A brief explanation of any of the

figures above necessary to enable

the figures to be understood

Underlying profit is a non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting

Principles) measure and differs from NZ IFRS profit for the year.

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 includes realised movement on investment

property for units in which a right-to-occupy has been sold during

the period and for which a legally binding contract is in place at the

reporting date. The occupancy advance for these units may have

been received or be included within the trade receivables balance at

reporting date.

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

losses on non-trading assets because these items do not reflect the

trading performance of the Company. Underlying profit determines

the dividend pay-out to shareholders.

MEDIA RELEASE May 21, 2021

Ryman reports audited full year underlying profit of $224.4 million

Key points:

• Audited underlying profit $224.4 million, 7.3% down due to COVID-19 challenges

• Audited reported (IFRS) profit increased 59.8% to $423.1 million, due to investment

property revaluations

• Final dividend of 13.6 cents, taking the full year dividend to 22.4 cents per share, 50%

of underlying profit.

• Ryman has returned more than $1.03 billion to shareholders since it listed in 1999,

when it raised $25 million

• Record final quarter new sales and resales as market recovers

• Total assets of $9.17 billion, up 19.5%

• Continued strong demand for aged care in New Zealand and Victoria, mature care

occupancy at 97%

• Only 1.4% of resale units unsold at the end of March

• Five villages opened in Victoria by December 2020

• Three new sites purchased, one in Melbourne and two in New Zealand

• No cases of COVID-19 to date among 12,500 residents and 6,100 staff across New

Zealand and Victoria



Ryman Healthcare has reported a full year underlying profit of $224.4 million, with a second

half recovery driven by record sales.

Audited reported (IFRS) profit, which includes unrealised fair value gains on investment

property, increased 60% to $423.1 million in the year to March 31, 2021.

Shareholders will receive a final dividend of 13.6 cents per share, taking the total dividend

for the year to 22.4 cents per share, which is 50% of underlying profit. The record date for

entitlements is June 4, and the dividend will be paid on June 18, 2021.

Chief Executive Gordon MacLeod said transactions and building activity had recovered after

a challenging first half due to COVID-19.

“We bore the brunt of the COVID-19 lockdowns in the first half. In the final quarter we

achieved record new sales and resales, which was no mean feat after a tough year.’’

“I couldn’t be more proud of how the team has performed – not only to keep COVID-19

out of all of our villages and keep everyone safe – but also to power through and keep on

innovating, developing and growing,’’ Mr MacLeod said.

Ryman Healthcare Ltd, 92 Russley Rd, Avonhead, Christchurch 8140

In December Ryman achieved its long-term target of having five villages open in Victoria by

the end of 2020, and Ryman has another six villages in the pipeline in Australia.

Ryman has bought new village sites at Essendon in Melbourne, and at Karaka and Cambridge

in New Zealand. Ryman has sold its Coburg site in Melbourne after opting to buy a more

attractive site in nearby Essendon.

Approval was received to build new villages at Ringwood East in Melbourne, Northwood in

Christchurch and two Auckland villages at Takapuna and Kohimarama.

Ryman’s total assets grew by 19.5% during the year. The company has diversified $825

million of debt funding.

A NZ$150 million retail bond issue in New Zealand, a US$300 million USPP private debt

placement and an A$250 million institutional term loan were all oversubscribed, Mr

MacLeod said.

“The debt issuances allowed us to take our plans to a wider audience of funders and we

were delighted with the response. We ended the year with a stronger balance sheet, and

new diversified long-term debt funding with weighted average tenor of nine years with

plenty of headroom.

“We have had record cash collections of $1.18 billion during the year to support our largest

ever building programme, and we are planning to have 14 villages under construction, seven

in Australia and seven in New Zealand later this year.

Ryman’s integrated villages and high-quality care continued to be in strong demand, with

care occupancy in established villages running at 97%.

Only 1.4% of Ryman’s portfolio was available for resale at March 31, down from 1.9% at

September 30, 2020. Ryman built 736 new beds and units during the year.

Chairman Dr David Kerr said a highlight was the response to the COVID-19 vaccine

rollout, with both residents and staff jumping at the chance to get vaccinated.

“Getting vaccinated is the best thing anyone can do to keep themselves and their loved ones

safe,’’ Dr Kerr said.

“We’re achieving care resident vaccine rates above 95%, which is really pleasing.’’

“Our villages are safe havens for older people where they can expect to live well and with

the best of care on hand if they need it. The COVID pandemic has made this security about

the future top of mind for older people, and we expect demand will continue to grow.’’

