Earnings growth further reflected the Group’s focused management of operating expenses,

including the benefit of rent abatements, and approx. $15 million annualised restructuring and

synergy savings implemented during the onset of the COVID pandemic last financial year.

Overall, sales returned to pre-COVID levels, even though stores in airports, Australia, Hawaii, Asia,

were down 18.2% overall for the full year, and down 3.1% for the second half year.

Oboz continues to grow strongly, with sales growth driven by a successful product innovation

Gross margin was impacted by significant one-off air freight costs to support key customer deliveries

of winter seasonal styles in 1H FY21, plus increased ocean freight costs due to supply chain

congestion in 2H FY21. Gross margin is expected to normalise to historical levels when global

supply chain congestions and related shipping rates come back into line.


The forward order book is at its highest level ever, allowing investment to support future growth.

Strong balance sheet and resilient cash flows


The Group finished FY21 with a net cash position of $37 million, providing significant balance sheet

flexibility to manage any short-term COVID challenges, support growth investment, and consider

potential capital management options.


In addition to the strong balance sheet position, adjusted operating cash flows of $93 million in FY21

has enabled the Directors to declare a final dividend of 3.0 cents per share, fully franked for

Australian shareholders, and not imputed for New Zealand shareholders. The record date for this

dividend is 30 November 2021, and the payment date is 15 December 2021.



Sustainability is at the core


Commenting on the Group’s sustainability initiatives, Mr Daly said: “Our three brands are all about

outdoor activities and experiencing the environment around us. Sustainability is at the core of our

businesses.”


“In 2019, Kathmandu became the largest certified B Corporation in Australasia at the time, and in

2021 the Group committed to the largest syndicated sustainability linked loan in New Zealand. Rip

Curl has a wetsuit take-back program and is sourcing sustainable cotton, Kathmandu achieved

carbon zero certification, and Oboz has planted four million trees since its establishment.”


“We’re not slowing down and there’s a lot more we’re doing to cement our sustainability leadership

position going forward.”



Trading update & outlook


Same store sales (including online) for the six full weeks to 12 September 2021 were significantly

impacted by ongoing Australasian COVID lockdowns as follows:


• Rip Curl -12.8% overall; +3.6% adjusted for COVID lockdowns

3


• Kathmandu -19.9% overall; +18.3% adjusted for COVID lockdowns

3



These results include online sales growth to date of 25.9%, with Kathmandu sales in regions less

affected by COVID restrictions performing strongly. Rip Curl and Oboz wholesale order books are

now significantly above pre-COVID levels.


In addition to ongoing Australasian lockdowns, COVID restrictions are also impacting the Group’s

supply chain. Suppliers have reduced factory capacity due to enforced closures, and freight

congestion is leading to delivery delays and increased freight costs.


As a result, first half FY22 profit is expected to be below first half FY21.

Commenting on the outlook for the Group, Mr Daly said:


“Despite navigating the ongoing impacts from COVID, our brands are well positioned to capitalise on

growing participation in outdoor, beach and surfing activities. The rollout of COVID vaccinations

across the globe is opening up markets and countries again, presenting exciting opportunities for

our Group.”


“We will continue to invest in building our global brands, through brand advertising, sponsorship, and

sustainability initiatives, which include extending Kathmandu’s B Corp accreditation to all Group

brands and setting science-based targets.”


“We have a number of key initiatives planned to elevate our digital capabilities, including the launch

of Rip Curl loyalty, and the relaunch of Kathmandu Summit Club. We also plan to leverage

Kathmandu online platform enhancements to increase conversion, and increase the use of data

analytics and personalisation capability. We will also continue to invest in core systems and platform

upgrades in order to leverage operational excellence across our brands.”


“Rip Curl and Oboz wholesale order books are now significantly above pre-COVID levels. Rip Curl

and Kathmandu are generating like-for-like retail sales growth excluding COVID-impacts from store

closures. Online sales are continuing to grow for all three brands.”


“I’m excited by the platform we have in place to build a truly global house of brands to deliver

sustainable long-term growth for our team members, retail consumers, wholesale customers and

shareholders.”

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Section 1: Basis of Preparation








1.1 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 an FMC reporting entity under Part 7 of the Financial

Markets Conduct Act 2013. The address of its registered office is 223 Tuam Street, Central Christchurch, Christchurch.

The Company is listed on the NZX and ASX.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Part 7 of

the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and the NZX Listing Rules.

These audited consolidated financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 21

September 2021.

1.2 Summary of significant accounting policies

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting

Practice. They comply with the New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and

other applicable Financial Reporting Standards, as appropriate for for-profit entities. The consolidated financial

statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars, which is the Group’s presentation currency.

1.2.1 Basis of preparation

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are set out below.

These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements reported are for the consolidated Group, which is the economic entity comprising

Kathmandu Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries.

The Group is designated as a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained to the date on which control is lost.

Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identified net assets at the

acquisition date. Changes in the Group’s interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for

as equity transactions.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all material intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains

on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. When necessary,

amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform to the Group’s accounting policies.

Historical cost convention

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the

revaluation of certain assets as identified in the specific accounting policies provided below.

Critical accounting estimates

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by

definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing

a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.


In this section ...

This section sets out the Group’s accounting policies that relate to the consolidated financial statements

as a whole. Where an accounting policy is specific to one note, the policy is described in the note to

which it relates.

KATHMANDU HOLDINGS LIMITED – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2021

10


Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience as adjusted for current

market conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the

circumstances.

