Underlying profit is a non-GAAP* measure and differs from NZ IFRS profit for the period. Underlying profit
does not have a standardised meaning prescribed by GAAP and so may not be comparable to similar financial

information presented by other entities.

The Group uses underlying profit, with other measures, to measure performance. Underlying profit is a

measure that the Group uses consistently across reporting periods.

Underlying profit excludes deferred taxation, taxation expense, and unrealised movement on investment

properties because these items do not reflect the trading performance of the Company. Underlying profit

determines the dividend payout to shareholders.

Report to

RYMAN HEALTHCARE

6

We are pleased to report on good
progress at Ryman Healthcare

despite the impact of COVID-19.

Our first half unaudited underlying

profit dropped by 14.2% to $88.4

million, due to restrictions on sales

and construction activity caused by

the pandemic.

Unaudited reported (IFRS) profit,

which includes unrealised fair value

gains on investment property,

increased 12.8% to $212.4 million

in the six months to 30 September.

Shareholders will receive an interim

dividend of 8.8 cents per share in

line with 50% of underlying profit.

The record date for entitlements is

11 December, and the dividend will be

paid on 18 December 2020.

We are very proud of our success at

keeping COVID-19 at bay during the

half – there is nothing more important

than keeping our residents and our

team safe.

That is down to some extraordinarily

hard work by our Rymanians and

some outstanding patience and

goodwill from our residents and

their families.

It has been a huge team effort and we

cannot thank everyone enough for

what has been achieved.

People first

COVID-19 is a once-in-a-generation

challenge and we bore the full brunt

of it in the first half.

It was a difficult six months which

is reflected in the results.

The pandemic increased costs

and severely restricted sales and

construction activity during extended

lockdowns in our key markets in

Auckland and Victoria.

We have spent roughly $50 million

since we first learned about the

threat of COVID-19 in January on

a range of responses as we put

the protection of our people first.

This has ranged from buying large

stocks of additional PPE and paying

increased sick leave allowances

through to providing additional

services to look after residents’

wellbeing during the lockdowns.

But with lockdowns coming off in

Victoria and a buoyant housing

market in New Zealand, we are

expecting conditions to improve in

the second half.

Ryman has a record number of new

villages in the pipeline.

While there is likely to be

some ongoing uncertainty due

to the pandemic, there is clearly

a lot of pent-up demand in the

housing market.

We are anticipating cash collections

of at least $275 million in the second

half from new sales.

With 12 villages under construction

and more on the way, we have a

strong platform for growth.

HALF YEAR REPORT 2020

7

Villages in demand
Ryman’s integrated villages and

high-quality care continued to be

in strong demand in the first half,

with care occupancy in established

villages running at 97%. Only 1.9% of

the retirement village portfolio was

available for resale at 30 September.

The focus in the coming year will

continue to be on keeping villages

COVID-19 free, developing the team,

innovating to improve the experience

of living and working in a Ryman

community, and delivering new

villages to meet demand.

Hitting a milestone in Victoria

The construction team continued

to build throughout the COVID-19

emergency in Victoria and we are

planning to have five villages open in

the state by 31 December, although

there is potential for this to be slightly

delayed because of the pandemic.

Opening five villages by the end of

2020 was a stretch target when we

set it five years ago, and it will be a

significant achievement by the team.

We remain absolutely committed

to Victoria.

We have built an outstanding record

for care and reputation for quality in

the state and we think this will serve

us well in the recovery.

To take us forward from this great

position, we have decided to recruit

a chief executive of Ryman Australia

as a new member of the senior

executive team.

This reflects the growth opportunity

in Victoria and beyond and would

not have been possible without the

significant achievements of our

teams over recent years.

Building despite COVID-19

Trading was severely restricted

for almost all of the six-month

period in Victoria and allowable

levels of construction activity in

metropolitan Melbourne fluctuated

as the rules changed.

Our New Zealand construction sites

were shut completely for more than

five weeks in March and April.

We have learned that shutting down

or reducing the activity levels on large

construction sites is not easy and

it took a lot of time to reopen safely

under COVID-19 conditions and to

get the flywheel moving again.

Despite this, we still managed to

achieve some significant milestones.

“We are absolutely

committed to

forging on because

of the demand we

see ahead.”

RYMAN HEALTHCARE

We have officially opened our
beautiful Murray Halberg Retirement

Village in Lynfield, Auckland.

We have also opened our village

and care centre at William Sanders

in Devonport where we still have

additional large stages completing in

the second half.

Our first residents moved in at James

Wattie in Havelock North and at

Miriam Corban on Lincoln Road in

West Auckland. Both are wonderful

new villages with contemporary

looks, and our first residents could

not have been more positive.

Highton, our third village in Victoria,

welcomed its first residents in August

and the next two to open in Victoria

will be Ocean Grove and John Flynn

Retirement Village at Burwood East.

A dozen on the go

COVID-19 struck just as we

entered a phase of record

construction investment.

We are absolutely committed

to forging on because of the

extraordinary demand we see

ahead of us.

The 12 villages currently in progress

are likely to generate $2.7 billion

in capital proceeds and recurring

income of $220 million on completion.

