UNAUDITED FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2021

Log exports lead growth at Napier Port

Napier Port (NZX.NPH) today reports improved revenue and earnings for the third quarter and for the

nine months ended 30 June 2021, as the resilience and diversity of its trade portfolio continues to

mitigate the effect of container shipping disruptions caused by the ongoing effects of the COVID-19

pandemic.

Revenue growth has been driven by increases in bulk cargo volumes, in particular, strong log exports.


HIGHLIGHTS

Third Quarter to 30 June 2021

• Revenue for the third quarter rose 25.3% to $30.4 million from $24.3 million in the same

period last year

• Bulk cargo revenue increased $4.3 million, or 67.4%, to $10.6 million driven by a 75.6%

increase in log exports to 0.82 million tonnes

• Container services revenue rose 10.5% to $19.1 million from $17.3 million, as container

volumes increased 8.3% to 80,000 TEU

• The result from operating activities

increase in log exports to 2.24 million tonnes

• Container services revenue rose 4.1% to $50.2 million from $48.2 million, as container

volumes increased 2.8% to 215,000 TEU

• Nil cruise revenue in the current year compared to $4.2 million last year

initiatives

• Reported net profit after tax increased 0.7% to $18.4 million

cargo

FINANCIAL RESULTS


Third quarter revenue rose 25.3% to $30.4 million from $24.3 million in the same period last year.

Revenue for the nine months increased 8.4% to $83.0 million from $76.6 million last year.


Container services


Container services revenue for the quarter of $19.1 million rose 10.5% from $17.3 million in the same

period last year. For the nine months, container services revenue increased by 4.1% to $50.2 million

from $48.2 million due to improved average revenue per twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU), and higher

container volumes.


Average revenue per TEU for the nine months increased 1.2% to $233 from $230 in the same period

last year, as full and reefer containers dwelling on port for longer periods – due to shipping schedule

disruptions – offset fewer container vessel calls.


Container volumes for the quarter increased 8.3% to 80K TEU due to increased volumes of wood pulp

and timber exported and empty containers that were repositioned to Napier Port later than the prior year.


However, volumes continued to be disrupted by unreliable shipping schedules and shipping capacity

constraints. Meanwhile, volumes in the prior comparative quarter were also depressed by the COVID-

19 Alert Level 4 lockdown when non-essential cargo ceased to enter Napier Port.


For the nine months, container volumes increased 2.8% to 215K TEU from 210K TEU in the same

period last year, primarily due to increased transhipment activity related to the supply chain disruptions.

These volumes were underpinned by meat, fresh and other fresh and chilled produce trades offsetting

slightly weaker exports of pip fruit.


Bulk cargo

Bulk cargo revenues for the quarter of $10.6 million increased 67.4% from $6.3 million in the same

period last year. For the nine months, bulk cargo revenues rose 38.1% to $30.8 million from $22.3 million

as volumes increased 29.7% to 2.9 million tonnes from 2.2 million tonnes in the same period a year ago.

Log export volume increased by 36.1% to 2.2 million tonnes from 1.6 million tonnes for the nine-month

period due to sustained strong log export market conditions. In the prior year period, bulk cargo volumes

were weakened by the cessation of forest harvesting during the COVID-19 Alert Level 4 lockdown

period.

Average revenue per tonne increased 6.5% to $10.67 from $10.02 in the same period last year. This

includes one-off cost recovery revenue of $0.29 per tonne and the remainder is as a result of log exports.

Operating results

The result from operating activities for the third quarter rose 37.4% to $12.8 million from $9.3 million.

For the nine months, the result from operating activities increased 9.8% to $34.1 million from $31.1

million due to 8.4% higher revenue, offset by a 7.5% increase in total operating expenses, the principal

components of which were increased insurance and employee benefit expenses.

Underlying net profit after tax for the third quarter, after adjusting for non-recurring reported net gains,

increased by 55.5% to $6.7 million from $4.3 million in the same period last year. For the nine months

this increased by 11.7% to $17.2 million from $15.4 million.




Reported net profit after tax for the nine months increased 0.7% from $18.3 million to $18.4 million. The

current year result benefited from a $1.2 million revaluation of investment property. The prior year

benefited from a one-off tax benefit of $1.5 million due to the reinstatement of tax depreciation on

commercial buildings and the $2 million receipt of the government’s COVID-19 wage subsidy (which

was subsequently repaid in the fourth quarter of the 2020 financial year).

Chair Alasdair MacLeod said: “Napier Port is benefiting from the strength of New Zealand’s primary

sector economy. In particular, our region is proving resilient and we are proud to play our part in

connecting our customers to the world.

“Our customers continue to face supply chain disruption in containerised trades due to changing

shipping schedules, difficulties securing shipping capacity and empty container supply, with increased

freight rates and shipping charges being widely felt.