Further explanation as to estimates and assumptions made by the Group can be found in the following notes to the

consolidated financial statements:

Area of estimation Section

Taxation – provision for tax payable

2.3

Inventory – estimates of obsolescence

3.1.1

Trade and other receivables – allowance for lifetime expected credit losses

3.1.3

Goodwill and brand – assumptions underlying recoverable value

3.3

Leases – judgment applied to lease term

3.4

Business combinations – purchase price allocation

5.1



Foreign currency translation

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inflationary

economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation

currency as follows:

• Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that

balance sheet;

• Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates

(unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the

transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the

transactions); and

• All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign operations, and of

borrowings and other currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to shareholders’ equity.

Changes in accounting policies and prior period restatements

Details about changes in accounting policies applied during the period are included in the following notes to the financial

statements:

Selling and administrations expenses classification

During the year the Group identified an error in the surf segment’s classification of selling expenses and administration

and general expenses in the previously reported financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2020. As a result, the

prior period selling expenses have increased by $24,113,000 with a corresponding decrease in administration and

general expenses to align with the current year and the Group policy. The restatement has no impact on total

expenditure.

Consideration of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (‘IFRIC’) agenda decision

In April 2021, IFRIC issued an agenda decision clarifying its interpretation on how current accounting standards apply to

configuration and customisation costs incurred in implementing Software-as-a-Service (‘SaaS’) cloud computing

arrangements. The IFRIC decision has clarified that because SaaS arrangements are service contracts that provide the

Group with the right to access the cloud provider’s application software over the contract period, costs to configure or

customise this software should be recognised as operating expenses when the services are received.

The Group’s current accounting policy is to record these configuration and customisation costs as part of the cost of an

intangible asset and amortise these costs over the useful life of the software assets. The Group has commenced a

review process to quantify the impact of this agenda decision on the financial statements of the Group; however, given

the short timeframe and the complexity involved, this has not been finalised as at the date of this report.

It is anticipated that this exercise will be completed in the second quarter of the 2022 financial year. In the last three

years the Group has capitalised approximately $30 million in relation to cloud computing arrangements of which a subset

may relate to customisation and configuration of cloud solutions and may need to be reclassified to operating expense.

Once the impact has been fully quantified the Group will report the impact in its interim financial statements for the period

ended 31 January 2022.

1.3 Impact of COVID-19

COVID-19 continues to have an impact on the Group, with local and global restrictions on movement, travel and

gatherings resulting in a sustained reduction in footfall. Stores across our network continue to open and close based on

government mandated lockdowns and closures.

There continues to be uncertainties due to the COVID-19 pandemic that affects the Group’s key estimates and

judgements, including the following:

• Intangible assets – the ability to achieve future forecasts and the consequential impacts on the carrying value of

goodwill and other finite life intangible assets (note 3.3)

• Receivables – the ability of wholesale customers to pay (note 3.1.3)

• Leases – certain landlords have provided the Group with rent concessions (note 2.2)

Despite the continuing impact of COVID-19, the Directors are satisfied that there will be adequate cash flows generated

from operating and financing activities to meet the obligations of the Group for a period of at least 12 months from the

date of approving the consolidated financial statements. The Group was fully compliant with all banking covenants during

the year and, based on the current cash flow forecasts, the Group expects to remain compliant with all covenants for at

least 12 months from the date of approving the consolidated financial statements. To address any risk of extended store

closures across Australia and New Zealand into and beyond the key Christmas trading, the Group has worked

proactively with its banking syndicate to reduce the fixed cover charge ratio (FCCR) from 1.5x to 1.25x for the January

2022 measurement period.

Taking into consideration the current trading results, the net cash (excluding lease liabilities) of $37,017,000 and liquidity

of $329,729,000 at 31 July 2021 (refer note 4.1), the financial statements continue to be prepared on a going concern

basis.

Section 2: Results for the Year








2.1 Segment information

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities which earns revenue and incurs

expenses and where the chief decision maker reviews the operating results on a regular basis and makes decisions on

resource allocation.

The Group has three operating segments. These operating segments have been determined based on the reports

reviewed by the Group Chief Executive Officer and Group Executive Management team.

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 and the Ozmosis multi-brand retailer. This segment designs, manufactures,

wholesales and retails surfing equipment and apparel.

Corporate – this segment represents group costs, holding companies and consolidation eliminations and constitutes

other business activities that do not fall within outdoor or surf segments including goodwill, brand and customer

relationships.

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. EBITDA and EBIT are key measurement criteria on which operating segments are reviewed by the Group

Chief Executive Officer and Group Executive Management team.

Costs recharged between Group companies are calculated on an arms-length basis. The default basis of allocation is

percentage of revenue with other bases being used where appropriate.

2.2 Profit before tax

Revenue recognition

The Group recognises revenue from the sale of footwear, clothing and equipment for surfing and the outdoors and brand

licencing arrangements. Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of

goods and brand licences, excluding Goods and Services Tax and discounts, and after eliminating sales within the

Group.

Retail sales

For sales of goods to retail customers, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred, being at the

point the customer purchases the goods at a retail outlet. Payment of the transaction price is due immediately at the

point the customer purchases the goods.

Online sales

For online sales, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred to the customer, being at the point the

goods are delivered to the customer. Delivery occurs when the goods have been shipped to the customer’s specific

location. When the customer initially purchases the goods online, the transaction price received by the Group is

recognised as a contract liability until the goods have been delivered to the customer.