Ryman’s development pipeline of 25 new villages would provide homes for more than 6,800

residents and would generate anticipated capital proceeds of $5.3 billion with recurring

income of $420 million, subject to market conditions and consenting outcomes.

“With the vaccine rollout in full swing and huge potential in our pipeline of new villages,

we’ve put ourselves in a tremendous position for the years ahead,’’ Dr Kerr said.

Ryman will have returned more than $1.03 billion to shareholders since listing in 1999 after

its next dividend is paid on June 18. In 1999 Ryman raised $25 million from investors.

RYMAN HEALTHCARE LIMITED

Selected notes to the consolidated financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2021



1. Summary of Accounting Policies

Ryman Healthcare Limited is a profit-oriented entity incorporated in New Zealand and develops, owns, and

operates integrated retirement villages, resthomes, and hospitals for the elderly within New Zealand and

Australia.


Ryman Healthcare Limited is a Financial Markets Conduct Act reporting entity under the Financial Reporting

Act 2013 and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. Its financial statements comply with these Acts.


The company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries comprise the Ryman Group (the Group).


Basis of preparation


These financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 have been extracted from the audited annual

Group financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 and have been prepared to satisfy the Group’s

NZX reporting obligations.


The audited financial statements have been prepared under the same accounting policies and basis as those

used in the prior year’s interim and annual financial statements.


The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 20 May 2021.


The information is presented in thousands of New Zealand dollars.


Adopting new and amended standards and interpretations


In the current year, the Group adopted all mandatory new and amended standards and interpretations.


We are not aware of any NZ IFRS Standards or Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended

that have not yet been adopted by the Group that would materially impact the Group for the annual report

period ending 31 March 2021.


COVID-19


The outbreak of COVID-19, declared by the World Health Organization as a global pandemic on

11 March 2020, 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. In 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 (note 3) and valuation of investment properties (note 4) has

resulted from the pandemic. Further disclosure as to the impact of COVID-19 is included in the relevant

notes.

RYMAN HEALTHCARE LIMITED

Selected notes to the consolidated financial statements (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2021



3. Property, plant and equipment

All completed resthomes and hospitals included within the definition of freehold land and buildings were

revalued to fair value based on an independent valuation report prepared by registered valuers, CBRE

Limited, at 31 March 2021, in line with NZ IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement. These revaluations are

undertaken every 2 years, unless there is sustained market evidence of a significant change in fair value.


The valuers used multiple valuation techniques to estimate and determine fair value. The valuer made key

assumptions that include capitalisation of earnings (using capitalisation rates ranging from 11.0 percent to

15.0 percent), together with observed transactional evidence of the market value per care bed (ranging

from $70,000 to $230,000 per care bed).


As the valuer uses several valuation techniques a significant decrease in the capitalisation rate could but may

not necessarily result in a significantly higher fair-value measurement. Conversely, a significant increase in

the capitalisation rate could but may not necessarily result in a significantly lower fair-value measurement.


A significant increase in the market value per care bed could but may not necessarily result in a significantly

higher fair-value measurement. Conversely, a significant decrease in the market value per care bed could

but may not necessarily result in a significantly lower fair-value measurement.


Uncertainty due to COVID-19


The valuation of completed resthomes and hospitals performed by CBRE Limited at 31 March 2021 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 completed resthomes and hospitals at 31 March 2021 compared to previous

valuations.


CBRE comment that the ultimate economic impact COVID-19 will have on the aged care sector is

unknown and will depend on both the scale and longevity of the pandemic, future outbreaks, and the lock

down responses of the Governments in New Zealand, Victoria and Australia.


Given the heightened uncertainty and unknown impact that COVID-19 may have 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.


Occupancy in the Group’s mature aged-care facilities has not been impacted by COVID-19.


Disposal of land


During the year, the Group sold the land in Coburg, Melbourne. The sale led to a loss on disposal of $15.1

million which has been recognised in the income statement.

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. As the fair value of investment property is

determined using inputs that are unobservable, the Group has categorised investment property as Level 3

under the fair-value hierarchy in line with NZ IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement.


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 31 March 2021. This report combines

discounted future cash flows and occupancy advances received from residents for retirement-village units

that are complete or nearing completion, for which there is an unconditional agreement to occupy.


Uncertainty due to COVID-19


The valuation of investment properties performed by CBRE Limited at 31 March 2021 is based on the

information available to them at the time of the valuation and relies on several inputs, as outlined below.


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

the fair value of investment property at 31 March 2021 compared to previous years.


The material valuation uncertainty within the New Zealand and Australian valuations at 31 March 2020 has

been removed. This has been replaced with CBRE commenting on higher than normal market uncertainty

within their valuations.


