Kathmandu Holdings has announced that it intends to raise approximately $207 million to strengthen its balance
sheet and ensure the Group is strongly capitalised through the current market uncertainties caused by COVID-
19.
Kathmandu Holdings’ Group CEO Xavier Simonet said “The Group’s first half financial results highlight the
strength of our three global brands, Kathmandu, Rip Curl and Oboz. These results also show the strong position
we would have been in to drive the next wave of our growth in line with our long-term diversification strategy
had the global COVID-19 pandemic not occurred. In this situation of uncertainty and challenges, the health and
wellbeing of our team and customers is paramount, while we maintain business continuity and ensure we are
well positioned to bounce back quickly when more normal operating conditions return.”
“The Board is taking pre-emptive action with the capital raising announced today, to ensure our Group remains
strongly capitalised during the current market uncertainties. The proceeds of the Equity Raising will be used to

deleverage the Group’s balance sheet and provide liquidity and funding in the medium-term should we
experience a prolonged global COVID-19 pandemic,” added Mr Simonet.
Strengthening the Group’s Balance Sheet and Liquidity Position
Kathmandu Holdings’ management and Board are taking decisive action to address the impacts of COVID-19
and maintain business continuity, while ensuring the health and safety of the Group’s team and customers
remains the highest priority.
A large number of initiatives have already been undertaken covering distribution, supply chain, leases, various
operating and capital expenditure, and people. Specific detail is outlined in the presentation lodged with NZX
and ASX today.
In addition to these initiatives, the Group is taking pre-emptive action to ensure it remains strongly capitalised
with sufficient liquidity during the current period of uncertainty. This includes:
• executing a fully underwritten $207 million Equity Raising;
• as previously announced, suspending the Group’s dividend until trading conditions improve. This includes
the Group’s interim 1H FY20 dividend; and
• Working with existing banking group, which has provided a covenant waiver for the periods ending 31 July
2020 and 31 January 2021, and a relaxation of certain covenants for the period ending 31 July 2021, subject
to successful completion of a minimum NZ$150 million equity raising.
The proceeds of the Equity Raising will be used to deleverage the Group’s balance sheet and provide liquidity
and funding for medium-term operating requirements (including estimated redundancy costs).
The Group expects to have sufficient liquidity to cover payments and meet the capital requirements of the Group
for at least the next 12 months based on conservative assumptions.

Equity Raising Details
The strengthening of the Group’s balance sheet will be funded via a fully underwritten
1
Equity Raising comprising
a $30 million institutional Placement and a 1.2 for 1 pro-rata accelerated non-renounceable Entitlement Offer to
raise approximately $177 million. The Placement and Entitlement Offer will raise approximately $207 million,
with the issue of approximately 413.9 million new ordinary shares (New Shares) representing 140.3% of existing
shares on issue.
The Placement and Entitlement Offer will be conducted at an offer price of $0.50 per share (Offer Price),
representing a:
• 30.2% discount to TERP
2
; and
• 51.0% discount to the last closing price of $1.02 per share on 30 March 2020.
New Shares issued under the Placement and Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing Kathmandu
Holdings ordinary shares.
Use of Proceeds
The Group intends to use proceeds from the Equity Raising to strengthen its balance sheet.
Specifically, the Group will use the Equity Raising proceeds for the following purposes:
• to pay down the existing Revolving Multi-Option Facility ($86 million
3
);
• to provide additional cash on balance sheet ($115 million); and
• to fund the transaction costs associated with the Equity Raising.
Post the Equity Raising, the Group:
• will have total liquidity of NZ$315 million

as at 31 January 2020 from 1.9x down to pro forma 0.5x.

The Placement to institutional investors will raise $30 million at the Offer Price of $0.50 per share. The
Placement comprises the issue of 59.8 million shares to eligible sophisticated, professional and other
institutional investors located in Australia, New Zealand and select international jurisdictions. The Placement
represents 20.3% of Kathmandu Holdings’ ordinary shares on issue following the Entitlement Offer.

2020 Class Waiver and Ruling) and accordingly no shareholder approval is required to issue the New Shares.

Commenting on the 1H FY20 results, Group CEO Xavier Simonet said “Over the half year the acquisition of Rip
Curl underpinned a significant increase in our scale and substantially diversified our revenue and earnings
streams. At the same time we were able to continue growing organically given our strong customer engagement,
unique products and well-known brands.”
“We were particularly pleased to grow same store sales in Australia and New Zealand despite challenging
conditions, with Australia experiencing widespread bush fires and New Zealand having had negative same store
sales growth during the preceding two years. Oboz continued to perform strongly, with sales growing 10.4%
even though it was cycling strong sales growth following a major product launch last year,” added Mr Simonet.

Total sales in Kathmandu’s largest market, Australia, were down 0.9%, with 3 stores closed since 1H FY19.
Same stores sales growth of 2.0% was a positive result given the impacts of bushfires and unusually hot
weather.
New Zealand total sales were up 0.5%. Same store sales growth was 0.5%, following two years of negative
same store sales.
Rest of World total sales were up 6.1% at constant exchange rates, underpinned by 10.4% sales growth from
Oboz and initial orders for Kathmandu North America. Oboz expects its next major product launch to start
shipping from June 2020.
Kathmandu’s gross margin was 1.2% below 1H FY19 due to a higher clearance sales mix and higher input costs
impacted by exchange rates. Higher input costs due to exchange rates are expected to continue through 2H
FY20 and FY21.
Online comparable sales were up 33.1% at constant currency exchange rates, and now comprise 11.1% of
direct to consumer sales over the last twelve months (1H FY19: 9.5%).

Outlook
Commenting on the outlook for Kathmandu, Mr Simonet said “The acquisition of Rip Curl has created a
diversified global Group, consisting of three iconic, inspirational and authentic brands. We will continue to
develop the channels through which we deliver our innovative and technical products to our loyal consumers.”
“Sufficient inventory levels are in place for the forthcoming season for all brands, assisted by the longer lead
time of technical product categories, and a diversified supplier base.”
“While we are acting to limit the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, our long-term strategy does not change.
We are striving to be a global outdoor and action sports company underpinned by iconic brands, technical
products and a focus on sustainability. In Kathmandu, Oboz, and Rip Curl, we believe that we have authentic
and inspirational brands that will attract loyal customers for the long-term.”