Wholesale sales

For sales to the wholesale market, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred, being when the

goods have been shipped to the wholesaler’s specific location (delivery). Following delivery, the wholesaler has full

discretion over the manner of distribution and price to sell the goods, has the primary responsibility when on selling the

goods and bears the risks of obsolescence and loss in relation to the goods. A receivable is recognised by the Group

when the goods are delivered to the wholesaler as this represents the point in time at which the right to consideration

becomes unconditional, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due.

KATHMANDU HOLDINGS LIMITED – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2021

14


Sales returns

Under the Group’s standard contract terms, customers have a right of return, typically within 30 days. At the point of sale,

a returns liability and a corresponding adjustment to revenue is recognised for those products expected to be returned.

The Group uses its accumulated historical experience to estimate the number of returns on a portfolio level using the

expected value method. It is considered highly probable that a significant reversal in the cumulative revenue recognised

will not occur given the consistent level of returns over previous years.

Royalty revenue

Royalty revenue from brand license arrangements is recognised based on a right to access the license. Revenue is

recognised over the contract period based on a fixed amount or reliable estimate of sales made by a licensee.

Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and that the

Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them. Government grants that compensate the Group for expenses

incurred are recognised as revenue in the statement of comprehensive income on a systematic basis in the same period

in which the expenses are recognised. In the current period Government grants relate to wage and other subsidies

received in response to the impact of COVID-19.

Government grants income recognised during the year includes $4,025,000 (2020: nil) in relation to US Paycheck

Protection Program loans as disclosed in note 4.1.

Government grants of nil (2020: $5,615,000) relating to the current year are receivable at balance date and have been

105,238 106,848

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 0.4% (2020: 0.5%) of the Group's entire lease payments. The variable

payments depend on sales and consequently on the overall economic development over the next few years. Considering

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 Group has adopted the practical expedient in paragraph 46A of NZ IFRS 16 and elected not to account for any rent

concessions granted as result of the COVID-19 pandemic as a lease modification. The amounts are recognised in profit

or loss due to changes in lease payments arising from such concessions, within the selling, administration, and general

expenses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The total cash outflow for leases amounts to $121,291,000 (2020: $96,191,000).

2.3 Taxation











Accounting policies

Current and deferred income tax

The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the consolidated statement of

comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly

in equity. In this case, the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated based on the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet

date in the countries where the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income.

Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax

regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate based on amounts expected to be

paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between tax bases of

assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income

tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business

combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax

liability is not recognised if it arises from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is determined using tax

rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply

when the related deferred income tax asset is realised, or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Keeping it simple ...

This section lays out the tax accounting policies, the current and deferred tax charges or credits in the

year (which together make up the total tax charge or credit in the consolidated statement of

comprehensive income), a reconciliation of profit before tax to the tax charge and the movements in

deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Group is subject to income taxes in multiple jurisdictions. As

result there is complexity and judgement involved in determining the worldwide provision for income

taxes.

KATHMANDU HOLDINGS LIMITED – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2021

16


Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available

against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing

of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will

not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets

against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by

the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to

settle the balances on a net basis.

Goods and Services Tax (GST)

The consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the consolidated statement of cash flows have been prepared

so that all components are stated exclusive of GST. All items in the consolidated balance sheet are stated net of GST,

except for receivables and payables, which include GST invoiced.

Taxation – Consolidated statement of comprehensive income

The total taxation charge in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is analysed as follows:

To understand how, in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, a tax charge of $12,278,000 (2020:

$13,632,000) arises on profit before income tax of $75,707,000 (2020: $22,500,000), the taxation charge that would arise

at the standard rate of New Zealand corporate tax is reconciled to the actual tax charge as follows:

Adjustments for prior periods primarily arise where an outcome is obtained on certain tax matters which differs from

expectations held when the related provision was made. Where the outcome is more favourable than the provision

made, the difference is released, lowering the current year tax charge. Where the outcome is less favourable than the

provision, an additional charge to the current year tax will occur.

During the year the Group recognised $9,578,000 of previously unrecognised Rip Curl US tax losses. The Group has

recognised these losses on the basis that the Rip Curl US profitability has improved significantly during the year, and it is

probable these losses will be utilised against future taxable profit in the US.

As a result of recognising the deferred tax losses the deferred tax asset at year-end of $13,977,000 is separately

disclosed in the consolidated balance sheet. For consistency the prior period deferred tax asset of $5,380,000 has also

been separately disclosed in the consolidated balance sheet. The deferred tax assets for the year ended 31 July 2020

was previously netted off in the deferred tax liability balance of $81,021,000.

The above amounts represent the balance of the imputation account as at 31 July 2021, adjusted for:

• Imputation credits that will arise from the payment of the amount of the provision for income tax.

• Imputation debits that will arise from the payment of dividends recognised as a liability at the reporting date.

• Imputation credits that will arise from the receipt of dividends recognised as receivables at the reporting date.

In the prior period tax payments of $6,808,000 had been financed at year end, which once transferred to the Inland

Revenue Department resulted in a positive imputation balance.

The Group has restated the prior year basic and diluted EPS to reflect the impact of finalisation of the Rip Curl purchase

price allocation as disclosed in note 5.1.


Keeping it simple ...

Earnings per share (‘EPS’) is the amount of post-tax profit attributable to each share.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit after tax attributable to equity holders of the Company of

$63,065,666 (2020: $8,133,582) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during

the year of 709,001,384 (2020: 493,346,733).

Diluted EPS reflects any commitments the Group has to issue shares in the future that would decrease

EPS. In the current year, these are in the form of share options / performance rights. To calculate the

impact, it is assumed that all share options are exercised / performance rights taken, and therefore,

adjusting the weighted average number of shares.