Given the heightened uncertainty and unknown impact that COVID-19 may have 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.

Selected notes to the consolidated financial statements (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2021



4. Investment properties (continued)

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 31 March 2021.


Key assumptions


The valuer used significant assumptions that include house-price inflation (ranging from 0.5 percent to 4.20

percent nominal) (2020: -2.0 percent to 3.5 percent) and discount rate (ranging from 12.00 percent to 16.50

percent) (2020: 12.25 percent to 16.25 percent).


Sensitivity


A 0.5 percent decrease in the discount rate would result in a $91.3 million higher fair-value measurement.

Conversely, a 0.5 percent increase in the discount rate would result in a $85.3 million lower fair-value

measurement.

A 0.5 percent decrease in the 5-year plus growth rate would result in a $168.7 million lower fair-value

measurement. Conversely, a 0.5 percent increase in the 5-year plus growth rate would result in a

$140.8 million higher fair-value measurement.

Other inputs used in the fair-value measurement of the Group’s investment property portfolio include the

average age of residents and the occupancy period.

A significant increase in the average age of entry of residents or the long-term nominal house-price inflation

rate would result in a significantly higher fair-value measurement. Conversely, a significant decrease in the

average age of entry of residents or the long-term nominal house-price inflation rate would result in a

significantly lower fair-value measurement.


Work in progress


Investment property includes investment property work in progress of $653.0 million (2020: $508.2 million),

which has been valued at cost. For work in progress cost represents fair value.

record date for entitlements is 4 June 2021.



7. Share capital

Issued and paid-up capital consists of 500,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (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 (2020: 500,000,000 shares).

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

the employee.



8. Commitments

The Group had commitments relating to construction contracts amounting to $180.6 million at

31 March 2021 (2020: $200.9 million).

MEDIA RELEASE May 21, 2021

Ryman reports audited full year underlying profit of $224.4 million

Key points:

• Audited underlying profit $224.4 million, 7.3% down due to COVID-19 challenges

• Audited reported (IFRS) profit increased 59.8% to $423.1 million, due to investment

property revaluations

• Final dividend of 13.6 cents, taking the full year dividend to 22.4 cents per share, 50%

of underlying profit.

• Ryman has returned more than $1.03 billion to shareholders since it listed in 1999,

when it raised $25 million

• Record final quarter new sales and resales as market recovers

• Total assets of $9.17 billion, up 19.5%

• Continued strong demand for aged care in New Zealand and Victoria, mature care

occupancy at 97%

• Only 1.4% of resale units unsold at the end of March

• Five villages opened in Victoria by December 2020

• Three new sites purchased, one in Melbourne and two in New Zealand

• No cases of COVID-19 to date among 12,500 residents and 6,100 staff across New

Zealand and Victoria



Ryman Healthcare has reported a full year underlying profit of $224.4 million, with a second

half recovery driven by record sales.

Audited reported (IFRS) profit, which includes unrealised fair value gains on investment

property, increased 60% to $423.1 million in the year to March 31, 2021.

Shareholders will receive a final dividend of 13.6 cents per share, taking the total dividend

for the year to 22.4 cents per share, which is 50% of underlying profit. The record date for

entitlements is June 4, and the dividend will be paid on June 18, 2021.

Chief Executive Gordon MacLeod said transactions and building activity had recovered after

a challenging first half due to COVID-19.

“We bore the brunt of the COVID-19 lockdowns in the first half. In the final quarter we

achieved record new sales and resales, which was no mean feat after a tough year.’’

“I couldn’t be more proud of how the team has performed – not only to keep COVID-19

out of all of our villages and keep everyone safe – but also to power through and keep on

innovating, developing and growing,’’ Mr MacLeod said.

Ryman Healthcare Ltd, 92 Russley Rd, Avonhead, Christchurch 8140

In December Ryman achieved its long-term target of having five villages open in Victoria by

the end of 2020, and Ryman has another six villages in the pipeline in Australia.

Ryman has bought new village sites at Essendon in Melbourne, and at Karaka and Cambridge

in New Zealand. Ryman has sold its Coburg site in Melbourne after opting to buy a more

attractive site in nearby Essendon.

Approval was received to build new villages at Ringwood East in Melbourne, Northwood in

Christchurch and two Auckland villages at Takapuna and Kohimarama.

Ryman’s total assets grew by 19.5% during the year. The company has diversified $825

million of debt funding.

A NZ$150 million retail bond issue in New Zealand, a US$300 million USPP private debt

placement and an A$250 million institutional term loan were all oversubscribed, Mr

MacLeod said.