Collectively, those sites will recycle

capital, which is always our objective.

We have a healthy forward

order book to support our plans.

Currently we have $430 million of

unconditional new sale contracts in

place which will be collected in cash

over the next 12 to 18 months.

Of the $430 million, $275 million

of contracts is anticipated to be

collected in the second half of this

financial year.

Committed to our model

The board has recently held deep

dive strategy days with the senior

executive team. The sort of areas we

have been discussing are as diverse

as what will our residents seek out in

10 years’ time, and what challenges

might we face with staff recruitment.

Everything was on the table –

as it should be – and we believe

Ryman’s business model remains

entirely sound.

That is not to say there are not

things to work on, and places we

can improve.

Our model is tried and tested, and

our aim remains to deliver as many

Ryman communities as possible

in New Zealand and in Australia,

wherever there is demand.

Our main conclusion from the days

was that major transformation is

not required but continued iterative

change that we have undertaken

over 30 years is appropriate.

HALF YEAR REPORT 2020

9

And of course, we will continue
to listen to our residents and their

families, innovate, improve and

make sure we are as relevant as

possible to them.

We will continue to come up with

different choices for our residents.

An example is our decision to

trial Refundable Accommodation

Deposits (RADs) in New Zealand

for the first time.

This gives residents a different option

for paying care premiums, and we

think they have good potential.

Ambitions remain the same

We will continue to reinvest 50% of

our underlying profits in expansion,

and the other half will be returned to

shareholders as dividends.

Our half year underlying profit came

in well below our medium-term

growth target of 15% per year.

This target has been our holy grail for

many years. If we achieve 15% annual

growth it means we double profits

every five years, which indeed we

have for many years.

We are very conscious that we have

not hit this target in recent years, and

this is an area of significant focus for

the board and management.

For the year ending 31 March 2020,

we were indeed on target to hit 15%

and then we were hit by COVID-19

which significantly impacted the last

couple of months of the financial

year, which is always our biggest

trading period.

In the first half of this year, we

were expecting strong growth

from Victoria, and this has been

significantly impacted by COVID-19

right across all of our trading despite

the team’s best efforts.

And on top of this, New Zealand

was of course significantly affected

as well.

The plain fact is that COVID-19

has been a once-in-a-generation

challenge and that is why we are

not in a position to be providing

guidance for our annual result at

the half-way point.

But we have learned a lot about

COVID-19 and about ourselves, and

still managed to achieve an awful

lot this year, which puts us in a good

position to again meet that 15% target

in the medium term.

Staying relevant

COVID-19 has been a challenge

like no other.

If we have learned one thing this year,

it is that security and reassurance

of living in a village community is

more important than ever. We think

this will result in even more

demand for the quality of life that

living in a Ryman village offers

in the years ahead.

RYMAN HEALTHCARE

10

Our residents have told us
that they love the comfort and

security of living in a supportive

community where there is plenty

of help on hand to take care of

every need. They find it reassuring

that they can easily hunker down

during the lockdown surrounded

by caring and experienced health

professionals who are there to help

with anything that they might need.

And their families love that we share

the responsibility to keep their loved

ones safe.

We would just like to add one more

vote of thanks to everyone in the

Ryman family.

It has been a difficult year. COVID-19

vaccines offer a degree of hope, but

are some way off, and it is our feeling

that we are not quite out of the

woods yet.

We are conscious that while 2020

has been difficult, it could have been

much, much worse.

The extraordinary teamwork from

our army of over 6,000 Rymanians

and the goodwill of our 12,000

residents and their many thousands

of family members have kept

everyone safe.

Our investors, our banks and our

thousands of business partners have

also been supportive in our battle to

keep everyone safe.

They have understood that we put

people first, they have been flexible

and willing to help, and all of this has

been a huge support to us.

So too has the support of our many

loyal shareholders – thank you all.

Rest assured, we think there is huge

potential in this special company, and

much more progress to come.

COVID-19
The outbreak of COVID-19, declared by

the World Health Organization as a global

pandemic on 11 March 2020, has resulted in

an increase in uncertainty in both global and

local markets.

Both New Zealand and Australia have

responded well to the virus with strong public

health measures and a range of economic

stimulus packages. However, despite the

response, there remains uncertainty as to

the ongoing impact of the virus on market

conditions in New Zealand and Australia.

Victoria has been through two waves of

infection and corresponding lockdowns,

succeeding in reducing the spread of infection,

and New Zealand has responded with localised

increases in alert level to supress transmission

of the virus.

Throughout the pandemic the Group’s primary

focus has been to protect the safety of both

residents and staff. When necessary access

restrictions have been put in place at villages,

additional personal protective equipment

has been procured for staff, and other costs

incurred in supporting residents and staff.

Under lockdown conditions the ability of new

residents to enter villages is limited, meaning

fewer sales can be settled, and the restrictions

at development sites results in construction

activity being reduced. The Group continues to

adapt its policies and procedures to operate in

the conditions created by COVID-19.

The Group has assessed the impact of

COVID-19 and has concluded that additional

uncertainty regarding the valuation of

property, plant and equipment and valuation

of investment properties has resulted from the

pandemic. Further disclosure as to the impact

of COVID-19 is included in note 3.