Section 3: Operating Assets and Liabilities















3.1 Working capital

3.1.1 Inventory

Accounting policies

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a weighted average cost

method and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and

condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production

overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course

of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. Inventory is considered in transit when the risk and rewards of

ownership have transferred to the Group.

The Group assesses the likely residual value of inventory. Stock provisions are recognised for inventory that is expected

to sell for less than cost, and for the value of inventory likely to have been lost to the business through shrinkage

between the date of the last applicable stocktake and balance sheet date. In recognising the provision for inventory,

judgement has been applied by considering a range of factors including historical results, stock shrinkage trends and

product lifecycle.

Inventory is broken down into trading stock and goods in transit below:

This section shows the assets used to generate the Group’s trading performance and the liabilities

incurred as a result. Liabilities relating to the Group’s financing activities are addressed in Section 4.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are shown in note 2.3.

Keeping it simple ...

Working capital represents the assets and liabilities the Group generates through its trading activity. The

Group therefore defines working capital as inventory, cash, trade and other receivables, other financial

assets, other current assets and trade and other payables and other financial liabilities.

3.1.3 Trade and other receivables

Accounting policies

Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at the value of the invoice sent to the customer (fair value) and

subsequently at the amounts considered recoverable (amortised cost). The collectability of trade and other receivables is

reviewed on an on-going basis.

An allowance for lifetime expected credit losses is recognised for trade and other receivables based on the Group’s

historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions, and an

assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date, including time value of

money where appropriate. The expected credit loss is estimated as the difference between all contractual cash flows that

are due to the Group in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted

at the original effective interest rate.

Trade and other receivables consist of a large number of customers spread across diverse geographical areas.

As at balance sheet date, trade and other receivables of $15,931,000 (2020: $27,495,000) were past due. A provision of

$5,680,000 (2020: $10,329,000) is held against these overdue amounts. Interest is charged on overdue debtors in some

instances.

Due to COVID-19 credit terms have been extended for some customers, which has impacted the aging analysis above.

The aging analysis disclosed is based on the original due dates agreed with customers, prior to any extension of credit

terms being offered.

In the current year $4,438,000 of long overdue receivables were written off. These receivables were acquired in the prior

period as part of the Rip Curl acquisition and were fully provided for prior to acquisition.

3.1.5 Other assets

Accounting policies

Other assets relate to rights of return assets. Rights of return recognises the estimated returned sales under the Group's

returns policies. Management estimates the returned sales based on historical sales return information and any recent

trends that may suggest future claims could differ from historical amounts. For sales that are expected to be returned, the

Group recognises a returns provision as disclosed in note 3.1.6. The associated inventory value for sales that are

expected to be returned is recognised as a right of return asset. The costs to recover the products are not material

because the customers usually return them in a saleable condition.

3.1.6 Trade and other payables

Accounting policies

Trade payables, sundry creditors and accruals principally comprise amounts outstanding for trade purchases and

ongoing costs. Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised

cost, using the effective interest method. The carrying value of trade payables is considered to approximate fair value as

amounts are unsecured and are usually paid by the 30th of the month following recognition.

Employee entitlements relates to benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, and

long service leave when it is probable that settlement will be required, and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at their nominal

values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. Provisions made in respect of employee

benefits which are not expected to be settled within 12 months are measured as the present value of the estimated future

cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date.

Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can

be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.

The warranties provision represents the present value of the estimated future outflow of economic benefits that will be

required under the Group’s obligations for warranties under local sale of goods legislation. The provision relates to

wetsuits, watches and footwear and is based on estimates made from historical warranty data associated with similar

products and services.

A restructuring provision is recognised when the Group has approved a detailed and formal restructuring plan, and the

restructuring has either commenced or has been announced publicly at balance date.

Lease restoration provision represents the present value of the estimated cost to restore leased properties to their

original condition upon expiry of the lease.

Where a customer has a right to return a product within a given period, the Group recognises a returns provision for the

consideration received that will be required to be refunded to customers on return of the product. The Group also

recognises a right to the returned goods as disclosed in note 3.1.5.

Other provisions relate to other miscellaneous amounts that meet the definition of a provision but do not fall into any of

the other categories.

3.2 Property, plant and equipment











Accounting policies

Property, plant and equipment

All property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes

expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Cost may also include transfers from equity of any

gains / losses on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment.

The assets’ residual value and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate at each balance sheet date.

Capital work in progress is not depreciated until available for use.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is

greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Depreciation

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using straight line and diminishing value methods to expense

the cost of the assets over their useful lives. The rates are as follows:

Buildings & leasehold improvements 5 – 50%

Office, plant and equipment 5 – 50%

Furniture and fittings 10 – 50%

Computer equipment 10 – 60%

Impairment of assets

Property, plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the

carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying

amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of

disposal and value in use.


Keeping it simple ...

The following section shows the physical assets used by the Group to operate the business, generating

revenues and profits. These assets include store and office fit-out, as well as equipment used in sales

and support activities.

Assets are recognised only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item

will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

3.3 Intangible assets










Accounting policies

Goodwill

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the

Group’s interest in the net fair value of the assets and liabilities of the acquiree. Separately recognised goodwill is tested

annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. It is

carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those

cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in

which the goodwill arose.

Brand

Acquired brands are carried at original cost based on independent valuation obtained at the date of acquisition. The

brand represents the price paid to acquire the rights to use the Kathmandu, Oboz or Rip Curl brand. The brand is not

amortised. Instead, the brand is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances

indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Customer relationships

Acquired customer relationships are carried at original cost based on independent valuation obtained at the date of

acquisition less accumulated amortisation. They are amortised on a straight-line basis over a useful life of 5-10 years.