“The debt issuances allowed us to take our plans to a wider audience of funders and we

were delighted with the response. We ended the year with a stronger balance sheet, and

new diversified long-term debt funding with weighted average tenor of nine years with

plenty of headroom.

“We have had record cash collections of $1.18 billion during the year to support our largest

ever building programme, and we are planning to have 14 villages under construction, seven

in Australia and seven in New Zealand later this year.

Ryman’s integrated villages and high-quality care continued to be in strong demand, with

care occupancy in established villages running at 97%.

Only 1.4% of Ryman’s portfolio was available for resale at March 31, down from 1.9% at

September 30, 2020. Ryman built 736 new beds and units during the year.

Chairman Dr David Kerr said a highlight was the response to the COVID-19 vaccine

rollout, with both residents and staff jumping at the chance to get vaccinated.

“Getting vaccinated is the best thing anyone can do to keep themselves and their loved ones

safe,’’ Dr Kerr said.

“We’re achieving care resident vaccine rates above 95%, which is really pleasing.’’

“Our villages are safe havens for older people where they can expect to live well and with

the best of care on hand if they need it. The COVID pandemic has made this security about

the future top of mind for older people, and we expect demand will continue to grow.’’

Ryman’s development pipeline of 25 new villages would provide homes for more than 6,800

residents and would generate anticipated capital proceeds of $5.3 billion with recurring

income of $420 million, subject to market conditions and consenting outcomes.

“With the vaccine rollout in full swing and huge potential in our pipeline of new villages,

we’ve put ourselves in a tremendous position for the years ahead,’’ Dr Kerr said.

Ryman will have returned more than $1.03 billion to shareholders since listing in 1999 after

its next dividend is paid on June 18. In 1999 Ryman raised $25 million from investors.

Underlying profit is a non-GAAP* measure and differs from NZ IFRS profit for the year. 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 includes realised movement on investment property for units in which a right-to-occupy has been sold during the period

and for which a legally binding contract is in place at the reporting date. The occupancy advance for these units may have been received or be

included within the trade receivables balance at reporting date.


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

non-trading assets because these items do not reflect the trading performance of the Company. Underlying profit determines the dividend

payout to shareholders.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Shareholders of Ryman Healthcare Limited

Opinion We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Ryman Healthcare Limited and its subsidiaries (the

‘Group’), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 March 2021, and the consolidated income

statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for

the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant

accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements, on pages 1 to 49, present fairly, in all

material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2021, and its consolidated

financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to

International Financial Reporting Standards (‘NZ IFRS’) and International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’).

Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (‘ISAs’) and International

Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (‘ISAs (NZ)’). Our responsibilities under those standards are further

described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our

report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our

opinion.

We are independent of the Group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 International Code of

Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (including International Independence Standards) (New Zealand) issued by the

New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the International Ethics Standards Board for

Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence

Standards), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

Our firm carries out an assurance engagement for the Group relating to Australian aged care. These services

have not impaired our independence as auditor of the Company and Group.

In addition to this, partners and employees of our firm deal with the Company and its subsidiaries on normal

terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries. The

firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Audit materiality


We consider materiality primarily in terms of the magnitude of misstatement in the financial statements of the

Group that in our judgement would make it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable

person would be changed or influenced (the ‘quantitative’ materiality).

In addition, we also assess whether other matters that come to our attention during the audit would in our

judgement change or influence the decisions of such a person (the ‘qualitative’ materiality). We use materiality

both in planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work.

We determined materiality for the Group financial statements as a whole to be $17.5m.

Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit

of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of

our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not

provide a separate opinion on these matters.



Valuation of investment properties How our audit addressed the key audit matter

As explained in policy (f) and note 7 in the consolidated financial

statements, investment properties are carried at fair value on the

consolidated balance sheet. The fair value was determined by

independent registered valuers appointed by the Group.

These properties were valued at $6,837m (2020: $5,760m). The

revaluation gain recognised in the consolidated income statement was

$417m (2020: $144m).

We include the valuation of investment properties as a key audit matter

for two reasons:

1. The significance to the financial statements:

The investment properties account for 75% of the total assets (2020:

75%), making it the most significant balance on the balance sheet.

2. The complexity of the valuation model:

The valuation model is complex and combines discounted future cash

flows and occupancy advances received from residents. The valuation

relies on various estimates and underlying assumptions, including

current unit pricing, discount rates, long term house price inflation and

the occupancy periods of residents. A small percentage difference in

certain input assumptions could result in a material change to the

valuation.


















Our procedures focused on:

• The appropriateness of the valuation methodology


• The reasonableness of underlying assumptions in the valuation

model.