The Group made a claim under the

New Zealand COVID-19 Wage Subsidy

scheme. The claim was made on a subsidiary-

by-subsidiary basis with not all subsidiaries

meeting the eligibility criteria of the scheme. As

a result of the claim, the Group received a total

subsidy of $14.2 million. The income received

under the scheme has been offset against

operating expenses.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT

Balance at end of financial period6,277,0685,423,8135,760,060

The realised fair-value movement arises from the sale and resale of rights to occupy to residents.

Investment properties are not depreciated and are fair valued.

The carrying value of completed investment property is the fair value as determined by an

independent valuation report prepared by registered valuers CBRE Limited, at 30 September 2020.

Uncertainty due to COVID-19

The valuation of investment properties performed by CBRE Limited at 30 September 2020 is based

on the information available to them at the time of the valuation and relies on several inputs.

Given the current situation with COVID-19 there is an increase in the estimation uncertainty in

determining the fair value of investment property at 30 September 2020 compared to previous years.

The material valuation uncertainty included within the New Zealand valuation at 31 March 2020 has

been removed. This has been replaced with CBRE commenting on market uncertainty within their

New Zealand valuation. The material valuation uncertainty included in the valuation of the villages

located in Victoria at 31 March 2020 remains in the valuation at 30 September 2020.

3. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES (CONTINUED)
Notes to the consolidated interim financial statements

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020

Given the heightened uncertainty and unknown impact that COVID-19 may have on real estate

markets in the future, a higher degree of caution should be exercised when relying upon the

valuation. Values and incomes may change more rapidly and significantly than during standard

market conditions.

Comparable transactions and market evidence has been limited during the pandemic and CBRE

have placed less reliance on previous market evidence for comparison purposes.

To reflect this uncertainty CBRE Limited adjusted their assumptions on recycle frequencies for

independent units at mature villages, near-term house price inflation for independent units, and

discount rates in their valuation at 31 March 2020. As the level of uncertainty has decreased and

markets have become more accustom to operating under COVID-19 conditions, CBRE have reversed

some of the adjustments in determining the valuation at 30 September 2020. Near-term growth-rate

assumptions remain reduced when compared to valuations performed pre-Pandemic.

Key assumptions

The valuer used significant assumptions that include long-term house-price inflation (ranging from

0 percent to 4.05 percent nominal) (30 September 2019: 0.5 percent to 3.5 percent and 31 March

2020: -2.0 percent to 3.5 percent) and discount rate (ranging from 12 percent to 16 percent)

(30 September 2019: 12 percent to 16 percent and 31 March 2020: 12.25 percent to 16.25 percent).

Work in progress

Investment property includes investment property work in progress of $645.6 million (six months

ended 30 September 2019: $318.9 million and year ended 31 March 2020: $508.2 million), which

has been valued at cost.

4. OCCUPANCY ADVANCES (NON-INTEREST BEARING)

Gross occupancy advances are non-interest bearing.

5. DIVIDEND

On 20 November 2020 an interim dividend of 8.8 cents per share was declared and will be

paid on 18 December 2020 (prior year: 11.5 cents per share). The record date for entitlements

is 11 December 2020.

6. SHARE CAPITAL

Issued and paid-up capital consists of 500,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (30 September

2019: 500,000,000 and 31 March 2020: 500,000,000). All shares rank equally in all respects.

Basic and diluted earnings and net tangible assets per share have been calculated on the basis

of 500,000,000 ordinary shares (30 September 2019: 500,000,000 and 31 March 2020:

500,000,000 shares).

Shares purchased on market under the leadership share scheme are treated as treasury stock until

vesting to the employee.

7. TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES

Trade payables are typically paid within 30 days of invoice date or the 20th of the month following

the invoice date. Other payables at 30 September 2020 includes $69.3 million (30 September

2019: $105.4 million and 31 March 2020: $102.4 million) for the purchase of land.

8. OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Ryman Group operates in one industry, being the provision of integrated retirement villages

for older people in New Zealand and Australia.

In presenting information based on geographical areas, net profit, underlying profit, and revenue

are based on the geographical location of operations. Assets are based on the geographical

location of the assets.

HALF YEAR REPORT 2020

23

Underlying profit is a non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measure and
differs from NZ IFRS profit for the period. Underlying profit does not have a standardised meaning

prescribed by GAAP and so may not be comparable to similar financial information presented by

other entities. The Group uses underlying profit, with other measures, to measure performance.

Underlying profit is a measure that the Group uses consistently across reporting periods.

Underlying profit excludes deferred taxation, taxation expense, and unrealised movement on

investment properties because these items do not reflect the trading performance of the Company.

Underlying profit determines the dividend pay-out to shareholders.

9. COMMITMENTS

The Group had commitments relating to construction contracts amounting to $211.9 million at

30 September 2020 (30 September 2019: $147.4 million and 31 March 2020: $200.9 million).

The Group has an ongoing commitment for maintaining the land and buildings of the integrated

retirement villages, resthomes, and hospitals.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Other than the dividends in note 5, there are no subsequent events.