The estimated useful life and amortisation period is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period.

Software costs

Software costs have a finite useful life. Software costs are capitalised and written off over the useful economic life.

Costs associated with developing or maintaining computer software programs are recognised as an expense when

incurred. Costs that are directly associated with the production of identifiable and unique software products controlled by

the Group, and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year, are recognised as

intangible assets. Direct costs include the costs of software development employees.

Software is amortised using straight-line and diminishing value methods at rates of 20-67%.

Refer to note 1.2.1 for further consideration in respect of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (‘IFRIC’) agenda decision

on configuration and customisation costs incurred in implementing Software-as-a-Service (‘SaaS’) cloud computing

arrangements.

Other intangibles

Other intangibles relate to lease rights expenditure associated with acquiring existing lease agreements for stores where

there is an active market for key money. They are carried at original cost less accumulated impairment losses. Other

intangibles have an indefinite useful life and are tested annually for impairment.

Keeping it simple ...

The following section shows the non-physical assets used by the Group to operate the business,

generating revenues and profits. These assets include brands, customer relationship, software

development and goodwill.

This section explains the accounting policies applied and the specific judgements and estimates made

by the Directors in arriving at the net book value of these assets.

Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may

not be recoverable. Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, including goodwill, are not subject to amortisation

and are tested annually for impairment irrespective of whether any circumstances identifying a possible impairment have

been identified. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its

recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in

use.

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately

identifiable cash flows e.g., cash generating units.

Impairment tests for goodwill and brand

The aggregate carrying amounts of goodwill and brand allocated to each unit for impairment testing are as follows:

276,401 281,759 350,127 357,123

For the purposes of goodwill and brand impairment testing, the Group operates as four groups of cash generating units,

Kathmandu New Zealand, Kathmandu Australia, Rip Curl and Oboz. The recoverable amount of each cash generating

unit (CGU) has been determined based on the fair value less cost of disposal (FVLCOD). Five-year projected cash flows

are used to determine the FVLCOD.

The discounted cash flow valuations were calculated using post tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets

prepared by management and approved by the Directors for the year ended 31 July 2022. Cash flows beyond July 2022

are based on three-year business plans presented to the Directors.

The key assumption used:

• The FVLCOD model assume continued COVID-19 disruption in the 2022 financial year and a return to more

normalised trading conditions previously experienced in 2023 and beyond. The Group believes the assumptions

used in cash flows reflect a combination of the Groups experience and uncertainty associated with COVID-19.

• While temporary store and market closures may impact short term results, these are not expected to impact the

long-term performance of each CGU. Several scenarios have been assessed where trading conditions do not

normalise until the 2024 financial year, in each scenario the fair value for the CGU exceeds the carrying value.

Other assumptions used:

The terminal growth rate assumption is based on a conservative estimate considering the current inflation targets and do

not exceed the historical long-term average growth rate for each CGU. Pre-tax discount rates are calculated based on a

market participant expected capital structure and cost of debt to derive a weighted average cost of capital.

The calculations confirmed that there was no impairment of goodwill and brand during the year (2020: nil). The Directors

believe that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions used in the calculations would not cause the

carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.

The expected continued promotion and marketing of the Kathmandu, Oboz and Rip Curl brands supports the assumption

that the brand has an indefinite life.

Capital commitments

Capital commitments contracted for at balance sheet date include intangible assets of $7,271,000 (2020: $709,000).

3.4 Leases









Accounting policies

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.


Keeping it simple ...

The following section shows the assets leased by the Group to operate the business, generating

revenues and profits. These assets include the lease of retail stores.

This section explains the accounting policies applied and the specific judgements and estimates made

by the Directors in arriving at the carrying value of these assets and the corresponding lease liability.

KATHMANDU HOLDINGS LIMITED – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2021

32


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 for property leases, including

expected rights of renewal, is 8 years (2020: 8 years). The average lease term for vehicle leases is 3 years (2020: 3

years).

Section 4: Capital Structure and Financing Costs















4.1 Interest bearing liabilities

Accounting policies

Interest bearing liabilities are the Group’s borrowings. Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction

costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of

transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income

over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the

liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

The table below separates borrowings into current and non-current liabilities:

Group Facility Agreement

The Group has a multi-option syndicated facility agreement, with a sustainability linked loan of A$100 million, a revolving

cash advance facility of A$115 million and NZ$24 million, trade finance sub-facilities of A$30 million and NZ$10 million,

and instruments sub-facilities of A$20 million and NZ$4 million. All facilities are repayable in full on 26 May 2024.

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 1.25%. The debt is secured by the assets of the

guaranteeing group in accordance with the Security Trust Deed dated 25 October 2019 as amended 26 May 2021.

The covenants entered into by the Group require specified calculations of Group earnings 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 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 as amended and restated on 26 May 2021. The Group has complied

with its banking covenants at all measurement points during the year.

The current interest rates, prior to hedging, on the term loans ranged between 0.95% - 1.05% (2020: 1% - 1.25%).

Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans

As part of the US government response to COVID-19 the Group’s US resident companies applied for Paycheck

Protection Program (PPP) loans of US$2,814,000 in the year ended 31 July 2020. The Group believes that these entities

met the criteria to qualify for the loans at the date of the application.

The PPP loan is initially received as a loan and once various criteria are met the Group is able to apply for forgiveness of

that loan. During the year, the Group has applied for and received forgiveness of the PPP loan for one of the US resident

entities and consequently a $669,000 gain was recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in

during the year.


