flows

Cash balances

Debt issues

Asset sales

Equity issues

Uses of Capital

Stay-in-business capex

Growth investments

M&A opportunities

Debt repayments

Dividends

Capital returns

Financial Settings:

BBB- credit rating

Dividend policy (80% payout, min 20cps per year)

Target IRR/ROIC benchmarks

Historical Capital Allocation
102

Highly cash generative business with good access to capital –significant investment in growth projects over last 5 years but

difficult to achieve adequate ROIC. Meaningful capital returned to shareholders via ordinary dividends and buy-back

Current and Future Projects

Capital Allocation Priorities
Committed to maintaining BBB- credit rating

Total debt expected to peak at ~$800m in FY21/22 (but final profile/timing depends on revised NZICC &

Horizon Hotel construction programme)

Committed to current dividend policy (80% payout ratio subject to minimum 20cps per annum)

Internal project return benchmarks: 12% post-tax IRR and 9% ROIC (by year 3) (WACC = 9%)

Pursuing opportunities to go “capital lighter” where possible

Comfortable returning surplus capital to shareholders if not required for other purposes

Current share buy-back ongoing subject to price being value-adding for shareholders

Ongoing stay-in -business capex of ~$80m – required to maintain and refurbish existing properties

Complete major projects in Adelaide and Auckland (NZICC & Horizon Hotel capex delayed)

Complete other smaller growth projects (i.e. The Guardsman in Adelaide, Auckland VIP/premium

gaming etc)

No new major growth projects confirmed at this stage – still being evaluated

Significant balance sheet capacity for future growth projects and/or shareholder distributions