PART 1: LETTER FROM THE CHAIR
Kathmandu Holdings Limited has today announced that it intends to raise approximately NZ$207 million via a
NZ$30 million underwritten placement to certain institutional investors, together with an approximately NZ$177
million underwritten 1.2 for 1 pro-rata accelerated entitlement offer (the Offer).
As you may know from our recent announcements, in line with Government regulation or generally accepted best
practice positions around the world, to minimise the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus), we have temporarily closed
stores and offices across New Zealand, Australia, Europe, Brazil and North America. The health and safety of the
Group’s employees, customers and the broader community is our highest priority.
While we are taking steps to implement, and in some cases have already implemented, aggressive and significant
cost savings and structural cost reduction initiatives across the Group, the impacts of the virus are expected to have
a material adverse effect on our financial performance. This pre-emptive decision to raise capital is intended to
fortify the Group’s balance sheet during this difficult period and ensure we will emerge in a position of strength.
The proceeds of the placement and the Offer will be used to deleverage the Group’s balance sheet and provide
liquidity and funding for medium term operating requirements while we respond to the impacts of the virus. The
Board notes the Group’s lenders remain supportive of the business.
Under the Offer, eligible shareholders may subscribe for 1.2 new ordinary shares for every 1 existing share held as
at 7.00pm (NZDT) (5.00pm (AEDT)) on the Record Date of Friday, 3 April 2020, at an application price of NZ$0.50
per new share (or A$0.49 per new share).
The application price reflects a 51% discount to NZ$1.02, being the last closing price of Kathmandu’s shares on the
NZX on 30 March 2020, and a 30.2% discount to the theoretical ex-rights price of NZ$0.72.
1
The placement and the institutional component of the Offer will be accelerated and will close on 1 April 2020.
Eligible retail shareholders have until 5.00pm (NZST) on 17 April 2020 to subscribe for new shares. In addition to
being able to take up their entitlement, eligible retail shareholders may apply for additional shares not taken up by
other retail shareholders. Online application at www.kathmandushares.com is strongly encouraged given the
likelihood of delays with the postal system at this time.
The placement and the Offer are fully underwritten by Jarden Partners Limited, Credit Suisse (Australia) Limited,
Craigs Investment Partners Limited and Forsyth Barr Group Limited. Under the Offer, there will be no trading of
entitlements or any shortfall bookbuild of new shares not taken up. Those shareholders who do not exercise their
entitlements, or who are ineligible to do so, will have their shareholdings diluted.
Reflecting their commitment to the company, I am also pleased to confirm that all non-Executive Directors intend
to take up their direct entitlements, to the extent that they are eligible to participate in the Entitlement Offer.
On behalf of the Board, I welcome your participation in the Offer and thank you for your continued support. We
hope for the good health and wellbeing of all our stakeholders during this challenging time.
Yours Sincerely,
David Kirk
Chairman

TERP is the Theoretical Ex-Rights Price at which Kathmandu ordinary shares would trade immediately after the ex-rights date for the
Offer. TERP is calculated with reference to Kathmandu’s closing share price of NZ$1.02 on 30 March 2020 and includes all new
shares issued under the placement and the Offer. TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Kathmandu
ordinary shares will trade immediately after the ex-rights date for the Offer will depend on many factors and may not be equal to
TERP.