In this section ...

This section outlines how the Group manages its capital structure and related financing costs, including

its balance sheet liquidity and access to capital markets.

Capital structure is how an entity finances its overall operations and growth by using different sources

of funds. The Directors determine and monitor the appropriate capital structure of the Group,

specifically how much is raised from shareholders (equity) and how much is borrowed from financial

institutions (debt) to finance the Group’s activities both now and in the future.

The Directors consider the Group’s capital structure and dividend policy at least twice a year ahead of

announcing results and do so in the context of its ability to continue as a going concern, to execute

strategy and to deliver its business plan.

KATHMANDU HOLDINGS LIMITED – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2021

35


The Group has also applied for forgiveness of the remaining PPP loan prior to balance date as it believes it has provided

all the necessary documents to support full forgiveness. This application has been reviewed and approved by the lender

and is in the final approval process with the US Small Business Association (SBA). Whilst the application is still being

processed the Group believe it has reasonable assurance that it has met the conditions for forgiveness. Accordingly, the

Group has recognised a further gain of $3,356,000 in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income during the

year.

The eligibility and forgiveness of the application being processed remains subject to a possible audit by the federal

government at which time the loan could be deemed not to be eligible. In the event of an unfavourable outcome of the

forgiveness application the group would be required to repay the PPP loan as well as 1% interest on that loan from the

period it was received until the date it was repaid.

Based on loan criteria and the steps taken by the Group above the balance of the PPP loan at 31 July 2021 is nil (2020:

$4,201,000).

4.2 Derivative financial instruments

















Accounting policies

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-

measured to their fair value. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is

designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group designates certain

derivatives as hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).

At inception of the hedging relationship, the Group documents the economic relationship between hedging instruments

and hedged items, including whether changes in the cash flows of the hedging instruments are expected to offset

changes in the cash flows of the hedged items. The Group also documents its risk management objectives and strategy

for undertaking its hedge transactions.

Cash flow hedge

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is

recognised in equity in the hedging reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately

in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Amounts accumulated in equity are recycled in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in the periods when

the hedged item will affect profit or loss. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition

of a non-financial asset (for example, inventory) or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in

equity are transferred from equity and included in the measurement of the initial cost or carrying amount of the asset or

liability.

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge

accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the

forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. When a forecast

transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately

transferred to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.


Keeping it simple ...

A derivative is a type of financial instrument typically used to manage risk. A derivative’s value

changes over time in response to underlying variables such as exchange rates or interest rates and is

entered into for a fixed period. A hedge is where a derivative is used to manage an underlying

exposure.

The Group is exposed to changes in interest rates on its borrowings and to changes in foreign

exchange rates on its foreign currency (largely USD) purchases. The Group uses derivatives to hedge

these underlying exposures.

Derivative financial instruments are initially included in the balance sheet at their fair value, either as

assets or liabilities, and are subsequently re-measured at fair value at each reporting date.

An interest rate swap is an instrument to exchange a fixed rate of interest for a floating rate, or vice

versa, or one type of floating rate for another.

Foreign currency transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates

of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the

translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are

recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, except when deferred in other comprehensive

income. Translation differences on monetary financial assets and liabilities are reported as part of the fair value gain or

loss.

The above table shows the Group’s financial derivative holdings at year end.

Interest rate swaps - cash flow hedge

Interest rate swaps are to exchange a floating rate of interest for a fixed rate of interest. The objective of the transaction

is to hedge the core floating rate borrowings of the business to minimise the impact of interest rate volatility within

acceptable levels of risk thereby limiting the volatility on the Group's financial results. The notional amount of interest rate

swaps at balance sheet date was nil (2020: $5,000,000). The fixed interest rate is nil (2020: 1.32%). Refer to note 4.1.3

for timing of contractual cash flows relating to interest rate swaps.

Foreign exchange contracts - cash flow hedge

The objective of these contracts is to hedge highly probable anticipated foreign currency purchases against currency

fluctuations. These contracts are timed to mature when import purchases are scheduled for payment. The notional

amount of foreign exchange contracts amounts to US$117,650,000 / NZ$164,706,000 (2020: US$114,460,000 /

NZ$179,803,000).

No material hedge ineffectiveness for interest rate swaps or foreign exchange contracts exists as at balance sheet date

(2020: nil).

Refer to note 4.2.1 for a sensitivity analysis of foreign exchange risk associated with derivative financial instruments.

4.2.1 Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that fluctuations in exchange rates will impact the Group’s financial performance. The

Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures,

primarily with respect to the AUD, USD and EUR.

Risk Exposure arising from Monitoring Management

Foreign exchange risk Foreign currency purchases Forecast purchases USD foreign exchange

(over 90% of purchases in USD) Reviewing exchange rate derivatives

movements



The Group is exposed to currency risk on any cash remitted between entities in different jurisdictions. The Group does

not hedge for such remittances. Interest on borrowings is denominated in either New Zealand dollars or Australian

dollars and is paid for out of surplus operating cashflows generated in New Zealand or Australia.

Summarised sensitivity analysis

The following table summarises the sensitivity of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities to foreign exchange

risk.

A sensitivity of -10% / +10% (2020: -10% / +10%) for foreign exchange risk has been selected. While it is unlikely that an

equal movement of the New Zealand dollar would be observed against all currencies, an overall sensitivity of -10% /

+10% (2020: -10% / +10%) is reasonable given the exchange rate volatility observed on a historic basis for the preceding

five-year period and market expectation for potential future movements.

Amounts are shown net of income tax. All variables other than applicable exchange rates are held constant. The impact

on equity is presented exclusive of the impact on retained earnings.