“Our results in the third quarter and the nine-month period benefited from strong offshore demand for

New Zealand forest products and a resilient performance of our region’s other main exports. This has

offset supply chain pressures and the absence of cruise ship visits due to the pandemic.

“Our results also reflect the talent of our team and their commitment to our customers. Despite the

considerable challenges to containerised trade and the constraints on operational space due to the

construction of 6 Wharf, our people have kept cargo flowing across our wharves for the benefit of New

Zealand. We are grateful for their efforts.”

Chief Executive Todd Dawson said: “We are very pleased with the performance of Napier Port for the

year to date in what has been very challenging conditions. Missing container ship calls – 15 in the last

three months – and a lack of schedule integrity resulting in the flow-on disruption to supply chains is

now a feature of the New Zealand supply chain.

“We do not see signs of this supply chain disruption abating in the immediate future. The challenge

before Napier Port is to work with our customers to minimise the impact on their businesses by

leveraging the expertise of our team and strong relationships we have forged in recent years.

“I am very proud of the progress we have made on our strategic initiatives – particularly over the last

quarter, which is our traditional peak export season. The commitment of our team to understanding our

customers’ needs and their work to deliver high levels of service and solutions has been tremendous.

“The trade outlook for the remainder of this year is positive, with strong demand for our region’s forest

products. Meanwhile, apple volumes have only slightly decreased which reflects the industry’s hard

work in mitigating the effects of seasonal labour shortages and shipping challenges. We welcome the

government’s recent decision to allow increased numbers of seasonal workers from some Pacific

nations in time for next season’s harvest.

“We continue to invest in building our capability and capacity for the future, including the development

of our long-term infrastructure investment, 6 Wharf. Construction of this multi-generational asset

continues to be on time and on budget. We have recently celebrated the effective completion of the

piling part of the construction programme consisting of drilling and placing nearly 400 piles. We expect

the new wharf to go live in late 2022, and detailed operational planning for its use is well under way.”


BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURE


Over the nine-month period Napier Port has invested $76.3 million in capital assets, further progressing

its strategic infrastructure development programme, led by the 6 Wharf development project.

Napier Port ended June 2021 with drawn bank debt of $60.0 million, having commenced drawing on our

banking facilities earlier in the current financial year to fund the 6 Wharf development. In addition, we

have undrawn bank facilities of $120 million.




EARNINGS GUIDANCE AND OUTLOOK


Mr Dawson said the challenges to container-based supply chains from regional and global shipping

disruptions are continuing to overhang the free flow of cargo.


“The re-emergence of COVID-19 into New Zealand’s community is an unwelcome development and a

situation that is evolving daily. The impact on Napier Port will depend on how this situation develops,

the government’s response, and the effect these factors have on the businesses of our cargo customers.

Napier Port’s focus will remain on keeping its people and community safe and maintaining our ability to

operate to support our economy. As a result of the current lockdown, we expect to see some reduced

cargo volume due to non-essential businesses ceasing or limiting their operations, however at this time

we are unable to estimate the impact of this.


“We continue to expect an underlying result from operating activities for the year to 30 September

2021 of between $39 million to $42 million.


“Looking forward, we have seen some early market signals suggesting Chinese log market prices may

be moderating. In addition, log exporters continue to experience higher shipping costs which is

negatively affecting the economics of this trade and which both have an influence on the volume of

exported logs from New Zealand,” Mr Dawson said.

“As expected, cruise ship visits are unlikely to resume for the coming cruise season, which traditionally

commences in October and extends through the summer.

6 / NAPIER PORT – TE HERENGA WAKA O AHURIRI

NAPIER PORT HOLDINGS LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1 REPORTING ENTITY

The interim financial statements presented are those

of Napier Port Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries

(together “the Group”). Napier Port Holdings Limited

is incorporated under the Companies Act 1993

and domiciled in New Zealand. Napier Port Holdings

Limited’s shares are publicly traded on the New Zealand

Stock Exchange (NZX).

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

The interim financial statements have been prepared

in accordance with New Zealand equivalents to

International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial

Reporting (NZ IAS 34), and International Accounting

Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The Group

is a for-profit entity for NZ GAAP purposes. These

interim financial statements do not include all the

information normally included in an annual financial report.

Accordingly, these should be read in conjunction with

the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended

30 September 2020.

BASIS OF MEASUREMENT

The interim financial statements have been prepared

on a historical cost basis, except for sea defences,

investment properties and derivative financial instruments,

which are measured at fair value. They are presented

in New Zealand Dollars (NZD) and all values are

rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000), unless

otherwise stated.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies adopted are consistent

with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s

consolidated financial statements for the year ended

30 September 2020.

4 UNCERTAINTIES, ESTIMATES

AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity

with NZ IAS 34 requires management to make judgements,

estimates and assumptions that affect the application

of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,

liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ

from these estimates.