PART 4: DETAILS OF THE OFFER
THE OFFER
The Offer is an offer of New Shares to Eligible Shareholders under a pro rata accelerated entitlement offer. Under
the Offer, Eligible Shareholders are entitled to subscribe for 1.2 New Shares for every 1 Existing Share held at 7:00
pm (NZDT) or 5:00 pm (AEDT) on the Record Date. The New Shares will be the same class as, and will rank equally
with, Existing Shares which are quoted on the NZX Main Board and ASX. It is a term of the Offer that Kathmandu
will take any necessary steps to ensure that the New Shares are, immediately after issue, quoted on the NZX Main
Board and ASX.
If you are an Eligible Shareholder you may take up all or some of your Entitlements or do nothing with all or some
of your Entitlements. If you are an Eligible Shareholder and you do not take up all of your Entitlements, your
current shareholding will be diluted as a result of the issue of New Shares.
The maximum number of New Shares being offered under the Offer is 354,087,860 New Shares (subject to
rounding). Kathmandu will raise a total of approximately NZ$177 million through the Offer, which is fully
underwritten by the Underwriters.
APPLICATION PRICE
The Application Price is NZ$0.50 (or the A$ Price) per New Share.
The A$ Price is A$0.49 per New Share. The Australian dollar price of A$0.49 has been set by Kathmandu taking into
account the NZ$:A$ exchange rate published by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand on its website for 31 March
2020.
The Application Price must be paid in full on application. Payment of the Application Price must be made, for the
Retail Entitlement Offer, together with a completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form delivered (either by mail,
delivery or email) to the Registry in accordance with the instructions set out in the Entitlement and Acceptance
Form or in accordance with the online application process.
If you elect to apply for New Shares using New Zealand Dollars, any New Shares issued to you will be issued on
Kathmandu’s NZX branch register. If you elect to apply for New Shares using the A$ Price, any New Shares issued to
you will be issued on Kathmandu’s ASX branch register.
Kathmandu may accept late applications and application monies, but it has no obligation to do so. Kathmandu may
accept or reject (at its discretion) any Entitlement and Acceptance Form or online application which it considers is
not completed correctly, and may correct any errors or omissions on any Entitlement and Acceptance Form or the
online application.
An application may not be withdrawn without Kathmandu’s prior consent once submitted.
Application monies received will be held in a trust account with the Registry until the corresponding New Shares
are allotted or the application monies are refunded. Interest earned on the application monies will be for the
benefit, and remain the property, of Kathmandu and will be retained by Kathmandu whether or not the issue of
New Shares takes place. Any refunds of application monies (without interest) will be made within 10 Business Days
of allotment (or the date that the decision not to accept an application is made, as the case may be).
10
WITHDRAWAL
Subject to Kathmandu’s compliance with all applicable laws, Kathmandu reserves the right to withdraw the Offer at
any time at its absolute discretion. If any Application is not accepted, all applicable application monies will be
refunded, without interest, to the relevant Shareholder.
OVERVIEW OF THE OFFER
Kathmandu will raise a total of approximately NZ$177 million through the Offer, which is fully underwritten by the
Underwriters. The maximum number of New Shares that are being offered under the Offer is 354,087,860 New
Shares (subject to rounding).
The Offer comprises the following components:
• the Institutional Entitlement Offer; and
• the Retail Entitlement Offer,
in each case, as described in further detail below.
The Offer is an accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer, which is made pursuant to a class waiver by NZX
granted 26 March 2020. This means that if you, as an Eligible Shareholder, do not take up your full Entitlement
under the Offer, then your Entitlement will lapse, and you will receive no value for those lapsed Entitlements.
Further, if you do not take up your Entitlement, you will have your percentage holding in Kathmandu reduced as a
result of the Offer.
PURPOSE OF THE OFFER
Kathmandu intends that the proceeds raised from the Offer will be applied to deleverage the Group’s balance
sheet and provide liquidity and funding for medium-term operating requirements (including estimated redundancy
costs).
THE INSTITUTIONAL ENTITLEMENT OFFER
Overview of the Institutional Entitlement Offer
Kathmandu is offering Eligible Institutional Shareholders the opportunity to subscribe for 1.2 New Shares for every
1 Existing Share held as at 7:00 pm (NZDT) or 5:00 pm (AEDT) on the Record Date, at an Application Price of
NZ$0.50 (or the A$ Price). This ratio and the Application Price are the same as for the Retail Entitlement Offer. The
Lead Managers will seek to approach Eligible Institutional Shareholders, who may take up all, part or none of their
Entitlements.
The Institutional Entitlement Offer opens at 10:00 am (NZDT) or 8:00 am (AEDT) on Wednesday, 1 April 2020 and
closes at 10.30 pm (NZDT) or 8.30 pm (AEDT) on Wednesday, 1 April 2020 (subject to Kathmandu’s right to modify
these dates or times).
Entitlements will not be quoted and cannot be traded on the NZX Main Board, the ASX or privately transferred.
Eligibility under the Institutional Entitlement Offer
The Institutional Entitlement Offer is only open to Eligible Institutional Shareholders. Kathmandu and the Lead
Managers will determine the Shareholders who will be treated as Eligible Institutional Shareholders for the purpose
of determining the Shareholders to whom an offer of New Shares will be made under the Institutional Entitlement
Offer. In exercising their discretion, the Lead Managers may have regard to a number of matters, including legal
and regulatory requirements and logistical and registry constraints. Kathmandu and the Lead Managers will agree
on which Shareholders will be treated as Ineligible Institutional Shareholders.
11
Kathmandu reserves the right to reject any application for New Shares under the Institutional Entitlement Offer
that it considers comes from a person who is not an Eligible Institutional Shareholder.
Acceptance of Entitlement under the Institutional Entitlement Offer
The Lead Managers may seek to contact Eligible Institutional Shareholders to inform them of the terms and
conditions of participation in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and seek confirmation of their Entitlements under
the Offer. Application for New Shares by Eligible Institutional Shareholders can only be made in accordance with
that process.
Entitlements are not rounded up to a minimum holding. The number of New Shares to which an Eligible
Institutional Shareholder is entitled under an Entitlement will, in the case of fractions of New Shares, be rounded
down to the nearest whole number. Applications in excess of an Eligible Institutional Shareholder’s Entitlement will
not be accepted.
New Shares attributable to the Institutional Entitlement Offer not taken up by Eligible Institutional Shareholders
under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the entitlements of certain Ineligible Institutional Shareholders may,
subject to demand, be allocated to Institutional Investors who participate in the institutional placement or as the
Underwriters may otherwise determine.
Settlement of the Institutional Entitlement Offer
Settlement of the Institutional Entitlement Offer will occur on the Institutional Settlement Date in accordance with
arrangements advised by the Lead Managers. Each investor remains responsible for ensuring its own compliance
with the Takeovers Code and other applicable legislation.
THE RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFER
Overview of the Retail Entitlement Offer
Kathmandu is offering Eligible Retail Shareholders the opportunity to subscribe for 1.2 New Shares for every1
Existing Share held as at 7.00pm (NZDT) or 5.00pm (AEDT) on the Record Date, at an Application Price of NZ$0.50
(or the A$ Price) per New Share. This ratio and the Application Price are the same as for the Institutional
Entitlement Offer. Eligible Retail Shareholders are sent this Offer Document together with a personalised
Entitlement and Acceptance Form and may take up all, part or none of their Entitlements.
The Retail Entitlement Offer opens on Monday, 6 April 2020 and closes at 5.00 pm (NZST) or 3.00pm (AEST) on
Friday, 17 April 2020 (subject to Kathmandu’s right to modify these dates or times).
Entitlements will not be quoted and cannot be traded on the NZX Main Board, the ASX or privately transferred.
Eligibility under the Retail Entitlement Offer
The Retail Entitlement Offer is only open to Eligible Retail Shareholders.
The Retail Entitlement Offer does not constitute an offer to any person who is not an Eligible Retail Shareholder
(including any Institutional Shareholder or an Ineligible Retail Shareholder). Any person allocated New Shares
under the Institutional Entitlement Offer does not have any entitlement to participate in the Retail Entitlement
Offer in respect of those New Shares.
Kathmandu reserves the right to reject any application for New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer that it
considers comes from a person who is not an Eligible Retail Shareholder.
12
Acceptance of Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer
The Entitlement and Acceptance Form distributed to Eligible Retail Shareholders with this Offer Document sets out
an Eligible Retail Shareholder’s Entitlement to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer. Applications for New
Shares by Eligible Retail Shareholders can only be made on an original Entitlement and Acceptance Form sent with
this Offer Document or via an online application at www.kathmandushares.com.
Entitlements are not rounded up to a minimum holding. The number of New Shares to which an Eligible Retail
Shareholder is entitled under an Entitlement will, in the case of fractions of New Shares, be rounded down to the
nearest whole number.
Eligible Retail Shareholders are not obliged to subscribe for any or all of the New Shares to which they are entitled
under the Offer. They may take up some or all of their Entitlement or allow some or all of their Entitlement to
lapse.
Any person outside New Zealand or Australia who takes up an Entitlement in the Retail Entitlement Offer (and
therefore applies for New Shares) through a New Zealand or Australian resident nominee, and their nominee, will
be deemed to have represented and warranted to Kathmandu that the Offer can be lawfully made to their
nominee pursuant to this Offer Document. None of Kathmandu, the Lead Managers, the Underwriters, the
Registrar or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, or advisers accept any liability or
responsibility to determine whether a person is eligible to participate in this Offer.
Application to take up additional New Shares
New Shares that are attributable to Entitlements that are not taken up by Eligible Retail Shareholders (together
with those attributable to Entitlements of Ineligible Retail Shareholders) will be offered to Eligible Retail
Shareholders who take up their Entitlements in full.
Eligible Retail Shareholders who have taken up all of their Entitlements in full may apply for these additional New
Shares by completing the appropriate section on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, or as directed via the
online application, and applying for additional New Shares at the Offer Price. Payment must be made for both your
Entitlements and any additional New Shares for which you wish to apply.
If you elect to apply for your Entitlements using the A$ Price, then any additional New Shares that you are applying
for must also be paid for in Australian dollars at the A$ price.
Allocations and any necessary scaling of additional New Shares applied for by Eligible Retail Shareholders who take
up their Entitlements in full will be determined by Kathmandu and the Lead Managers.
NOMINEES
If you hold Existing Shares as nominee for more than one person, then you may (depending on the nature of each
such person) be an Eligible Institutional Shareholder, Ineligible Institutional Shareholder, Eligible Retail Shareholder
or Ineligible Retail Shareholder with regard to the Entitlement of each such person.
Notice to nominees and custodians
The Retail Entitlement Offer is being made to all Eligible Retail Shareholders. Nominees with registered addresses in
the eligible jurisdictions, irrespective of whether they participated under the Institutional Entitlement Offer, may
also be able to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of some or all of the beneficiaries on whose
behalf they hold existing Shares, provided that the applicable beneficiary would satisfy the criteria for an Eligible
Retail Shareholder.
Nominees and custodians who hold Shares as nominees or custodians will receive a letter from Kathmandu.
Nominees and custodians should consider carefully the contents of that letter and note in particular that the Retail
Entitlement Offer is not available to, and they must not purport to accept the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of:
13
(a) beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold Existing Shares who would not satisfy the criteria for an
Eligible Retail Shareholder;
(b) Eligible Institutional Shareholders who received an offer to participate in the Institutional Entitlement
Offer (whether they accepted their Entitlement or not);
(c) Ineligible Institutional Shareholders who were ineligible to participate in the Institutional Entitlement
Offer; or
(d) Shareholders who are not eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the
Retail Entitlement Offer.
In particular, persons acting as nominees for other persons may not take up Entitlements on behalf of, or send any
documents relating to the Retail Entitlement Offer to, any person in the United States. Persons in the United States
and persons acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States will not be able to exercise
Entitlements under the Retail Entitlement Offer.
Kathmandu is not required to determine whether or not any registered holder is acting as a nominee or the identity
or residence of any beneficial owners of Shares or Entitlements. Where any holder is acting as a nominee for a
foreign person, that holder, in dealing with its beneficiary will need to assess whether indirect participation by the
beneficiary in the Retail Entitlement Offer is compatible with applicable foreign laws. Kathmandu is not able to
advise on foreign laws.
OVERSEAS SHAREHOLDERS
The Offer is only open to Eligible Shareholders and persons that Kathmandu is satisfied can otherwise participate in
the Offer in compliance with all applicable laws. Kathmandu has determined that it is unreasonable to extend the
Retail Entitlement Offer to Ineligible Retail Shareholders and the Institutional Entitlement Offer to Ineligible
Institutional Shareholders because of the small number of such Shareholders, the number and value of Shares that
they hold and the cost of complying with the applicable regulations in jurisdictions outside New Zealand and
Australia.
This Offer Document is only being sent by Kathmandu to Eligible Shareholders. The distribution of this Offer
Document (including an electronic copy) outside New Zealand or Australia may be restricted by law. Any failure to
comply with such restrictions may contravene applicable securities law. Kathmandu disclaims all liability to such
persons.
Nominees and custodians may not distribute any part of this Offer Document, and may not permit any beneficial
shareholder to participate in the Offer who is located, in the United States or any other country outside New
Zealand and Australia except to institutional and professional investors listed in, and to the extent permitted under,
this section.