Section 5: Group Structure







5.1 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, wholesaler, 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 Group anchored by two iconic Australian brands and provides the opportunity for

Kathmandu to considerably diversify its geographic footprint, channels to market and seasonality profile.

The acquisition accounting fair value adjustments were on a provisional basis in the Group’s 31 July 2020 consolidated

financial statements. The acquisition accounting adjustments have now been finalised and updated to reflect

independent valuations performed on the net assets recognised on acquisition.

As a result, the following adjustments have been recognised in the finalised purchase price allocation; an increase in

other current assets of $2,803,000, a decrease in property, plant, and equipment of $2,253,000, an increase in the right

of use asset and lease liability of $1,161,000, an increase in trade and other payables of $6,158,000 and a

corresponding increase in goodwill $5,608,000. Finally, in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 July

2021 the Group has identified an error in the interim financial statements which has been corrected in these financial

statements. The nature of the error related to an overstatement of deferred tax by $454,000, understatement of current

tax by $2,208,000 and an understatement of goodwill by $1,754,000. The statement if comprehensive income and cash

flows remain unchanged.

The comparatives presented in these financial statements reflect these changes and the resultant cumulative impact as

at 31 July 2020 is $11,000.

5.3 Deed of Cross Guarantee

Pursuant to ASIC Corporations (wholly owned Companies) Instrument 2016/785, the Australian-incorporated wholly

owned subsidiaries listed in note 5.2 as parties to the Deed of Cross Guarantee are relived from the Corporations Act

2001 requirements for preparation, audit and lodgement of financial reports and directors’ reports in Australia.

It is a condition of the ASIC Corporations Instrument that the Company and each of the subsidiaries listed enter a Deed

of Cross Guarantee. The effect of the Deed is that each party guarantees to each creditor of each other party payment in

full of any debt in the event of winding up of the other party under certain provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. If a

winding up occurs under other provisions of the Act, the guarantee will only apply if after six months after a resolution or

order winding up any creditor has not been paid in full.

A consolidated statement of comprehensive income and balance sheet, comprising the Company and controlled entities,

which are parties to the Deed of Cross Guarantee, after eliminating all transactions between parties to the Deed of Cross

Guarantee, at 31 July 2021, are set out as follows:

6.2 Fair values

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 estimated based on current market rates available to the Group for debt of

similar maturity. The fair value of term liabilities equates to their current carrying value.

Foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps

The fair value of these instruments is determined using valuation techniques (as they are not traded in an active market).

These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as

possible on entity specific estimates.

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include the fair value of interest rate swaps. These are

calculated at the present value of the estimated future cash flows, based on observable yield curves and the fair value of

forward foreign exchange contracts, as determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date, with the

resulting value discounted back to present value.

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.

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 are approximately nil. All guarantees are payable on

demand.

6.3 Employee share-based remuneration

Accounting policy

Equity settled long term incentive plan

The Executive and Senior Management Long Term Incentive plan grants Group employee’s performance rights subject

to performance hurdles being met. The fair value of rights granted is recognised as an employee expense in the

consolidated statement of comprehensive income with a corresponding increase in the employee share-based payments

reserve. The fair value is measured at grant date and amortised over the vesting periods. The fair value of the rights

granted is measured using the Kathmandu Holdings Limited share price as at the grant date less the present value of the

dividends forecast to be paid prior to each vesting date. At each balance sheet date, the Company revises its estimates

of the number of shares expected to be distributed. It recognises the impact of the revision of original estimates, if any, in

the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, and a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining

vesting period.

Executive and Senior Management Long Term Incentive Plan

On 20 November 2013, shareholders approved at the Annual General Meeting the continuation of an Employee Long

Term Incentive Plan (LTI) (previously established 24 November 2010) to grant performance rights to Executive Directors,

Senior Managers, Other Key Management Personnel and Wider Leadership Management.

The percentage of the December 2020 EPS growth related rights scales according to the compound average annual

EPS growth over three years. Each year’s target is set annually, and an average is taken over the three years to

determine overall achievement. The EPS growth targets for financial year ended 31 July 2021 are as follows:

The fair values of the EPS rights have been assessed as the Kathmandu Holdings Limited share price as at the grant

date less the present value of the dividends forecast to be paid prior to each vesting date. The estimated fair value for

each tranche of options issued is amortised over the vesting period from the grant date.

Independent auditor’s report

To the shareholders of Kathmandu Holdings Limited

Our opinion

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Kathmandu Holdings Limited

(the Company), including its subsidiaries (the Group), present fairly, in all material respects, the

financial position of the Group as at 31 July 2021, its financial performance and its 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).

What we have audited

The Group's consolidated financial statements comprise:

● the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 July 2021;

● the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended;

● the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;

● the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and

● the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which include significant accounting policies

and other explanatory information.


Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs

(NZ)) and International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). 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.

Independence

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) (PES 1) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards

Board and the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International

Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA

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

Our firm carries out other services for the Group in the areas of assurance compliance engagement in

the respect of bank covenant compliance, agreed upon procedures for store turnover certificates and

tax advisory. The provision of these other services has not impaired our independence as auditor of

the Group.

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 year. 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.

PwC 55
Description of the key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Impairment testing over indefinite life

intangibles, including the impact of

COVID-19

The risk that the Group’s indefinite life

assets of $626.5 million may be materially

impaired is considered a Key Audit Matter,

due to the material nature of these assets

and the significant judgement exercised by

management to:

●assess the appropriate cash generating

units (CGU) to consider for testing;

●estimate the future results of the CGUs;

●include the ongoing impact of

COVID-19 on revenue and margins;

●allocate shared costs to CGUs; and

●assess the discount rates and terminal

growth rates.