Our procedures included, amongst others:

• Evaluating the Group’s processes for the independent valuation of

the investment properties


• Reading the valuation reports for properties within the group and

reviewing the valuation methodology and the reasonableness of

the significant underlying assumptions


• Discussing with management the nature of key assumptions


• Assessing the competence, objectivity, and integrity of the

independent registered valuers. We assessed their professional

qualifications and experience. We also obtained representation

from them about their independence and the scope of their work


• Meeting with the valuers to understand the valuation process

adopted. The purpose of the meeting was to identify and

challenge the critical judgment areas in the valuation model and to

confirm the valuation approach was in accordance with NZ IFRS 13

Fair Value Measurement. We specifically discussed the impact of

COVID-19 with the valuers and critically challenged the changes

made to key assumptions and their reasonableness relative to the

31 March 2020 valuation


• Using our in-house valuation specialists to assess the

appropriateness of the valuation methodology and challenge the

reasonableness of the underlying assumptions. Our specialists

focused on the appropriateness of the valuation methodology, as

well as assumptions for current unit pricing, long term house price

inflation and discount rates


• Agreeing a sample of sales and resales to contracts, recalculating

actual growth rates on resales to compare to growth applied by

the valuer, and recalculating the average tenure of residents based

on a sample of contracts to compare to assumed occupancy

periods applied by the valuer


• Comparing a sample of current unit market values determined by

the valuer to actual prices received at comparable units within the

village


• Assessing the discount rates for reasonableness by comparing the

rates to those adopted in the previous year and the rates adopted

by comparable entities, challenging the adjustments made to take

into account the changing impacts of COVID-19


• Considering the appropriateness of the disclosures in note 7









Other information


The directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the other information. The other information comprises

the information in the Annual Report that accompanies the consolidated financial statements and the audit

report. The Annual Report will be made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not

express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether it is materially inconsistent with the

consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially

misstated. If so, we are required to report that fact.

When we read the other information in the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement

therein, we are required to communicate the matter to the directors and consider further appropriate actions.

Directors’ responsibilities for the

consolidated financial statements

The directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the preparation and fair presentation of the

consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ IFRS and IFRS, and for such internal control as the

directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free

from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for

assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going

concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group

or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit

of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a

whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report

that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an

audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and ISAs (NZ) will always detect a material misstatement when it

Valuation of care-facility land and buildings How our audit addressed the key audit matter

As explained in policy (d) and note 6 in the consolidated financial

statements, care facility land and buildings are carried at their fair

value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated

depreciation and impairment losses.

The fair value was determined by independent registered valuers

appointed by the Group.

The net book value of care facility land and buildings as reflected in

note 6 is $955m (2020: $711m). The revaluation gain recognised in

other comprehensive income was $196m (2020: $nil).

We included the valuation of care-facility land and buildings as a key

audit matter for two reasons:

1. The materiality of the account balance, and the revaluation

movements.

2. The complexity of the valuation model:

The valuation model includes both observable and non-

observable inputs. It uses significant assumptions, including the

determination of the earnings that were capitalised, the

capitalisation rates adopted, and the assessment of the market

value per care bed. These inputs require significant judgement.


Our procedures focused on:

• the appropriateness of the valuation methodology

• the reasonableness of underlying assumptions in the valuation model.

Our procedures included, amongst others:

• Evaluating the Group’s processes regarding the independent

valuation of the care facility land and buildings


• Reviewing the valuation methodology and the reasonableness of

the significant valuation assumptions


• Assessing the competence, objectivity, and integrity of the

independent registered valuers. We assessed their professional

qualifications and experience. We also obtained representation

from them about their independence and the scope of their work


• Meeting with the valuers to understand the valuation process

adopted. The purpose of the meeting was to identify and

challenge the critical judgement areas in the valuation model and

to confirm the valuation approach was in accordance with NZ IFRS

13 Fair Value Measurement. We specifically discussed the impact

of COVID-19 with the valuers and critically challenged any related

adjustments made to key assumptions and their reasonableness


• Using our in-house valuation specialists to assess the

appropriateness of the valuation methodology and challenge the

reasonableness of the underlying assumptions. Our specialists

focused on the assumptions for earnings capitalisation rates


• Assessing the reasonableness of the capitalisation rates and

market value per care bed adopted in the valuation


• Agreeing, on a sample basis, the earnings capitalised to the

underlying accounting records and challenging the valuers on the

adjustments made to actual earnings in arriving at the earnings

used in the valuation


• Considering the appropriateness of the disclosures in note 6



exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the

aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the

basis of these consolidated financial statements.