material or fundamental changes in financial, economic and political conditions in certain countries or
financial markets.
• If the Underwriting Agreement is terminated, a termination fee may be payable to the Underwriters.
16

issue of any Shares or other equity securities by Kathmandu; or
o make any announcement of an intention to do any of the above,
other than pursuant to existing employee incentive plans (including as may be amended or updated from
time to time), the placement or the Offer; or
o dispose of or charge, or agree to dispose of or charge, the whole or any substantial part of the

TERMS AND RANKING OF NEW SHARES
New Shares will rank equally with, and have the same voting rights, dividend rights and other entitlements as,
Existing Shares in Kathmandu quoted on the NZX Main Board and ASX. Entitlements will not be quoted and cannot
be traded on the NZX Main Board, ASX or privately transferred. It is a term of the Offer that Kathmandu will take
any necessary steps to ensure that the New Shares are, immediately after issue, quoted on the NZX Main Board
and ASX.
Kathmandu does not have a formal dividend policy. However, Kathmandu’s Board has taken the prudent decision
to suspend dividend payments until after such time as more normal trading conditions resume.
17
NZX
The New Shares have been accepted for quotation by NZX and will be quoted on the NZX Main Board upon
completion of allotment procedures. The NZX Main Board is a licensed market under the FMCA. However, NZX
accepts no responsibility for any statement in this Offer Document. It is expected that trading on the NZX Main
Board of the New Shares issued under:
• the Institutional Entitlement Offer will commence on Thursday, 9 April 2020; and

on ASX of the New Shares issued under:
• the Institutional Entitlement Offer will commence on Thursday, 9 April 2020; and
• the Retail Entitlement Offer will commence on Monday, 27 April 2020.
ASX accepts no responsibility for any statement in this Offer Document. The fact that ASX may approve the New
Shares for quotation is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of Kathmandu. Holding statements
for New Shares allotted under the Offer will be issued and mailed as soon as practicable after allotment. Applicants
under the Offer should ascertain their allocation before trading in the New Shares. Applicants can do so by
contacting the Registrar, whose contact details are set out in the Directory.
Applicants selling New Shares prior to receiving a holding statement do so at their own risk. No person accepts any
liability or responsibility should any person attempt to sell or otherwise deal with New Shares before the holding

Shares.