As disclosed in note 3.3, the Group

assessed the recoverable amount of each

CGU as at 31 July 2021 using discounted

cash flow valuations on a fair value less

cost of disposal (FVLCOD) basis.

For all CGUs management performed their

own calculation of the WACC as well as

the discounted cash flows computation and

related sensitivity analysis.

Based on the calculations performed for

each CGU, the Group concluded that there

was no impairment of goodwill and brand

as at 31 July 2021.

The key assumptions used in the

impairment testing have been disclosed in

note 3.3.

Our audit procedures in assessing the indefinite life

intangible assets cover all brands and goodwill. For

each CGU we:

●obtained an understanding of the processes and

controls in place for assessing the recoverability of

indefinite life intangibles and confirmed their

implementation at year end;

●reviewed management’s assessment of CGUs and

compared this to our knowledge and understanding

of the Group’s operations and reporting structure;

●obtained the calculations performed by

management and understood the assumptions

used in light of the current and forecast outlook for

the business;

●used our auditor’s expert to independently review

the discount and long-term growth rates;

●assessed the reasonableness of management's

cash flow assumptions by considering external

market forecasts, historical performance and other

available information;

●considered the allocation of shared costs to each

CGU;

●performed look back analysis to test the historical

accuracy of management forecasts and performed

sensitivity testing for each CGU; and

●audited the disclosures in the financial statements

to ensure they are compliant with the requirements

of the relevant accounting standards.

PwC 56
Description of the key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Inventory existence and valuation

including the impact of COVID-19

At 31 July 2021, the Group held inventories

of $216.5 million. Inventory valuation and

existence was an audit focus area due to

the number of locations that the inventory

was held at, the judgement applied in the

valuation of inventory on hand, and the

continued uncertainty presented by

COVID-19 related travel restrictions.

As described in note 3.1.1 of the

consolidated financial statements,

inventories are carried at the lower of cost

and net realisable value on a weighted

average basis.

The Group has systems and processes,

including a barcode inventory management

system, to accurately record inventory

movements.

Management typically perform full

stocktakes at each store twice a year, with

annual full stocktakes taking place at Rip

Curl distribution centres.

Daily cycle counts are performed at the

Kathmandu New Zealand and Australian

distribution centres. For Rip Curl US and

Oboz management keep stock at third

party warehouses who provide inventory

management services.

There are a number of judgements applied

in assessing the level of provision for

inventory obsolescence and inventory

shrinkage losses. Management provide for

shrinkage based on historical inventory

counts and stocktake shrinkage trends.

In responding to the risk over inventory existence and

valuation at year end, we:

●observed the stocktake process at selected store

locations and undertook our own test counts;

●attended the year end distribution centre count

and performed independent test counts for Rip

Curl;

●observed the daily stocktake process at the

Christchurch and Melbourne Kathmandu

distribution centres and undertook our own test

counts. We also tested that the daily counts

occurred by selecting a sample of days at each

location and inspected the count records

throughout the year;

●confirmed the level of inventory held at year end

directly with third party warehouses for inventory

in the United States;

●assessed the inventory shrinkage provision by

reviewing the level of inventory write downs during

the period. We tested the shrinkage rate used to

calculate the provision for each store since the last

stocktake by comparing it to the actual shrinkage

rate in prior periods;

●evaluated the assumptions made by management,

and particularly the key assumption that current

shrinkage levels are consistent with historical

levels in assessing inventory obsolescence

provisions, through an analysis of inventory items

by category and age and the level of inventory

write downs in these categories during the period,

including any potential impact of COVID-19; and

●tested that inventory on hand at the end of the

period was recorded at the lower of cost and net

realisable value by testing a sample of inventory

items to the most recent retail price which includes

any impact of COVID-19.

PwC 57
Our audit approach

Overview

Overall group materiality: $3.6 million, which represents

approximately 5% of profit before tax.

We chose profit before tax as the benchmark because, in our view, it

is the benchmark against which the performance of the Group is

most commonly measured by users, and is a generally accepted

benchmark.

Full scope audits were performed for 8 of 24 entities in the Group

based on their financial or operational significance; and

Specified audit procedures and analytical review procedures were

performed on the remaining entities.

As reported above, we have two key audit matters, being:

●Impairment testing over indefinite life intangibles, including the

impact of COVID-19

●Inventory and existence and valuation including the impact of

COVID-19

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material

misstatement in the consolidated financial statements. In particular, we considered where

management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates

that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all

of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among

other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material

misstatement due to fraud.

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain

reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material

misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if,

individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of

users taken on the basis of the consolidated financial statements.

Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality,

including the overall Group materiality for the consolidated financial statements as a whole as set out

above. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit,

the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both

individually and in aggregate, on the consolidated financial statements as a whole.

How we tailored our group audit scope

We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an

opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the

Group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group operates.

PwC 58
Other information

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the

information included in the Annual report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements

and our auditor's report thereon. The Annual report is expected to 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 will

not express any form of audit opinion or assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the

other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent

with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise

appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the other information not yet received, if we conclude that there is a material

misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to the Directors and use our

professional judgement to determine the appropriate action to take.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated financial statements

The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Company, 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 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 (NZ) and ISAs will always

detect a material misstatement when it 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.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements is

located at the External Reporting Board’s website at:

https://www.xrb.govt.nz/assurance-standards/auditors-responsibilities/audit-report-1/