In preparing these financial statements, the significant

judgements made by management in applying the Group’s

accounting policies and the key sources of estimation

and uncertainty, are consistent with those applied to

the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year

ended 30 September 2020.

5 RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR

PERIOD COMPARATIVES

OPERATING EXPENSE RECLASSIFICATION

The Group has changed the classification of operating

expenses within the consolidated income statement

to provide more relevant information for users.

Maintenance expenses have been replaced by property

and plant expenses. Employee benefit expenses, property

and plant expenses, and other operating expenses for

the nine months ended 30 June 2020 have been

restated on a comparable basis resulting in $2.3 million

of previously disclosed other operating expenses being

reclassified to property and plant expenses, and

$0.9 million being reclassified to employee benefit

expenses for the nine months ended 30 June 2020.

IMPAIRMENT OF PROPERTY, PLANT

AND EQUIPMENT ASSETS

In the consolidated financial statements for the

full year ended 30 September 2020 the Group

impaired certain property, plant and equipment assets

that will be disposed of as part of the construction

of 6 Wharf. For the current reporting period, prior period

comparatives for the nine months ended 30 June 2020

have therefore been restated to reflect this impairment.

The restated comparatives incorporate the impairment

of property, plant and equipment assets in the amount

of $6.3 million. Of this amount, the impairment of site

assets of $0.6 million has been included in depreciation,

amortisation and impairment expenses, and the associated

tax benefit of $0.2 million in income tax expense, within

the consolidated income statement. The impairment

of sea defence assets of $5.8 million, with the

associated tax effect of $0.7 million, has been included

in the revaluation reserve within equity and included

in the statement of comprehensive income. There is

no restatement required to the consolidated financial

statements for the full year ended 30 September 2020.

port services and cargo handling infrastructure through Napier Port. Within the Port Services reportable segment

the following operating segments have been identified: marine services, general cargo services, container services,

port pack services and depot services. These have been aggregated on the basis of similarities in economic

characteristics, customers, nature of services and risks.

The Group operates in one geographic area, that being New Zealand. During the period the Group had

Supplemental Selected Financial Information (unaudited)

The below supplemental selected financial information provides a summary of financial information for

the nine months ended 30 June 2021 (9M2021) compared to the corresponding period in 2020

(9M2020).

Except where information is denoted as being extracted directly from audited financial statements, the

supplemental selected financial information is unaudited.


Notes:

1.

The selected financial information (excluding any financial information in the selected financial information table that is identified as

being underlying financial information) is extracted from unaudited financial statements of Napier Port Holdings for 9M2021. Some

line items in the selected financial information include adjustments applied by Napier Port (denoted ‘underlying’). An explanation of

these adjustments is contained in section 1.1 below.

2.

Revenue relates to operating income as disclosed in the financial statements for Napier Port.

3.

Result from operating activities is a non-NZ GAAP measure and is as disclosed in the financial statements for Napier Port. The

measure is calculated as operating income less operating expenses. The measure excludes income and expenses related to

depreciation, amortisation, impairment, and retirement of operating and other assets, income and expenses arising from fair value

changes, non-recurring and abnormal, and joint-venture and other investment activity.

4.

Underlying net profit after tax is a non-NZ GAAP measure that comprises reported net profit after tax adjusted for Initial Public

Offering (IPO) costs, the receipt of the Covid-19 wage subsidy and the impairment of certain assets relating to the construction of 6

Wharf as described in section 1.1 below. Tax expense has been adjusted to reflect the tax implications of the adjustments and the tax

benefit associated with the reinstatement of tax depreciation on buildings. A reconciliation to reported net profit after tax is included

in section 1.2 below.

5.

Underlying cash flows from operating activities is a non-NZ GAAP measure that comprises net cash flows from operating activities

1.1 Description of adjustments

In determining the use of adjustments, the Directors have considered only those items that they

believe are required to ensure consistency and comparability of the financial information over the

periods presented. The adjustments that Napier Port considers are appropriate are explained below:

(i) removal of the one-off transaction costs relating to the IPO;

(ii) removal of fair value movements as these are unrealised and non-core activity;

(iii) removal of the receipt of the government’s Covid-19 wage subsidy, which was

subsequently repaid in full;

(iv) removal of the impairment of joint venture as it was a one-off event;

(v) removal of the impairment of existing infrastructure assets arising as a result of the 6 Wharf

development. Certain existing seawall and paving assets are required to be removed in

order for the new 6 Wharf development assets to be constructed. The impairment expense

arising, recorded in the Income Statement, has been adjusted for given its unusual and

non-recurring nature; and

(vi) removal of the one-off deferred tax benefit relating to the reinstatement of tax depreciation

on commercial buildings.