1.Pro forma liquidity as at 31 January 2020, which consists of committed undrawn multi-option facility plus cash on balance sheet post settlement of the underwritten Placement and Entitlement Offer (net of fees and expenses)
Overview of
Actions Being
Taken
»A large number of initiatives have already been undertaken covering distribution, supply chain, leases, various operating and capital
expenditure, and people. In addition to these changes, the Group is taking pre-emptive action to ensure it remains strongly capitalised
during the current market uncertainties with sufficient liquidity to maintain its strong position across all brands:
»Suspending the Group’s dividend until trading conditions improve. This includes the Group’s interim dividend for the half year
ending 31 January 2020
»Working with existing banking group, which has provided a covenant waiver for the periods ending 31 July 2020 and 31 January
2021, and a relaxation of certain covenants for the period ending 31 July 2021, subject to successful completion of a minimum
NZ$150 million equity raising
»Executing a fully underwritten NZ$207 million Equity Raising
Strengthening
Balance Sheet and
Liquidity Position
»The Group has launched an Equity Raising comprising a fully underwritten NZ$30 million placement (Placement) and a fully
underwritten NZ$177 million pro-rata accelerated entitlement offer (Entitlement Offer)
»The proceeds of the Equity Raising will be used to deleverage the Group’s balance sheet and provide liquidity and funding formedium-
term operating requirements (including estimated redundancy costs). Refer to the following page for details on planned uses of funding
and the Group’s pro forma capitalisation
»Post the Equity Raising, the Group:
»Will have total liquidity of NZ$315million
*1
, with no debt maturities prior to November 2022
»Expects to have sufficient liquidity to cover payments and meet the capital requirements of the Group for at least the next 12
months based on conservative assumptions
»Expects to be in a position to meet its amended covenant test for the period ending 31 July 2021

Key Risks Relating to the Equity Raising
28
»This Section sets out the key risks Kathmandu has identified relating to the Equity Raising. These risks may affect the future operating
and financial performance of the Group and the value of Kathmandu shares. Please note that this Section does not (and does not purport
to) set out all of the key risks related to an investment in Kathmandu shares or in relation to the Group, its business or general market or
industry risks
»Investors should be aware that the spread of COVID-19, the effect on the global economy and actions taken in response by governments
are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Group, its financial performance and position. It is also likely that there will be further
unforeseen negative impacts as COVID-19 continues to spread. The Group will continue to respond to the challenges facing it, but there
is no certainty as to the severity or likelihood of any such unforeseen impacts arising nor whether any mitigating action will be effective or
can be taken
»Before deciding whether to invest in Kathmandu shares, you must make your own assessment of the risks associated with an investment
in Kathmandu, including the inherent uncertainties as to the impact of COVID-19 noted above, and consider whether such an investment
is suitable for you having regard to publicly available information (including this presentation), your personal circumstances and following
consultation with a financial or other professional adviser
Key Risks Relating to the Equity Raising (cont.)
29
RiskDetails
Storeand demand
risks
»Some of the Group’s stores and customers are located in countries which are heavily affected by the spread of COVID-19. The travel and movement restrictions now in
place across many countries globally have negatively affected the Group’s operations where the majority of its stores and wholesale customers are now closed (whether
due to enforced or voluntary closures)
»Due to the uncertainty regarding the spread of COVID-19 globally, the duration of closures and impacts on future demand, at thistime the Group cannot forecast the
extent to which COVID-19 will impact the business in the second half of this fiscal year. However, there is likely to be a material adverse impact to FY20 earnings
»There is an additional risk that the impacts of COVID-19 could extend beyond FY20 and have a material adverse impact on FY21 earnings
Supply chain risk
»Sufficient inventory levels are in place for the forthcoming season for all brands, assisted by the longer lead time of technical product categories, and a diversified supplier
base. Due to recent work from the Group’s supply chain team in conjunction with key suppliers, the Group is currently not expecting material delays in product availability
for following seasons
»However, there remains a risk that the spread of COVID-19 has an adverse impact on the supply chain of the Group. This could occur if the ability to transport products
between countries is disrupted, the Group’s key suppliers are negatively affected or the Group is otherwise unable to efficiently distribute products to its stores and
customers
»In the event that the supply chain of the Group is disrupted, this may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s operating performance and earnings
Capital sufficiency
risk
»The Group has undertaken a capital sufficiency modelling exercise to assist in determining the size of the Offer. Based on this model, the Group expects to have sufficient
liquidity to cover payments and meet the capital requirements of the Group for at least the next 12 months
»The model is based on what the Group believes to be conservative assumptions as to the impact of COVID-19. However, there remains a risk that the impacts of COVID-
19 are worse than anticipated, that cost-out assumptions cannot be achieved (for example, rent abatements remain under negotiation with landlords), or that collection of
receivables is slower than assumed and bad debts are higher than assumed due to the Group’s exposure to the risk of wholesalecustomers and others being unable to
pay the Group. As a result of these factors the Group may have insufficient liquidity to cover payments or meet its capital requirements. If this occurred, the Group may
need access to additional equity or debt funding, or take other measures that have a material adverse effect on the Group’s operating performance and earnings
Key Risks Relating to the Equity Raising (cont.)
30
RiskDetails
Banking support risk
»The Group is working with its existing banking group and has received a covenant waiver for the periods ending 31 July 2020 and 31 January 2021, and a relaxation of
certain covenants for the period ending 31 July 2021, subject to successful completion of a minimum NZ$150 million equity raising.There remains a risk that the
underwriting agreement is terminated and the Group is unable to successfully complete a minimum NZ$150 million equity raising, as required by the covenant waiver
»The Group’s model, which is based on conservative assumptions, indicates that a waiver for the periods ending 31 July 2020 and 31 January 2021, and a relaxation of
certain covenants for the period ending 31 July 2021 (subject to successful completion of a minimum NZ$150 million equity raising) will provide the Group with sufficient
time to achieve full compliance with its existing covenants. However,there remains a risk that the impact of COVID-19 on the Group is worse than anticipated and may
result in non-compliance with covenants for the period ending 31 July 2021 or otherwise trigger an event of default under the Group’s facilities, and the Group is unable to
obtain further support from its banking group.If this occurred, the Group may need to refinance its existing debt on less favourable terms or take other actions to achieve
compliance with its covenants, which may have a material adverse effect on its operating performance and earnings
General business
disruption risk
»In response to trading conditions the Group has taken and is taking further decisive actions, specifically in reducing operatingexpenses, deferring non-essential capital
projects, optimising labour costs, managing inventory levels and implementing a travel and hiring freeze. The Group will alsolook to access all Government subsidies and
other support that is available to it in the jurisdictions in which it operates. While the Group is carefully considering theactions it takes in response to COVID-19, these
actionsand the impact of COVID-19 on the way businessesoperate generally may negatively affect the ability of the Group to operate effectively, which may in turn have
a material adverse effect on its operating performance and earnings
»In addition, the Group’s trading performance once stores reopen may be worse than anticipated, whether due to demand being slower to return than anticipated, margins
being reduced due to the activity of competitors or the need for greater discounting than usual to attract customers, cost reductions having a negative impact on the
Group’s abilityto recommence operationsquickly and effectivelyor other unforeseen factors. If these factors arise, they may have a material adverse effect on the
Group’s financial position and performance

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
The Directors of Kathmandu Holdings Limited present the Interim Report for the Company and its controlled entities for the
half year ended 31 January 2020.
Review of Operations
The consolidated net profit after tax for the period was NZ$8.1 million (2019: NZ$14.0 million) including acquisition costs of
NZ$10.1m. The consolidated net profit after tax excluding acquisition costs is NZ$18.2m. Sales for the period were NZ$363.7
million (2019: NZ$232.0 million).
A review of the operations of the Company and its controlled entities is set out in the accompanying Company’s media release
of 1 April 2020. The key line items in the half year results were:
Sales up 56.7% to NZ$363.7m,
EBIT up NZ$2.9m to NZ$23.8m,
NPAT down NZ$5.8m to NZ$8.1m.
Seasonality

historically provide a larger portion of the sales and net profit for the full year.
Going Concern and the Impact of COVID-19
The Group has reviewed the impact on the business from the rapidly evolving COVID-19 situation. Providing accurate
forecasts in this rapidly evolving environment is challenging however the Directors are of the view that there is likely to be a
material adverse impact to earnings in the next 12 months. Refer to Note 16 of the Financial Statements for further disclosure
about the impact of COVID-19 on the going concern assumption.
Signed in accordance with a resolution of the directors:
David Kirk Xavier Simonet

1 GENERAL INFORMATION
Kathmandu Holdings Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (together the Group) is a designer, marketer, retailer and
wholesaler of apparel, footwear and equipment for surfing and the outdoors. It operates in New Zealand, Australia, North
America, Europe, South East Asia and Brazil.
The Company is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand. Kathmandu Holdings Limited is a
company registered under the Companies Act 1993 and is a FMC reporting entity under Part 7 of the Financial Markets
Conduct Act 2013. The address of its registered office is 223 Tuam Street, Christchurch.
These consolidated interim financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 1 April 2020, and
have been reviewed, not audited.
Seasonality
Due to the seasonal nature of the Company and its controlled entities activities, the activities in the second half of the year
historically provide a larger portion of the sales and net profit for the full year.
2 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
These general purpose financial statements for the six months ended 31 January 2020 have been prepared in accordance with
NZ IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. In complying with NZ IAS 34, these consolidated interim financial statements also
comply with IAS 34.
These consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial
report. Accordingly, this report should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of Kathmandu Holdings
Limited for the year ended 31 July 2019 which have been prepared in accordance with the New Zealand equivalents to
International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The Group is designated as a profit-oriented entity for financial reporting purposes.
3 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Other than the new accounting standards adopted during the period as set out in Note 18 and the earnings per share and
segment restatement noted below, the consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the same
accounting policies and methods of computation as those used in the audited financial statements of Kathmandu Holdings
Limited for the year ended 31 July 2019.
The Group has restated the prior year basic and diluted EPS to reflect the impact of the implied bonus element on shares
issued from the institutional entitlement offer on 11 October 2019, retail entitlement offer on 29 October 2019 and share
placement on 31 October 2019. Shares were issued at an issue price of NZ$2.55, representing a 14.4% discount to the
NZ$2.98 volume weighted average price (ex-dividend) of Kathmandu’s shares traded on the NZX for the last five trading days
prior to 1 October 2019, and a 13.6% discount to the theoretical ex-entitlement price of NZ$2.95.
The Group has restated the January 2019 segment disclosure in Note 6 to align the comparative disclosure with the new
operating segments identified following the acquisition of Rip Curl Group Pty Ltd in October 2019.

6 SEGMENTAL INFORMATION
Following the acquisition of Rip Curl Group Pty Limited in October 2019 the Group has three operating segments.
Outdoor – including the Kathmandu and Oboz brands. This segment designs, markets, retails and wholesales apparel,
footwear and equipment for outdoor travel and adventure.
Surf – including the Rip Curl brand. This segment designs, manufactures, wholesales and retails surfing equipment and
appreal.
The Corporate segment represents group costs, holding companies and consolidation eliminations and constitutes other
business activities that do not fall within outdoor or surf segments.
These operating segments have been determined based on the reports reviewed by the Group Chief Executive Officer and
Group Executive Management team.
EBITDA represents earnings before income taxes (a non-GAAP measure), excluding interest income, interest expense,
depreciation and amortisation, as reported in the financial statements. EBIT represents EBITDA less depreciation and
amortisation.
Costs recharged between Group companies are calculated on an arms-length basis. The default basis of allocation is % of
revenue with other bases being used where appropriate.

instruments sub-facility of A$20 million. All facilities are repayable in full on 30 November 2022.
Interest is payable based on the BKBM rate (NZD borrowings), the BBSY rate (AUD borrowings), or the applicable short term
rate for interest periods less than 30 days, plus a margin of up to 1.05%. The debt is secured by the assets of the guaranteeing
group in accordance with the Security Trust Deed dated 25 October 2019.
The covenants entered into by the Group require specified calculations of Group earnings (excluding one-off transaction costs)
before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) plus lease rental costs to exceed total fixed charges (net interest
expense and lease rental costs) at the end of each half during the financial year. Similarly EBITDA (excluding one-off
transaction costs) must be no less than a specified proportion of total net debt at the end of each six month interim period. The
calculations of these covenants are specified in the bank facility agreement of 25 October 2019 and have been complied with at
31 January 2020.
The current interest rates, prior to hedging, on the term loans ranged from 1.89% - 2.30% (2019: 2.56% - 3.34%).

13 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(a) Financial risk factors
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit
risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and
seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group uses derivative financial
instruments such as foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps to manage certain risk exposures. Derivatives are
exclusively used for economic hedging purposes, i.e. not as trading or other speculative instruments, however not all derivative
financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting.
Risk management is carried out based on policies approved by the Board of Directors. The Group treasury policy provides
written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group manages this
risk by actively managing working capital and ensuring flexibility in funding arrangements. Refer to Note 7 for details of the
funding arrangements in place as at 31 January 2020. Also refer to Note 16 for the liquidity risk in relation to the impact of
COVID-19.
The consolidated interim financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required
in the annual financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements as at 31
July 2019. There have been no changes in the risk management department or in any risk.
(b) Fair value estimation
The only financial instruments held by the Group that are measured at fair value are over-the-counter derivatives. These
derivatives have all been determined to be within level 2 (for the purposes of NZ IFRS 13) of the fair value hierarchy as all
significant inputs required to ascertain the fair value of these derivatives are observable.
There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period.
KATHMANDU HOLDINGS LIMITED - INTERIM REPORT 2020
12
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values for each class of financial instrument.
Trade debtors, trade creditors and bank balances
The carrying value of these items is equivalent to their fair value.
Term liabilities
The fair value of the Group's term liabilities is approximately carrying value.
Foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps
The forward foreign exchange contracts have been fair valued using forward exchange rates that are quoted in an active
market. Interest rate swaps are fair valued using forward interest rates extracted from observable yield curves. The effects of
discounting are insignificant for these derivatives.
Guarantees and overdraft facilities
The fair value of these instruments is estimated on the basis that management do not expect settlement at face value to arise.
The carrying value and fair value of these instruments is approximately nil. All guarantees are repayable on demand.
The following table presents the group’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at 31 January 2020.

14 ACQUISITION OF RIP CURL GROUP PTY LTD
On 31 October 2019 Kathmandu Holdings Limited through its wholly-owned subsidiary Barrel Wave Holdings Pty Limited
acquired 100% of the equity interests in Rip Curl Group Pty Limited and its controlled entities based out of Australia. The total
purchase price was A$350,000,000. The non-controlling interest on acquisition relates to the interest acquired by the Group in
Rip Curl joint ventures in New Zealand, Thailand and Europe.
Rip Curl is a designer, manufacturer and retailer of surfing equipment and apparel, and has a global presence across Australia,
New Zealand, North America, Europe, South East Asia and Brazil. The acquisition creates a global outdoor and action sports
company anchored by two iconic Australian brands and provides the opportunity for Kathmandu to considerably diversify its
geographic footprint, channels to market and seasonality profile.
At the time the interim financial report was authorised for issue, the Group had not yet finalised the purchase price allocation for
the acquisition of Rip Curl. Fair values of the assets and liabilities disclosed below are determined provisionally as
management is in process of reviewing the details of independent valuations. In segment information (Note 6), management
temporarily allocates related assets and liabilities of the acquired business in the "Surf" segment. The Group expects to finalise
the purchase price allocation in the next few months.
Goodwill arising on acquisition
On completion of the purchase price allocation, goodwill may be recognised on the acquisition of Rip Curl because of the
established workforce and control premiums paid. This is not recognised separately from goodwill as the expected future
economic benefits arising cannot be reliably measured and they do not meet the definition of identifiable intangible assets.
Acquisition costs
Acquisition related costs of $10,073,000 have been excluded from the consideration transferred and are included in
administration and general expenses in the statement of comprehensive income and in operating cash flows in the statement of
cash flows in the current year.

15 LEASES
The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. The Group recognises a right-of-use
asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term
leases (defined as leases with a term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets. For these leases, the Group
recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another
systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.
Lease Liability
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date,
discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental
borrowing rate. The Group's incremental borrowing rate has been determined as the rate of interest that the Group would have
to pay to borrow over a similar term and with a similar security the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the
right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise:
fixed lease payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives; and
variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the
commencement date.
The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the
effective interest method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.
The Group remeasures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset) whenever;
the lease term has changed in which case the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments
using a revised discount rate;
the lease payments change due to changes in an index or rate or a change in expected payment under a guaranteed
residual value, in which cases the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using the
initial discount rate (unless the lease payments change is due to a change in a floating interest rate, in which case a
revised discount rate is used);
a lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, in which case the
lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate.
Right of Use Asset
The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before
the commencement day and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses.
Whenever the Group incurs an obligation for costs to dismantle and remove a leased asset, restore the site on which it is
located or restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, a provision is
recognised and measured under NZ IAS 37. The costs are included in the related right-of-use asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. The
depreciation starts at the commencement date.
The Group applies NZ IAS 36 Impairment of Assets to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and accounts for any
identified impairment loss.
Variable Rents
Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and the right-of-
use asset. The related payments are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those
payments occurs and are included in the selling expenses line in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Group as a lessee
The Group leases several assets including buildings and motor vehicles. Some of the existing lease arrangements have right of
renewal options for varying terms. Renewal options are included within the lease liability if they are within 2 years and the
Group is reasonably certain to take up the option. The average lease term including rights of renewal is 7 years.
Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on acquisition
These relate to the acquisition of Rip Curl Group Pty Ltd. The Group is yet to complete the review over the term of the lease
and incremental borrowing rates. This will be completed together with the purchase price allocation (note 14).

Some of the property leases in which the Group is the lessee contain variable lease payment terms that are linked to sales
generated from the leased stores. Variable payment terms are used to link rental payments to store cash flows and reduce
fixed cost.
Overall the variable payments constitute up to 0.2% of the Group's entire lease payments. The Group expects this ratio to
remain constant in future years. The variable payments depend on sales and consequently on the overall economic
development over the next few years. Taking into account the development of sales expected over the next 3 years, variable
rent expenses are expected to continue to present a similar proportion of store sales in future years.
The total cash outflow for leases amounts to $48,175,000.

16 GOING CONCERN AND THE IMPACT OF COVID-19
The Group has reviewed the impact on the business from the rapidly evolving COVID-19 situation. As at the date of this report
the Group has sufficient inventory levels for the forthcoming season for all brands. However there has been significant
reduction in foot traffic across the Group’s store footprint globally with Government enforced shutdowns of store locations.
Given the New Zealand Government announced move to Stage 4 all New Zealand stores are now closed until notified by the
Government. The Group also closed the Australian retail stores as of 27 March 2019.
Providing accurate forecasts in this rapidly evolving environment is challenging however the Directors are of the view that there
will be a material adverse impact to earnings in the next 12 months.
In response to these trading conditions the Group is taking decisive actions, specifically in reducing operating expenses,
deferring non-essential capital projects, optimising labour costs, managing inventory levels and has implemented a travel and
hiring freeze. The Group has also accessed available government incentives.
Even after taking these steps into consideration the Group is forecasting to breach its bank covenants within the immediate
future. The Directors have therefore decided to proceed with a capital raise to provide sufficient liquidity headroom given the
uncertainty of future earnings presented with the COVID-19 situation.
In addition, the Group has sought support from its banking syndicate in the form of a waiver of current covenant measurements
until the 31 July 2021 measurement point and is renegotiating the terms of its banking facilities. The covenant waiver is
dependent on the successful completion of the proposed capital raise by April 2020. The Directors have taken all reasonable
steps to ensure the successful completion of the capital raise including signing an underwriting agreement with Craigs
Investment Partners Limited, Forsyth Barr Limited, Credit Suisse AG and Jarden Limited as Joint Lead Managers and Joint
Bookrunners (“JLMs”) of the capital raise, however these steps do not eliminate the inherent equity market risk.
Having taken these actions the Directors have concluded that it is appropriate that these financial statements are prepared on a
going concern basis. However, it is acknowledged that there are material uncertainties with respect to the Group successfully
renegotiating revised terms on its banking facilities, forecasting revenue in the COVID-19 environment, whether the capital
raise can be achieved and whether the amount raised is sufficient to meet the Group's funding requirements for the next 12
months.
The Directors acknowledge that if the Group does not complete its capital raise and successfully renegotiate revised terms on
its banking facilities, or is unable to secure alternative funding then the going concern assumption may not be appropriate.
These matters therefore indicate that there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to
continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal
course of business.

17 EVENTS OCCURRING AFTER BALANCE DATE
As discussed in Note 16, the rapid global rise of COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the global financial markets and
asset prices have materially changed. The values of the Group's assets and liabilities may have materially changed since 31
January 2020 including the value of the Group's intangible assets (goodwill and brands) and its financial instruments. An
assessment of the underlying values of the Group's assets and liabilities and the extent of any potential change in values can
be made once some normality has returned to the market or at the latest in the Group's financial statements for the year ending
31 July 2020.
18 NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
(a) New standards first applied in the period
New
Accounting
Standard
Effective Date
Applicable to
the Group
Summary of Changes Group Impact
NZ IFRS 16
Leases
1 August 2019 Introduces a single lessee
accounting model requiring a
lessee to recognise assets
and liabilities for all leases
with a term of more than 12
months where they are not
considered low value. A
right-of-use asset is
recognised representing the
right to use the underlying
leased asset and a lease
liability representing the
obligations to make lease
payments. As a
consequence, a lessee
recognises depreciation of
the right-of-use asset and
interest on the lease liability.
The Group has applied NZ IFRS 16 using a modified
retrospective transition method. Comparative figures
have not been restated and the cumulative effect of
initially applying IFRS 16 has been recognised as an
opening retained earnings adjustment.
NZ IFRS 16 changes how the Group accounts for
leases previously classified as operating leases under
NZ IAS 17, which were off-balance-sheet.
Applying NZ IFRS 16, for all leases (except as noted
below), the Group has:
a) recognised lease liabilities and right-of-use assets in
the consolidated balance sheet. Lease liabilities have
been initially measured at the present value of the
remaining lease payments, discounted using the
incremental borrowing rate at 1 August 2019. Right-of-
use assets has been initially measured at carrying
amount as if NZ IFRS 16 had always applied since the
lease commencement date, using a discount rate
based on the incremental borrowing rate at 1 August
2019;
b) recognised depreciation of right-of-use assets and
interest on lease liabilities in the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income; and
c) separated the total amount of cash paid into a
principal portion (presented within financing activities)
and interest (presented within operating activities) in
the consolidated statement of cash flows.
Lease incentives (eg rent free periods) are recognised
as part of the measurement of the right-of-use assets
and lease liabilities whereas under NZ IAS 17 they
resulted in the recognition of a lease liability, amortised
as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line
basis.
Under NZ IFRS 16, right-of-use assets are tested for
impairment in accordance with NZ IAS 36 Impairment
of Assets. This replaces the previous requirement to
recognise a provision for onerous lease contracts.
For short-term leases (lease term of 12 months or less)
and leases of low-value assets (such as office
equipment), the Group has opted to recognise a lease
expense on a straight-line basis as permitted by NZ
KATHMANDU HOLDINGS LIMITED - INTERIM REPORT 2020
18
IFRS 16. This expense is presented within selling
expenses and administration and general expenses
within the consolidated statement of comprehensive
income.
The Group has used the following practical expedients
on initial application of NZ IFRS 16;
- whether an existing contract is, or contains, a lease
has not been reassessed;
- applied a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases
with reasonably similar characteristics;
- relied on its assessment of whether leases are
onerous applying NZ IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent
Liabilities and Contingent Assets immediately before 1
August 2019 as an alternative to performing an
impairment review;
- excluded initial direct costs from the measurement of
the right-of-use asset at 1 August 2019;
- used hindsight in determining the lease term if the
contract contains options to extend or terminate the
lease.
(b) Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective
There are no standards or amendments published but not yet effective that are expected to have a significant impact on the
group.

INCORPORATION
The company is incorporated in New Zealand.
Independent review report
To the shareholders of Kathmandu Holdings Limited
Report on the consolidated interim financial statements
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements of Kathmandu
Holdings Limited (the Company) and its controlled entities (the Group) on pages 3 to 18,
which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 January 2020, and the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the
consolidated statement of cash flows for the period ended on that date, and selected
explanatory notes.
Directors’responsibility for the consolidated interim financial statements
The Directors’are responsible on behalf of the Company for the preparation and fair
presentation of these consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with International
Accounting Standard 34Interim Financial Reporting(IAS 34) and New Zealand Equivalent to
International Accounting Standard 34Interim Financial Reporting(NZ IAS 34) and for such
internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of
consolidated interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the accompanying consolidated interim financial
statements based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with the New Zealand
Standard on Review Engagements 2410Review of Financial Statements Performed by the
Independent Auditor of the Entity(NZ SRE 2410). NZ SRE 2410 requires us to conclude
whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the consolidated
interim financial statements, taken as a whole, are not prepared in all material respects, in
accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS 34. As the auditors of the Company, NZ SRE 2410 requires
that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial
statements.
A review of consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 is a
limited assurance engagement. The auditor performs procedures, primarily consisting of
making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and
applying analytical and other review procedures.
The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit
conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and
International Standards on Auditing. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on these
consolidated interim financial statements.
We are independent of the Group. Our firm carries out other services for the Group in the areas
of agreed procedures over store turnover certificates, a covenant compliance audit, tax
compliance and tax advisory services. The provision of these other services has not impaired
our independence.

Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these
consolidated interim financial statements of the Group do not present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Group as at 31 January 2020, and its financial
performance and cash flows for the period then ended, in accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS
34.
Material uncertainty relating to Going Concern
We draw attention to note 16 to the consolidated interim financial statements which describe
the impacts of the COVID-19 situation on trading, a forecasted breach of banking covenants
within the immediate future and measures taken by the Group which include a proposed capital
raise, renegotiated banking facilities including a covenant waiver or securing alternative
funding. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast doubt
on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect
of this matter.
Who we report to
This report is made solely to the Company’s Shareholders, as a body. Our review work has been
undertaken so that we might state to the Company’s shareholders those matters which we are
required to state to them in our review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the
shareholders, as a body, for our review procedures, for this report, or for the conclusion we have
formed.
